A battle is taking place somewhere in the "Forest of First Leaves".

Dark green barbarian, this is the name of the monster that now confronts Li Mengxi, who is dressed in red and wields a one-handed broadsword. It is a hybrid of a goblin and a giant, with an ugly face and a tall body, armed with a shoddy wooden stick, high attack power, high health, and high defense, but it also has the common shortcomings of power-type monsters - extremely low agility and spirit. Although it is a humanoid monster, it is not very intelligent, so it cannot do magic.

This monster has two synonyms among players, one being "A Gift for Free".

Since this monster is very slow and not easy to take out, it can even give every member of a five-person team enough opportunities to exercise. Not to mention a lone wanderer like Li Mengxi, defeating a level 8 or 9 guy can get experience points equivalent to defeating a dozen level 5 or 6 goblins in a row, and fighting against a dark green barbarian with a territorial range will never cause bad luck. In addition, the crafting materials and money dropped by this guy are also quite satisfying, especially the materials that can be dropped to make mage equipment even though they can't do magic.

The other has a nickname for "The Arrogant Killer", and if someone despises it, he is likely to die the next second like the owner of the seven tombstones in the cemetery.

Despite its slow movements, the Dark Green Barbarian has a perverted passive ability that has a very low chance of being activated with continuous attacks, allowing it to move at a rate that exceeds the current agility of most players. At this time, it usually makes a triple hit that even players rarely master, and when combined with terrifying attack power, it can be called a one-hit kill.

However, after this skill, it will fall into a long period of weakness, and its movements will become more than twice as slow as usual, and the passive skill will also be sealed. Therefore, a very small number of players who have trained their agility to the point of rebellion at this stage will specifically take advantage of this.

Li Mengxi is one of them.

"Whew!"

After he continued to slash the opponent's health with his one-handed sword, the dark green barbarian finally let out a roar, which was the precursor to the activation of its ability, and it was also a death sentence for the average player.

But it was different for Li Mengxi, with his agility, the dark green barbarian's actions after this were still within the range of reaction, and then it was simply tortured and killed. He's been doing this since level 7, but today something happened.

"Danger!"

Suddenly, an exclamation sounded, distracting Li Mengxi's attention. His movements couldn't help but pause briefly, and this moment was the difference between life and death.

While realizing this, Li Mengxi was still struggling desperately, trying his best to move his body faster. But on the other hand, his experience and reason were telling him that it was too late.

However, the dark green barbarian's stick did not fall as expected. Three circles spread randomly around the monster, and three chains stretched out from it, imprisoning it.

Magic!

Li Mengxi exclaimed in his heart. The magic in this game world is very cumbersome to use. First of all, you need to master 108 things called magic characters. Then, a spell corresponds to a string, and when you use it, you need to call it up in a dedicated window to enter it. Since the shortest string also has ten characters, not to mention the inconvenience of use, even memory is a problem. Therefore, not to mention all the players in the battle group, seven or eight times out of ten, they have chosen the pure martial arts line, and magic is almost extinct in battle.

Soon, Li Mengxi came back to his senses from his surprise and made a preparatory move to launch the skill. The one-handed sword he was wielding immediately glowed red.

It was a trifecta of lightning and flint, with the first sword splashing ice chips, the second sword carrying Lan Feng, and the third sword spewing flames.

"Magic!" the previous voice rang out again.

There is no clear classification of skills, but players divide themselves into two categories through judgment, non-combat classes can be said to be countless, and there are three types of combat classes: martial arts with pure physical judgment, magic with pure magic judgment, and the last one is magic with double judgment.

Although magic can be said to be an endangered species, its value and martial arts are in the middle of the match. Magic skills are definitely much higher than the first two, after all, one skill can deal double damage of different natures, which is the desire of melee players. Of course, the difficulty of acquiring magic skills is not ordinarily high, and some of the magic skills that appear so far are even unclear.

And what Li Mengxi uses is still the rarity of the rarity-combo magic technique, the power is naturally not the same as ordinary martial arts.

After three consecutive hits, half of the health bar that the dark green barbarian had left was actually reduced to zero in one go. With a customary scream, the massive body fell backwards, dissolving into tiny points of light before it could fully touch the ground.

