Chapter 17(1/2)
"Bai Er must leave the novice village within 24 hours, but your 100 points have not been enough?"
Shu Ai asked Zou Yidao.
Zou Yidao shook his head: "But it's too soon, it's still 36."
"How do you get points?"
"Only do tasks."
Zou Yidao looked unhappy, "Girl, go and gather everyone in the village and ask them to group to do the tasks for me. It won't take long to complete it."
"What if someone doesn't want to?"
"They dare not."
Qiao Jingting asked, "Where are we going with 100 points?"
"Let's go to Xingrima first, one of the four major free markets. Xingrima mainly trades weapons and equipment."
Zou Yidao looked up and down the three of them, "You should get something decent."
"Didn't you say we should wash our mind first?"
“I suggest you wash your mind first.
However, if you are in a hurry to go out, go to the Free Market. In principle, hunting in the city is not allowed. This is the customary rule that players have agreed upon. The big guilds have shops there. Whoever breaks the rules is to hit the big guild in the face, so you are safer there."
Qiao Jingting and Shu Ai looked at each other, and Shu Ai said, "Let's save some points first before leaving, be more secure."
Qiao Jingting thought about it. Since Qiao Rui had not left the novice village, he didn't have to worry for a while. "Okay, let's help Brother Dao do the task, and then save some points by himself, where is the shallow water crocodile..." He suddenly remembered something and frowned, "I'm going to kill the shallow water crocodile now, are there no points?"
Shu Ai checked: "Yes, 6 points, the higher our level, the lower the points we get when killing monsters in the novice village."
Qiao Jingting was a little disappointed. He finally found a cost-effective monster-buying point. He said, "It's okay, I want to go into the void space again and see it. I will definitely find new monsters, preferably goblins."
"Then I'll go to Xingrima first."
Bai Er's alienated eyes flashed with a little bit of expression, "I want to go out and have a look."
Zou Yidao said: "After you go out, don't run around, you need to kill monsters or do tasks. You can team up in the free market, and we will go to find you soon."
"knew."
"Hey, you're so anxious. At least you have a bar and celebrate."
Qiao Jingting pressed his shoulder and pressed him back into his seat.
Bai Er thought for a while: "Okay.
But I want to go to the high-level weird points first and test my strength. I will come back tonight."
"Go."
Bai Er stood up again, with a dark umbrella in his hand.
The umbrella was unusual at first glance. The umbrella rod was as thick as an adult's fingers. The design of the umbrella handle was clearly the hilt of the sword. The overall keel was treated with charcoal. The tip of the umbrella was a sharp spike. The umbrella cloth was densely woven and thick, giving people a simple and solid feeling.
"You also customized this umbrella?"
Qiao Jingting remembered that Bai Er said that there are two types of weapons he often uses, and this umbrella is clearly a murder weapon.
"Um."
Bai Er opened the umbrella and looked at the sun outside, seemingly reluctant to go out.
Qiao Jingting took the umbrella and weighed it. It was quite heavy. Although it was not as heavy as his mace, no one would treat this thing as a simple umbrella.
He exchanged it for Bai Er, "Don't go out if you're afraid of the sun."
Bai Er shook his head: "I want to go and have a look."
As he said that, he held up his umbrella and walked out of the room.
"Let's hurry up, too."
Qiao Jingting said, "Shu Ai, I'll leave it to you about Brother Dao's points. I'll go into the system bug and I'll wake me up when the sun sets. I want to go in for a longer time this time."
Shu Ai nodded: "Don't worry, I'm familiar with everyone in the village."
Qiao Jingting returned to the bedroom and entered the void space again.
He knew that he would stay in it for a long time this time, because now there are still seven or eight hours before the sun sets, so he is not in a hurry to run around. He wants to verify one of his ideas first.
He tried to open the warehouse in the void space.
He didn't have much hope at first, but he didn't expect the warehouse to really open and he successfully took out his six-edged mace from it!
This discovery made him ecstatic. He grabbed the weapon, waved his arms and walked like Bai Er's sect. Except for not feeling the weight of the mace and having nothing to do to target objects, everything else was like outside.
In the void space, time is magnified by dozens of times. He can spend a lot of time here to practice footwork, moves and speed, and then the control of force such as swinging and exerting force is left outside to practice, which will definitely greatly improve his strength!
