Apocalypse Lord

Chapter 43: summer 2

Views:

Overnight, the salt fires.

Originally, it sold 5-10 copies a day, and a lot of inventory was hoarded in the warehouse. But on this day, 450 copies were sold at once, and some people waved copper coins, saying that they would buy them from the players at a high price.

The change in wind direction was too sudden.

Before many residents could realize what was going on, the salt was sold out.

studio.

Yun Ling asked Zhang Heng, "Salt is in short supply, is there any way to increase production?"

"Yes, yes, but professional equipment is needed." Zhang Heng's face was full of helplessness, "It's the end of the world, the house has been devoured by monsters, how can there be professional instruments?"

Yun Ling lowered his head and said nothing.

After a while, she raised her head with sharp eyes, "What if someone looted a batch of professional instruments before the house collapsed?"

"You mean..." Zhang Heng hesitated.

Yun Ling said bluntly, "I want to go shopping in the nearby territories, maybe there will be some unexpected gains."

"Can I not go?" Zhang Heng asked in a low voice.

As a researcher, he doesn't want to leave the safe zone unless necessary.

"It's ok if you don't go, you can draw me a drawing and tell me what are the so-called professional instruments. I'll buy it when I see it, and bring it back to you when I see it." Yun Ling said.

Zhang Heng was overjoyed, "This is no problem!"

He is very confident about his painting level.

"Okay, you are busy, give me the painting before 8 o'clock tomorrow morning." It is rare to visit other territories, and Yun Ling needs to prepare in advance.

**

Enter the tailor's shop.

The Fire Feather Cloak, worth 3000 copper coins, is still not bought.

Yun Ling asked Tailor Armor to take off the cloak and put it into his backpack - when necessary, the cloak and dagger can be replaced. She wears a cloak and concentrates on defense, and surrounding enemies will automatically be damaged by fire spells.

He took the cloak and ten capes.

"Sir," Tailor A reminded, "the weather is hot and the sun is poisoning now, so you can put the hat in the tailor's shop without worrying about selling it."

"I know." Yun Ling didn't care, "I have other uses for these."

Hearing this, Tailor Armor stopped talking.

**

Enter the restaurant.

Yunling instructed NPCs to prepare rice soup, rice cakes, and sandwiches tomorrow morning.

Among them, the amount of rice soup must be sufficient. To avoid serious water loss, causing a negative state.

"Yes, my lord." Chef A and B responded respectfully.

Chef C asked, "I wonder if the adults need other food?"

Yunling: What I really want is the iced sour plum soup...

Forget it, the raw materials are insufficient to make it, and the more I think about it, the more greedy I get.

Yun Ling waved his hand and said, "No need."

"Yes." Chef C then withdrew.

**

Day 43.

Early in the morning, Zhang Heng handed in the drawings and specified the required equipment.

The collection team gathered early and waited to set off.

Yun Ling instructed the bodyguard, "Today you lead the team, and pay attention to safety on the road."

"Yes." The bodyguard responded in a deep voice.

It is not the first time that the armor has led a team out. In the past, it has always brought people back, and it has been very rewarding. Therefore, Yun Ling was not worried at all.

After a few words of advice, she walked alone in the direction of Sunset Village.

After a 20-minute walk, there were only trees and bamboo forests around, and everything that could eat was dug up.

After walking for 35 minutes, I saw some wild vegetables, sweet potatoes, and rice fields sporadically.

After walking for 50 minutes, the resources suddenly became abundant.

Yun Ling tried his best to suppress the crazy Cai Cai Cai's thoughts. She thought to herself that the main purpose of this trip was to go to other territories to purchase professional equipment. If you have time, you can walk around nearby, and you can't waste time on collection.

So she wrote down the ingredients, refreshed the location, and moved on.

The scorching sun was high, and the people in the sun were sweating and their mouths were dry.

Seeing that he had walked more than half of the way, Yun Ling found a tree shade and sat down, while resting, drinking rice soup to replenish water.

"It's really hot." She wiped the sweat from her forehead and thought to herself, "Looks like it's time for NPCs to learn to weave bamboo fans/banana fans. How can I do without a fan on a hot day?"

Although the physical strength attribute is very high, it is easy to not get negative conditions, but the feeling of sultry heat is not good.

"I'm starting to miss ice cream, mung bean soup, watermelon juice, and rainbow smoothies."

Thinking of summer drinks, Yunling especially misses the past life.

"click-"

There was a sound of branches being smashed around.

Yun Ling was immediately alert, "Who?!"

