The most interesting thing that distinguishes this world from other worlds is that the resources here are so scarce that it is unbelievable. Zhang Qi was deeply touched by this as soon as he entered reincarnation.
As a newcomer, I don’t know what kind of material the cloth he is wearing is made of. It is very rough, with a lot of hard hair on one side, which makes the skin very uncomfortable. There are no silkworms here, and the textile industry is almost primitive. , mostly made of animal hides, and iron smelting, which are also blank. It is estimated that either their iron ore does not have it, or the content is extremely low. Most of the work done by the blacksmiths in the city is repair.
But at the same time, the most interesting thing is that monsters in the world will drop things. I don’t know how this works. Only when the monsters really die, some things will suddenly drop out, including equipment such as clothing and weapons, and even There are medicinal materials, which is very strange. For example, there is no place to hide things on a thin body like a scarecrow. Of course, people here are used to these people, just like Newton had no doubts about falling apples. If so, everyone would take it for granted, but the person who asked this question was very strange.
As an alien traveler, Zhang Qi has a personal inference that these so-called monsters have the ability to store space, and what controls this space is their soul. Once the soul disappears, it will naturally fall out. , although this inference has not been confirmed, for now, it can only be this explanation.
With this situation, killing monsters is not only an upgrade, but also becomes a basic job in this world, because if you don’t fight monsters, the source of supplies will be limited. This also explains why everyone in this world is an adventurer. The difference is only in strength and weakness. Just like the waiter in front of me, he is also an adventurer and his profession is a warrior. However, due to his lack of qualifications and abilities, his upgrade is very slow. I am afraid he will not reach level 20 in his lifetime. He might as well find a job. Work and live well. In fact, there are many people like Xiaoer in this world. After all, not everyone has good qualifications and takes risks as a career.
When the waiter learned that Zhang Qi had risen to level seven in such a short period of time, he was also very surprised. In his opinion, Zhang Qi was just bragging. After all, whoever drinks here doesn't brag, but when he saw Zhang Qi's pair Since he was so keen on taking risks, he was kind enough to introduce some effective ways to him.
Defeating monsters and upgrading is naturally the only option, but how to defeat monsters and upgrade is very particular. If you want to upgrade quickly, the best way is to cross-level challenges. For example, the seventh-level Zhang Qi corresponds to some peripheral mobs, such as Scarecrow and Palladium Cat, etc., although this method is safe, it is not efficient, so you have to cross levels to upgrade faster. This requires teamwork, so the key is to find teammates.
There are two types of teammates. One is the kind of true comrade-in-arms who have known each other for a long time. This is of course the best, but not everyone has this opportunity, so there is the second type, which is temporary teammates.
In order to cater to this demand, every town has a very unique place called the martial arts field, where you can find some temporary teammates. It just so happens that this is not far from the martial arts field. Go straight ahead and cross the bridge and turn right. arrive.
Zhang Qi was also very curious about this method. He said goodbye to the waiter, carried the package and went out. Along the way, he cleaned the contents of the package in the grocery store, got a lot of gold coins, and then headed towards Walk to the martial arts arena.
Just after crossing the bridge, a burst of noise came from the right. In a blink of an eye, the three characters "Martial Arts Field" were very conspicuous.
There is a two-story building inside and outside the martial arts arena. The upper floor is a high-end area, usually a place where higher-level adventurers find temporary teammates. Downstairs are some messy temporary bunks. After all, this kind of place is If you are an adventurer, there are still business opportunities. There is a basement underneath, which is quite large. It is a paradise for adventurers, with casinos, brothels, underground boxing rings, etc.
There was a huge square outside. Some people put up wooden signs saying what kind of temporary teammates they needed to find, and some simply shouted loudly.
"If there are any level 15 warriors, we'll leave as soon as the crowd is full..."
"We are missing a level 20 Taoist priest, so hurry up..."
"Big sale on level 25 warriors, only Wolma, only Wolma..."
