Chapter 7: Enter the dungeon

In Ducheng City, a few hundred kilometers away from City C, the Chinese Pharmaceutical Company, which is a well-known company in the traditional Chinese medicine industry, is facing an unprecedented crisis.

The office building of Huayao Company.

A middle-aged man silently overlooked the world outside the glass window, his eyes showed a touch of vicissitudes and exhaustion from time to time, and there was a gentle and beautiful lady standing beside him, neither of them spoke, and the atmosphere in the room was a little silent.

For a long time, the middle-aged man broke the silence.

"Baolian, I'm afraid Huayao won't be able to survive this crisis." The middle-aged tone contains indescribable loneliness. After all, this is the country he has worked hard for, and it is his hard work for more than 20 years.

The noble lady slowly walked to his side, hugged him from behind, and said dreamily: "Brother Guoqiang, no matter what, I don't regret being with you." ”

The middle-aged man sighed long: "It's been more than twenty years, but I didn't expect to be discovered by them." Is this what the old man meant? Could it be that after more than 20 years, he is still as stubborn as ever? Do you have to force me to die before you are willing? His expression was even more lonely, and there was a hint of gloom in it.

"Tiger poison does not eat children."

The lady comforted, "Dad definitely won't treat you like that." ”

"However, apart from the old man, who in the Zhang family will have such great energy?" The middle-aged man laughed at himself, "Maybe he didn't treat me as a son at all, he could stop me from being with you for his own future, and now he can deal with my own son for other interests." ”

Listening to the bitter words of the middle-aged man, the noble lady was distressed, hugged her tighter, and shook her head desperately: "No, Dad is not that kind of person." ”

The middle-aged man turned around, gently hugged the noblewoman, the loneliness on his face turned into gentleness, and he stroked her delicate hair: "Over the years, I have suffered you." ”

The wrinkles on the lady's face were diluted by a sweet smile: "Brother Guoqiang, I have been very happy all these years, with you, me, Fan'er, and Xiaoling, that's enough." ”

When Fan'er was mentioned, the middle-aged man's eyes clearly showed a little disappointment: "Don't mention Zhang Fan, if it weren't for wiping his ass this time, he wouldn't have alarmed the people of the Zhang family at all, and Huayao wouldn't have faced the current crisis." "The crisis of Huayao is secondary, what really worries him is the Zhang family, if the Zhang family really makes up their minds to deal with him and sends an acquired ninefold powerhouse to deal with him, then he will definitely die.

Although disappointed, the middle-aged man did not tell his son Zhang Fan about it, he was worried that if something really happened to him, Zhang Fan could only live in self-blame and remorse for the rest of his life, which was the result he did not want to see. He hopes that his children can live a plain and happy life.

This is a deep father's love, as thick as a mountain!

…….

Demon Skeleton Bull area.

The eyes of the seven demonized skeleton bulls flashed with blood-red light, and their four hooves stepped on the ground one after another, launching attacks again and again on the young people wandering around them, and their mouths let out angry and aggrieved howls: "Moo~"

The young man calmly shuttled through it, carrying valuable gifts for three of the demonized skeleton cows: fists and kicks.

β€œβ€•90。”

β€œβ€•45。”

β€œβ€•92。”

With a heavy kick in a row of two punches, the three demonized skeleton oxen were suddenly knocked back a step.

Hit by the youth, the three demonized skeleton cows were extremely angry, and when the other four demonized skeleton cows came to the rescue, their eyes were scarlet, and one of the demonized skeleton cows used its hard skull to hit the youth, while the other two launched a skill attack.

Activate Skill: Trample!

The young man rolled on the spot, not caring about his image, even if he was covered in mud, he was still calm and calm.

β€œmiss。”

β€œmiss。”

β€œmiss。”

One hundred percent miss, announcing the complete failure of the attack of the three demonized skeleton cows, and before the remaining four demonized skeleton cows could launch an attack, the young man began a new round of attacks.

On the top of the heads of the seven demonized skeleton oxen, a string of numbers popped up from time to time: "―94,―46,―92,―90,―45......"

Finally, half a minute later, the first demonized skeleton cow was bombarded and killed, turning into a white light, leaving nothing but two copper coins out, and with the first, the second quickly followed in its footsteps.

It's a little over a minute.

Seven demonized skeleton oxen, all killed, the battle is over.

After being promoted to level 5, Zhang Fan's monster killing speed has increased again, and he can also face the siege of monsters more calmly. That's right, this young man who was hated to death by the demonized skeleton cow was Zhang Fan.

"The high output really saves a lot of time, and if I can change classes and match the skills of a warrior or knight, I should be able to shorten the time to less than half a minute." Zhang Fan picked up the copper coin and thought, "Although you can't change jobs, you must also increase your output and implement this policy." ”

In "The Brave", most knights focus on defense and life, plus professional skills - provocation, which can firmly attract the hatred of monsters, of course, warriors are not much different, but Zhang Fan can rely on surprise attacks again and again, choose the surname at the right time to shoot, attract the hatred of monsters, and the effect is even much better than the knight's provocation.

