Infinity Throne

But this bleak atmosphere only lasted one night.

The next day.

Li Erpang tried his best to keep his eyes wide open and looked at the prosperous scene in front of him. He was so shocked that he didn't say a word for a long time.

Blacksmith shops, weapon shops, grocery stores... have opened one after another.

The respective store owners shouted happily to several legendary "brave men and partners".

"Ah this? Why do I feel like the village chief's death was in vain?"

Li Erpang said naa.

Ning You shrugged helplessly: "This is the charm of the game world."

"Woof~"

Wang Tiandi barked, which was a wave of presence.

This small village located deep in the moonlight jungle may be small, but it has all the necessary organs.

There are all the shops you need.

Yo?

The goods sold are actually one level higher than those in Labu Town.

Yi Lin played with the new weapon she had just replaced not long ago.

…

【Iron Dagger】

【Rarity】D

【Category】Weapons

[Part] Main hand, deputy hand

[Attributes] Attack power +4 (main hand), attack power +2 (off hand)

[Effect] Heart rate +1%

【Durability】100/100

…

The attack power instantly increased by 4 times.

"Is it really worthy of being an RPG game? Changing weapons is more exaggerated than changing from shotgun to cannon. It completely implements a level-crushing system."

Yi Lin looked at the dazzling array of weapons on the weapons shop shelves, and her heart moved, but she was too embarrassed to take action.

And this in broad daylight is not good either.

Really, this is not good.

Somehow, after spending one night with these NPC villagers last night, even though these NPCs' actions and lines completely followed the rules of this game world, they looked completely new the next day. But last night's experience made Yi Lin feel like she was talking to real humans when she was talking to them.

"This game is so realistic!"

Li Erpang came to Yi Lin from the other side of the village after finishing shopping.

At this moment, he also changed his equipment.

I don't know where he got the money.

Should I say that I really deserve to be a "senior player"?

During the three days when Yi Lin was paddling in Labu Town, Li Erpang actually completed a bunch of small tasks in Labu Town with the fastest efficiency despite losing his memory. No matter in terms of level or money, Yi Lin was not beaten down. How much.

What you need to know is that Yi Lin is...ahem in Labu Town.

In short, Li Erpang's actions and expressions seemed to be speaking.

No one knows the game better than him.

now.

Li Erpang is well aware of the importance of health and defense in this turn-based game world. Coupled with the direction of adding points from God, he is determined to be a pure tank.

That kind of... I stand there and let the wind and monsters hit me, but the fat man remains unmoved and his health bar does not drop.

"Hehehe, as long as the monster can't kill me, Fatty can kill the monster even with a little grinding."

Li Erpang said so.

But Yi Lin hit the spot where Li Erpang's output was insufficient with one sentence.

"What if you encounter a BOSS with a high output and the ability to regenerate health on its own? If you don't wear him to death, the durability of your equipment will be lost first. By then, you won't be able to escape even if you want to."

"How, how could there be such an outrageous BOSS, Hun Dan! No matter how outrageous the game is, it still pays attention to the player's gaming experience, okay? This game company must not be complained to the point of bankruptcy?"

Li Erpang suddenly felt guilty when he heard Yi Lin's words, but after thinking about it, it shouldn't be possible for such an outrageous BOSS to appear, no, never!

Yi Rin had a dagger hanging on her waist.

He thought carefully for a while and then walked to the grocery store.

The owner of the grocery store looked familiar.

After all, Yi Lin had seen it at the bonfire party last night.

However, except for gender and age, these NPCs were almost all sallow and thin, and their modeling was almost the same. It was difficult for Yilin to distinguish these villagers one by one.

And it’s not necessary.

"Welcome, Lord Brave."

The grocery store merchant greeted Yi Lin happily, and then while there was no one around, he sneaked closer and whispered: "Master Brave, I can secretly give you a discount!"

Yi Lin couldn't help but laugh when she saw the grocery store merchant's human expression.

I was even more embarrassed to take action.

When the simple grocer finished saying this, he felt a shudder on his back and subconsciously trembled.

At that moment, he always felt like he had inadvertently avoided some kind of bad luck.

Yi Lin shook her head and quickly scrolled through the grocer's sales list.

After taking a look at all the items for sale, Yi Lin's eyes lit up.

"Intermediate crystal energy vial?"

Labu Town is truly a novice village.

The things sold inside are all of the lowest quality, bar none.