Two young people and a middle-aged person appeared.

The oldest and the oldest-looking one said solemnly, "Hand over the hat, hand over the backpack, and I can spare you."

Yun Ling: Ha ha.

Yun Ling: You don't have to.

"You can't kill me alone." She said lazily, "Don't waste your energy, just go."

"Arrogant!" The middle-aged man snorted coldly, raised his staff, and cast his skills, "Mental shock! Curse of darkness!"

At the same time, a young man pulled a bow and shot an arrow, and a young man held a wooden stick tightly and charged towards Yun Ling without saying a word.

In order to facilitate the journey, Yun Ling wore a hat (white), soft armor (purple), a pair of cotton shoes (blue) on his feet, and a ring of bulls (purple) on his hands. All other equipment was put in a cotton backpack.

Seeing the opponent rushing up regardless, she took out the shield from the cotton backpack and prepared to fight.

Who knew that it was not a fish scale shield, but a round shield.

Yun Ling, "?"

She suddenly remembered that she planned to pretend to be an ordinary player and sneak into Sunset Village, so she prepared ordinary quality equipment in advance. Unexpectedly, before reaching the destination, I started fighting with people...

The situation was urgent, Yun Ling didn't have time to think about it, he raised his round shield to face the enemy melee players.

Spell hits.

The next second, the middle-aged man vomited blood and exclaimed, "Be careful! She's hurt!"

"Ah?!" The archer was startled, but three arrows were fired one after another.

At the same time, another young man used his skill, "Banstick."

"Hey, it hurts to hit him!" Yun Ling accidentally got hit with a stick, and immediately protested angrily.

Before he finished speaking, the three enemies fell together, and the equipment, cards, copper coins, and materials exploded on the ground.

Yun Ling, "???"

Is it that crispy

Looking at the three again, Yun Ling realized that although the other party was wearing 2-3 blue suits, they were all attacking suits, and none of them had any physical strength. If the free attribute is also a strength/intelligence bonus and focuses on attacking, then the survivability is indeed extremely poor.

"In general, you still learn to rob people, who are you!" Yun Ling picked up the drop and sighed heavily, "When will I be able to get S-rank stone skin? It's really not good, A-rank can also be used alive!"

**

Yun Ling thought that the three-person team he met was an example. After resting for more than 20 minutes, her health returned to full value. She stood up and continued walking towards Sunset Village.

As a result, someone else blocked the way.

The routines are the same, harsh words, extortion, and attempts to deceive her equipment.

The only difference is that the last time there were three people, this time there were five people, and the scale was larger than before.

"Heh." Yun Ling laughed angrily.

"Smile!" The assassin was furious, and without waiting for the captain's order, he used the skill "Sprint" to rush to the target.

He intends to preempt the attack and hit the opponent high.

As for the other party being a girl, there is only one person who acts - it's the end of the world, who cares if a girl is a girl or not! The best way to get the benefits!

The Assassin attacked violently, thinking that he could catch the opponent by surprise, but as soon as he rushed to the target, he was severely smashed by the shield-the fight was over before the fish scale shield could be taken out.

This time, Yun Ling behaved well and took the fish scale shield in his hand early in the morning.

The Assassin was smashed, and his eyes flashed with gold stars.

Yun Ling said word by word, "I'm not someone you can provoke, get out of here if you're sensible!"

"It's just a little girl, you can brag." The sneak attackers believed that the number of people was superior and they were confident of winning.

As soon as the voice fell, the other four came up. The archery of the archery, the close-up close-up, the throwing skill of the throwing skill.

Yun Ling's eyes were cold and he fought back.

When the assassin was injured and died, the group of talents woke up like a dream, "Sun! She is injured, hurry up!"

In the blink of an eye, the other four disappeared.

Yun Ling was too lazy to chase, and only picked up the white equipment, 3 copper coins, and 2 balls of silk threads dropped by the assassin, and then sat on the ground to rest.

In just half an hour's walking distance, Yun Ling walked for more than two hours.

Every time they walked a certain distance, a team would come out to rob. Sometimes it even came in a row, trying to pick up leaks while she was in poor condition.

Wearing 1 orange, 3 purple, 1 blue and 1 white, it is useless to show force, and wearing 1 blue and 5 white, it is useless to show that you are a poor ghost.

Yun Ling was speechless.

She carried materials in a nesting doll style, with a cotton backpack in each of the five compartments of the cotton backpack, and a backpack in one compartment, and she had to turn over the items twice each time. Sometimes there are misunderstandings, and there are also cases of accidentally picking up the wrong item.