When the sun climbed overhead, Zhang Fan had already risen to level 6.

Coupled with the surname point, Zhang Fan felt more powerful.

Grade: 6

Basic caste:

Constitution: 17

Strength: 29

Dexterity: 17

Life: 170

Attack: 58

Defense: 46, additional 5

Speed: 17, additional 3

"The trigger condition for the quest has been met." Zhang Fan smiled charmingly.

Turning and walking farther beyond the demonized skeleton bull, the endless forest of the Cursed.

Walked for about ten minutes.

"System prompt: You have entered the activity area of the poisonous spider, and the difference in strength is too large, it is recommended to leave in time."

Poisonous spider, level 7 monster, life 770, skill is poison web, in the early game, when the profession of alchemist was not yet popular, it was even more threatening to players than level 9 monster tiger man, because the system does not provide any medicine for sale, including red medicine and blue medicine, only when the players of the life profession reached the official alchemist, the influence of poison was gradually weakened.

Zhang Fan ignored the system prompts and walked towards the depths of the forest according to the memories in his mind.

He was very careful not to despise the poisonous spider because of his superior skills.

After about five minutes of walking after avoiding the ugly black spiders the size of trays, a figure of an NPC came into Zhang Fan's sight, and he slowly walked forward.

The NPC's name is Sarah, dressed as a priest, holding a staff in his hand, and when he saw Zhang Fan coming, his wrinkled face showed a look of surprise, and said, "It is worthy of being a godsend, and it has only been a day for someone to break into here safely." Young warrior, the Cursed Forest has been pouring out dark power recently, and unknown changes must have taken place in it, and No. 0152 Novice Village is always threatened. I have to hold up this shield and can't be myself, are you willing to help the village and go to the depths of the Cursed Forest instead of me to remove the threat of the Cursed Forest? ”

It's more of a task than a quest, and this quest has to be done by an individual, and perhaps it's more appropriate to describe it as a task.

"Grandpa, I do." Zhang Fan is here for this. Of course, although in a hurry, politeness is still necessary.

"Young warriors, praise you for your fearless courage." Sarah's face was serious, "The Cursed Forest is full of dangers everywhere, in order to ensure that you can better complete your mission, I can lend you my beloved Amethyst Jade, which is the Jade King of the Jade Mine in the center of the Cursed Forest, and has a restraining effect on the power of darkness." ”

"System Prompt: You have obtained a special item, Amethyst Jade."

Amethyst Jade: A quest item, the Jade King of the Cursed Forest, born with a light effect, which can restrain the low-level dark power and reduce the damage caused by the low-level dark power by 50%, and the effect lasts for 5 minutes. Additional skill, Amethyst Wall.

Amethyst Wall, immune to any low-level Dark Attack, except Physical Attack, temporarily increases the player's Attack by 5 times for 1 minute. Cooldown: 24 hours.

Zhang Fan took the amethyst jade and continued to wait.

Sure enough, Sara continued, "The Cursed Forest is huge, but you're only one person and you can only choose one direction. These four passages are places that lead to different directions of the Cursed Forest, from left to right, and the danger is getting higher and higher. The route on the far right, even I don't dare to go too deep. Young warriors, choose a passage. ”

"System Prompt: Successfully triggered Dungeon - Forest of the Damned."

"Thank you." Putting the amethyst jade into the first slot of the 12-grid inventory, Zhang Fan saw that there was no other benefit to take, so he could only politely thank him, and then walked towards the penultimate passage.

As soon as he entered the passage, Zhang Fan was teleported into a dimly lit forest.

"System prompt: You have selected 'Hard Mode' and cannot pass the dungeon within 6 hours, which is considered a failure to clear the level. There is no penalty for failure. ”

The dungeon of "The Brave" is divided into the front hall, the middle hall and the back hall, and it must be completely passed to be considered a dungeon clearance.

Without skills, Zhang Fan's strength is more than twice as weak compared to players of the same level, if it weren't for the skills of his previous life, he wouldn't have come to pick up the copy at this time, although there is no punishment for failure, but the time wasted is priceless, and for Zhang Fan, he can't accept failure, even once.

"Hardmode and death mode, caste points, skill points, this is my only hope." Zhang Fan let out a long breath, and his attention shifted to the surroundings.

The front hall is littered with eroded rabbits and demonized skeleton oxen, totaling 150.

As for the eroded rabbits and demonized skeleton cows, Zhang Fan basically doesn't care about their threat anymore, let alone 150, even 1,000, and he doesn't want to kill Zhang Fan.

Killing 1 eroded rabbit in one kick, Zhang Fan began to clean up the monsters in the front hall.

Zhang Fan, who has an attack of 58 points, has the strength to easily kill the eroded rabbit in seconds.

Moreover, with the support of stable high critical hits, almost 7 attacks can kill a demonized skeleton cow, 150 hybrid monsters, he only took more than ten minutes to solve it, and the experience has also increased a lot, although it is still far from being promoted to level 7, but by the time the apse is finished, it should be about the same.
