Volume 1: The Beginner's First Cry Chapter 25 New Challenges
Thinking back on the conversation with Xiao Lajiao just now, I have to say that I did have some quick wit. Maybe it's because birds of a feather flock together. I've heard a lot of sweet words from Afeng, and I've remembered a lot of them. I may not be able to say them to people I'm not familiar with, but they are perfect for dealing with Xiao Lajiao.
However, thinking about his own strength, he felt much heavier. He lacked effective means of attack and had poor attack capability. The "fire phosphorus bomb" had no effect at all against wild boars with thick skin and high defense. He was far inferior to Afeng and Xiao Lajiao. He could only bluff and play the role of luring the enemy. It seemed that the only thing he could rely on was the "summoning of the undead". Only by relying on the human wave tactics could he be qualified to deal with others.
After entering the "Dead Space", I was busy again, increasing the number of my brothers to ninety-three. It's not that I didn't try hard, but the success rate of the "Soul Contract" was too low. Even if those skeleton warriors were unable to resist, I still had to spend time and mental energy to click on them one by one .
Because I have already registered in Qinglong City, the place where I resurrected this time is within the jurisdiction of Qinglong City . If I want to resurrect in other cities, I just need to transfer my household registration to that city. In Tianxia, household registration can be moved at will without any restrictions. Even wanted criminals enjoy such treatment, but they need to withstand the pursuit of patrolling soldiers and other players in the city and rush into the mercenary guild in the center of the city to apply for transfer of household registration, which is basically a death sentence.
I rushed to the Mercenary Guild in Qinglong City and received the reward for this mission: a Peacock Feather and 5% of the seniority points. Completing missions means increasing your seniority quickly. After completing a two-star mission, I was rewarded with 5% of the seniority points. I worked so hard for more than a day and only gained 3% of my seniority points, and most of them were obtained in the "Dead Space". Isn't this forcing people to work for the Mercenary Guild?
But this mission is too abnormal, it is not easy to complete. Even if I am a thief with "one horse and one dust", how can the three of Afeng carry out such a difficult task? Not only do you have to avoid being bitten by wild boars, but you also have to let the wild boars follow you. Without the cooperation of the four of us, you will definitely not be a match for the five wild boars in a head-on battle. If I take the mission alone, I have to trouble a group of people to help. I have to take all the benefits by myself. I am really embarrassed to do such a mission again.
We enjoyed the scenery along the way, then strolled to the door of Qinglong Restaurant to meet Afeng, and then waited together for Xiao Lajiao to arrive. Without this rich lady paying the bill, the two of us would not be able to enter such a high-consumption place.
Because we have exchanged business cards, the four of us have added each other as friends. In the information column, we can display each other's name, occupation, level and online status , and can also communicate with each other directly. The strange thing is that Xiao La Jiao and Nan Fei Yan are obviously online, but we can't wait. When we contact them, they just ask us to wait patiently for a while. I really don't know what they are busy with. This woman is so troublesome!
Fortunately, there were people from all countries coming in and out, wearing all kinds of strange clothes, and there were many beautiful girls and hot girls, laughing and talking as they passed by us, so we didn't feel too lonely just by admiring them. After a long while, we saw Xiao La Jiao and Nan Fei Yan rushing over.
We went in and found a private room to sit down. I took out the colorful peacock feather and handed it to Xiao Lajiao. It was really beautiful. No wonder Xiao Lajiao liked it so much. Women are naturally unable to resist beautiful things. This was my confirmed experience after accompanying Xiao Lajiao shopping for a few days.
Xiao Lajiao grabbed it and admired it with Nan Feiyan for a long time before putting it away reluctantly. Looking at her expression, if there was no hat with good attributes, she would have put peacock feathers on it to make it more beautiful. Of course, she didn't forget to thank me. In fact, she deserved it. Not only did she give me and Afeng a set of equipment, but she also helped a lot. If it weren't for her and Nan Feiyan, I would definitely not be able to complete this task.
After having a good meal and drinking, Little Pepper stuck her head over and said mysteriously, "We have successfully completed the wild boar mission. Is everyone free for the time being?"
Seeing that Afeng and I both nodded, Xiao Lajiao became even more excited, "In this case, let's keep working hard and take on new challenges. How about going to the Heluo grassland to kill lions?"
