Chapter 26 The competition is fierce and the gap is narrowing
[Please note that monsters in advanced areas will become more powerful. Survivors are asked to choose carefully during the exploration process. 】
“Higher area?”
Han Xing looked around and found that there were indeed many clouds of different sizes in the distant sky.
The number of clouds is much greater than that in my current area.
"It turns out that I have been staying in the novice area before. Only after defeating the most powerful monster in this area can I go to the advanced map."
Han Xing seems to understand this. Some operating mechanisms of the game, shook his head, "Forget it, that area is still far away from me. At the current speed of travel, it will take at least four or five hours. Let's talk about it tomorrow."
Thinking of this, Han Xing decided to deal with the loot in front of him first.
He walked to the body of the gray rock wolf and decomposed it directly.
[Successfully decomposed the gray rock giant wolf corpse, recovered 13 fine iron arrows, obtained one-star high-quality animal hide*1, obtained 104kg of thick wolf meat, obtained beast heart*1, and obtained strong blood* 5……】
"High-quality animal skin?"
Han Xing looked at the thick fur on the ground, "I remember it can be used to make blue leather armor equipment, what a good thing!"
As for other things, A beast's heart and a strong man's blood, he hasn't figured out the use yet, so he put them away for now.
There is nothing good in the territory of this giant gray rock wolf, but when Han Xing merged the empty islands, he found some unexpected surprises.
Under the moonlight, on the edge of the giant wolf's territory, there are several rocky territories shining with silver light.
“There’s a baby!” Han Xing’s eyes lit up.
He walked over, then squatted on the ground and observed it.
Han Xing said with some uncertainty: "There should be some kind of ore in this."
"Would you like to dig it out?"
Thinking of this, Han Xing took out the ore from his backpack. He took out a pickaxe and started hammering hard.
bite! bite! bite!
The sound of metal hitting stone kept ringing.
When Han Xing knocked off the stones on the surface of these pieces of ore, finally revealing the silvery ore inside, the system prompt also appeared at this time.
【Mithril ore needs to be smelted to extract the mithril inside. 】
"Smelting?"
Han Xing was confused: "I don't have the equipment. Do I need to build a smelting workshop?"
Although Mithril is a good thing, it is also made. Main material for other blue equipment.
But it seems that at the current stage of the survivors, it is not possible to refine this metal.
Unless the later version is updated, the territory construction function will be enabled.
At that time, survivors can build various facilities in their own territory, such as smelting workshops, weapons laboratories, fortifications, and even taverns, etc.
Currently, Mithril can only be found in treasure chests with a small probability.
Han Xing was able to receive more than 20 mithril ingots before, and it was also due to the efforts of the European emperors among the players. Of course, the chance of this is very small.
Since Mithril could not be extracted for the time being, Han Xing stuffed all the Mithril ore into the storage box.
Then he looked at the standings.
First place: Xinghe, territory points 184.
Second place: Whisperer, territory points 162.
Third place: Black Hawk, 123 territory points.
Fourth place: Papaya Star Spirit, 115 territory points.
Fifth place...
"Huh? Is the Whisperer catching up soon? Black Hawk also surpassed the Papaya Protoss and took the third position?"
Han Xing was a little surprised when he saw the standings.
The gap between him and the Whisperer has gradually narrowed, and the other party is also working hard to catch up.
But after thinking about it, although he is now equipped with almost a complete set of green equipment, the attribute gap between him and other survivors is actually not that big.
As the survivors continue to explore outside, they will also find various equipment, skill books, etc. in other territories.
Even if you don’t use it yourself, you can get it from the trading channel for exchange.
The strength of the survivors is steadily improving, especially the top ones among them, which are improving rapidly.
Of course, there is also a corresponding price behind this.
Han Xing saw that the 10,000 survivors in Area 107 had turned into 9,632.
This means that in three days, more than 300 people lost their lives here alone!
According to this ratio, the current number of human survivors’ deaths has probably reached a terrifying number.
