The only crossbows that can be purchased with Ling Yu's authority are the delicate bow crossbow that focuses on the range and the repeating crossbow that focuses on the rate of fire.

Delicate Bow and Crossbow: Special weapon, fixed damage 80, normal rate of fire, range 300 yards, +10 hit. Cost: 5 credits.

Repeater: Special weapon, fixed damage 80, fast rate of fire, range 150 yards, +10 hit. Cost: 5 credits.

Both kinds of crossbows have their own places to play, and Ling Yu's funds are relatively sufficient, so he directly bought them all.

After buying the crossbow, Ling Yu bought one hundred sets of crude crossbow arrows (a group of 100 arrows, which cannot be recycled), ten sets of sharp arrows, and 100 D-level armor-piercing arrows (special arrows can only be sold in one go, and there is a limit on the number of arrows. ）

Crude crossbow arrows: damage 5, hit +1.Price: 5 copper coins in a set.

Sharp Arrows: 10 damage, +3 accuracy. Price: 20 copper coins in pairs.

D-level armor-piercing arrow: 30 damage, +5 hit, attack can ignore 50% of the target's defense, and ignore a minimum of 50 defense. (For example, when attacking a target with 60 defense with an armor-piercing arrow, it will be calculated as if the opponent only has 10 defense, and when attacking a target with 30 defense, it will be calculated as 0 defense) Price: 10 copper coins

An arrow costs 10 copper coins, which is equivalent to consuming 10 copper coins in one attack, which can no longer be said to be spending money, but burning money, even if it is a merchant's special skills: money darts and a throw may not be more expensive than this.

The words of leveling with armor-piercing arrows are no longer just luxurious, but a naked loser. But it is not enough to say that it is completely useless, and on some special occasions, armor-piercing arrows can still play a role beyond their value.

I didn't buy more because it was too expensive, but because there was a limit to the number of strategic materials like this, and Ling Yu could only buy 100 in the dwarves' minds at present. This is because there is only one player here, Ling Yu.

In addition to crossbows and arrows, Ling Yu also purchased more than a dozen pieces of level 5 and level 10 bronze equipment, intending to take them back and sell them to players.

As the number one forging race in the continent, the dwarves are the only race that can directly sell bronze equipment, (but there is a limit to the quantity) If there is enough goodwill and materials, even silver and gold equipment is not impossible.

Considering the difficulty of this game, bronze equipment should still have relatively high market competitiveness at this stage, and it should not be a problem to buy a few pieces of bronze equipment and bring it home to make a small profit. Of course, you must buy a few pieces of bronze equipment for your own use.

After purchasing the equipment, Ling Yu received another mission from the dwarves to help expel the undead from the nearby mines.

This is a D-level task, which is not something that Ling Yu can complete now, but fortunately, there is no time limit for this task, and it can be completed when the strength is enough.

After doing all this, Ling Yu walked outside in high spirits, ready to start a new round of challenges.

As he was leaving, Ling Yu happened to meet a player called the Blue Moon Thief.

The moment she looked at Ling Yu, Cang Yue was slightly stunned, and then sent a friend application like Ling Yu: "Master, add a friend, you can take care of each other in the future." ”

Being able to notice the existence and value of the dwarven tribe in the early stage and put it into practice to successfully reach it is a proof of mastery.

Ling Yu was slightly stunned, then chose to agree. A good professional gamer not only needs strong strength, but also good networking. A player who can find the dwarven tribe at this stage can be considered excellent anyway, and it is completely valuable to make friends.

After returning to the town, Ling Yu threw all the equipment to the store for consignment, although the consignment fee had to pay a 5% handling fee, but the time saved could be used to do more meaningful things.

With the help of the crossbow arrows, Ling Yu directly chose to challenge the level 7 Thorn Turtle.

The Thorn Turtle is a typical meat shield monster with excellent defense and HP, but its disadvantage is its low speed and lack of attack methods.

However, unlike the average Meat Shield, the Thorn Turtle is not afraid of most players, as it has an ability that can be considered a natural enemy for new players, the Sharp Thorn.

This ability allows the Thorn Turtle to bounce the physical damage it takes to the opponent intact (the damage taken by the turtle remains the same), but it is limited to melee attacks, and it can be described as a natural predator for players who only have melee methods in the early stage.

However, for Ling Yu, who had a bow and crossbow, the Thorn Turtle was just a simple moving target, and it didn't even cost blood.

With the rich experience bonus of skipping kills, Ling Yu's experience rose like a rocket, and it only took less than three hours to rise to level 5, steadily squeezing into the first echelon of the game.

Since the crossbow is not buffed to its own attack damage, all the points gained from leveling up are added to Agility, bringing Agility to a high of 38 - an exaggerated number, almost three times faster than players of the same level

Compared with the huge increase in level, the economic benefits are much smaller, and the money that bursts out is only barely equal to the cost of arrows, which shows that the explosion rate of the Firmament Realm is low.

