Duqi was earlier than usual, and he didn't even bother to eat, but told the owner of the wild lily that he would be out for a while, and hurried to the market. After purchasing food, potions, tents, and other necessary supplies for survival in the wilderness in a few frequented shops, he left the city from the east gate in high spirits.

Based on the annotations on the map, coupled with past experience, Duzi had roughly calculated the distance of the mission. For a game, it may only be a few minutes for the player, but after switching to the real world, it can take him two days to complete this journey alone. Of course, if you have a mount, especially one that can fly, the journey will take much less time, but neither the security deposit and guarantor required for the loan, nor the more exaggerated purchase cost, can afford to pay for it. This time he had to rely on his feet to conquer the mission.

In fact, Duzi is not bored with such a journey, he used to envy the adventurers in the game who wander freely, and now he has the opportunity to experience it for himself.

This world is free from the erosion of industry and modernization, and is full of pristine beauty. Passing through a large area of farmland on the outskirts of the city, the sentry posts set up on the edge of Flying Eagle City gradually disappeared from view, and Duqi gradually walked into a no-man's land.

Along a stone official road that was not very smooth, after about ten minutes, you could see a small stream, and from here all the way to the north, you would soon find a forest, which was the training place that Du Qi had visited. But this time, he had to continue east along the road to find the four locations where the attack had taken place.

Du Qi had already made a plan last night, he would not always walk along the safer avenue, after all, no matter how beautiful the scenery is, it will be boring to see too much. Head southeast away from the avenue and soon reach another forest. This kind of route planning will waste some time, but it will give him more opportunities to practice.

Du Qi didn't know exactly how difficult this mission was, so he could only try to improve his strength on the way and avoid death as much as possible.

Shortly after burrowing into the woods, he quickly spotted a familiar light gray figure.

It was an adult spotted helmet over a meter long, with a flat, broad head hanging low to the ground, as if searching for something. Dealing with this old opponent, Du Qi was already handy, he knew that the spotted helmet had a keen sense of smell, but his eyesight and hearing were not strong points. Therefore, at this point, just lean down and slow down and approach it from the downwind direction.

Carefully confirming that there were no other creatures around, Du Qi leaned over step by step. Five meters, this is the limit distance he found after many experiments.

Spotted Helmet's ears were twitching slightly. In an instant, Du Qi released the power stored in his legs, pulling the distance between the two sides to two meters. He wasn't in a hurry, and while the Spotted Helmet wasn't a very powerful creature, it was notoriously hot-tempered. As long as it is frightened, it will not think too much about the gains and losses, and will only attack any creature in sight without regard for its life.

Sure enough, as soon as Du Qi stood still, Spotted Helmet slammed into the ground with his strong limbs and rushed straight towards Du Qi. He was prepared for this, and took a step to the right without hurrying, and at the same time slapped his left hand diagonally from top to bottom, he had already calculated the speed of both sides, and the iron shield smashed firmly into the side of the Spotted Helmet, slamming it to the ground.

"It's a little slower." Du Qi shouted in his heart that it was a pity, if he smashed on the monster's little head just now, it was guaranteed to make the spotted helmet confused for a while.

After the first blow, Duzi took another step forward and quickly took two steps back, not choosing to continue the pursuit. He knew very well in his heart that these monsters were different from ordinary animals, and their strong resistance to blows and fierce personalities made them fight like crazy demons. Sure enough, after the spotted helmet who fell to the ground was seduced by the forward stepping action, his body bounced up from the ground in an instant with a twist, and a pair of front paws grabbed the air a few times.

Taking advantage of the gap between the Helmet's attacks, Duzi quickly stepped twice to the right front, turned to the flank and back of the monster, and flew up and kicked it hard in the abdomen. The powerful force caused the monster to soar into the air, and the long sword in Du Qi's right hand swung out at the right time, hitting the neck of the Spotted Helmet with precision, completely erasing the last bit of its HP.

Du Qi turned his head to look around, first confirmed that his situation was safe, and then raised his sword to completely cut off the head of the spotted helmet, and then nodded reassuringly. His progress can be described as meteoric, and he would not have been able to do so neatly a few days ago.

I remember one time, when Duzi didn't pay attention to his surroundings after a hunt, he was attacked by another Spotted Helmet and nearly died. On another occasion, his target did not die immediately after falling to the ground, and a dying counterattack left a huge scar on Duzi's right eye. Fortunately, this is just a game, and after drinking the potion, the scar heals quickly.

Without mentioning the past, Du Qi put his right hand on the corpse of the spotted helmet, several white lights flashed, and the dissection skill was activated, and then a complete piece of fur had been stripped out.

He shook his head, expertly tossed the fur into the storage space, and was about to get up to leave, when two windows popped up in front of him. "Oh...... Is it the Bestiary? I've almost forgotten about it. ”

Behind the Spotted Helmet entry, the bar indicating the progress of the research was finally full, and a lot of information suddenly appeared in the blank window.

"Spotted Helmet: Spotted Helmet lives mostly in forested areas and is a short-tempered, solitary creature. During the breeding season, the female will even fight the male to choose a suitable mate; Normal attributes: Blood Lv0, Stamina Lv1, Magic Lv0, Attack Lv1, Defense Lv0, Resistance Lv1, Speed Lv1, Berserk Lv0; Weaknesses: abdomen, head. ”

"Huh? This is ......" Du Qi casually swept over another window that displayed his own attributes, and his eyes quickly fell on the skill item. At this time, the skill item that originally did not have much content suddenly added a forging skill behind it. "It won't be ......" A thought flashed through his mind, and his heartbeat couldn't help but speed up the points.

Duzi quickly called up the forging window, and there was an entry on it. It was a completely new concept that he had not been exposed to before.

"Starry Night: This is a set of equipment designed by the Master Forge Fire General based on the characteristics of the monster spotted helmet, the red scales are like shining stars hanging in the night sky, mysterious and beautiful."

Under the first line of introduction, the various parts of the set are also described in detail, including helmets, armor, and weapons. In addition, the materials needed to craft the equipment are also listed, including fur with spotted helmets, leg bones, sharp teeth, and other materials, as well as some ores called Starry Night Stone.

"It's not difficult to get the materials for the spotted helmet, although I have sold a lot, but I also have some reserves on my body, combined with the current anatomical efficiency, I can hunt a dozen more spotted helmets. It's just that the so-called Starry Night Stone, I don't seem to have seen it before, is it an ore? Well...... I've been walking for most of the day, and it's too inefficient to go back to the city now. It's better to wait until this mission is over, and then go back to Flying Eagle City to inquire, if it's not any rare ore, it should be able to buy it. If you really can't do it, you can also entrust the Shengyu Chamber of Commerce to help with favors. ”

The materials were difficult to gather for a while, and the new equipment was out of reach, and the heat in Du Qi's heart suddenly cooled by half. Putting away his regrets, he could only get up and continue his adventure. This small forest is not very large, except for some animals that are not too threatening, and the only monsters that are truly valuable are Spotted Helmets. With the idea of collecting materials, Du Qi went back and forth in the woods twice, and after hunting three spotted helmets in a row, he walked out of the woods with the materials satisfied.

It was still early, so Du Qi opened the map, confirmed his location, and continued to move east.