The blood-recovery and mana-recovery props sold in Moonlight Jungle are a level higher in efficiency than the "low-level series" sold in Labu Town.

A low-level crystal energy vial can restore 20 crystal energy points at a time.

The intermediate crystal energy vial can restore 50 crystal energy points at a time.

This is a turn-based game.

No matter what props are used, one round of action is required.

The recovery efficiency of one bottle is worth two bottles. If the player can take one more action, it is equivalent to using one more skill or slashing the monster one more time. No matter how you think about it, it is all earned with blood.

Although the style of this game looks light-hearted and ridiculous, Yi Lin always remembers that this is a TikTok game that cannot die. Once the health value is zero, you will rise to the sky where you are, and there is no room for bargaining.

In addition, because of the hidden mission of the "Moonlight Wolf King" and the ancient prophecies passed down from generation to generation, all the villagers regarded Yi Lin as a savior, which was a sufficient discount.

The same goes for the weapons shop owner.

Yi Lin was not polite and bought all the gold coins he had on [Intermediate Crystal Energy Vials], leaving nothing behind.

Looking at the bottles and jars in the [props], Yi Lin silently calculated in her heart.

After counting, Yi Lin looked back at the smiling grocer and couldn't help but ask:

"Actually, why don't you leave this moonlight jungle? The world is so big, you don't want to go out and see?"

"go out?"

The grocer looked stunned for a moment, then quickly shook his head.

He smiled softly and said: "This is our root. If our roots are here, where else can we go!"

Yi Lin: "..."

Li Erpang finished shopping and came from a distance.

He just happened to hear the conversation between Yi Lin and the businessman, curled his lips, and lowered his voice casually and said: "Hey, what's so confusing about this? It's just the setting of the game. Have you ever seen an NPC who can leave his post and wander around at will? This unscientific."

Li Erpang looked like no one knows the game better than me, and educated Yi Lin in a tone of hatred: "In a normal game setting, even the final BOSS, such as the big devil, is Staying peacefully in the Demon King's Castle, silently waiting for players to reach enough levels, kill them, and be kicked off."

"This is the fate of NPCs!"

"Yeah?"

Yi Lin lowered his head, thoughtfully.

"Huh? Why are you laughing?"

Li Erpang, who was feeling out of place, suddenly saw the corner of Yi Lin's mouth tilted and couldn't help but ask.

Yi Lin subconsciously touched the corners of his mouth with an indifferent expression: "Did I laugh?"

"You smiled."

"I'll tell you a secret."

Yi Lin really smiled now.

"What?"

"Your eyesight is really bad. Remember to keep your eyes wide when you look at things."

"..."

I'm so wide-eyed, okay?

It's early morning.

After the preparations were completed, the group gathered again at the entrance of the village.

Ning You hesitated for a moment, but couldn't help but express his worries: "Actually, we don't have to do this hidden task."

In fact, what he wants to say more is, if you, the "protagonist", die, how can the plot continue?

Ning You knows it very well.

As the "key" person in each trial, that is, the protagonist, he does not really have invincible luck and will not die no matter what happens.

There are also "protagonists" who try too hard to die and actually die.

At the very least, Ning You had encountered it before.

Then the plot completely fell apart.

That time Ning You's evaluation was also a mess.

Ning You rarely predicts events this time, and with a little bit of luck, he found the key person in this trial in front of the other "three apostles who have not yet appeared". He does not want this perfect start to be ruined by the protagonist himself. Seeking death.

As the "little friend of the protagonist", Ning You, who has rich experience and superb acting skills, has quickly stepped into this role and made reasonable but not excessive suggestions to the brave protagonist.

Yi Lin smiled: "I didn't say that I must complete this hidden side mission. After all, you only live once. Besides, even the rewards are 'unknown'. The risks and benefits of this mission cannot be measured, and there is not enough certainty. I won't take any chances."

Li Erpang was stunned.

do not know why.

He obviously lost his memory.

He didn't seem to recognize this kid either.

But Li Erpang always had the illusion that when this kid used this tone, this expression, and said these words... he shouldn't be able to believe even a single punctuation mark.

"Why do I have this illusion?"

Li Erpang lowered his head and fell into deep thought.

Gouzi twisted his mouth and bared his teeth, also lost in thought. His expression was very similar to Li Erpang.

Ning You and Xiao Chuer did not notice the emotional changes of Li Erpang and Wang Tiandi.

They just saw Li Erpang and a dog lowering their heads at the same time, and they didn't know what they were looking at.

