Chapter 40: Rapid leveling
Accidentally bumping into an acquaintance was just a small episode in Shen Xia's return to Ginkgo Village. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
What really surprised him was the reunion with Fang Jin!
After seeing the code left by the other party at the agreed place, Shen Xia immediately put aside other things and found Fang Jin. I haven't seen him for more than 20 days, and this cousin of mine looks much stronger than before, with a little more professional arrogance, obviously he hasn't experienced the tempering of life and death, and he hasn't had time to fight those monsters that are far more powerful than the game.
However, this made Shen Xia see himself not long ago.
Seeing Shen Xia coming to the door, Fang Jin was also very happy. Moreover, after arriving at Ginkgo Village, he heard that Shen Xia used the trap to kill Scrooge Nine Lives, and he couldn't help but be even more happy for his cousin. After talking about some of the recent events in the Dao Academy, he couldn't wait to ask Shen Xia about fighting elite monsters.
For his own people, Shen Xia naturally knows everything.
Soon, Fang Jin learned the details of the battle from him, and also learned the method of achieving "Becoming Famous" in the [Debut] mission. Considering that it was very risky to rely on the current force of the two to join forces to kill the elite monsters, Fang Jin finally decided to follow the old path that Zhang Qi said, that is, to achieve the requirements of the system by completing tasks or commissions.
Early the next morning, the two of them moved early.
Under Shen Xia's guidance, Fang Jin quickly became familiar with the layout and main buildings of Ginkgo Village, and then looked for a task to help the Chen family's grocery store receive goods. Compared with Shen Xia's commission, Fang Jin's commission is less difficult, and he can go back and forth in a day to the villages near Ginkgo Valley, and the trouble is nothing more than to run a few more times. However, after spending three days, Fang Jin still successfully completed it, and also opened the third link of the [Healing Technique], a mandatory task.
Of course, compared to the remuneration Shen Xia received, Fang Jin's remuneration from the indigenous Chen family was much lower, with only a bundle of torches and a random scroll (short range), which could move randomly within a kilometer.
Fang Jin was not disappointed by this.
The difficulty of the commission is there, and it is obviously impossible to expect the aboriginal brains to give unrealistic returns. Moreover, the reason why he deliberately chose this commission was for the sake of being able to complete it quickly.
Without the concern of the required tasks, he and Shen Xia can move freely for the next period of time.
That's - level up as soon as possible!
The brief fight with Scrooge Nine Lives made Shen Xia deeply aware of the weakness of his strength. He can't wait to raise the level to LV7 first, and this is almost what all travelers care about the most after arriving at Ginkgo Village.
As for the right leveling point, he has already found it.
It's near the Xu family's medicine field!
In the half month that he was commissioned, Shen Xia had time to sneak out and scout the nearby terrain. Coupled with the intentional or unintentional inquiries when chatting with several guards, he determined a more suitable place for two people to level up.
However, before he can set off, he first needs to prepare the necessary food, water, tents, torches, and powder to repel poisonous insects. Magical sentries are also needed to warn themselves to reduce their burden at night.
The copper coins that had been inherited from Shang Wu had now been nearly half spent. The remaining copper coins are only enough to buy food and water. For the rest of the things, Shen Xia could only choose to pay with mana gold coins - the copper coins privately issued by the Beech Province could not be exchanged for the magic gold coins that circulated among professionals. But the reverse is different, almost all merchants are willing to accept it, and there are even special merchants and forces that provide the service of exchanging magic gold coins for copper coins.
Thankfully, Mana Gold is a very strong currency with a lot of purchasing power. It only took a few pieces, and Shen Xia had everything ready.
Then, the two of them each set off with a large bag on their backs - this is the helplessness of not having a storage package.
Lin Daotong in the Dao Courtyard was able to take out two of them casually because behind the other party stood the only aboriginal pharmacist in the Dao Courtyard. Shen Xia and the others, who had just changed careers, were not so easy to get storage packages. Even if it is a standard 5*8 grid package, relatively speaking, it is the most common, and you have to have money and popularity to get it.
At the very least, the ginkgo village is not for sale.
If you want to buy it with money, I'm afraid you can only buy it by going to Beechcraft King City.
………
After walking more than ten miles in the direction of the Xu family's medicine field, Shen Xia and Fang Jin turned a corner in the northeast direction, and then walked about three or four miles along the rugged ravine, crossed a small forest, and finally stopped in front of a clear small lake.
This is the largest water source within a radius of more than ten miles in the vicinity!
Not only do the beasts of the nearby woods come here to drink, but the surrounding magical beasts, including the nail rake cat group that attacked the Xu family's medicine field earlier, also come here to fetch water. In addition, the lake can provide Shen Xia and Fang Jin with additional water sources and abundant fish and shrimp, which indirectly supplement their food.
For two reasons, this is one of the best leveling points that Shen Xia can find.
After finding a high slope with a wide view and setting up a tent, Shen Xia and Fang Jin ate some dry food, rested for a while, and began to wait for the rabbits to get up near the bushes by the lake.
When encountering ordinary beasts, the two of them generally let them go, so as not to startle the snake.
If you happen to run into a lone monster and monster, then don't blame the two of them for being ruthless. As long as you are sure that you can beat them, and your strength is on the same level as that of scarecrows, nail rake cats, etc., you will strangle them all. The two pros join forces to have a great advantage against this monster. Although the experience will be shared a lot, the advantage is that they can cover each other, and if they cooperate well, they can even kill monsters without injury.
Perhaps it was the luck of the two of them, who only squatted for an hour before they met their first prey.
Poison-eyed toad!
This amphibious monster with black or dark green skin and a length of more than half a meter corresponds to the toad in Legends. To be precise, it's a variant of the latter, and it's a relatively basic low-level monster. The experience is good, except for the occasional squirt out some toxic mucus, there is no other ability, and there is a chance to drop the material "Toad Crisp" that can be used in medicine, whether it is the Xu Family Pharmacy or the Chen Family Grocery Store, there are unlimited purchases.
It's a kind of monster that is very suitable for two people to kill.
After silently waiting for the poison-eyed toad to crawl within twenty steps of them, Shen Xia and Fang Jin teamed up to kill them from their hiding place. Taking advantage of its unpreparedness, one after the other blocked the way.
By this time, the poison-eyed toad finally realized that the two humans had come to a bad day.
However, before it could open its mouth, Fang Jin on the front had already taken the lead in swords!
The attack rippled aura, and the wooden sword stabbed directly through its gaping mouth, inflicting unimaginable damage.
Shen Xia, who went around to the back, showed off the loot that killed Scrooge Nine Lives, the dagger, and made a sharp opening in its oozing dark green back. Although the attack aura is the same, the sharpness of the dagger is undoubtedly a notch higher than that of the wooden sword. With the blessing of a full six layers of aura, it easily pierced the only layer of defensive aura on the surface of the poison-eyed toad's body.
After a round of attacks, the poison-eyed toad was hurt enough to make it panic!
