Chapter 4: Fighting the Toad Monster
"You just have a little money, you can keep it for yourself, the adventurous road of cultivation is very difficult, you have to eat when you're hungry, you have to drink water when you're thirsty, you need gold medicine when you're injured, you need antidote grass when you're poisoned, you need money to stay when you're tired at night, and you need money in many aspects, alas!" The old man sighed, stopped talking, and looked out of the village with cloudy eyes.
Seeing his appearance, Han Leng thought that he could trigger some task, so he asked a lot of questions, but after that, the old man repeated his previous words.
It doesn't seem to be able to set up any tasks.
When he was about to leave, the old man turned his head, looked at him in surprise and said, "Little brother, why are you still here?" Why don't you go on an adventure to improve your cultivation? “
"I just saw that you kept looking out of the village, is there something going on?" Han Leng asked in a concerned tone.
The old man's eyes flashed, and after looking at Han Leng for a while, he shook his head: "It's okay." ”
"Is there anything you need my help with?"
"If you really have time, help me send these herbs to Aunt Li's house."
[Whether to accept the commission of Old Man Li]
After Han Leng chose to accept, he chatted with him for a while, and when he saw that he really couldn't say anything, he walked towards the village.
After that, everyone would talk slowly like chatting with Old Man Li, but there was no situation where Old Man Li went around in a big circle before giving a task.
Reminded by the villagers, Han Leng found Aunt Li's dilapidated hut.
A little girl holding a rag doll stood in front of Han Leng.
"You bad people, bullying Aunt Li to be sick in bed, running into Aunt Li's house and stealing and taking it, it's so bad, I don't allow you to go in."
The door is only so wide, the little girl stands in the middle, others can't squeeze in at all, Han Leng has no way to take her, because according to the setting, the NPCs in the mythical world have their own aura, and they can't be actively contacted by the player, let alone squeezed hard.
Han Leng originally planned to reason with her, but the girl didn't listen at all, so Han Leng could only find another way.
He walked around the house, thought about climbing the window, and even stared at the wide chimney on top of the house, but wherever he went, the little girl always jumped out of the window and out of the chimney in time.
Han Leng, who has always been calm, couldn't help but laugh, and didn't know what to say. He even wanted to call Wu Siwen over, and at the same time break in from different places to see if the little girl could become two, of course, he just thought about it, and didn't really do that.
Han Leng was really helpless, so he could only find the little girl, took out the herbs and said, "I was really entrusted by Uncle Li at the entrance of the village to deliver the herbs." ”
The little girl turned her head in disbelief.
Han Leng was helpless, although he still had a way to try, that is, to wait until after night to hand in the task, because according to the information, except for the guards at night, everyone else would return home, this little girl was cleanly dressed, not like a beggar orphan, then she would definitely go back.
But the night still needed a few hours, and Han Leng could only do other tasks first.
Han Leng, who turned around and walked out, suddenly had a flash of inspiration, he turned around and went back, and handed the herb to the little girl.
"What are you doing here?" The little girl asked defensively.
"Since you don't believe me, then you can take the herbs and make medicine for Aunt Li, don't delay the treatment." Han Leng said.
"I don't know if you're sincere." The little girl looked suspicious, hesitated for a while, and finally gritted her teeth and said, "Whether you are sincere or not, I will accept this medicine, but I will not let you in." What if you use these herbs to trick me into letting you in. ”
Seeing that the herbs in his hand disappeared, Han Leng didn't stay long, and hurriedly went to do other tasks. Anyway, he had memorized those herbs, they were not precious herbs, and he had also learned the skills of collecting and distinguishing medicines from a pharmacist in the village, so it should not be difficult to get another one.
Arriving at a wetland outside the village, he is now tasked with dealing with some poisonous toads.
Chose a suitable toad and entered the battle state, Han Leng entered the stealth state, went around behind the toad, held the rusty dagger, stabbed it in the back, and a bright red number 10 floated up from the toad's body, and the blood on its head also dropped.
The rusty dagger has an attack power of 6-9, the backstab increases the attack by 20%, and the first attack of the stealth when it appears has another 30% attack, which increases the total damage by 50% or half, so the damage can hit up to 13 damage this time, and 10 points is already good.
The toad turned around angrily, and swept his tongue heavily towards Han Leng, but fortunately, Han Leng had been prepared, dodged for a while, and then entered a stealth state. Coming behind the toad, drawing a scoop according to the gourd, one backstabbed down, and a bright red 9 floated up from the toad's head. Suddenly, a stream of green gas emanated from a small hole in the toad's back.
Han Leng saw that the blood bar floating in front of him suddenly dropped from 100 points to 93 points, and the blood volume was still dropping a little by second, and there was another poisoning state above the bar, after quickly getting out of the range of the toad's green gas, the poisoning state only lasted for a few seconds, but at this time,
Han Leng's blood volume is already only 81 points.
It seems that such a little toad is not easy to deal with, no wonder I see many posts crying about the hardships of this profession.
For example, they said that before level 10, they were all melee skills, and the defense was low, and the monsters in the novice village were all poisoned attacks, and they couldn't prevent it, and they couldn't do it with technical operations, and it was estimated that they would have to lose half a blood if they hit a toad.
The blood medicine in the early stage was so expensive, one for five copper plates, and twenty points of blood were added. Not to mention, there are swamps and wetlands everywhere, and it is possible to accidentally step on the poison pit when you walk, and the blood volume will fall down slowly, and the blood medicine will not be able to pull it, and sometimes it is normal to step on the poison pit and die instantly.
Look at Nanxian Mountain, which is also in the swamp of the wetland, other people's ordinary attacks are long-range, and they can also detoxify themselves and restore their blood, and they can fight monsters far away from kites.
In such a comparison, many people have shouted to delete the number and switch to other professions.
But Han Liangliang didn't agree very much, admittedly, it seems that Nanxian Mountain is better, but if you take into account the efficiency of fighting monsters, with the same equipment, a skilled Lost Trail can kill ten toads with a special attack bonus, and an equally skilled Nanxian may only kill five, or even less.
Han Leng is the kind of person who is skilled, and killing one is enough to master the technique.
Easily solve the remaining monsters required for the task, and also get a pair of cloth shoes, a cloth shoe is white, so it adds a little defense, and the leather coat, the leather coat is green, not only adds some defense, but also has a special effect, that is, to reduce the toxic damage by two points, and it is with this leather coat that Han Leng does not have to dodge the poison of those toads, and when they spray poison, he outputs wildly, reducing a lot of time.
"Help! The big guy helps. Several people rushed towards Han Leng's side.
Han Leng took a closer look and found that they were followed by a huge green-black toad.
The sweet-looking girl at the head was running towards Han Leng's side desperately, and she was followed by two ordinary young people.
