Chapter 25 Be Prepared

As a core part of the equipment system of 'Legends', materials are the foundation. Collecting materials is also one of the easiest and most basic gameplay for players.

There are six material shops located near the East Gate, representing six categories: fur, bone armor, wood, metal, cloth, and leather. Although the materials sold were the lowest, Rin didn't have the money to buy them, and she didn't plan to buy them. At a time when most people were still blinded by the sheer array of materials, he had already run from store to store.

"Due to the increasing number of practitioners, the supply of fur materials in Jianguangyi is in short supply, and the owner of the fur shop will buy the fur you collect at a high price to meet the urgent need."

"Due to the increasing number of cultivators, there is a shortage of bone armor materials in Jian Guangyi, and the owner of the bone armor shop will purchase the bone armor you collected at a high price in order to solve the urgent need."

"Due to the increasing number of cultivators, the supply of wood planting materials in Jian Guangyi is seriously insufficient, and the proprietress of the wood planting shop is willing to buy your ...... at a high price."

……

After walking around, Rin took on the task of collecting six materials, and then found a mountain of goods in front of the city gate. Under the protection of more than a dozen heavily armed soldiers, the NPC who looked like a non-commissioned officer stood in front of the pile, turning a small gray bag of small rope in his hand, and shouted loudly: "The war ahead is tight, and the military department is short of materials, in order to boost morale and promote the prestige of our army, the military department has decided to raise military funds in various towns, hoping that talented and virtuous people with lofty ideals will help to solve the urgent need......"

Raise?

Isn't that just a free giveaway? Rin didn't think twice and walked straight over.

"This brother is willing to help? Good! Pei ......"

chirped and crooked for a long time, and the non-commissioned officer handed over the small bag in his hand, and finally got to the point: "It's rare that the little brother has a heart, Pei will make an exception once and fulfill you." However, this is not child's play, although you have weapons to defend yourself, but this is a coarse cloth and coarse cloth...... In this way, in order to facilitate your collection of materials, this 'Sumeru mustard' will be temporarily given to you for use, there are some essential things for going out, which will be of some benefit to you, I hope you can make good use of it. ”

Here's the good stuff.

Rin nodded, and couldn't help but feel a little excited when she reached out to take it. This bag called 'Sumeru mustard' is nothing, it's just a package from a traditional game. Follow the system prompts to open Sumeru mustard, and inside is a small warehouse, with a large wooden shelf, a total of nine floors, each floor is divided into nine grids, a total of eighty-one positions. In the first few compartments, there are already some things, and there are several books in them—in addition to the small book of the introduction to the double knife that I got from the weapon before, there are also three basic manuals for the three life skills of anatomy, herbology, and goldsmithy. In addition to this, there were several vials containing a reddish liquid and a roll of white bandages, as well as ...... A piece of bread the size of a face.

"The war at the front is stalemate, and the military department has raised military funds in various places, hoping that people with lofty ideals from all sides will generously contribute money to help the military department solve the urgent needs. Tip: Collect some ingredients, herbs, and minerals for the military department. ”

Now, everything is ready.

After closing the Sumeru mustard, Rin re-sorted the information in his brain, and after confirming that there were no omissions, he passed under the gate seven or eight yards high and walked out of Jian Guangyi.

According to the map of Kwang-eup, the outer mountains of Eup-eup are to the north of Kyung-eup, the river is to the south, there is a forest due east, and the mountains are stretching to the west. At present, except for the north and south, the mountains in the west have not been opened, and the forests in the east have only partially opened...... Partly because the level of monsters in it is too high, and the current players can't get by.

If you go directly to the outer mountains in the north, you can quickly complete the time-limited mission, but in this way, because the distribution of monsters is different, the material collection task will have to be scattered to do, so it seems too troublesome to run. If you first make a big circle from the south side below, go around the mountains outside the eup in the north from the forest, and finally return to Jianguang-eup, the route is just a circle.

It's a good choice, but Rin has her own ideas.

The material collection tasks are basically one-time, and the tasks of the Outer Mountains are limited-time tasks, and there must be follow-ups. In the novice stage, in addition to adapting to the game, it should be more about fighting monsters and practicing hands, that is, the follow-up task of Yi Waishan should also be fighting monsters. In this way, if you follow the first method and go to the river stream first, it is possible to make an extra turn.

Since the start of the service, it has been half an hour, and the players who can come out of the city, except for a small number of players who follow the trend, most of them are old birds who want to grab the advantage of the early stage of the game, and there must be masters among them. Rin noticed that there weren't many people who went out of the city before him, but there were also hundreds of people in their eighties, and some of them went straight down to the south.

That's really the best route to the Sweep mission - just for the current mission.

Rin hesitated at the gates. There is no teleportation array, which means that once the prediction is wrong, even if the distance from Jianguangyi to Yiwaishan is deducted, and the extra distance from Yiwaishan to Hejian Zhou is deducted, at least 1 hour will be wasted! This is definitely a huge efficiency gap in the early game.

Being smart often mistakes people. Rin thought about it for a moment, but ran with most of them towards the outer mountains of the city.

