Chapter 3 Taoyuan Canyon
(The new book has uploaded three chapters.,I'm also asking readers for some recommendations or something.,Thank you first.。 )
When Yue Tian opened his eyes, he had already come to a grand canyon with beautiful mountains and rivers.
It is surrounded by mountains on three sides, and a waterfall cascades down from the top of the mountain to the east, and below the waterfall is a deep pool, from which a clear river flows through the entire canyon.
There is a village in the middle of the canyon, surrounded by green trees, birds singing and flowers, and houses with blue tiles and white walls are lined up one after another. The small river meanders through the village, nourishing the rice paddies that surround it. At the foot of the hill to the south of the village is a recruit camp, surrounded by a wooden fence and two tall guard towers at the entrance, around which a group of soldiers in armor patrol.
This is one of the birthplaces of the players of the Qin Ding Empire's order camp - Taoyuan Canyon.
Looking at this familiar scenery, Yue Tian secretly praised himself for his good luck.
You must know that the player's birthplace is randomly arranged by the system among thousands of novice villages, and Yue Tian was actually arranged in the novice village where he was born in his previous life, which is really his own providence.
At this time, on the grass at the foot of the mountain on the north side of the canyon where Yue Tian was located, the white light emitted by the players when they entered the game was already coming and going, and in less than 1 minute, Yue Tian was already standing next to the players.
Players dressed in burlap novice outfits were stunned by the sight of the sight.
"Damn! Is this still a game? It's too real, it's just no different from the real world! A tall warrior player exclaimed, grabbing his head.
"Wow! It's so beautiful! It is more beautiful than the national scenic spot in the real world! "An MM player covers his mouth with little stars in his eyes.
Looking at the way the players reveled in the beautiful scenery in front of him, Yue Tian couldn't help but smile and shook his head.
I wonder if anyone else laughs when they see the same real monsters, especially those undead spirits like rotting zombies?
Suddenly, someone in the crowd shouted.
"Go to the village to pick up the task and kill the monsters! It's too late, but it's not to blame! ”
Hearing this, the players immediately boiled, and all the players ran towards the village in the middle of the canyon as if they had been beaten with chicken blood. After all, everyone is here to play games, the scenery, when you have time to enjoy it.
But all players who have played online games know that when they first entered the game, everyone was crowded in the novice village, and the tasks received by NPCs were the same, either to drive voles or to kill chickens, ducklings, and slimes, the refresh speed of these small wild monsters is far from catching up with the speed of many players, and the players who preempted the first can quickly complete the task, improve the level, and then leave the novice village first to go to other cities to continue to upgrade and play equipment.
Players who didn't grab the monster can only wait for the system to refresh the monster, and the upgrade time will be delayed a lot. This came and went, and the gap between the players opened up at the first time.
Although the players around Yue Tian rushed towards Taoyuan Village like a tide, his old man paced in square steps, following behind the large army unhurriedly, without the slightest hint of hurrying.
Each novice village is assigned at least 10,000 players or so, no matter how you grab it, the speed of wild monster refresh is definitely not able to keep up with the speed of players killing monsters, if you want to reach level 10 in advance and leave the novice village, you must find some shortcuts.
For example, completing hidden missions with rich rewards is a good shortcut.
"I wonder if the old man fishing is still in the old place?" Yue Tian, who was thrown away by the large army of players, thought leisurely while walking.
When most of the players rushed into Taoyuan Village to grab the task, Yue Tian had already gone up the river along the small river at the entrance of the village.
When he came to the river, about a mile from the entrance of the village, an old man in a coat fishing by the river came into his sight.
"Sure enough, it's still here!" The corners of Yue Tian's mouth lifted and he quickened his pace.
When he walked not far behind the old man fishing, Yue Tian stopped.
He didn't go directly to the old man and talk to him, but stood more than ten meters behind the old man and watched quietly.
The old man didn't seem to know that there was another person behind him, and he was still staring intently at his fish drift.
After 5 minutes, I saw the old man's fish drift move slightly, and the old man's face suddenly showed an excited expression, and he was busy lifting the rod and reeling the line.
It's a pity that the old man was too anxious, and before the fish could bite the bait, he lifted the rod, and naturally nothing was caught.
Looking at the empty hook, the old angler was not discouraged, he hung the new bait on the hook unhurriedly, and opened his mouth without looking back.
"Yes, young man, there are not many young people like you who know how to be polite these days."
