Chapter 4, Crossbows

Night. The half-moon hung proudly in the sky, illuminating the bleak night sky. Now is the best time to count the stars, because there are very few stars to see. However, the two people on the grass were obviously not in such a mood.

Dawn picked up a stick of wormwood and chewed it carefully. A familiar bitter taste spreads in the mouth.

"I'm guessing you're either an ox or a sheep!" Su Yao, who was lying next to Dawn, said speechlessly.

Dawn disagreed, reminding: "Rabbits also eat grass!" Then Zhengse said: "According to what you said, did you enter the game with many people?" ”

Su Yao nodded: "Yes, in front of the bronze door, there are many people standing there, maybe hundreds, maybe thousands!" ”

"And how did you become a guinea pig?"

Su Yao said helplessly: "Dad needs a sum of money for surgery to save his life, I came voluntarily, I am worth 1 million!" Isn't that good? The smile that is barely piled up makes people know that it is fake at a glance.

Watching the dawn not return, then as if thinking of something, he took out an ancient scroll from his backpack. "This one for you!"

Reaching out to take it, an introduction then appeared, "Skill Book: Venom Shot (Requirements: Archer, Level Requirements: Level 4. Mana Cost: 20. Cooldown: 15 seconds. Causes the arrow to poison itself, dealing 120% physical damage to the target and poisoning the target. For the next 10 seconds, deal 5% physical damage per second. )”

"Okay, don't look at me like that, it's not disgusting! I'm a mage, and it's useless to me. I warn you, if you die here, you die, and don't really play it as a game. Because before I picked up this skill book, I saw two people killed by monsters. ”

Su Yao pointed to the equipment on his body and said, "I have visited the entire Thorn Canyon, there are basic equipment in the store, you go and buy one first, and you will have more security." ”

They looked at each other and smiled. For some reason, Dawn felt a sense of intimacy. Xin said: "Is it because I have been too lonely?" ”

"Come and don't be rude, and then!" Su Yao took the staff he threw over, stunned.

Scorpiontail Staff: (Attribute: Magic Attack +22.) Only Passive: Burn, the fire skill ignites the target, causing them to lose 5 health per second. The scorch effect does not stack)

This staff's magic attack bonus is higher than his total magic attack power. Su Yao's eyes were a little hot, the only skill attached to "Birth" was the "Fireball Technique", and of course he understood that the value of this equipment was not comparable to that skill book.

"It's not hypocritical, I admit you brother. You know, my family conditions are not good, and when I go to school, everyone always brings all kinds of comparisons, and I look out of place. So I haven't had any friends all the time. The only thing that accompanies me is online games. From now on, can I give you my back? ”

They looked at each other, and after a short silence, they laughed out loud at the same time. Dawn smiled and nodded, "Here, I'm a young master, and you're a member of the mercenary group." Take care of the little brother! ”

He walked up to Su Yao, patted him on the shoulder, and said, "Get up early tomorrow and upgrade together, let's go to bed." Either way, you have to live first, don't you? Then he walked back to his lodgings without looking back. It's so sensational, he really can't stand it.

Back at the accommodation, this is also the second time that Liming has come to his "own" room, a wooden house of about 30 square meters, surrounded by bamboo poles. It's a bit old-fashioned and romantic. In addition to a bed, table, chair and bench as standard, there is only one bookshelf. I watched it for a long time and there was something valuable. In fact, after coming back in the evening, Liming asked Zhang Dang to take the loop on the pretext of helping him move things. Otherwise, God knows where to stay.

Lying on a strange big bed, I couldn't sleep for a long time. After all, the experience of renting a house after being kicked out of the welfare home cannot be counted on two hands, and I am thinking about my future plans. "There is no limit to the level of use of equipment, but often good equipment can only be produced on powerful bosses, is this to lure us to death?" Thinking of the Scorpiontail Staff, Dawn said to herself.

Lying in bed, a wave of fatigue welled up, today's experience was too complicated, and my nerves were tense all the time. I just fell asleep next to the bed......

Following.

"Su Yao's request to add you as a friend, do you accept it?"

"Accept!" Dawn did not hesitate to be sure. Looking at the sun outside, it's already noon, patted the door of the head, it seems that this sleep is a bit long, it used to be a mobile phone alarm, where is that thing now!

"Ding! You've received a new friend message, so check it out! ”

"Don't disturb your sleep, I'll go out and practice first. - Su Yao"

Rubbing his temples, Dawn pushed the door open and walked out of the cabin. The sun at noon is very dazzling, and the whole mercenary group is very silent, I don't know if it's because of the game, even if I talk to my "father" very little, although I have never felt the relationship between father and son, but I have never eaten pork or seen a pig run. "Let's buy equipment first!" Dawn muttered to herself.

Thorn Valley, a huge commercial street, large and small shops, dazzling. If it weren't for the green names above his head, Dawn almost thought he was back in reality.

Looking at the more than 3 gold coins in his backpack, Dawn came to a weapon shop, and it was a weapon shop specializing in bows and arrows. There were all sorts of longbows hanging on the walls, and an idea crossed Dawn's mind.

"Shopkeeper!" Looking at the middle-aged man who was asleep at the counter, the three big green characters "Arras" floated on his head, and Dawn shouted.

"Arras" stretched his waist and said with a hache in his mouth: "Are young people so rude nowadays? Can't wait until I wake up? ”

Dawn disagreed: "Is there a crossbow here?" ”

Arras's sleepy eyes lit up instantly: "How did you know about this weapon?" ”

Dawn is speechless, of course this is on TV, Zhuge Repeater? But it certainly can't be explained that way. Then he said, "So, do you have this?" ”

Arras waved his hand, got up and walked into the inner room, and said, "That's not something you can use as an archer!" It's closed today, and if you want to buy weapons, you can go to another house! ”

Seeing that there was a drama, of course Dawn was not so easy to be dismissed. Cheeky follow-up of the inner room.

Arras took out a jug of wine and drank it to himself. When the flask was empty, the whole person seemed to be much older. He said, "Young man, would you like to hear me tell you a story?" ”

Without waiting for Dawn to answer, he spoke to himself. Looking at this vicissitudes of life, Dawn also became interested.

"Once upon a time, the continent was peaceful. There are few battles between the five empires, thanks to the constraints of the Guardians. One day, the Guardians discover a secret that someone is trying to destroy the world. However, their strength is far from enough, and for the sake of their ambitions, they have developed a way to quickly increase their strength. They began to kill innocents indiscriminately, and to sacrifice the living. Eventually, their plan failed when the Guardians stopped them. But the Guardians have also paid a terrible price. Five people go, one person returns! ”

Halfway through speaking, Arras suddenly stopped. He took out a jug of wine again and drank it again.

"Having lost his former companion, the Guardian spends his days in a state of confusion and drinking to kill his sorrows. But the plans of the devils continued......"

At this point, Arras turned around and took out a wooden box, which was covered in dust. It is about 30 centimeters long and 20 centimeters wide.

Gently wiping the dust on it, very slowly and slowly, as if looking at his lover.

Half a ring, finally wiped clean, Dawn's heart also raised his throat, and his intuition told him that this story was not simple, and this NPC named "Arras" was even more not simple.
