Chapter 41: First Death

Carrying more tools on his back, Long Xiao walked along the south gate of White Bird City towards the mine cave in the distance.

He had a map in his hand, which was set up by a thief who had been to the mine to sell it, but he didn't expect that the mine was still far away from White Sparrow City, and it would take more than forty minutes to walk.

Along the way, the grass is green and the trees are green, but it is a very good scenery. Leaving from the official road and turning east, this is the destination this time.

On the ground, you can often encounter all kinds of herbs, licorice, gastrodia, safflower, etc., and Long Xiao will not let go of them. So when he got to the mine, he had spent more than an hour, but the low-grade herbs in his backpack were a lot more abundant.

The cave was set up in front of a mountain wall, surrounded by a small wood, but covered with black ash. It looks like a pine tree, but it has been lowered by all kinds of dust, and you can see it from a long distance, and the terrain is very special.

In the interior of the black forest, there are patches of low-rise houses, all of which are dilapidated, and from time to time scrap of paper can float over.

Long Xiao grabbed a piece of paper and saw that it seemed to be a kind of announcement, what kind of terrifying creature appeared underground, blood demon and the like.

"Bloodseeker? Is this the reason why the mine cave became a zombie hole? ”

Long Xiao threw away the paper ball and secretly picked up the grass and looked around the mine. Between the ruins, turquoise-skinned zombies roam. These zombies have no weapons on their hands, and they all look sluggish, and their movements seem to be slow.

Suddenly, a hand grabbed the hem of Long Xiao's clothes and shouted, "Master Mage, please stay!" ”

Long Xiao was startled, and when he looked back, he saw an old man crawling on the ground, pulling his robe with his hand.

"Master Mage, are you going to go in and search for minerals? Those abominable survivors have taken my granddaughter captive, and I'm afraid it's ...... now Woo, Master Mage, can you help me go in and check if my granddaughter is still alive? If my granddaughter ...... If she is killed, please help her not to wander like a surviving person. ”

"Ding! Have you accepted a mission to find an elderly granddaughter? Quests reward a lot of experience and a small amount of money. ”

"Accept."

"Thank you, thank you!"

Long Xiao already wanted to go in, of course it didn't matter if he took on a task. However, it seems to be just an ordinary white task, and there is no difficulty. The rewards won't be too good either.

"Zombie, lv 15."

Seeing the information of the monster at the entrance of the mine, Long Xiao threw a fireball over.

“-180。”

The damage is okay, when he kills the ant hole, the general damage is less than two hundred and five. But after all, it's a level 13 monster, and it's normal for 15 to deal this damage.

The speed of zombies is very slow, and the blood is thick and the defense is thick, which is the most suitable for mage leveling.

Long Xiao's ice archery and fireball skills took turns, and soon a zombie fell to the ground.

"You get coarse cloth*1, muslin cloth*1."

It was a surprise that it dropped the tailoring material.

But come to think of it, it's not surprising that all humanoid monsters can drop cloth.

Originally, Long Xiao wanted to rush directly to the mine, but now he can drop cloth and clear the monster better. However, the zombies here can't get close, so why bother Long Xiao to clean them up one by one.

Flipping through the skill panel, sure enough, after reaching level 15, a group attack skill appeared. Yes, it costs 1 gold to learn this skill. In the end, 1 gold was gone, and he became a poor egg.

"Fire Dragon Technique: Dragon-shaped fire attack skill, instantaneous skill, cd5 seconds. Attacks eight nearby targets at once, dealing 50-100 damage. Consumes mp25. ”

Long Xiao threw all the extra experience of level 15 on the fire dragon technique in one go, and the fire dragon technique was upgraded to level three, the attack targets became twelve, the damage became 60-110, and the consumption also increased by 5 points.

Fortunately, the skills are still very domineering, and this is also worth his pitiful 1 gold.

Although this skill has exceeded the blue effect of Long Xiao, however, the skill is very powerful. It seems that the development route of fire mages in the future will be a high-output class.

Because of the long CD and the large consumption of attack skills, Long Xiao fired several ice archery techniques and fireballs in a row, gathered twelve remnant blood zombies, and then launched a fire dragon technique. Coupled with his various bonuses, the damage is only slightly less than the fireball technique of a single attack, which is very fast.

After more than ten minutes of strangulation, the zombies at the entrance of the mine were cleared. Long Xiao wiped the corpses one by one, picked up some fabrics, and exploded up to five copper plates, and nothing else. It seems that the Mine Zombies are only material-type monsters and do not drop treasures.

Finally entering the mine, Long Xiao casually picked up a torch from the entrance of the cave, and found the winding minecart track inside. The entrance to the cave was very deep, and when Long Xiao stepped into the white light curtain, the system prompted him to enter the first floor of the public dungeon zombie cave.

It's a public area, and everything is the same as the outside, except that it's like you're on a different map.

After Long Xiao came in, he saw zombies wandering one after another, and in addition, they were close to the wall, emitting flashes of light from time to time.

These flashes are different in color, and the mineral deposits are also different.

Most of the first layer is the most basic iron ore, copper ore. This is also what Long Xiao needs most now, after all, when making low-level equipment, he doesn't need other metals.

