As the final exam approaches, the atmosphere in the school gradually becomes solemn and tense, and students can be seen everywhere rushing to the self-study classroom or library with books in hand.
Lin Ze is naturally also a member of the self-study army.
After returning from the library, he habitually turned on his computer and searched for recent abnormal events on the Internet. As expected, he found very little, mostly headline-grabbing news.
However, on the school's Weibo, Lin Ze saw someone mentioning that two girls had a fight in the park, which ended up requiring the police to stop and mediate. It was confirmed that the two girls had been close friends before that.
Coincidentally, someone commented below that they also saw a similar thing. It was also two girls who were close to each other who turned against each other in the blink of an eye and started tearing each other off on the spot. The place where it happened was exactly the same.
Lin Ze carefully read the descriptions of the two people to make sure that they did not see the same thing, and couldn't help but think to himself.
It is not uncommon for two girls who are good friends to suddenly fall out and fight. After all, there are so many plastic sisters in the world, but two very similar things happened in the same place one after another, which makes people think deeply.
Keeping the address of the park in his mind, Lin Ze decided to find time to investigate after the final exam.
Late at night, he logged into "Wasteland Swordsman" as usual.
Standing among the desolate ruins and stones, Lin Ze looked up at the sky and found that the sun was gradually setting and dusk was approaching, so he decided to return to the Black Stone settlement.
The food in his backpack was almost finished, and it was time to go back and replenish it.
As of today, Lin Ze has been in the ruins of b3 city for a month, but he has only killed 5 holy singing insects. The absorbed sacred attribute soul energy is only 0.1%, which is still far from 1%.
Most of the energy and time were spent on cleaning up the insect swarms guarding the Holy Calling Insects, which seriously slowed down the progress. Lin Ze had already begun to consider whether to hire a few formal swordsmiths to help kill the insect beasts.
Anyway, as long as he deals with and kills the Holy Insect in the end, that's fine.
However, after this month, in addition to the progress of the soul knife, I have gained a lot in other aspects.
First, 'Insect Hunter III' has been achieved, and 20 points were awarded. As expected by Lin Ze, the condition for achieving the achievement is to kill 10,000 insect beasts. By analogy, the next 'Insect Hunter IV'
''s achievement condition is mostly to kill 100,000 insect beasts, and he has already completed about 15% of it.
Furthermore, frequent battles have allowed Lin Ze's sword skills to break through to lv4, and his qi has also risen to lv3. The total amount has increased significantly, and the qi will not be completely consumed after only releasing the flame sword qi seven or eight times.
.
Now Lin Ze can condense the Dao Gang in an instant, which can be regarded as truly instantaneous.
Finally, physical fitness increased by 1 point, reaching 24.
The world of "Wasteland Swordsman" does not have a 50% training effect bonus, and because it is more difficult to increase physical fitness later in life, even though Lin Ze has been in this world for three or four months, he has been practicing or practicing for most of the time.
Combat and physical fitness only increased by 3 points, which was extremely slow.
"After all, it's not a 'body training' game."
Shaking his head, Lin Ze set off to leave the ruins of the b3 city.
It was late at night when he returned to the settlement, so he simply went back to his residence and went to the Swordsmiths Guild tomorrow to exchange for insect cores and supplies.
Approaching the door, Lin Ze lowered his head and glanced at a hair stuck to the crack of the door. Seeing that there was no sign of movement, he opened the door and walked in.
Throwing his backpack on the sofa, Lin Ze walked to the corner of the living room and turned on the light. When the corner of his eye fell on the edge of the window, his eyes couldn't help but condense.
After Ding Beiye sent someone to attack him, Lin Ze's vigilance increased greatly. In order to prevent someone from sneaking into his home when he went out, he would use his hair to make a simple warning mechanism at the door and window every time he went out.
Whenever someone sneaks into the house from these places, they will definitely touch these hairs.
At this time, the hair on the edge of the living room window showed signs of movement.
Withdrawing his gaze, Lin Ze slowly took out the white knife from his waist. He did not search around, but stood on the spot, looking at the living room, bathroom and second floor calmly, without any trace of anxiety in his expression.
It seemed that Lin Ze had realized that something was wrong, or that he was confident in his own strength. After a stalemate for more than ten minutes, there was a sudden noise in the bathroom, followed by a man walking out.
