Seven Stars Central City, Brave Guild, Three Eyes Research Institute.
“Your hero name is really bad, it’s unrecognizable~
The photos are also bad. Let me take you to take some photo albums~ I guarantee they will look much better than yours! "
The hot black girl Pink Kodachi laughed at Luke mercilessly, and then extended an invitation, reaching out to hug Luke's arm.
"Don't you have to go to school at this time?"
Facing the hot black girl who had put on the mountain bastard mask again, Luke's mood was already simple and he asked directly.
However, when this girl asked him to take a cute photo of ET with his chin poking her eyes, Luke couldn't help but tremble.
Just imagining it is scary.
"No, it's just a formality to get a diploma anyway."
Hearing Luke mention school, the hot black girl immediately said with disapproval.
"Then let me ask you, what degree of water will you get if you pour 4 cups of 25-degree water together?"
"Meow haha~~Of course it's 100 degrees! You still want to stump me with such a simple primary school student question!? What a dream!"
"...I think it's still necessary to go to school, what do you think?"
Facing the arrogant black hotties, Luke could only look helplessly at the others around him.
The few brave men who were not familiar with the black hot girl did not comment on this, but as his best friend, Joey only felt embarrassed and quickly stepped forward and pulled the black hot girl back with her nose turned up.
The people currently gathering at the Sanmu Research Institute are the brave men who had experience fighting side by side with Luke and Sanmu in the monster lair. Sanmu invited them and Luke in as an external mission.
As an E-class idler, if Luke didn't want to expose his ability to find potions and items in exchange for money, he would have no choice but to accept commissions and complete tasks.
And from Luke's point of view, he himself is very eager to kill monsters and upgrade Roar equipment, potions, and so on.
It was as if the journey to Contra had completely activated his nature as a player and the fourth natural disaster.
As a brave man who is half a member of the guild and whose own status is not low, Sanmu naturally has higher authority to help select some more cost-effective tasks.
The tasks of the Brave Guild are diverse and cover a wide range of areas. While there are highly dangerous wanted bounties and monster lair processing tasks, there are also daily tasks ranging from trivial things to picking flowers and walking dogs. It has a very strong "guerrilla association" "style.
Those daily tasks where monster experience cannot be obtained are obviously not suitable for Luke, and he has never thought of becoming a good friend of his neighbors.
The wanted bounty is relatively difficult for Luke now, because it is a battle of wits and courage with people. People are often much more cunning and dangerous than monsters, let alone the fallen who can be wanted. It is a group with a large number of anti-social personalities who will do whatever is beneficial to themselves and go all out to kill those who are chasing them.
If it simply involves the life and death of the pursuer and the wanted person, it would be simple, but in fact the situation the pursuer has to face is quite complicated.
You may even have to face the classic decision-making problem of preserving your size.
Cleaning up monster lairs is the most suitable for Luke, and it is also Luke's favorite type. But the problem is that Qixing City is a typical area with more wolves and less meat, and has a large number of E-level and D-level residents.
The central urban area plus the surrounding large and small gathering areas cover a very large area, which is quite a challenge for traveling.
Once a new monster lair is spawned in a certain area, the nearby "idle workers" will inevitably arrive at the scene immediately. By the time Luke receives the information and rushes over, the day lily will probably be cold...
Of course, there is a premise here, that is, the new monster lair must still be like the past, a small lair that can be quickly cleaned up, and cannot be a complete large lair with eight large areas like the previous one.
Therefore, after screening, what is suitable for Luke now is the kind of monster lair that is under the control of a brave guild or some large brave team organization and is specially used to produce resources.
Monsters are indeed antagonistic to humans, but they sometimes become useful resources to humans.
Even if monster props are not dropped, some of the things they naturally carry when they are refreshed, the corpses left when they die, and even some interactive scenes in the lair can be recycled and reused as resources, just like before Sanmu took apart the Kestrel firearms that could not be used directly and assembled them to create a green-skinned self-destructing gun.
Since there is no way to completely eliminate monsters from this world, we must find a way to turn their existence into resources and turn them into guns and cannons to deal with them.
Human beings are so adaptable.
At this time, after assessing the danger of the monster's lair, humans will confirm that the resource output and crisis burden are within the tolerable range, and will deliberately not destroy the monster's lair, allowing it to refresh the monsters and harvest them until The lair core is consumed.
For example, there are bomb villains who carry bombs that can be recycled into circulating precious metal gold, slimes that are limp but whose corpses can be used as excellent raw materials for soft gels, cosmetics, etc., and various animal-type monsters with tender flesh. , are all very good resources available.
Most monster lairs with controllable dangers like this will also come with an additional service of "brave training" as long as they do not involve particularly sensitive resources.
To put it bluntly, it is to allow heroes or reserve heroes who are inexperienced in fighting monsters to practice courage, skills and actual combat when there are thugs to control the situation.
And when this type of market was established, it was natural that some monster lairs that did not produce additional resources and existed purely as a training ground for braves appeared on the market.
This is where Luke is going to study next.
Just after the discussion between Luke and Sanmu, they came to a common conclusion, that is, rather than rushing to face the monsters like a true E-class hero, Luke himself actually needs more interaction with various monsters. combat experience.
Luke is still the kind of guy who can look at himself more objectively. He knows very well where his current weakest point is.
That's melee combat!
Although Luke seems to have successfully broken through the psychological barriers he has always had in Contra and is no longer afraid of bloody conflicts with people. Even the scepter can hit the head of a monster insect, but skills and experience It's still a mess.
Again, I can do without it, but I can't live without it.
This sentence can also be applied to melee combat ability. Luke really does not want to engage in melee combat, but he knows better that he must have a certain degree of melee combat ability.
You must find ways to make up for your weak points, otherwise you will be targeted by others in the future.
Compared to rigid training, Sanmu is obviously more inclined to let Luke learn something by himself through actual combat. With his physical fitness that can jump seven or eight meters, it feels like he will be blind if he doesn't learn some self-defense moves.
In addition, you need to get in touch with various types of monster enemies and become familiar with the battles between humans, insects, beasts, monsters, etc., so that you will not be blinded when facing the new monster lair.
The tablet in Luke's hand now recorded some monster lairs that were public or required introductions, and soon he settled on a lair that had just opened not long ago, with the monster key word " Introduction to the nests of "Human", "Fighting" and "Weapon Fighting".
The introduction states that this lair only produces three types of pure humanoid monsters, namely a shirtless bald man, a long-haired man holding a broken wine bottle, and a female enemy with a cockscomb head who appears carrying a knife.
The game-related data in Luke's mind was huge, and he quickly found many alternatives based on the keyword entries and the pictures recorded in the introduction.
There are many games in which this kind of enemies are gangster-like humanoid creatures, and they are available on all platforms. But if there are only, or for the time being, only these three types of enemies, then the picture in Luke's mind will be directly fixed on the Famicom. A side-scrolling action game.
Double Dragon 3rd generation.
