Players’ NPC daddy

This is the advantage of choosing the [Forest Blessing] skill as a hunter profession. Although it is not written in black and white, the actual effect is that there is a higher probability of triggering emergency missions and hiding enemies in the forest.

But sometimes it can become a disadvantage because the intensity of the triggered emergency tasks is random.

Blaze became nervous. Although he had a slight advantage in terms of level, he had a natural overwhelming advantage in the monster's basic attributes.

The Nemean Lion King didn't look over, and shook his body lazily a few times, and his mane stained with thick blood made a terrible rustling sound. If you look closely, you will find that they are not hair at all, but scarlet venomous snakes.

I'm afraid people in foreign lands are scared out of their wits.

"Hidden, hidden, hidden -"

Listen, the voice starts to shake.

"Hidden monster!"

It was no less than the scream of the Demon King of Greed when he saw the endless treasure, the satisfaction of the Demon King of Jealousy in monopolizing glory, and the eagerness of the Demon King of Gluttony when facing a banquet full of men.

The Lancer and the Discipline Monk lost their fear and anxiety when facing the lionesses, and gasped with red eyes. The nun, on the other hand, blushed and ran away from Blaze's arms as if she was not in a situation.

Blazer paused, almost forgetting that strangers were never afraid of death. Since the people in the foreign land are not planning to escape, he will go all out. At least there is only one enemy now. If you want to win, you shouldn't...

[Skill proficiency has increased]

【Danger Sense FC】

Blaze turned his body sideways almost subconsciously, and a purple light rubbed his neck and hit the grass behind him. The brown soil turned gray instantly, and the poison created a circle of death with a diameter of 1 meter.

Just now, this guy launched a long-range attack without any forward motion! ?

Cold sweat broke out on Blaze's back.

The Lion King of Nemea half-closed his eyes, as if he hadn't woken up yet, but the manes on his neck that symbolized the king's status stood up, roaring in a threatening manner. Those are cobra-type parasitic monsters that maintain a strange symbiosis with the Nemean Lion King. Just now, one of these venomous snakes launched a venom spray attack.

If these poisonous snakes sprayed venom at the same time, the scene would probably be a drawing of hell.

"Do it!" the Lance Knight cursed. After seeing such a powerful venom spray, his enthusiasm for meeting the hidden enemy immediately cooled down a lot.

"Forget heavy armor and defense. This venom will 100% damage equipment. Just sacrifice defense in exchange for faster speed and agility."

"Not even a single mistake."

The nun once again entered the singing state, but this time she did not stand still, but ran.

[Singer], this directly kicks away the tone-deaf, is extremely difficult to obtain, and can assist almost all professions that require singing skills. Among them, the [Super Lung Capacity] skill allows the user to sing stably while running or singing.

As if they noticed something, the poisonous snakes suddenly turned around and looked at the running nuns. Each of them opened their mouths, and the two terrifying fangs emitted a terrifying purple light. From a distance, the Nemean Lion looked like It is a lit lantern.

"Can we really fire them all?!"

If this attack succeeds, it will undoubtedly lead to total annihilation.

[Throw...Cut...]

The vague voice sounded in Blaze's ears again. Without thinking much, he immediately picked up the twisted giant sword and threw it towards the Nemean Lion King, or to be precise, the poisonous snakes disguised as manes.

There was a flash of cold light, poisonous blood splashed everywhere, and the broken snake head that fell to the ground struggled and screamed, followed by a deafening roar of anger.

The Nemean Lion King, who had been in an embryonic state and in a hazy state of consciousness, woke up. A large part of his mane, which symbolized dignity, was lost, and his incomplete body was once again corroded and poisoned by the blood of the evil god.

The Beast King was angry.

"The only thing that is invulnerable under the protection of the skill is the lion's fur. Those parasitic venomous snake manes are not protected by the [Evil God's Curse]."

Blaze whispered a reminder to the three of them, completely forgetting that his words would be distorted by the helmet into the roar of a beast. But the three of them understood it and even felt a sense of security in the low roar.