"Don't miss it if you pass by. There is a clearance sale for level 20 mages. No equipment or money is required. You only need to be responsible for the blue medicine. This is a rare opportunity..."
"..."
This slogan? Zhang Qi listened to a black line, what a martial arts field, this is whether the labor market is good, and it is the combination of the station and the labor market in the 1990s.
Zhang Qi took a look at the situation and found that most of the needs here were for people above level 10. There were not many low-level people like him. Not long after he got used to it, someone took the initiative to ask, "Hey, friend, who are you?" Level 10 Taoist priest? Do you want to go to the Skull Cave? We have gathered eight level 10s, do you want to join us?"
Eight? Moreover, I am only at level 7, so the experience I can absorb is too spread out, and I am obviously lagging behind in terms of level with this combination. If any good equipment really comes out, I probably won’t be able to get it. To put it bluntly, I am working for free. , it’s okay to deceive an idiot about this kind of thing, but Zhang Qi couldn’t just confront him directly and just found an excuse to refuse.
Zhang Qi was not very tall and was quickly overwhelmed by the crowd, so he had to jump on the stage and find a high position to look down, looking for a temporary team that suited him.
His requirements were very simple. Firstly, the experience value should be high, and secondly, the number of people should not be too large. He searched around and finally saw a team in a corner that more closely met his requirements.
In terms of personnel, there are only two people in this team, one warrior and one mage, both at level 10. If you add Zhang Qi, one from each profession, it is a very reasonable combination. The requirements for team formation are also very reasonable. It was revealed Equipment depends on luck. Whoever can use it belongs to the profession. If the gold coins belong to the mage, and the medicines are taken care of by themselves, this requirement is very reasonable. After all, mages are the most expensive profession, and it is reasonable to take the money, but their destination is not suitable. , according to the information, they are going to fight the forest snowmen and half-beast warriors. Logically speaking, with the level and number of the three of them, they can only fight these. But for Zhang Qi, these peripheral monsters are not very experienced, and he wants to go It was the Skull Cave, and since there were so many people, he wanted to try to talk to the two of them.
"Skull Cave?" The two of them were stunned for a moment. Of course they wanted to go, but there were only three of them, and none of them were above level ten. It was too dangerous.
Zhang Qiyi saw that the two of them did not refuse on the spot, so he knew there was something going on. He thought that these two people were also temperamental people with a somewhat adventurous spirit. If they were ordinary people, they would have refused directly, and he even had the intention of blocking the team.
"You two, go behind that crowd." Zhang Qi smiled faintly and pointed to the crowd behind him.
The two of them were intrigued by Zhang Qi's mystery and followed his wishes.
Seeing this, Zhang Qi waved one hand and used the healing technique. He pointed at the warrior and the healing technique accurately landed on his head. This hand stunned them.
You must know that whether it is a Taoist priest or a mage, the core of this type of long-range hero is accuracy. Hitting a target beyond fifty meters depends on luck. But now that they are hundreds of meters away and still in the crowd, he is just casual. Hitting the target with one swing, you must know that these are Taoist priests. With this hand, their survival rate has been greatly increased, which shows their high talent.
He ran over immediately and agreed without saying a word. The three of them made an appointment to meet at the restaurant where Zhang Qi was in an hour. During this period, they could buy some travel supplies and make preparations.
Zhang Qi had accumulated a lot of gold coins along the way, and he was thinking of changing some equipment to improve his combat effectiveness. The equipment suitable for his current level was basically cheap, so he could buy a set for just a few bucks.
Since he didn't learn the Taoist priest's special attack skills, and his strongest point was physical attack, his equipment was geared towards warriors. He replaced the wooden sword with a bronze sword, and also bought a pair of bronze rings, a gold necklace and an iron bracelet. In this way, it is really a shotgun replaced by a cannon, plus the mysterious bone dagger. Although they are all cheap, the overall additional attack attribute reaches 18-24, which is absolutely terrifying.
