Killing will permanently increase real damage, how do you deal with it?

Xu Lai was in this dark and mysterious forest, thinking about his next plan. His fingers gently stroked the hard and cold scales of the black-armored demon lizard, feeling its presence in the shadow. At this moment, an idea flashed through his mind: because the blood line has no refresh times, he does not want to look for those fierce BOSS-level monsters, but decides to take this loyal black-armored demon lizard and continue to explore the unknown adventure deeper.

"If it were an ordinary player, in such a dangerous environment, I'm afraid he would have died without a complete body, and even the body might not be left intact." Xu Lai couldn't help but secretly rejoice that although he had experienced an inexplicable super-turn, he still had strong attributes, enough to deal with this dangerous forest. A sense of pride surged in his heart, as if he was a brave knight on a fearless journey.

Just as Xu Lai was immersed in his thoughts and planning the next move, a noisy voice suddenly came from a distance, as if a group of adventurers were walking towards this side, the voice was sometimes high-pitched, sometimes low, mixed with a bit of excitement and nervousness. Xu Lai's heartbeat accelerated, and he stopped vigilantly, quickly signaled the black-armored demon lizard to hide, and he cleverly hid behind a thick tree, thinking secretly about the purpose of this group of people.

Through the gaps between the leaves, he saw a group of adventurers slowly staggering over, and the footsteps were particularly clear in the silent forest. The leader was a burly warrior with a resolute face. He held a huge sword in his hand, and the sword body flashed cold light under the sunlight, which seemed to indicate his powerful strength and fearless momentum, as if nothing in this forest could stop his steps.

Behind him, followed a priest in a white robe. The priest's face was gentle and firm. He held a glimmering holy staff in his hand, as if providing some kind of mysterious protection for the team. Following closely behind was a wizard, shaking his staff in his hand. The staff was inlaid with bright crystals, emitting a faint and mysterious light, as if preparing for the upcoming battle. Beside them, there were two players dressed as rangers, with agile figures and vigilant eyes, ready to deal with sudden dangers at any time.

"Do you think we are really on the right path?" The priest frowned, with a bit of worry and uneasiness on his face, as if he was full of doubts about the next adventure. His voice was low and slightly trembling, as if he was conveying his uneasiness to his teammates.

"Don't worry, Jasmine, we have a map." The warrior patted his chest confidently, his voice was as loud as a bell, with a hint of firm belief. There was a gleam of confidence in his eyes, as if telling his teammates that as long as he was there, nothing could stop them.

"Besides, although this forest is dangerous, it hides a lot of treasures. If we are lucky, we may be able to pick up some good equipment." The warrior's words revealed a hint of excitement and expectation, as if he had seen those glittering treasures waiting for their arrival. An excited smile appeared on his face, as if he was describing a beautiful picture.

"But Tie, I always feel that something is wrong..." The mage's voice was a little trembling, and his eyes wandered around, as if he was uneasy about the atmosphere of this forest. He frowned slightly, his heart full of doubts and vigilance, as if warning himself and his teammates that danger might be lurking not far away.

Xu Lai quietly observed them, secretly thinking about the movements of this group of adventurers. He felt an inexplicable tense atmosphere, as if this forest was not just a simple adventure site, but also a maze full of unknowns and dangers. A complex emotion surged in his heart, both a desire for the unknown and a vigilance against potential dangers.

At this moment, an idea flashed through Xu Lai's mind: perhaps this group of adventurers could be used to obtain more information and resources. A slight smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and he was secretly thinking about his next plan. He decided to wait and see whether this group of adventurers would bring him unexpected opportunities.

"I have to be more careful." Xu Lai said to himself, took a deep breath, and felt a hint of tension in the air. His eyes were always fixed on the group of adventurers, and he was secretly alert in his heart, ready to deal with any situation that might arise at any time.

"I feel very uncomfortable here. Shouldn't we come to this new copy?" Carl frowned, feeling a little uneasy in his heart. The gloomy atmosphere around him seemed to be quietly devouring his courage. He looked around, the dense trees swayed in the breeze, and the shadows of the trees were mottled.refute, as if countless pairs of dark eyes were spying on them. His voice was low and trembling, as if he was issuing a silent warning for the safety of himself and his teammates.

