Chapter 201 Going into the Dark
Mysterious meaning——Feng Zhuan Yun!
Xiao Jie whirled and swung his sword, sweeping through several bandits like a harvester. Wherever the sword passed, three fell instantly.
As soon as the body came to a stop, the last two bandits with residual health attacked from the left and right.
Before Xiao Jie could use his movement skills.
A dark shadow came up from the left, but it was Ye Luo, who instantly appeared behind a bloodthirsty bandit.
Backstab! Poof, a simple sword stabbed out, and a bloody bandit fell to death instantly.
Zombies swoop! With a sigh, the other bandit was thrown to the ground by Yeluo's zombie servants, hugged and gnawed, and made no sound in the blink of an eye.
"Good job." Xiao Jie praised, turned around and saw the corpses of bandits all over the ground - it is more convenient to level up with two people than alone.
"Ouch!" A big bear's roar came from not far away. This bear pulled three bandits away and howled as they were slashed with knives.
Fortunately, the blood is thick and the defense is high, so I can still withstand it.
"Here we come." Xiao Jie said, and slashed towards the bandit with a knife that broke the air in two.
A moment later, the last three bandits in the bandit camp were also chopped to the ground.
The entire bandit camp was completely wiped out.
Xiao Jie couldn't wait to find the treasure chest deep in the camp, opened it, and suddenly there were whiteboard equipment all over the floor.
Unfortunately, I wasn't very lucky and didn't even get a green item.
The two of them quickly picked up the junk equipment. Looking at the backpack of junk equipment, Xiao Jie really missed me.
"Oh, I'm not very lucky today. There isn't even an elite monster in this camp. I thought I would be able to reveal something good."
Ye Luo said, "Just be satisfied, it's just a brass treasure chest. This kind of shipment is normal. Besides, the efficiency of spawning monsters in one bandit camp a day like the two of us is something most people can't do." "
Xiao Jie said so in his heart.
Today is the third day after regaining Black Rock Village. In the past two days, the two of them have been working together to clean up the bandit camps in the wilderness around Black Rock Village.
There are still too few bandits near the village. The average player is very happy to fight. He gets impatient after killing a few. It takes him a long time to kill one monster. How long does it take to practice?
So he decisively invited Ye Luo to go to the bandit camp with him.
I have to say that it is really fun to level up with a strong teammate who knows how to cooperate, especially when Ye Luo also has a baby. Although the zombies she summons are not as fleshy as Xiong Da, they are still quite powerful. Bandits are not a big problem.
Two people plus a bear and a zombie, two alts at level 15 or 16, can farm monsters more efficiently than an average five-person team.
I successfully reached level 17 in two days.
Xiao Jie added all the 5 attribute points he obtained to his endurance. His Tiger Roaring Skill had reached the sixth level, and he had a full 600 points of internal strength, which was already very useful.
However, this physical strength has become a shortcoming. Whether it is combat skills or secrets, even just running, it will consume physical strength. There are very few opportunities to take medicine during the battle. In order to avoid it, you have to stop and take strong medicine from time to time. Pill, Xiao Jie could only spend 5 more valuable attribute points on endurance.
Now Xiao Jie's basic attributes are.
Constitution: 27 (equipment +2).
Stamina: 22 (equipment +2).
Strength: 22 (+2 for equipment).
Agility: 49 (equipment +5).
Except that the blood volume is still a bit low, overall he is very powerful. Fortunately, he has the red jade blood marrow, a health-supporting equipment, and the health volume of 320 is not bad.
Not only did he successfully level up in the past two days, but he also saved a lot of money these days. Selling monkey wine and secret dog food, plus the trophies he got from monsters, he saved more than 30 taels of silver. .
At this rate, even if you don't risk going into the mines and tombs, just slaying mobs every day, selling food, and saving money for equipment cheats, you can become a first-rate master in a year or two.
It can be said that he is now out of the most dangerous stage.
But Xiao Jie couldn't stop. The grudge between Liu Qiang and him would be settled sooner or later.
