Chapter 23 There is no time to become invincible in this world
On the top of a hill, several boulders were scattered randomly, and an arrow connected to a steel wire was stuck between two boulders.
Following the faint sound coming from the cliff, a small hand wearing a fingerless glove with a metal guard stretched out from the cliff and rested on the edge of the cliff.
Turning over, a girl wearing a brown blouse and carrying a metal long bow turned up.
He took out the clockwork spring device from his waist that had exhausted its elasticity and threw it to the ground.
Phew, I finally climbed up. I didn’t expect that I would fall down so quickly due to the force of the clockwork spring device. Fortunately, I found it early, otherwise I would have to fall down again.
I stood on the top of the mountain and looked around. It was very good. There were no wild animals or anything. Take a rest.
Pick up the arrow stuck between the stones, insert it into the buckle of the belt around your waist, and then rest against the stone on the edge of the cliff.
Hey, what's going on ahead?
While I was waiting for my physical strength to recover to more than half before going down the mountain, I saw a horrifying scene on the top of the mountain on the opposite side. Thousands of gray wolves gathered on the top of the mountain surrounding the body of the Wolf King.
No way, are you holding a memorial party for the Wolf King?
Come down the mountain quickly. More than half of the damage to the Wolf King was caused by the grenades I threw. It won't be good if they use me as a sacrifice after the chase. The gray wolf is a creature that holds a grudge.
I stood up and prepared to find the way down the mountain. The scene on the top of the mountain on the opposite side left me stunned.
Thousands of giant wolves suddenly started biting each other in a chaotic manner, seemingly fighting for something. That was... the body of the Wolf King?!
After a few minutes of melee, a gray wolf swallowed a glowing piece of meat from the Wolf King's body. A cloud of cold air suddenly exploded with the gray wolf as the center, freezing dozens of nearby gray wolves into ice.
piece.
This gray wolf looked up to the sky and howled, and the gray hair on its body slowly turned into silvery white.
Seeing the transformation of this gray wolf, the other gray wolves seemed to have encountered something terrible and ran madly down the mountain.
Your sister, when will beasts be able to level up by swallowing magic cores? Doesn’t it mean that beasts that swallow magic crystals will be blown to pieces by the magic crystals?
The situation in front of me left me no time to think too much. I put the last arrow on the bow, hung the grenade on the arrow, lit the stretched fuse with a flint, raised the bow, and aimed.
Height, distance, wind force, grenade weight.
Squinting his eyes slightly, he raised the arrow pointed at the transforming gray wolf a little higher, moved it to the right, and released it!
The arrow with the grenade left a parabola of white smoke in mid-air, landing just under the limbs of the transformed gray wolf.
boom!!!
The gray wolf's body, with a large number of white light spots gathering crazily, was blown into countless pieces. Before it could be blown away, it was frozen by the rampant ice and turned into a bright red ice flower with cold light.
System prompt: Obtain 100 skill points.
Yes! He clenched his right hand into a fist and waved it downward fiercely.
After some observation, the gray wolf that was frightened and ran away did not come back. Do you want to go over and have a look?
Because the clockwork spring device could no longer be used, I had to go down the mountain and go around the cliff and then up the mountain.
After climbing to the top of the mountain again, it was already an hour later.
Holding a torch wrapped in resin, I stood in front of the ice flowers and looked back and forth.
An hour has passed, but there are no traces of melting on the frozen ice, and a knife can only leave a faint white mark on the ice.
It's really hard to cut. When I cut it down, the durability of the knife was reduced by 1 point. When I saw that the dagger's durability was reduced to zero and the edge was curled up, I curled my lips helplessly.
Nothing gained, go back.
Although the corpse of this gray wolf was frozen into ice, it was of no use. The frozen gray wolf next to it melted. Unfortunately, after thawing, the corpse was broken into pieces of meat and could not be peeled off.
As soon as I turned around, two moons slowly rose from the sky. The two colors of moonlight, one red and one blue, covered the hills at night.
Some light seemed to flicker after birth, and the light from the torch could not be blocked.
I turned around again and saw that in the center of the ice flower, a small piece of blood-red ice seemed to be shining.
I picked up a branch and carefully picked out the glowing ice cube from the stamen of the ice flower. As this small piece of ice was picked out, the ice flower exploded into countless white light spots and slowly dissipated in the air.
What's this?
He tapped the branch that had just touched the ice cube with his finger, and after making sure the temperature was not too cold, he picked up the red ice cube.
Unformed magic core: In addition to the ice magic contained, it seems to be mixed with some other unknown powers.
It is currently unavailable, so please put it away first.
After putting the magic core in his pocket and making sure nothing was missing, he returned to the place where he had abandoned the supplies.
Sure enough, one shouldn't have too many expectations. Apart from a few scattered arrows, no other supplies were recovered.
The package thrown on the ground was torn into pieces by wild beasts, all the dry food inside was eaten, and other things were turned into a mess, making it almost impossible to continue using it.
Looking at the human skeletons scattered around, I sighed helplessly.
"Reynold, you managed to ruin my experience. Well done, bastard!"
As for the skeletons of Xiao Luoluo who participated in the siege of me, I was too lazy to clean up and returned the same way according to the route I remembered.
Early the next morning, after walking back to Crow City, I took a hasty shower, dried my hair and went to bed.
When I woke up from hunger, it was already evening.
Woohoo, I only have one gold coin left. It only lasts for ten days at most. If I have no income, I will be hungry.
Should he go back to the forest and continue living the life of a savage?
No, I don’t want to die. I’ve had enough of those more than a month. Let’s go see if there are any suitable tasks first and make some money.
After tidying up, he closed the door and walked towards the mercenary union.
After eating something hastily in the bar of the mercenary union, I went to the mission bulletin board for e-level mercenary missions and started looking for a mission that suited me.
Speaking of which, the mercenary union has become quite deserted.
I remember when I first came to the Mercenary Guild, there was a long queue at the task handover area, but now there are only a few people waiting there.
It seems that all the remaining monsters from the beast tide outside Kerry City have been cleared away. All the high-priced hunting missions that used to occupy the vast majority are gone. No wonder there are so few mercenaries.
But how can I make money without high-priced hunting missions? The highest level e-level mission bounty is only 1 gold coin. Judging from the mission content, it seems that it will take several days to complete.
I didn't find a suitable task, so I ordered a glass of fruit wine out of boredom, sat at the table near the corner, and sipped it one sip after another.
What should I do? If there is no suitable task to earn money, why not go back to the forest to dig for gold?
Forget it, there were not many monsters in the forest before, maybe because the beast tide all ran outside, but now it would be very dangerous to go back with my level 3 strength at most, so I reject it.
Blacksmithing, making weapons and selling them?
The number of mercenaries is now starting to decrease. It is estimated that they will not make much money in a short time, and there is no sales channel for raw materials. How long will it take to sell it in a house and open a store? No.
The same applies to selling clothes, so I reject it.
Why do other people in time travel want money and beauties, but I am in such a miserable state.
He banged his head on the wooden table and rocked back and forth.
Not only did she become a lolita, she also had a headache for money, a headache!
Out of the corner of his eye, he glanced at the hotel next to the mercenary union. Countless mercenaries were tipping and stroking the woman who was accompanying them.
Suddenly I felt the cold hairs on the back of my neck stand up.
Bastard, why are you looking at that? You won't do such a thing even if you die!
Forget it all, forget it all!
He hit his head hard on the table a few times and shook his head.
I'll go to the mercenary market tomorrow to see if there's anything I can get money for.
He drank the rest of the fruit wine in a few sips, and then walked towards his home.