"You think too much, Carl." A ranger curled his lips contemptuously, with a flash of disdain in his eyes, as if he was mocking Carl's caution. His fingers gently plucked the bowstring, making a slight sound, as if declaring his confidence and calmness. It can be seen that he is full of expectations for the upcoming challenge, and even has a hint of excitement.

"Even if there is danger, with so many of us together, can we not handle it?" There was a fearless momentum in his voice, as if injecting a shot of cardiotonic into the team, trying to dispel the haze in Carl's heart. Although he was a little nervous, in order not to panic his teammates, he tried to hide his uneasiness, and the corners of his mouth slightly raised, revealing a slightly forced smile.

While the team was discussing, Xu Lai quietly came out from behind the tree, pretending to be surprised, with a cunning light in his eyes: "Huh? There are other adventurers here! Great, I thought I was going to get lost." His voice was particularly crisp in the dark forest, as if a sudden ray of sunshine illuminated the haze.

The warrior looked at Xu Lai vigilantly, his hand firmly on the hilt of the sword, his eyes as sharp as a hawk, revealing a hint of defense: "Who are you?" His voice was low and powerful, as if issuing a warning, reminding the team to stay alert.

Xu Lai scratched his head awkwardly, and a helpless bitter smile appeared on his face: "Hey, I'm ashamed to say that I got separated from my teammates. I was wandering around in this forest alone, and I was getting more and more scared. I was worried about what to do, but I didn't expect to meet you." There was a bit of helplessness in his voice, as if he was telling the team about his loneliness and fear.

Pastor Jasmine looked at Xu Lai curiously. Her eyes were like a ray of gentle sunshine, shining on Xu Lai through the dark forest: "Are you also a ranger? At your level, you dare to come in?" Her voice was crisp and soft, revealing a trace of concern, as if she was worried about this seemingly weak adventurer.

Xu Lai waved his hands hurriedly, with a bit of urgency in his tone: "How can it be possible? I just followed others to mix experience. This set of equipment... hehe, it's all unwanted by teammates." He looked at his "rags" and sighed in his heart. Compared with his former gorgeous armor, the equipment in front of him was like rags that beggars didn't want, and it lost its former glory.

Carl seemed to be a little suspicious of Xu Lai, frowning slightly, and a trace of disbelief in his eyes: "You alone can pick up good equipment in such a high-level area? It's too outrageous." There was a hint of doubt in his voice, as if implying that Xu Lai was untrustworthy.

"How long have you been separated from your teammates?" Another team member couldn't help asking, with a vigilant light flashing in his eyes, as if he was full of vigilance against this sudden stranger.

Xu Lai smiled awkwardly, his eyes rolled, and he secretly calculated in his heart: "Actually, I know there are some hidden treasure chests in this forest, and the things inside are pretty good." He pretended to be mysterious, his voice was low and seductive, as if he was conveying a major secret to the team.

"But I can't tell you where it is exactly, it's a business secret, right?" He raised the corners of his mouth slightly, revealing a sly smile, as if he was enjoying the pleasure of controlling the situation. Xu Lai's words were like a stone thrown into the lake, stirring up layers of ripples, and the team's attention was instantly attracted.

"That's what my captain told us." At the end, he added another sentence, with a hint of pride in his voice, as if he was showing off the information he had, and he was secretly proud in his heart, as if he had seen endless wealth and glory in this forest.

However, as the team's discussion became more and more heated, Carl's uneasiness became more and more serious. His intuition told him that this forest was not simple, and the danger hidden in the shadows could come at any time. Although the laughter and discussions of his teammates echoed in his ears, he could not get rid of the invisible pressure, as if an invisible hand was tightly strangling his throat, making him unable to breathe.

At this moment, the air around him seemed to become heavy, and there was a rustling sound among the leaves, as if something was approaching quietly. Carl's heartbeat accelerated, and he looked around vigilantly, praying in his heart that there would be no accidents. He held the hilt of the sword tightly, ready to face the upcoming challenge.