The man had a vicissitudes of life, a full beard, and was wearing a shabby dark green coat that was stained with dust. He looked very desolate, comparable to the residents of the slums.
However, the white sword held in the opponent's hand clearly demonstrated his identity as a swordsmith.
"Who are you?" Lin Ze asked lightly.
The bearded man did not answer. Instead, he looked him up and down, curled his lips and smiled: "I can't tell you are quite smart. You can actually detect my intrusion. No wonder I need to take action myself."
After a pause, he continued to ask, "Let me ask you, was Ding Beiye killed by you?"
"I see, Ding Jin sent you here."
As soon as Lin Ze finished speaking, a slight chi chi sound suddenly sounded in his ears, followed by a sudden pain in his left shoulder. At some point, there was a two-inch long wound on it, and blood flowed out from it.
"I advise you to answer honestly!" The bearded man sneered, "Otherwise, it will be your neck that is cut off next time!"
"Ding Beiye was indeed killed by me."
Feeling the pain coming from his shoulder, Lin Ze couldn't help but narrow his eyes. He answered casually, raised his head and looked around, only to find that there was nothing in the air, and he didn't know where the attack just came from.
"Don't look anymore, I have already laid a dragnet in this living room. Even a sixth-level swordsmith can't expect to break through easily, let alone a trainee swordsmith like you!" The bearded man couldn't help but smile after getting the information he wanted.
Qiao, "If that person hadn't asked me to catch you alive, you would have turned into a puddle of meat the moment you entered the living room!"
Seeing the complacent expression of the bearded man, Lin Ze was a little surprised. He didn't expect that this guy who looked like he could not give in to the poor was actually an official swordsmith. Ding Jin seemed to be serious about it.
, actually sent an official swordsmith to deal with him.
But, what is the opponent's soul knife ability?
Lin Ze was still thinking, but the bearded man had lost his patience. The ferocious look in his eyes flashed away, and he was ready to take Lin Ze away.
He raised his hand and made a swipe of the knife. In an instant, a dense chissing sound suddenly exploded in the void, and countless invisible slashes suddenly appeared, attacking Lin Ze from all directions like a sudden rain.
Just as the bearded man said, he wanted to catch someone alive, so all his chops were aimed at Lin Ze's limbs, with the intention of destroying the latter's ability to move.
However, what stunned him was that the expected scene of blood splattering and Lin Ze falling to the ground howling miserably did not appear. Those invisible attacks fell on Lin Ze, just like pebbles thrown into the water, except for causing ripples.
Outside of the ripples, there is no half-filament effect.
"What's going on!?"
The bearded man had a look of surprise on his face. After a closer look, he discovered that the surface of Lin Ze's body seemed to be covered with an invisible layer of defense, which resisted his attack.
"Damn it, it's the soul knife's characteristic! But it shouldn't be. Isn't this guy a trainee swordsmith? Even if the soul knife's characteristic is activated, he can't block my attack!" The bearded man was extremely surprised.
"It's my turn!"
Lin Ze's indifferent words woke the bearded man out of his astonishment. When the latter came back to his senses, he saw Lin Ze swiping a white knife, and the silver blade was suddenly ignited with raging flames.
Seeing this scene, the bearded man's expression changed drastically, and he immediately realized that something was wrong. However, before he could react, Lin Ze slashed out with his knife, and a bright red line in the void instantly took shape, turning into a blazing and terrifying flaming knife.
Qi, like an arrow from a string, strikes quickly.
Before the flaming sword energy came, the raging hot breath roasted the bearded man's hair and beard into curling up. He didn't care to think about why Lin Ze's strength was much higher than the intelligence showed, and subconsciously dodged to the side, dangerously
Narrowly dodged the incoming flame sword energy.
Unfortunately, before he could show his joy, the flame sword energy that passed by suddenly expanded and deformed, and exploded suddenly the next second. The blazing flames and violent shock waves hit his back at the same time, and he was violently lifted.
Fly out.
In mid-air, the bearded man looked pale and spat out a large mouthful of blood. After landing, he screamed miserably. The clothes on his back had been burned to ashes by the flames, and his bare back was scorched black, exuding a strange fragrance.
