Volume 2 The Turmoil in the Rivers and Lakes Chapter 11 Stubbornness
"You think I'm here to persuade you to go home?"
Hearing Haiqing Zhenren say this, Tu Shi was stunned: "Isn't it?" β
"Everything is connected by cause and effect. That spider spirit does have a lot to do with you, and if you go to fight it, it will be a calamity, which is in line with the way of heaven, so I don't advise you. β
Tu Shi patted his chest and let out a sigh. How afraid he was that Master Right would directly take him back, then he couldn't do anything at all.
"Butβ"
Tu Shi is most afraid that others will suddenly say "but" in the middle of their words, because it often means that nothing good happens. Haiqing Zhenren looked at his legs: "Yi Wuya told you to do this?" β
"Uh, yes." Tu Shi replied honestly.
"Then I'll follow suit." Haiqing Zhenren said as he stepped forward and grabbed Tu Shi's left hand and slapped his palm three times with the golden flute. These three strokes were not as painful as the previous few corporal punishments, but Tu Shi was horrified to find that the [Cangtong] and [Shrink to Inch] in his skill column had all been crossed - they couldn't be used! Look at the real qi bar again, damn it, there are four small words "abnormal state" written next to the real qi bar, and I can't even use a trace of true qi!
Haiqing Zhenren put away the golden flute and said, "Now your meridians are closed, and you are only one line stronger than normal people, and the injured spider spirit is half a catty and eight taels." Even so, do you insist on going? β
"Go!" Tu Shi gritted his teeth and was ruthless, and then begged: "Master, you can seal my skills, why bother to seal my true anger?" Master Zuo didn't do it! I don't have true qi, how can I use 'Daisy'? β
"Aren't you used to using those broken swords? And you also have an iron sword on you. β
Tu Shi was helpless. He did have a spare iron sword on him, which he bought before he obtained the "Carved Boat", and then he kept throwing it in the storage bag and did not move, but he didn't expect this sword to see the light of day one day.
"It's good to do it yourself." Master Right left four words and left freely, really with character.
Say goodbye to the right master and go out of the city. He walked on the road, every step was very slow, very slow, even slower than before, as slow as the legendary Dayu who controlled the water, measuring the vast land step by step. The players around him are walking like flying, which makes him very peculiar.
Why are there so many players outside the South City Gate? Because players think that the Dead Forest may refresh the boss, and the last one has been destroyed by NPCs, this one must not be missed. The Xuanyuan family also thought so, and immediately some members spontaneously formed a team to explore the Cave Field and the Dead Corpse Forest. In the vast plain in front of them, players are clustered together, all around poison ivy caves.
"Brother, newcomer?" A warrior who deliberately displayed his levelβlevel 23βgreeted Tu Shi: "You also want a piece of the pie?" I don't think you can even beat poison ivy, right? β
Tu Shi was just about to answer, but the other party continued to speak to himself: "Do you want to practice?" One or two silver an hour, it's cheaper for you. β
"Do you look at me like I want someone to lead me?" Tu Shi thought it was funny. It was thanks to him that the post station here was built.
"How doesn't it look like it?" The other party frowned: "Novice Murayama boar skin armor, the most inferior iron sword, and a miscellaneous equipment that I got out of nowhere...... It's not that I'm talking about you, brother, with your equipment, no team wants you. β
Tu Shi looked at it, and the other party was not wrong. I'm too lazy to change my equipment, and as for what bracelets and shoes are all picked up from poison ivy holes, they are not good goods, but they are better than picking them up for nothing.
Seeing that Tu Shi was silent, the warrior said: "Looking at your movement speed, either your shoes are whiteboards, or your agility is too low." You're not below level 20, are you? Yes? Did I really say that? You're not an open beta player? β
Tu Shi was helpless: "I'm an open beta player. β
"Then you've got some food! Open Beta players mixed up to the point where you...... Alas, don't you want to practice? β
"No thanks."
The warrior ate the closed door soup, and scolded behind Tu Shi: "After talking for a long time, it turns out that there is no money, and I am reluctant to spend even a tael of silver!" β
Tu Shi shrugged and ignored it. He is indeed poor, after all, the money and materials are all given to his classmates.
Walking further, Tu Shi saw a team beating poison ivy, and immediately became interested and walked over to watch.
"Qiankun" has a team of up to five people, a minimum of two people, once more than five people, you need to go to the City Lord's Mansion to register as a fixed team, the procedures are troublesome and need to pay the registration fee, so most players choose to form a team of five. Of course, registration has the advantage of registration, those who do not register are called wild teams, and those who register are called mercenary groups, and they can receive some tasks that wild teams and individual players cannot receive.
Tu Shi was now observing a mercenary group, all of whom had the same badge on their chests, a long sword standing at the end of the earth. Tu Shi remembered that he had seen this style on the forum, it was the "Xuanyuan Sword" badge of the Xuanyuan family, and the Xuanyuan family claimed that if there was a Xuanyuan Sword in "Qiankun", they would be bound to get it.
