"Xiaorou, are you awake?"

With the accident last time, Su Nian was not surprised to hear Xiao Rou's voice again.

"I woke up, I was ready to go to school after breakfast."

"Study hard, don't always be half-hearted."

"Got it, got it, you stay safe there."

After a brief exchange, Su Nian summoned the world information in his personal panel.

[World of Decay]:

World difficulty level: waning moon

Difficulty level: Scarlet War (Ruins - Waning Moon 2 stars)

Time remaining for world level refresh: 182 hours.

……

Closing the panel, Su Nian looked at the barren plain ahead, and the black city standing at the end of the plain.

To complete the side quests, you'll have to enter the city.

Although he is very greedy for the source of corrosion in the city, he wants to privately pull a cable to steal electricity to connect with Shadow City and obtain a steady stream of energy gains.

But in comparison, it is obviously safer to explore near the plains.

With the blessing of the Shadow Godhead, he didn't have to play with his life for side rewards in the early stage.

With his decision made, he came to the front of him, covered with warrior bones, and bent down to pick up a blood-colored axe from the ground.

After staring at it for a few seconds, the retrieved information from Purgatory City came to his mind.

【Tomahawk】

Equipment Strength: Not Ranked

Equipment Value: None

……

The blood-colored battle axe was very heavy, and Su Nian tried to swing it twice before discarding it, and continued to look for the weapon in hand.

Most of the weapons on the battlefield were broken, either rusty or broken, and after some searching, Su Nian found a strangely shaped weapon on a mutilated skeleton.

The main body of the weapon is made of hard wood, which is flattened in shape, and the wooden handle is flanked by sharp blades, like a saw, and each blade is designed with a bloodletting groove.

【Serrated knife】

Equipment Quality: Excellent (Green)

Equipment Strength: 9

Equipment Characteristics: None

Equipment Value: Weapons and equipment of excellent quality and above can be carried back to the main city of the faction, and can also be converted to ember time at the altar of sacrifice.

(Shadow Tip: This item contains a wisp of decaying power, which can be sacrificed and dismantled to be extracted and transformed into Shadow Ember.) ）

……

Seeing the certification of the excellent quality of the serrated knife, Su Nian was a little surprised.

He thought of a remark made by the returnees on the Internet.

They say that in the process of exploring the decaying world, there are many unknown risks, but there are also many opportunities.

The value of the items that you may pick up in the Decay World and sacrifice to the God of Purgatory even exceeds the benefits of completing the main and side quests.

Grab the hilt of the serrated knife and swing it forward twice.

The weapon is not heavy, and the feel makes Su Nian very satisfied.

His gaze swept ahead, and the ground was littered with corpses and weapons.

In his opinion, this is simply a treasure trove of resources, and he can earn a lot of money by picking up garbage.

If you can find a weapon of high quality or higher, even if you don't use it yourself, you can sacrifice it to the Shadow God Altar to disintegrate it into embers.

The battlefield under his feet reminded him of the scene that Lin Hu, the coach of the training hall, had described.

In the early days of Lin Hu's recruitment as a soldier, he was fortunate to be sent to a decaying mine.

The main quest is to collect 20 Corrupted Spirit Stones.

In Lin Hu's description, this task is simply a purgatory god making benefits, there is no danger in the mining area, he only needs to mine to complete the task.

This exploration allowed Lin Hu to earn a lot of money, and after returning from completing the mission, he became rich overnight.

Among them, the most valuable is a level 3 spirit ore, which obtained 870 embers after being sacrificed to the God of Purgatory, and the combined income of other large and small spirit ores is also more than 4,000.

In Su Nian's view, the battlefield in front of him is also a welfare scene, and it is an equipment arsenal full of blind boxes.

Draw a few more times and there will definitely be surprises.

At this moment, Su Nian suddenly felt a pain in his feet.

Looking down, a miserable white bone claw was firmly grasping at his ankle, and at the other end of the bone claw was a skeleton with only the upper half of its body left, and its body was still covered with broken armor, and a faint black aura could be seen flowing from its skull.

