Chapter 16: A Year Later

Although the kobold orc leader was seriously injured and could not control the energy element to fight back, his own strength should not be underestimated.

Du Wenyu didn't dare to resist hard, and took advantage of his footsteps to retreat quickly.

The kobold orc commander wielded the steel shovel axe in his hand to look aggressive, but due to the heavy damage to his left thigh, the inconvenient movement of the weapon limited the range of the weapon.

However, Du Wenyu is not at all happy now, although all the attacks have been forcibly avoided by his own body, but in the limited space of the cave, if he is not careful to be touched by the steel shovel axe, he will also return to the grassland.

Du Wenyu's spirit was highly concentrated, stepping on the blood-soaked soil to dodge again and again, although he knew in his heart that the kobold orc commander was the end of a strong crossbow, as long as he held on for a while, when it ran out of blood, he would be able to win the victory, but under the attack of the kobold orc commander getting faster and faster, it was really difficult to say whether he could hold on to that time.

Due to the disparity in strength, Du Wenyu did not intend to fight head-on, and made up his mind to dodge all the time, using his footstep advantage to contain the kobold orc leader, so that it could not use the wood elemental energy stone to heal and recover its body.

Du Wenyu, who had figured out a coping strategy, fought with the kobold orc commander.

The kobold orc commander didn't know Du Wenyu's plan, but he was seriously injured, if he didn't attack the enemy quickly, wait until his strength gradually fell, and the novel xstxt would die after all.

The kobold orc commander roared and attacked Du Wenyu at great speed, wanting to achieve victory in a short period of time.

In the face of the continuous attacks like a tide, Du Wenyu tried his best and tried his best to avoid being killed.

The kobold orc's attack speed had finally slowed down, and its movement was no longer so sharp, and its panting sound was more like a drum.

"Well, I finally got through it. If you hold on a little longer, I'm sure I'll be dragged down too!" After repeated battles, Du Wenyu's chest, which was exhausted from physical strength, was also rising and falling violently, using this limited attack gap to cushion his exhausted body.

Under such a high-intensity exercise, Du Wenyu's physical strength was very serious, and he would fall to the ground at any time.

At this moment, the kobold orc commander suddenly moved. Its heavily injured left leg seemed to have fully recovered, its huge body became lighter, and the steel shovel axe in its hand flew in the air like a fallen leaf, with no trajectory to follow, making Du Wenyu feel that there was no way to avoid it, and there was no way to escape.

"Back to the light!"

Seeing that the kobold orc commander had already made the final desperate fight at the cost of burning soul energy, Du Wenyu, who was still exhausted just now, was like grabbing a life-saving straw when he fell into the water, desperate to get the possibility of survival.

"If the kobold orc commander only burns soul energy to use the desperate killing of Returning Light, then he still has a chance!" Du Wenyu analyzed in his mind.

Moving, turning, stopping, changing direction, under the strong pressure of death, Du Wenyu ran out of oil and played everything at a super level, even so, he did not stir up the two qi of yin and yang to help himself.

Maybe at this moment of life and death, his ability will make a breakthrough.

Du Wenyu did not regret it at all, because he firmly believed in his heart that he could survive to the end.

Sure enough, because the kobold orc leader's injuries were too serious, the burning soul energy only supported the cold steel shovel axe to fly in the air for a while.

The constant movement caused a large amount of blood to gush out of his waist, and the kobold orc leader became more and more powerless, his attack speed became extremely slow, and his combat ability was greatly reduced.

Seeing that the speed of the steel shovel axe was getting slower and slower, Du Wenyu swung the white iron sword and made several tentative attacks in the interval between the attacks of the steel shovel axe.

The kobold orc leader was very embarrassed to resist, and it seemed that it was indeed not pretending, but really not working.

Good timing!

The kobold orc led an untimely turn, and finally Du Wenyu found the best opportunity to counterattack.

Quickly raising the white iron sword, avoiding the hard skin of the kobold orc leader, Du Wenyu poured all his strength into the sword and stabbed it into the hole in its thigh.

Blood gushes out again!

Du Wenyu seized this opportunity well and finally took the initiative in this protracted battle.

The precise swordsmanship continued to stab at the wound of the kobold orc leader, and the kobold orc commander, who relied on mental support, completely gave up defense, and with a tough attitude of one life for one life, it swung the steel shovel axe and attacked Du Wenyu.

Unfortunately, its attack speed is getting slower and slower, and it is too slow to threaten at all.

Under Du Wenyu's non-stop attack, it didn't take long for the kobold orc commander to finally die with hatred.

Although he had won the Ko-headed Orc Commander of the Double Moon rank, Du Wenyu, who felt that he was invincible, did not have much excitement.

However, the harvest of this battle made Du Wenyu extremely happy.

Not only did the final battle harvest thirty hedrons, but the Steel Shovel Axe and Wood Elemental Power Stones also dropped at the moment when the Kobold Commander died.

It didn't disappear, it didn't disappear, the steel shovel axe and the wood elemental energy stone lay quietly on the ground.

