669 The first shot for a newbie

“Captain, are we fine like this?” Zheng xinyun asked.

After hearing Zhao Xu’s suggestion, Zheng xinyun agreed without even considering the risks involved.

when zhao xu had first sent her the message of ” earth’s destruction ” through his ” divine power, ” zheng xinyun had grown to a mature stage in just one month because she realized that the future of her parents and relatives rested on her shoulders.

After losing her memory, Zheng xinyun had returned to the energetic nature of an 18-year-old girl. She was extremely excited when she heard that she could leave the prison-like room and go out for a walk.

At this time, the two of them had reached the edge of the camp area. This was a specially-opened isolation zone. Ordinary civilians would not come here with their bare hands. Only adventurers would visit.

“Don’t worry, I’m here.” Zhao Xu comforted her.

this time, he was basically taking zheng xinyun with him to make up for the most basic knowledge of adventuring, and he could be called to the abyss by antonya at any time.

Therefore, after some consideration, he decided to take the risk at the edge of the camp, which was only a hundred kilometers away from Yannan.

Although the sky was completely covered by a dark cloud, the adventurers in the camp still came to the edge of the high alert area in an endless stream.

Because of the high proportion of adventurers and the flow of people returning from their adventures, this alert area had become a business district for adventurers.

Due to the loss of the Lifestone, many adventurers were still cautious and recruited as many people as possible to go on adventures, even though taking risks was a very high-paying act.

Many adventurer teams in the high alert area even shouted their target candidates on the spot.

“Captain, why are there so many teams carrying large and small bags? are we going to walk around for a while and come back? Or are you going to form a team with these adventurers?”

Zheng xinyun immediately noticed the difference between them and the other teams.

Even though Zhao Xu was wearing quite a lot of adventurer gear at the moment, including a priest’s robe, a mage’s robe, and a cloak, he only had a simple backpack on his back, which couldn’t fit anything at all.

And she was only wearing the flying angel Armor that Zhao Xu had given her.

The armor itself glowed with a golden light. It was an extremely light +3 chain armor, and together with the defense of the chain armor, it could provide a full level 8 armor defense.

The key was that this ” flying armor ” was a light armor. It weighed no more than ten Jin, not even as heavy as the school bags of some primary school students.

At the same time, it could also activate ” flight ” once a day. It was indeed worthy of its market value of 22400 gold coins.

they’re taking precautions against a possible storm, so they brought simple tents, blanket sleeping bags, and so on. Zhao Xu explained, ” but I have spells, so we don’t have to bring any.

At this moment, a poet suddenly walked over from a team of more than ten people and asked.

“Friend, do you mind going on an adventure with us?”

we plan to hunt a certain number of animals before the storm hits. We’ll use them as food reserves for the upcoming storm.

A male poet with golden hair and white teeth glanced at Yoo ‘er’s golden armor and realized it was definitely a magic item.

At the same time that he revealed an envious look, he also hurriedly said, ” our harvest of animal ingredients will be gathered together, and then 80% will be divided equally among people, and 20% will be distributed to the people who perform well in the operation.

look, the two of you didn’t bring any tents, but us adventurers carried the tents in batches with heavy weights. There’s still space for a few sleeping bags, which is just right for you.

As he spoke, he glanced at the other adventurer teams in the high alert area. the other teams may have better conditions than us, but their tents may not be big enough. Besides, many teams are all men. You’re worried too, right? ”

“If you join us, your girlfriend will be able to squeeze with our female team members.”

After hearing the poet’s explanation, Zhao Xu finally understood.

Compared to the level of threat he faced from the outer Gods an hour ago …

At this time, the risky operation that the poet. Mentioned was just a ” hunting ” trip.

He was immediately filled with the most simple and unadorned atmosphere.

No one knew when the heavy rain would come, but once it did, it would certainly paralyze the operation of the camp.

Although the food reserves had been allocated in advance, no one could predict how long the storm would last.

This was also the reason why these adventurers still went out to hunt despite knowing that the current situation was not conducive to going out. They all had to prepare for ” winter ” in advance.

The other party’s adventurer team had also been pieced together for this reason.

