The next day, Bai Xiaoyu followed the direction pointed by I am a poor man and found the location of the zombie cave.
Zombies are not as scary as rotting corpses, at least they are dressed in full Qing Dynasty costumes, with round pointed hats on their heads, and the hanging talisman papers almost cover half of their blue faces.
But they move faster than the carrion, raising their hands and hopping around in all the big and small paths in the cave. There is no absolutely safe area for attracting monsters, so the priest's operation and positioning are very particular about fighting zombies. Of course, psychological quality is also required. It is very likely that a zombie will jump on you just by turning a corner.
After being poked a few times by the zombies at close range, Bai Xiaoyu finally remembered that there was a deceleration technique in his skill bar, which was an auxiliary skill extended after the proficiency of the deceleration technique reached a certain level. Originally, the rotting corpse moved slower than Bai Xiaoyu, so he didn't care too much about having such an extra skill. Now that I think about it, every skill is necessary for his existence.
The moving speed of the zombies after the deceleration was obviously comparable to that of Bai Xiaoyu. If the distance is properly controlled, as long as it does not attract other zombies to fight monsters, there is no problem.
Maybe it was because the zombie cave was obviously not as smelly as the rotting corpse cave and so polluted the vision. In just one morning, three teams of players passed by Bai Xiaoyu's side. Maybe they want to go to the boss to try their luck, or the advanced zombies drop a rare decoration or something. They didn't pay much attention to Bai Xiaoyu who was leveling here alone, because they had a high-level priest in their team.
In the afternoon, Bai Xiaoyu met a team of players without a priest. A slightly higher-level male archer hid two female mages behind him. I don't know if the female mages were arguing to test their courage, or they really came to level up. For the undead type, in addition to the bonuses for holy attribute skills, the fire type attacks also have a considerable bonus.
The three of them are long-range attacks. It’s okay to encounter zombies in the distance. They can be knocked down before they jump close.
The three of them noticed that Bai Xiaoyu was practicing alone, and murmured for a while.
"They are level 40, can priests form a team? I won't form a team to lead you." The archer obviously has more than two rounds.
"...Level 30." Bai Xiaoyu was a little bit resistant to teaming up with strangers, but since everyone else revealed their level, he shouldn't hide it.
"It happens to be divided equally, we can still go to the next floor, group?"
"Okay." The archer's attitude is not bad, and the team split mode has a bonus effect on experience.
"Uh..." the archer hesitated.
"?"
"Can you put away your pick-up pet? We will share the loot equally afterward." The archers said their request, because it was observed just now that this kitten can pick up props, which is why they found that the single The reason why the pastor didn't come up immediately to ask for a team.
"... Forget it." Except for that offline maintenance, Bai Xiaoyu has never left the kitten, and it is absolutely impossible for him to take the kitten back to the unknown pet space.
"Why not, how about changing the pick-up method to the captain's pick-up? Afterwards, we will not lose you." One of the female mages suggested.
The team defaults to common pick-up. The captain can modify the pick-up method, but a prompt box will pop up in front of the team members, and the change can only be successful after unanimous agreement. After adding a new team member, no matter what the original pickup method is, they will return to the common pickup again. If you need to modify it, you must ask for approval again.
Picking up by the captain is a commonly used method of splitting, of course, the premise is that the captain is trustworthy.
"No, I'll practice solo, thank you for your invitation." Picking up by the captain means that the kitten can't pick up any props from the beginning to the end, so what's the point of killing monsters like this, it's better to go back to the city to do errands.
"Could it be that you want to take it all yourself? It's too selfish. Don't think that you can do whatever you want with the support of the priest alliance on the forum." The other female mage obviously had a worse temper than the first two.
"No, I'll split what the kittens pick up."
"Who believes you!"
"..."
The atmosphere was tense for a moment. In fact, it wasn't that Bai Xiaoyu didn't believe that they would share equally, but he was too lazy to explain to everyone how the kitten upgraded and his intention to fight monsters. Since the other party didn't believe that he would share equally, there was nothing to say.
"Hey, please don't make noise. How about changing the pickup method to take turns?" The archer was making peace.
Taking turns to pick up is actually a common pick-up method when the team members are unfamiliar with each other and do not trust each other, but because of the lack of trust, there is no politeness among the members. There is a default rule in picking up in turn, that is, there will be no equal share afterwards. When it is his turn to pick up, he will drop good things. It is good for him to pick up RP. It is useless for other members to be jealous. Who told them not to trust each other in advance.
"Okay, let's take turns to pick up, what you pick up is nothing, and it won't be divided equally, okay?" The first female mage asked Bai Xiaoyu's opinion, and pushed the other one. Having a priest is different after all. Not only can it add various beneficial states, but it can also contribute to dealing with undead.
Mages with a bad temper would not say anything if they were pushed by their friends. Anyway, they were twice as likely to pick up good things as Bai Xiaoyu.
Bai Xiaoyu actually didn't want to form a team with them after being made such a fuss just now.
But if they still don't agree, it might make them think that they just wanted to take the spoils all to themselves. Besides, the attitude of the archer and the previous female mage has always been considered friendly, two to one, so I agree. After all, forming a team to fight monsters is fast and has a lot of experience. I also want to practice leveling quickly, and at the same time, I also consider that the kitten has something to pick up.
"it is good."
"Hmph." The female mage snorted softly after reading the names of the new team members. They are also recruiting money, two to one, to see who can pick it up better, and this pastor will be mad at him.
It's a pity that the reality is cruel, and it was the mage who died of anger.
If it was his luck that it was Bai Xiaoyu's turn to pick it up when the first piece of equipment exploded, then it was his turn to pick up the three pieces that exploded within just one hour, while the other two could only pick up ordinary garbage items. what does that mean? It means that either the master of the system is partial to him, or he has some hidden skills such as an increase in equipment drop rate. Anyway, they will not admit that their RP is too low.