The strongest Blaze withstood the hatred of the Nemean Lion King, and the sword kept exploding sparks on the Nemean Lion King's fur. It still didn't cause any damage, but it successfully attracted all the attention of the proud beast king.

The Lancer Knight and the Discipline Monk waited for the opportunity to attack, and from time to time interrupted the Nemean Lion King's attack movements to cut off the mane of the poisonous snake.

After a while of fighting, Blaze got a lot of information.

The Nemean Lion King probably betrayed the forest in the setting. His level was greatly reduced and most of his skills were lost, so his attacks became extremely simple and crude.

Pounce, grab, bite, flick, and roll are simple and crude. The most deadly thing is the poisonous snake's mane as a parasite. It will launch an incredibly destructive venom attack, but it will not attack at the same time as the Nemean Lion as its main body.

It seems that because the Nemean Lion is in an undeveloped embryonic state, the newly grown organs cannot cooperate with each other.

Although the attack of the viper's mane is very dangerous, there is a clear forward rocking movement, and the Nemean Lion King's body will obviously pause and let out a painful roar. Just like the poisonous snake's mane shoots out not just venom, but the blood from the body of the Nemean Lion.

As long as you keep inducing the Nemean Lion King's venomous snake mane to emit venom, the Nemean Lion King will cause damage to itself.

Blaze knew his chance was coming when the Viper's mane made a pose to fire out venom, but only coughed dryly.

Approaching at high speed, [Butterfly Dance Step] brushed against Nemean Lion King's claws, and [Bee Sting Punch] hit Nemean Lion King on the nose. The lion's fur can be ineffective in slashing or piercing attacks, and direct punching damage is not high, but it can cause effective damage to fragile and sensitive areas such as the nose.

The Nemean Lion staggered and took a step back. Blaze took the opportunity to step forward and strangled the Nemean Lion's neck tightly. The dense venomous snake manes burst one by one under the pressure of the dark armor and the lion's skin. Come.

The Lancer raised his gun and stuck it in. The Discipline Monk struck out with both fists and restrained the two front paws of the Nemean Lion respectively. The Sister adjusted all the assistance to increase the strength value.

"Roar ah ah -"

"Ahhhh-"

The Nemean Lion King and Blaze started roaring and wrestling at the same time. Blaze took a step forward and forcibly pushed up the upper body of the Nemean Lion King. Through the armor, Blaze could hear the beating of blood vessels under the skin of the Nemean Lion King, as well as the gradually weaker struggle.

[Unlocked skill: Strangulation]

Blaze tightened his arms suddenly, and his hands covered in heavy armor were twisted like a vise. After a crisp sound of bone cracking, the head of the Nemean Lion King went soft.

Chapter 9 An explosive night with a stranger

Why skills are needed? A more detailed question is, if anyone can do an ordinary punch, then why should we go out of our way to learn skills such as [straight punch] and [jab].

The answer is that you can exert your power better.

It is impossible for human muscles to exert 100% of their power at all times. No matter how terrible the power is, it can only exert a small part of it most of the time, and skills are the key to unlocking limitations.

Generally speaking, 100 strength can deal 90 damage, and after using skills, it can deal 100 to 120 damage.

[Strangle E], when using this skill, the strength can be increased by 1.2 times. With the help of the nun, it was possible to successfully break the neck of the Nemean Lion.

The body of the Nemean Lion turned into dust and disappeared, leaving a huge lion skin in Blaze's hand. Blaze casually put the lion skin on his shoulders and opened the blessing.

[Honor value 61/1000]

It's still early to lift the curse of the armor, but I didn't expect that [Close to Nature] has become [Nature's Guidance]. Obviously the Nemean Lion King has brought a lot of special experience points.

"Huh?" There was something new that he had never seen next to the monkey's hand in the warehouse, a black stone dotted with small lights.

【Fragments of Stars】

[The light from late summer and early autumn guides human beings’ inner potential and soul. 】

【use or not】

Blaze chose to use it without much thought. The stone shattered and a dim light entered his body.