Since Yi Lin, as the "protagonist", said so, Ning You no longer stopped him.

But not worried either.

On the contrary, I felt relieved.

This protagonist seems very sensible.

He is not the type who is blindly passionate or cowardly and will only seek death!

This time, the customs clearance trial is stable!

At least it has an S-level rating, right?

All they have to do is follow the plot!

Don't drop the chain!

Several people were ready to go and gathered at the entrance of the village.

Knowing that the "brave and friends" were about to leave the village to fight against the "Moonlight Wolf King", all the villagers gathered together and gathered around the entrance of the village.

Even the shop owners abandoned their shops and ran out to join the farewell procession.

The new village chief turned out to be the little boy who supported the old village chief last night and reported the funeral immediately after the old village chief's death.

His name is Aub, and he is the grandson of the old village chief.

After the old village chief died, he became the village chief.

But the village chief does not have any special powers in this village. Instead, he has the mission to pass on the prophecy from generation to generation.

But having said that, the mission they had passed down from generation to generation, the legendary brave man they had been looking forward to today, the position of village chief Orb, was actually in name only and did not have much meaning.

All the villagers, including the new village chief Orb, looked at the backs of the brave man and his group as they walked away, their eyes filled with tears. They said goodbye with tears and shouted one after another:

"Master Brave, Master Dog, and friends of the Brave, you must come back alive!"

"We must survive!"

"Definitely!"

"You must not die!"

"You must not die!"

"I really, really, really can't die!"

Li Erpang listened to the deep concern behind him with a dull expression. For some reason, he felt a cold swishing behind him.

"Why do I feel like something doesn't sound right about these words?"

Ning You curled his lips helplessly.

Aren't these villagers so ungrateful?

These flags come out casually, one by one, and there are so many of them that they can fill a grave, okay!

Ning You feels that the tone of this game is a bit weird.

But there was no other way. This was the case in this trial. He could only ignore the flags that kept popping up behind him and concentrate on killing monsters.

Four people and one dog, after resting in the village for a night, re-entered the jungle.

After arriving at the monster spawning area, no one dared to be careless. Li Er, who was fat and thick-skinned, carried the newly purchased iron shield in front of him, not daring to show his anger for fear of disturbing the BOSS in the jungle.

Their plan is clear.

Spawn monsters!

At present, the level difference between them and the BOSS is too big.

If you go and defeat the BOSS now, you will have a narrow escape from death.

Before the mission time limit comes, brush as many monsters as possible to increase the level.

At that time, see if there is a possibility of defeating the BOSS, and then make further plans.

If it really doesn't work...

Then give up.

"Isn't it just a game?"

Li Erpang thought silently in his heart.

…

…

[Location] Gaia, Moonlight Jungle.

[Time] March 3, 3333 in the Cloud Calendar, afternoon.

[Weather] Cloudless.

[Characters] Brave Team.

…

"Attention please!"

"DPS, keep up! The little monster on the left has red blood! Fuck him——"

"You guys are not good at DPS this time! Fatty, I've been beaten a lot!"

In the aperture.

Li Erpang carried an iron shield and withstood waves of monster attacks.

He awakened... uh no, God's Gift Point clicked on a new skill.

It can add a layer of defense BUFF to the team, which is extremely awesome.

Li Erpang felt as if he had become the leader of the entire team, his voice was much louder, and he looked awesome.

Can brush the monster all morning.

They gain little experience.

There is no other reason.

As their levels rise, their levels have far exceeded the leveling range of Moonlight Jungle. This kind of crushing monster spawning is not very efficient.

Ning paddled happily on your right side, feeling a little confused.

"It's strange. The level setting of monsters in this moonlight jungle is extremely unreasonable."

It was Xiao Chuer's turn. Xiao Chuer whipped the moonlight wolves on the opposite side. After the round was over, she had time to intervene and asked: "Why is it unreasonable?"

Ning You chuckled and casually clicked on the normal attack...

BIU hit the ground, and Ning You flew out and poked a small monster out with a sword. After that, he turned back and explained: "According to the general game settings, in a leveling area, the level of the monster It should increase linearly.”

"But we have been farming here for a while. Although these mobs can match the monster levels of the 'Rabu Basin' and fluctuate between LV9-LV14, monsters above LV14 are basically untouchable."

Xiao Chuer obviously doesn't play games very much, so she didn't understand what Ning You said: "So what?"

