After storing the cane in the warehouse, changing into leather shoes (level limit 10), and buying medicine and food, Bai Xiaoyu found that he had run out of money again and there was no leftover orz. But anyway, there are still some equipment and props left by the rotting corpses in the warehouse that have not been disposed of, and they are not considered poor.
Go straight to the bulletin board, hand in the rotting corpse task, and take it again, anyway, this task can be repeated. Although seeing the rotten corpse was a bit disgusting, Bai Xiaoyu didn't bother to go to other main cities to study the undead missions there.
After leaving the south gate, we went deep into the woods without hindrance.
"Meow!" The kitten suddenly cried out nervously.
Bai Xiaoyu hesitated, won't meet the boss, will he? Even the small bosses in low-level monsters can't be handled by themselves, what should I do? !
"Shusha~" The sound of stepping on the grass suddenly sounded behind Bai Xiaoyu, and quickly moved from far to near.
Just as he was about to take out the scroll to return to the city, Bai Xiaoyu felt a pain in his right shoulder, his blood volume dropped by half in an instant, and the little wooden staff almost dropped from his hand. I staggered forward, and the thought that flashed through my mind was not lamenting my bad luck, but rejoicing that the kitten was sitting on my left shoulder. If it was injured, I would feel sorry for it.
But the feeling of being injured is very strange, like being scratched by a metal weapon, not a monster's claws. Humanoid monsters are relatively advanced, so it is impossible to appear here. Could it be a player? !
"The player is attacking you, and the PK mode is activated. Within 10 minutes, you can counterattack any player in the opponent's group, and the ID color will not change." Sure enough, a long string of system information popped up.
"Hmph, let's see where you are going this time." A familiar male voice came from behind.
Bai Xiaoyu clutched his right shoulder and turned around. It was one of the pair of players he met yesterday when he was playing flower essence. The male swordsman who turned around looked at him viciously with an ordinary long sword, and blood was flowing from the tip of the long sword. Although the name was hidden before, for the party who took the initiative to PK, the gray ID still appeared above the head: Battle Overlord.
"..." Bai Xiaoyu just looked at him coldly, for such a grumpy person, whatever he said would be called sophistry.
"Hmph, I won't let you go today, and hand over your pet if you are sensible." The Overlord of the Battle looked like a robber at this moment. He broke up with his girlfriend yesterday, so he was the only one online today. The more he thought about it, the more angry he decided to go around to see if he could block the boy from yesterday and force him to hand over his pet to please his girlfriend.
Bai Xiaoyu remained silent, not even bothering to make up for the blood that fell, at worst, he would die and return to the city.
"KAO, do you think I will let you wait until the battle time is over before running away again? I have a lot of ways to keep you in a fighting state, and I will give you a sword when your blood is full."
Although the swordsman profession does not have healing skills, it can indeed keep Bai Xiaoyu in a fighting state without hurting his blood, because they have a unique skill-provocation. It was originally used to forcibly attract the hatred value of monsters with a certain chance and a certain period of time when forming a team, and protect the mage behind him.
Provocation can also be used for PK. However, players are not a rigid set of data, there is no hatred value, and anyone who likes to attack can be attacked. Therefore, this skill is generally not very useful in PK, but it can keep the provoked person in a fighting state, and of course the corresponding attacker will always maintain the gray name active PK state.
Bai Xiaoyu's blood volume was recovering little by little, and he was not in a hurry to fight the Overlord. He would challenge him from time to time, and when he was full of blood, he would stab hard with his sword.
There was a difference of more than 30 levels between the two, and with normal equipment, they could kill Bai Xiaoyu with a single blow. But the battle against the Overlord won't be so cheap. After Bai Xiaoyu found him outside the south gate, he replaced it with blank equipment without any attribute bonuses, and his weapon was replaced with a trash long sword with the lowest attack power.
Bai Xiaoyu thought about trying to use running, but his poor agility value of 5 points, absolutely can't find anyone in the game lower than him. Besides, judging from the sneak attack just now, this swordsman is more focused on agility, so he jumped up with a sword so quickly, so that he had no time to crush the scroll back to the city.
"Meow!!" The kitten arched its back and roared at the Overlord of the Battle. It's a pity that it is too small, and the deterrent effect is infinitely close to zero.
Time passed by, Bai Xiaoyu didn't know how many swords he had been stabbed with, but only knew that the wound was good or bad, and the blood was fresh again and again, leaving holes on the robe to prove that he had been attacked.
That near-death pain really hurts. And without the skill red medicine, the process of recovering blood volume by time is also extremely difficult, because when the blood volume is less than a certain value, the player will have varying degrees of weakness and dizziness. Several times, Bai Xiaoyu almost couldn't help moaning or falling down, but with a stubbornness, he still kept his body upright, biting his lower lip tightly.
There was an itchy feeling on his neck, and Bai Xiaoyu knew that the kitten was rubbing its head against him. There was a warm feeling in my heart, no matter what the situation, his kitten would never abandon him. Although it was just a set of data, it brought him a lot of warmth and happiness, so even if it wasn't bound by the system, Bai Xiaoyu would never give it to anyone.
Looking at the friend column, Tongban's profile picture is gray, obviously still in class; Huoshaodidi Online, a level 75 second-rank mage, is probably still setting up a stall.
Bai Xiaoyu didn't want to trouble them at first, he thought it would be a big deal if he died, and he didn't have anything good on him, so it wouldn't be a pity to explode. But if he continues to be tortured physically and mentally like this, there is no guarantee that there will be psychological shadows in the future. He still wants to play this game well! Just when he was about to try to set fire to the earth...
"Okay, you are ruthless!"
The Overlord of the Battle obviously didn't have such good patience. He originally wanted to make this newcomer suffer a bit, and when he couldn't stand begging for mercy, he asked him to hand over his pet honestly, so as to relieve his anger and get the pet for free.
What I didn't expect was that this newcomer had such a stubborn temper, not only did he stay silent, he didn't even shake his body. It made me more and more depressed, and I got angry instead of venting. If it wasn't for the fact that the player's death wouldn't explode the pet, he would have already gambled on the tiny probability.
"I'll see you kill once in the future!" After saying that, before Bai Xiaoyu's blood recharged this time, he swung his sword and chopped down.
Now there is no need for a secret person, and it is better to send it back to the city for free. Bai Xiaoyu closed her eyes, waiting for relief.
