The reason why Xu Zhiyuan is so comfortable hunting fierce beasts is mainly because he takes advantage of the rules of the game during the novice protection period.

The beast cannot leave his territory, as long as he stands outside the beast's territory, he can ensure his safety.

Once within the realm of the beast, his advantage is gone.

However, when Xu Zhiyuan was about to turn away, a brown-black porcupine covered with sharp thorns rushed out and charged at him.

Each thorn is very sharp, shining in the sun, which is terrifying.

It turned out that this was the territory of a level 2 porcupine, and when Xu Zhiyuan had just entered this territory, the porcupine hidden in the bushes had already noticed him.

It's just that the level 2 porcupine is obviously smarter than the level 1 beast, and it doesn't attack directly, but quietly waits for its prey to approach.

Fortunately, Xu Zhiyuan realized that something was wrong and began to retreat in advance, if he waited until he was close, it would be difficult to escape.

Just one glance, the other party's message was imprinted into his mind.

Beast: Porcupine

Level: Level 2

Type: Strength

HP: 220/220

Talents: Backstab Strafe (E-rank, the back of the porcupine can unleash a spike attack, dealing 25 damage to the target unit.) ）

Seeing the composite index of porcupine, Xu Zhiyuan couldn't help but look solemn.

The porcupine has 25 attack damage, and he now has 200 HP, which can only withstand a maximum of 7 attacks.

The problem is that once he is hit by the opponent, he may not be able to escape, and the opponent is able to inflict multiple attacks on him in a very short period of time.

What's more, he didn't know how many porcupines there were, and if they appeared in groups like the previous rats, it would be completely over.

Xu Zhiyuan was panting like a cow and sped towards the outside of the porcupine's territory, the messy bush branches hanging out of his trouser legs with many holes, and his legs were covered with blood.

The pain did not stop Xu Zhiyuan's footsteps, but made him run faster.

After reaching level 2, his agility stat increased by 10 points, and his speed was more than double that of before, and his speed was incredible when running at full strength.

Finally, when the porcupine was about to catch up, he jumped out of the opponent's territory and narrowly escaped the catastrophe.

When Xu Zhiyuan turned around, he found that the porcupine was lying down, and the black light on his back was shining, ready to cast the backstabbing and strafing skill.

Every sharp thorn trembled, and if it was shot, it would be like an arrow piercing the heart.

It's just that Xu Zhiyuan has already left its territory, and the target of the attack is gone, and at this time it is half-crouching there, not knowing for a while whether to continue to cast skills.

Obviously, the novice protection rules confused it, and after Xu Zhiyuan left its territory, it lost its target for attack, and it didn't know what to do for a while.

However, Xu Zhiyuan was not idle, and when the other party was confused, the magic power in his body began to surge.

With the wave of the magic wand in his hand, Xu Zhiyuan targeted the level 2 porcupine.

Just try out your new skills!

"Little Fireball!"

[Multi-cast trigger, 128 heavy!] 】

As Xu Zhiyuan waved the magic wand in his hand, a fist-sized fireball appeared out of thin air and smashed towards the porcupine's head.

That is, at the moment when the small fireball appeared, multiple spells were triggered, and 128 small fireballs continued at the same time, like a series of cannons, and smashed down on the porcupine's head.

Each small fireball has 20 attack damage, and with the 5 boost of the wand, a single fireball can deal 25 damage.

Now that 128 recast is triggered, what is 25 times 128?

Xu Zhiyuan didn't need to calculate, under the attack of a large number of fireballs, the fierce porcupine was smashed to pieces, and the pork was burned to slag.

This blow was so strong that even Xu Zhiyuan himself was shocked.

[Kill a level 2 porcupine successfully, experience points +25, gold +150.] 】

It is worthy of being a level 2 beast, the experience points and gold coins have all increased by 5 times, and killing a level 2 beast is equivalent to five level 1 beasts.

"Oops, the magic cost 29 points, it's a bit of a loss, it seems that it will be better to pierce it with poison in the future."

The attack power of the small fireball spell is twice that of the poisonous piercing, and the mana cost is 30 points, because the magic wand can reduce the magic cost by 1 point, so that the magic cost of the small fireball spell becomes 29 points.

Although the attack power of the poisonous puncture is only 10 points, the magic power consumption is only 19 points, and for Xu Zhiyuan, it is obviously more cost-effective for the poisonous puncture.

Under the amplification of multiple casting, even if it is 10 points less attack, the poisonous piercing can still kill the level 2 beast in an instant.

"This blow should be used as a test of the power of the small fireball technique, whether to hunt the beast or continue to use the poisonous piercing."

Xu Zhiyuan chose the best combination of combat power, and he wanted to hunt the beast in the simplest and most effective way.

The loud commotion soon caught the attention of the other porcupines, and seven porcupines poked their heads out of the bushes and looked towards the place where the flames were burning.

Seeing this scene, Xu Zhiyuan couldn't help but pinch a cold sweat for himself.

Fortunately, I ran fast, otherwise there might be a danger to my life.

As long as the porcupine is revealed, the next thing is much simpler.

Xu Zhiyuan strode into the other party's territory and walked towards the burnt porcupine carcass.

He originally planned to get a roast pork leg to eat, but unfortunately the power of the small fireball technique was too great, and the porcupine didn't even have a bit of dregs left.

In the bushes opposite, many porcupines became angry when they saw that a human had entered their territory.

In their opinion, the flames in the territory must have been caused by this hateful human, there are bushes everywhere, and the other party is here to set fire to everyone!

The thought that the other party had come to destroy their home made the many porcupines even angrier, and they roared furiously and charged at the outsiders together.

Xu Zhiyuan glanced back at the edge of the territory, his heart was a little relieved, and he quickly raised his magic wand and nodded at the porcupine that rushed to the front.

"Poisonous Piercing!"

[Multiple cast triggers, 165 heavy!] 】

[Kill a level 2 porcupine successfully, experience points +25, gold +150.] 】

After the first blow, Xu Zhiyuan successfully killed a level 2 porcupine, but the Poison Piercing skill entered a cooldown state, and he needed to wait 30 seconds to cast it again.

But the porcupine behind him was already close in front of him, and the other party could not leave him 30 seconds.

"Forget it, let's continue to cast the Little Fireball Technique!"

Originally, Xu Zhiyuan wanted to save some magic power, but when it came to the real battle, there was not much room for choice.

"Little Fireball!"

[Multiple cast triggers, 3224 heavy!] 】

"Three thousand two hundred and twenty-four?"

Just when Xu Zhiyuan was shocked and surprised, the overwhelming fireball had already swept through the entire porcupine territory, turning a sea of fire within a radius of several thousand meters.
