Elderly warriors on the battlefield of all races

Chapter 10 Blackwater Forest
All the monsters in the base were dealt with by Zhang Mu.

Looking at my own panel data.

Name: Zhang Mu

Age: 147 years old

Cultivation: Late Stage 1

Qi and blood: 290
Skills: None

So far, Zhang Mu's other information has remained almost unchanged, except for his Qi and Blood, which has increased from 65 to 290.
This also made Zhang Mu's true strength reach the middle stage of the second stage, especially his physical close combat ability. Martial artists of the same level of cultivation could not be his opponents at all.

However, what puzzled Zhang Mu the most was the last item, skills. His skills had never been useful.

He doesn't know how to acquire skills.

I just felt that killing monsters would unlock some kind of skills, but after killing hundreds of monsters, I didn't see any skills appear.

Since there was none, Zhang Mu didn't care. He was now ready to leave the base and go to the wilderness to kill monsters.

Before, Lao Zhang only had the cultivation level of the late first stage, and if he went outside the base, he would be easily torn to pieces by monsters.

Now his physical realm has reached the middle stage of the second stage and is heading straight for the third stage. He also has the basic conditions to survive in the wilderness.

Especially the monsters, most of them have strong bodies, and he is also good at close combat, which makes him very suitable for fighting with monsters.

Taking the space ring temporarily given to him by the base, and several knives, swords, daggers, hammers and other weapons, Zhang Mu reported to the base and started fighting monsters in the wilderness.

"Lao Zhang, with your late first-stage strength, it's really dangerous to go outside the base."

"It's better not to go. I'm almost going to retire. Why take such a big risk?"

Many of the soldiers stationed at the fortifications knew Zhang Mu. Knowing that Zhang Mu wanted to go outside the base, they tried to persuade him.

He is really a warrior in the late first stage, his strength is too weak, and going outside the base is tantamount to committing suicide.

Besides, Zhang Mu is about to retire, and it is a bit hard to understand why he is still doing such risky things.

Others didn't understand because Zhang Mu's magic realm was still in the late first level. Of course, Zhang Mu didn't listen to the advice and was determined to leave the base and go to the wilderness.

"It's okay. Although I'm old, I'm not dead. As long as I'm alive, I won't give up the path of martial arts."

After hearing Zhang Mu's words, the soldiers did not stop him. They checked Zhang Mu's pass and let him pass on the spot.

After Zhang Mu left, a group of soldiers shook their heads.

"Old Zhang is such a stubborn old man."

"No one wants to admit that they are old, but when you are old, you are old. It is time to retire. Why should you try to be stubborn?"

They will not stop anyone who wants to leave the base. As long as the other party has a pass, they can come and go freely. After all, there are many people who go outside the base to hunt monsters every day.

There are even special monster hunting teams and monster hunting groups.

The Blue Star government also strongly supports this behavior of hunting monsters, because there are too many monsters in the wilderness and monster tides often occur. It would be best if all the monsters could be killed.

The people from the monster hunting team and the monster hunting group hunt monsters and naturally bring them back to Blue Star to sell them and make huge profits.

However, hunting monsters without sufficient strength would be tantamount to suicide.

Monsters are not so easy to deal with.

Walking out of the base defense, there was an open space outside and there were almost no monsters here, so if Zhang Mu wanted to hunt monsters, he had to go to a farther place.

As for the restaurant at the base, there are other chefs there. He is the head chef and things have been arranged in advance. It doesn't matter if he is away for a few days.

"call"

With big strides, Zhang Mu quickly rushed away into the distance.

After walking for dozens of kilometers, Zhang Mu had entered a huge forest, which was called the Black Water Forest by the people at the base.

There are many monsters in the Black Water Forest, and it is even rumored that there are powerful fifth-level monsters.

Of course, Zhang Mu is only on the outskirts of the Black Water Forest now. As long as he does not go deep into the core circle, he should not encounter any powerful monsters.

After all, he came here to gain blood and energy, so he only needed to kill some low-level monsters. There was no need to take the risk of killing monsters that were too strong.

"Zhizhi."

Suddenly, Zhang Mu heard a sound nearby. He turned around and saw seven or eight rodent monsters that were larger than foxes, chasing and playing with each other. They looked very cute.

"Jerboa?"

In his perception, those seven or eight jumping rats were not even first-level monsters.

But Zhang Mu had no intention of letting these cute jumping mice go. To him, ants are also meat.

Taking out a dagger from the space ring, Zhang Mu seized the opportunity, and rushed in front of the group of cute jumping mice playing in the blink of an eye.

"Brush brush"

He swung the dagger in his hand quickly, killing each kid one by one. In an instant, he had killed all the jumping rats that had not yet reacted.

Although Lao Zhang's cultivation level has always been very low, he has never given up practicing and has a lot of combat experience.

What's more, Zhang Mu's physical body has reached the middle stage of the second level now, so it is easy for him to catch the jumping mouse which is less than the first level.

"You successfully killed a monster and gained 0.8 points of health."

Receive prompts of Qi and blood value feedback one after another.

He counted them and found that there were eight jumping mice in total, and instantly gained 6.4 points of health.

His Qi and HP also increased from 290 to 296.4.
The space ring collected all the jumping mice and ended the battle perfectly.

Not only can you gain health points, but each of the eight jumping rats can be sold for more than one hundred yuan, which is a double harvest.

It’s a pity that the value of monsters below the first level is generally low, and only the Angora rabbit with better meat quality can be sold at a good price.

The only valuable thing about jumping mice is their fur; their meat is of very poor quality.

Even so, it was a very good gain for Zhang Mu.

Next, Zhang Mu did not enter the Black Water Forest, but continued to hunt the weaker monsters on the edge and reaped a lot of rewards.

His Qi and blood value had long since broken through three hundred and reached three hundred and twenty.

"Sure enough, hunting monsters in the wilderness is the fastest way to gain Qi and health points."

Zhang Mu was outside without any scruples. He killed every monster he saw. It only took him half a day to gain thirty points of health.

Moreover, his Qi and blood values ​​continue to increase, which makes his combat effectiveness stronger, and he seems to be getting more and more powerful as the battle goes on.

If it were other warriors, they would need to rest and adjust after such an event, but he did not.

"It is indeed very slow for a monster beast that is less than the first level to gain Qi and health. We have to find a first-level monster beast to start with."

Zhang Mu gradually began to feel dissatisfied with just killing low-level monsters, because monsters below the first level generally had a health value of less than 1 point.

If you kill a first-level monster, you will gain a higher health value.

The health value he obtained from killing a first-level monster was between 1 and 10. After he killed a first-level peak monster, he could only obtain a maximum of 10 points of health value.

If he wants to improve his physical realm now, he needs at least several hundred Qi and blood points, and he has to kill hundreds of first-level monsters.

But the problem is that first-level monsters are not so easy to deal with.

Once a monster crosses the first level, its IQ will become extremely high, and it will have a variety of special abilities.

"Ok?"

"Bristle Pig, a Bristle Pig of the late first stage."

Zhang Mu suddenly saw a huge bristle pig leading several smaller bristle pigs foraging for food at the edge of the forest ahead.

He rushed over immediately.

"Hoo Hoo Hoo"

The bristly pigs seemed to have discovered Zhang Mu a long time ago. When they saw Zhang Mu coming, they not only did not run away, but they all rushed towards Zhang Mu in an instant.

These are monsters, especially ferocious monsters like the bristle pigs. When they sensed that Zhang Mu posed no threat to them, they immediately began to fight back.

Moreover, more than a dozen bristle pigs attacked Zhang Mu collectively.

The weakest among them are all in the early stage of the first level.