Now he is not sure whether Liu Qiang is aware of his existence, but he does not rule out the possibility. Danger may come at any time, and he must become stronger as soon as possible, the sooner the better.
Ye Luo looked at the time and said, "Okay, Brother Feng, that's it for today. We're going to the mine tomorrow. Let's get ready before it gets dark."
"I'm ready." Xiao Jie said. He had already prepared everything he needed to prepare.
Ye Luo said strangely: "Speaking of which, why are you playing games so eagerly? It's like something is chasing you."
Xiao Jie sighed, then smiled and said, "Why don't you tell me your story, and I'll tell you mine."
"Haha, no need."
"Don't be like this. We've been together for so long and you're still so out of touch. To be honest, I'm quite curious about how you know so much game information. I feel like there must be a story in it. Tell me about it. Maybe I can help. Please check the details."
After two days of leveling up, the relationship between the two is no longer as light as water.
At least make a few jokes.
Ye Luo smiled slightly, "How about this? When we come out of the mine, if none of us die, I will tell you about my past."
Xiao Jie was speechless for a moment, "Hey, you seem to be a bit of a flagrant."
"Ha, you still believe this?" Ye Luo asked a little funny.
Xiao Jie was quite serious about this, "I used to run a studio, and things like metaphysics sometimes really exist. The so-called metaphysics does not save evil, and krypton does not change life, so it is better not to joke casually. What's more, in this game... if you set your flag like this, something could easily happen."
"Hahaha, don't worry, I won't die if anyone dies on this trip." Ye Luo said confidently.
"Stop talking, retreat first." He summoned a donkey and rode on it and ran away.
This woman...
Back in the city, Xiao Jie sold the junk equipment he had acquired today. He finally checked the supplies prepared in his backpack. After thinking about it, he was still a little unsure.
Tomorrow we will officially go down into the mine. It is impossible to say that I am not nervous.
Having played so many games, Xiao Jie knows very well that no matter how strong the monsters on the surface are, they are limited. Usually the most terrifying enemies and the most dangerous traps are hidden in maps such as caves, tombs, and dungeons.
Otherwise, you should ask someone.
Thinking in his mind, Xiao Jie opened the QQ group.
Yinyue Suifeng: Everyone, I will go into the mine with the guild tomorrow. Do you have any suggestions?
Liu Xingyu: Damn, that’s awesome. Going into the mine at level 17? Brother, take it easy.
Northland Spear King: That’s right, I’m already level 21 and I haven’t been in a hole yet. You are so fierce.
Wentian Wuji: My suggestion is to keep a light-escape talisman with you just in case something unexpected happens. Although it is a bit expensive, it is really useful.
The light-escape talisman...that thing costs more than one million per piece, and it's priceless, so most people can't buy it.
This thing is equivalent to a town recall scroll, which can instantly teleport out of the dungeon where it is located. Although it has a casting time of a few seconds when used, it can still be regarded as a life-saving artifact in general.
However, this thing is generally not available for purchase. You can only get one by doing the task of gaining the reputation of the sect or being an expert outside the world.
Master Qingfeng almost gave me one to become an immortal, but unfortunately he gave it up later in order to worship at Xuanxu Palace...
Don't tell me that you don't have the money, even if you do, there's nowhere to do it.
Yinyue Suifeng: Can you be more realistic? You can’t get that thing.
An Ran: If you don’t have a light-escape talisman, just get a few magic walking talismans. In short, if you encounter danger, run away without hesitation. Also, remember to clear monsters as much as possible along the way, and remember the monster refresh time. Don’t be afraid of trouble, as long as you run away later. Running is easier when the road is clear.
Wentian Wuji: Yes, by the way, if you have the Condensing Light Talisman, bring a few.
Hidden Moon Suifeng: Light Condensing Talisman? That thing is very expensive, isn't it enough to bring a torch?
Anything related to spells, elixirs, etc. is not cheap. Torches are so cheap, 100 coins each.
