Legend: One corpse-picking message per day

Chapter 41 Hidden Drop Rate?

shhhhhh...

After flying around erratically, He Sheng arrived at the entrance to the next level.

Yu Jie had already arrived and was working hard to clear out the monsters.

Each time the little monster attacked her, she only lost a few drops of health.

Previously, because of her good positioning, she hadn't been hit by the monsters much, and He Sheng hadn't noticed that her defense was so strong.

Clearly, her defensive capabilities are comparable to his!
Judging from her equipment and attack damage, He Sheng strongly suspects that she has unlocked the monster encyclopedia and costumes.

If the outfit isn't displayed, others won't be able to see it either.

The other player is clearly not an ordinary player; it's normal for them to have those kinds of skills.

Lost in thought, he joined the battle.

What He Sheng didn't know was that Yu Jie had also speculated countless times about his identity.

Such a strong and resilient fighter must be from a powerful family, but I wonder which one...

Because He Sheng had been brushed off when he asked Yu Jie where she was from, neither of them both bothered to inquire about the other's family background.

In any case, they were just passing through each other's lives...

Therefore, He Sheng hasn't asked the other party whether they've gotten any fashion items or anything like that...

No need...

The two quickly cleared out the monsters at the entrance. While cleaning up the battlefield, Yu Jie suddenly exclaimed excitedly:

"Haha! I've found a really good one!"

"What is it?" He Sheng asked curiously.

Yu Jie didn't say anything, but simply sent the equipment stats to the team.

He Sheng opened it and took a look.
Medium Armor (Female):
Attack 0-4, Defense 3-7...

"I'm dizzy!"

This thing is really good!
Although it's not a beam-of-light equipment, it increases attack by 4 points!
Defense has increased by 1 point.

Selling it for two million shouldn't be a problem.

But that's about it. After all, there are monster encyclopedias and equipment encyclopedias here, and the attribute increases accumulate quite a bit.

Therefore, this equipment is only good for beginners to show off; once you reach a higher level, its practicality diminishes.

Most ordinary players use it to equip gear, etc.

"Do you still want gold coins?" Yu Jie asked with a grin.

He Sheng nodded, "Yeah, I'm poor, I'm short of money."

"You're short of money? Who would believe that?" Yu Jie didn't believe it.

A poor kid like me, at this level, definitely can't solo monsters here.

As she spoke, she threw a million gold coins on the ground.

"Hehe..." He Sheng chuckled, picked up the gold coins from the ground, and offered no explanation.

The two entered the second floor!

The second level entrance was filled with monsters, and the two continued clearing their way forward...

Occasionally, they would encounter a large group of players grinding monsters, but those people would only glance at Yu Jie and He Sheng from afar.

Even if He Sheng and his companion were farming monsters nearby, they didn't care.

Those who can get here are themselves symbols of strength and status.

Unless someone actually stays on their territory and refuses to leave, they won't bother with killing a few monsters.

He Sheng was also amazed when he checked the equipment of those people!

Basically, everyone who comes here has a set of excellent or better equipment.

Perfect sets are common, and legendary sets also exist...

They're all rich!
As for players with terrible gear, they do exist, but they are very rare.

To enter the Hell Skeleton Cave, you must be level 20 or higher.

For ordinary players who want to join, it's very difficult to establish themselves at level 20.

A large group of people coming over is likely to fall over.

Only Taoists at level 20 can become invisible, so you can take them down one by one.

But if it's going to be this slow, we might as well go to the hard map.

Those who can establish themselves here are all wealthy players.

With a full set of fashionable outfits and monster illustrations, plus a set of top-tier or better equipment, they can team up or solo as a Taoist. And very few of these people are willing to bring ordinary players here to fight monsters.

Unless the relationship is exceptionally close, the likelihood of someone making money by bringing others along is very low...

Half an hour later, He Sheng and Yu Jie encountered another elite monster.

Elite Skeleton Warriors!

Having already defeated the Hell Skeleton Spirit, defeating this one was naturally a piece of cake.

With Yu Jie's final blow, the monster fell!

However, the equipment scattered all over the ground left the two of them a little dumbfounded.

Only one fine yellow crystal necklace was found!

This necklace only has a base Taoist skill of 1-0.

This "excellent" version only has 2 points of accuracy added, so it's practically garbage.

I don't even know if anyone would want 10,000 gold coins...

"Why is it so unlucky this time? Did I run out of luck killing the Hell Skeleton Spirit?"

Yu Jie muttered, her face full of displeasure.

He Sheng frowned, paused for a moment, and asked casually, "You said before that the drop rate wasn't high when you were fighting bosses, just like this?"

Yu Jie nodded, "Yeah, pretty much. At best, we only have two beams of light equipment."

"I see... Next time I encounter a big monster, I'll try to land the final blow... Hehe..."

He Sheng was starting to wonder if he had a hidden drop rate.
"Oh my god! You doubt my character? Is it because I'm a bad person?" Yu Jie instantly understood what He Sheng meant and was speechless.

"Haha, how could that be? I just feel that my character might be better."

Because every time I hit something, it created several beams of light.

Yu Jie tilted her head and thought for a moment, "Really? That seems to be the case. I've seen other people's attacks only produce one or two beams of light."

"That's right, it just means you have good character, hahaha..."

"What month are you born in? How dare you call yourself 'brother'?" Yu Jie glared at him.

"My birthday is August 20th, what about yours?"

“I was born on the eleventh day of the sixth lunar month. From now on, you have to call me Big Sister when you see me, understand? Hehe…” Yu Jie smiled smugly.

He revealed a row of white teeth.

"Okay, sis." He Sheng deliberately elongated the word "sis."

This angered Yu Jie, who went up and stabbed him!

Health reduced by 0!

She's a Taoist priest, and her physical attacks aren't strong at all.

"By the way, does your family sell toothpaste?" Mr. He asked with a smile.

"No, why are you suddenly asking this?" Yu Jie was a little confused.

"Your teeth are so white and straight, it's a shame that toothpaste companies don't hire you as their spokesperson, haha..." He Sheng joked.

“Really? My friend thinks so too.” Yu Jie became even more smug, her face beaming with joy.

Her teeth were indeed very white and beautiful...

Of course, she's perfect in every other way!
In some places, it protrudes much more than the teeth...

Chatting as they fought their way towards the center of the map...

Nearby, there is a particularly narrow passageway where a hidden shop is located.

Not long after, the two arrived at their destination, passed through the stone cave, and entered the cave shop.

In my previous life, there was a shady businessman and a warehouse manager here.

Now...

He Sheng opened the shop and checked; the medicines and other items were twice as expensive as outside!
He's still a shrewd businessman after all!

But He Sheng has experiences from his previous life, so his feelings are different.

Because this is deep inside the instance.

If these items really needed to be transported by manpower and resources, doubling the price wouldn't be considered expensive.

Just like at the top of a mountain in a tourist attraction, if things need to be carried up by hand, selling you a bottle of mineral water for 10 yuan is considered cheap.

The main problem is that it's expensive to carry it up manually...