There are two ways to fight the big poison ivy, the small team in front of me chooses the more risky but efficient one, that is, let the blood cow team members jump down first to carry the poison ivy attack and attract its attention, and then the assassin takes the opportunity to jump down and attack the weak point of the poison ivy carapace, and the rest of the team members can't go up, and they can only be restrained by rope sleeves, flying claws and other props from the side.
Now the battle has entered the white heat, because of the fierce resistance of poison ivy, the hole of this poison ivy hole has become much larger, only to see the writhing and struggling huge insect body, a body swaying with a player holding the insect's waist with one hand, the other hand desperately poked at the other party's body; Whenever Poison Ivy tries to stab the player behind him with its tail, the Blood Ox Warrior underneath slashes out his weapon with force, interrupting his attack. Poison ivy can't take care of the tail, and when the physical strength falls to the cordon, he goes crazy and hits the wall of the cave, except for the blood ox warrior who can carry it twice, any profession will be killed by this blow in seconds. This is the time to test the player's reflexes, the Assassin must get out in time, and the rest of the players must also do their job of responding.
At this time, the big poison ivy made the last dying struggle, and the three long legs (one of which was cut off by the warrior) were supported, and the back was fiercely leaned against the cave wall! When it was too late, the Assassin, who had been prepared early, instantly jumped to the cave wall, grabbed the rope hanging from his teammates, and drew a half-arc like a pendulum in the cave wall, and flew to the other end of the cave in the air! However, there was a slight mistake, as the player above did not hold on to it, and the rope slid down, and the assassin snorted, and his knee was already scraped on the cave wall.
After the battle, the warrior harvested the materials, and the assassin jumped up first, patted the soil on his knees, looked at the bloody wounds, and said dissatisfied: "What's the matter?" β
"It's him!" The teammate hurriedly pointed at Tu Shi: "He came over to see it just now, and he scared me, so I didn't hold ...... steadily."
Tu Shi is inexplicable, this can also be his own business? Seeing that the assassin looked displeased, he hurriedly apologized: "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm curious, come and see, it's not a heart." β
Then the other party's words made him almost vomit blood: "Go somewhere else, you seem to be too low-level, and it's a mess when you come." β
Damn, do I look so weak! If it weren't for the fact that my experience gauge was twice as long as yours, I would have surpassed you by now!
Tu Shi continued to walk. The Cave Field is open, and classes with good vision, such as archers, can take most of the scenery into view, and there are too many players here, if Tu Shi is a monster, he will definitely not choose to hide here. On the contrary, the forest of the dead is different, the forest is dimly lit, and the poisonous miasma is pervasive, and counting the underground labyrinthine like poison ivy empty nests, there are countless places to hide, so the forest of the dead is the best hiding place for monsters.
Along the way, Tu Shi also saw another way to fight poison ivy, that is, to use a long rod equipped with an iron hook head, supplemented by flying claws, to pull poison ivy from the hole to the ground, and then besiege it. This method is conservative, and although it is laborious (the team configuration is basically martial arts), it is safe enough because you don't have to go down into a narrow hole, and you can have plenty of space to dodge and move. Players of low rank all use this style of play, and only a team with a high-sensitivity assassin and a martial artist equipped with high-defense equipment like the Xuanyuan family will choose to play risky.
The big poison ivy is afraid of light, and the first action in a well-lit environment is to cover his face with his arms. Instinct prompts it to flee back to the cave, so it must be intercepted in the first place, and then the player can beat the poor creature without the will to fight. Because Poison Ivy has no walls to draw on, it's easy to lose its center of gravity, and players can knock it to the ground by striking at its two supporting feet, exposing its belly, which is almost never exposed to enemies and is firmly blocked by its four legs (which is an absolute crux). Even if the big poison ivy broke out on the offensive when it was dying, it didn't matter, all the personnel instantly retreated, and waited a second before coming up and beating up. It is said that this is the reward of the Xuanyuan family from an experienced insect curer, but there is no impermeable wall in the world, and it quickly spreads among the masses - after all, China is a large copycat country.
Tu Shi watched it with relish. He had no experience in teaming up with people, and he didn't know that poison ivy could fight like this, which was really another valuable lesson. Suddenly, his heart tightened - there was a demonic spirit!
"Something is wrong, this guy actually crawled out on his own!"
"It's an elite monster! No, it's a rare elite! β
"Damn, what's that, it eats the same kind?"
Following the player's exclamation, Tu Shi looked. I saw a large poison ivy in the distance revealing half of its body from the entrance of the hole, and the upper body exposed by this alone was much stronger than that of ordinary large poison ivy, and it was one and a half times that of its kind; And its left hand grasping the remains of the large poison ivy pressed against the ground faithfully serves as a model of contrast, like a weak doll in its hands. It glanced at the excited, noisy players, and suddenly looked up to the sky and laughed, a laughter more akin to the buzzing of insects, high-frequency, harsh, noisy, and at once overwhelmed the voices of all players.
The laughter stopped.
The oversized poison ivy said coldly:
"It's good, I'm only three full."