Du Wenyu happily picked up the Wood Elemental Power Stone and carefully placed it in the pocket on his chest.

At the same time, Du Wenyu did not hesitate to reach out and grab the heavy stainless steel shovel axe!

The white iron sword gradually disappeared, and a fierce prompt sounded randomly: "The white iron sword has been recovered, and eight hundred and twenty crystals have been sold after depreciation!"

Du Wenyu didn't care about the fraction that was still being given up, but avoided sudden changes, and immediately walked towards the entrance of the cave without making any stops.

At this time, the heavy rain had stopped, and the blue sky and the beautiful purple sun could be seen from the entrance of the cave.

As soon as he crawled out of the hole, a breeze gently swept through, the fresh air and the aroma of grass came to his nose, Du Wenyu took a deep breath and said softly: "It's so beautiful to be alive!"

Exiting the independent space, Du Wenyu ignored the fact that his stomach was already grunting with hunger, and immediately asked Li Lie dissatisfiedly: "Is this the purpose you said before?" Although the harvest this time is good, I have to say that this challenge is also outrageous. In the face of the big boss-level kobold orc leader, I can defeat it in that situation. It's much less difficult, why is that?"

Because in Wonderland, it's impossible for you to challenge the Wonderland Beasts and get the Wonderland items smoothly. In fact, there will often be scenes of people snatching inside, such as your first encounter in the fairyland! You must know that you are not only facing the strange beasts of the fairyland, but also the threat of the same race! In the fairyland, not only strength is required, but also accurate judgment, adventurous spirit, and so on, so I will make such an arrangement! Do you think this is not good?"

Du Wenyu felt a little dilemma, and said his thoughts: "No, I think it's very good, but I still feel a little opportunistic, didn't you say that stealing and playing tricks was just an expedient measure, and said angrily that even if I meet an opponent who is one level higher than you, you will die a miserable death." ”

"As long as the rules allow, opportunism is also part of strength!" replied in an affirmative tone.

Du Wenyu couldn't help but complain: "Okay, that's it, I still have a question to ask! After a few fights in the high-level arena, I feel that the challenge and combat experience brought by boxing matches cannot be compared to fighting in an independent space." I really don't know what this boxing match is all about, but you still let me stick to it, it's obviously a waste of time!"

"Your strength has indeed improved faster than I expected, but this kind of open boxing match is not very difficult, and it is normal for you to think it is not challenging, but I believe that you will not think so after a while. Li Lie explained.

Du Wenyu was very dissatisfied with the answer given by Li Lie, and said disdainfully: "What is it after a while, the fact that this open boxing tournament is only an ornamental project, a way to make money in the center of the arena, and it is not as good as the task in the independent space now in terms of cruelty and challenge." Even if it takes another half a year and a year, it won't improve anywhere. ”

"What if the future competition is an underground black match?" asked sharply.

Du Wenyu asked: "Underground black match? What is that? Why haven't you heard of it, is it a private death fight?

"Yes, you guessed it right, the underground black tournament is when the major families compete with fighters trained by themselves, and the purpose is to conduct a game between families through huge bets!" replied Li Lie in a rousing voice.

Du Wenyu continued to ask: "Is it just because of the huge bet?

"Of course, that kind of upper-level game is not something you can understand, they usually bet on a game is the family's annual income, do you think it will be carried out through the way of regular competitions? Not to mention the high 25% deduction tax and rake, even if it is the center of the arena, does it dare to invest so much money to operate, I'm afraid only by clarifying the limit of each game! Shady or something, and because the black race allows death, there is no fake match at all, and it will not be manipulated behind the scenes, so it will be supported by the major families!" Li Lie explained in detail.

Du Wenyu suddenly came to his senses and said, "Understood, you mean to let me perform in the regular arena and then enter the black game, right?" ”

"Yes, after all, you need a guide to enter the black game, not everyone is qualified, you can enter if you want to. Once you're inside, you'll find that you'll be satisfied with both your earnings and the difficulty you want to challenge. Li Lie recounted in a calm voice, seemingly not worried about Du Wenyu's danger in the black match.

Du Wenyu not only did not feel timid or afraid, but also said in a joyful tone: "It's really exciting!"

Li Lie said calmly: "But it also depends on luck, after all, the major families don't know your details, and they believe in the players cultivated in their own families." If someone reaches out to you, you can give it a try!"

Du Wenyu asked curiously: "Strange, it's really strange, how come a ghost born in a fairy realm like you knows more about reality than me, why is this?"

"I'll tell you when you enter the fairyland. Let's eat lunch first, not eating on time will have a detrimental effect on your physical development, and recently I have been concentrating on improving my strength in an independent space!"

After hurriedly killing the still delicious lunch, Du Wenyu couldn't wait to start the afternoon journey, wanting to find the kobold orc digger and have a more difficult battle!

In this way, Du Wenyu seized every minute and every second and worked hard to improve his strength in the independent space.

"Squeak, squeak, squeak!"

A fat and big mouse ignored Du Wenyu, who was lying not far away, and foraged for food in a large pile of household garbage, making a cheerful sound again and again.