The reason why they were invited was naturally because of the magic armor that Zheng xinyun was wearing.

Zhao Xu couldn’t help but want to Pat himself on the head.

He wanted to train Zheng xinyun’s ability to take risks, so even though he had hundreds and thousands of magic items in his inventory, he only gave Yun ‘er a ” Tianxiang armor “.

Zhao Xu wanted to train her.

If he could not experience the sense of life and death by simply activating the Wushuang, then there was no point in training.

However, he did not expect that a magic armor that was not eye-catching in his eyes would still make Yoona the ‘Big Boss’ in the high alert area, and other teams would take the initiative to recruit her.

Zheng xinyun also turned her head away and waited excitedly for Zhao Xu’s reply.

“Sure.” Zhao Xu thought about it for a bit before agreeing.

Simply capturing wild beasts might really be more suitable for Yoan’s current scale.

It was also a good opportunity for him to introduce the basics of wilderness survival to her.

When the poet saw that Zhao Xu had accepted the suggestion without even bargaining, he couldn’t help but be overjoyed. He quickly introduced the two of them to the leader of the team-a level 3 warrior, dachui cook.

After a round of introductions and an explanation of the team’s adventure goal, the team hurriedly set off and tried to return before the storm after getting no objections.

“Both of you are out on an adventure. Are you not going to care about the elderly and children at home?” The Rogue at the front glanced at Zhao Xu and the other man and asked.

He could be considered a smart person in the camp and knew many adventurers, but he had no impression of the two, so he took the opportunity to ask questions and gossip.

“Come on, didn’t you see that Xiaoyun is as young as a high school student? the two of them are just a couple. Where would there be a child?” the female ranger retorted.

She was initially depressed after giving birth and was persuaded by her husband to enter the game Arthur. Who would have thought that it would be a blessing in disguise?

The leading warrior was her husband, and the couple was the only ones in the team who were both over 30 years old.

Zhao Xu and Zheng xinyun had really made a name for themselves in this camp because of the goddess ‘miracle, so they simply used their codenames-little Xia and little Yun.

sister LAN, I’ve already said it twice. We’re not a couple. We’re just going on an adventure together. Zheng xinyun explained.

“Hehe, I understand, I understand.” The forest patroller, sister ke LAN, laughed.

“Yoona, which Arthur force or player’s Guild did you belong to? Our old Tang persisted on his account until he transmigrated, but the magic items he had on him were not as expensive as yours. Or does he have some family connections?”

Those who dared to come out of the camp at this time to risk their lives were at least meticulous people who had a third of the plan in their hands.

Just from this step, everyone could tell that Xiaoyun had no experience in taking risks.

Naturally, it was impossible for her to get this magic armor that looked like it cost thousands of dollars.

The conversation was full of probing.

“My equipment was given to me by the captain.” Zheng xinyun said frankly.

“Oh?”

suddenly, everyone looked over at zhao xu and realized that this man who had been silent all this while was the real deal.

Zhao Xu had used the ‘magic aura concealment’ spell from the very beginning to make the dozen or so magic items that were exposed look very plain, and he had even put away the Ain stone on top of his head.

Even a detection spell wouldn’t be able to find anything.

“It seems like you’re taking a risk with your sister. Friend, you must be quite capable.” The Rogue in front praised directly.

“you’re too kind,” Zhao Xu didn’t say much.

In fact, he had even planned to create some ” dangers ” to give Zheng xinyun a field surprise attack lesson.

At this time, the leader, warrior cook, said, ” since everyone is here, it’s fate that brought us together. Why don’t you tell us the characteristics of the monsters we might encounter in the wild and complement each other? ” This way, we won’t be wasting our time gathering as a team.”

When they heard Cook’s suggestion, everyone immediately responded in high spirits.

In fact, a more obvious way to judge whether one had entered a circle was to see if they had ” exchanged information ” and if they could know some gossip in the circle.

In the circle, everyone had their own ” information advantage ” based on their own class and career. Everyone also needed other people’s ” information.

Naturally, this kind of ” information ” was the ticket and bargaining chip in the circle.

If he just wanted more, he wouldn’t be brought along to the gathering.

The biggest difference between the players and the civilians was that they had formed a closed loop ‘circle’.