Although most of the people here died in accidents, as the difficulty of survival increases and the monsters encountered become stronger and stronger, this number will continue to soar.
At this time, Cheng Jianyong in the discussion group said: "Brother Xing, there is something about that Whisperer. He is almost catching up with you!"
Since knowing that Han Xing is Xinghe, Cheng Jianyong I have been paying attention to the rankings. Han Xing replied: "Well, he is indeed very strong. If I guessed correctly, he should be a mage."
"Mage?"
"Yes. "
Han Xing affirmed: "Four of the five skills of the mage in the early stage are lethal skills. As the captain of the team, the Whisperer has probably gathered them all with the help of the team members. With the addition of equipment, the mage's exploration speed is indeed much faster than that of other professions."
"That's it." Cheng Jianyong was stunned and continued to ask: "Brother Xing, how do you know this?"
"Read more about the game introduction and you will know."
Han Xing paused and continued: "By the way, what are your current rankings?"
"Huh?" Cheng Jianyong seemed a little confused, "Brother Xing, didn't you look at the rankings? Brother Yun and I have both entered the rankings!"
"You didn't say your virtual names, how could I know? What's your name?"
"You didn't even ask."
Han Xing: "..."
"Don't be shy, tell me what your name is."
Cheng Jianyong laughed, "Okay, my name is 'Lonely Brave Man', and Brother Yun's name is 'Yun Tianming'."
"..."
Han Xing: "Good luck. The second name..."
"Yes, I also think the name Yun Tianming is very good."
"I'm talking about you."
Cheng Jianyong: "???"
At this time, Shen Yun was still collecting points overnight and did not see the conversation between the two people in the discussion group, otherwise he would have been torn apart by Cheng Jianyong. Hour.
Korean star opened the rankings and was shocked to see that the name of 'Lonely Brave' had been ranked 65th, currently having 33 points.
And ‘Yun Tianming’, also known as Shen Yun, has actually broken into the top forty, occupying the 37th place with a score of 57 points.
Han Xing was a little surprised, but after thinking about it, it was expected.
After all, I gave them almost a complete set of high-quality green equipment, as well as so many skill books, plus a large amount of spiritual spring water, so they can explore boldly without any scruples.
It is natural to have this speed of reaching the rankings.
After closing the chat, Han Xing continued to approach other clouds.
After upgrading to level 3, the speed of Sky Island becomes 8 meters/second, which is equivalent to a speed of 28.8 kilometers per hour, which is already quite fast.
While driving on the island, Han Xing also took the time to glance at the chat channel.
After a whole day of fighting and exploring, the survivors shared their experiences inside.
"Hey, I'm really unlucky today. When I was exploring the territory, I encountered an elite-level jungle tiger and was almost bitten to death by it. If I hadn't been able to use the ancestral magic skill of sliding shovel, I would have been really lucky. The explanation is there.”
“What do you mean, upstairs. I encountered a huge bear today, and it broke more than a dozen of my ribs with one slap. Fortunately, I am a sportsman. I carried it for more than ten kilometers, and it didn’t let me go until the bear was exhausted.”
“You guys are really awesome. Compared with you, I was bitten by a five-step snake. One bite seems nothing."
"Brother, you can still speak after being bitten by a five-step snake?"
"Oh, because I pulled out its fangs and bit it. It's okay, it's very comfortable, and I'm going to keep it as a pet."
"..."
"..."
"Brother, you are so perverted..."
A speechless symbol appeared in the chat channel.
At this time, someone said: "Don't be joking. Look, the boss of Papaya Star Spirit has released a guide again."
"The boss has released a guide again? I just read his post before and followed the prompts. I bypassed several clouds hiding monsters."
"Me too. Thanks to the guide of Papaya Star Spirit, I easily opened a bronze treasure chest."
"Look. See what it is this time?”
Everyone clicked in and saw that it was a strategy post posted by Papaya Star Spirit, and there were hundreds of replies in a short period of time.
But the title of the post is different from before, but reveals a serious style.
《Beware! Dark Elf Team! 》
