Chapter 7: Outpost Green
After speaking, he waved his hand at Li Ran, and there were three more things in front of Li Ran this time, the first one was a card, on which a long-eared creature with a wooden stick was drawn, Li Ran was depressed in his heart, how could he be a first-level goblin! Even a big goblin is reluctant to give. The second thing is a ring that gives +1 ATK. The third was a small tray with three gold coins in it. Li Ran thought for a moment and reached out and took the three gold coins.
Seeing that he had already made his choice, the female mage said to Li Ran: "Hero of the Tower Clan, bestow upon you the blessings of the gods, start your journey now!" After saying that, with a wave of her vindictive hands, Li Ran felt a flash of white light in front of her again, opened her eyes and found herself in a room that looked like a hotel, pushed open the door, walked out of the hotel, and Li Ran stumbled in the dazzling sun.
Slowly opening his eyes, a village with Gothic architecture came into view, with intricate houses, many shops on both sides of the road, and people coming and going, calling friends and friends to walk out of the city. Even as a former professional gamer, everything in front of him was so real, once again it was hard for him to imagine, this was almost exactly the same as the real world, the wind was blowing with the smell of earth on his body, he stretched out his hand to try to grab the wind in the wind, and looked up into the distance. It seemed that a certain nerve was involuntarily touched in his body, which made him extremely excited, and his whole body couldn't help but tremble. Li Ran tried hard to calm down, closed his eyes tightly and took a deep breath.
After a while, Li Ran slowly opened his eyes, and his breathing returned to calm. He looked down at a pair of cloth pants sent by the system on his body and smiled bitterly.
Fortunately, I chose three gold coins at the beginning. So he found a system clothing store and bought a set of tops and shoes to cover his body for two silver coins. I opened the address book casually and tried to add a few numbers, mainly the other members of their team, chatted with each other and reported the approximate location against the map.
Soon the captain Zhou Xun replied: "Okay, the personnel of our team have arrived, and I have recorded the general location, I will choose a city closest to us as soon as possible as our meeting point, and then everyone will gather there as much as possible during the leveling process." to try to reach the same city within two weeks, which will be conducive to future development" Everyone agreed, and after a few small chats with each other, they continued their work.
Li Ran did not choose to rush to upgrade outside the village like other fighters, but walked around the village twice, remembered the location of several shops, and at the corner of the pharmacy, Li Ran opened the address book and added a number. The other party is a player named Golden Doll, and I saw that the other party's avatar flashed to indicate that it was online and that the call service had been turned on.
"Master Jin, have the gold coins I needed arrived?" Li Ran asked
"It's you, Ranzi, I just received the first batch of gold coins. This third world regulation is really life-threatening, you can't drill any loopholes, you don't want a virtual number of up to three gold coins, this doesn't kill me, I'm depressed, these gold coins are all collected at a high price. In this way, many people don't sell, 100 gold coins will be transferred to you now, if you want to send money, it is still an old account, of course, you can take things in the future! ”
"I'll transfer the money to you now, is that enough last time? I haven't played for a long time, and I don't know if I can earn back these investments, don't have anything for you to pay for when the time comes," Li Ran said with a smile
"Don't come to this vain thing in front of me, just according to the price you said last time, if others are not enough, you just give this price, and my brother welcomes you back with a little heart. By the way, Brother Li, do they know you're back? ”
After being silent for a while, Li Ran said: "I didn't tell them, don't tell them first, the team finally got together after I left, if I inform them now, according to Brother Li's character, I will definitely be asked to go back and talk about it, then I have to readjust the team, now that the third world has just opened, it will definitely affect them, let's talk about it after a while!" ”
The golden doll over there thought for a while and replied, "Okay, I understand!" Call me if you need anything, I'll go offline to eat first, and I'll be busy until now."
"Yes, got it!"
After the simple call, Li Ran walked into the potion shop, sat on a chair and waited for the system's prompts, many people thought that after entering the third world, as long as they had a little guts, they could hack the boss to death with a little luck, and then pick up a few epic pieces of equipment, put them aside and then collect some little brothers. There are many such legends, but as a former professional, at least there is no such person around him, so Li Ran never believes it. He only knows that if he doesn't want to be left behind by the front-line players in the early stage, he only has to work hard and invest appropriately, and there is no return if he doesn't pay, like a gambler, two hours after entering the third world, Li Ran made the first bet!
"Ding!! The system reminded that an email had arrived, and Li Ran was awakened from his thoughts.
Coming to the post office, after paying the shipping fee for a silver coin, Li Ran took a package containing 100 gold coins sent to him by the golden doll.