"Puff", the tea that Afeng and I just drank was sprayed out. What, lion-slaying? We heard it right, right? He could barely handle a few wild boars, and he still wanted to tease the lion. Isn't this just thinking that his life is too long and he wants to die.
Afeng and I looked at each other and understood each other's meaning. Looking at Xiao Lajiao who was excitedly planning to kill the lion, we were both a little hesitant to speak, but in order to avoid making a meaningless sacrifice for our precious lives, we had to bite the bullet and go ahead.
"Well, Little Pepper, you have to know that although we killed five wild boars, this was mainly due to some luck. Our overall strength, well, to be honest, is still slightly inferior to those five wild boars. And you should also know some common sense. Lions are much more powerful than stupid wild boars, and I heard that they move in groups. If we rashly provoke them, we will die a very ugly death." Relying on the fact that I had just saved Little Pepper's life, I spoke first, trying to use more tactful words to express my refusal.
A Feng also added, "Yes, Xiao La Jiao, the three of us are better because we are all veteran players. But Ah Dai has just started playing the game, so his combat skills are relatively poor. He has died three times in just over a day. If he faces the lion, he will definitely be in danger."
This kid is really cunning. He is obviously afraid of death, but he speaks as if it is all for my sake. However, this is the time when we should unite against the enemy, not to hinder him. "Yes, you see my skills are not very useful, and they have no attack power. Besides, lions run much faster than wild boars, and the trick of luring the enemy will not work. It's a pity that I finally became a human again. Can you let me breathe a few more fresh air?"
Little Pepper stared with a pair of innocent big eyes and said in a low voice: "But, I have promised Sister Xue that I will complete this task with them."
Sister Xue, when did another inexplicable Sister Xue appear? Of course, we don't care about Xiao Lajiao's personal relationship, but why did she drag Xiao Lajiao to die? What's even more unacceptable is that she also wants to take our two brothers to be buried with her.
I turned my head to Nan Feiyan on the side. She was the only one who was closest to Xiao Lajiao here, and she was also older. She should be more sensible than Xiao Lajiao. She should at least say a few words to dispel Xiao Lajiao's "suicidal" horrible idea. Life is precious, we should all cherish it, and we should never spoil her too much and let her do whatever she wants.
Nan Feiyan understood what I meant, but she smiled bitterly and shook her head slowly. "I don't know much about this matter either. Everything was decided by Little Lajiao. You all know her personality. Once she makes up her mind, no one can persuade her. I'm so sorry to have caused you trouble again."
I shook my head helplessly and gave up the effort to seek help. Yes, if Little Pepper was willing to listen to others' advice, she would not be the impulsive Little Pepper who often did shocking things. But things still need to be clarified. We must die with a clear understanding.
Afeng was still trying his last bit of effort, using his eloquent tongue to try to persuade Xiao Lajiao, but judging from the expressions of both parties, it was to little avail. "Xiao Lajiao, what is going on? Can you explain it to us from beginning to end? This is slaughtering a lion, not as simple as killing chickens and dogs." I interrupted their meaningless conversation.
"Sister Xue's name is Xue Wuxia. She is very nice and beautiful. I met her when I first entered Tianxia. We went to Qinglong City together and got along very well on the way. When we arrived in the city, we both changed our jobs to shooters. She helped me a lot. Later, I went to see Sister Feiyan and we separated. As soon as I came online just now, she was eager to find me. After we met, she asked me to join her to do the lion-slaying mission and go to the Heluo grassland to kill a group of lions. This is an open mission of the mercenary guild. Sister Xue wanted to find ten people to participate, but they only had six people, so she called me. I thought that we just happened to have four people, so we decided to participate together. It would be more lively with more people!"
Oh my god, they didn't even ask for my and Afeng's opinions, they just decided for us, open missions, a kind of random free missions with a relatively high difficulty in the mercenary guild's mission system, there is no limit on the level of the participants, and it is not included in the assessment scope of the world card. The rewards obtained are extremely generous compared to general missions, but the risks are also high. The mercenary guild's evaluation of such missions is "be prepared to die at any time." Who exactly is this sister Xue? Ten players with only level one professions challenged a group of lions, which was obviously to die. Should we call her an idiot or a lunatic?
