Chapter 8: A Copy of the Mutation
The forest is very lively in the morning, the chirping birds are like an alarm clock, and the gentle sunlight shines through the leaves, gently caressing Grimm's face. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
Green twisted his neck and found that he didn't feel any discomfort - after all, he was sleeping in the open in the wild, and he didn't even have a sleeping bag, and Green was ready to wake up with a cold or a sore back.
"Huh? What about the maid lady? Green got up from the ground and looked around nervously, "Is it all at once?" ”
At this moment, the maiden came out of the grove with some wild fruits and wild vegetables.
"Miss maid, good morning~" Green greeted happily.
The girl walked up to Green, put down the wild vegetables and fruits in her hand, and then handed the two sauce worms to Green.
Green looked at the two big white insects the size of a palm, then looked at the girl in front of him, and suddenly understood what the girl meant.
"I see. Do you want me to cook this bug? A smile tugged on Green's face. Girl, yesterday you completely ignored my food, and today you finally know how to please me, right?
Make a fire, cook, and soon Green has made two fried sauce worm vegetable rolls.
"One for each person~" Green handed a vegetable roll to the girl, and then kept one for himself.
The girl took the vegetable roll handed over by Green and took a bite!
A satisfied smile appeared on the girl's face.
After a simple breakfast and some food for lunch by the way, Green took the girl who "picked up" and set out on the journey again.
After a long day's trek, Green and the girl finally arrived in the Outland Mountains.
The Otlan Mountains, stretching from Lake Lordamere in the west to Plague Canyon in the east, and across the northern part of the Silverleaf Forest, are the border between the Kingdom of Palomia and the Northern Republic of the Undead, as well as a natural barrier to prevent the northern undead from moving south. As a border line, the Outland Mountains have also left many large and small battlefield relics in many disputes, and many of them have also been turned into "copies" in the game. Green's goal is a small copy of the "Smuggler's Secret Tunnel".
"Smuggler's Tunnel", a level 5 five-player mini-quest in the game. The tunnel was originally used by a group of smugglers to smuggle goods, and it was only through this tunnel that one could reach the realm of the undead across the Otlan Mountains. However, the group of smugglers had an accident during a smuggling process, and they all died in this tunnel and became undead, and this secret tunnel to the north of the Aotland Mountains also collapsed for various reasons, until a player built a city here, and the tunnel was dug again.
The enemies in the "Smuggler's Tunnel" are mainly skeleton soldiers of about level 5, and the final boss is a level 6 skeleton mage and a level 8 skeleton warrior.
For Green, the level of this dungeon is obviously slightly higher, and it is a bit difficult to farm alone, but Green is not alone now, but with a level 10 NPC that can single-handedly take on the undead scout! As long as the NPC doesn't hang up, it's still okay to farm a level 5 dungeon with Green.
"I think it should be around here." Green looked at the system map, trying to find the target location.
Greensilver's [Local Knowledge・Silver Leaf Forest Area] skill is level 3, and all of them have a detailed map of the Silver Leaf Forest area. With the help of the system map, Green doesn't have to worry about getting lost at all, and he can find exactly where he wants to go, but the Aotlan Mountains are no longer part of the scope of the "Silver Leaf Forest", so the map is full of fog, and Green has to rely on his memory to explore.
However, although the real-life scene has changed slightly from the game, it can still be barely recognized if you look closely.
Soon, based on the experience of his previous life, Green found his destination: an abandoned altar located under a mountain cliff.
Under the sword-like cliff stood a huge stone more than a man high, and a small inconspicuous altar was in the leeward side next to the boulder. The altar is so dilapidated that even the emblem on the altar is no longer visible, and it looks like a camping site that no one is using.
"Miss maid, come and do me a favor and move this altar away!" Green walked over to the altar and turned back to greet the girl.
Compared to Green, whose strength is only at the level of a kobold, the girl can be called a "strong man"! With the help of the maiden, the altar was quickly pushed aside, revealing the hidden cave behind the altar, from which a smell of corruption wafted out.
Looking at the cave that appeared behind the altar, the expression on the girl's face moved slightly. Is this a hidden tunnel?
Smelling the smell wafting from the cave, Green couldn't help but frown: there is no such unpleasant rancid smell in the game.
"Miss maid, take out your flint and steel, and borrow a fire." Green took the three torches he had prepared from his back and handed one of them to the maiden.
They were three improvised torches made from dead branches and vines, and the torches had long handles. When lit, the torch looks like a flaming spear with a burning tip - the Skeleton has a high resistance to piercing damage, but has a negative resistance to fire damage, making it easy to use even heavy weapons like a heavy hammer against low-level skeletons.
Green lit the torch, took one in each hand, and walked into the cave.
Outside the cave, the girl hesitated for a moment, but finally followed.
The dark tunnel wasn't very wide, and even the two of them walked side by side, so Green walked in front with a torch, and the girl walked behind with a broom with a short sword and another torch.
When the two turn a corner, a rotting zombie suddenly appears in front of Green.
"Rotten zombies? Damn it! Shouldn't it be skeletons? Grimm was shocked, and while holding the torch as a weapon against the zombie, preventing the zombie from approaching, he hurriedly retreated!
"Scorch: Deals 1 life damage."
The torch burns on the rotting zombie's body, emitting a scorching smell, but the rotting zombie itself doesn't seem to have taken much damage.
And at this moment, the girl who followed Grimm in the original book suddenly stepped forward and switched places with Grimm, and at the same time pulled out the short sword in the broomstick and slashed off the neck of the rotten zombie with one sword.
Spike!
Green looked at the head that fell to the ground, and without hesitation, he pulled out the sword on his waist, stepped forward, and stabbed it hard!
"Squeak~" The iron sword made a piercing grinding sound, and then pierced the zombie's head with a sword.
A red number "-1" slowly emerges from the skull.
Sure enough, he didn't die!
Bites of golden light flew out of the rotting zombie's skull and sank into Grimm's chest.

For undead creatures such as zombies and skeletons, as long as the soul fire is still there, even if the body is dismantled, it will not really die. So if you want to use physics NPCs to practice, zombies, skeletons and other undead creatures are undoubtedly the best choice - NPCs kill monsters, players can't gain experience, only the player's own kills can gain experience. The NPC's physical attacks usually only knock the undead creature into a near-death state, giving the player a chance to make up for it.
Although the leveling was quite smooth, when Green saw the corpse of the rotting zombie, he couldn't help frowning: "But aren't the monsters in the secret tunnel skeleton soldiers?" How did you turn into a rotten zombie? ”
