Chapter 249: The first death
Translator: 549690339
“Thank you, I’ll think about it.”
The task of killing mutated ants was surprisingly high, which made li xiaonian feel very uncomfortable.
Although the low-level monsters in star field did not attack players, they would be attacked once they entered their territory.
When players fought with monsters, it was not like they would punch each other. It was a life-and-death battle, not much different from the real world.
There were no players forming a party at the village entrance, so li xiaonian could only walk to the mutated ants ‘area.
Walking out of the new netherworld village, he passed through a green grassland.
Li xiaonian’s face was filled with vigilance as soon as he entered the unsafe area.
In front of them, a five-man team was skillfully surrounding a wild boar. The wild boar’s body was huge, and the players standing in front of it looked very small. Each player was only the size of a boar’s leg.
BOOM!
The wild boar stomped its foot and tried to stomp the defensive player to death, but the player was very agile. He rolled forward and hit the wild boar’s front leg with his shield, causing the wild boar to lose its balance.
Bang! Bang!
Puchi!
Bang ~
As for the rest of the team members, increase the firepower output. Some use guns, some use bows and arrows, and some use long swords.
The wild boar’s HP was decreasing bit by bit.
The whole process lasted for more than ten minutes before the five of them finally killed the wild boar. Everyone heaved a sigh of relief. It could be said that as long as there was a slight mistake in the process, there was a possibility of death.
Li xiaonian looked at it for a while and muttered to himself, ” a level 1 wild boar is already so ferocious. I hope it’s not too exaggerated for a level 2 mutated ant.
The monsters in ” star field ” were surprisingly large in size. Very few of them were of the same size as the players. If they were, they would definitely be the players ‘nightmare. The smaller the body, the more terrifying the strength. This was common knowledge in the game.
At this moment ...
The five people in the team saw li xiaonian watching.
The gunner player raised his hand and fired two shots at li xiaonian’s feet. Bang! Bang! The soil under his feet flew up. At the same time, the gunner said coldly,”Get lost! If you don’t get lost, I’ll kill you!”
“Um ...”
Li xiaonian looked apologetic as he raised his hand and said,”I’m sorry, I’m sorry. I’ll leave now.”
Although it was the novice area, killing was not prohibited. Killing people for treasures was a very common thing in star field.
When a player dies, half of the items on them will be randomly dropped, and the cultivation speed of the cultivation technique will be reduced by 0.1 for one month.
Of course, the murderer would be in a red name state. In a red name state, he would be the enemy of all NPCs, and even be killed by guards.
To get rid of the red name, one had to endure the time, and the other was to spend money.
If it was not necessary, the players would not kill each other. After all, even though they looked like noobs, they might be powerful in the real world. If they were provoked, no one would have a good time.
Looking at the map, li xiaonian carefully moved through the jungle. From time to time, he would encounter groups of teams hunting monsters.
Half an hour later, li xiaonian finally arrived at the mutated ant area.
In front of them was a Hill, and there were many ‘stone pillars’ in the hill. They were not real stone pillars, but the nest of mutated ants, which was 100 meters tall.
The mutated ants were red and no different from humans.
He looked over and saw that the Col was filled with mutated ants.
Hu ...
A gentle breeze blew past, stirring up a cloud of dust from the ground.
The surroundings were eerily quiet. Other than him, there was not a single person in sight.
[ mutated ant ]
It was a defense-type mutated beast with infinite strength.
lv2?
[ HP: 100/100 ]
[ defence: 10 ]
[ attack: 20 ]
Skills:
[ poison mist: when attacked, mutated ants will spray out a Green Poison mist, dealing 1 damage to the target every second. Speed reduced by 20%. ]
“He’s so strong, but he doesn’t have a team. What’s the point?” Li xiaonian’s face darkened.
With so many mutated ants, if there was only one or two, he could try. If he couldn’t defeat them, he could just run away. However, the number of mutated ants in front of him was terrifying. Many of them even had wings on their backs.
let’s wait and see if there’s anyone else who wants to farm these monsters. If there’s really no one, we’ll have to find another way.
While they were waiting.
Li xiaonian studied his personal attribute pane.
[ cultivation speed: 10.6 ]
The more li xiaonian looked at this value, the more delighted he became. With this value, as long as he stayed in the game, his cultivation speed in the real world would be able to maintain this state.
He clicked on the [ cultivation speed ] option.
Ding ...
The system said,’do you want to spend 10 domain coins to increase your cultivation speed by 0.1 times? Each use will only last for one day.”
No.
Li xiaonian refused.
The current him could not even come up with one domain coin, let alone 10.
“Sure enough, no matter where you are, money is the boss, even more so in the star field.”
At this moment, he wished he could have a few hundred million domain coins to increase his cultivation speed to the maximum. Unfortunately, he could only fantasize about it now.
