A brave player who started by touching corpses

If Luke said that he was not nervous at this moment, he would be lying to himself.

After all, he was facing the corpses of monsters that were torn into pieces by the heroes.

Even though he was wearing a protective suit that covered his entire body, the visual impact, the touch when he attacked, and the unknown existence of foreign pathogens, every minute and every second was a challenge to Luke's worldview.

Even though this was not his first mission.

It might be embarrassing, but Luke's legs were still shaking uncontrollably.

There were factors of fear and adrenaline secretion. A few short missions were not enough for Luke to get used to everything in front of him.

You know, although Luke had watched a lot of heavy-tasting plasma B-level movies before he crossed over, the real corpses he saw the most and the ones that best fit the definition of "corpses" were just the pieces of animal meat hanging in the butcher shop.

In reality, Luke would instinctively take a detour when he saw rats being run over by wheels, not to mention these physically terrifying things in front of him.

But despite his fear, and even his physical disgust, Luke still started to clean up these corpses, no, they should be called corpses, together with other protective suits who came with him. After all, this was a dangerous job that he risked his life for some personal reasons.

Cleaner of the Brave Guild of Qixing City, Yellow Alliance.

In terms of social structure, technological development, terrain distribution, population and race, this world is very different from the Earth in the 21st century where Luke originally lived, and it is also more complicated. If you conduct a special investigation, it may take several days to understand the catalog.

For example, there is no country in the conventional sense here, but an alliance system.

Red, yellow, and blue, the three-color alliance.

Each alliance has a varying number of large autonomous cities under its command, and around the large cities, there are countless large and small residential areas.

Luke is currently in the city with the last number in the Yellow Alliance, the main city of Qixing City.

There are many common senses in this world that are far from the earth, but Luke has personally experienced the two most influential opposing existences.

Monsters, a group of terrible existences that are either visitors from other worlds, or mutated, or corrupted by external factors, causing great harm to human society.

Brave men, powerful existences that have gained power beyond mortals due to various unquantifiable factors and then chose to embark on the road of fighting monsters to protect humans.

Being attacked by monsters from time to time has become a commonplace for residents of various cities. When attacked, they will take shelter skillfully and wait for the city's Brave Men's Guild to deal with the incident. When the incident is over, they will continue to return to normal life, and the cycle will repeat.

Everyone has also gone from being full of negative emotions at the beginning to being indifferent now.

There is nothing to adapt to. Those who really can't adapt, if they are lucky, they can continue to survive, and those who are unlucky have already died in the monster's attack.

Ordinary people who cannot change the environment can only rely on the heroes stationed in the city.

The heroes who can fight monsters for a long time and survive certainly have their own unique features, but most of them will inevitably cause an unignorable impact on the surrounding environment while killing monsters.

The two most basic ones are "environmental damage" and "remaining corpses".

And Luke's "cleaner" job is to carry away the corpses left by the heroes after they did chivalrous deeds.

As for whether these corpses are directly destroyed or used for research, it has nothing to do with him, a small cleaner.

To be honest, this job is actually quite dangerous. It is the job with the highest accident rate among the subordinate departments of the Heroes Guild. The degree of danger of the monster corpse itself is completely unpredictable. After all, who knows what the source of power of these monsters is.

In the current situation where non-human fields such as artificial intelligence, robots, elemental servants, puppet prostheses, etc. have not yet been developed and popularized, cleaning up monster corpses can only be done by living people.

Those large bodies are taken care of by engineering vehicles such as bulldozers, while other small scattered bodies can only be collected manually by cleaners.

Because the danger of being a cleaner in the Brave Guild is not low, even if the treatment is really good and the compensation is very high, the employment rate is actually so-so. People who are not brave or are planning to exchange their lives for money are really not willing to be cleaners.

If there is a choice, who would risk their lives?

And as time goes by, for reasons that you know, I know, and everyone knows, many places of the Brave Guild have begun to become more inclined to recruit adults who can feed the whole family, or more directly, have no relatives to be cleaners.

After all, if they sacrificed, where the compensation money would eventually go is still up to the guild...

In fact, if it weren't for this reason, Luke, who came alone and had no social connections in this new world and was still an illegal resident, would not be able to be a cleaner.

Then, why did Luke take such a big risk to become a cleaner in the Brave Guild?

The first point is that money makes a hero fall. As an illegal immigrant, Luke really has no way to find a reasonable and legal source of income in a short period of time.

As for the second point...

Looking at the body in front of him that was broken in half, with a lot of internal organs in the stomach flowing all over the ground, Luke's chest was churning and his mouth was moving, but his eyes seemed reluctant to blink. He stared at this strange corpse with his eyes wide open, scanning every detail.