Xu Lai was observing all this from the side, with a half-smile on his lips, and he was secretly proud in his heart. He knew that he was about to become the key to this adventure and hold the fate and future of the team in his hands.. No matter how difficult the road ahead is, he will spare no effort to pursue the treasure hidden in the darkness, waiting for his own glorious moment.

Another ranger curled his lips, his expression showing a bit of disdain and contempt, as if looking at a self-righteous fool: "Cut, why are you pretending to be a big tail wolf. You just accidentally ran into a few tattered treasures, and you are still smug, which is ridiculous." There was a hint of sarcasm in his voice, as if he was disdainful of Xu Lai, as if saying that the so-called luck is just a coincidence, not enough to make people complacent.

After hearing this, A Tie pondered for a while, frowned slightly, and then turned to Xu Lai, with a bit of concern and determination in his tone: "Since you and your teammates are separated, why not consider joining us? There is strength in numbers, and exploring this unknown forest together is always much safer than wandering here alone." There is a sincere concern in his words, as if reminding Xu Lai how unwise it is to face unknown dangers alone.

Xu Lai hesitated for a moment, thinking about his situation in his heart, and nodded reluctantly: "Okay, thank you for taking in a lost poor guy like me." There was a hint of helplessness and self-mockery in his voice, as if he felt sorry for his helpless situation. Xu Lai continued: "Don't worry, although it looks inconspicuous, I can definitely come in handy at the critical moment." There was a hint of firmness in this sentence, although he was actually uneasy in his heart.

In this way, Xu Lai joined the team exploring the forest as an ordinary adventurer without any suspense. Along the way, he chatted with other people in the team from time to time, trying to integrate into this strange group, but always cleverly avoided the topic of his own strength, like a cautious fox, wanting to get close but afraid of being discovered. At the same time, his eyes were constantly observing the performance of his teammates, trying to understand their strength and fighting style.

Judging from their performance against wild monsters, the strength of this team is at best medium level, far from the elite level. Facing some tricky monsters, they are often helpless and can only choose to take a detour, as if facing a high wall, with no way out. Xu Lai sighed in his heart. He knew that if he continued like this, the safety of the team would be greatly threatened.

Whenever this happened, Xu Lai would pretend to be in a hurry, shoot a few arrows in a hurry, and solve the problem secretly. In his mind, this approach was not only to protect his teammates, but also to conceal his true strength. His arrows drew a beautiful arc in the air, hitting the target quietly and silently, and the monsters seemed to become dull and slow in their movements at the moment of being attacked, as if they were restrained by an invisible force.

He gradually realized that when his soul attack hit the monsters, the monsters would always become dull, as if they were affected by a mysterious force. He thought to himself that it should be that special "bond" that really took effect, making these monsters confused and losing their original desire to attack and flexibility. But he didn't dare to shoot too much, for fear that the monsters would lose control and throw themselves into his arms, putting him in greater trouble.

Despite this, his teammates gradually looked at Xu Lai with new eyes and began to think that this guy seemed to be quite useful after joining the team. Whenever they encountered danger, Xu Lai's arrows could always solve the problem at the critical moment, which gradually changed their impression of him.

"Hey, Xu Lai, you are not hiding your strength, are you?" Jasmine couldn't help asking during a break. There was a hint of curiosity and ridicule in her voice, and her eyes flashed with a glimmer of inquiry, as if she wanted to uncover the mystery of Xu Lai.

"Your reaction is too fast, and your archery level is not comparable to that of ordinary rangers." Jasmine's tone was full of admiration, as if praising Xu Lai's talent, which made him feel a little happy in his heart.

"That's right, you are not pretending to be weak on purpose, wanting us to help you complete a task, are you?" Carl also said half-jokingly, with a light-hearted ridicule in his tone, as if teasing Xu Lai's cautiousness. Xu Lai felt nervous after hearing this. Although he tried to hide it, the tension and anxiety in his heart surged like a tide.

In this team, Xu Lai felt an unprecedented warmth and sense of belonging. Although he still had secrets in his heart, he began to desire to establish a deeper connection with his teammates. He wanted to share his experiences and stories, and wanted everyone to see the real him, not just the poor lost person. However, the fear and anxiety in his heart always lingered in his heart, like an inexhaustible force.The rope of a shaped rope bound him tightly.

