Tokyo underground city

"Okay, please."

Lin Huai'en thought for a moment and felt that the Fat Knight and others would not trick him, so he nodded.

He did not rely on others, thinking that he alone was enough. In the previous battle, he did get rid of a cursed corpse wolf with a threat level of about 1.3, but that was only with a little experience and luck, and then let him face the cursed corpse wolf. There is no guarantee that he will be able to "escape intact".

But having said that, after watching the battle between Fat Knight and Yuan Xiaole, he could still feel that the threat of the giant cicada monkey was much lower than that of the cursed skeleton. With Yuan Xiaole's help, it shouldn't be difficult for him to deal with it.

"The Cicada Monkey's attack range is not very large, it's similar to us holding a dagger. As long as we can avoid their attacks and prevent them from rushing towards Yuan Zi, that's all."

The Fat Knight was worried that Lin Huai'en had little experience facing the Cicada Monkey for the first time, so he specifically told him his battle experience.

Lin Huaien nodded and said nothing.

Compared with the Fat Knight, his fighting style is still a little different.

Compared with Lin Huai'en, the Fat Knight is bigger and stronger, and the attack range of the war hammer in his hand is also longer. Therefore, to the Fat Knight, it is just a troublesome giant cicada monkey. To him, it actually has a certain meaning. physical suppression.

The Fat Knight can rely on his height and weight to suppress the giant cicada monkey in front of Yuan Xiaole, but it is difficult for Lin Huai'en to do the same thing - even if his level and muscle strength are higher than the Fat Knight.

[Battles in dungeons are no different from those in the real world. Don’t use the values ​​in the game to understand “things that can be done” and “things that are impossible to do” in the dungeon. Attributes are just auxiliary. 】

[By "Newcomer Tutor" Black Card Magician. 】

"Although I didn't understand it very well at first...but now I understand it very clearly——"

Soon, after walking through a side road, Lin Huai'en saw a giant cicada monkey——

This cicada monkey was much bigger than the one Fat Knight and the others had killed. It lay on a huge tree burl and kept sucking. With every suck it made, green gleaming sap flowed into it. Its body eventually converged into a mass of dark green fluorescence on its abdomen.

"As for the black card magician..."

He took a deep breath, raised the weapon in his hand, and took the initiative to meet him——

"That is to say, even if they have the same [muscle strength], the 'Giant Sword Loli' can't compete with the 'Muscular Man' in stance ability!"

Almost at the moment when Yuan Xiaole's arrow pierced the giant cicada monkey, he had already approached the monster's side and plunged the dagger in his hand deeply into the giant cicada monkey's abdomen.

The dagger followed the texture of the exoskeleton and easily cut into the Cicada Monkey's flesh and blood. The moment the body fluids splashed, he turned around and pulled out the dagger.

The giant cicada monkey let out a huge roar, with white body fluids spraying from its abdomen, and rushed towards Lin Huai'en.

It didn't take into account Yuan Xiaole and others behind it at all!

Yuan Xiaole and the others were dumbfounded!

If the Fat Knight's fighting method is to use the narrow terrain of the dungeon to block the giant cicada monkey in front of him, Lin Huai'en uses greater trauma to make the cicada monkey completely forget about the existence behind him!

He even exposed his entire back to Yuan Xiaole!

After seeing Lin Huai'en's actions, Yuan Xiaole instantly understood the reason why he did this. Arrows flew like raindrops and kept sinking into the cicada monkey's carapace. He also used just the right steps to seduce the giant cicada monkey and keep attacking him. attack.

When the giant cicada monkey attacked, he just kept retreating. Once the giant cicada monkey turned around and wanted to attack Yuan Xiaole behind him, he would immediately pounce on it and stab the giant cicada monkey's fragile abdomen deeply. A sword.

Gu Xun's reckless attacks almost drove the giant cicada monkey crazy. After several attacks on Lin Huai'en to no avail, it finally made up its mind and rushed towards Yuan Xiaole, wanting to deal with the enemies over there first.

However, before it could rush to Yuan Xiaole, Lin Huai'en threw away the buckler in his hand and stabbed it in the abdomen.

When the cicada monkey rushed in front of Yuan Xiaole, its abdomen was almost cut in two by Lin Huai'en. It lost all its strength and staggered and fell in front of Yuan Xiaole.

"Upgraded." Lin Huaien wiped the sweat from his head, opened the attribute panel and took a look, then added the talent value to muscle strength, visceral endurance and nerve reflexes in the ratio of 2:2:1.

Now his attributes are——

【Lin Huaien】

【Level Lv.3】

[Number of deepest exploration levels: 1]

[Muscle strength (evaluation F-): 1.18]

[Tough internal organs (rating F-): 1.17]

[Nerve reflex (evaluation F): 1.49]

[Thinking memory (evaluation G+): 0.95]

[Magic quality (evaluation G): 0.5]

"Except for [nerve reflexes], muscle strength and visceral toughness have both reached F- level, which is almost 1.5 times that of ordinary people; [nerve reflexes] have reached 1.48, entering F level, which is almost 1.8 times that of ordinary people. .”

"Of course, these attributes are all values ​​in the dungeon. According to Wilderness House, explorers' abilities will generally be suppressed after returning to the ground. The higher the level, the more suppressed they are. I'm almost there now He is just an ordinary person with slightly stronger than average reflexes..."