When the two of them saw Zhang Qi's equipment, they were stunned. Isn't this guy a Taoist priest? It's ordinary warrior equipment, but it's hard to ask. After all, how much money can someone of Zhang Qi's level have? It would be nice to get a set. It can also correspond to a Taoist priest's set. Wouldn't it embarrass others if I ask? .
But Zhang Qi was quite surprised when he saw how the two of them were dressed. Although they were only at level 10, the equipment they wore were all corresponding professional equipment. The warrior actually had a top-grade piece of equipment with added physical defense. It seemed that if it weren't for luck, Yes, there was someone behind him, and the one who made Zhang Qi sure that there was someone behind him was the mage. This guy actually had two pieces of top-quality magic equipment. You must know that even one piece of this equipment can be worth a hundred times and thousands of his entire wealth. Times, this is not luck. It seems that there is really someone behind it. However, he doesn't ask. In the world of adventurers, everyone has secrets. Of course, there are reasons why people don't tell them. Naturally, he doesn't. It's not fun to discuss this.
The soldier was bold by nature. Seeing that the two men were well equipped, he laughed and said, "Brothers, let's go!"
The mage seemed not only to have someone behind him, but also a rich man. He directly hired a car. He and Zhang Qi sat in the car. The soldier naturally sat outside the car. This is common sense here. Soldiers generally do not ride in cars. Inside, they are the team's human shield, preventing some mobs from harassing them.
There weren't many mobs along the way, and the tenth-level warriors cleared them up very quickly, without them having to take action, and they soon arrived at the entrance of the Skeleton Cave.
There is no specific record of when the Skull Cave was formed, but it was really just a cave entrance, just like the cave entrance left by the previous bombing of the mountain. There were still many vendors nearby. The three of them ignored him, and the warrior took the lead.
There are basically no strange things near the entrance, and if there are any, they have been cleaned up by others. After all, this place is one of the favorite places for intermediate adventurers, and there are still a lot of adventurers here.
According to the introduction of the two people, it is very big here. It is much bigger than the description in the game. Under normal circumstances, if you don't go to a popular place, you are unlikely to meet other people. Because there are few people, the three of them , the level is low, and I am afraid of being cheated. After all, it is normal to encounter this kind of thing when fighting monsters.
Zhang Qi felt that they had walked for a long time, but the three of them did not dare to go too deep, but they did not encounter a single monster. This was not the outskirts. The types of monsters were very single, all of which were skeleton monsters. The most common ones were ordinary monsters. Skeletons, more powerful long-range skeletons called axe-throwing skeletons, enhanced skeleton warriors, more powerful skeleton warriors, and very disgusting cave maggots, and of course, their BOSS skeleton elf.
The soldier must have been exploring the path at the front, Zhang Qi as a Taoist priest was in the middle, and the mage stayed behind. Just as the three of them were moving forward cautiously, the soldier who was exploring the path in front suddenly made a silent gesture, and the three of them stopped immediately. Come down.
Zhang Qi put his ear against the wall, and sure enough he heard a regular "kaka" sound. Then he poked his head out and took a look, and sure enough, there was a skeleton right in front of him.
The skeletons in the game are about the same height as humans, which can be understood as humans mutating after death. However, the skeletons here are more than three meters tall and hold a huge bone hammer. At first glance, they are not easy to mess with.
The warrior roared and rushed forward. He stabbed the long iron sword fiercely and struck first. This is the advantage of human beings. However, it was not him who attacked the skeleton first, but the mage standing at the back. The small fireball technique hit it quickly. Without preparation, it was naturally easy to hit. However, because the level was not high, the damage caused was very limited.
After being attacked, the hollow eyes of the skeleton rolled around and turned to run in the direction of the mage. However, before it could take a step forward, the warrior's sword struck him directly. The damage caused by the surprise attack was still very considerable.
The monsters here are almost the same as in the game. After being attacked by the warrior, the skeleton immediately transfers its attack target from the mage to the warrior, and the mage also uses small fireballs to transfer its attack target again at the right time. This is the most commonly used pulling tactic for fighting monsters. , although this is the most basic and commonly used, there are not many that can really be used. This requires not only combat talent, but also a tacit understanding between the two.
