"You idiot, you haven't evolved after absorbing the iron bones?" Chu Xin looked at Friday with something quite wrong. Damn it, you were almost frightened to death last night!
In one night, Friday had completely absorbed the iron bone, and his whole body began to vaguely show a semi-metallic appearance, seeming to be on the edge of an iron skeleton.
Its level is still at one-star LV10, full level. In fact, most creatures are restricted by the upper limit of star levels, and it is difficult to break through the star level. Moreover, Chu Xin was not a professional necromancer, and had no experience in cultivating undead, so he could only leave things to do before breaking through.
After getting up, he inspected the territory as usual. It was very clean. There were only a few farmlands and goblin merchants on it, but Chu Xin, who had learned his lesson, did not feel that he was not in danger. In the Land of Darkness, more creatures of all races die every year than the total population of the Emerald Empire.
At this moment, the hanging villain at the mine had 253 units of stone in his backpack, and he had a huge amount of resources. Chu Xin did not waste time and quickly pulled the golden villain back.
It was already daylight at this point, the manic monsters on the night map had recovered, and the road was relatively safe. From 7 p.m. to 5 a.m., monsters during this time are in a restless state and will actively attack the villains they explore. However, if they hang up at resource points, they will not be affected.
Black Castle does not have a return function, which is a rather uncomfortable thing. You have to run the map every time, which is a waste of time and energy. I don’t know if this function will be unlocked later.
With the quarry arriving, the watchtower can be built, but Chu Xin is still a little confused about where to build it.
The Gray Fang tribe to the west is a hidden danger. If a watchtower can be built on their house, it can play a good surveillance role. Once the other party makes any big move, he will know it immediately.
He originally planned to build it on the base camp of the Gray Fang Tribe, but the gnolls that came over last night taught him a lesson, so he is now more inclined to build it near his own territory to improve the territory's field of vision.
"Tip, please choose where to build the watchtower. Choose 1: Place it in the wild, which will give you a field of view near the target location; Choose 2: Place it in the territory, which can extend the territory by 500 meters."
Entering the watchtower construction interface, Chu Xin was startled by a sudden prompt. He quickly reacted, and then he was ecstatic. One was the view of the wild, and the other was the expansion of the territory. Even a fool knew how to choose.
The territory refresh every early morning is both a risk and an opportunity. For Chu Xin who needs to quickly accumulate strength, the expansion of the territory is quite necessary. He made the choice with little hesitation.
The extension of the territory is in a circular manner. If the watchtower is built anywhere in the territory, it will automatically take effect. Chu Xin did not hesitate too much and just threw it on the outer wasteland.
"You have chosen option 2, and the territory has been extended. The current field of view is 1.1 kilometers."
The bright halo around the black castle on the exploration map expanded rapidly, and Chu Xin instantly felt a sense of openness, like someone who had been groping in the dark for a long time and suddenly turned on the light.
Chu Xin had already explored the surrounding area. Except for the nearby bone burial ground, there were no other monsters, strongholds, or any resources. The territory was clean.
This expansion of the territory almost brought the burial ground into the territory. Chu Xin's territory was only 200 meters away from it.
Chu Xin became more motivated and had new ambitions in his heart. He continued to mine, plant watchtowers, and expand.
But before doing this, he needed to solve his breakfast problem and the goblin merchants in the territory. The nightmare last night made him so angry that this Goblin businessman would be his punching bag later.
Chu Xin temporarily left the golden child on the one-star farmland to collect some resources, then stretched out, picked up the Miao Dao, and prepared to go out to practice the sword and make breakfast.
As soon as he opened the door, he saw Ding Xiu in the open space in the distance, with his upper body bare and wielding a knife. On his sweaty back, Chu Xin saw dense scars.
A real man starts with scars all over his body!
When Chu Xin came out, Ding Xiu had finished practicing a set of sword skills. Although he didn't see anything, he still sent his business blessings immediately. No one should refuse Rainbow Fart!
"Okay, good swordsmanship!" Following these words, there was a burst of strong applause, and that was all.
Ding Xiu glanced at him indifferently, his eyes fell on Chu Xin's sword, and suddenly said: "Lianlian?"
Judging from Ding Xiu's expression, Chu Xin didn't know whether this shot hit the horse's leg or the horse's butt, but he didn't care. He held a knife in his hand and mustered up the courage to say: "Okay!"
"Come!" Ding Xiu put his long sword in its sheath, as if he was scorning Chu Xin, but he seemed to be afraid of accidental injury.
Chu Xin tightened the Miao Dao in her hand, feeling a little excited in her heart. She never thought that one day, she would be able to spar with these legendary heroes. If this was passed back, it would at least be known to her grandchildren.
"Be careful!" Chu Xin shouted coldly, and when he raised the long sword, he slashed with it. This is the most suitable attack method for the sword. He has the lowest level of advanced basic sword skills, but this move still has some power.
Unexpectedly, when the sword was in the air, he felt a pain in his chest. The scabbard in Ding Xiu's hand had already touched Chu Xin's chest.
"Come again!" Chu Xin was not discouraged. Seeing that Ding Xiu didn't look impatient, but rather playful like a cat catching a mouse, Chu Xin immediately became energetic and lifted it up again.
He doesn't have any arrogance, nor does he have the burden of being an elder or a younger brother. He is just an ordinary person. Being able to stand in front of such people and fight is a victory in itself.
Naturally, the result was an instant kill with one strike. Chu Xin's basic sword skills were borrowed from Ding Xiu's skills, and naturally the opponent caught the flaw at a glance.
"Come again!"
…
Chu Xin is very stubborn. Once he has his eyes on something, he will not give up easily. Although he is always killed instantly by Ding Xiu, in the next second, he can raise the knife again with a normal expression.
Ding Xiu also seemed to enjoy this feeling of torturing food, and played happily with Chu Xin. In this way, more than two hours passed, and Ding Xiu finally calmed down his original joking expression.
Repeated victories and repeated defeats, in the long run, undoubtedly the latter is more important.
Ding Xiu himself was not a talented expert. His strength was accumulated through such failures, which made him what he is today. Therefore, Chu Xin's performance surprised him.
However, accidents are accidents, but there is no way to continue fighting like this. Chu Xin seems to be tireless, but he is tired even standing.
So, this time, when Chu Xin came over again, Ding Xiu's sword was unsheathed.
With a flash of cold light, Chu Xin, who was immersed in the dream of martial arts, was instantly awakened. A fine layer of coldness enveloped his whole body, and he could even feel the cold feeling of metal in his throat.
The murderous intention that seemed to be substantial was constantly impacting Chu Xin's spirit. He had no doubt that Ding Xiu would really kill him now.
"Are you afraid?" Ding Xiu, who had a stern look on his face, suddenly showed a smile, put away his sword and taunted, "The real strong men are born between life and death, and you will practice your sword for a lifetime with your house-style practice. None of it will be effective.”
Chu Xin took a deep breath and suppressed the shadow of death lingering in his heart. This was the second time that he felt Ding Xiu's murderous intention, although he didn't really want to kill him.
"Come again!" Chu Xin, whose legs were trembling a little, still shouted stubbornly. He felt that even if this life-and-death experience could not enhance his sword skills, at least it could sharpen his character and make him calmer.
Moreover, Ding Xiu is still relatively stable in green on the map, indicating that it is still possible to continue practicing.
Ding Xiu, who was thinking that Chu Xin was scared out of his wits and could have breakfast on leave, was startled by the voice and waved his hands repeatedly, indicating that he was tired and couldn't move.
