"boom".

A huge round stone appeared out of nowhere between the two of them, like a wall that suddenly rose up.

The gray wolf, charging at full speed, had no time to brake and crashed headfirst into the meter-thick rock.

"Thump".

A dull thud rang out, and the gray wolf was knocked senseless, its head buzzing, and its body was thrown back several steps.

Its simple-minded beastly brain couldn't understand why a large rock would suddenly appear out of the air. It didn't make sense.

However, Xu Tian's operation had only just begun.

Taking advantage of the moment when the gray wolf was dizzy, he instantly switched the round stone in his hand into an iron pickaxe.

"when".

The pickaxe struck the round stone in front of him with precision.

In this world, players can mine the blocks they've placed extremely quickly. With a crisp sound, the cobblestone that has just performed its function instantly crumbles and disappears.

The moment the round stone disappeared, his right hand, which had been poised to strike, suddenly thrust out.

"die".

A flash of cold light appeared first, followed by the spear thrusting out like a dragon.

The gray wolf had just recovered from the impact and was preparing to go around the rock to attack when the rock suddenly exploded.

Immediately afterwards, a flash of silver light rapidly approached in its dilated pupils.

"Pfft".

It tried its best to dodge to the side and avoid its heart, but the sharp spear still pierced its left hind leg.

"Ow!"

A piercing scream echoed through the forest.

The immense penetrating force shattered its leg bone, causing blood to gush out.

The excruciating pain instantly distorted its movements, turning its once agile body into a staggering limp.

It glanced fearfully at the strange man in the metal suit, and its survival instinct made it turn and try to run away.

But the spear stuck in his leg felt like a heavy shackle, causing excruciating pain with every movement, and he could move at less than half his usual speed.

"The combat style of this MC feature is quite diverse."

Xu Tian watched the gray wolf limping as it tried to escape, but did not give chase.

He slowly took out a wooden bow from behind his back, nocked an arrow, and drew the bowstring to its full extent.

"Whoosh".

The arrow sliced ​​through the air and pierced the gray wolf's nape with pinpoint accuracy.

The gray wolf let out a mournful howl, its massive body twitched a few times, and then remained completely still.

Xu Tian stepped forward, stepped on the wolf carcass, and forcefully pulled out the spear, the tip of which was covered in blood.

"I wonder if this wolf from another world has any special materials on it."

He put away his weapon and reached out to grab one of the wolf carcasses' hind legs.

Dragging the heavy wolf carcass, they moved slowly along the edge of the forest in Asheria.

"System, besides eating meat, what other uses does this thing have?"

Xu Tian asked in his heart.

"For example, can we directly absorb its life energy and convert it into attribute points or special materials?"

The system's cold, mechanical voice rang out.

[No, these ordinary beast corpses do not contain high-level energy, and direct absorption will not provide any special benefits.]

After defeating a magical beast, you can use the [Biological Recycling Device] to recycle and decompose it.

Immediately afterwards, a new task notification popped up in Xu Tian's mind.

[System Task Released: Ecological Sample Collection]

Objective: Kill a monster and retrieve it.

[Reward: 500 Energy Points, One Bio-Recycling Device]

[Note: The recycling device can convert monster corpses into energy points. The host can then exchange these energy points for gold coins at the exchange rate, which will be distributed to players as mission rewards.]

Xu Tian's eyes lit up.

"So that's how it is, this is the positive cycle."

He was worried that relying on system subsidies would lead to running out of money, but now it's all coming from the people themselves.

Players are sent to fight monsters, which are then recycled into energy. This energy is then converted into gold coins and distributed to the players, with the middleman making a profit from the difference.

"In that case, let's give them a new task."

Xu Tian pondered the distribution of the rewards.

"So how much gold should I give to the players? Hmm, I'll take half of all the energy I absorb from now on. After all, I need to save up energy points to buy new mods for them to play with, and I also need to maintain the server. Charging a 50% handling fee isn't excessive, is it? That's already very generous."

With this in mind, Xu Tian felt at ease and edited a new task, then clicked send.

In the MC continent, Chen Xu and his friends, who had just woken up and logged in, were wandering around their respective territories.

Suddenly, a task box popped up in the center of everyone's field of vision.

[Long-term Quest: Interdimensional Hunting]

Objective: Travel to the continent of Eisheria and defeat the monsters.

Submission method: Place the monster corpse into the [Recycling Device].

Rewards: Receive corresponding gold coins and contribution points based on your Warcraft level.

"Holy crap? There's a new mission."

Chen Xu shouted in the voice channel.

"Brothers, wanna go? Let's go kill some monsters, finally we can start fighting them."

Yang Qinyu's voice sounded hesitant.

"How are we supposed to kill someone with this gear? Don't forget there's a death penalty in this game. If you die, all your gear drops. What if we lose the fight or get ambushed? We'll lose everything!"

"I think it's better to play it safe."

She suggested.

"First, develop your strength in the surrounding area, or practice against lone wild beasts."

Niu Niu chimed in.

“Indeed, our current attack methods are too limited. We should at least make some new weapons for the module first. It’s not too late to go after we have something handy.”

Upon hearing the word "module," Chen Xu immediately deflated like a punctured balloon.

"Damn it, don't even mention mods. I want to play with the new weapons too, but I'm still short of those two damn coins."

At that moment, Life is Like the First Meeting, controlling Steve, walked over.

"Old Cat, try this."

He took an exquisitely crafted dagger out of his backpack and threw it on the ground.

"This is a dagger I just made using a module. Pick it up and see if you can use it. If you can, then in the future, everyone can make equipment for each other as long as one person unlocks the module, which will save money."

Chen Xu's eyes lit up, and he quickly went over and picked up the dagger.

However, his expression froze the next second.

From his perspective, although he could see that he was holding a dagger, no attribute panel popped up.

Chapter 18 666 Server Owner is cheating, shouldn't he be kicked?

When he tried to swing or attack, the dagger was like a phantom without a physical form, passing right through the wooden stake in front of him without even a single damage number appearing.

[System notification: You have not unlocked the relevant module permissions and cannot use this item]

"really……"

Chen Xu sighed and tossed the dagger back to Chu Jian.

"The game designers know how to make money. If you don't buy the mods, this thing is just a model in my hands. You can only look at it but not use it. Everyone has to pay money to unlock it."

Xi Xi's slightly weathered, middle-aged voice rang out in the audio.

"I knew it. This game is so hardcore, how could it leave such a loophole for us to exploit? This 20 gold coins is a necessary entry fee."

A moment of silence fell over everyone.

This means that if you don't grind for gold coins, you'll miss out on the game's advanced content.

At this moment, Liu Shenwu spoke up, breaking the deadlock.

"Um... First meeting, Lao Xi, how about you lend me and Lao Mao a couple of gold coins? Anyway, there's only this one module in the shop right now, and you don't have anywhere to spend the gold coins you have left."

"Why don't you lend it to us first? Once we buy the modules and everyone's combat power increases, we can go fight monsters together and earn money to pay you back."

"Moreover, as the saying goes, there will be war in the future. We are a team, and the weakest link can be fatal."

Upon hearing this, everyone agreed that it made perfect sense.

Gold coins are just sitting around gathering dust; it's better to convert them into real-time combat power for the team.

"Okay, let's make a deal."

"Life is Like the First Meeting" and Xi Xi readily agreed, transferring two gold coins each to Chen Xu and Liu Shenwuzhu.

"Ding! Ding!"

As soon as the gold coins arrived, Chen Xu and Liu Shenwu couldn't wait to open the store and instantly purchased the [Craftsmanship] module.

At this point, all six players in the first test have unlocked the new gameplay.
