As Lu Xi expected, when she asked Xiao Yuan and Zhuo Zhuo to stand on the teleportation platform, they began to release their elemental power.
The battery symbol on it represented the power of the elements, and the numbers inside began to grow.
After the number reached 100%, a burst of dazzling golden light burst out instantly, and even Xiao Yuan and Zhuo Zhuo saw this light.
After the light passed, a brand new teleportation platform appeared in front of Lu Xi. Without any system prompts, Lu Xi knew that her mission progress bar had increased a lot.
Continuing to walk along the main road in the forest, Lu Xi soon passed the territory of Round Rabbit. Of course, Round Rabbit was named by Lu Xi. In the mark on the map, its name was "Wind Shadow Rabbit".
It means "the shadow of the wind". If you move very fast, you can only hear the sound of the wind, and you can't even see the shadow.
When Lu Xi was chatting with Dina from the Dragon Hunting Mercenary Group, he learned about this kind of monster. Although it is a race of ordinary monsters, there are occasionally some mutated individuals that activate elemental power and become the king of the race.
Unlike other monsters that occasionally activate the elemental power of other attributes, the Wind Shadow Rabbit has been found to be able to activate only the wind attribute element, so it is also called the favored one of the wind element.
If he hadn't walked into the middle of the Wind Shadow Rabbit's territory and the system notification that he was not allowed to hunt popped up, Lu Xi would not have noticed that there was a Wind Shadow Rabbit here.
After standing down and waiting for a few minutes, Lu Xi saw a few white shadows running quickly from the left side of the road to the right side of the road, and then back again so quickly that you felt like you were dazzled.
Xiao Yuan and Zhuo Zhuo were eager to catch those Wind Shadow Rabbits. Unfortunately, the things were too fast and did not give them a chance. Moreover, even if they caught them, they would not be able to harm the Wind Shadow Rabbits.
Only the "player" Lu Xi has the authority to hunt the things here.
Lu Xi soon encountered the second dilapidated teleportation platform. Without her needing to say anything, Xiao Yuan and Zhuo Zhuo had already jumped on it very consciously and began to "charge" the teleportation platform.
Lu Xi was very touched. She really didn't expect that bringing Xiao Yuan and Zhuo Zhuo could be of such use. If she was alone, she should find a way to make money at this time.
After unlocking the second teleportation platform, Lu Xi discovered a pattern, that is, these two teleportation platforms are located in the corners of the map.
Just like the farm, the system map in the upper right corner of Lu Xi's game panel can only see the main part of the dark forest, not the outermost edge.
On the system map, you can see a road with an overall square shape, connected end to end, and two teleportation platforms that have been lit, located in the northeast corner and southeast corner respectively.
The entrance connecting the farm and the Dark Night Forest is in the middle of the south direction, not adjacent to the corners on either side, so Lu Xi had not discovered the existence of the teleportation platform before.
After activating the teleportation platform in the southwest corner of the Dark Night Forest, Lu Xi met the monster she wanted to see most, the "Chicken with Red Feathers and White Feathers."
When Lu Xi saw a group of chickens, his excitement was beyond words. Although these chickens were slightly larger, more than half a meter tall, with beautiful long feathers hanging behind their tails, they looked more like some ornamental animals. Monster.
However, it is a "chicken"!
Lu Xi was deeply moved. The longer she stayed in another world, the more she missed the life on earth, and also missed everything on earth. She desperately wanted to find items in the other world that were similar enough to those on earth.
Unfortunately, there was still no way to hunt, so Lu Xi had to continue moving forward. Near the northwest corner, Lu Xi encountered the fourth monster, the "Sand Rat."
Speaking of which, sand hamsters are also Lu Xi's old friends. Sand hamsters are extremely fat and their meat is perfect for extracting oil. However, this monster likes to burrow into the ground. It usually lives underground and rarely comes out of the ground.
If Lu Xi hadn't seen a few sudden potholes on the ground, he wouldn't have realized that there were monsters here.
After the last teleportation platform was activated, Xiao Yuan and Zhuo Zhuo both looked a little tired. It was not easy to release the elemental power, let alone they were just fragile cubs.
Among them, Zhuo Zhuo is the one who contributes the most. It bears almost 80% of the elemental power. There is no way, the dragon is such an unreasonable and powerful creature.
[System notification: Congratulations to the player for completing the "Side Mission: Dark Night Forest" and receiving the mission reward "100 experience points and a map". 】
[System prompt: The player level has been upgraded to level 5. 】
An object like a parchment scroll appeared in Lu Xi's hand. Lu Xi unfolded it and displayed a very detailed map using a special painting method.