But the level of skeletons is much higher than them, so it is inevitable that they will be rubbed a little bit in the battle. Fortunately, mages are unlikely to have this opportunity, but warriors will, but warriors at level 10 are still somewhat tolerant, plus Zhang Qi treated them at critical moments every time, and they successfully killed the skeleton.
The luck of the three of them was not very good, and they basically didn't reveal anything. However, the massive amount of experience made Zhang Qixin very happy. This was completely different from the little monsters outside. Even if the experience was divided among the three, it would still be higher than that of the others. There’s a lot more out there.
Being able to kill the skeletons so easily, the three of them immediately became more confident and swept away their previous worries. They were especially convinced by the accuracy of Zhang Qi's healing technique. They even didn't even look at Zhang Qi when they saw him performing the healing technique. Look, the healing spell landed on the warrior's head with just a casual touch. He never missed once. It was considered good to know that the long-range healing spell had half the hit rate.
After that, they solved the lone skeletons one after another, and the results were good and bad. Perhaps it was too smooth, which made them paralyzed. By accident, they actually attracted two skeletons, and this time they were in trouble.
The mage's small fireballs don't have the hit rate of Zhang Qi. Sometimes they hit, sometimes they miss. If there is only one skeleton, it's okay, but if there are two, there will be a danger of the warrior being flanked. Zhang Qi also speeds up the frequency of casting healing spells. He kept pulling the warrior back from the edge of danger, but after all, his level was not high, and he couldn't handle the two skeleton attacks.
The mage was a little anxious when he saw this situation, but the more anxious he was, the lower his hit rate. When Zhang Qi saw this, he sighed, thinking that the psychological quality of this group of people was far worse than that of Xuan Tiancheng. If Xuan Tiancheng were here, He would absolutely believe in Zhang Qi's protective ability and could only fight more and more bravely among the skeletons, but the warrior was obviously dying.
In desperation, he had no choice but to take action himself. The bronze sword was struck at a strange angle, cutting directly on the skeleton's back. With the help of the bone dagger, the remaining blood of the skeleton was directly cleared.
The soldier was so stunned that he forgot about his current surroundings. Zhang Qi shook his head repeatedly and reminded the soldier. Only then did the soldier react and slowly kill the skeleton.
Looking at the exploding things on the ground, both of them forgot to pick them up. This... is this a Taoist priest?
When that sword hit, even the high-level warriors did not suffer such horrific damage. The two of them just said that they had encountered the seeds of a certain force, and they did not dare to ask, and it was not easy to ask. If this kind of secret were replaced, they would probably not be able to do it. He wouldn't say it, not to mention that it was just the first time he'd met him and he hadn't even established trust, so how could he tell the secret to him?
For the two of them, this is not important. What is important is that with Zhang Qi's strong attack, the trip to the Skull Cave is a journey. The three of them became more courageous and rushed directly into the depths, preparing to attack The skeleton warrior will take action.
The Skeleton Warlord is the strongest monster among all skeleton characters except BOSS. It not only has extraordinary attack power, but also has strong defense power. Unless you have a team or an intermediate warrior, you will not actively look for them. But one good thing is that skeleton warriors rarely work in groups and usually act alone, which makes them the first choice for Zhang Qi and others.
After Zhang Qi showed his strength, the three people's fighting style changed. The warrior and mage were only used to divert the monster's attack direction. In this way, Zhang Qi could attack without any scruples. With his strong attack and killing efficiency It's really high and ends up leaving a bunch of stuff behind.
This experience is really high. Zhang Qi found that the income here is much higher than outside, more than double. It seems that he can reach at least level 21 or above within a hundred days.
The three of them had been fighting monsters for a long time. Zhang Qi still had plenty of energy, but the two of them were as tired as dogs. Zhang Qi had to take a break, find a safe place, take out dry food, and replenish his physical strength. Organize the harvest.
