Chapter 10: The World of Local Tyrants
"But it was too much trouble, so I chose the easiest way."
Ning Yi's sword path is elegant, and every time he attacks the vital parts, he is fast and ruthless.
Gou Er was overwhelmed, angry and angry, and his mind was in a mess, so he revealed his emptiness.
"Haha, you just obediently die."
Ning Yi's fighting experience is so rich, he immediately saw the flaw, and then his dexterous figure turned to Gou's side like a butterfly piercing a flower, and the sword blade beckoned to his neck again, relying on his body to be higher than him, attacking two swords in a row, and killing him on the spot with super high critical damage.
"The wordless sword is worthy of being a weapon of Huiyue's quality, with it, my damage output is simply off the charts, and it is effortless to kill a level 15 elite NPC like Gou Er."
Ning Yi glanced at the steel sword flashing with silver-white light in his hand with satisfaction, if he still held the previous weapon, he would probably have to spend a lot of time trying to kill Gou Er.
The key is that this thing has a skill that seems to have a must-hit effect, and no matter how great Ning Yi is, he can't do things that the system doesn't allow.
After killing Gou Er, Ning Yinu took 800 experience, but unfortunately he now needs 4400 experience points to upgrade to level 1, so even if he hands in the task, I'm afraid he will have to continue to brush for a while to be promoted to level 8.
In addition to the small bag of coins, Gou Er exploded three things, and because it was a humanoid monster, it directly dropped money, equipment, and props.
Ning Yi opened the money bag, and there were 12 taels of silver and 380 coins in it. According to the current monetary system published in the Phantom World, 1 tael of gold = 10 taels of silver = 10 taels of copper = 10,000 copper coins.
Nowadays, ordinary players don't have more than 50 Wen on their bodies, so Ning Yi can be regarded as a wild little tyrant with ten pounds around his waist.
However, Ning Yi values the two pieces of equipment that Gou Er burst out, as well as the ancient book that he knew was a skill book at a glance.
Serrated Blade (Duskstar quality)
Attack 22-25
+3 Posture
[Tooth marks]: The wound caused by bleeding does not stop and is difficult to heal.

Militia Band (Dusk quality)

+3 Physique

Notes: Hope it can hold your little belly.
After reading the attributes of these two pieces of equipment, Ning Yi pursed his lips and said disdainfully: "Are the black wolf thieves so poor?" β
He didn't know that Gou Er had just joined the organization, or was a peripheral member at the bottom, so how could he have many valuable good things on him.
However, the skill book with the words tooth for tooth is not bad, so Ning Yi is worth the trip.
γA tooth for a toothγ

