Startled by the sound, Xia Weiran subconsciously collected a jar of wine and put it into the backpack compartment that had been rented and locked in advance.
Because she was afraid of being attacked by death again, and because she was afraid that it would be too late when the incident happened, she rented a lock for the empty grid in advance.
It doesn't matter if you can't find anything today, it doesn't matter before you spend more. I'm afraid that after finally finding something, but not being able to pick it up, or being blown away by someone else, I'd be really pissed off!
"Hey, stop it!"
The voice behind him was getting closer and closer. Xia Weiran didn't know what he was thinking, so he put another jar of wine into his backpack.
"You guy!"
The speaker finally came under the big tree and looked at Xia Weiran across the box: "How can you steal my things?"
steal?
Xia Weiran carefully observed the person opposite him.
Fat, very fat.
There is no name on the head.
Is it a player?
That’s not necessarily the case!
Xia Weiran remembered that the Nami she met at the beginning did not have a name on her head!
Not all NPCs will reveal themselves by name!
If you think about it along the lines of the game, this... uncle seems a bit familiar?
Fat, with a bare head, and a big beard tied into pigtails, isn't this...
"Wine barrel!"
Xia Weiran's eyes widened: "Are you a wine barrel?"
Each hero has his or her own title and name, such as Nami, her title is Tidecaller Sharaka, and Soraka, her title is Children of the Stars. However, some heroes are more famous by their titles, and some heroes are more widely known by their names.
For example, Xia Weiran knew that the hero who grew mushrooms was called Teemo, but she didn't know that Teemo actually had the title of "Swift Scout". Similarly, in Xia Weiran's eyes, the hero who always drinks the last drink before closing and shouts, "I'll let you drink it and knock it under the table" is a wine barrel.
His name is actually Nicholas.
No, it's Gragas.
"Hey, it turns out you know me."
The fat uncle stretched out his hand to stroke his beard and pigtails, and straightened his back: "It seems that I am still very famous!"
"Yeah, well, be famous! Be famous! I've been famous for a long time!"
Xia Weiran closed the box again: "I still have something to do, so I'll leave first!"
In fact, meeting this kind of mysterious NPC who is obviously not a player in the game and having a conversation often means that there will be a task or adventure next. But Xia Weiran just wanted to leave quickly at this moment, and didn't want any adventure.
the reason is simple.
This guy is a wine barrel!
What did he just say? Steal his stuff?
Is this wine his?
You can tell from the name, it’s very logical!
Qing Mimi found the wine hidden by others and took away two jars in one go.
If you don’t leave now, when will you wait?
Thanks to her mental preparation in advance, she knew that this was a game mission item and she had to take it away. Otherwise, she might still take the wine out and return it to the barrel...
Before he had even gone ten steps, the wine barrel had already been opened.
At this glance, it was obvious that there were two jars of wine missing!
"Little girl, stay! Give me back the wine!" Wine Barrel called to Xia Weiran.
Can Xia Weiran stay?
Of course not!
Run away!
As I ran, I thought, this game is simply poisonous!
Why is she always being chased?
If you continue like this, running will become a specialty of yours!
But what can we do if we don’t run? Are you going to have a fight with him?
Huh? Like, like, a good idea?
The only thing left in his equipment slot is Dolan's Shield, which cannot be dropped. Everything in his backpack is locked and cannot be dropped. As for experience, the experience dropped after death is proportional to each level. She is currently at level 4, and she will lose a quarter of the experience value of the current level if she dies once. Level 4 holds a maximum of 129 level experience points, and a quarter holds approximately 32 experience points.
Although, her current level experience value is only 21, less than a quarter, and death will directly return to level three. But what does that matter?
Due to the level protection mechanism, when death reduces the experience value and causes a level drop, the experience value after the level drop will be maintained at the level that is only one experience point short of being able to upgrade. If she randomly collects an egg or a piece of cabbage, she can return to the level. Level four.
But the actual combat experience of "fighting" is more important than a few experience value data!
On second thought, after death, return directly to the starting point, saving 20 minutes of travel.
Why do you feel like you are still making money even if you die?
Xia Weiran stopped.
The wine barrel rushed up, but it was almost too late to hit him, and he staggered and finally stabilized his steps.
"You, you, you, why did you stop?" Jiugong asked Xia Weiran.
After running these few steps, his face was now red, as if he had drunk alcohol.
Although it is a mountain, the terrain is relatively flat, which is suitable for fighting!
Xia Weiran took a deep breath and exhaled.
She began to think: Should we start the fight directly, or should we make a prelude?
Not getting an answer, Jiugong guessed by himself: "Little girl, have you considered giving the wine back to me?"
It was still impossible to return the wine, she still had to bring the wine to Cixi Granny!
"No." Xia Weiran looked at the fat wine barrel: "I just think there is no need to run. Just have a fight. A fight will solve the problem!"
She didn't think of a suitable opening and chose to get straight to the point.
Barrel: Huh?
Two days ago, when he was drinking in a tavern, he heard someone say that these adventurers who came from nowhere were more talkative, sweet-tongued and richer than the last.
Why, when he met this person, not only did he not coax him, ask him for things, or learn skills from him, but he actually wanted to fight with him?
Did he sleep too long last night and the world changed?
"You, don't you want to learn my skills?" Jiugong asked tentatively.
Xia Weiran: Huh?
No, uncle, you just chased me desperately because I took your wine. Why did you ask me if I wanted to learn skills in the blink of an eye?
How come this, with its coaxing tone, looks so much like Grandma Wolf?
"I can't do it, I won't learn!" Xia Weiran waved his hand.
Our ancestors said that if you show courtesy for nothing, you will be raped or stolen; there will be no pie in the sky, and there is no free lunch in the world...
Thanks to our ancestors for their wisdom and teachings!
"You!" Jiugong was very unhappy: "You have to learn! You should beg me to teach you skills!"
What do you mean?
Is there a script for this?
No, uncle, have you forgotten about the wine now?
"I'm too stupid to learn!" Xia Weiran smiled.
The plot changed so quickly that she was embarrassed to fight against the wine barrel.
"No!" Jiugong let go of his beard and pigtails, put his hands on his hips: "You must learn! I will teach you now!"
Xia Weiran's eyes widened.
Seriously?
This...could it be said that he is the destined protagonist, the chosen one?
When you meet a hero randomly, does he insist on teaching you skills?
However, it seems that I am only level 4 and have not unlocked the skill box yet!
Not even the first passive skill box has been unlocked yet!