Immediately, the dropped catalog popped up in front of Li Mengxi: 50 silver coins, 35 copper coins, and three materials. As for what the props are, Li Mengxi is not interested. The number of tune drops he has obtained is already too much, both in variety and quantity.

More than that, he wanted to know who was shouting. However, the situation is really laughable. Although that person interfered with Li Mengxi and made him fully experience a heartbeat, it was probably that person who used the imprisoning magic. I'm afraid that person mistakenly thought that Li Mengxi was going to be hit by the combo of the dark green barbarian and came to help.

So, who is it exactly?

Turning around and looking in the direction where the voice came from, Li Mengxi couldn't help but show a surprised expression. Because,That's the person he knows.,One of the teammates who "teamed up" for the first time and so far after coming to this world.,One of the people who deciphered the obelisk documents.,Hinata Nain.。 Lately, she has often been seen hunting dark green barbarians alone in this area, just like herself, but she hasn't said hello.

At this time, she was still wearing the same light blue leather female swordsman suit as in the past few days, which was convenient for exercise and graceful, and she ran over nervously.

"I said you, are you okay, is there any injury?" After stopping, Hinata Nain asked as soon as she didn't even have time to catch her breath. Judging from the nervous tone, if someone else is there, they will definitely think that the relationship between the two is not ordinary.

Therefore, Li Mengxi was also a little stunned.

"It's me who fights monsters, why are you so nervous?"

"What are you talking about! Of course I'm worried you're going to die!"

After saying this, Hinata Naine also realized the possibility of causing a misunderstanding, and suddenly panicked.

"Well, that's not what it means, I mean ......"

"Anyone who sees this will be like this. Are you trying to say that?"

"Yes! That's it, isn't that a matter of course!"

"This is not the case with other people, especially the lone wanderer, because if you care about others indiscriminately, you risk losing yourself. Saying that, Li Mengxi walked towards the place where the monster died, because he seemed to see a drop item that did not go directly into the storage warehouse.

"But don't you just do it? ”

Hinata Nain said to Li Mengxi's back, causing him to stop and turn around.

"What? Why don't I remember ever doing anything like that?"

"Didn't you kill all the monsters on the route in advance when I was about to go back these days? Thanks to you, I was much more relaxed when I went back. ”

"Ahh After Li Mengxi learned the details, he turned around and continued to take steps, and replied as he walked: "It's just that the time for us to go back happens to be the front and back feet, and it happens to be the same route." Anyway, you've noticed me a long time ago. ”

"Isn't that a matter of course? Who told you to observe me every day? ”

"That's because it's very eye-catching. ”

"You, you, what are you talking about!"

"Don't get me wrong, I mean you're pretty moving. As he spoke, Li Mengxi had already walked to the place, and he half-squatted down to pick up the item, which was a hardcover book, which was displayed as a "lost ancient book".

"In that case, don't use a misunderstood statement in the first place!"

Hinata sneered, but didn't get a response. So, she couldn't help but pouted her cheeks and walked over angrily.

"Hey, you're listening to me......"

When he approached Hinata, he found that Li Mengxi was looking at the book in his hand with all his attention.

"Is there anything special about it?"

Hearing this, Li Mengxi came back to his senses, stood up, and took a deep breath.

"Listen to me, it's a quest item. ”

Missions are generally an indispensable element of MMORPGs, but not a single mission has been discovered since players entered the game world for more than a month.

It's no wonder that Hinata Nain was stunned for a moment after hearing Li Mengxi's words.

"Mission item! In other words, we are the ones who discovered the first mission!"

"It's not us, it's 'me'. ”

"Hey, don't be so stingy. I also helped that barbarian just now. ”

"I appreciate your concern. But you were too worried just now, and I could have done it without your intervention. ”

"Yes. In other words, your agility value is already more than 300, which is amazing. Responding casually, Naine Hinata was manipulating something in front of her.

Immediately afterwards, Li Mengxi received an invitation to form a team. Looking at the inquiry window that suddenly popped up in front of him, he couldn't help but glance at Naine Hinata, and the girl smiled back.

"Hurry up and accept it. You don't really want to be alone, are you?"

"Alas!"