Wentian Wuji: The light of the torch is not strong enough, and there will be blind spots. The most important thing is that the torch requires one hand, which will affect the combat effectiveness at critical moments.
Xiao Jie secretly became interested and decisively went to the auction house and bought three of them.
While operating, continue chatting with people in the group. An Ran: Don't be too nervous. As long as you don't go too deep in the mine, you should be fine. Remember to explore slowly and step by step, and don't rush in without thinking.
Niu Baoguo: I have never been in a mine, but I heard from people I know that there are a lot of zombies in the mine, so remember to bring some glutinous rice cakes.
Everyone was talking a lot and gave a lot of suggestions. It can be seen that only An Ran and Wentian Wuji here have experience in going down the cave, and the suggestions they gave are still very useful.
Yinyue Suifeng: Haha, thank you all for your suggestions, so I have a rough idea.
Xiao Jie quit the game, turned off the computer, and went to bed early that night.
Xiao Jie got up early the next morning.
At eight o'clock, Xiao Jie arrived at Black Rock Village on time. This village was very close to Laotieshan Mine. This was why the Longxiang Knights chose to regain this village before.
He first met up with Ye Luo, and then the two of them rode side by side in the direction of Luo Tieshan.
The closer they got to Luotieshan, the sparser the surrounding vegetation became. By the time the two arrived at their destination, the surroundings had become desolate.
Luotieshan is a bare stone mountain range with gravel all over it. Because it is a mine, the mountain appears blue-black, and several huge black mine caves are scattered around the mountain.
There is a small mine in it, which does not spawn monsters. It is very shallow. Many players will mine in this hole on weekdays. However, the mineral resources are not abundant, so it is slightly better than in the wild.
This has still become a treasure trove for many players.
But no one dares to enter the real Luotieshan mine.
At this time, the two came to the entrance of the main mine. The environment was rugged with strange rocks, a dark cave, and strange wind sounds could be heard at the entrance of the cave, which made people feel inexplicably scary.
Several people have come near the mine, and they are cleaning up the monsters near the mine - Shiling. This is an earth spirit monster with thick blood and high defense. It has very hard defense and requires heavy weapons to deal effective damage and kill. It's troublesome to use, but because gems occasionally explode, it's also favored by some players with ax and hammer weapons.
Xiao Jie actually saw Dongfang Sheng, using the ghost iron halberd to smash against a stone spirit.
boom! The stone spirit monster was smashed into pieces and turned into rubble on the ground.
"Haha, I exploded a piece of jade! I made a profit - Hey, Brother Feng, you are here too, and Sister Yeluo."
Xiao Jie took a look at the people around him. They were all core members. Seeing how they were fighting monsters, it was obvious that they were familiar with each other.
"Have you also joined the core members?"
"Not yet. We are still in the inspection period. Brother Feng, do you mind?"
"Uh? What do I mind?"
"That's good, that's good."
At this time, players continued to gather, and several stone spirits were quickly killed. Everyone was waiting at the entrance of the cave, looking inside. Everyone was filled with anticipation and apprehension, excitement and uneasiness.
At nine o'clock, Qianlong Wuyong finally arrived.
"Hey, why are there so many people?"
Indeed, compared to the team of more than fifty people three days ago, only more than thirty people came today.
"Why else? I'm probably too scared to come." Xianyu said with great disdain.
Xiao Jie was not surprised by this. Although he had successfully recovered Black Rock Village three days ago, many people were still frightened when they heard that they were going into the mine.
Everyone is here to make a living. Why not go to the mines all the time? Why not fight the monsters around the village and gradually save money to buy martial arts secrets?
However, wealth can be found in danger, and there are many people who are courageous.
Xiao Jie counted thirty-seven people in total, which was enough.
And in this way, there is no need to worry about too many gangsters. Those who dare to come must have certain strength.
Qianlong Youyong said: "There should be fewer people if there are fewer people. This cave is extremely dangerous and cannot be forced. Our goal today is to explore the periphery of the mine. This is not too dangerous because there are already people in the mine before." After exploring it, at least judging from the current information, there are no too dangerous monsters on the first floor of the mine except for some mining zombies.
