……

At this time, in front of the dungeon portal in the central square of Camp Roger. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

A paladin player in plate armor was pale, his hands trembling as he clenched his shield and sword. He looked completely different from the red-eyed people who were brushing copies, and instead had an expression of imminent death.

But even though he was afraid that his hands and feet were trembling, and he was afraid that his face would lose blood, he gritted his teeth and did not walk away. He gritted his teeth hard, stared at the bull's-eyed eyeballs, and pulled out a scroll of "Quest Teleportation Permission" from the storage compartment.

……

His name is Kate, and he is an ordinary member of the Storm Guild.

Although he is also a "veteran player" who entered the game in the first open beta, to be honest, his game level and combat talent are really average.

Generally, ordinary players in the first open beta have already hovered at level 16 or 17 on average at this time, and even the masters have begun to try to hit the elite level. He's still in a humiliating situation where he's more than half experienced at level 11. Some of the second Open Beta players who later joined the guild are now able to catch up with him.

His wastewood-like escalation speed is inseparable from his natural cowardice.

……

Above the horizontal, sturdy white man with short chestnut hair, this sturdy young man was an ordinary citizen of a small country in the Amazon basin of South America.

He has another identity, that is, he was once a member of the original tribe of the Amazon forest. Not the kind of matriarchal clan, of course. Rather, it is an ordinary tribal clan that makes a living from hunting.

Speaking of this, I have to praise the truth that 'the extremes of things must be opposed', fate is always unexpected.

Because Kate has lived in the city for too long, she has long become a completely different kind of people from her own people who can fight all kinds of poisonous insects and beasts with a wooden spear.

Not only did he not inherit any of the ferocity, bravery, and aggressiveness, but he discarded them as signs of uncivility early on. Be a good citizen in a society governed by the rule of law.

However, having trained as a tribal warrior in the forest tribe for a while, Kate is not really useless, at least he is extremely sensitive to the feeling of danger.

With this special induction, he worked as a tour guide in the city for the Amazon forest. Every day, I take foreign tourists to see the scenic spots on the edge of the forest, and take care of their trivial things such as eating, drinking, pulling, and sprinkling, and I can barely make ends meet.

It's a pity that the somewhat dangerous job of a forest guide has not awakened his own buried fighting heart. As soon as the guest asked to go deeper into the forest, he immediately abandoned the mission. No matter how high the price is offered, it will not work!

Until he became a Global Darkness player,...... And still!

In fact, most players don't know that the real-world life climate and personal personality preferences can affect a person's career choice.

The system has pulled people three times in the Amazon basin, and basically 90% of people's souls are biased towards nature, and they are given druid templates. But this Kate happens to be unaffected by geography, and his soul bias is a very rare defensive orientation, which is judged by the system to be suitable for paladins.

Actually, he just wanted to be safer!

……

Kate never goes out alone to kill monsters, at most she only teams up with a few powerful squads to walk around the Icy Plains. Or turn on the defensive aura, follow some activities organized by the guild to paddle the water, and brush up on the sense of presence.

Oh, that's right! He was actually present at the last Tristram incident. But he was timid and afraid, and he had already prepared the teleportation scroll, which was also extremely expensive for him at that time. After the opening CG ended, he saw the monster like the tide pounce on him, and he immediately used the teleportation scroll and left.

Later, after hearing that the guild had suffered heavy losses, he became even more determined to save his life in obscenity.

……

It stands to reason that a person like him, who takes saving his life as his first priority, will not take the initiative to challenge the slightly difficult "mercenary copy".

However, there are surprises!

Ninety-nine percent of the accidents that can make men rise up are women!

The woman Kate likes is none other than one of the original mercenaries of the Stormwind Guild. Her name is Kana, and she is a Rogue archer with a fiery figure and a very mature temperament.

Because the soul and memories have just been implanted in the body by the system, this beautiful archer, who looks like a mature woman, will often be in a daze with an object. Sometimes it's a grass, a flower, a cloud, and sometimes, it's a person!