At this time, the purple sun had just risen, and the light had not yet had time to hit the ground!

Du Wenyu is in the final battle with the brave ko-headed orc commander in the independent space.

Accurately dodging the special mutated energy element long-range attack controlled by the kobold orc commander, Du Wenyu swung the steel shovel axe to make an inevitable counterattack.

Decide!

Freeze in an instant!

The kobold orc commander and Du Wenyu remained motionless, and even the two special mutated energy elements, gold and wood, were still in mid-air.

"Pause, emergency pause, I smell your little friend's breath, he's coming in soon, get out!"

Under the fierce reminder, Du Wenyu hurriedly withdrew from the independent space, quickly stepped forward and kicked away the fat rat that was happily foraging, and began to quickly clean up the messy daily necessities around him, and prepared to clean up the garbage.

A minute later, of course, after Du Wenyu tidied up, he saw Xuan Mingyuan coming in a hurry, carrying a large bamboo basket on his back, which seemed to contain a lot of things.

"Hey, I've finally found here!" Xuan Mingyuan immediately let out a hearty laugh when he saw Du Wenyu.

Du Wenyu hurriedly stepped forward to help take over the heavy basket, and calculated carefully, it was just a week before Xuan Mingyuan left.

Seeing Xuan Mingyuan's expression, Du Wenyu also guessed the result, and said with a smile: "Aunt Ping's illness is cured, and her body is okay!"

"Three hundred and twenty pearl coins don't have white flowers, and the wood energy element really isn't covered! With the help of medicine, my mother can get up and move that day, but her body is still very weak and can't do heavy work. Xuan Mingyuan happily explained.

Du Wenyu patted Xuan Mingyuan's shoulder and said, "Then you are still rushing over like this, don't take good care of Aunt Ping!"

Hearing Du Wenyu's words of concern, Xuan Mingyuan was even happier and said: "I was still forcibly kicked out by the old lady, saying that if I don't leave, I will stop taking medicine, let me do it with you, and I can't delay your business because of her illness! Hehe, but don't worry, I asked my little sister to quit her job as a laundry washer and go home to take care of the old lady! So I can also rest assured! Come, here are some seasonal fresh fruits, as well as the game I hunted, you taste the fruits first, these are all washed, I will roast the game." ”

"Together, together!" Looking at Xuan Mingyuan's happy appearance, Du Wenyu waved his hand and said:

Xuan Mingyuan hurriedly pushed Du Wenyu away and said: "How can I let you do it yourself, I'll just come! My old lady said that I must repay you as a great benefactor! Without you, there would be no current her!"

"Don't be so polite, I used to come to your house often to eat, since Aunt Ping cares so much about taking care of me, how can I help reciprocate!" Du Wenyu shook his head dissatisfied.

Xuan Mingyuan was still unwilling, and said loudly: "Don't care, don't care, anyway, you just have a good rest, I'll take care of everything!"

Du Wenyu didn't seem to hear Xuan Mingyuan's protest, but took out the firewood directly from the bamboo basket and began to prepare for the barbecue.

When the purple sun in the sky gradually moved to forty-five degrees and began to release enough light, the two of them also made this hearty and delicious breakfast smoothly in the midst of joking and noisy.

After the meal, Du Wenyu and Xuan Mingyuan disregarded their own image, half lying on the ground covered with a wrapped cloth, tasting fresh fruits, and began to discuss tomorrow's game.

Because he wanted to get enough time to exercise in an independent space, and because he was no longer short of money, Du Wenyu did not plan to rush to participate in the boxing match, and decided to have two competitions in weapon confrontation and hand-to-hand combat in a week's time.

Xuan Mingyuan naturally respects Du Wenyu's decision very much, after all, the bonus and winning streak of the double match in a week, plus the bet money obtained from the bet, are very considerable.

In this way, in addition to the competitions that must be played every week, Du Wenyu spends most of his time in an independent space for more and more difficult tasks.

When anyone focuses on something, they always feel that time flies quickly, and Du Wenyu is no exception.

In the independent space, Du Wenyu has challenged the Troll Hunter at the edge of the forest, the Sharp Pony in the center of the swamp, and the Golden Scorpion in the hot sand dunes......

In the real ring, when Du Wenyu challenged all the contestants, he unconsciously found that a year had passed.

Because of his unremitting training, Du Wenyu had already reached the physical condition of a tenfold time deficit half a year ago, so he spent more than 2,000 days practicing tasks in an independent space, which is equivalent to five and a half years of hard practice in the real world.

And Du Wenyu was also surprised to find that he had already reached the age of fifteen years and nine months, and it was only two or three months away from the ceremony of the awakening of the sixteen-year-old talent.

Now, I have fought in depressions, meadows, mud, swamps, sand dunes, shallow water, waves and other places, and have successfully passed the grinding and training of the mission, and then there are only glaciers and snow-capped mountains, the two most cruel polar tests!

Du Wenyu clenched his fists, looked into the distance, and said in a loud voice: "From tomorrow, I will start the final challenge and go to the ice and snow polar region to kill the giant white bear!"