Yue Tian waited for a long time, just waiting for the old man's words. It seems that his first hidden mission has a score.
To know Lu Dao, this fishing old man is a hidden task NPC in Taoyuan Village, in the previous life, Yue Tian also saw other people's posts in the forum to know the NPC, at that time, many players did not notice this fishing old man, but they all habitually went to talk to him as soon as they came up, and as a result, without exception, all the players who went up to talk were driven away by this old man on the grounds of affecting his fishing. It wasn't until a keen fishing player watched the old man fishing here that he accidentally discovered this hidden mission.
Yue Tian walked quickly to the old man's side and said politely:
"You have won the prize, in fact, I also like fishing, as soon as I saw that you are always fishing here, I couldn't help but stop and look, I didn't expect to scare your fish away, I hope you don't be surprised."
Seeing that Yue Tian was so polite, the old angler smiled slightly, only to see him put the fishing rod down, turned around and waved his hand to Yue Tian and said:
"No, no, no, I don't blame you for not catching a fish just now, in fact, the bait I brought today is really not good, the fish don't like to eat, if I can use the fresh earthworms in the grassland on the top of Nanshan Mountain as bait, then I will definitely be able to return with a full load." Alas...... It's a pity that I'm too old to dig earthworms that far. ”
Hearing this, everyone knew that there was a drama in the mission, and Yue Tian hurriedly went up the pole.
"It's okay, as long as you need it, I can help you with this, I don't know how many Nanshan earthworms you need?"
The old angler was not hypocritical, and directly stretched out a slap.
"50 of them! As long as there are 50 Nanshan earthworms, I will definitely be able to catch a large basket full of plump golden carp today! Young man, if you can get me enough bait, I'll repay you. ”
At this time, the system prompts: Do you accept the commission of the old angler?
Of course you accept! Yue Tian nodded without hesitation.
Taking the bait box handed over by the old angler, Yue Tian went straight to the grassland on the top of Nanshan Mountain.
It was indeed a bit far from Taoyuan Village, and Yue Tian ran for fifteen minutes to reach the top of Nanshan Mountain. Thinking about the generous task rewards, Yue Tianpox's time is definitely worth it.
At the top of Nanshan Mountain, there is an endless alpine meadow, which is a level 1 to 2 wild monster area, dominated by wild goats, hares, and foxes, but most of them are neutral wild monsters with yellow names, except for the occasional level 3 elite fox or two that will actively attack the player, which is relatively safe.
When he arrived at the place, Yue Tian immediately took out the new Ding dagger issued by the system to the thief player, and started his own earthworm digging operation in full swing.
It took Yue Tian nearly 1 hour to dig 50 earthworms. But Yue Tian didn't mean to stop, he continued to dig earthworms.
It wasn't until there were a full 100 Nanshan earthworms in the bait box in his arms that Yue Tiancai stood up and stretched.
At this time, Yue Tian opened the player level list of the Novice Village of Taoyuan Canyon and looked at it, there were already thousands of players who had reached level 1, and more than a dozen players had already reached level 2.
In the game of reincarnation, whether in the early or late stage, it is very slow and laborious for players to level up, and these players who have reached level 2 should be either professional players or game veterans. However, Yue Tian, who was still level 0, was not in a hurry, he had already designed a reasonable and effective upgrade route for himself in his heart.
Trotting back to the old man fishing, Yue Tian handed the bait box in his arms to the old man who had been waiting for a long time.
"Oops! There are so many Nanshan earthworms! It seems that today, the old man, I don't think it's going to be a good harvest, haluha! Thank you so much, young man, and please accept my modest reward! The old man's eyes narrowed into a slit when he opened the bait box.
System Prompt: The old angler's commission is completed, and the experience value is rewarded with 150 points and 3 copper coins.
I saw a flash of golden light on Yue Tian's body, and he was upgraded.
Yue Tian, who had been promoted to level 1, was not in a hurry to see his character attributes, but waited with a smile.
Really! When the old angler found that there were obviously more than 50 earthworms in the bait box, he cast a confused eye on Yue Tian.
"Huh? Young man, I only asked you to find me 50 Nanshan earthworms, why are there 50 more here? ”
"Grandpa, I see that you are old and your legs are inconvenient, so I dug up 50 more, and the extra 50 earthworms are considered to be given to you."
"This ......" The old angler was moved by Yue Tian's actions, and he grabbed Yue Tian's hand, his gratitude overflowing.