Li Mengxi sighed helplessly. So far, he can only blame him for not saying the task item in his brain for a while. If you don't agree to share it now, who knows if Naine Hinata will spread the news to the people of Hatsuba City, it may be quite troublesome at that time. And it's also a good choice for the efficiency of completing tasks. So, he finally pressed yes.

At this moment, in Li Mengxi's eyes, Hinata Nayin's status bar and name appeared on the top of his head. Hinata Nayin can also see Li Mengxi's state there.

"Let's get started!"

At the urging of Nayin Hinata, Li Mengxi focused his mind on the item, and then a taskbar appeared in front of the two of them.

The content is very simple, it is to give the book to the administrator NPC named Scarlet Sairos on the basement level of the library in Hatsuba City. But the two of them didn't show a relaxed look because of this, they both felt that this first task that appeared with great difficulty would not be so simple, and it was likely to be the beginning of a task chain.

"What should I do, will I go back now?" asked Nayin Hinata, who had finished thinking first.

Li Mengxi looked up at the early sky, and then looked at the experience value of the last item in the status bar. He is now level 8, and his experience points are still quite a distance away from being promoted to level 9, so he is not in a hurry.

"I'm going back. What about you?"

"I'm going back with you, of course. We're a team, so we're going to have to keep up with the same pace. What's more, I'm only level 7 now, and even if I stay here for a few more hours, I won't be able to soar to the sky right away. ”

"That's right, let's go. Saying that, Li Mengxi took the lead in the direction of Hatsuha City, followed by Hinata.

"By the way, what kind of skill did you just use? It looks like a combo, but it looks like a magic skill. ”

"It's a combo magic technique, called 'Three Styles', that can attach three different magical attributes. By the way, the acquisition conditions are unknown, which means that it suddenly appears in the skill list. ”

Actually, Li Mengxi didn't say everything, his skill would evolve. When it's just the first level of proficiency, it's just a hit that adds water to the 'one-set'. The second layer becomes the 'Two Style', which adds a blow of the wind attribute and becomes a double attack. The third layer became the 'Three Styles' of the triple attack, with a fire attribute hit. And so on, and there are probably "four styles", "five styles", "six styles" and so on.

The fact that the combo magic technique can evolve is really amazing, and if the news leaks out, it may cause trouble, so it would be nice to surprise Nane Hinata by simply saying the combo magic technique.

However, the girl's reaction was not as strong as Li Mengxi thought.

"I didn't expect that not only Richard and Williams, but also you have mastered the combo magic technique. ”

"What! Do you have any contact with them?"

"Just heard. Of the seven of us, I only overlap with you in terms of range of action. Haven't you heard it talk about it?"

"I have neither the time nor the interest in listening to other people's small talk. ”

"You don't have to go out of your way to hear about it, or do you have no free time at all?"

"I've been trapped in the game world, so what kind of free time are you talking about. ”

And I need to be strong enough to try and find clues. Li Mengxi added a sentence in his heart.

"That's not going to work. It's rare to have such a fun game, how can you not enjoy it. ”

"Enjoy, don't you know that more than 200 people have died!"

"Of course I do! I don't mean to blaspheme the dead, and I don't want to defend the people who tricked us here, but I just think that even in this virtual world, life must be colorful. ”

"You're really an optimist. ”

"That's the right attitude towards life. And, regardless of the fact that we're stuck here, don't you think this game really needs to be made to make every detail interesting for the player?"

Li Mengxi's footsteps paused slightly, this was his brother's game, so he couldn't deny this. Maybe Hinata is right, but he has a persistence that can't be compromised.

"Tell me about you. So Li Mengxi changed the subject, "Do you often use magic in battle?"

"Of course I can use it, it's rare to learn. ”

"You're amazing, too. ”

"Hehe, I'm not boasting, although I can't do it yet, but I'm quite talented in endorsement. ”

In this way, the two walked and chatted back to the player's birthplace, Hatsuba City. As they had thought, what they got was indeed a chain of tasks. After handing the book to the NPC, they were given a map in return, and were asked to retrieve an item that the NPC needed from the marked location.

At this time, they have not yet reached level 9 and do not realize the true meaning that this quest chain may have.
