Chapter 2 The Growth of the Brave

"It's finally here, it's not easy......"

Eight mud-covered guys looked at the gate of Rog's camp with an expression that it was really not easy.

The rain became heavier and heavier, so no one was spared from getting stained with stinking mud, or the road was too slippery and fell, perhaps because they couldn't avoid being splashed with mud by the people next to them......

Only the veteran uncle, who claimed to have survived three missions, barely maintained his demeanor, judging from the speed of his perception and nervous reaction that surpassed ordinary people when he dodged the mud, combined with his code name as a gunman, Pei Chen guessed his way of adding points.

Should it be Perception and Agility?

But that's too obvious to add a little weakness, right? If you are close to someone, it is estimated that you are not as good as the master, and the master will add physique! The spearman or something is really a weak chicken!

But I don't seem to be able to beat even the weak chickens......

"Stop!"

Just when everyone wanted to enter, the two female Rog warriors guarding the fence of the gate shot two arrows directly, and they were very accurately nailed into front of the toes of Uncle Fireball, who was running at the front, scaring him into a cold sweat.

One of Rog turned and ran back into the depths of the camp, as if to inform the chief.

"The difference between reality and game......" Regardless of Uncle Fireball's pale face, Pei Chen carefully looked at the Rogue camp in front of him and couldn't help but sigh.

Although I only played part of the game, I ...... Unlike the shabby camp of ten people in the game, this is a huge colony with complete defenses, whether it is the tall log fence or the occasional scene of people walking through the gate.

There must be a few thousand people in this place, right? Pei Chen muttered.

Just as the gunman reprimanded Uncle Fireball for being reckless, there was a noise in the gate. Pei Chen saw a nun in a purple cloak walking towards here, protected by several Rog warriors.

"Hello, adventurers from afar, I know that you are warriors who have come to challenge evil. I say Akara, High Friar of the Blind Eye, that you are very welcome to our camp, but I am afraid that we can only provide you with some humble shelter in the midst of these perilous. ”

Akara's gaze swept over the crowd, and then naturally fixed on the veteran gunman's body, and spoke.

There seems to be a calming power in her voice, Pei Chen was surprised to find that he had never heard of the language spoken by the other party, but he was able to completely understand that meaning, and there was a feeling of sinicization.

"It's okay, it's enough to have those, thank you very much." The gunman still maintained his composure - he stood for a moment before speaking. Pei Chen was even more suspicious that his eloquence when he led the novices before was a bonus obtained by memorizing lines in advance.

"Come with me, then."

※※※

A simple shack with only a fireplace and not much furniture except for the bed.

This is where the apostles were allotted, one room for each person.

However, no one protested, and it was obvious to all along the way that the resources of the Rog camp had reached a very embarrassing level, even if the residence of Sister Akara was not higher than her own.

The reason why there are still house allocations is because there are too many dead people and empty houses left. Just like Pei Chen's room, the previous owner had a hiccup two days ago and was an ordinary resident.

Pei Chen held his chin and swallowed the black bread in his mouth with a bitter face, and looked at the spatial prompt projected onto the retina:

"The first stage of the main quest is completed, and the second phase of the main quest is released!"

"Main Quest: Survive for 10 calendar days and earn 1000 Survival Points. When the task is completed, you can return to the infinite space, and the mission fails...... Out! ”

It turns out that the main quest is only divided into two stages!

Rubbing his eyes, Pei Chen looked at the one who asked for 1000 survival points, and thought about it, just now, the gunman told them that for the reserve apostles, the reward for killing monsters has increased, and it is probably about a hard-haired mouse worth about 5 survival points.

In other words, even the stupidest way is to brush 200 hard-haired mice, an average of 20 a day...... It's not challenging!

After thinking about it, he chose to open the task panel again.

"Side Mission 1: Clean up the Evil Cave and complete it to earn 1,000 Survival Points and 1 E-Rank Brilliant Gem."

"Side Mission 2: Kill a corpse and set it on fire, and then earn 500 survival points and 1 gem shard."

"Side Mission 3: Kill the Blood Raven and complete it to earn 2,000 Survival Points and 1 E-Rank Brilliant Gem."

"Side Quest 4: ......"

……

……

Looking at this side quest that was more dangerous than the other and even nonsense, the corners of Pei Chen's eyes twitched fiercely, and he decided to wash and sleep according to what the gunman said, and recuperate his spirit until tomorrow to find a way to complete the main quest.

Paralyzed, there's no hot water in this damn place......

Early the next morning.

Pei Chen got up early, because he could control his emotions well, so he didn't have insomnia.

The Rogers were changing the guard, Pei Chen reached into his trouser pocket and pinched the dozen or so gold coins, which were given by the gunner, and every newcomer had them, because gold seemed to play the role of hard currency in many worlds, so infinite space also had the exchange of this thing.

It is said that ten survival points can buy a whole kilogram of bargains.

What a great place to be......

A dozen gold coins, smooth and flat, without any patterns and patterns, say more or less, at least buy a few weapons and armor in the novice village of Rog Camp, or take care of a month's food for a month and a half.

The veteran said that his task was different from that of the newcomer, and escorting the newcomer to Rog's camp was already considered to have completed the task of guidance. He's ready in a day or two before he's going to leave for Tristram...... This made Pei Chen feel that his mission should be to save Kane......