This discovery may be more valuable than hitting monsters and picking up weapons. He believed what Zou Yidao said was that the important thing is not which profession to choose, but how to control and use these abilities.
Qiao Jingting practiced in the void space for a long time. Because he couldn't feel tired, he could repeat a movement thousands of times, especially Bai Er taught him the three-stage judo footwork. He walked over and over again, and in the end he would be familiar with it and learn from it in actual combat.
When he was annoyed in his practice, he ran around everywhere. Anyway, everything he encountered was random, so he could only try to expand his search range.
This time, he met four monsters: woodland spider, tooth ghost, bullfighting, and red centipede, but he gave up tooth ghost and red centipede. These two monsters had too few points. He spent a lot of time familiarizing themselves with the 24-point forest spider and 21-point bullfighting. Woodland spider is the active group attack monster second only to the goblins, while bullfighting has the highest points among passive group attack monsters. Both of these are very suitable for earning points.
In addition, he also picked up a Bernelli M1 tactical shotgun, a blessing scroll, an Eagle Eye Rune Stone and... a basket of crabs.
Qiao Jingting was very happy to pick up the rune stone. It was very difficult to hit the rune stone in the novice village. Only the highest level monsters may fall. Even if you can't use this rune stone, you can still sell it for a good price.
It took a long time to wake up Qiao Jingting. If it weren't for having something to do, he might have lost his spirit if he stayed alone in the dark for so long.
At the end of the day, Qiao Jingting began to wonder if he could not wake up. The pressure was even more terrifying than the fear of death. He decided that he would not come in for so long in the future.
After waking up, the sun had just set, and Zou Yidao and Shu Ai were waiting for him to show his spoils.
Qiao Jingting let out a long sigh: "I finally woke up."
"What's wrong?
Didn't you touch anything?"
"No, I encountered a lot of things, but I felt that I had been locked up for more than ten days, and it might be longer... Anyway, I don't have the concept of time in the end."
He was still scared, "Don't spend more than three hours next time."
Zou Yidao shook his head: "Isn't this the same as being in confinement? No normal people can stand it, and you are working hard enough."
“Better than being in a confinement.”
Qiao Jingting calmed down and shared his gains this time.
Shu Aixi said: "It's great, this time it's a great harvest."
Zou Yidao was a little jealous: "You guy is so lucky. You can find such awesome bugs."
Qiao Jingting smiled proudly and took out the rune stone from the warehouse. He had never seen the rune stone before.
The rune stone is an egg-sized piece of water droplet-shaped obsidian with abstract symbols engraved on it, which emits a flashing red light.
"It's the first time I've seen a rune stone."
Shu Ai picked it up and looked at it, "'Eagle Eye' can improve your vision by 20%. It seems to be quite powerful. Should I leave it to Bai Er?"
"Rubbish."
Zou Yidao said bluntly, "There is no runestone worth eating in the novice village. You can't spit it out after eating it. Each person can only eat 3. If you get better runestones in the future, there will be no place."
"That's all we can do."
"Yeah, I'll sell it."
Qiao Jingting decided to leave the shotgun and sold the rune stone for 200 points.
The blessing scroll can be selected as an enhanced value, which can be increased by 10% in a short period of time. Since it is a primary item, it is not very useful, but Qiao Jingting still kept it.
Thinking about how I looked when I first entered the game, I would definitely take such a thing as a treasure, but now it is very useless.
Finally, he took out the basket of crabs, and each one was alive.
Zou Yidao was stunned: "You picked this up inside?"
Qiao Jingting was amused and crying: "Yes, I just said that I was going to hold a celebration banquet tonight, so I gave me a basket of crabs."
Shu Ai smiled and said, "I'll buy something else."
"Wine, you must buy more wine."
Zou Yidao patted Qiao Jingting heavily, "Let me measure your amount."
Qiao Jingting smiled provocatively: "Who is afraid of whom?"
After a while, Bai Er came back. Apart from some blood on his body, he was fine, but he looked a little tired.
"How about it?
Any gains?"
"I tried the goblins for you. They were amazing. Without the hot weapons, most people in the novice village would not be able to beat them."
"Well, I have observed them before, and they are really amazing. I don't plan to sweep the goblins. We've already picked some weird things."
