Lin Ze looked at the scavenger in front of him, who was exactly the same as before in terms of clothing and appearance, and felt a little speechless.
It seems that it is not easy to distinguish these guys. If they don't report their numbers, they really can't identify who is who.
For battles related to monsters, there is no need to pay points for subsequent processing. Scavenger No. 638 bowed to Lin Ze and quickly began to deal with the corpses and traces of the battle.
"Don't the memories of those three guys need to be erased?" Lin Ze asked, pointing to the three young men who were unconscious on the ground. He noticed that Scavenger No. 638 did not seem to have such an intention.
Scavenger No. 638 grinned, showing horrifying jagged teeth, and said respectfully: "No, Mr. Crow, the monster just now is quite special. Human beings who have absorbed their essence will have some memory loss and will completely forget it when they wake up.
Just tonight."
"I see."
Lin Ze nodded suddenly. No wonder the previous victims didn't remember what happened. He also speculated whether the scavengers were behind it.
After reviewing what happened tonight, Lin Ze roughly guessed that the monster's process of finding its prey was nothing more than pretending to be a drunk pretty girl sleeping on the roadside, and then luring men with ill intentions to pick up the corpse, etc.
When the other party took her to an uninhabited and remote place and prepared to commit misdeeds, he revealed his true face and sucked the other party's essence.
I remember Luo Luo said that monsters feed on human beings' negative emotions. After what happened tonight, Lin Ze felt that one more thing should be added. Monsters are very good at using and mobilizing human emotions.
Just like this monster whose attribute is desire, it knows how to exploit the desire of human men. Once it can't bear it, it will suck away the essence and desire.
Like the three young men in the state just now, they were obviously overwhelmed by desire, and there must be monsters at work.
Two or three minutes later, Scavenger No. 638 had finished handling everything and was about to bow and leave when he was stopped by Lin Ze.
"Where are the points for hunting monsters?"
"It has been delivered. You can see it when you log in to the game."
"I understand, thank you!"
"You're welcome!"
After saying this, Scavenger No. 638 slowly submerged into the shadow door on the wall as if melting into water.
Lin Ze glanced at the three young men lying on the ground, ignored them, and turned to leave.
Silence returned to the park.
After a long time, the sound of hurried footsteps disturbed the silence. A girl wearing a cap and a mask quickly rushed into the park. Her eyes fell on the trio, and she concentrated on sensing the thin scent of monsters in the air, with annoyance in her eyes.
The color fades away in a flash.
"Damn it! You're a step too late!"
Back in the dormitory, Liu Jinghe and Chen Qigong were already fast asleep. Seeing Lin Ze return intact, Qin Sheng breathed a sigh of relief and patted him on the shoulder, but did not ask any more questions, which saved Lin Ze the time to explain.
After turning off the lights and lying down on the bed, Lin Ze immediately took out his sunglasses and put them on.
[Kill Turvi-level monsters and get 100 points]
As soon as I logged into the game, a message like this popped up in front of me.
"100 points!" Lin Ze couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth slightly.
Sure enough, hunting monsters is the best way to gain points. Just one monster brought him 100 points, and now his total points reached 112 points.
After sighing happily for a while, Lin Ze entered "The Swordsman in the Wasteland".
Four days have passed since graduation, but Lin Ze has been staying in the house. Except for buying food, he almost never goes out, which makes the Swordsmiths Guild and Ding Beiye who have been secretly paying attention to him very puzzled.
As soon as an ordinary trainee swordsmith graduates, he usually prepares for a day or two before setting off to hunt insect beasts. He wishes he could improve his strength as soon as possible. Lin Ze, on the other hand, has been silent for four days and has no idea what he is doing.
Fortunately, today, they finally saw Lin Ze leaving the house, wearing combat uniform and carrying a tactical backpack, striding toward the exit of the settlement.
The tactical backpack contains prepared maps, dry food, drinking water and other wilderness survival supplies.
It is worth mentioning that most of the materials, including combat uniforms, tactical backpacks and maps, are given away for free by the Swordsmith Guild and are benefits for newcomers.
The close-fitting combat uniform perfectly set off Lin Ze's slender and strong figure. His physical fitness far exceeded the average level in this world, making his spirit and appearance look particularly heroic. Coupled with the logo of the Swordsmiths Guild displayed on the combat uniform,
, on the way to the exit gate, it unexpectedly attracted many envious and admiring looks.
Lin Ze seemed unaware and looked up at the high wall in the distance.
Insect beasts in this world usually live in urban ruins, but there are a few that run into the wild and get close to residential areas, threatening human life.
In order to prevent attacks by insects and beasts, a huge wall with a height of 20 meters was built outside the Blackstone settlement area to surround the entire settlement area.
This measure has indeed greatly reduced the frequency of insect invasions, but from time to time there are still incidents where insect beasts accidentally pass through the high wall and rush into the outer area to wreak havoc and kill humans. This is why the security of the outer area has been criticized.
one.
The high wall has four entrances and exits, located in four directions. Lin Ze chose the northern exit because his destination was the ruins of the C7 city located 18 kilometers north of the settlement area.
According to the degree of danger of urban ruins, they are divided into four levels: s, a, b and c from high to low, and then numbered and sorted respectively. This is a unified regulation for all residential areas. Among them, urban ruins of level C are the least dangerous and are the most suitable.
Novice apprentice swordsmith's experience.
After passing through the high-walled gate, there is a ruined wilderness outside. The ground is covered with gravel and sand, and you can occasionally see bones covered with gnawed marks.
Walking on the desolate sandy ground, Lin Ze carefully guarded his surroundings. His white knife had already been unsheathed, guarding against possible attacks.
In fact, when a novice swordsmith like him goes out to hunt insects and beasts for the first time, it is best to be led by an experienced senior. The three major organizations all provide similar services. Even registered members can
One can be hired from the Bladesmiths Guild by spending credits.
Although the cost is high, life safety is obviously more important.
However, Lin Ze himself hid a lot of secrets, and having a companion to accompany him would make him feel constrained, so after careful consideration, he decided to go alone.
With his strength far exceeding that of ordinary newcomers, as long as he is careful, there shouldn't be much danger.
Following the wild survival knowledge taught in class, Lin Ze avoided paths with a large number of insect and animal footprints along the way. He spent the entire morning and finally arrived at a ruins.
In front of him was an asphalt street, covered with moss and lush vegetation, with high-rise concrete buildings on both sides, occasionally interspersed with two- or three-story shops. All buildings, without exception, had collapsed and were dilapidated.
The ground has turned into rubble, and some of them still have a crumbling wall standing alone, covered with vines and moss, as if after a few more years, it will be completely buried by these densely growing plants.
There are a lot of debris scattered on the ground. These things have obviously gone through a lot of time. They were soaked by heavy rains and covered with dust. They have long turned into hard and black stone-like objects, and their original appearance cannot be seen at all.
Only the rough outline of the shape remains.
Are these city ruins?
Lin Ze looked at the situation in front of him in a daze.
From the dilapidated and desolate environment around us, we can vaguely see that human civilization once prospered, but after the disaster struck, everything was destroyed.
Although he knew that this was just a game world, Lin Ze still felt a little emotional.
After a while, he regained his composure, took out a map from his tactical backpack, followed the marks on the map, and hurried toward his destination cautiously but quickly.
As a C-level urban ruins suitable for novice apprentice swordsmiths to experience, this area has been explored by the swordsmiths in the Blackstone settlement area, and a map has been drawn in detail, which identifies the places where insect beasts frequently haunt.
, and the place Lin Ze is going to next is a square where a large number of steel soldiers live.