Li xiaonian waited for almost half a day.
Finally, a supporting female player appeared. The female player was a head taller than li xiaonian, but she had a very slim and beautiful figure.
Beautiful, that was all.
In the game, there were almost no ugly people. If there were, it could only be said that they did it on purpose.
“Little brother, are you going to hunt mutated ants too?” The female player asked curiously.
“That’s right.” Li xiaonian nodded.
The female player’s eyes lit up. I’m Becky. Let’s form a party.
“Yeah.”
Ding ...
“Biqi has joined the party,” the system said.
Looking at the level 2 display, li xiaonian was curious. “You’re already Level 2, and you still want to hunt mutated ants?”
Biqi was disappointed when she saw li xiaonian’s level through the team information, but she still explained, ” “Level 0 – 3 players can receive this unlucky mission at any time. I want to give up, but I’m not willing to.”
After a short pause, Becky found a place to sit down and said, ” “Since they’re already here, let’s wait for a while. If a few more people come, we can try. If we really can’t, we can only give up.”
“You’re a new player, right? don’t you have any friends?” Becky asked.
“No, my friend’s level is very high,” Li xiaonian said ambiguously.
In star field, no matter how many monsters a player killed, they would all be deemed invalid if there were higher-leveled monsters in the party. Even if the player did not form a party, the effect would still be the same.
Therefore, there were no shortcuts for low-level players. They could only follow the rules.
A very high level?
Biqi’s face was full of envy.
“Do you have any way to try and pull a mutated ant over? if it’s possible, let’s give it a try,” li xiaonian probed.
“There are, but they can’t. Mutated ants are very strong, and if their health points are below the warning line, they will run away. “To put it bluntly, with the mutated ants ‘defense, we can only deal 1 point of damage. On the contrary, if we get bitten by them, we’ll probably be killed instantly.”
Li xiaonian’s eyes lit up. don’t worry, I’m very strong. No one’s coming here anyway. It’s not impossible to give it a try.
“Are you sure?”
Bi Qi looked at li xiaonian with a dead look.
She didn’t mind if she had to try. She was a support player anyway, so she hid far away. Once things looked bad, she would immediately escape.
She was just a rookie. If he died, so be it. It had nothing to do with her.
“I’m sure,”
Li xiaonian nodded his head with certainty.
alright, wait here. I’ll go pull the monsters.
Without further ado, Becky took out a piece of meat from her bag and threw it in the direction of the mutated ants.
“......”
The corner of li xiaonian’s mouth twitched slightly. It was so simple. It seemed that he still needed to do more research on the strategy for Star Domain.
There were no mutated ants in the open space.
However, a moment later, a mutated ant seemed to have smelled the beast meat and climbed over with agile movements.
Becky pulled the meat back and said nervously,” when I say fight, do it. I’ll lead it out of the safe area first.
“Yeah.”
A moment later, Becky drew the mutated ants to an open field and released the thread. “Do it.”
Bartz ~
The mutated ant bit into the meat and chewed with its sharp teeth.
Li xiaonian took a deep breath, took out his lightning rod, and pounced toward the mutated ant.
Bang! Bang!
-20
The lightning rod hit the mutated ant accurately, causing a huge amount of damage.
At the same time, the lightning rod released a weak electric current.
Ding ...
The system said, ” [ paralyze ] skill activated. Mutated ants are paralyzed for 0.1 seconds.
It was only a 0.1 second stun, but that was enough.
With his current strength, it was enough for him to attack again.
Peng!
-20;
Ding ...
The system said, ” [ paralyze ] skill activated. Mutated ants are paralyzed for 0.1 seconds.
Li xiaonian’s eyes glowed with excitement.
Another SAP.
This time, the passive skill of the divine weapon wasn’t activated. The mutated ant pounced on him angrily and bit him. It was as fast as lightning and Li xiaonian stabbed forward.
The lightning rod was inserted into the mutated ant’s mouth, and with a lift, the rod was swung horizontally ...
Ding ...
System: ” you have successfully killed a level two [ mutated ant ]. You have gained 2 experience points.
The entire process took less than a second.
Looking at the corpse on the ground, li xiaonian was dumbfounded.”Just this? High difficulty? It doesn’t seem like much.”
Li xiaonian was dumbfounded. Biqi, who was standing in the distance and ready to escape at any time, widened her eyes. Then, she stared at the stick in li xiaonian’s hand with a burning gaze and said, ” your weapon is so powerful. It can actually deal true damage. Did your friend give it to you? ”
“Yeah.” “You continue pulling monsters, I’ll gather the materials,” li xiaonian said as he looked at the other party.
After saying that, li xiaonian deftly cut off the mutated ant’s tentacle and kept it in his bag.