The civilians did not have any valuable information to provide to the players, but the players could complement each other.

As the highest level player in the team, warrior cook could provide the most information.

Of course, he was at a disadvantage, so his suggestion was immediately responded to by everyone.

even if they didn’t gain anything from this trip, it was still worth it to know some information about the monsters.

The honest-looking Kuck said, ” why don’t the two new members go first, and I’ll bring up the rear.

When Zhao Xu heard this, he couldn’t help but raise his eyebrows.

Naturally, no one would repeat what their predecessors had said.

Therefore, they could say that they would definitely have the advantage, or even use some old information to fool them. As the leader, although cook was serious, he took care of the two of them.

Since cook had designated the two of them as the first and second, he could only place himself last to balance the crowd.

Elder sister ke LAN immediately sensed her husband’s intention. She just glanced at him lightly, thinking to herself, ” who asked you to be a good person.

“Since that’s the case, I’ll finish explaining everything along with Xiaoyun’s share.”

Zhao Xu knew that this was also a good opportunity for Yoona to teach him on the spot.

What he revealed to these players, they would naturally share with others, and these strategies would naturally be spread out.

Just as everyone thought that he was thinking about something, Zhao Xu used his knowledge (geography) skill to understand the distribution of monsters in the area.

berserk rats. These creatures are much larger than ordinary rats. They are small, agile, and large in number, but they can’t withstand players ‘trampling to death. It’s enough to prevent them from breaking through the front line and directly facing the mages. Also, be careful of the diseases transmitted by their bites.

When everyone heard Zhao Xu’s introduction, they all nodded.

Due to the large number of berserk rats, it could be said that in the past few weeks, they had been served at the tables of many players. They could be considered a rare meat supplement.

the other party’s introduction was quite decent.

But Zhao Xu wasn’t just like that.

“as for gnomes and houndhead men, there aren’t many of them in the wildlands, but there are still some. they often come in groups and are good at long-range attacks. they are not a threat in a one-on-one fight, but a round of javelin and crossbow arrows is enough to kill even our small team.”

“It’s best to Scout ahead. I can cut the watermelons one by one with sleep. I’m just afraid that they’re scattered and it’s difficult to clean up. however, as long as it’s close to my body, it shouldn’t be a problem.”

“but you have to be aware that they are quite intelligent. the traps in the wild are often set up by these creatures, so they can use long weapons to explore the way and jump in the air when necessary.”

zhao xu only said a few words and didn’t say anything to boast about it, but everyone already understood.

The person standing in front of them was probably an experienced ” team commander “!

Shouldn’t such an expert be with the entire adventurer team? They actually ran into each other?

Everyone looked at Zhao Xu expectantly.

Even cook couldn’t help but ask, ” how should I deal with them if I encounter them? I’m asking what tactics are useful?”

zhao xu couldn’t help but frown. he really hadn’t encountered this many times.

Because these levels were too low, he had never taken them seriously ever since he came out on an adventure.

Fortunately, he immediately recalled his past life’s adventure and immediately explained.

“Most of them are poor, so there’s no need to go berserk. It’s not difficult to deal with them. The other option was to cut in at a high speed and ensure that one would be able to kill one with a charge while threatening the other at the same time, ending the battle quickly. Or, we can attack with full defense and take advantage of the opponent’s low accuracy.”

as for orcs, their equipment is better, and it’s hard for a small team to block them. Fortunately, they have poor alertness, and they don’t move in large groups during the day because they’re afraid of the light. Therefore, they keep a distance and use long-range attacks or Spears to counterattack. It’s very effective.

at the same time, orcs like to group up. Color spray and sleep spells are very effective.

“However, these three types are all considered to be gifted. They’re easy to evolve, and it’s difficult to identify them if they’re hidden in the team. Kobold warlocks, Goblin Wanderers, and orc barbarians were the three major players ‘killers when they were at a low level. if you’re not careful, even a level-5 warrior might be killed by a kobold warlock’s magic missile storm.”

As he spoke, Zhao Xu started to size up Zheng xinyun.

these monsters have a hobby of capturing prisoners, so if they are really caught, suicide is a better way.