As time went by, Xu Lai gradually realized that his role in this team was not just an ordinary adventurer, but also a person who could change the situation at a critical moment. An unprecedented hope and motivation ignited in his heart. Although he was still hiding his true strength, he knew that the real challenge had just begun.

Facing the doubts and doubts of his teammates, Xu Lai just smiled slightly, with a mysterious smile on his lips, as if he had a secret in his heart. He put on an unfathomable look, and his tone was relaxed and a little teasing: "Haha, you really think too much. If I really have such a powerful ability, how could I be abandoned by my teammates and wander alone in this dense forest?" There was a hint of cynicism in his words, as if he didn't care about the opinions of the outside world.

"Besides, isn't the purpose of our trip for this sudden copy?" Xu Lai continued, with a firm and enthusiastic tone. His eyes sparkled, as if describing the endless treasures hidden in the depths of the unknown forest. "Instead of thinking about me here, it is better to focus on how to plunder this forest next, make a lot of money, and enjoy a rich harvest." His voice echoed in the empty forest, as if inspiring everyone and boosting their morale.

After hearing Xu Lai's words, the teammates laughed easily, and the atmosphere suddenly became lively, as if the tension and uneasiness just now were swept away. However, only A Tie looked at Xu Lai quietly, with a hint of complex emotions flashing in his eyes, but he did not speak, as if he was thinking about some profound truth, or his attitude towards Xu Lai had changed subtly.

In this way, the group continued to walk slowly in the forest, and the surrounding environment gradually became quiet and mysterious. There were fewer and fewer monsters in the outer area, which seemed to be because other players were also cleaning up this area, leaving them with fewer and fewer opportunities. As they went deeper, the surrounding trees became taller and taller, with lush branches and leaves. The sun cast mottled light and shadows through the treetops. The ground was covered with thick fallen leaves, which made a slight rustling sound when stepped on, as if telling the ancient story of this forest.

However, the further they went inside, the team's ability began to appear obviously insufficient. There was a sense of oppression in the air, as if there was an invisible pressure forcing their hearts. At this moment, a piercing roar suddenly came, deafening, as if it was a call from hell, scaring Carl so much that he almost threw away the staff in his hand. His face turned pale in an instant, and there was a look of fear in his eyes.

"What, what sound?" Jasmine asked nervously, her voice trembling slightly, and she was obviously frightened by the sudden sound. Her hands were tightly holding the weapon, and her heart was beating violently in her chest, as if it might burst out at any time.

Xu Lai frowned. Although his level was reduced, his keen perception was far superior to that of A Tie and the others. He felt uneasy in his heart, and his intuition told him that this voice was definitely not a good one. "There." He pointed forward, his voice steady and firm, as if offering a glimmer of hope to his teammates.

After hearing his eager call, everyone quickly looked in the direction of his finger. At this moment, everyone was shocked by the scene in front of them, their heartbeats suddenly accelerated, and their breathing became rapid. They saw a huge, black monster, like a terrifying ghost slowly stepping out of the deep dark shadows, running towards their direction at an astonishing speed!

The monster's body was slender and agile, and every step it took on the ground would cause a slight vibration. The black hair on its body was as soft and smooth as silk, but under the sunlight, it reflected a creepy and strange luster, as if these hairs themselves contained some mysterious and evil power, silently telling people about the monster's incomparable ferocity and extreme danger.

"What kind of monster is this!" Another ranger shouted in horror, his voice full of helplessness and despair, as if facing imminent death. His face was pale, his hands were shaking, and his eyes showed his fear of the unknown.'s fear.

"With such a high level, the defense and attack power are too abnormal!" Another team member stuttered, his tone full of uneasiness and anxiety. Everyone in the team felt the threat brought by this monster, and an invisible pressure rose in their hearts.

"Even if it's a new copy, this is near the novice village." Someone whispered, with helplessness and fear about the future. At this moment, the atmosphere of the team became more and more tense, as if a storm was coming, oppressing everyone's heart.

In the depths of this forest, unknown dangers are quietly approaching, and their fate will be rewritten at this moment. Everyone began to think about how they should deal with this powerful monster in order to survive in this life-and-death contest.