6*5+1, a total of 31 grids. Pick up cards, equipment, copper coins, and materials along the way, and the storage compartment is more than half full.

Later, Yun Ling simply ignored the other party's obstruction, turned his head and ran away when he saw someone.

Because she was wearing blue quality cotton shoes, not many players could catch up to her. Either an assassin with high attack and low defense, or an archer with thin skin and low attack.

Such people often attack once, and they will be frightened by the amount of blood they drop. Then pretended not to be able to catch up and let Yun Ling leave.

Of course, there are also those who rely on force and are particularly stubborn.

There is an assassin purple shoes, a purple face towel, and a purple dagger, which seems to be a good mix.

Seeing Yunling sullenly "running away", he sneered and quickly chased after him.

After catching up... Purple shoes, blue wrist guards, A-level skill cards, S-level skill cards, primary collection skill cards, and a lot of scattered pieces appeared.

Yun Ling smiled rudely.

The moment she stepped into Sunset Village, the system suddenly sounded a prompt, "You have discovered "Sunset Village". 】

Yun Ling felt sad and wanted to cry.

This journey has not been easy!

It's not just her who is working hard, but also the cotton backpack. Look, they are all fat!

Because he had picked up too many items, he might encounter any kind of attack on the way back, so Yun Ling set up a stall on the spot and planned to sell all the white-quality equipment.

She had just set up the stall when a middle-aged uncle hurried over and lowered his voice, "Why did you take all these things out? Put them away!"

Yun Ling looked puzzled, "But it's useless for me to keep it, it's better to sell it for money."

The middle-aged uncle sighed again and again, "Are you new to Sunset Village?"

Yun Ling was surprised, can you see that

"After staying in Sunset Village for a long time, you will understand the truth of 'wealth does not reveal whiteness'." The middle-aged uncle spoke quickly, "Listen to my advice, hurry up and leave here, it will be too late!"

"Hey, there is equipment for sale here."

Hearing the danger Langdang's voice, the middle-aged uncle turned pale as if he had seen a ghost, lowered his head and left quickly.

Yun Ling, "…"

Just looking at the uncle's expression, she almost thought she was not in the safe zone.

A young man walked from far to near. He dyed his head yellow and looked like a jerk. At this moment, he squatted down and picked it up, "Cloth armor, durability 12/20, price 20 copper coins? Expensive, 5 A copper coin is about the same."

"Wooden stick, durability 10/20, price 15 copper coins? It's really beautiful, I will accept 3 copper coins."

"Cloth shoes, the durability is 14/20. I think the price of 7 copper coins is quite suitable."

Finally, he waved his hand, "One price, 15 copper coins, I want all of them!"

Yun Ling: "What are you dreaming about in broad daylight?"

It can be seen that there are not many living players in Sunset Village, so the value of the equipment depends to a large extent on the durability.

Cloth shoes have the highest durability and therefore the highest value.

Sticks have the lowest durability and therefore the lowest value.

However, in Lingyun Town, this is not the case at all.

There are the most people who weave straw shoes, the most production, and therefore the cheapest. The production of wooden sticks, wooden spears and bamboo spears is relatively low, and the value is relatively high.

Like cloth armor that only tailor shops can produce, even if the durability is low, the price will not be so low.

Having said that, the yellow-haired youth quoting 15 copper coins is completely nonsense.

Since the other party was rude, Yun Ling showed no mercy, and scolded him when he opened his mouth.

The yellow-haired youth suddenly lowered his face and said sullenly, "It's not a good habit to have a straight temper, and it's easy to offend people. Your parents and your mother never taught you to laugh at others, and to put peace as the most precious thing in everything?"

Yun Ling: "I haven't taught you before, kneel down."

If she didn't crawl away, she was afraid that she couldn't help holding the knife.

The yellow-haired youth's expression was even more ugly, "Don't think this is a safe zone, you'll be fine! I don't believe it, you'll never go out for the rest of your life!"

Yun Ling said indifferently, "What if you go out? You think you can catch up with me wearing a pair of white cloth shoes? It's stupid and bad, and it smells like scum."

The yellow-haired youth's complexion was blue and white, and he was almost mad. His own strength is not very good, but his brother leads the strongest team in the area.

He has been showing off his power in Sunset Village for a long time, who will not give him a third face when he sees him? When have you met a thorn like Yunling? He satirized and ridiculed, and almost didn't call him a fool.

"Wait for me!" Huang Fa youth said harshly.