"You still don't understand? It's true that the Moonlight Wolf King is the BOSS of this leveling area, but its level is so high that we can't even read it. And what the old village chief said means that tonight' On a full moon night, the Wolf King will further evolve..."

"In the Moonlight Jungle, after our level exceeds the average level of this leveling area, the experience gained is greatly reduced. I roughly calculated it. Even if we keep swiping these mobs all the time, if we want to survive today Before it’s too late, it will be almost impossible to reach a level where you can reliably defeat the BOSS.”

"If this was a mission with no time limit, that would make sense, but it is limited to 24 hours. With all due respect, this hidden side mission cannot be resurrected, repeatedly defeat the BOSS, and understand the BOSS mechanism. Otherwise, it would be absolutely impossible to complete this task.”

Li Erpang stood up against the monster.

He originally wanted to complain about the couple spreading dog food while paddling in the water.

But when I heard this, I felt it made sense.

"That makes sense. In that case, isn't it a waste of time for us to farm monsters here?"

"Indeed." Ning You glanced at Yi Lin, who had been silent, with a few questions flashing in his mind, but he did not hide his thoughts. Instead, he said softly with a bit of temptation: "This level gap , if it is really in a game, it will undoubtedly bring a serious sense of "fragmentation" to the players, which will greatly affect the players' gaming experience. Unless..."

Ning You put on an expression like "I have something I don't know whether to say or not."

"Unless what?" Li Erpang asked bluntly.

"Unless this game was never intended for people to play."

Ning You expressed his thoughts.

Li Erpang thought for a moment and was suddenly surprised: "Is this the legendary way of making pictures with your heart and playing games with your feet?"

Xiao Chuer chuckled, amused by Li Erpang's words.

Under the turn-based level crushing mechanism, a few people can no longer gain much experience.

But after all, there is still.

Not long ago, a golden light fell on Li Erpang's head, and he finally reached LV14.

After LV14, the experience earned by crushing the monsters in this jungle is nothing compared to the experience required for upgrading.

With easy paddling, several people brushed off a few more waves of monsters.

Li Erpang skillfully carried a hammer behind him.

One handed hammer.

This is a weapon not sold in Novice Village.

Since it was not a novice weapon, it gave Li Erpang the feeling that it was much more powerful. He resolutely chose this domineering weapon, and combined it with a shield, intending to defeat this game.

Please call me... Li Fat Hammer!

After using it, Li Erpang felt a lot more comfortable.

On the way to find strange things.

Li Erpang narrowed his eyes at Yi Lin, who was almost spotless, and finally couldn't help but voice the question that had been lingering in his heart for a long time.

"Rather than the sense of separation you mentioned, what I find more strange is that, have you noticed that the monster seems to only hit us and not him?"

Li Erpang pointed at Yi Lin.

The words just fell.

Ning You, Xiao Chuer, and Wang Tiandi were stunned at the same time.

With that being said, it seems to be true!

"Really?" Yi Lin's expression was very 'surprised'. He lowered his head and thought for a moment before replying: "Ouch? I really didn't notice it if you didn't tell me. But... I guess it has something to do with the face?"

Xiao Chuer looked at Li Erpang, then at Yi Lin, and couldn't help but nodded in agreement.

I, I, I face your sister!

Li Erpang was angry.

This is not convincing at all, okay?

"And every time you activate a monster, it doesn't move in the first round. What's going on?"

"That's the style of an assassin. After a round of rest, the damage in the next round will increase by a certain percentage. Make a decision before moving, and act first before attacking. If the enemy doesn't move, I won't move. If the enemy moves, I will move again. This is a true assassin. . A real assassin must be as steady as an old dog. Monsters can pass by without even a leaf touching them. As a senior player, you don’t even understand this basic assassin gameplay?"

Yi Lin chuckled, with contempt hidden in his tone.

Although the story is a bit long.

But the translation seems to be: you don't understand assassins at all.

When Li Erpang heard this, his eyes widened.

Ah this?

Listen...it seems to make sense!

He was convinced.

Ning You and Xiao Chuer nodded secretly.

"You really deserve to be the protagonist."

Right now.

Wang Tiandi suddenly tilted his mouth with a strange expression, huffed and stuck out his tongue, ran wildly, and got into the woods.

The exact identity of this dog is open to debate. But it stayed in the team obediently and worked hard to deal with monsters. Everyone, including Li Erpang, regarded Wang Tiandi as Yi Lin's pet.

As soon as Emperor Wang Tian left, Li Erpang, Ning You, and Xiao Chuer looked at Yi Lin at the same time, as if waiting for an explanation.

