Chapter 8: The Singles Maker
After winning the first battle, Zhou Wei was overjoyed, and at the same time understood that the drops here were not picked up casually and easily like in ordinary games, but required a very serious search, in this way, if you are careless, you are likely to suffer a lot of losses.
In the next week, he was even more serious, and even he had an idea, choosing to consume his spiritual power to keep searching, anyway, he has a lot of spiritual power now, which is enough to consume.
Not to mention, it's really, really good.
In the end, after consuming a full 15 points of spiritual power, Zhou Wei successfully found 3 more pieces of equipment on the corpse, but unfortunately all of them were of white quality.
"Butcher's Belt, Defense +1, Durability 13/20."
"Butcher's Pants, Defense +1, Durability 15/20."
"Butcher's Boots, Strength +1, Durability 12/20."
From the garbage attributes of these four pieces of white equipment, it is not difficult to see how precious that soul equipment is the Chastity Dagger, and this is the equipment that Zhou Wei obtained after killing 20 meat butchers.
It can be seen from this that the drop rate of equipment in this game level is very harsh, of course, it is also possible that Zhou Wei killed these human butchers when they were at their weakest, so as a punishment, the dropped items are rubbish.
In addition to these pieces of equipment, Zhou Wei also touched five very strange money bags.
"The blood-stained money bag, indicating that this is some gold and silver found by the human butcher from the cut corpse, this item cannot be circulated, but it can be sold to pawnshops in the City of Despair in exchange for gold or silver or copper despair that can only be circulated in the City of Despair, note, 1 gold coin of despair is equal to 100 silver coins of despair, and 1 silver coin of despair is equal to 100 copper coins of despair."
……
"City of Despair?"
Zhou Wei studied this information playfully, he didn't care how much value the five blood-stained money bags could be exchanged for, what he cared about was some small clues revealed in this information.
It was not the first time he had heard the word "City of Despair", in fact, a day ago, the entire City of X was swallowed by the abyss, and that guy who was too big a wolf said the words "City of Despair" loudly and unabashedly.
Well, from the nature of it, falling into the city of X, which is tens of thousands of meters deep, can indeed be regarded as a city of despair.
And now, there are a few words in this message that are deeply related to the city of despair, that is, pawnshop and despair coins, the former shows that this pawnshop is the cannon fodder of these NPCs that can go to consume, and this pawnshop must be in the city of despair, and this city of despair may be the city of X that fell into the abyss.
The latter shows that this city of despair like hell is not only as simple as City X, since there is an independent and systematic currency issuance system, it shows that although this city of despair is extremely terrifying, it still follows a very strict and very standard system of rules.
After thinking about it for a few seconds, Zhou Wei put this question aside for the time being, because what matters now is that he has to survive this level, and no matter how desperate that city of despair is, at least it is the only place where he can live in peace at the moment.
Next, Zhou Wei didn't care about the foul-smelling athlete's foot and dirty pants, and directly changed them all, as a result, his strength attribute increased by 1 point, reaching 10 points, and his defense increased by 2 points, reaching 9 points, this attribute is already very good, very good, and it seems that he is about to catch up with that Zhao Dashan, you know, that Zhao Dashan is the guy with the highest average attribute in the whole 10,000 people.
But at this time, Zhou Wei found two more pieces of information in his mind, that is-"Because of your unremitting efforts, you have comprehended the basic skill - plundering LV1 level, and the effect of this basic skill is to increase your chance of finding loot by 1%. ”
……
"Because of your unremitting efforts, you have comprehended the basic skill - insight LV1 level, the effect of this basic skill is to increase your chance of success in observing the target attributes, and reduce the probability of being detected by the target by 1%, which shows that this basic skill has a very critical relationship with the amount of mental power, under normal circumstances, the higher the mental power, or the greater the gap between the mental power of each other, the easier it is to use the insight skill successfully, and vice versa, in addition, If the mental power of the person casting the insight skill is much lower than the total mental power of the person being examined, then there will be an extremely high chance of being counterattacked, and the greater the difference in values, the stronger the counterattack effect will be. ”
……
The two basic skills mentioned in the information are very common, but it is precisely because of the appearance of these two pieces of information that Zhou Wei suddenly realized one thing, that is, in this damn game, these so-called game NPCs, maybe most likely, cannot be upgraded by accumulating experience, because the good thing of gaining experience to upgrade is usually given to gamers, and they are the real enjoyers in the game! It's the rules of the game that have to be pleased. It's like a son of God, you don't have to work too hard, you can have a good reward!
But Zhou is different from these NPCs, are they gamers?
NO!
Therefore, the result is very obvious, these game NPCs must not be able to level up by accumulating experience, and the experience they gain from killing enemies must have been plundered by the gamer.