Yun Ling: "No wait, don't see you later, I'm tired."

The young man with yellow hair was so angry that he wanted to grab Yun Ling's collar.

The system prompt sounds at the right time, [Player "Zeng Jun", the system has detected that you have a tendency to attack players in the safe zone, please stop your behavior in time. 】

[Five violations, you will be blacklisted and permanently banned from the territory. 】

For the first time, the yellow-haired youth, Zeng Jun, couldn't hold back his violent temper, so he started with people in the safe area.

Seeing the system prompt, he became even more angry - what a spicy chicken system! If he violates the rules five times, he will be expelled from the territory? !

Seeing this, he not only did not retreat, but stepped forward. Unfortunately, just as he was about to grab the collar, he was blocked by an invisible wall.

At the same time, the system prompts, [Player "Zeng Jun" violated the second violation, please stop your behavior in time. 】

[Five violations, you will be blacklisted and permanently banned from the territory. 】

The second line of text is enlarged and bold, and the color is still blood red, as if some kind of warning. Zeng Jun beat drums in his heart and couldn't help but be afraid.

Yun Ling made up for the knife in a timely manner, "You can't help me in the safe zone, and the same is true outside the safe zone. Climb away quickly and don't get in the way."

Zeng Jun's face was extremely ugly, but he didn't dare to violate the system's intentions, so he could only walk away unwillingly.

"Fuck! Awesome!" Seeing Zeng Jun leaving in disgust, some residents squatted down happily, pretending to choose equipment, but in fact secretly talking to Yunling.

"It's not a relative, not a relationship, so there's no need to get used to it." Yun Ling looked indifferent.

"You don't know." The customer lowered his voice and whispered to Yunling Popular Science, "Zeng Jun himself is a straw bag, and he can't find any flowers. His brother Zeng Xu is very good! I heard that there are two orange suits!"

"Oh, is it?" Yun Ling was indifferent.

I just got a pair of purple shoes, so if I can't beat a sneak attack, I can still run away.

If the other party deliberately wants to teach her a lesson, I am afraid they will be disappointed.

"Why are so many of you here so virtuous?" Yun Ling endured for a long time, and finally couldn't help but ask, "On the way to the territory, several groups of people robbed, all asking for money (equipment) and not dying."

"Isn't this forced to do nothing?" The customer was also desperate, "It's the end of the world, and the world has changed. In order to survive, what can't these people do?"

"What about you?" Yun Ling wondered, "Isn't it enough to leave Sunset Village and live in other territories?"

The customer smiled bitterly, "How can it be as simple as you said! The ghostly virtue of Sunset Village can be cured by going to other territories?"

He hadn't seen it before, and he couldn't imagine what it would be like in a doomsday game where everyone was happy and worked together to discuss life.

Yun Ling pouted, "Lingyun Town is much better than Sunset Village. I go in and out every day, and I have never seen anyone looting."

"Really or not?" the customer was dubious, "is there really such a good place?"

He thought for a moment, showing a wry smile, "It's useless to say this, many teams outside the territory are watching, and now they can't leave if they want to."

"There are people watching at night? They don't go back to the village? Can't walk alone, can't invite friends to go on the road?" Yun Ling asked one after another, and finally concluded, "Instead of staying in Sunset Village and being bullied every day, it is better to fight hard and give Find your own way out.”

The customer stared blankly at Yun Ling, but did not respond for a long time.

Suddenly, he asked, "Could you be a lobbyist sent by Lingyun Town to trick people over to work as a coolie?"

Yun Ling was quite speechless, "This trip is considered a businessman. Who knows that there are more bad guys along the way than I have ever seen in the game combined!"

"So that's the case." The customer smiled shyly.

He has seen all the individuals or teams of the runners, more or less before. Later, the security of Sunset Village got worse and worse, and everyone stopped coming here.

Those who have the ability to leave do not want to stay in this ghost place and be afraid all day long.

With this addition and subtraction, the number of residents in the territory has become increasingly rare, and the development has been particularly slow.

In fact, people used to gather resources and sell them. It's just that either a team buys it at a low price, or it has been set up for a long time, and no one cares.

If you can't make up the overnight fee, you will be thrown out of the territory by the system at night. Out of desperation, players have given up their life careers and become combat-oriented talents.

No one is collecting, NPCs do not have enough raw materials to make equipment, and the business of the system store is cold.

If you can't buy good equipment, you can only grab other people's, and the atmosphere of Sunset Village is even worse.

Then the vicious circle, the situation worse and worse.

