Chapter 3 - The Eve of the Tournament (Attention)

"Fine Snow: Relying on a special organ in the throat, it spews out a very intense cold. Able to freeze enemies.

Originally, it only belonged to Ace? Loyes's ice magic, but because of something from Ace? The unknown undead of Loyes were spread across the continent.

Level: 1

Mana Drain: 7"

"The plot of Black Souls 2? Although I haven't played much, I still remember watching those guys die as dogs~" Under the faint light of the mobile phone, Lu Ming lay on the hard bed, looking at the introduction of fine snow's skills, and couldn't help but sigh.

The skill of fine snow, Lu Ming has already tested, and 7 points of mana are just a gust of cold wind. So after thinking about it, he added the skill points given in the main quest to the seed machine gun, increasing it to 5.

Although it is said that because of the lighting of the skill of fine snow, there are several more skills that can be learned on the skill tree. But how can the white fog and black fog of the ice system and the water system play with water, shrink shells, and break out of the shells of ordinary systems?

Although he didn't know how powerful the level 5 seed machine gun was, Lu Ming felt that it should be able to penetrate ordinary armor. Compared to unreliable skills, or wasting skill points on level 1 fine snow, it is always possible to upgrade the Seeded Machine Gun.

After looking at the skill bar for a while, Lu Ming clicked on the task bar.

At this time, there are no other tasks in the taskbar except for the main quest [Make you look down on people]. Because it hadn't reached 0:00 midnight yet, and the daily tasks had not yet been refreshed, in desperation, Lu Ming had no choice but to drink a bottle of primordial ash to fill up the mana that had only 2 points left, and then fell asleep-

In the morning, Lu Ming, who slept soundly, was woken up by the sun shining in through the window.

I glanced at my phone and found that it was only 6 o'clock, so I turned over and planned to sleep for a while. But he heard the sound of Lily preparing breakfast downstairs.

Thinking about how he could get up later than a girl, he immediately turned over a carp, got up from the bed, hurriedly put on his shoes, and ran to the bathroom to wash.

It's just that when he finished washing up and sat down at the dining table with his phone, he suddenly found that World Will, who had sent him a message, had sent him another message.

"For some reason, I've taken skills from you once again. To compensate you, I've put a costume raffle ticket in your parcel slotter. Hope you get lucky.

From: The Will of the World: Pulu~"

"Ah~Why do these guys like to sell cute~"

"Selling cute? What is that? Because of the information of the world's will Pulu~, Lu Ming sighed. But she was accidentally understood by Lily, and she asked with some confusion.

"I can't tell, but I think you're a little cute like you are now." Lu Ming couldn't explain what selling cuteness was, but Lily looked puzzled, and she was really cute.

"Cute?" Lily still looked puzzled, unable to understand what Lu Ming was saying. However, she didn't care about any of this, and soon went back to preparing breakfast.

At this time, Lu Ming also took the opportunity of Lily to make breakfast and glanced at the clothing lottery tickets given by the will of the world.

"Costume Lottery Ticket: You can use this to draw a nice outfit.

It is said that this is a treasure given by Princess Sunshine to knights and saints, but because of uncertainty, it is easy to appear clothes that do not match their status, so they are regarded as collectibles by knights and saints.

Hint from Pulu~: This one can only draw men's clothing~"

"Hehehe

After a slight glance at the name of the clothes on the roller, Lu Ming closed his eyes with a broken jar. He knew that at this time, it was better not to look at it. Because according to the experience of the previous lotteries, he can be sure that the above one of the things he draws must be a great thing. But the system won't give it to you!

In the end, Lu Ming drew a set of white shirts, blue jackets, black pants, and leather boots called [Greed Crystallization].

"Greedy Crystallization: Clothes and leather boots made by the undead from the silk thread of spiders and the skin of crystallized lizards that eat crystallized lizards.

It used to be the non-war civilian clothes of the Immortals of the Fortress of Fran, but was cursed because of the fall of the Immortals. It has a strengthening effect on dark arts, ghostly spells, and evil spells."

"The clothes that the Salary King once wore?" This outfit didn't seem very good to Lu Ming, but if you think about the clothes on Dirks, the village chief, and Lily, this outfit is almost as gorgeous as the clothes on the fat tax collector.

"Lily, I'll go change my clothes and come down later." After Lu Ming said a word to Lily, he went upstairs and went to change his clothes.

And Lily said to herself a little strangely: "When Lu Ming came yesterday, he didn't seem to have any luggage, right?" ”

Relying on a dinner, Lu Ming was no longer so shy that he couldn't speak, but in the end, he was still a little embarrassed. Moreover, just now I had the audacity to say that people are cute. Although Lily didn't understand, for this guy who didn't have a boyfriend in college, she almost didn't die of shame.