And the only thing they can keep is the basic attributes, free attribute points, and this basic skill that has been comprehended through continuous training!
For example, his basic plunder, basic insight, Zhao Dashan's basic fighting, basic spearmanship or something.
It must be so!
But thinking of this, Zhou Wei couldn't help but think of another point, since, in this kind of bloody game level, all the experience points must be obtained by the gamer, then, if, if there is such a possibility, you can break the rules of the game and let a part of the experience points fall on NPCs like yourself, then, what will happen at that time?
Zhou Wei was very curious, and this idea was like a flame burning violently in his heart!
Yes, he didn't think that this idea was a fantasy, because, according to the fact that he was still in Wancheng, it was enough to prove that the terrible, cruel, not the slightest human rule of the game was not perfect, and it was not perfect, but there were some hidden loopholes, as long as he could find these loopholes, then, he could get unexpected benefits, and even, very likely, he could get the kind of experience points that only gamers can get!
"Whew!"
Taking a deep breath, Zhou Wei quickly let his burning thought cool down, because now was not the time to think about these things, he was not strong enough, and he didn't have enough clues!
But, but!
One day, he will take complete control of his freedom, control his power, and challenge the gamers, the sons of God who are high up and stupid!
Zhou Wei believes that based on the extremely stupid performance of those six gamers today, it is really possible that they are gamers in the real world, or on the earth in a certain plane, but they should have been unintentionally pulled into this bloody game at the cost of millions or tens of millions of lives.
So, in that case, how can they be on top all the time?
There is no love for no reason in this world, and there is no hate for no reason, maybe those gamers don't know about the existence of these game NPCs themselves, but so what?
It's a matter of life and death, and there has never been so much truth to talk about!
So, theoretically, if you can master it, or trigger a special condition, can you subvert these sons of God?
Clenching his fists tightly, Zhou Wei suddenly waved it fiercely at the dark sky, his eyes deep and firm!
Then, he began to quickly rummage through the corpse and put the extra pair of whiteboard boots into it, although this thing only added a little power, but there is no doubt that among all the current Yellow Turban Army cannon fodder NPCs, it is extremely rare and precious, whether it is used for personal use or kept and sold, there is no problem.
And then, Zhou Wei began to think about where he should go? What to do?
There is no doubt that before dawn, the exploitative elite butcher will come here to greet all his men and start the day's work, but at that time, he will be surprised to find that all his men have been killed, so he will shout, attracting the search and high alert of the Han army in Wancheng.
But at that time, was he able to find a place to hide in Wancheng?
To be honest, Zhou Wei is extremely unoptimistic about this, this is not to say that there is no place for him to hide in such a big city as Wancheng, in fact, there should be a lot of it, after all, the Yellow Turban Army has besieged the city for three months, and many people must have died in Wancheng, and many houses will be empty.
However, if Zhou Wei hadn't killed those twenty human butchers, and no one knew about his existence, then there would be no problem for him to hide in it, he could be patient and wait for the six gamers to break Wancheng and defeat Zhang Ji on the third day, and at that time, he would naturally be able to get safe.
But now, if he kills these twenty human butchers, he will inevitably be determined by the Han army in Wancheng that there are enemy spies in this city, and this matter will even alarm Wancheng Taishou Zhang Ji, if this is the case, the situation will be very bad.
Because this is not an ordinary world, then Taishou Zhang Ji may have some powerful insight skills, or simply those Han soldiers who are searching for them have insight skills, even if they don't, but after all, it is their home field, it is easy, or rather, at least 80% of the chance to find Zhou Different.
And as long as he finds him, he will be a death, don't look at his current attributes are very high, but in fact, in front of the Han army, he is still vulnerable!
So, since this is the case, Zhou Wei has another way, that is, to kill the little boss in charge of this place - the elite butcher first, and delay the time for himself to be discovered, as long as he delays until the Yellow Turban Army attacks again, then when the Han army in the city is busy defending the city, if he creates a little chaos or something, maybe he will have a certain chance to escape!
And when he thought of this, Zhou Wei suddenly regretted a little, he shouldn't have killed those twenty human butchers cheaply, this was tantamount to startling the snake.
Because, if he waited until tomorrow daylight, the two armies fought, and he set fire everywhere in Wancheng, the effect would be very good.
My own thoughts are still too naïve!
And now, he has a 50% chance of being discovered in advance by the Han army in Wancheng.
"So the key now is whether I can kill the elite butcher before he even warns, but that's hard enough."
Zhou Wei said to himself, the strength of that elite butcher must be very strong, even if he now gets the nickname of 'Singles Maker - Shouzhen Dagger, the effect is the same as that of the widow maker', he is not necessarily the opponent of that elite butcher.