Coming out of the stream and crossing the soldier's patrol line, there was a radius of several miles of wild land, with low grass and shrubs as far as the eye could see, alternating between light and dark, as if hiding countless dangers.

If you open the first perspective, and you are alone and timid, it is really a little scary.

"Wow-"

Rin searched as he walked, and suddenly heard a scream in front of him, and then a person rushed out from behind the grass mang, and rushed over quickly. Stopped, Rin had just lifted two long wooden knives, and a gray-black vicious dog sprang out from behind the man, baring its teeth and pounced. He looked at it intently, and he was sure in his heart. White light, can be killed!

The monsters in the 'legend' will not run around with their names and levels on their heads, and players can only rely on the system's 'Demon Record' to obtain monster information, but the accuracy of the information in the 'Demon Record' depends on the degree of intersection between the player and the monster. For example, if you've only seen this kind of monster, you'll only have a picture and a name in the Demon Directory, and if you fight it, you'll get further data such as level, characteristics, and so on. Kill and dissect, and there are more instructions for dropping materials and so on...... And so on until all the information is collected. This is a bit like a pet illustrated book in a certain game, and later players can also carry out the data exchange of 'Demon Record', which is a kind of collection gameplay.

Because when he first entered the game, everyone's demon records were basically blank, and Rin didn't have any information about this mad dog, the only thing he could be sure of was that its danger was 'white'. This is a game-specific setting. Different monsters have different levels of danger for different players, and the way to identify them is to look at the color.

Normally, there will be a faint light on the monster's body, which is divided into seven layers: gray, white, cyan, yellow, red, purple, and black. Gray represents that there is no threat to the player; white, which represents within the scope of ability; Cyan, more dangerous, need to be careful; Yellow, very dangerous, do what you can; Red, only suitable for group fighting; Purple, extremely dangerous, if it is not necessary, it is important to save your life; The last black, the official suggestion is that everyone's time is so precious, it is better to wait for death quickly.

Although the guy who ran over obviously wanted to cause trouble, Rin wanted to try his hand and took it unceremoniously. Probably sensing the murderous aura, the black dog also gave up the target of the pursuit, and instead shifted the target of the attack to Rin, opening a large mouth covered with sticky saliva and biting. Although it wasn't as terrifying as Resident Evil and the likes of the game, it still caused Rin to pause for a moment compared to the more realistic feeling, and then, his eyes lit up, and the entire headset interface flashed with a reddish glow.

Damn-

Secretly cursed, Rin swung his knife and slashed. 'Click' twice, the whole character turned a turn, and the two knives fell one after another. The coherent and beautiful movements made Rin stunned.

"I've mastered the introductory skills of the Double Knife Technique."

……

With the system's prompt, the vicious dog collapsed in a pool of blood. Although it is blood, out of humanity and humanistic care, the game company has dealt with the bloody picture, and it is not disgusting...... It's just that Rin still can't react a little, so fast? In addition to the first combo, a few slashes to the back, and it will only take more than ten seconds before and after.

The player who brought the dog over just now stood in the distance, a little dumbfounded.

"Fun ......"

Rin came back to his senses and felt fresh, so he didn't forget to lean over and dissect the corpse. After all, it was a game, and after a few seconds, the whole corpse disappeared like a trick.

"Get Fresh Meat*3"

"Obtain Shredded Skin*2"

"I have mastered the art of dissection."

……

That's how it turned out.

It's been a long time since Rin has this kind of novelty that he had when he was young when he was exposed to games, and before he knew it, he felt funny and continued to run towards the mountain outside the city.

A bit of a lot of blood......

Open the attribute interface, and Rin sums up the experience of the first battle while rushing. 'Legend' has no red and blue settings, only the opposite essence, qi, and gods. The 'essence' is commonly known as red, the 'qi' is blue, and the 'god' is similar to the state value. 'Jing' and 'Qi' are easy to understand, but 'God' has a greater role. This is a bit like the fatigue value setting in some games, but the difference is that the fatigue value of other games only limits the player's playing time, and the 'god' also affects the overall state of the character. The information on the official website clearly states that the state of 'God' directly affects the state of the character. The simple and crude analogy is that if the character's attack is 100, then when the value of 'God' is 100%, the attack will be 100, but when the value of 'God' drops to 80%, then the actual effect of the attack will be reduced to 80 points.

At present, the only items that can replenish essence, qi, and spirit in the game are medicine and food, which is the use of medicinal materials and ingredients obtained by gathering and dissection. However, the status value does not mean that you eat something and immediately replenish it, whether it is 'essence', 'qi' or 'spirit', it can only recover slowly, and the effect of medicine and food only speeds up the recovery. In particular, 'God', because it has the effect of preventing addiction, so the amount of recovery in a day is limited, and it cannot be replenished indefinitely.

The three immortal vines, which symbolize essence, qi, and gods, are intertwined, and the value of the red one shows 98%, the blue one shows 100%, and the green one shows 99%. This means that in the battle just now, the attrition of essence and spirit is 2% and 1% respectively. Just a monster! If you count according to this data, you will have to stop fighting twenty or thirty monsters.

Rin was a little tangled. Even if you count the amount of recovery, the cultivation time of a day is very limited.

Gotta be budget-conscious.