Red skin, short stature, hideous face, and a pair of broken demon wings behind it.

Luke was very sure that this thing was a red devil.

A red devil from "Ghosts 'n Goblins", the culprit that made countless players unable to see the first level BOSS Cyclops with their own eyes and could only regret halfway.

The red figure that suddenly appeared in the middle of the first level and ran all over the sky, and the scene of hitting Arthur and turning him into a skeleton, were deeply engraved in the hearts of every player who played Ghosts 'n Goblins.

Although at first glance this thing looks very similar to the red-skinned fallen demons in Diablo 2 who can only shout Rakanishu, many details on the corpse, such as the demon wings on the back and the head structure that is closer to that of a pterodactyl, make Luke more certain that it is a red demon, not a fallen demon.

You should know that this thing even has a trilogy of legends with itself as the protagonist!

It's just that the red demons in the game have indeed killed countless players, while the red demons here can only be turned into almost incomplete corpses with the efforts of the heroes in this city.

Judging from the fact that there is no metal armor or other equipment on the half corpse in front of him, this one should be just the lowest-level soldier in the entire red demon clan.

"Hey! New here! What are you still dawdling about? Hurry up and move!"

A big man who is obviously taller than an ordinary person and speaks like a leader of a cleaning team shouted at Luke who seemed to be in a daze.

This was obviously shouted at Luke who had just joined the company a few days ago.

Luke was startled by the roar and quickly moved. While holding the half body of the Red Devil with one hand, he roared softly as if exerting force.

The next second, the very fresh body of the Red Devil, which was already dead, suddenly gave people a sense of decay as if it had been dead for a long time.

At the same time, a short stick about 70 to 80 centimeters long bounced out from the half body of the Red Devil without any warning, but before it could bounce very high, it was grabbed by Luke's other hand, who was always prepared, and then disappeared directly in his hand.

It was as if nothing had happened.

The bloody body of the Red Devil was easily thrown by Luke onto the truck that had already been covered with pulp, but now he had no physical discomfort at all, because most of his attention had been attracted by the translucent data panel in front of him.

It was a panel that all Diablo 2 players were familiar with, integrating the equipment bar and the inventory bar. Among them, the newly acquired stick and some small bottles containing red and different single-color liquids were neatly stacked on the right side of the 4*10 grid inventory bar, and Luke was checking the newly acquired stick.

To be precise, it was a staff.

[Name: Short Stick]

[Type: Staff]

[Quality: Ordinary/White]

[Equipment Condition: None]

[Inlay Hole: 1]

[Attribute: Damage to Undead +50%]

[Additional Attributes: Fire Bomb +1, Ice Bomb +1, Lightning Bomb +1]

[Note: A witch's pioneering weapon. In addition to the store price far exceeding the character's own initial weapon, it has three complete bullets and can also meet your most basic needs for COSing the single Carl. 】

A Diablo II witch/magician's pioneering equipment, compared to the 1 gold staff that comes with the newly created character, it has two more missiles and an inlay socket... but the attribute panel in front of me is obviously quite different from the in-game attributes in Luke's memory.

For example, this short stick itself has no description of damage, nor any description of durability and attack speed, etc.

More importantly, behind the three skills attached to the short stick, fire bomb, ice bomb and lightning bomb, there is no text description of "only for mages"!

... Could it be that my broken barbarian panel can also be used! ?

Luke, who was a little disappointed about the mage equipment, couldn't help but raise his eyebrows.

Yes, that's right, after traveling to another world, the only thing that Luke, a helpless black household, can rely on is the 18th level barbarian panel in Diablo II that was opened on the laptop that was struck by lightning when he traveled through the rainy night.

But maybe the thunder was too strong, the barbarian panel inherited by Luke was shattered to pieces.

Not only was his level reduced to level 1, but the green suit "Xigang's full set of swords" inherited from the big account through the big box plug-in was also destroyed.

Even the three skill trees of the barbarian, with a total of 30 powerful skills with their own merits, were shattered to only two pitiful ones -

One is the "Search for Potion" which can be directly lit up after upgrading to Lv2 and obtaining skill points.

The other is the "Search for Items" which can only be lit up when the level is 12 in theory, but it is also lit up in advance like the search for potions.

And the three-bullet short stick in the inventory was the object that Luke had just roared out of the Red Devil by the "Find Item" he had released after consuming most of his energy.

As for why the monster units in "Ghosts 'n Goblins" dropped items from "Diablo 2", Luke had already found the answer from the mutated Barbarian's skills.
