I became a saint in the game

Chapter 4: Is this considered saving people?

"So killing wild monsters can be considered a good deed?"

Looking at the two system prompts that suddenly popped up, Chen Shicheng was a little confused. Killing wild monsters could actually be considered a good deed! !
Originally, he was still considering what constituted a good deed, and thought he had to save the wounded and sick every day. He was planning to find a novice village and get a secondary profession like a doctor as soon as possible.

He never expected that the wild monsters that could be seen everywhere on the roadside would bring him such a big surprise. Isn't this making money just by standing there?

Unfortunately, a level one wild monster can only give you one point of merit. If you extract it three times a day, you can only gain three points of merit a day.

One point of merit is equivalent to practicing a skill for a year, and I spent 26 points to practice the most basic swordsmanship to perfection. If I rely on killing wild monsters, it will take 9 days to practice a skill to the maximum level! ! !
Isn't this a joke?

It seems that we need to find other ways to gain merit!
Chen Shicheng turned his gaze to the window of the dilapidated temple. The little girl had climbed back up at some point and was staring at him intently.

Seeing Chen Shicheng making provocative faces at her, the little girl said in a low voice, "Why are you so proud? If my uncle was here, he would have killed all those bandits long ago."

"No matter how powerful your uncle is, he's not here right now. If you have the guts, ask him to fly over here!"

Chen Shicheng took a break from his busy schedule to tease the little girl, ignoring her angry humming, and followed the same routine to lure the bandits from the periphery in one by one to deal with them.

Although this wastes a lot of time, safety is greatly improved. He doesn't want to underestimate the enemy and get embarrassed by the wild monsters like he did just now.

It's not that he was afraid of the 100% realistic pain level in the game, but he didn't want to embarrass himself in front of the NPC. After all, the little girl was looking at him unconvinced.
Just like that, after more than ten minutes of luring and killing monsters, there was only one bandit left surrounding the gate of the ruined temple.

Looking at the bandit captain with Lv.2 on his head, Chen Shicheng hesitated for a moment.

Although his perfect-level basic swordsmanship could easily kill a level one bandit, the process was not that simple.

Even with the passive effect of the skill "Reducing energy consumption by 40%", he was still a little out of breath after killing six bandits, and the Tang sword that he wielded like a finger became heavy.

Thinking that the bandit captain might be stronger than ordinary bandits, Chen Shicheng decided to take a shortcut.

"Girl."

"what?"

"Please do me a favor and make some noise at the door. I will kill the last bandit from behind."

"Say thank you!"

"?"

Chen Shicheng looked at the smug little girl, sucked his teeth, and said "thank you" reluctantly.

The little girl seemed to have won a battle. She broke free from the old man's obstruction, ran to the door, and started knocking on it.

"Bang bang bang!"

When the voice was heard, the bandit captain at the door, who had no idea that he was the only one left, immediately stopped circling and rushed directly to the gate of the ruined temple, completely unaware of Chen Shicheng who was approaching stealthily from behind.

Considering his remaining strength and the hardness of his spine, he reluctantly gave up the idea of ​​beheading the bandit captain with one blow, and settled for the next best thing and stabbed him in the kidney.

"Pfft!"

The Tang sword lived up to expectations and went straight through the opponent.

But being unconscious has its advantages. The bandit captain did not react like an ordinary person would when suddenly being stabbed. He completely ignored the pain and panic, and turned around and attacked Chen Shicheng in a sweeping move.

"Fuck!"

There was no time to pull out the Tang sword that was stuck in his muscle, so Chen Shicheng made a quick decision to let go and lay down.

He instinctively wanted to turn over and stand up, but the bandit captain did not stop at all. He stepped forward and raised his sword towards Chen Shicheng on the ground, making a powerful movement. His muscles instantly swelled and his blood vessels were visible to the naked eye. "Be careful!" Seeing this, the little girl inside the door frantically slapped the door, trying to attract the attention of the bandit captain.

Her actions did not have any effect, but Chen Shicheng did not sit idly by.

Just as the bandit captain paused to gather strength with his knife, he did not retreat but rolled forward and landed at the feet of the bandit captain.

At the same time, the knife in the bandit's hand slashed down with a loud bang.

Chop forward!

call!
The thick-backed machete slashed into the ground with a sharp whistling sound.

Just like a Tang sword stuck in the muscles and unable to be pulled out in time, the bandit captain's sword also revealed a flaw when he drew it out after it sank into the ground.

Chen Shicheng seized the opportunity, stood up, grabbed the handle of the Tang sword, and slashed it downward diagonally with force.

"crash"

Suddenly, all kinds of sewage, yellow, white, and red, poured out.

The bandit, whose abdomen was shriveled, fell to the ground without a sound, twitched twice and stopped moving.

[Kill Lv.2 Soulless Bandit Captain, double the experience for killing above your level, gain 8 experience points, and gain 11 copper coins. (No skills obtained, no upgrades, experience points have been stored in the experience pool.)]

[Kill Lv.2 Soulless Bandit Captain, the special effect of the Heaven-stealing Pendant is activated, whether to extract 1 point of this merit. (Remaining times: 3/3)]

[Save the lives of the grandfather and grandson, the special effect of the Heaven-stealing Pendant is activated, do you want to extract 20 points of merit this time? (Remaining times 3/3)]

"Ok?"

Looking at the system prompts on the panel, Chen Shicheng was completely confused.

It was obviously me who went out to kill the wild monsters, but this grandfather and grandson have already hidden in the ruined temple. They can survive if they just wait for the wild monsters to disperse. Does it count as saving lives if they are not in danger?

There were too few control groups, and he was unable to figure out the operating mechanism of this ancient relic for a while, so he had to give up temporarily.

But these 20 points of merit are really great. As the ancients said, saving a life is better than building a seven-story pagoda!
[Special effect used successfully, merit +20. (Remaining times 2/3)]

[merit: 51]

Seeing that the merit consumed by the basic swordsmanship had recovered to a value close to its previous value, Chen Shicheng felt that his efforts to kill these wild monsters were not in vain.

In addition to merit, the seven wild monsters also contributed 32 experience points and 29 copper coins to him. It's a pity that the experience points cannot be used at present, and it is unknown what the purchasing power of the copper coins is.

Just as Chen Shicheng was thinking about the prices in the game, the door of the dilapidated temple creaked open, and the little girl ran out, squatting beside him and asked worriedly.

"Are you OK?"

"What's the problem?" In order to prove himself, Chen Shicheng punched his chest twice, "See, I'm no worse than your uncle."

"Thank you for risking your life to save me, I have nothing to repay you for."

"Stop!" Chen Shicheng stretched out his hand to interrupt the old man who followed the little girl out, "Don't talk about being a slave in the next life. Let me ask you a question first."

"Uh, young man, please speak." The old man said somewhat embarrassedly.

"Where is the nearest village?"
