Chapter 23
Chapter 23: Bunny of Heaven and Earth
After distributing the equipment, everyone dispersed. Zhang Shan continued to farm monsters alone. Just now, killing the boss had given him 20,000 or so EXP. The main reason was that there were too many people distributing the EXP. If there were fewer people, probably he would have already leveled up by one level.
Zhang Shan looked at the experience bar. He estimated that he would be able to level up to level 12 today. To level up to level 12, he would need 180,000 EXP. It would take at least seven to eight hours. It was getting harder and harder to level up now. If he wanted to reach level 15, it would probably take more than two days.
Slowly, Zhang Shan felt that the number of players on the map of Bo Wang Wasteland had increased. It was probably because their first kill of the Captain of Sentinels had been announced in the system announcement, and had attracted many players over.
Previously when he was farming here for so long, he had basically not seen any other players. The demonkin had Magic Resistance passive, so magic-type players basically could not fight it. As for the physics-type players, most of them had difficulty withstanding the damage of the small monsters. Moreover, the small monsters were long-ranged players who threw stones. The melee players had already taken a few hits before they got close to the monster. It was not worth it to fight such monsters.
But now, from time to time, there would be players passing by him. Occasionally, he would see some close-combat groups farming the demonkins here.
Zhang Shan was feeling a bit depressed. Although he knew that it was impossible to monopolize the entire map by himself, it was troublesome to have more and more people.
Thinking of this, Zhang Shan kept changing places to farm, trying his best to avoid meeting other players. The players in the game would often start a fight if they did not get along. Although Zhang Shan’s equipment was not weak, and he would not be afraid of anyone if they really started a fight, wouldn’t that be very troublesome?
The more Zhang Shan farmed, the more remote he went. He particularly looked for places with fewer people. When he killed another demonkin, a ray of light fell into his backpack. Hmm? A piece of equipment dropped again?
Zhang Shan did not pay too much attention to it. After farming so many monsters, it was normal that some trashy equipment would drop. Usually, it was white-tier equipment. Nonetheless, he still opened his backpack to take a look.
What was this thing? It was not equipment, nor did it look like material. Could it be a quest item?
Strange Pipe: this is a strange pipe that gives off a mysterious aura. What was it for? You could go to East Capital and ask the legendary engineer Master Lu. Maybe he knew something. 1
The item description did not seem to be equipment or materials. If you were to look for an NPC to decipher it, it would probably be a quest item. It was just that what kind of quest it would trigger was not known.
However, it was a bit ridiculous to look for the NPC Master Lu in East Capital to trigger it. It would cost 10,000 gold coins to teleport to East and West Capital. Where would you get such gold coins?
However, an item that could only be deciphered by a legendary master should not be simple. He had to think of a way to get 10,000 gold coins as soon as possible and go to the east to take a look.
Speaking of which, he already had two items with the word “mysterious” on them. One of which was the mysterious metal item that he had dropped from the boss. These two items did not look ordinary. He had not returned to the city yet, so he had been carrying them on his back. It was not safe. Perhaps he should return to the city to store them first. Otherwise, he might accidentally die and it would be a pity if they were exposed. 1
Since he had been farming for so long, he should go back to repair his equipment and replenish his supplies. Thus he kept the baby and channeled back to the city.
Suddenly, the channeling failed, and Zhang Shan was puzzled.
D*mn it! He was ambushed!
System: Player Bunny of Heaven and Earth is maliciously attacking you. Returning fire within three minutes will not generate sin value.
Zhang Shan was still stunned. A Thief was using a small dagger to hack him continuously. Over 100 of his HP dropped.
A Thief’s gouge could stun the target for three seconds. It was very powerful. This Thief actually learned this skill. He was not an ordinary player.
However, Zhang Shan was not in a hurry. He did not see any other players around him. Being alone, this Thief could not kill him. After equipping the level 10 Cape, he had over 800 HP. He was no longer a little brittle skin. With the current damage of the Thief, it would take a few hits to kill him. Zhang Shan would not give him this chance.
After the stun time was over, Zhang Shan ran forward. As he ran, he summoned his baby. The Thief, Bunny of Heaven and Earth, was still chasing after him. At this time, Zhang Shan only had half of his HP left. He did not bring the big red potion. Little red could only add 50 HP, so it was not much of use. If the cooldown time of Gouge was over and he was stunned again, Zhang Shan would die.
After drinking the little red potion, Zhang Shan returned fire. At the same time, he summoned his baby to chase after the Thief and attack.
A shot was aimed at the Heaven and Earth Bunny but the damage was less than 200. The Thief’s HP was also displayed. It was more than 1,400 which was almost double that of Zhang Shan’s. It should be that he was equipped with a better quality Cape. No wonder he dared to chase after Zhang Shan and attack.
Zhang Shan did not want to run anymore. Instead, he fought with the Thief to deal damage.
The baby’s attack was not bad, which was even higher than Zhang Shan’s. However, due to its attack speed being too slow, Dumpling’s normal attack could not hit the Thief at all.
After another two hits, Zhang Shan’s HP was less than 200, while the Thief still had nearly 1,000 HP. Normally, he would definitely be lying down.
However, Zhang Shan had a killer move. Otherwise, he would not have gone up against the Thief.
Just as the Thief’s attack was about to hit Zhang Shan again, he suddenly controlled the baby to use Combo skill. In an instant, seven hits landed on the Thief, instantly killing him, dropping two pieces of trash.
