Chapter 66: Duel with bandits
Xiao Jie made his choice without hesitating for too long.
Although the spinning slash skill is not bad, it can be regarded as a semi-rushing skill, and the damage is not bad, but compared with cutting in two, it obviously does not have much advantage.
The damage of three knives is not as good as the damage of one severing two, which is very embarrassing.
When it comes to output, the priority is to use a clean cut in two.
Although the lazy donkey rolling skill has an unpleasant name and can only be tried when downed, the more displacement skills the better.
At least it can be used to dodge some additional attacks after being knocked down.
Xiao Jie decisively chose the lazy donkey rolling skill.
For another skill, he chose the black tiger to dig out the heart. Brutal collision requires a shield. Xiao Jie is currently using a shield as a temporary measure and has no plans to take the shield battle route. Learning this skill is of little significance.
The Black Tiger's Heart Digging can be used in some specific situations to interrupt the enemy's battle or break concentration.
Xiao Jie spent 2,000 yuan to learn these two skills.
Seeing that there were only a few hundred coins left in his bag, Xiao Jie sighed. If you don't get rid of the old ones, you can't get new ones. It doesn't matter. As long as you become stronger, you can earn back the money sooner or later.
Okay, go and repair the weapon first, and then go level up when you're ready.
After bidding farewell to Tie Qianli, he came to the blacksmith shop and asked Wang Kai to repair weapons.
"Brother, you've practiced very hard at this level. You've reached level 5 so quickly. Why do you have to go out soon?"
"Yeah, I feel like I've found some rhythm."
The two were talking when a line of golden fonts suddenly appeared on the screen.
[World Announcement: The ancient contract has been revealed, and the call of the old land is issued again.
Those exiled returnees from the other side of the starry sky, the long-lost home has once again opened the door... the new returnees are about to arrive! 】
Xiao Jie immediately cheered up.
"Brother Wang Kai, what does this announcement mean?"
"What else can it mean? The system has issued an activation code. It seems that a new person will appear soon."
Wang Kai explained, with an excited look on his face - it seems like another business is coming.
Seeing that Xiao Jie was still a little confused, he explained in detail.
"Announcements like this will appear every once in a while in the game. Every time an announcement appears, the system will randomly send activation codes to real people. Generally, they are sent to senior gamers and professional masters, but some Sometimes they will be sent to some inexplicable people, including students in school, white-collar workers in the company, and everyone else.
I personally speculate that the system is likely to issue activation codes based on the number of game player deaths. "
Xiao Jie wondered: "Oh, is there any basis for this?"
"It stands to reason that if you keep posting like this, there should be more and more players in the game, right?
However, according to the information provided by some of my old customers, there are almost that many players in this game. Although there is no exact number, generally speaking, everyone thinks that there will be no more than 10,000 people, and maybe only three to five people. Thousands of people.
So it is very possible that hundreds or thousands of people died in the game, and then the system sent out a wave of activation codes to make up the number of players. "
Xiao Jiexin said that if this is the case, then the old players should gradually settle down. In other words, while new people are constantly entering, the top player group may already be of a very high level, which will eventually lead to polarization among gamers.
Of course, this game is quite special, and high-level players may also overturn, so the number of remaining top players will not be too many, but there will definitely be a group of the strongest players. If they have not died, they must be very strong by now. , I don’t know if Liu Qiang is among this group of players.
Xiao Jie looked at the small square in the center of the village, where he had gone online.
Wang Kai said: "Don't look at it. It will take at least a few hours to get started, and generally there are only a few people in a novice village-here, your knife is repaired."
Xiao Jie looked back and took the weapon, "How many novice villages are there in this game?"
"Not sure, but there must be dozens."
At this time, I Want to Become an Immortal is also online.
"Brother Feng, have you seen the world announcement?"
"I saw it, but don't worry about it. We have to practice. You should hurry up and prepare. It's time to buy medicine, and it's time to learn skills."
"Brother Feng, where are we going to level up today?"
"Let's go kill bandits today."
