Dimension Demon's Chat Group

Chapter 446 Battle System
Seeing this, He Jingfeng on the high platform felt a surge of joy.

You like to do fancy things, right?
Live it!

Once the group of players had disappeared from sight, He Jingfeng coughed, stepped down from the platform, and looked at the gloating players around him, saying in a deep voice:

"Since the great battle with the Black Mountain Demon, the City of the Wrongfully Dead has changed hands, but various parts of the city have suffered varying degrees of damage. It is in dire need of reconstruction and manpower is urgently required for its rebuilding..."

Yo?
Are there any hidden tasks?

The players' eyes lit up, and they eagerly raised their hands, expressing that building the Underworld was their duty!

He Jingfeng was very satisfied with their response and immediately used his NPC privileges to issue various construction and scavenging tasks to the numerous players in front of him.

The former mainly involves building the player's starting village, while the latter involves going to the perimeter of the ruins to collect fragments of weapons and broken bones left behind from that time.

These tasks were not deliberately fabricated!
Because there are indeed many broken weapons and corpses on the surface and underground of the Heishan site.

Yan Chixia didn't think these things were of any value back then, so he ignored them.

But now, broken weapons can be remelted and used as transitional equipment for novice players, and broken corpses placed in the mortal graveyard can provide future players with a body to walk on.

Seeing the tasks pop up on the system panel, many players were overjoyed and immediately accepted them, then rushed towards the task locations with great enthusiasm.

In the other beginner village, chat group members like Li Shimin also made guest appearances as NPCs, distributing many beginner quests.

Of course, they are only temporarily playing the role of NPCs issuing quests; they cannot stay in this world forever.

As Yan Chixia trains more qualified NPCs in the future, this identity will eventually be inherited by others...

……

……

Meanwhile, the Black Mountain Ruins are located outside the City of the Wrongfully Dead.

Compared to the obviously safe zone of the newbie village, this is the first choice for the vast majority of players.

After all, it is the world's first virtual reality game, and it has a near 100% level of realism.

Any player with a sound mind can understand the meaning behind this statement—

That's an extraordinary power that's impossible to possess in the real world!

That's why the vast majority of players come here immediately, either as lone wolves or in teams, ready to experience the game's most important combat system.

Outside the ruins, in a dark and eerie forest.

Three figures, one large and two small, cautiously made their way through the forest.

Suddenly, a health bar lit up among the dense foliage ahead.

A semi-transparent remnant soul suddenly appeared and floated past expressionlessly.

"It's a level 3 incomplete wandering spirit!"

The skeleton player's eyes lit up, and without hesitation, he raised the wooden bow given to him by the system and fired an arrow at the remnant soul.

"call out--"

The bone arrow pierced the air, displaying speed and power far exceeding that of humans.

Unfortunately, the archer's accuracy was clearly lacking.

The remnant soul was only seven or eight meters away from the three of them, and its movement was completely predictable. However, the bone arrow that shot out passed by the soul at a speed of about three feet away, without even touching a single hair of the soul.

Seeing this, the ghoul players nearby were speechless.

"Greedy brother, you..."

"..."

Greedy looked embarrassed and whispered, "I didn't expect this game to be so dependent on archery skills. Logically speaking, there should be an aiming assist function!"

The giant skeleton beside him looked on with disdain: "Glutton, stop making excuses. You can't even hit him at this close range, and you call yourself an FPS master!"

"Can that be the same?!"

The glutton complained, "FPS games only require clicking the mouse, but this game makes me draw the bow and aim manually. I'm not an archery enthusiast, how could I possibly—"

Before he could finish speaking, Matcha suddenly spoke up, her tone urgent:
"Watch out, that wandering spirit has spotted us!"

what? !

Both the glutton and the giant skeleton were startled and quickly turned to look.

The wandering spirit had turned its head and was now staring at the three of them expressionlessly.

Without hesitation, Matcha immediately drew the bone knife from her waist and said in rapid succession:

"Greedy Brother, there's no time for you to get used to it. You stay behind and shoot arrows for damage, Unbreakable Brother, help draw aggro, and I'll roam around and hold the line, while also dealing some extra damage!"

"it is good!"

The giant skeleton named 'Speed ​​is the only way to break through' immediately nodded and strode forward with its thick leg bones.

The wandering spirit seemed to be provoked, and immediately let out a shriek as it charged toward the three of them.

With a loud shout, "Speed ​​is everything!" he unleashed a pair of hand bones the size of palm fans, which swung out like heavy hammers, slamming into the wandering spirit with a whistling airflow, and then... passed right through the translucent spirit.

"what?!"

The giant skeleton was completely bewildered, and its mind went blank for a moment.

Fortunately, Matcha reacted quickly, swinging her bone knife fiercely and slashing at the wandering spirit.

With just one strike, the wandering soul let out a scream, and the three players quickly saw their reactions, causing the wandering soul's health bar to drop by about one-twentieth.

"Only ten points of damage?"

Looking at the damage numbers that popped up in front of her eyes, Matcha couldn't help but complain.

But then he realized what he was doing and shouted, "We're too low a level right now, we need to use system weapons to hurt these wandering spirit monsters—Brother Bupo, where's your shield?!"

"oh oh!"

