Chapter 5: A Sword
(03:30/06:00)
When the time was just the third and a half hours, Ye Ran also arrived at the periphery of the gray forest.
The map of this game was unexpectedly grand, bigger than when Ye Ran observed it in the afternoon, and it was only after driving for more than an hour and destroying wave after wave of monsters that Ye Ran saw this forest.
The forest at night always looks extremely gloomy, I don't know if it's Ye Ran's illusion, the inexplicable viscosity in the air is higher.
With each breath, the air ingested seems to gradually liquefy, and it becomes more and more laborious.
Will you drown in the air when the time limit is up?
Ye Ran smiled lightly, he had already experienced the great terror between life and death once, and now nothing could shake his heart, he would believe in everything about him, and he would do it before.
The dark forest exudes a cold feeling that can make ordinary people shudder, and anyone who faces this calm darkness will have a feeling that they are about to be swallowed up.
Taking out the spare food and recovering his strength, Ye Ran raised his steps and walked towards the forest.
【Task Refresh】
Di, when he stepped into the first step into the forest, the silence of the middle of the night was suddenly broken by a strange noise, and even with Ye Ran's psychological quality, he almost missed a beat of his heartbeat.
The map, which originally only had gray squares, now has a green dot that keeps flashing green.
After Ye Ran identified his location and map, he headed in the direction of the left front.
The level of monsters that appear in the gray forest is at level 2-6 in the way this game is expressed in the world, which means that the four monsters of gray wolf, wild wolf, forest wolf, and brown bear appear most frequently.
These news were learned from players during the evening leveling period, but Ye Ran could only understand this information, after all, the current players are just novices.
Although there are some players who are playing in the so-called closed beta, Ye Ran does not have the luck to meet that kind of player.
Slow down and hide his body in the dark, although his current body is a little under-controlled because he has not been trained for a long time, Ye Ran still tries his best to adjust his posture.
"But I'm more alert than I thought."
With a bitter smile muttering to himself, Ye Ran bowed down slightly, took a deep breath, and raised his hands in the shape of tiger claws.
Click, click, click......
With the sound of stepping on dead leaves, several timberwolves with more bright hair appeared in front of Ye Ran with red eyes open, their mouths open, and their miserable white interlaced canine teeth flowed with sinuous transparent liquid.
The pace was in a hurry, and Ye Ran stepped on the rhythmic and peculiar steps to instantly approach the nearest timberwolf.
Stretching out his hand, his left hand in the shape of a tiger's claw held the big mouth of the attack, and his right hand grabbed the wolf's claw, and with the momentum of the timber wolf's attack, he spun around vigorously and threw it at the other wolves.
Puff puff...
Probably didn't expect Ye Ran to adopt such a method, and the other two wolves were knocked out of the air by these impacts, and stopped peacefully in the air.
Buying time, Ye Ran let go of the wolf's mouth that was biting his wrist, and hit his knee up silently. The timberwolf's jaw couldn't help but close its originally wide open mouth under this impact, and its body shook off towards the jaw.
Ye Ran stretched out his hand again, turned sideways with one foot, hugged the wolf's head with both hands again, and slammed the neck of the timberwolf against his knee that had not yet fallen.
Smack.
Not so crisp sound, the body of the timber wolf suddenly stiffened, and then hung down softly, if Ye Ran could see the monster's blood bar, he could see that the timber wolf's blood bar was in an extra state, and the blood bar was firmly declining.
Ye Ran let go of the timber wolf in his hand and swooped down to avoid the big mouth attacks of the two timber wolves that had already pounced.
With his hands on the ground, Ye Ran kicked one of the timberwolves in the stomach and kicked it away.
Then again, kick, get up, hold your head, and kneel.
Coherent.
The remaining one, of course, is not to be feared.
It didn't take much time for Ye Ran to deal with the three timberwolves, it just took more physical strength so as not to attract the attention of other monsters.
took out a piece of jerky and put it in his mouth, enjoying the fragrance of the jerky gradually spreading in his mouth, as well as the gradual recovery of his physical strength, Ye Ran flipped through the remnants of the three timberwolves.
More than a hundred kolls, and two pieces of fur.
Pulling open the pocket fixed to the belt, Ye Ran put it in.
It's really convenient to have an inventory like a player.
Thinking that he had to hide his identity in order not to arouse suspicion even when he asked for information, Ye Ran couldn't help but sigh.
Looking up, Ye Ran walked towards the place where the task item was located again.
Along the way, Ye Ran encountered several waves of timberwolves, fortunately, Ye Ran had never encountered more than three at the same time, unfortunately, Ye Ran had already encountered five waves of monsters in just one fifth of the journey.
If Ye Ran hadn't been alert enough and had begun to adapt to the light of this forest, he might have been knocked down a long time ago.
Tap, tap again.
Unconsciously, Ye Ran's figure began to slowly blend into this darkness, and his eyes became more and more calm.
The air is getting thicker.
It's here.
After destroying more than a dozen waves of monsters again, Ye Ran stopped and subconsciously touched the pocket where the jerky was holding the recovery of physical strength, the last piece.
Put it in your mouth and chew slowly.
Hiding his figure even better, Ye Ran glanced at the time.
(05:00/06:00)
There was still an hour, but the scene on the other side, Ye Ran felt tricky for the first time, and then his gaze stopped, and all his mind was seized by that kind of thing.
It was a clearing, and the so-called quest items were quietly stuck in a tree stump, illuminated by a small ray of moonlight that had forced itself into the forest.
It was an unpretentious sword, and if I had to say, it was actually more like a one-handed sword. The simple silver-white slender sword body reflected a bleak white light, and the square sword grid was a hilt made of inexplicable leather, and there was no bare sword head without a sword spike.
Ye Ran had seen such an unpretentious long sword many times before, whether it was in books or on the Internet, but never had a sword that would give him such a strong impact.
For the first time, Ye Ran wanted to dance the sword.
I want to dance the sword desperately.
For what?
Ye Ran pressed his heart, his heart was constantly beating, thirsting, and joyful.
That's my sword.
His body told him that it was for no reason, but it was an intuition that was extremely strong.
This instinct kept pounding his heart and churning his brain. Slowly closing his eyes, feeling the flow of air, feeling the flow of blood, it seemed that something was gently flowing in his ears, it was something that was ringing.
In his mind, he suddenly remembered something from a long, long time ago.
When he was a child, from the beginning, what he wanted to learn was not boxing, but swordsmanship.
But on the surface, the world is still a civilized society governed by the rule of law, and there will be a lot of trouble when walking with a weapon.
After hearing this persuasion, as well as the order from the family, Ye Ran changed to boxing.
Thinking about it now, Ye Ran leaned on the back of the big tree, his eyes seemed to have penetrated the time limit, and he saw the compromised self in the past, the fragile unwillingness.
It turns out that I should have learned swords at that time.
Slowly getting up, in the air that was gradually sticky and close to water, Ye Ran opened his hands, looked at the fist gloves in his hands, and chuckled.
It's never too late to start.
Turning around, Ye Ran didn't have the slightest intention of hiding his figure, and walked in the direction of the sword.
Roar~
A low roar sounded with a breathtaking momentum, and a huge black shadow was slowly standing up, and the shadow that diffused gradually exceeded Ye Ran's height.
Brown Bear King, LV6 Wild Boss Monster.