[Obtained: Constellation Power F]

"Don't feel anything?" Blaze clenched his fist. There was no change in his physical attributes, and the power of the constellation did not show any effect.

It's like the skill of this thing is just to make room for the warehouse.

"Forget it, it's good to make room."

"Um...thank you for your help this time." This time it was the captain of the three, Lancer Knight, who came to say hello and was much more frank.

"Let's form a team together in the future."

As soon as he finished speaking, the Lance Knight was amused by his own words, although he didn't know what happened to turn the Black Beast Knight, who was supposed to be the regional BOSS, into a friendly NPC that wandered around and helped the players. But what he said was like treating the Black Beast Knight as a friendly player he met by chance.

"I will post the fact that you have become a friendly NPC on the communication board, so you don't have to worry about being attacked again." The Discipline Monk scratched the back of his head.

"Um... I have a concert in Crete in a month. Do you want to come and see it?" The nun blushed and stammered, holding a ticket in her hands and handing it to Blazer.

[Admission Ticket to Epidaurus Theater]

After Blaise accepted it, the nun immediately covered her face and ran away shyly. After running a few steps, she turned into a transparent square and disappeared.

It actually went offline directly.

The Lancer and the Discipline Monk looked at each other.

She just gave a teleportation scroll to a regional BOSS that can be teleported directly to a gathering place where thousands or even tens of thousands of unsuspecting players will gather.

The Spear Knight winked, while the Discipline Monk crossed his arms and shook his head helplessly.

At this time, the Lance Knight discovered that the Black Beast Knight was still in their team.

The Black Beast Knight triggered the emergency response of the friendly NPC to join the team because the nun was in danger. Now that the nun is offline... He had a sudden idea and asked Blaze: "Can you stay with us for a while?"

Blaze thought for a moment and nodded in agreement. Although I don’t know what grinding means, it’s nice to be able to continue defeating monsters as a team. Although the experience points will be divided equally, the relative efficiency will become higher.

All three of them are professionals who can be used as both human shields and damage output. Everyone only needs to wield their weapons with all their strength.

【This way...】

Blaze heard the sound again, this time it was clearer, and he could clearly see a faint guide composed of light points.

[Natural Guidance State], can clearly know the location of the Titan hybrids.

Blazer waved to the Lancer and the Monk, then took the lead and ran. This time, they weren't running near the dangerous Hundred-Treated Ganges River, but in the forest. But the enemy wasn't a hybrid monkey, but a herd of goats, a herd of upright goats.

This is not a goat man, but a trembling goat that maintains a human posture. Even Blaze, who was wearing armor, felt the chill for a moment, but it quickly disappeared because the Lancer and the Discipline Monk went berserk.

"Man-eating sheep? It's a huge experience package!"

"I'm going to train the knight to the fullest today and transfer to heresy judge!"

Blaze, the Lancer, and the Discipline Monk spent the entire night killing Titan hybrids, and it wasn't until the sun rose that they realized they hadn't rested all night.

"I, I feel in good condition, but my steps are a little weak."

"I can still have liver——"

The Discipline Monk shouted, and his body turned into a virtual block and disappeared.

Blaze is not surprised. Strangers cannot exist in this world for a long time. If they continue to exist for too long, they will be forcibly expelled. It is said that the disappeared strangers are resting in another world.

"Damn it, I'm going to be forced offline soon, damn underage agreement!" The Lancer grabbed his head hard and shouted unwillingly.

When facing enemies other than the Nemean Lion, the Black Beast Knight can kill all enemies in one blow. It is so fun to play with the Black Beast Knight, and he is not willing to log off and leave the team.

Seeing that the Lancer was about to disappear, Blaze quickly touched his body.

The next day, the copper coins appeared again.

Blaze walked towards the Lancer, opened his hand, and handed him three copper coins.

"What is this?" The Lancer picked up three copper coins. Before he could ask, the system displayed a red warning of timeout.

"Ah! Wait! Ah!"

The Lancer also turned into a virtual cube and disappeared, leaving Blaze alone in the empty forest.

Blaze shrugged, opened the blessing, and checked the results of his night's efforts.