Pei Chen didn't plan to hug his thighs, he thought about it for a while, and decided to try to do side quests 1 and 2, to be honest, these two tasks are not particularly difficult, as long as you are careful, you should still be able to do it.

The real first boss in the game should be the blood crow, not the corpse fire, and that guy is just an elite monster if he dies.

Even if it is a novice apostle, not many of the apostles are fools, maybe some people are afraid of death so they choose a cautious approach, but Pei Chen does not plan to wait for them, he must complete these two tasks before the others react.

I bought a few bottles of legendary red medicine, all of which can instantly restore 30 points of vitality and there is no so-called setting to use cooldown, but unfortunately the infinite space has specially added a hint and is not allowed to be taken out of this world......

Pei Chen then went to sell a short staff with a 50% damage bonus to the undead, an ordinary bow, and a sufficient number of arrows.

The remaining two gold coins are the next meal money.

At the gate, he was stopped by a Rog archer.

"It's too dangerous ahead, and I don't recommend you ordinary people who don't belong to the combat profession to go out." That's what the pretty warrior with the shawl hair said.

After finally asking the location of the evil cave, Pei Chen took a deep breath and then his eyes suddenly became a little indifferent, and he walked out expressionlessly.

Behind him, the female Rog shook her head.

……

……

"That...... Brother Mercury? Will we be able to come in? There are some things I want to discuss......"

Outside Pei Chen's shed, the man with glasses was pushed back and forth to make contact with Mercury (what Pei Chen casually said when he gave the codename).

"Nobody's here!"

After waiting for a while, no response was heard, and everyone looked at each other.

Where did you run so early?

"Maybe you've gone out to farm monsters?"

The high school student said uncertainly.

Now everyone is not calm, Malegobi, actually sneaked away?

They immediately rushed to Chassi, hoping to find some dusty artifact or something from the blacksmith.

……

……

It is said that the standard configuration of the protagonist is to fight wolf monsters after crossing over...... Isn't it too cheap to go hunting rats yourself?

Hiding under a dead old tree, Pei Chen looked at a hard-haired mouse not far away that was bigger than a cat.

Nima: You said it was a hedgehog, and I might believe it......

The perception range of a hard-haired mouse is about ten paces, and the distance from which the burrs are emitted is about seven or eight steps. Recalling the enemy data that Rogge kindly told him, Pei Chen decisively took out his bow and arrow.

Sou!

Barely pulling a small half of the bowstring, Pei Chen felt that he had reached the limit.

This ordinary bow even needs at least eight or nine points of strength?!

Pei Chen felt powerless to complain, some equipment armor has restrictions on use, and it needs to be used only when one or more conditions of the user are met. That's not to say you can't use it if you're not satisfied, and it's not a game. It's just that it can only exert part of its power.

Not easy to understand?

In this case, it means that you can still use a certain equipment item if your attributes do not meet the minimum configuration, but at the price, it is definitely impossible to exert 100% power. For example, this bow, the annotation of infinite space requires 8 points of strength, but Pei Chen's strength is only 4 points, so it can be used?

It's just that pulling the bow and drawing the bow are two different concepts, not to mention that Pei Chen can't even pull half of it.

The sound of the arrow breaking through the air was sharp, but it was not an egg.

Pei Chen, who had expected it, had already pulled out another arrow and put it on the bowstring, and with the addition of those shameful gauntlets, he shot it out quickly!

Pei Chen learned everything relatively quickly, probably because of his high intelligence and spirit, and under the rapid continuous shooting, he shot six arrows in less than three seconds.

It's not that it can't be faster, but the last two attacks were successful, taking away the life of the hard-haired mouse who still can't figure out the situation.

"Reserve Apostle No. 1065 kills the Hard-Haired Mouse and earns 7 Survival Points!"

"! It's getting weirder and weirder......"

Pei Chen covered his face.

According to the gunslinger, the so-called survival points are when you kill a creature, and part of the life force and soul energy of that creature is extracted by the infinite space, which can be used to strengthen and improve the creature level of the apostle, and exchange for certain enhancements to increase strength.

Casually allocated a measly 7 survival points.

Creature Level: 0 (7/100)

Well, if you kill fourteen more rats, you will be one level stronger...... It's easy to upgrade upfront.

Pei Chen rushed towards another hard-haired mouse without stopping.

……

……

"Huh?"

When Pei Chen, whose archery skills had significantly improved, nailed a stiff-haired mouse with a broken forelimb with an arrow, he found that he only got 3 survival points this time.

Could it be that infinite spaces are still priced according to their combat power?

When Pei Chen walked up to inspect the unlucky guy depressedly, when he was about to recover the arrow, he was surprised to find a broken emerald on the ground, and the prop exploded? He turned his head around and found the skeleton of an adventurer still wearing tattered leather armor.

"Well, I accept your love...... casually threw the gem into the storage space, Pei Chen stepped forward to take a look, that guy had been dead for a long time, and there were only incomplete bones left on his body.

It seems that there is no equipment left.

Shaking his head in disappointment, Pei Chen thought about it and set fire to the corpse.

Hawkers, digging a pit or something, it's so troublesome...... Let's keep it simple!