"What a sensible kid you're in! I am so touched old man, I must reward you for your act of respecting the old and loving the young! ”
The system prompts again: due to your excellent completion of the hidden quest of "Fishing Old Man's Entrustment", you will be rewarded with 150 experience points, 5 copper coins, and Taoyuan Village reputation +5, which is unique and cannot be refreshed after completion.
Yue Tian's two hours were not in vain, the golden light of the upgrade flashed again, and his experience value easily reached 80% of level 2, and he was now level 3. You must know that most of the players who are struggling to kill monsters and do ordinary tasks are still level 1. And this money-making task disappears after he completes it, and other players can't take it on.
Saying goodbye to the old fisherman, Yue Tian, who was carrying 8 large copper plates, walked towards Taoyuan Village in a happy mood.
Since the game currency in the reincarnation game can be exchanged with the real currency of various countries half a year after the start of the service, it is very difficult to earn game currency in the game. And when the novice player is born, he doesn't even have a copper coin on his body, and the normal task reward is only experience points, as for the monster drop, it must be a monster of level 5 and above to have a certain chance of dropping coins.
Now the vast majority of players are still competing with level 0-3 voles, hares and pheasants, and they can't play money at all. So now Yue Tian, who is worth 8 copper coins, can definitely be regarded as a "big money".
Entering Taoyuan Village, Yue Tian, who had hidden his name, came to the blacksmith shop on the side of the street.
"Boss, I want to see what you're selling." Yue Tian said to the boss who was striking iron shirtless.
"Young adventurer, you are in the right place, I have the best weapon here in the entire Taoyuan Village! Please choose it casually. The blacksmith boss stopped his work and grinned at Yue Tian.
A cargo panel appeared in front of Yue Tian's eyes.
Yue Tian's eyes swept and his gaze stayed on one item.
Inferior Dagger (no level), melee attack +3-5, costs 3 copper coins.
That's it.
In the early stage, due to the lack of money, the novice weapons and equipment distributed by the system usually have to be used for a long time, until they have the strength to farm level 4-5 cave savages, and they will play some money to change their equipment. But Yue Tian is different, with the reward of the hidden mission, he can now multiply his attack power.
Then the blacksmith spoke again.
"As the first adventurer to visit my blacksmith shop, you will receive a free pair of low-quality leather boots from our shop." After saying that, Yue Tian had an extra pair of inferior boots with a movement speed of +1 in his backpack.
He was actually the first customer of the blacksmith shop in Taoyuan Village, and he also got a pair of low-quality leather boots that could only be bought in a light-armored shop for free, Yue Tian really didn't expect it.
This saved 2 copper coins for boots, and it seems that you can buy an inferior leather armor to wear in advance.
With brisk steps, Yue Tian walked out of the blacksmith shop and came to the light armor shop.
Entering the door of the shop, Yue Tian didn't say a word, the four eldest sons slapped on the counter, and a low-quality leather armor with defense +4 started.
However, Yue Tian didn't put on the leather armor immediately, and also put it in the backpack first.
Nowadays, almost all players are still wearing the same burlap novice outfit, and if he just walks around in leather armor, it will be too conspicuous. After all, equipment can only hide special effects such as light, and appearance cannot be hidden. The difference between leather armor and cloth clothes is still very big, and others are not blind.
Keep a low profile when you don't have to. Yue Tian didn't come to show off in the game, he played the game to accumulate his strength to take revenge, and it was not a good thing to expose his strength in front of the players, especially the enemies, too early.
It wasn't until Yue Tian left Taoyuan Village and came to a remote woods that he put on his leather armor and leather boots from his backpack, and the dagger was also properly equipped.
Who knows that people are not as good as heaven, just when Yue Tian changed into new equipment, he still ran into a few players who returned from teaming up to farm monsters.
"Holy! This cow X! It's all in leather armor! ”
"That's an inferior leather armor that can only be bought for 4 copper coins, we are all poor like rats in an empty house, where did he get the money?"
"Brother, what's your name? Add a friend. Brother is messing with you......"
……
In the face of the enthusiastic onlookers of these players, Yue Tian, who had a drop of cold sweat on his forehead, was not even busy looking at his attributes after changing his clothes, so he hurriedly sneaked and fled.
Evading the curious players, Yue Tian sneaked all the way to the foot of the southwest edge of the canyon.