Let’s get familiar with the terrain of the first level first. Once the exploration is clear, we will go deep into the second level tomorrow. We will proceed step by step to ensure that each section of the mine is safe before going into the next section. This way, we can ensure the safety of personnel to the greatest extent. . "
Xiao Jie thought to himself that it seemed that everyone wanted to go together.
"But it is a cave after all, and no one knows what will happen below, so everyone must look after each other, obey orders, and never act impulsively.
The guests, as well as the core members, you all have to play a backbone role.
According to our previous grouping pattern, I will lead Group 123 to form the forward team.
Salted Fish - You lead Group 456 to be responsible for cutting off the rear.
Yinyue Suifeng, you will lead Groups 7 and 8. In addition, Deidara will be with you. Be sure to ensure Deidara's safety. This is your main priority. Task.
Okay, if there's no problem, let's go. "
After assigning the task, Qianlong Wuyong led the 123 group into the mine.
Seeing the dozen or so people in front holding torches walking into the darkness, Xiao Jie took a deep breath and led the squadron in.
Finally, there are the three groups of Xianyu and the Queen.
As soon as you enter, your surroundings are immediately swallowed up by darkness.
The inside of the cave is extremely dark, and it’s not always a good thing that the details in the game are too good. If you change the caves in other games, although the light will be very dark, you can still see something. After all, the player’s gaming experience must be considered.
The caves in some games are no different from the outdoors except that they are called caves.
But the cave in front of me is extremely dark. If there is no light source, there is really no light at all. There is only a small area illuminated by the light of the torch.
Outside the torches, it was dim and dark.
After walking for more than ten steps, when I looked behind me, I could only see a circular hole, which was getting further and further away, getting smaller and smaller, and quickly disappeared as the mine twisted.
Xiao Jie felt slightly uneasy. He now understood why going into the mine was so dangerous. The flaw in his vision alone was fatal enough.
There is a monster hiding anywhere, even if you can't see it, you will be ambushed if you are not careful.
If the light source is lost, then we really have no choice but to wait for death.
"Everyone, cheer up, Ye Luo - can you see your surroundings clearly?"
"No problem." Ye Luo's profession is a night walker. This profession has the ability of dark vision, which allows him to see clearly even in dark mines, which reassures Xiao Jie a lot.
In fact, assassins also have low-light vision capabilities, but they are much inferior to night crawlers, and they can only barely see in the dark.
After walking along the mine for a while, a strange roar came from the front.
"It's a zombie!"
Xiao Jie looked forward. The front team's torch light was busy, and he could see Qianlong Wuyong directing his team members to kill several charred humanoid monsters.
Because of being in the cave, the sound became extremely terrifying after refraction.
Xiao Jie observed it for a while and then felt relieved. The mining zombies were not exactly the same as the zombies he had encountered before.
Each mining zombie carries a basket of ore on its back and a pickaxe in its hand. The surface of its body gradually turns to stone due to long-term contact with the ore. It is a monster with extremely high toughness.
Fortunately, like ordinary zombies, they move slowly and have no intelligence at all. All you need to do is master the distance and hit them with heavy weapons.
Deidara was a little nervous.
"I said, all of you, please stay close to me, don't let me get fooled by the monster."
As he spoke, he also summoned three floating fireballs, surrounding them, which seemed to be some kind of defensive spell and also had a lighting function.
Xiao Jie gave him a confused look, "Deidara, are you not good at melee combat?"
"Nonsense, I'm a pure magician. I don't have many basic attributes - except for physical fitness. I'll be useless if I get punched in the face. You have to protect me."
One team member comforted him: "Deidara, don't worry, the front team has cleared all the monsters, and we in the back row don't need to fight..."
Ye Luo suddenly interrupted at this time: "That's not necessarily the case - be careful, the front team has missed a monster, prepare to fight!"