All right! …… After being "gazed at affectionately" by Kana's beautiful eyes for half an hour, Kate, a bachelor who had low self-esteem since childhood because she was born in a barbarian tribe and had never been in a relationship with her, completely fell.

Fortunately, the mercenaries obtained by chartering the Blood Bird are considered a common resource of the guild. Kate also had the opportunity to pursue, so she didn't fall into a bloody plot like a love triangle. But at only level 11, he doesn't have any personality highlights, and compared to his competitors, it's not a little bit worse.

In this regard, Kate just sighed deeply, and there was no good way. But at this moment, it turned around.

After the "Mercenary Dungeon" was released, 99% of the members of the guild immediately "empathized". Turned his attention to the unfinished quest mercenaries. Kate's competitors are suddenly left with only a few novice players who are also not very happy.

So, Kate thought her chance had come.

He rented a hotel in an inn in Camp Rog, bathed and perfumed, shaved off some of his exuberant hairs, bought a large tuft of purple roses, and brewed many beautiful words, and confessed to his dream lover Kana the next morning when the sun was just rising.

As for the results...... As a result, he suffered a huge blow to his heart, and he came to the portal of this "mercenary dungeon" alone.

"Kana~! I will prove that you have made the wrong choice. Kate gritted her teeth and said fiercely to herself.

He then shredded the scroll, and the portal opened automatically under the guidance of the scroll's magical power.

Yes~~! Kate roared to embolden herself, grabbed her shield and plunged headlong into the dungeon......

The next moment, Kate felt a flower in front of her eyes, and then found herself on a meadow.

……

D-level difficulty dungeons!

The blue sky and white clouds, the breeze was blowing, and the surrounding hills and the somewhat dense grass in front of Kate made him wonder where he was for a moment. Is it in the wrong place?

However, before Kate tried to call up her game map to check, the opening CG began. …… After the laughter of the Great Demon King~~, Kate regained her mobility.

He now knew he wasn't in the wrong place. So, all that's left is to get through this copy......

Because she never farms monsters like crazy, Kate's equipment is very ordinary, and her whole body is just an ordinary whiteboard and one or two pieces of blue equipment.

Although the shield in his hand was a little heavier, and the lethality of the one-handed sword was slightly insufficient, the feeling of being covered and being able to improve his means of saving his life made him feel very relieved.

After checking his sword and shield to make sure there was no problem, Kate turned her head warily to look around.

"Karanishu~~!" Not surprisingly, a large wave of bladed demons appeared in view.

Although the close relatives of this Sinking Demon are weak, their numbers should not be underestimated. For ordinary players with low defense, it is still quite a threat. Because of the wide division and the large number of them, since the beginning of the game, there have been many unlucky eggs who have died in their hands because of carelessness.

And Kate's luck was very bad at this time. Because of the refresh immediately, a large wave of blade demons surrounded them from all directions. Obviously, passive defense is not a good option in this situation.

"One-two...... Twenty-one. Kill twenty-one blade demons alone? Come on~! He counted it simply, and it was exactly twenty-one.

Kate tightened the sword and shield in her hand, and decisively opened the aura of "resistance". Because of his fear of death, the defensive aura that was added to level four directly doubled his already not low defense power at once.

Coupled with his own weapons and equipment, although Kate was apprehensive, she still took the initiative to face the blade demon in front of her.

"Here we are...... Kill~!!! ”

When Kate was ready for battle and saw the six in front of her, she roared angrily, took the initiative to rush forward, and launched an attack.

"Click-"

Although the attack power of the one-handed sword is insufficient, it is barely able to deal with the blade demon with thin skin and little blood. After slashing his neck, he actually killed one at once. The hanged blade demon died on the grass without saying a word.

"Karanishu~~!"

And as he killed the first blade demon with a decapitation sword, the remaining five blade demons suddenly exploded, and they all fled behind him with a shout......

"Good opportunity~, go die!"