There is a natural cave here, which is the lair of cave savages.
Yue Tian remembered that in his previous life, a player had found a black iron-level treasure chest in this cave, and there was also a level 5 elite monster in it-Cave Savage King, this Savage King is one of the few elite monsters in Taoyuan Canyon, after killing it, it will drop a black iron-level equipment, and that black-iron-level treasure chest will open a random skill book, it is said that the treasure chest also has a very small chance of opening a special item with a high rarity.
Yue Tian went to the Savage King and the treasure chest.
As far as the current level of players is concerned, the level 5 elite monster is not a common grinding disc in the village, and whoever wants to push it can push it.
At present, with Yue Tian's level and defense, not to mention an elite monster, even an ordinary cave savage of level 4 can easily and happily send him back to the novice village resurrection point.
However, since Yue Tian dared to come, he naturally had his confidence.
At level 2, you can get a piece of black iron equipment and a random skill book, which is something that current players can't even dream of. However, for Yue Tian, who was reborn with the experience of his previous life, it shouldn't be a difficult thing.
With the idea of being determined to win, Yue Tian came to the entrance of the cave savage's lair.
Looking at the densely packed level 5 cave savages roaming around at the entrance of the lair, Yue Tian frowned.
It seems that it is not easy to enter the wild man's lair safely.
But since you're here, you can't go back empty-handed. Giving up halfway is not Yue Tian's style of doing things.
Yue Tian sneaked around and touched a small dirt bag about 200 meters away from the entrance of the nest, where he could have an unobstructed view of the situation at the entrance of the nest.
Yue Tian counted, there were about 30 level 4 ordinary cave wildlings wandering near the entrance of the lair, and the distance between them was generally about 15-20 meters, and there were also some level 5 cave wildling leaders, leading three or five ordinary cave wildlings to hang out.
After quietly observing for about 15 minutes, Yue Tian had a clear idea of the route and time of these cave savages. A relatively safe route of infiltration slowly formed in his mind.
As long as he keeps a distance of more than 6 meters from ordinary cave savages and doesn't make too much noise when sneaking, Yue Tian will not be exposed to his stealth skills by these cave savages. And those cave savage leaders who led his subordinates, they were the masters that Yue Tian couldn't provoke, once they were discovered, they would definitely be seconded, and he would naturally get as far away as possible.
Just do it, Yue Tian took a deep breath and entered a stealth state.
In order not to alarm the cave savages at the entrance of the lair, Yue Tian walked very slowly, and he was careful with every step, for fear of stepping on something like a dead tree branch and making a noise.
One, two, three...... Yue Tian passed safely through one cave after another, and he was getting closer and closer to the entrance of the lair. When Yue Tian sneaked to a place less than 20 meters away from the entrance of the nest, his forehead was already covered with fine beads of sweat.
It's finally almost there!
Just when Yue Tian was about to breathe a sigh of relief, something happened that made him cry and laugh.
The leader of a cave savage about 10 meters behind him, after devouring the thigh of an unknown animal in his hand, casually threw the thigh bone that was more than two feet long, only to see that the leg bone seemed to have eyes, and the ghost almost smashed it on the defenseless Yue Tian.
I saw a -1 damage floating on Yue Tian's head, and his stealth effect disappeared instantly. Yue Tian, who revealed his figure, was suddenly exposed under the noses of a group of cave savages.
Yes, let's go back to the village for free.
Looking at the dozens of cave savages waving big wooden sticks and screaming towards him, Yue Tian didn't resist uselessly, he closed his eyes and waited to be killed.
With a flash of white light, Yue Tian's void soul had already appeared at the resurrection point at the entrance of Taoyuan Village.
System: Will it be revived immediately?
Yue Tian smiled bitterly and nodded. He didn't expect that his virgin death in reincarnation was actually a bloody case caused by a bone.
However, the system god still has a lot of love for new players, and players below level 10 will not lose experience and items if they are killed by wild monsters or killed by players, but the punishment for the death of players after changing classes at level 10 is heavy.
If you are killed by a monster, your level will drop by one level, and you will not drop items. Killed by a player from your faction in the wild, dropping one level and dropping an piece of equipment. Killed by a player from the opposing faction drops one level and drops two pieces of equipment at the same time. If the red name is killed by another player, the level will drop by 1-10 according to the level of the red name, and the equipment will drop two pieces. The red name status must be the first to attack and kill the players of this faction to be generated, and self-defense after being attacked will not be red. Killing a player from the opposing faction will not only not be red, but will also receive corresponding merit points according to the opponent's level.