Fireball Ice Arrow Fire Dragon Technique, a set down, a piece of zombies fell. Cave monsters spawn slowly, enough to give him time to mine. Nowadays, most people are struggling with termite holes, or running on the way to termite holes. Life skills are rarely learned.

And so, the clanging sound sounded in the empty mine. Long Xiao mined no matter what kind of mine, anyway, he had a big backpack, and his tools were enough, absolutely enough.

After digging a full three hundred pieces of iron ore and copper ore, Long Xiao stopped the mine shovel.

The ore was enough for him to craft a large amount of equipment. During this period, the zombies brushed an unknown number of batches, and the coarse cloth and muslin in Long Xiao's backpack were enough to make low-level tailor products.

"The old man's granddaughter was not found...... Do you want to go up to the second floor to have a look? ”

Long Xiao frowned, the low-level monsters on the first level were already level 15, and they didn't know what the second level was.

Thinking of this, Long Xiao walked towards the innermost light curtain.

Behind the light curtain is a mining elevator, and after entering, it will be the second floor.

As soon as he came out, Long Xiao's eyes suddenly went dark. The white light flashed in Qi Brush, and hundreds of skills were thrown at him, so that poor Long Xiao turned into a soul state before he could stand firmly.

After floating out of the corpse, Long Xiao found that the monster in front of him was still a zombie, but some were holding a staff and some were holding a long sword, and they were divided into various professions. Moreover, the level of the monster is as high as level 18, and the density is also very large!

No wonder he died as soon as he appeared.

Long Xiao looked at the pile of ore that burst out around his corpse depressedly, it seems that next time he can't be so sloppy, it's better to resurrect quickly.

Running back from the cemetery, Long Xiao waited for a long time before he saw this group of level 18 zombies wandering to the other side. It turns out that there is only one zombie group on the second floor, and this zombie group will appear anywhere from time to time. When Long Xiao came down, they had just walked to the entrance of the cave, so they would directly kill Long Xiao in seconds.

Taking advantage of the fact that the zombie group had its back to him, Long Xiao hurriedly resurrected. Touching the equipment and materials that had fallen after hanging up next to him, he returned to the first floor in a puff of smoke.

After being safe, Long Xiao patted his heart and said secretly: "Huh...... It's better to be alive. ”

This is Long Xiao's first death, and I feel very deeply! In the future, you must pay attention to the fact that he has too many items on his body, and every time he dies, it is a big explosion, and it hurts too much.

At this moment, he noticed a clanging sound coming from the door of the first floor of the mine.

glanced at the real time, and before I knew it, I was playing until the early hours of the morning. Didn't expect that there were already players coming to the mine at this time?

Long Xiao glanced from the dark part of the mine, and it turned out to be an all-professional squad. There is a miner mining in the middle, and everyone else is on guard around. Once a zombie is spotted, the rest of the team swarms around and attacks the zombie.

After all, a zombie at level 15 is enough for players to drink a pot at this stage.

Long Xiao didn't want to cause trouble, so he ran over very quickly in a low-key manner.

"That was the player?"

"Oh my God, it's amazing that a person dares to break into a zombie hole!"

"It's just, it seems to be coming from the depths."

He's run out of pickaxes, and it's not too early, so it's time to head back to the city and hurry up to make a batch of equipment and items to sell before tomorrow arrives. Otherwise, the game will progress too fast, and time is money!

In the stunned gaze of this all-professional team, Long Xiao quickly flashed out of the mine.

The materials are finally ready, and now it's a hands-on job like moving bricks.

But before that, Long Xiao still has to eat a good meal. Although the body was sleeping, the hunger was still very strong.

He needs to go offline to replenish his fitness.

Standing in the hidden corner of White Bird City, Long Xiao said secretly: "Quitting the game." ”

Opening his eyes, Long Xiao glanced at the artificial moon outside the window. The surroundings are very quiet and you can't hear a hint of the city's irritability.

He touched his hungry belly, really, because he forgot the time of mining, he actually played so late.

At this time, there was no restaurant open, and he couldn't order takeout.

Do you want to eat the nourishing paste again?

Looking at the nutritional paste at the window and putting it in the box, Long Xiao gritted his teeth, forget it, if you don't eat it, you can starve to death. He didn't want to eat that kind of thing anymore.

Big deal, he went to the restaurant in the game to have a meal. Even if you are addicted to it, it is better than eating nutritional paste.

Just thinking about it, Long Xiao suddenly remembered.

He seems to have made a few steamed buns when he handed over the chef task, I wonder if he can directly synchronize them?

As soon as his heart moved, Long Xiao turned out his game backpack and took out the synchronizer.

"The buns are synchronizable and require the same amount of energy."

Equal energy?

Long Xiao frowned, and suddenly stared at the nutritional paste vending machine.

He threw in five gray coins, and jingle out five tubes of nourishing paste.

I don't know if this thing will work.

Long Xiao had no choice but to click on synchronization directly.

"Congratulations on your successful bun sync!"

Looking at the steaming bun that suddenly appeared in his hand, Long Xiao was ecstatic.

It really worked!