Fortunately, one of the thorn turtles burst out with a level 5 small round shield, which could be regarded as slightly making up for Ling Yu's loss.

It's cool to use high-level crossbow arrows to level up, but the cost is also very high. You must know that Ling Yu is now killing monsters independently, and his income is several times higher than that of ordinary players. But even so, he only managed to break even, which shows how much crossbow and arrow were spent.

It was obviously not a suitable choice to continue fighting the Thorn Turtle after level 5, and Ling Yu set his sights on the level 10 lizardmen.

Level 10 is a watershed, because when you reach this level, you can change classes, which makes the strength increase by leaps and bounds.

Therefore, monsters above level 10 and monsters below level 10 are completely different concepts, and the difference in combat power cannot be reasoned. What's more, lizardmen can be regarded as a tricky existence even among level 10 monsters, and players of the same level need at least five or more people to match them.

Although theoretically speaking, he was completely able to deal with the lizardmen, but considering the evaluation of the Firmament Realm by the beta players, Ling Yu felt that it was better for him to be careful.

It took ten or so minutes to come to the black wilderness where the lizardmen roamed, and Ling Yu carefully searched for a suitable target.

Soon, Ling Yu found a suitable target—a lone lizardman.

Lizardman: Level 10 beast monster, attack 70, defense 15, HP 450/450,

Strength 24, Constitution 18, Agility 24, Spirit 10, Will 10

Talents: Agility, Skill, Unity.

Skill: Rapid Slash, quickly slash at the target with six cuts, each dealing 80% damage.

Lizardfolk are average monsters with no significant shortcomings and no outstanding features. With the damage of the delicate crossbow, it only takes seven hits to kill a lizardman, even if you don't trigger critical hits and weak point attacks.

Considering the range of the delicate bow and his sheer superiority in speed, there was hardly any pressure on the kite to kill a lizardman.

The dead corner, which had never been seen by the lizardmen, approached, and when it entered the shooting range, Ling Yu raised his hand and shot an arrow.

-70

The lizardman reacted quickly, judging the direction of the archer at the moment of attack, and then ran quickly towards Ling Yu.

Ling Yu shot as he retreated, but was blocked by the lizard personality twice in the middle of the attack, and only took one damage.

When the lizardman approached within twenty paces, he still had more than half of his health, and with his fragile body, once he got close, he would be killed in an instant.

Ling Yu put away his bow and crossbow, and ran away, relying on his agility far beyond that of the lizardmen.

Half a minute later, he pulled away and fired three more arrows, finally killing the lizardman the moment he got close.

The basic experience of the lizardman is twice that of the thorn turtle, plus the experience bonus of skipping the level, you can almost get nearly three times as much experience, but the time it takes is a few seconds less than killing the thorn turtle, and if you count the time to seek the enemy, the leveling efficiency is about 20% higher.

However, the advantage of killing lizardmen is not only in terms of experience, the ability to drop items is the main reason why Ling Yu chose lizardmen as the training target.

After that, Ling Yu continued to hunt and kill lizardmen in the Black Wilderness, and with his previous experience, Ling Yu became more and more comfortable killing lizardmen, even like three or two lizardmen gathered together.

Relying on the absolute advantage in agility, as long as he didn't run into other lizardmen during the kite process or lure too many lizardmen in one go, Ling Yu could rely on the advantage of range and speed to shoot the opponent alive.

Although several battles had ended in Ling Yu's resounding victory, it would be a mistake to make it very easy for the lizardmen to deal with.

As humanoid creatures known for their agility, lizardmen have a unique advantage in hand-to-hand combat, and even the most ordinary lizardmen are not inferior to the elite warriors of humans in terms of hand-to-hand combat skills.

At least not for the players, unless they are top professional players who specialize in melee classes, the average melee player of the same level will only be abused when they encounter a lizardman.

To put it simply, lizardmen are like those super martial artists who have practiced martial arts since childhood, unless they are completely crushed in rank or use numerical advantages, they are simply looking for abuse in close combat.

Ling Yu's luck was good, after killing the fifth lizardman, he burst out a ring with a vision range of +5, although it was useless in battle, it still played a big role in the adventure.

A few easy kills made Ling Yu's self-confidence swell greatly, and he began to march like the depths of the black wilderness.

If the information on the forum is correct, there will be a commander-level lizardman warrior in the depths of the black wilderness, which is equivalent to an elite monster, not only has a very impressive explosion rate and experience, but most importantly, it will burst out rare skill books and high-level equipment. If you can break out a good skill book in the early stage, it is a very good choice whether you sell it or use it yourself.