After the resurrection, Yue Tian wasted no time and ran to the lair of the cave savages again.
The scene just now was a complete coincidence, and Yue Tian could only be blamed for his bad luck. This time, Yue Tian believed that as long as he was more careful and didn't get hit by UFOs with bones or something, it should be no problem to enter the lair of the cave savages.
After a while, Yue Tian came to the entrance of the savage's lair again.
By this time, the cave savages at the entrance had regained their composure, and they each returned to their respective positions and continued to wander.
With the lesson of the last failure, Yue Tian's infiltration this time was quite smooth. A few minutes later, he had entered the lair of the cave savages.
As soon as Yue Tian entered this dark and damp cave, he was covered by a foul smell that came to his face. When he saw the root cause of the stench, Yue Tian, who had seen the world, couldn't help but feel sick to his stomach.
I saw a large pile of broken human corpses piled up in a corner not far from the entrance of the cave, and it seemed that these corpses had been sitting for a long time, some of the corpses had begun to decompose, and countless flies were buzzing around the corpse pile. Several cave savages were sitting beside the pile of corpses, one carrying a piece of corpse and gnawing with relish.
Depend on! This bloody scene is too realistic, isn't it? If a timid female player comes in, she won't be scared to faint? It's no wonder that Samsara has stipulated that players must be at least 18 years old for this game, and they have also installed a screen filtering system in the player settings. It seems that this screen filtering system is specially designed for players who are less daring.
However, Yue Tian would not use this filtration system, did he still see few bloody scenes in his previous life? It was just a moment of nausea.
Bypassing these disgusting things, Yue Tian followed the relatively wide cave path towards the depths of the cave. Along the way, Yue Tian only encountered a few cave savages patrolling, and he easily avoided them.
A few minutes later, Yue Tian finally reached the deepest part of the cave.
This is a very large grotto, the top of the grotto is full of large and small stalactites, and small water droplets fall to the ground along these stone stalactites, and gather into small puddles on the ground. In the center of the grotto is a tall square stone platform, and in the middle of the stone platform stands a cave savage covered with thick black hair.
This guy was a meter taller than the cave savage leaders who were about 2 meters tall at the entrance of the lair, and at the same time, it was also much stronger than the cave savage leaders, and its muscular black thick arms were thicker than Yue Tian's waist.
On the head of this big guy is a row of big red letters - Cave Savage King (Elite).
And in a hidden corner behind the cave savage king, a black chest was quietly placed.
Yue Tian, who was originally going to spend a lot of effort looking for the treasure chest, couldn't help but hehe.
It's easy to do now.,Push the boss and open the treasure chest again.,Let's give it a pot!
Yue Tian raised his head and looked around the grotto, except for the cave savage king, there were no other wild monsters here, and the cave savages outside the grotto were more than 20 meters away from the entrance of the grotto, as long as they did not leave the grotto, they would not be attacked on their backs.
Finding out the inferior dagger equipment, Yue Tian silently calculated in his heart.
I'm now level 2, my attack speed is about once every 2 seconds, and the attack damage is 5-9 points when equipped with an inferior dagger, while the Cave Savage King's HP regeneration per second is 2 points, and the defense is 3 points, that is, in addition to the Savage King's blood regeneration and defense, I can only cause 0-4 damage to it every time I attack. Of course, this is only the damage value of normal attacks, and does not include the bonus damage of critical hits and skill attacks.
Yue Tian looked at the Savage King's HP, good guy, it's a full 2,000 points! Even if you reach the maximum attack value every time you attack a normal attack, you have to attack 500 times. In other words, the theoretical time to overthrow this elite monster is 1000 seconds. However, counting bonus damage such as critical hits, the actual time spent killing monsters should be less than this theoretical time.
Of course, the premise is that you don't get killed by the Savage King in one hit in the process of launching 500 attacks in a row. Otherwise, the previous arithmetic problem is done.
Dodging the attacks of level 5 elite monsters, this is nothing for Yue Tian, who used to brush copies alone in his previous life! Of course, Yue Tian would not underestimate the enemy because of this, after all, he was only two levels now.
Relaxing his body, Yue Tian, who had adjusted his state, held his breath and concentrated, sneaked around, and quietly touched towards the cave savage king more than 20 meters away......
