Chapter 137 City PK
Chapter 137 City PK
It's finally safe!
Looking at the tall walls of Luoyang Town, Xiao Jie inexplicably felt a sense of security in his heart.
At this time, the sun was setting, and the sunlight was shining on the ancient stone walls of Luoyang Town. It seemed so reassuring in the desolate and lonely wilderness.
"Gee!" he yelled.
Carrot: “What?”
“Speed up!”
Only then did Radish speed up and run.
The two of them entered the city and then they both breathed a sigh of relief.
There was still some time before dark, so the two of them split up and took care of their own things.
Throw away the things you got today that should be thrown into the store, and store those that should be sent to the warehouse.
In addition, we need to purchase the supplies needed for tomorrow.
Xiao Jie first went to the auction house to check today's dog food revenue, which was not bad. He sold 8 secret dog foods during the day, which was not bad. He earned another 1600 coins. After deducting the cost, he made a profit of more than 1200.
Adding the reward for killing the mermaid today, the savings in the bag once again exceeded 10 taels of silver.
Although we have learned a lot about the past through investigation today, in order to restore the whole story, we still need those corpses to provide answers. Therefore, the art of corpse speaking is indispensable, and 18 points of comprehension are also indispensable.
Xiao Jie came to the auction house and searched for the keyword [insight]. Immediately, a lot of things related to insight appeared in front of him.
Huh, there are actually quite a few.
The first category is the most expensive - books, mostly Taoist scriptures and the like. After reading them, you can do some reading comprehension. As long as you pass the test, your understanding will be permanently improved. Some add one point, some add two points. This type of item is the most expensive. A book often costs hundreds or even thousands of taels of silver, and they are rarely sold.
The key is that this thing has an upper limit. Some Taoist scriptures are useless after reaching a certain level of enlightenment.
The second category is relatively cheaper, equipment -
The Magic Jade: Comprehension +3.
Huizhen Jade Crown, Perception +2...
That's roughly the case, basically it's either a helmet or a jade pendant.
But the price is also not cheap, I can’t afford it.
The third category is cheaper, and it is a pill that increases understanding.
Tongming Lingbao Pill: Comprehension +5, lasts for 1 hour, 15 taels of silver.
Divine Elixir: Perception +3, lasts for one hour, 5 taels of silver.
Brain-awakening pill: Perception +1, lasts for one hour, 1 tael of silver...
However, this type of props cannot be stacked. You can only eat one at a time, and the time is very short, so it is only suitable for emergency use.
Wow, it’s really damn expensive. The players who make pills must be making a lot of money.
It is not difficult to imagine how many pills those rich people have to take every day in order to achieve enlightenment.
But this is Xiao Jie's only choice.
His current comprehension is 14. The old man's hat can add 1 point of comprehension. With another Elixir, he can learn corpse speaking.
For the perfect reward from the river god - fight for it!
Xiao Jie decisively clicked to buy a Dihu Pill, and saw that the silver in his bag was instantly reduced by half, and he felt so painful in his heart.
This amount of money is really not worth spending.
After taking the Dihu Pill and seeing that his comprehension had reached 18 points, Xiao Jie did not hesitate and double-clicked the scroll of Corpse Speaking and successfully learned this skill.
This way, we can ask those corpses for information tomorrow.
Before he could even warm up the remaining five taels of silver, Xiao Jie ran to the martial arts gym and learned two more basic fighting skills.
[Combat Skill: Stab
Learning requirements: 2000 Wen, Agility 20.
Skill Effect: Hold the sword parallel to the ground and suddenly launch a forward thrust attack, causing 200% thrust damage. This skill cannot be parried. 】
【Combat Skill: Parry and Counter (.
Learning requirements: 2000 Wen, Agility 25.
Skill Effect: Can be used after a successful parry, immediately launch a counterattack, causing 100% weapon damage and suppressing the opponent. 】
Both skills are basic combat skills common to all swords and knives. The Gale Sword Technique is fine for killing small monsters, but if the target has high toughness, or can parry or block, it will not be very effective, especially when facing players. The number of combat skills must be increased.
The types and numbers of these mermaids have increased a lot this afternoon. If they continue like this, the two of them will not be able to hold on sooner or later, so their strength must be improved.
One combat skill costs 2000 wen, and two combat skills cost 4000 wen.
As a result, he only had a little over a thousand coins left in his bag.
Then Xiao Jie bought another 200 rough feather arrows and spent another 1000 coins.
He originally wanted to buy some kerosene bottles for emergency use, as he felt that mermaids were very flammable, but now, he gave up the idea.
Looking at the few hundred coins left in the bag, Xiao Jie felt like crying, as this money was really too much to spend.
Although his strength had been enhanced, it was still not enough. Xiao Jie hesitated for a moment, but sent a private message to Ye Luo.
The best way to increase your strength is to increase the number of teammates.
Yin Yue Sui Feng: Ye Luo, are you there?
Ye Luo: Yes. Yin Yue Sui Feng: We are in Luoyang Town, where are you?
Ye Luo: I’m still doing my professional quest, so it may take a few days before I can join you. You guys can level up slowly. Oh, by the way, the Tianxiahui outside Luoyang Town is a bit annoying, so it’s best not to provoke them.