In fact, this customer is ready for the territory to be breached. He thinks that sooner or later, he will always die.

But after listening to Yun Ling's words, he suddenly felt that it would be okay to try to live in another territory, anyway, the situation would not be worse than it is now.

"You let me think about it, you let me think about it." The customer lowered his eyes and thought deeply.

Yun Ling, "…"

After thinking about it, don't sit here, she still has business.

Pedestrians come and go, and the flow is endless, and few people stop to ask the price.

Occasionally someone wants to buy it, and the price is so low that people can't wait to smoke him.

"Don't buy it." Yun Ling sighed and put away the items one by one.

Then she asked someone, "In the beginning of the game, you searched the stores around the territory. Did you find any more exotic products, such as experimental instruments?"

The other party looked surprised, "You can't eat or drink that thing, so why bring it back?"

Yun Ling, "…"

She found that it was a mistake to go to Sunset Village after all the hard work.

I didn't see what I wanted, and there were countless battles along the way, and the difficulty was comparable to learning from the West.

"Forget it," Yun Ling thought to himself, "Let's go back early, and visit other territories another day."

Because she might encounter an ambush when she went out, she specially ate the multi-grain buns and put on the strongest defensive equipment.

After a while, Yun Ling was wearing soft armor, a fire feather cloak on his back, moccasin boots on his feet, a ring of strength and a ring of bulls in his left hand, and a fish scale shield in his right hand.

In order to ensure her own safety, she did not even wear a hat. Dressed in purple, he walked out of Sunset Village generously.

**

"Brother, it's her!" Zeng Jun said resentfully in the shadows.

Zeng Xu was wearing a black robe and frowned, "Strange, why does this woman look familiar?"

"Brother, you must have misremembered." Zeng Jun said in a determined tone, "She doesn't even know who I am, so she must be a foreigner. If someone like this is killed, kill them, and no companion will stand up for her. ."

The assassins in the team frowned into the word "Chuan", "Holding a shield, it should be a tank. 6 pieces of purple equipment, it is not easy to deal with at first sight. If you insist on fighting, you may lose your manpower."

Zeng Jun was anxious, "Then you just watch her humiliate me!"

The assassin didn't say a word, but the meaning was clear - how much is your face worth? Is it worth their trouble to set traps and deal with high game play

Zeng Jun was angry enough, but he didn't dare to be arrogant, so he scolded people directly. You know, all the members of the team are good players, and their combat effectiveness is not bad.

He turned his head and asked his brother for help, "Brother! She slapped me in the face on the face, but she's actually slapping you in the face! If you don't have such a bad temper, how will the rest of the territory obey us?"

"Okay." Zeng Xu glanced at his brother and said lightly, "I will handle this matter, you go back to the safe area first."

Zeng Jun was obedient.

Halfway through the road, a cold voice sounded, "Next time you cause trouble for me, don't give up!"

Zeng Jun's body froze and nodded hastily.

"Boss, do you really want to do something to her?" the assassin asked softly.

"No matter how powerful she is, can she beat the boss?" Zeng Xu asked rhetorically.

"Right."

The assassin thought about it, his boss is a super invincible lucky star! Going to hunt in the woods, I encountered two bosses fighting, and both lost.

Kill the bosses separately, explode an orange staff, and speed up the return to the blue ring, instantly increase the strength and become a peak player.

This legendary experience of the boss has been talked about by countless people. Everyone secretly hoped that they would be the next Zeng Xu.

Unfortunately, there is only one lucky person, so their team is the strongest in Sunset Village.

Thinking that the mage is originally a fort occupation, the boss has both control skills and orange equipment blessings, and the attack power is extremely high, the assassin immediately settled in his heart.

"Old rule, I'll control the field, and you guys will make up for it." Zeng Xu said in a hurry, "The opponent has only one person, and the survivability is strong, but the attack ability is weak. The offense and defense are balanced, and the defense and HP are average. They are all smart. , don't let her run away."

The seven team members looked solemn, "Yes!"

After the arrangement was properly arranged, Zeng Xu saw the machine throwing out his skills, "Tangling."

Then, he used the single attack skills "Spell Missile" and "Dark Energy" one after another, and the group attack skills "Meteor Shower". Seeing that, he vowed to put his target to death.

Teammates are ready. When it was too late, everyone rushed out, picked up the guy, and attacked the target in unison.

When the spell hits, the opponent does not see anything, but his own blood volume drops rapidly.

At the last moment of his life, Zeng Xu suddenly remembered why he thought this woman was familiar, "Female tank