Bone Warrior:

Target Information: Soldiers who die on the bloody battlefield are corroded by corrosive forces, gaining a new life of corrosion, involuntarily and only acting on bloodthirsty instincts.

Target Overall Strength: Blackstone (1 Star)

Value: Corrosive Breath (automatically stored in your carry-on bag after killing the Bone Warrior)

……

After the sound of the wind breaking, the bone warrior's arm was severed with a single sword.

The second slash slashed straight at the skeletal warrior's head.

Click!

The crisp sound of bones shattering sounded, and the serrated knife in Su Nian's hand easily split the bone warrior's head in two.

I saw the black mist rise from the skeletal warrior's head, and then absorbed by the ember fire above his head.

[Faction Hint (Infernal City): Kill the Rotten Creature Bone Warrior, Main Quest Completion Progress (1/30)]

[Faction Hint (Purgatory City): Absorb the corrosive aura and automatically store it in the space bag. 】

Summoning the space bag, the first slot of the bag list has a black mist pattern.

Consciousness swept through the black mist pattern, and relevant information emerged.

【Corrosive Breath】

Item description: Obtained after killing the Bone Warrior, it can be sacrificed to the God of Purgatory in exchange for ember time.

Closing the panel, Su Nian looked at the serrated knife in his hand.

With this razor-sharp weapon, it's easy to kill level 1 decaying creatures.

Haruka first explored the world of decay, and he could barely kill decaying creatures with branches and stones, which is now comparable to a shotgun for a cannon.

But after killing the Skeleton Warrior, Su Nian also realized that the plains under his feet were not safe.

There don't seem to be corrupt creatures here, but in fact, there are many dead warriors who have been transformed into bone warriors by the power of decay, but they won't wake up without the approaching of living beings.

If you rush forward, you are likely to find yourself surrounded by skeletal warriors.

"Exploration comes first, safety is the most important."

Su Nian retreated decisively, hanging around the edge of the battlefield where the bones were buried.

This allows you to find weapons and equipment, as well as react quickly if you wake up a skeletal warrior.

Picking through the piles of bones all over the ground, Su Nian soon found a second piece of "excellent quality" equipment.

This time it wasn't a weapon, but a tattered piece of armor.

Try to wear it, Su Nian found that the armor could not fit his body, and it was obviously larger, which affected his movement efficiency.

No matter what size of monster in the game is killed, the weapons and equipment that explode after being killed can fit the player's body perfectly as long as you choose to wear them, but Decay World is not a game.

He took off his red armor and threw it into his space bag.

Just as he was about to continue his departure, he suddenly heard movement behind him and turned to look at it suddenly.

I saw a figure with white hair and wearing a combat uniform in the training hall running quickly in the direction where he was.

Behind this figure, chased an ugly creature with a fat body, a shoulder height of nearly one and a half meters, resembling a wild boar, and needle hair on its back.

【Cursed Dolphin】:

Target Information: The original race of the scene, corroded by corrosive forces, has a strong ability to adapt to the environment, has strong limbs, mainly eats plants eroded by corrosive forces to obtain energy, and has an impatient and aggressive personality.

Value: teeth, fur, heart

Overall Strength Evaluation: Blackstone (3 stars)

Seeing that it was a decaying creature evaluated by the Blackstone Three Stars, Su Nian suddenly lost his thoughts.

As for stepping forward to help, he wouldn't risk his life.

As Lin Hu reminded, at this time, going up to help could easily become the main target of the curse dolphin's attack, and the guy he helped might run faster than anyone else.

But just as Su Nian was about to turn around and evacuate, he saw the face of the figure being chased and killed by the cursed dolphin, and suddenly felt very familiar.

The young man who was being chased also looked up at him at this time, and shouted after him:

"Run, I'll hold him back!"

As he spoke, the boy took the initiative to turn around, trying to lure the monster behind him to the other side to avoid affecting him.