Yin Yue Sui Feng: I’ve experienced this before, don’t worry, we’ve found other leveling spots.
After closing the private message, Xiao Jie sighed. It seemed that only the two of them could do this task.
At this moment, the sky gradually darkened.
Xiao Jie was about to log off as usual, but suddenly he realized something was wrong. Hey, why didn't any of the players around him log off?
When he walked onto the street, he found that the players who set up stalls were still there, and there were even more of them.
After walking around twice, I saw Ramen Brother also setting up a stall, so I went up to him and asked.
"Brother Ramen, what's going on? Why don't you log off?"
"Offline? Oh, you mean hiding from the night ghosts? Haha, you don't understand this. Luoyang Town has a city god, so you don't have to worry about night ghosts making trouble. As long as you stay in the city, you will be safe. Most players go out to level up during the day and come back to the town at night to set up stalls to trade and exchange information. If you want to get by in Luoyang Town, you can't miss the night market."
So that's how it is. Xiao Jie suddenly realized and felt inexplicably happy. He felt a sense of novelty coming from a remote countryside to a big city. This would be convenient in the future.
After clicking on Ramen Brother’s stall and taking a look, Xiao Jie couldn’t help but laugh. It was still the same two items, but the price was slightly lower.
"Are you planning to keep selling like this?"
"What else can I do? I can't level up. Those damn Tianxiahui have occupied all the monsters outside the city. I don't dare to go far away alone."
"Speaking of Tianxiahui, I also met those guys today."
"I advise you not to provoke them. These people have no bottom line and can do anything."
Xiao Jie asked, "Will they kill people?"
"I usually don't kill people directly, but... there are many ways to kill people, such as-"
"Beat the person to a near-death state and then throw him in front of the wild monsters?" Xiao Jie gave the answer first.
Ramen brother was a little surprised, "Yes, how did you know?"
Xiao Jie sneered in his heart, isn’t this exactly what Ximen Wuhen used?
"Do you know a guy named Ximen Wuhen?"
"Ximen Wuhen? Uh, I seem to have some impression of him. He should also be from Tianxiahui. That guild accepts all kinds of people, and it's a mixed bag. What's wrong with that?"
They are indeed birds of a feather...
Maybe Ximen Wuhen learned his experience from the Tianxiahui. Now he has some understanding of the Tianxiahui.
"Is Tianxia so powerful? Is there no one to control them?"
"They are not that strong, but they are considered the local tyrants in Luoyang Town. Their boss is called Xiong Ba Tian Xia, and he is now serving as a younger brother of Qing Long Hui in Bei Ming Province. Qing Long Hui is a big guild, so Tian Xia Hui has some face here, and it is not easy for other big guilds to deal with them.
As long as it is a novice area like Luoyang Town, the top guilds generally don’t pay much attention to it.”
No wonder, it turned out to be a country bully.
"What are the big guilds in this game?"
"I'm not too sure. After all, I'm only level 16. There are some high-level ones that I can't get in touch with. I only know a few, such as the Qinglong Society - it is said that there is a big capital behind it. The guild adopts a closed management style. The members are said to be professional players. They never contact the outside world and are very mysterious.
The Dragon Knights - it is said that they have an official background and are considered to be an organization that is relatively friendly to newcomers. They often help newcomers and also like to maintain order. They have their people in Luoyang Town. If it weren't for them, the Tianxia Association would probably be even more unscrupulous.
Pantheon - a guild formed by a group of high-level players. There are not many members in this guild, but it is said that all of them are experts. I haven't had much contact with them, but I have heard that these people are very awesome.
Oh, by the way, there is also a guild called Aoao Niubi Empire that has been gaining momentum recently. It seems that it was formed by a few wealthy people who practiced their skills. They have a lot of money, and ordinary people will be given money and equipment when they join the guild. However, the high-level people in that guild seem to be quite immature. They always say that their brothers will come and kill me... their brains are not very good. "
Aww, what an awesome empire... Xiao Jie thought to himself who the hell has such good taste to come up with such a name.
Suddenly I remembered something, "Oh, I haven't even paid you for the consultation."
"Hahaha, forget it. It's quite depressing to set up a stall across from me every day. It's nice to have someone to chat with. Just think of it as a buy three get one free deal. Hey, I just realized you're already level 11? You're leveling up so fast?"
"Haha, it's okay, mainly because I had a lot of experience before."
Xiao Jie said casually. The two were chatting when suddenly a scream was heard not far away, and the sound of weapons colliding.
Some players rushed to the square in a hurry, making quite a lot of noise.
"what's the situation?"
Xiao Jie asked loudly to a passing player.
"Someone is PKing! And he's a master! It seems to be a fight to the death, hurry up and pick up the equipment." After saying that, he ran away like a flash.
PK? In the city? Xiao Jie was surprised.
"Ramen brother, is this kind of thing common?"
"It's not common. I've never seen anyone so bold as to PK in the city."
Ramen Brother was also quite surprised.
He stopped setting up his stall, collected his things and said, "Let's go and take a look."
The two ran towards the square and saw from afar that players had surrounded the area. The rooftops and walls were crowded with people everywhere.
It is estimated that all the players in the entire Luoyang Plain area are here, probably at least two or three hundred people.
In the square, I saw two people, one chasing and the other fleeing, fighting as they ran.