Back in the room, after Lu Ming closed the door, he took off the tattered robe on his body and replaced it with the [Greedy Crystal] suit.

The blue coat was a bit tight, but it wasn't the kind of dress that had to be buttoned up.

Because there is no mirror, Lu Ming doesn't know how he wears this one, but he feels that he should be better than the tax collector I don't know how many times!

Kicking his toes lightly, Lu Ming, who was dressed and leather boots, went downstairs. It turned out that the village chief was already eating the breakfast that Lily had prepared for him.

The village chief stuffed the last bite of food into his mouth, raised his eyebrows at Lu Ming defiantly, and said with a smile: "This set on the young man is very good!" A bit of an aristocratic feel! ”

Lu Ming gritted his teeth and sat opposite the village chief, as if his girlfriend's handmade things had been robbed, and glared at the village chief viciously.

Seeing this, the village chief couldn't help but smile and shook his head, ignored Lu Ming, and said to Lily instead: "Lily Hellas, the competition specially prepared for you is about to start, do you have any thoughts?" ”

Lily smiled as if she had nothing to do with herself, didn't bother with the village chief, and just put another breakfast prepared in front of Lu Ming by herself.

"Humph! I knew it! Seeing that Lily ignored herself, the village chief snorted coldly and said coldly: "Whatever you want!" However, after the tournament, please leave the village of Hellas within five days! ”

After saying that, the village chief brushed his sleeves and left.

Lu Ming, who didn't understand the situation, blinked his eyes and looked at Lily. Lily's surname is the name of the village, and it should be related to the village. But why did the village chief give such an ultimatum?

Moreover, why did the village chief, who was good to him and Dirks last night, speak coldly to Lily?

Unable to figure it out, he wanted to ask Lily.

But at this moment, bursts of firecrackers suddenly sounded outside the house, startling Lu Ming.

"Why are there firecrackers in this world?" Lu Ming muttered quietly, and walked out of the house with Lily.

At this time, I don't know when the villagers built a small ring out of wood, and two pillars were also inserted on both sides of the ring, and a flag with strange words was also hung on the pillar.

Although he couldn't understand what those words were written, Lu Ming knew that it should be a martial arts competition or something.

"Yo! You're asking for food, it's nice to dress up! Lu Ming followed Lily out of the house, and before he could see the people around the ring, he heard the taunt of the fat tax collector yesterday.

"But whoever asks for food wants food! Whatever you put on, it's just for food!! Hahaha~!! The tax collector pointed at Lu Ming, laughed and smiled at the two armored men beside him.

"Dead fatty! Who are you talking about! Hearing this, Lu Ming naturally couldn't bear it, he pulled out the sage candlestick, and planned to teach the dead fat man a lesson, but was pulled by Lily.

Looking back at Lily, seeing that she shook her head slightly to herself, Lu Ming, who didn't want Lily to be unhappy, had to endure it first, and when it was time for the competition, he would teach the fat tax collector a hard lesson.

As if seeing Lily holding Lu Ming's hand, the fat tax collector's face became gloomy for a moment, and he glanced gloomily at the village chief not far away.

It was such a glance, but Lu Ming was surprised to find that all the villagers, including the village chief and Dex, were glaring at Lily very angrily.

That kind of look, as if I couldn't wait for Lily to die immediately.

This made Lu Ming feel very puzzled, in his opinion, Lily is a very good girl, although she may be squinting or unable to see, but she has a good personality and is very gentle with Lu Ming, and there is nothing wrong with it at all. But what was the look in the eyes of those villagers?

"Humph!" The village chief seemed to see the confusion on Lu Ming's face, so he no longer glared at Lily so viciously.

He stepped into the ring, opened his arms, and said to everyone: "Today, we in Hellas Village are holding a tournament for Lily Hellas!" Whether it is a merchant, a commoner or a nobleman, if you want to marry this woman back home, you can marry this woman home as long as you defeat the competitors! ”

"And our rules are simple, just beat your opponent to the point of surrender or knock out the ring!"

The people under the ring, several people who were not from Hellas Village, cheered one after another. The people of Hellas Village, on the other hand, were cold and unenthusiastic about this matter at all.

"Now, let's start the martial arts competition! Contestants who want to get this woman will come to the ring! ”

Following the words of the village chief, two people dressed in relatively ordinary clothes who seemed to be passing merchants stepped into the ring.

"The joust begins!" The village chief shouted, and then ran off the ring, causing the two merchants to start a farce called a joust, but in fact a wrestling and scuffling.

Looking at this scene, Lu Ming, who couldn't stand it, couldn't help but cover his eyes and didn't look at the two middle-aged uncles fighting on the ground like children.

"What kind of joust is this!? Get out of here! ”――