Lin Huai'en clenched his fists, feeling the new growing power——

"Although this 'ordinary person' is calculated based on the world average!"

In other words, due to racial differences, he must be stronger than most Asians in terms of physical fitness alone.

Having been a liberal arts otaku all his life, he was a little surprised by this feeling of vitality in his body.

"Brother Lin, what did you do before?! The way you fight is so cool! We were all stunned!"

At this moment, the fat knight also crossed the Cicada Monkey's body with admiration, trotted to Lin Huai'en, took out a towel, and handed it to Lin Huai'en in a hurry, who was all wet with the Cicada Monkey's bodily fluids.

"It's just an ordinary clerical job, nothing surprising."

Facing the fat knight's slightly respectful gaze, Lin Huai'en was quite sober, because he knew it was no big deal——

That was just his boring fighting style as a former social beast, shrewd and calculating.

"Wait for me a moment." After wiping the mucus on his face with a towel, Lin Huai'en quickly walked towards the cicada monkey and pulled out a piece of dark green fluorescent crystal from the depths of its abdomen that had been chopped into two pieces.

"Crystal core!" Seeing the thing in Lin Huai'en's hand, the fat knight exclaimed with disbelief on his face.

When they heard his voice, Yuan Xiaole and Mu Yaya, who were pulling arrows from the cicada monkey's back, also turned their heads in surprise.

This made Lin Huai'en curious: "Is there anything wrong with this thing?"

However, the Fat Knight only looked at the dark green crystal in Lin Huai'en's hand, and was so excited that he couldn't help but say, "This is a crystal core! I have only seen this one since I became a dungeon explorer two months ago!"

"Ah...ah?!"

Lin Huai'en held the dark green crystal in his hand and was stunned for a moment, and then suddenly realized something——

I seem to have some misunderstanding about the crystal core? !

If you think about it carefully, the giant cicada monkey that Fat Knight and the others killed before did not drop any dark green crystals.

Aside from a few pieces of edible insect meat with a shelf life, and an exoskeleton that could serve as material for soft armor, there's nothing of value.

Even the purchase price of a large pile of insect meat and carapace on the ground is only more than ten yuan per pound, which is about the same as the amethyst in the toilet dungeon - even in terms of portability, the value of cicada and monkey meat is still Far inferior to amethyst!

"No! If the crystal core can really produce any kind of monster, it's impossible to sell it for more than a thousand yuan each! The two crystal cores on the body of the curse are, in the final analysis, just the product of a layer of monsters..."

"So, not every monster has something like a crystal core?!"

Lin Huai'en instantly made a guess from the reactions of Fat Knight and others.

He suppressed the surprise on his face very well, and handed it to the fat knight with a sense of confusion as he did not understand the value of the thing in his hand: "Is this thing rare?"

"More than rare!"

The fat knight explained excitedly: "It is said that there is only one monster in a hundred, and it must be an elite monster before advancement! Otherwise, it is because of the suppression of the dungeon level, and it has been unable to upgrade, so it can only accumulate energy in The old monster in the body!"

He took a breath, calmed down, and continued to explain:

"Both of these monsters are very rare. I saw someone selling the crystal core of a giant cicada monkey in a purchase shop before. One piece costs three to four thousand yuan! It's almost our income for a week!"

"Huh?" Hearing this, Lin Huai'en was stunned again: "Wait a minute, the three of you only have 12,000 yuan in a month?"

"Yes." Hearing Lin Huai'en's inquiry, the Fat Knight also calmed down. Thinking about it carefully, even if a crystal core is sold for 4,000 yuan, four people can't share much, let alone this giant cicada monkey. Lin Huai'en and Yuan Xiaole killed half of them, so it was no big deal.

Just like teams do not "share experiences", explorers also basically "get what they get for their work".

Thinking of this, the ecstasy in the Fat Knight's heart suddenly dissipated a lot, but he still endured the excitement and explained to Lin Huai'en: "Ordinary explorers like us don't earn much in the first five floors. We must reach the fifth floor after , will gradually improve.”

"The top five levels of 'high-income earners' are mainly [Enterprise Power] dominated by [Hyenas]. In this regard, [Personal Power] that lacks support cannot compare with them."

After recovering all the arrows, Yuan Xiaole also came over and joined the conversation between Lin Huai'en and the Fat Knight.

The words used in Yuan Xiaole's mouth successfully attracted Lin Huai'en's attention.

He asked with some curiosity: "[Enterprise momentum]?"

"It refers to those explorers who belong to the [Dungeon Exploration Company]."

Yuan Xiaole nodded and replied: "In contrast, there are [association forces] and [military forces] that are affiliated with the government, as well as [individual forces] like ours that have no affiliation. You can artificially 'power' it" The abbreviation of 'power' is not exactly the same as 'power'. It is the term used by the Tokyo Association, and it is quite easy to use once you get used to it."

"In short, a certain amount of 'understanding' is required."

Lin Huai'en nodded and roughly remembered this knowledge in his heart——

"So." He looked at Yuan Xiaole: "There is one more question."

“Why can ‘Enterprise Power’ make money in the first 5 levels, but ‘Personal Power’ can’t?”