I came to the jewelry store non-stop and spent 22 gold coins to buy a 32-compartment storage ring with a volume of nearly one square meter. This will make other players very surprised when they see it, fortunately, there are not many people visiting jewelry stores now, Li Ran took the ring and came to the pharmacy non-stop, and then there was a crazy shopping, 10 sets of small bottles of blood potions and 10 groups of small bottles of magic potions, filled with a full 20 grids, and the remaining 12 grids were filled with 100 servings of food. A small amount of antidote was also packed. I found a professional pathfinder and bought a map of the outside of the city. After some research, go out of the city gate and walk towards the Green Mountains to the east. This is a standard hunting ground, and many professional players have already started their first intimate encounters with monsters here. It's full of level 3 poison blood ivy and level 5 mountain dogs.
At the low-lying entrance to the Green Mountains, there is a simple outpost, which is in tatters, and from time to time two or three NPC soldiers will walk by, which is called the Green Mountain Guard. Because of the patrols of these NPC guards, you don't have to worry about dangerous creatures that suddenly appear behind you. So the dilapidated outpost has now spontaneously formed a rest area and free market, affectionately known as Camp Green by the nearby players. People also like to exchange and sell the equipment items they have hunted here.
It took Li Ran about two hours to get here, and he soon found a stall in the free market that sold recovery potions, food, and antidotes. As soon as the stall opened, a group of people immediately gathered around, all of whom had almost the same amount of medicine and food on their bodies.
A male priest named Dazzling Sun shouted first: "Don't worry, everyone, come one by one", only to see him followed closely by a two-order orc, it seems that this guy is quite lucky. Although it was repeatedly emphasized in the announcement that it could be sent up to the third-order troops, it was even possible to send it to the fourth-order. But Li Ran came here from the village and met no less than thousands of people, not to mention the third- and fourth-order troops, even the second-order troops were very few, this guy was really lucky.
Just listen to the people behind you for a while, one by one? Don't be funny! How many people sell medicines, what do we buy when you buy them? At this time, Li Ran shouted loudly: "Don't quarrel, everyone is first-come, first-served, a small vial of blood blue elixir, a group of 80 silver coins in the city's pharmacy." I've got a gold coin here. 3 silver coins in Food City, 5 silver coins here. The antidote is 20 silver coins, 13 silver coins in the city, and the children are not bullied, and they can also be exchanged for items"
Because Li Ran's price was not high, in the sound of bargaining, in less than one hour, the medicine had been swept away, and it took about an hour to collect some groceries that were not used after being seized. When all this was done, Li Ran took a breath and ran towards the village where he came.
Back and forth like this, Li Ran ran desperately on this road, like a snail that never stopped, transporting food and medicine. It wasn't until the system detected the fatigue level three times that Li Ran opened the virtual warehouse with his tired body and mind.
At this time, it was more than 2 o'clock in the middle of the night, opened the door, went downstairs and walked to the garden behind the company, took a deep breath, the cold air of the autumn night could already soak people's hearts, Li Ran stretched a long waist comfortably. It seems that this time the fatigue has been swept away, and the person has a lot of energy. Lighting a cigarette, Li Ran leisurely looked at the starry sky.
"You're out too!" Hearing someone shouting behind him, Li Ran looked back, and it turned out to be captain Zhou Xun and vice captain Cao Dayong.
"Well, come out and breathe, what about you? I won't stick to it from yesterday morning until now," Li Ran said with a smile
Zhou Xun smiled and said: "You are a god when we are, that can last so long, we rested in the afternoon, and we didn't go in until after dinner, and I just wanted to come out to talk and found you!" ”
Cao Dayong suggested on the side: "Juanzi and they are about to come out in a while, or I will call them all, Brother Zhou, you have just set the location of the gathering, everyone is just arranging it in person, and chat by the way!" ”
Zhou Xun nodded and said, "Okay, you go and call them, and I'll invite you to a drink at the small restaurant opposite in a while!" As soon as Cao Dayong heard that someone invited him for a drink, he laughed, and as soon as he shouted the good words, he ran away to find someone.
Looking at Cao Dayong's back, Zhou Xun looked at Li Ran and said with a smile: "Dayong is like this, when he mentions drinking, he is full of energy."
Li Ran smiled slightly, Li Xun just looked at the towering Tianyun Group building and said in a deep voice: "I have been in the company for nearly four or five years with Dayong, from the beginning of being inexperienced and being scolded by the captain every day, to now I can barely lead a team, although it is only a few years, sometimes it feels like it has been a long time, I am not afraid of being laughed at by you, Dayong and I have applied for joining the core group several times, but we have not passed!" ”
Li Ran sighed and didn't speak, he knew that what Zhou Xun needed now was not a teammate who comforted him out of sympathy, but an audience that listened carefully. Li Ran then sent a cigarette, Zhou Xun lit it and took a deep puff, and after a long time, he took a long puff, looked at Li Ran and nodded and said, "Thank you"