Seeing this kind of situation where the enemy took the initiative to flee and exposed her back, Kate rushed forward with excitement on her face, swung her sword and began to chase down the fleeing blade demons one by one.

Click~~! Karanihu~! Click......

With the constant sound of blades slashing into flesh and the screams of blade demons, Kate's performance fully confirms the meaning of the idiom "tiger into the flock" on Earth. In less than two minutes, the five-headed blade demon fell to the ground. And at this point, Kate didn't even lose blood......

"Whew~~! Doesn't it seem that difficult to kill monsters or something alone......"

Holding her shield, Kate's face flushed slightly. He now feels that killing monsters alone is completely different from the feeling of rubbing experience in normal times.

And when they kept chasing and killing the five fleeing blade demons before, these four monsters just ran away with their heads in their hands, and they didn't have the idea of turning around and resisting at all. He just needs to catch up, with his sword up and down, and his sword down...... One sword at a time, the killing is naturally hearty.

Seeing more than a dozen Sinking Demons coming around behind her, Kate's desire to fight, which had long been buried, finally began to move!

He didn't wait for these blade demons to come over, so he took the initiative to kill them with his shield and sword......

Truth be told, Kate dared to be so bold at this time to fight against a dozen Blade Demons alone, mainly because one of the six had just died, and the other five had all run away to herd sheep and didn't even dare to reflexively strike at the Blade Demons.

They give Kate a lot of confidence!

(Devil of Peromination/Blade Demon: Thank us, we are the psychology teachers of professionals.) ）

Half an hour later, after some chase, slash and kill...... Kate finally chops off the head of the last fleeing blade demon. At this time, he also had several blood stains all over his body, and his blood volume had dropped by a third. But it's all trifl...... The point is that you win!

Kate excitedly picked up a gold coin that burst out on the ground, and she didn't expect that there would be an unexpected gain. No matter how small the mosquito's legs are, they are still meat, and they can more or less make up for the 50 gold coins they lost.

Switch the "Resistance Aura" that increases defense to the "Prayer Aura" that regenerates health, and Kate's HP will quickly recover......

Knock~~, knock~~~, knock knock!

With the sound of low music, the first boss appears. An elite blade demon with the prefix "Cold Enhanced" and armed with an ice-blue knife and a shield is teleported to Kate's front.

"Karanihu~!"

He also brandished the blade in his hand, yelling and threatening at Kate at the loud voice.

But the effect doesn't seem to be very good!

Before this prefixed elite blade demon was in majesty for two seconds, Kate pulled out her sword and shield, switched to the "anti-cold" aura and killed it directly. He thought in his heart: This kind of elite monster is bound to burst out of gold coins and equipment!

"Die~!"

After two battles with the Blade Demon, Kate is now confident of victory.

…… Five minutes later, Kate, who had two wounds on her body, stabbed the blade demon elite in the back with her one-handed long sword, and the bloodstained blade of the sword came out directly from the blade demon's chest, and then he took it back.

……

With the death of the Elite Blade Demon, a swirling portal reappears in front of you, which leads to the second level, another mound with eight Moon Clan monsters.

With the foreshadowing of the first victory, Kate's current confidence has also been inspired.

Although the high damage of the "Moon Clan", it is slightly injured compared to him, a level 11 paladin. But Kate is a paladin who is mainly promoted to defend the aura. The hard ones also look like turtle shells. By switching between the two auras of "Resistance" and "Prayer", he kept exchanging blood with these Moon Clans by running, and finally dragged them to death.

Although the elite "Moon Clan" that appeared at the end had the attribute of being particularly strong, the attack was even more fierce, almost making Kate unable to bear it. But with a sigh of relief in his heart, he forced himself to carry it.

When he stood on the corpse of the elite monster of the "Moon Clan", he felt that his whole person was completely different. A special temperament emanates from Kate's bones......

After overcoming her character weaknesses, Kate's spiritual transformation quietly began. After that, he felt in great shape, his skills were more like his fingers, and his body was more coordinated.