Yi Lin didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "Wait a minute, what do you mean by looking at me like this?"

"Why did your dog run away so quickly?"

Yi Lin shook his head: "How do I know? Maybe I just went to the bathroom. This game is so realistic, do you think it's weird to take a break to go to the bathroom in the middle?"

This explanation...

There seems to be nothing wrong with it!

Although the three of them always felt that a dog was hiding to go to the toilet... something seemed a little weird.

But this dog's IQ is far beyond that of ordinary dogs, and its output is not weak. Furthermore, this is a magical game world. No matter how strange things happen, they can be reasonably explained in the game.

Anyway, the levels of the mobs around them have been completely crushed by them, so there is no pressure. One more dog is not a lot, and one less dog is not a lot. After Yi Lin explained, Li Erpang and the other three did not pay too much attention to it. Instead, they took the time. Continue to use your face to knock away the monsters around you, and gain experience points like crazy.

While brushing monsters.

Xiao Chuer said: "I thought about it carefully and found that there is really no need for us to pursue this hidden side mission. No matter how high the reward is or how hidden it is, it is still a branch after all."

Li Erpang shook his head: "What Miss Xiao said is a bit unprofessional. You don't understand the word 'hide' and its appeal to elite players. Once it has anything to do with 'hide', it's usually... Super skills, god-level equipment, no matter how bad things are, there are massive experience rewards, which are definitely not comparable to ordinary side tasks."

Xiao Chuer ignored Li Erpang.

She looked at Ning You.

Ning You smiled and said: "He actually makes sense. Under normal circumstances, it is indeed true. But don't forget, 'we' are trapped in this damn game now. Once we die, then But it’s really dead. It’s different from ordinary games. The most serious death penalty in ordinary games is just downgrading and losing equipment. Here...you will lose your life.”

Li Erpang fell silent for a moment.

This makes sense.

He couldn't argue.

Who spares his life?

No matter how awesome the equipment is, no matter how high the level is, you still have to live to enjoy it, right?

Li Erpang has also not forgotten that the ultimate goal of his wanting to escape this game is to find the reason for being 'trapped' and a way to 'leave' this game world.

Equipment, skills, and experience points are all nothing compared to "reality".

After all, everything here is virtual.

Ning You added: "So what Master... what brother Yilin said makes sense. We don't need to take risks. We should try our best to gain experience and see if we can reach a level close to the 'Moonlight Wolf King' before the time limit. At that time, we will carefully weigh the pros and cons, weigh the risks and benefits, and then decide whether to complete this hidden mission. After all, there is no punishment for failing the mission."

After finishing speaking eloquently, Ning You asked subconsciously: "You think so, right? Brother Yi Lin."

No one answered.

"Brother Yi Lin?"

Still no one answered.

Li Erpang: "..."

Xiao Chuer: "..."

Air:"……"

Ouranos: "..."

A full ten seconds later.

Li Erpang suddenly woke up and cursed: "F*ck! When did that kid disappear?!"

Ding!

Right now.

Li Erpang, Ning You, and Xiao Chuer received a notification at the same time.

…

…

at the same time.

Deep in the moonlight jungle.

[‘Wang Tiandi’ has left the team. 】

【You have left the team. 】

Yi Lin knelt down and touched Wang Tiandi's dog's head with a smile: "I'm very curious as to why you helped me."

"Woof~"

Wang Tiandi swung his tail vigorously.

The tail flicks very fast.

Even afterimages were thrown out.

On the spiral tail, there are circles of small cyclones.

I dont understand.

Yi Lin opened the [Props]. In the props column, there was a brand new [Iron Dagger] lying in the grid.

Yi Lin took out the [Iron Dagger] and equipped it in the [Off Hand] position in the equipment slot.

"Indeed, this mission is a bit strange. According to the normal leveling speed, after the player level crushes the monster, with that small amount of experience, it will be difficult to reach LV20 before tonight to safely defeat this BOSS."

"In other words, this BOSS was not designed to be killed safely."

"I won't take risks without being sure enough. But what if I am sure?"

Yi Lin upgraded from LV10 to LV15 and gained 5 more God-given points.

He ordered separately——

[Spirit +0.1].

[Agility +0.2].

[When equipped with a dagger, the heart rate will be +2%].

[When equipped with a dagger, the heart rate will be +2%].

These four are attribute bonuses and increased "knowledge rate".

The LV15 God-given skill is...