This time, Xiao Jie was going to challenge a bandit to test his fighting ability. If you can win relatively easily, you can consider recruiting two bandits to fight at once, so that there will be many more bandits to fight on the hillside.
There is no need to go around in panic like before just to find a good lone person to start with.
"Okay, I'm going to get ready."
Ten minutes later, the two met at the entrance of the village.
"Haha, I just learned a combat skill - sweeping strike, which is absolutely powerful. This time I want to let those bandits know how powerful I am!"
I want to become a fairy and said with confidence that now that he is fully equipped, the load has become [heavy] anyway, so he simply doesn’t consider mobility, so he bought another iron bag and wore a suit of iron scales. Armor, holding a giant axe, and looking like a heavily armored warrior, looks very intimidating.
Xiao Jie, on the other hand, has a completely different style of painting. He wears a hat, leather armor, trousers and leather boots, with a cape blowing in the wind behind him, and carrying a wild goose feather knife, giving him the appearance of a swordsman in the Jianghu.
The two of them walked out of Ginkgo Village with sufficient supplies.
As the saying goes, those who are skilled in art are bold. Both of them have reached level 5, have accumulated a set of equipment, and their skills have also been enhanced. At this time, facing the gloomy and desolate forest around them, they are no longer as frightened as before.
After walking through the woods and over the hillside, I saw the bandits appearing in front of me from a distance.
Still starting from the edge, Xiao Jie said: "I'll pull one to try a one-on-one fight first. You don't want to fight first. If you can fight, you can try a one-on-one fight again. If conditions permit, we can pull two at a time."
I wanted to become an immortal and said excitedly, "Okay, I'll help you conquer the formation!"
Xiao Jie shot out an arrow. The bandit received the arrow and rushed over immediately.
"Meatball, stay aside and watch my performance."
Xiao Jie said, switching directly to a single sword and facing him.
Seeing the bandit wielding a machete and slashing his head, Xiao Jie seized the opportunity and used it directly——
Blade counterattack!
The counterattack failed... A few tenths of a second earlier than expected, Xiao Jie missed the target and was slashed by the opponent's sword instead.
-
21!
Fortunately, although this equipment is a mixture of leather and cloth, it is still somewhat defensive, and the damage from this knife is acceptable.
Xiao Jie did not panic. This situation had been expected for a long time. The skill of counterattack could not be achieved without dozens or hundreds of trainings.
A kite turned over and distanced itself.
One knife - two cuts!
When the bandit rushed up, he had just finished charging up his combat skills, and slashed the bandit in the chest with his sword.
-
54!
The bandit didn't care about the pain and slashed with his knife, but Xiao Jie immediately rolled and rolled two or three meters away.
These 18 points of agility and light weight make his movements extremely light.
After getting up, immediately charge up again.
One knife - two cuts!
It was a completely repetitive routine. Xiao Jie relied on the extremely fast speed of his combat skills to deal a high burst of damage every time the bandit rushed up, and then quickly rolled aside.
After two rounds, the bandit's health was running low.
The bandit roared, turned around and ran away.
Xiao Jie sneered in his heart, doing this again?
He chased after him without hesitation. The bandit ran a few steps and suddenly leaned forward to press the knife, making a movement of accumulating power. A layer of scarlet halo suddenly appeared on the muscles all over his body.
Xiao Jie did not run away, but approached him directly.
Whirlpool——
Black Tiger takes out his heart!
The moment the bandit swung his sword, Xiao Jie punched him in the chest.
With a muffled groan, the roundhouse slash was directly broken, and it was stiffened.
This was actually a bit risky at the moment, but Xiao Jie had completely mastered the rhythm of the battle at this time.
Chop left, chop right! After two sword blows, the bandit had only a trace of health left. The bandit roared and slashed out again. However, Xiao Jie did not roll over. He walked sideways like a leisurely stroll, avoiding the bandit's dying blow in a desperate situation, and made a sideways movement. Cut, the blade swept across the bandit's neck, and a stream of blood mist shot out.
The bandit staggered forward two steps, and the headless body slumped to the ground behind Xiao Jie.