It's a pity that Lu Xi can't understand it very well, but the good news is that the method of using this map is not easy to understand. A light blue arrow suddenly appears on the top of the map, guiding Lu Xi.
Zhuo Zhuo curiously lowered his head to bite the arrow and took a mouthful of air. The arrow was just a projection, not an entity.
Stopping Zhuo Zhuo's next move, Lu Xi started walking in the direction of the arrow, and finally stopped at a position slightly west of the north side of the Dark Night Forest.
The direction pointed by the arrow is a pathless hillside and cliff, with several huge stones standing irregularly there.
Although Zhuo Zhuo could take Lu Xi to fly up, Lu Xi felt that the arrow on the map didn't mean that.
After tentatively taking a few steps forward, the parchment map in his hand suddenly flew up and turned into a ray of light, rushing towards the boulders.
There was a "crunching" sound, and the boulder moved on its own, revealing a three- to four-meter-high cave behind it.
Looking carefully, Lu Xi found that the cave was not naturally formed. Looking inside the entrance of the cave, he could see various wooden shelves supporting the entrance of the cave and preventing it from easily collapsing due to accidents.
This is an artificial hole.
After the boulders dispersed on both sides and the sound dissipated, a line of large characters that only Lu Xi could see appeared above the entrance of the cave, "Underground Mine."
Without hesitation, Lu Xi walked towards the entrance of the mine. Even in the daytime, there was an inexplicable darkness coming from the entrance of the mine.
Lu Xi walked to the door and saw something like a mine car track built underground. The door of the cave was very dim, but there were many miner's lamps hanging on the walls on both sides. Although it was a little dim, it was still enough to illuminate things.
After walking along the minecart track for a certain distance, the environment suddenly became empty, and multiple roads appeared in front of them, leading to different directions.
Lu Xi looked at the map in the upper right corner. Fortunately, the system map was available, clearly showing the route in the mine and the location of the NPCs inside.
This saves Lu Xi from having to search back and forth in the dark and complicated mine route.
"It's so cold here." Lu Xi rubbed her shoulders. Ever since she entered the mine, she felt a special cold on her body. The clothes on her body didn't even have any protection against the cold.
After Xiao Yuan heard Lu Xi's voice, he quickly moved closer to Lu Xi, trying to warm Lu Xi with his smooth fur. Following Zuo Zhuo's example, he spread his huge wings to hug Lu Xi.
Xiao Yuan hurriedly scolded it, and then the two cubs didn't know what they communicated. Zhuo Zuo took two steps back with a look of realization, cleared his throat, and was about to start breathing fire.
With a look of horror on his face, Lu Xi stopped Zhuo Zuo's movements, preventing him from spitting out the dragon fire.
Although Lu Xi had returned a lot of her knowledge to her teachers after graduation, she also knew that open fires should not be lit in the mine because who knows if there might be any flammable gas in it!
Even if there are certain game attributes here, it cannot be ruled out that there is not enough reality here. Lu Xi does not want to die miserably in a different world for such a ridiculous reason.
After briefly explaining the stakes, and looking at the half-understanding expressions of the two cubs, Lu Xi sighed, reopened the game map, and prepared to go find the miner Kufu.
Suddenly, he saw a blue pattern mark in the corner of his eye, appearing next to his avatar.
A premonition appeared in Lu Xi's heart. He clicked on the pattern to check, and it was true.
[Cold: The environment in this area is cold, and the player's actions will be slowed down. 1 stamina point will be deducted from the player every minute, and double stamina will be deducted when performing physical work. Players are asked to wear clothing with "cold-resistant" attributes, or carry " Tools with the attribute "cold resistance" can be exempted from the status debuffs in this environment. 】
After a while, Lu Xi had lost 5 points of physical strength and still had 47 points of physical strength left. After all, she had cut down a lot of trees before.
Either find Kufu within fifty minutes, learn the "mining" skill, and pray that there will be no other tasks that consume physical strength, or go back now, find a way to get clothes with "cold resistance" properties, and then come back.
But thinking about it, "tailoring" skills are definitely indispensable for making clothes, and Lu Xi's choice seems to have no choice.
Lu Xi clicked on his backpack to see if there were any useful items.
Dozens of bulbous cabbage fruits have been harvested but have not been used for cooking. The main reason is that the ingredients required for the recipe are not enough and the dishes cannot be cooked. Eating one raw can restore 1 point of physical strength.
Lu Xi glanced at the basketball-sized dish and felt that it would take him more than a minute to chew one raw.
A few cassava melons and red cassava fruits each had the same effect as above, so Lu Xi chose to give up.
Several bags of fertilizer are useless.
Low-level monster fodder, useless.
Item storage box, useless.