In fact, what they didn't know was that Bai Xiaoyu didn't even explode a piece of junk equipment when he played alone all morning. In the rotting corpse cave where I squatted for half a month before, except for a rotting bandage headgear with a special bonus, only the other 5 or 6 pieces are whiteboard junk equipment that can be bought in the system store.
Therefore, the drop rate of the most resentful attribute equipment in Wonderland is still very low, unless you fight a BOSS. From this point of view, the master of the system didn't take special care of Bai Xiaoyu. As for the current situation... maybe Bai Xiaoyu's team is particularly prosperous, attracting money, and he is not prosperous, but when he formed a team, he was very prosperous.
"Stop fighting, rest." The grumpy female mage was upset when she saw the first piece of equipment, and finally she couldn't take it anymore when the third piece of equipment broke out.
The zombie spawn in the zombie cave has certain rules, so if you observe carefully, you can find that there are one or two blind spots that are slightly safer for spawning monsters, and a group of four people sit down on the spot.
With three pieces of equipment, one attribute and two white boards, Bai Xiaoyu took a rough look at the kitten's interspatial bag, and he got a good result. He was not familiar with the other three, so he sat down two or three meters apart.
The atmosphere was weird again. Seeing one person picking up so many equipment, even if only one piece had attributes (there was a faint halo on the outside compared to the whiteboard equipment), the three of them were more or less depressed, especially It was the grumpy mage. But they can't produce anything, and it's fair to take turns to pick it up to a certain extent. Everyone picks up according to their own luck, unless...
"Hey, priest, take out the things you picked up, and we will start to divide the items equally." Unless this new priest doesn't know the unspoken rules of taking turns to pick up, after all, this is the default rule among players.
"Xiaoxue, take turns..." Another mage wanted to say that taking turns should not be divided equally, besides, he himself said just now that there would be no equal share afterwards, but was stopped by the mage named Xiaoxue, and he swallowed the second half of the sentence.
"...why?" Game forums are indispensable for beginners' guidance, beginners' quick start, and other top posts that allow newcomers to easily check various basic game settings and rules. Naturally, Bai Xiaoyu will not miss it when browsing, so he knows the meaning of several team assignment modes where.
"Why, why, you, a low-level priest, have been gaining more experience by leapfrogging, sorry."
Although this is indeed true, without the three of them, Bai Xiaoyu would never dare to come to this second floor to fight against level 45 intermediate zombies. Leapfrogging monsters is indeed a fast way to level up, but it is difficult to kill monsters alone if you go beyond level 10 without forming a team, or you will lose a level in vain.
But this fact does not stop the default rule of taking turns among the players. If they want to blame, they can only blame a low-level priest in their own group.
The faces of the other mage and the male archer were already a little unhappy, fearing that the priest in front of them would take screenshots or record them. In any case, it was Xiaoxue's fault on their side. If it was posted on the forum, the three of them would definitely be punished by the Cleric Alliance in the future.
Fortunately for other professional leagues on the forum, trivial bullying incidents happen every day. However, priests are recognized as auxiliary professions, and the proportion of this profession is small due to the difficulty of training. However, they are always indispensable in teaming up to fight monsters and do tasks. Therefore, a sturdy priest alliance was spontaneously organized on the forum.
It is said that the top leaders of the alliance are some well-known well-connected and nosy senior female priests in the game. Not to mention protecting the shortcomings, but especially protecting the shortcomings of male priests, because men generally like combat-type occupations and rarely choose auxiliary occupations, so dads are the key protection targets. (In fact, they feel that the weak image of male priests can stimulate their motherhood, and they are also good targets for YY==)
"..." What Bai Xiaoyu dislikes the most are unreasonable people, because he is not good at arguing with people. He knew that the cause of this situation was most likely the last piece of equipment he picked up—the attribute mage coat with a light blue halo.
He dug out the kitten's space bag and checked the attributes of this mage's coat: defense +50, intelligence +5, fire spell casting time reduced by 5%, absorbing 10% of the undead monster's attack and converting it into his own MP, two Slot, level limit: 50, occupation limit: exclusive to the mage department.
It's indeed a good piece of equipment for a mage after the second rank, so that's why the mage made things so difficult.
"The most valuable is this." Taking out the mage coat and throwing it in front of the three of them, Bai Xiaoyu stood up, withdrew from the team, and proceeded to the cave on the upper floor. Maybe he should follow his own wishes and not join this group from the very beginning, or maybe he is not suitable for forming a team at all.
"You... Do you think we are beggars?!" Xiaoxue expressed anger at Bai Xiaoyu's behavior of throwing the equipment in front of her.
In fact, Bai Xiaoyu didn't mean anything else, just thought that since you are so sneering at me, don't you just want this dress, then I will give it to you, and there is no need to share anything. After leaving the group, everyone will take care of everyone's leveling. As for throwing... Originally, Bai Xiaoyu sat a little distance away from them. He didn't have the kindness to give the equipment with both hands when he was treated so unfairly.
"..." Stopping, turning around, Bai Xiaoyu looked at this female mage named Xiaoxue, meaning that I have already equipped you, what else do you want to do.
It's a pity that Xiaoxue's eyes changed. She thought Bai Xiaoyu was telling her with his eyes, 'Aren't you a beggar? ! '
Standing up "Teng", Xiaoxue picked up the staff and pointed it at Bai Xiaoyu. She couldn't swallow this breath. This pastor actually insulted her like this.
Seeing that the situation was wrong, the other two quickly stood up to stop Xiaoxue from attacking. Priests whose PK level is much lower than theirs are the most despised by others. The highest-level priest in the alliance was laundered.
