Chosen Evolution: I can load the protagonist template

Chapter 5: Treasure Chest Monsters are an important part that players must experience
If there is any advantage for Cheng Tian and his group of newbies who have just entered the Demon Village, it is undoubtedly this dungeon birth point, which is about 5 meters higher than the ground.

Because it is a single high hill-type cemetery, there are only about ten tombstones on it. It is true that the zombies crawled out from under these ten tombstones, but then they left behind empty pits, and no more zombies appeared out of thin air.

Obviously, the resurrection of zombies requires reasonable conditions to be set, and the common situation that there is only one corpse in a grave becomes a reasonable rule to limit the number of zombie refreshes.

Demons 'n' Ghost Village is indeed a difficult dungeon for beginners, but the Chosen Space has a core rule that beginners don't know yet.

That is, the space will not design a copy or task that is bound to result in death for the player. No matter how dangerous and difficult it seems, there must be some way for the player to pass the level.

Cheng Tian had already noticed that the empty tomb would no longer spawn monsters, so he gave up his original idea of ​​breaking out while the other unlucky guys were being eaten.

Obviously, the current situation is a warning given to players by the copy. To use more game-oriented terms, this is actually a "monster tide". In layman's terms, monsters will rush towards players in the form of a tide and encircle and suppress them.

People who have played games like Survival, Vermintide, and Dark Tide should be able to understand the meaning more clearly.

However, the tide is a tide that rises and falls, which means that as long as you can survive this first wave of monsters, you will most likely get some breathing time.

Therefore, low mountains that are easy to defend and difficult to attack are actually a more advantageous choice in the current situation.

Currently, among the novice players, only Cheng Tian and the one who was awakened are capable of fighting, while the others are either injured or dead.

Even the group of people who fled into the cemetery below in a panic failed to fulfill their duty as "bait". After the screams disappeared among the zombies, the zombie tide triggered by their chain reaction all turned around and began to rush towards the direction of Cheng Tian and the others, saying, "Kill one and I'll break even! Kill two and I'll make a profit!"

There was no way out. The intense fighting made Cheng Tian and the others' blood boil. To the zombies covered in dark magic, this was as conspicuous as a torch, and they came over just by smelling the scent.

At this time, the terrain advantage of the low mountains with different heights is reflected.

The zombies in Demon Village do have an advantage in straight-line pursuit, but their rigid and rotten joints inevitably cause them to stagnate when facing obstacles, hillsides, and straight stairs.

They obviously cannot replicate the level of corpse piles in "World War Z". Even if they successfully climb the mountain by stepping on the corpses, what awaits them is only Cheng Tian's whip who keeps a safe distance.

With just one whip, the zombies will be killed and purified by the divine power.

Although the Demon-Breaking Whip is a melee weapon, its attack range far exceeds that of ordinary swords, spears, and axes. It can hit melee enemies while maintaining a safe distance.

Then there is the implicit enhancement brought by the Simon template, which makes his whip almost always hit the target.

However, there is a very counterintuitive key point here, that is, the reason why Cheng Tian can kill one corpse in one second with each whip is entirely because he is not equipped with regular weapons and only uses the whip that comes with the template weapon.

The weapons that come with the template are, in a sense, very similar to the fashions in online games. They are additional attributes beyond regular equipment. This is why the extra holy damage of the Vampire Killer is the key point. The weapon damage of only 1-1 is better than nothing.

If Cheng Tian is equipped with a one-handed axe with one ear, the vampire killer's "extra holy damage per hit" will also be superimposed on the axe. However, due to the huge difference in the weapon types of the two sides, the original 10 points of extra holy damage will most likely be reduced to a pitiful one or two points. Once the minimum weapon damage of the one-handed axe is triggered again, it is likely that two axes or even three axes will be needed to kill a zombie.

On the contrary, because Cheng Tian only used the fashion whip, the 10 points of holy damage did not decay, which was just enough to kill a full-blood zombie with slight damage overflow, without the need for finishing off the zombies. This greatly saved physical energy consumption while also avoiding the danger of being counterattacked during continuous attacks.

The zombies found it difficult to climb up the hill, they were killed with high efficiency and low energy consumption, one ear was used to fill in the gaps intermittently, and they moved around appropriately. This wave of zombies represented a show of force, and it was also a rough screening mechanism. The number of zombies was visibly decreasing, and they were replaced by empty graves.

However, this situation didn't last until the zombie tide ended. Something unexpected happened. Cheng Tian, ​​sweating profusely, whipped out his whip again, and the zombie's head exploded without a second thought. But then, a metal box, slightly glowing and appearing like black iron, unexpectedly popped out from the headless corpse and rolled down the hillside.

The box exploded! ?
A game where people die naturally has rules about dropping items when killing monsters. As the weakest and most vulnerable monsters in the entire Demon Village, the zombie group finally dropped the first treasure chest. This is one of the basic manifestations of the item dropping rules in the Chosen Space.

However, this lowest-level black iron treasure chest in front of him did not have any relevant rules such as "drop and pickup protection".

This is actually one of the ways that the Chosen Space clearly shows that Chariots and Horses are causing conflicts between players.

The "Novice Trial" entry explicitly prohibits killing between players, but in fact, killing each other only reduces the benefits, and does not really deprive players of the right to kill.

As strength increases and evolution accelerates, when will players come up with the idea of ​​"I don't eat beef"...it really depends on the individual.

Cheng Tian was very patient. He just glanced at the rolling treasure chest and didn't pay any more attention to it. Safety was obviously a higher priority for him. Even if he wanted to open the treasure chest, he had to clear all the monsters first.

In addition, Cheng Tian, ​​a character from a certain setting in Demon Village, came to mind, and a sense of vigilance also hung in his mind.

Yizier also saw that the treasure chest had rolled to the outside of the remaining zombie group, a place where it could be picked up with a little effort, but he had no idea about it. His thinking circuit was very simple and direct. He also had an accurate understanding of the game drops. He thought that since the treasure chest was obtained by Cheng Tian, ​​it should belong to him and had nothing to do with him.

But at this critical moment, someone actually slid down the slope!

He is Yizi's roommate. Although he has no weapons, he survived because he made the right choice and hid beside Cheng Tian and Yizi.

With the fear of facing zombies, the unwillingness to accept that he was a complete drag, and the envy of Cheng Tian and Yizier, plus the fact that neither of them had the desire to pick up the treasure chest, the boy hesitated for about 5 seconds before starting.

The cell phone guy also wants to be as powerful as Cheng Tian!

At this time, the zombie swarm's attention was mostly focused on Cheng Tian and his group. The crows had been temporarily whipped away, so when the mobile phone guy landed, no zombies surrounded him. He successfully touched the black iron treasure chest directly, but...

With a bang, the lid of the black iron treasure chest that had been touched by the young man automatically popped open, and a cloud of gray-black smoke rose.

When the smoke quickly dissipated, a humanoid creature dressed in a blue tuxedo, a blue top hat, a red cape, holding a gentleman's cane, and with a face that looked a bit like the stereotypical hooked-nosed vampire emerged directly, scaring the guy with the mobile phone so much that he froze in place and trembled all over.

But Tuxedo did not hesitate at all. He just opened his cloak and waved his cane, and a magic missile made up of a hexagram was shot out directly.

The guy with the cell phone was unable to dodge and was completely eaten.

In an instant, smoke covered the young man's entire body.

But when the smoke cleared, the young man's figure was gone, replaced by a white duck with a very anthropomorphic face.

"Gah!?"

The mobile phone duck is furious.