The giant skeleton realized what was happening and quickly took out a stark white bone shield from the storage space that came with the mark.

But at that moment, the wandering spirit turned around and charged fiercely at the matcha.

"Holy crap, it's coming at me!"

Matcha let out a strange cry and quickly dodged.

However, he lacked experience in close combat and was caught off guard when the wandering spirit grabbed his arm.

In the blink of an eye, a dark palm print appeared on the injured area. The system panel in front of Matcha also quickly responded, and half of her previously full HP bar immediately disappeared.

"Holy crap, the damage is that high?!"

Matcha was startled and quickly hid behind the giant skeleton.

The giant skeleton, shield in hand, lashed out with its elbow, sending the charging ghost flying.

Matcha breathed a sigh of relief, then couldn't help but complain, "My finishing blow only did ten points of damage, but this guy almost killed me with one hit!"

"This is how you fight monsters that are way higher level than you!"

While gluttonously responding, he drew his bow and aimed an arrow at the wandering spirit once more.

This time, however, he did not rush to shoot the arrow. Instead, he held his breath and focused his mind, slowly taking aim.

Just then, an indescribable chilling aura surged into my body.

Greedy was slightly taken aback, and then he realized that the world in front of him had changed. It seemed that a wisp of yin energy was spreading out from the tip of the arrow and extending forward.

"This is... aiming assist?!"

"I knew it! How could this game not have a support character!"

With a surge of gluttony, he immediately aimed the white line of yin energy at the wandering soul and released the bowstring without hesitation.

"call out--"

The bone arrow pierced the air and struck the wandering soul's head with pinpoint accuracy.

The world as seen by the three players changed accordingly, and a red number of thirty points appeared.

"Critical hit!"

Greedy's eyes lit up and he quickly said, "Brother Bupo, control him, I'll deal the damage!"

Speed ​​is everything. He immediately stepped forward and began to elbow the target repeatedly with his shield.

Taking advantage of the stun effect caused by the shield impact, Greed fired two arrows in quick succession, each hitting the head and dealing damage numbers that fluctuated around thirty.

After the final critical hit of 32 damage, the wandering spirit's health finally reached its limit. With a shriek, it instantly dissipated into a sky full of yin energy.

"Holy crap, that's accurate?!"

Matcha stared wide-eyed at the glutton in shock.

Greedy lowered his wooden bow and said smugly, "I've finally found the trick! This game also allows you to hold your breath. When you're aiming down sights, as long as you hold your breath and concentrate, you can lock on with your yin energy, just like auto-aiming!"

"Brilliant!"

Matcha and the giant skeleton gave a thumbs up: "No wonder you're a pro FPS player!"

Greedy rolled his eyes and said irritably, "If you're an expert, you're the real pro!"

Before the words were finished, the scattered Yin energy regrouped, transforming into three thin streams that flowed into the bodies of the three people respectively.

All three players were invigorated.

After digesting the yin energy, the glutton exclaimed with delight:

"I've upgraded!"

"Me too!"

Matcha looked at the system panel in front of her and said, "The system notified me that I gained 120 experience points. You should get the same number over there, right?"

"That's right!"

"That means disregarding the damage and distributing it equally."

The three players exchanged glances, all quite satisfied with the team-up system.

After all, team contributions are not limited to damage. Matcha's command and control, as well as the Giant Skeleton's shield bash control, are also important reasons why Greedy can kill enemies with three arrows.

"After the upgrade, all my attributes increased by a little. What about yours?"

Matcha nodded and said, "Me too."

The giant skeleton glanced at its attribute panel and hesitated, saying, "It seems different here. My intelligence and spirit attributes haven't increased, but my strength and constitution have increased by two points."

Greedy and Matcha exchanged a glance, neither of them surprised.

After all, you can tell this guy is a tank just by looking at him. Adding intelligence and spirit would be ridiculous.

"Brother Bupo, what are your current strength and physique?"

"Speed ​​is everything" honestly replied, "Strength 11, Constitution 13."

Both gluttonous and matcha were shocked: "So tall?!"

"How many do you have?" asked Wei Kuai Bu Po curiously.

Greedy smiled bitterly and said, "Strength 5, Constitution 3."

Matcha nodded and said, "I'm about the same, except my constitution is a little stronger than Glutton's."

He paused, then clicked his tongue in amazement and said, "With such a high physique, no wonder you didn't react when that wandering spirit attacked you."

"This is an innate tank physique!"

"I'm becoming more and more envious of you..."

"Speed ​​is everything" chuckled, clearly quite satisfied with his luck.

"As expected, ranged classes are all top-tier in the early game!"

Matcha's eyes lit up as he said, "Greedy Bro, your bone arrows deal such high damage, and Unbreakable Bro is a super heavy tank. With me, the brilliant and mighty captain, we might be able to take the high-end route and go deep into the ruins to fight monsters that are way above our level!"

Where is the wisdom?

Where is Shenwu?

Gluttony and the speed-obsessed girl gave him a disdainful look.

The former pondered for a moment, then shook his head and said, "I'm afraid that won't work."

Matcha asked in confusion, "Why?"

Greedy chuckled bitterly, "Bone arrows are consumables. I only received ten, and I've already wasted four. I have to use the remaining six sparingly..."