After that, the beast (giant beast) level and the skeleton level are more difficult than the "Blade Demon Pass" and "Moon Clan Pass", but Kate copes with it more easily.

……

Two hours later, the bald head of the last elite skeleton was finally cut off, and Kate, who had several blood stains and scars all over her body, heard a voice announcing that she had cleared the dungeon. Then, he appeared in a pure white space.

"Finished? It's over? ”

With a bit of surprise, disbelief and amazement, Kate muttered to herself about the pure white world in front of her.

He hates adventures and killing, and he actually has a feeling of nostalgia for killing in the dungeon world. It's just that the dungeon is, after all, just a paid "mercenary dungeon"! No matter how rich he is, he can't spend 50 gold coins a day to farm monsters and upgrade them.

Although gold coins and equipment are also dropped in it, the amount of income depends entirely on the "face". Obviously, Kate's "face" is not as white as Yi Xiaochuan.

"Player Kate, you have cleared the D-level difficulty Mercenary Dungeon.

Excuse me, do you receive the relevant reward medals after clearing the customs? Yes or no. ”

Does this need to be asked?

He wouldn't choose no unless he had his brain pumped.

"Pick it up! Get it now! ”

Kate decisively chose to claim the reward. Isn't that what he risked to get into the 'Mercenary Dungeon' for?

Hearing Kate's answer, a heart-shaped red medallion appeared in the pure white space and floated into his hand.

"This,...... Rewarded girl... Cough~... What about mercenaries? Kate mentioned that the "mercenary" blushed a little, and I don't know if he was excited or shy.

Bite~~!

Three three-dimensional images of Rog's mercenaries armed with bows and arrows appear in front of Kate.

"It's so realistic, it's so beautiful!" Kate's eyes lit up.

High-definition, high-contrast ...... It was so close that even the pores on the faces of the three Rogge girls could be seen clearly. The "ingenious" Kate also unexpectedly found that she could rotate and magnify the three-dimensional image by fluctuating the screen, and call up information such as "three measurements" and various personalities.

Although not all of these three girls are national, but in the eyes of people on the earth, they are also one in a million. The age group of appearance is also 16, 22, 26, and the golden age of the three women is there; Lori type, temperament type, mature woman type, all covered.

"This ...... Who to choose? ”

Kate couldn't take notice. Honestly, he wanted all three, but ...... It's impossible! The official game is not so generous.

"Game tip: You have 15 seconds left to pick the act. After 15 seconds, the player relinquishes ownership of the three Rog Mercenaries by default, and the three Mercenaries will be automatically teleported into the Mercenary Training Camp.

After that, the player can use the medal in his hand to find the elder of the Rog camp, Kasha, and find his mercenary through mutual will.

No one can only claim the badge once! The next time the player enters the 'Mercenary Dungeon' again, they will not receive this reward. ”

"Consensual?"

Kate took a deep breath and remembered that she had been rejected by her dream lover Kana.

This choice, no matter how unreliable! Unless he has a face that everyone loves and flowers bloom, if he wants to conquer a woman with his own charm, he should not think about it.

"I choose...... This one! Finally, Kate's fingers trembled slightly and pointed at the 26-year-old mature mercenary. In contrast, this one of the three mercenaries was the most exciting for him. (Actually, Kate didn't even notice that he still had the shadow of Kana in his heart.) ）

Airplanes~~! With a flash of light, the 26-year-old Rogge mercenary was "pinched out" by the system...... Forehead...... Teleport out (he can't see it anyway).

Sure enough, it looks exactly like the characters in the 3D image!

Kate plucked up her courage and reached over with her sweaty hand and grabbed hers. …… There was no resistance! The mercenary just turned her head and stared at Kate with a blank, dependent gaze, a submissive mess.

was teleported out of this pure white space, if it weren't for the jade hand in her hand, Kate really couldn't believe that she would have a "woman" of her own from now on.