Although the Thief could dodge Dumpling’s normal attack, he could not dodge the baby’s skill. The Combo instantly dealt seven hits of damage. With its current attack power of close to 300 and each hit dealt at least 200 damage, killing most of the players was like playing a game.
The Bunny of Heaven and Earth was lying on the ground. It did not return to the city to resurrect. Instead, it was cursing.
“You, trash from the Storm Guild, just you wait. I won’t stop until you reach level 0.”
D*mn it! Was there such a shameless person? Clearly, he was the one who had attacked Zhang Shan first, yet he still had the face to scold him? Zhang Shan learned something today.
Zhang Shan picked up the two pieces of trash on the ground and retorted, “Rabbit, are you really a prostitute? Are you that shameless?”
“F*ck you, you piece of trash. If you have the guts, don’t run.”
Zhang Shan ignored him. He would be a fool if he didn’t run. Who knew how many of them were here? If they came to block him, he would be finished.
Right now, it was still the cooldown time to return to the city. Zhang Shan could only think of a way to run to a place where there was no one. The map was so big anyway. He could simply hide anywhere. He would not be found in a short while.
The cooldown time of the return token to the city was relatively long. Zhang Shan found a corner where there was no one and carefully farmed monsters. At the same time, he said to the others on the team channel, “I was ambushed by a Thief from the Heaven and Earth Guild just now. I almost died. That was so close.”
“D*mn it! Where is it? Let’s go and kill them. They seemed pretty quiet today, and I didn’t expect them to start causing trouble so soon. We can’t just let it go.”
“No need. I’ve already killed that Thief. I’ll return to the city after the cooldown is over.”
“Which trash from Heaven and Earth Guild is it?”
“A Thief, Bunny of Heaven and Earth.”
“D*mn it! No way! Bunny of Heaven and Earth is a core member of their guild. His skills are very flashy. Moreover, his equipment should be pretty good. How could he be ambushed and killed by you?”
“He underestimated me. Baby got close to him, hit him seven times in a row, and instantly killed him, hehe.”
Awesome!
“F*ck, Brother Six Guan, the trash from the Heaven and Earth Guild is spouting you on the regional channel.”
At this moment, Storm the World said, “Ignore them and focus on leveling up. Be careful not to be too scattered. If they dare to cause trouble again, we’ll definitely fight back.”
Zhang Shan looked at the regional channel. True enough, that Heaven and Earth Bunny was still grumbling. However, Zhang Shan did not give a d*mn. The best way to deal with shameless people was to ignore them. If they dared to come again, he would just kill them.
While farming monsters, Zhang Shan was considering where to level up later. He definitely could not keep returning here. With the shameless nature of the Heaven and Earth Bunny, he was probably preparing to bring people all over the map to look for him.
Zhang Shan was not afraid of normal people. However, if It was those who had stun skills, he would not be able to withstand it if two people came forth. If he died, losing a level would be a waste of time for half a day.
He should change to another place and come back after some time. They could not keep looking for him, after all, they could not be not leveling up.
Just as he was thinking, a blue light fell into his backpack. Huh? Another item dropped. Was it blue?
Zhang Shan opened his backpack and looked. Haha, top-tier equipment.
Fine Silk Cape (blue): increases HP by 3,900, equipment level:15, equipment type: all classes. 1
It was top-tier equipment. Although it was only blue, capes were rare. Even in the auction house, a blue cape had never been seen before. It would be best if it was green. It was powerful with +3,900 HP. Unfortunately, it required level 15 to equip. It could not be used now.
He might as well just sell it. That strange pipe could only be used when he went to East Capital to ask what it was for. If he sold the cape for gold coins, he could sell it for at least 100,000 gold coins. The cost of teleporting to the east capital would not be a problem then. 2
The main thing was that this cape was a level 15 equipment, so he could not use it now. For him, it was temporarily useless. It was better to exchange it for gold coins. When he reached level 15, he could just get a white-tier or a green cape and make do with it.
He would ask Wind Chimes how much this cape was worth first.
“Wind Chimes, I’ve just spawned a good item, and I want to sell it first. How much do you think this kind of equipment is worth?” After saying that, Zhang Shan showed her the attributes of the Fine Silk Cape.
“No way, your luck is too good! You could spawn such a top-grade cape. Was it dropped by a small monster?”
“Yes, a demonkin dropped it.”
“You’re planning to sell such good equipment? How much do you want to sell it? Gold coins or blue coins?”
“I’m still 10,000 gold coins short. I dropped an item that might be a quest item. I have to go to the east to find an NPC. I can’t help it. If I don’t sell the Cape, I don’t know when I’ll be able to collect the teleportation fee.”
“Your luck is making me jealous. What kind of quest item is it? Did It say what it’s used for?”
“I don’t know what it’s used for. It’s a strange pipe. I have to go to East Capital to look for the legendary engineer Master Lu to find out.”
“Legendary master is a high-level title for engineering jobs. It’s definitely not a simple item that you have to look for such an NPC to find out. It’s definitely worth teleporting over.”
“I too think so.”
“Gold coins have been depreciating. The exchange rate with blue coins is about one to five now. It should be even lower in the future. How about I exchange for 10,000 gold coins and 500,000 blue coins to buy this cape?”
“Okay. Where do we trade?”
“Just at the entrance of the exchange. I’ll return to the city to exchange for gold coins first.”
“Wait for me for a while. My return to the city cooldown is still one or two minutes away. I was interrupted by the Heaven and Earth Bunny when I returned to the city just now.”
“Okay, I’ll go back first. I’ll wait for you after changing the gold coins.”