“No problem,” he said.
Biqi’s eyes reluctantly left li xiaonian’s weapon and ran to the valley, continuing to pull monsters like she did before.
Peng!
Pada!
BOOM!
......
One was in charge of pulling monsters, while the other was in charge of killing. The mutated ants that players feared had no way of resisting the lightning rod.
Ding ...
System: ” you have successfully killed a level two [ mutated ant ]. You have gained 2 experience points.
The system replied, [ you have obtained a tentacle. ]
The two of them fought for 20 minutes. Li xiaonian had successfully collected a large number of tentacles, and biqi had also obtained the relevant quest materials.
“Thank you,” he said.
Bi Qi said with excitement.
“You’re welcome ...”
Before li xiaonian could finish, biqi took out a dagger and stabbed it at his chest with a fierce expression. “Die!”
Although the two of them were working together, li xiaonian had always been on guard. When he saw biqi’s sudden killing move, li xiaonian’s face darkened, and he somersaulted backward.
He reacted quickly, but Becky was still a level 2 player, and he was only level 0. The level and attribute suppression made them not on the same level at all.
Puchi ~
The sharp dagger cut across his chest, and blood splattered.
“He dodged it!” Becky was surprised.
“This is how you repay me for helping you complete your mission?” li xiaonian asked with a dark expression.
hehe, it’s the law of the jungle. Hand over your weapon and I’ll spare your life. Otherwise, you’re dead. Biqi took out a silver gun and said coldly, ” don’t even think about running away. You can’t outrun bullets. Besides, you’re only level zero. You’re no match for me with the attribute level suppression.
She couldn’t tell the level of li xiaonian’s weapon, but it was definitely not a low level weapon. It could even be a gold-grade weapon.
As long as she succeeded in snatching it, her strength would increase by at least two levels, and it would be easier for her to kill monsters and level up in the future.
At the thought of this, Becky’s heart was beating fast.
There was definitely only one gold weapon in the entire novice village. No, it could even be said that there might not be a single gold weapon in a hundred million people.
“If you want to kill me, then let’s see if you have the ability.”
With a wave of his arm, li xiaonian took out the poor quality shield given by the system. Although it was of poor quality, it should be able to block bullets.
“Stupid!”
Becky raised her gun and fired.
Bang! Bang!
The speed of the bullet was faster than any bullet li xiaonian had ever seen in the real world.
Puchi!
-50
The bullet pierced through the shield and entered li xiaonian’s body.
Ding ...
The system replied, ” you have died. Level-1. Cultivation speed-0.1.
Li xiaonian’s vision turned black, and his body slowly fell to the ground.
Biqi quickly searched li xiaonian’s body, but there was nothing except for two pairs of tentacles.
“Dammit! It didn’t even drop a weapon, what a waste of an armor-piercing bullet.” Becky’s face was dark.
......
On the other side, li xiaonian stood at the respawn point of netherworld village and clenched his fists while gritting his teeth. “This is an instant kill?”
The death penalty was acceptable for someone as rich as him. However, to die on the first day of the game, and to be killed by a ‘teammate’, made him feel terrible.
“We still have a long way to go,” li xiaonian sighed after a long while.
He walked out of the resurrection point.
All sorts of trade calls sounded in his ears again.
recovery potions cost 0.2 domain coins per bottle. It’s definitely a life-saving weapon, but each person can only buy two bottles.
I’m buying all kinds of herbs. If you have any, you can message me privately.
the income of the Guild. As long as you join our guild, you will be safe. Whoever dares to provoke us will die without a doubt.
......
After walking out of the resurrection point, li xiaonian went straight to butcher Yan’s butcher’s shop.
It was just a game. If he died, then so be it. He couldn’t fight back now, but when he had the strength, he would naturally repay everything tenfold.
Right now, developing slowly was the way to go.
“Senior, these are the materials you need for the mission.” Li xiaonian took out 10 pairs of mutated ant’s tentacles from his bag and handed them to the other party.
Butcher Yan looked at li xiaonian in surprise. A smile appeared on his cold face,”You’re pretty good.”
Ding ...
The system said, ” you have completed the ” mutated ant ” mission. You have received the reward ” rice cake “.
[ rice cake ]: filling food.
Li xiaonian was holding a rice cake wrapped in tree leaves. He thought for a moment and forced a stiff smile.”Senior, do you still have any free missions?”
The mission’s difficulty was high, and the reward was low, but he did not believe in this. If he did it a few more times, he might be able to trigger a hidden mission.
“Yes,” butcher Yan replied after some thought.
Ding ...
The system said,’butcher Yan has a mission for you. Sell all the meat in his stall within one day. Rice cake.”
Li xiaonian’s face darkened when he saw the reward.