Notes: Assassins who are proficient in the art of killing know that no matter how strong your enemy is, when he starts attacking, he will reveal a fatal weakness.
How to obtain: Learn from the skill book, learn from NPCs.
"No wonder it hurt so much to hit me just now, and I can't dodge it with my movements."
Ning Yi didn't know that the reason why Gou Er joined the Black Wolf Thief was not only for money, but also to learn advanced martial arts.
But I don't want to learn martial arts, but now that people are dead, the lights are out, and all of them are cheaper.
Then Ning Yi took Gou Er's head to the village chief Taozhong to restore his life, and the crisis of destroying the village was temporarily lifted, and Taozhong was also quite generous, giving 2000 experience and 3 yuan of money.
I didn't give equipment or skill books, Ning Yi was quite disappointed, but for current players, 3 is a lot of money.
On the real virtual trading platform, 1 yuan can now be exchanged for 1,000 credits, which is enough for a month's food expenses!
However, Ning Yi felt that it was more cost-effective to sell the equipment he didn't use than to sell the game currency, so he privately made an appointment with a thousand noodles to meet at the entrance of the village.
Ning Yi, who was covered with a cloak and even hid his name, after canceling the appearance effect of the scar cloak, he was just a low-end player with shabby equipment and a shabby wallet.
The thousand-faced bottle was waiting at the agreed place early, almost not recognizing Ning Yi.
"See you again."
Ning Yi took off his hood, showed his face, looked at the thousand-faced milk bottle for a moment, and slandered in his heart: It seems that the master brother is a person who likes to pretend to be a pig and eat a tiger, it is too vulgar.
Because time flows faster in the game, only a day and a half have passed in reality, and almost five days have passed in the game.
Some lucky leveling maniacs also got their hands on a small amount of normal-quality equipment, so when Ning Yi took out the rusty iron sword and straw sandals to trade, the Thousand Faces Bottle seemed a little lacking in interest.
"Well, these two pieces of equipment, I'm counting the master brother with 1,200 credits."
This point of overloading can also slightly improve the efficiency of fighting monsters, but the thousand-faced baby bottle values Ning Yi, so the price given is quite high.
Ning Yi also saw the sincerity of the other party, so he decided to increase the weight: "I don't know if you are interested in these two things?" β
He took out the serrated blade and the god blessing that he didn't need, and as soon as these two treasures came out, he immediately suppressed the rich second generation of the thousand-faced milk bottle.
"Superb!"
Twilight quality equipment, who can play it now?
Within five miles of Songzhu Village, there are all beast monsters that don't drop their equipment, and the NPC players in the village can't beat them, and most of them are bitterly using rolling pins to ram mountain rabbits!
Even if it is the thousand-faced milk bottle itself, it is not that he spent credit to find a way to collect some game currency, and then asked the villagers to buy an ordinary quality firewood knife, which makes many people envy to death.
"I want it!"
The thousand-faced milk bottle is categorical, and he doesn't plan to ask the price at all, and he has to take it for everything about the Twilight quality weapon, as for the transfer certificate?
That's a good thing to get no matter how much it costs, the priest is a healing profession, there is a healer by his side, everyone can immediately form a group to go outside for adventure, this advantage is definitely strategic!
Ning Yi thought about it, stretched out five fingers, and just thought that the lion opened his mouth and blackmailed him for 50,000 yuan.
Who knew that the thousand-faced milk bottle was a real tyrant who didn't treat money as money at all, and said with a smile: "500,000 credits, the price is fair, I want it!" β
Ning Yi's hand froze in mid-air, his expression was stupid, and it took a long time to squeeze out a sentence: "It's good if you like it." β
The world of local tyrants is really difficult to understand, Ning Yi himself can't figure out why some people would spend tens of millions of dollars for virtual online games, but rich and willful local tyrants don't need others to understand how to do things.
When the baby arrived, the thousand-faced bottle trembled with excitement: "I can keep this knife for my own use, and as for the god Zhuwen, I will take it to the old demon, he is the best at playing this kind of auxiliary profession that adds blood." β
Within a while, Ning Yi received a transfer notification prompted by the system, and both parties cleared the money and goods, and both parties were quite satisfied with the transaction.
The thousand-faced milk bottle tasted the sweetness, and said to Ning Yi with a smile: "Brother master, remember to notify me as soon as there are good things in the future, money is definitely not a problem!" β
Of course, your wallet is absolutely fine, the problem is your head!
Ning Yi complained silently in his heart, he naturally would not let go of such a wronged leader, so he smiled and promised.
At the village chief's house, when Ning Yi told him about Gou Er, Tao Zhong's face turned pale: "Gou Er, this guy, is really disappointing to everyone!" β
Later, the village chief sent someone to search Gou Er's house, and sure enough, he found a lot of secret letters he wrote to the black wolf thief, which confirmed his crime of collaborating with bandits.
When Tao Zhong read one of the letters, his eyebrows furrowed deeply, and then he said to Ning Yi rather embarrassedly: "Absolute Sword Cangchen, I have a reluctant request here. β
System: You triggered the second phase of the hidden quest [Defend Songzhu Village], do you accept it?
Ning Yi thought it was strange before, in terms of difficulty, Gou Er was a level 15 elite monster, which was much higher than the lone wolf's residual teeth, there was no reason for the reward to be so low, it turned out that there was a follow-up mission.
Tao Zhong was worried: "In the northwest of the village, there is a wolf demon valley, in which a group of jackal demons live, the letter mentions that Gou Er represents the black wolf thief to contact it, I am worried that the two of them have joined forces, I hope Shaoxia you can go and investigate for me." β
"It's incumbent!"
Ning Yi made a righteous and awe-inspiring appearance, and took advantage of the situation to brush up on a wave of favorability!
System: Your reputation in Songzhu Village is +150, Taozhong's opinion of you is +200, and your relationship with Taozhong has changed from intimacy to trust.
received the second phase of the task of [Defending Songzhu Village] from Taozhong, but Ning Yi was not in a hurry to do it, because he also received the task of [Investigating Mass Graves] from Huo Cheng.
The system does not give the difficulty of each of the two tasks, which is obvious, and it is up to the player to analyze it for themselves.
Ning Yi thought about it for a while, and knew that it must be that the task of investigating the mass grave was simpler, after all, it was a hidden mission activated from the Residual Fang.
"Then let's go to a mass grave first."
To do tasks, of course, it is to choose the easy first and then the difficult, and rely on the task rewards to accumulate advantages, so that the subsequent tasks become more certain.
Putting the hood back on his head, covering his name and rank, Ning Yi began to act.
The mass grave was in a lush woodland west of the village, and even during the day, it was gray and white smoke, not to mention that it was already night.
Just by getting closer, it is as if you can hear many ghosts wailing in your ears, which makes people feel cold all over your body.
The horror atmosphere of the mass grave is rendered by Mirage as real enough, or a little too real for many players, to the point of making people tremble.
In this environment, few normal people can not be affected by this terrifying atmosphere, they are cowardly before fighting, and their strength is gone, and even if they come, they can only be slaughtered by ghosts.
However, Ning Yi is very human, when he played with swords in his previous life, the evil ghosts and demons did not know how many they had killed, and this small scene in front of him was just an appetizer for him.
So he walked quite calmly, as if he had come not to a cemetery, but to a playground.
The soft and damp soil, under the heaved mounds, I don't know whose corpses are buried. The bones are buried in a foreign land, no one sacrifices, and all those buried here are lonely souls and wild ghosts, and their grievances are soaring.
Unwillingness, resentment, distorting their will, allowing the ghost fire full of anger to burn in them.
Suddenly, a terrible ghost howl struck from the back of Ning Yi's head, and the yin wind gusted, making people's spines chill.