The low-level tool kit is useless. It can randomly produce Frost and Dew Tree x5 wood, Sand and Stone Tree x5 wood, or Sun and Moon Tree x3 wood... I had thought that I would save myself a trip to the Dark Night Forest.
Basic wood package, useless,
Basic maintenance drawings are useless.
Ordinary red wine is useless, but it can restore 50 energy points. The effect is not bad. Lu Xi writes down the use. She didn't pay special attention to the contents of the backpack before. Normally, there are no good things given at the beginning of the game.
Fifteen portions of fried French fries are useful. Each portion can increase physical strength by 50 points, giving Lu Xi fifty minutes more activity time. It's quite good. At least he can eat to replenish his energy when his physical strength is low.
High-quality white bread can increase physical strength by 50 points. No... No, this is useful. Lu Xi's eyes lit up and he saw the last few lines.
[Special effect: Immune to negative status, lasts for one hour. 】
This was the first time Lu Xi saw food with special effects. She recalled the origin of these two fine white breads.
They are the novice gift pack and level 3 level rewards.
Well, it is not an item that can be obtained permanently. Lu Xi was slightly disappointed, took out the high-quality white bread from his backpack, and ate it quickly. The effect of high-quality white bread is better than fried French fries - Lu Xi is not very Make sure your belly can handle several servings of French fries.
Although it is game food, the feeling of fullness after eating it is real!
A warm feeling instantly filled Lu Xi's body, and Lu Xi suddenly no longer felt any discomfort.
Maybe this "negative status immunity" can do something else, Lu Xi thought, but her movements were not slow. The immunity to negative status only lasted an hour, so she had to save time.
Miner Kufu is located in the southwest corner of the underground mine. There is an underground lake there, and Kufu is next to the underground lake.
The roads in the mine were wide and narrow, so Lu Xi did not let Zhuo Zhuo carry him forward. Zhuo Zhuo's control was not very good, and this narrow terrain was not suitable for it to perform.
Although Long's body was strong and he was not afraid of being injured when he hit the wall, Lu Xi was afraid that it would collapse in the mine.
Ten minutes later, Lu Xi saw a figure chiseling stone on the wall, with the two characters "Kuf" on his head, which almost overlapped with the characters "Steel Stone" displayed on the ore next to him.
Kufu was wearing a miner's uniform that looked very thick, and he also had a hat with a mining lamp on his head. After hearing Lu Xi's greeting, he stopped tapping the ore.
"Ah, it's Miss Lucy. I heard Rowim say that you have inherited our Lingbo Farm. This is really a good thing."
Kufu seemed to be a young man under thirty years old. His physique was somewhat stronger than Uga's, and he seemed to have a very enthusiastic personality.
Before Lu Xi could answer, Ku Fu had already finished speaking.
"Speaking of which, you came to me probably because you want to learn 'mining'."
Lu Xi was silent for a moment and said something perfunctory. I wonder if any of the resident NPCs in the farm remembered that she was a noble lady who inherited the farm.
Don't you think it's a bit outrageous to ask a noble lady to work in a restaurant and learn "mining"? !
"Hahaha, mining is not an easy task." Kufu smiled cheerfully, "Miss Lucy, you should have brought tools and mining picks."
Lu Xi nodded again and took out the mining pick from the basic tools. Kufu didn't waste any time and pointed to a piece of fine steel stone next to him, "Then please, Miss Lucy, please mine this piece of fine steel stone."
Lu Xi approached the piece of fine steel with the pickaxe, raised the pickaxe in an awkward manner, and dug in with all his strength.
Very good, no system notification popped up this time. Lu Xi repeated the operation a few times, and with a flash of light, a large piece of fine steel suddenly broke into several standard-sized ore blocks.
Putting it into his backpack, Lu Xi looked at Ku Fu.
"Very good. In this way, Miss Lucy, you have learned the 'mining' skill." Kufu congratulated Lu Xi sincerely.
[System notification: Congratulations to the player for completing the "Side Mission Mining" and receiving the mission reward "300 experience points, advanced mining pick × 1, mining tool set × 1". 】
"However, Miss Lucy should still wear appropriate clothing when she comes next time. In addition, advanced tools will also improve your mining efficiency, Miss Lucy. You can use advanced tools appropriately."
Lu Xi looked up at Ku Fu in surprise. There was nothing wrong with his expression. He still had that warm and friendly smile.
"There is a mine shaft to the east of the mine. Miss Lucy can go through the mine to the second and third floors of the underground mine. The further you go down, the worse the environment in the mine will be. Please be careful."
I found that I forgot to write down the experience value for the previous side mission rewards, so I have already added them.
Although I won’t write down the numerical values in particularly detail, I probably still need them.
