Chapter 670: First time for newbies

"Captain, can we do this?" Zheng Xinyun asked.

After hearing Zhao Xu's proposal, Zheng Xinyun directly agreed without even considering the risks involved.

When Zhao Xu first conveyed the message of "the destruction of the earth" to her through "divine power", Zheng Xinyun grew to a mature stage in that short month because she realized that the future of her parents and relatives was weighing on her. on the shoulders.

After losing her memory at this moment, Zheng Xinyun has regained her original energetic nature of an eighteen-year-old girl. She was extremely excited when she heard that she could leave the room that was now like a prison and go out for a walk.

At this time, the two of them have arrived at the edge of the camp. This is a specially developed isolation zone. Generally, unarmed civilians will not come here, and only adventurers will visit.

"It's okay, I have everything." Zhao Xu comforted.

This time, he was essentially taking Zheng Xinyun to make up for the most basic adventure knowledge. He might be interrupted at any time and be summoned to the abyss by Antinoya.

So at the first stop, after thinking about it, he decided to have an adventure at the edge of the camp, which was only a hundred kilometers away from Yanan.

Although the sky was completely suppressed by a gloomy black cloud, the adventurers in the camp still came to the edge of the warning zone in an endless stream.

Even because of the high proportion of adventurers and the continuous flow of people returning from adventures on the way, this warning area has become a business district for adventurers.

Due to the loss of the Resurrection Stone, although taking risks is an extremely profitable activity, many adventurers are still cautious and choose to recruit as many people as possible to go on adventures together.

Many adventure teams in the warning area even shouted for the target candidates they needed.

"Captain, why are so many teams carrying big and small bags? Are we going to come back after wandering around for a while? Or are we going to go with these adventuring teams?"

Zheng Xinyun immediately noticed the difference between them and other teams.

Although Zhao Xu was wearing a lot of adventurous clothes at this time, including sacrificial robes, robes and cloaks inside and outside, there was only a simple backpack on his back, which could not hold anything at all.

And she only wore a piece of "Tianxiang Armor" given by Zhao Xu.

The armor itself is shining with golden light. It is an extremely lightweight +3 chain armor. When paired with its own chain armor defense, it can provide a full 8th level armor defense.

The key is that this piece of "Tianxiang Armor" is light armor, weighing only more than ten kilograms, not even as heavy as some elementary school students' schoolbags.

At the same time, it can also activate the "Flying Technique" once a day, which is worthy of its market value of 22,400 gold coins.

"They were prepared for heavy rain that might fall from the sky, so they brought simple tents and blankets and sleeping bags." Zhao Xu explained, "But I have magic, so we can do without."

At this moment, a poet from a team of more than ten people came over and asked.

"Friends, do you mind going on an adventure outside with us?"

"We plan to hunt certain animals and wild beasts before this heavy rain falls, as a food reserve for the next heavy rain."

The poet man with blond hair and white teeth glanced back and forth at Yoona's golden armor, realizing that it was definitely a magic item.

While showing an envious look, he also said hurriedly, "Our harvest of animal food will be gathered together, and then 80% will be divided equally among people, and 20% will be allocated to those who have outstanding performance in the operation."

"Look, the two of you didn't bring tents or anything like that. Instead, we adventurers carried tents in batches with heavy loads. There's room for a few sleeping bags, which is just right for you."

As he spoke, he glanced at other adventure teams in the warning area, "Other teams may have better conditions than us, but their tents may not be big enough, and many teams are all-male, so don't worry."

"If you join us, your girlfriend can hang out with our female team members."

After hearing the poet's talkative introduction, Zhao Xu also understood.

Compared to the threats he faced from "foreign gods" an hour ago.

The adventure the poet mentioned at this time was just "hunting" together.

Suddenly it was filled with the simplest atmosphere of life.

No one knows when the heavy rain will come, but once it falls, it will definitely paralyze the operation of the camp.

Although food reserves have been allocated in advance, no one can predict how long the heavy rain will last.

This is also the reason why these adventurers still take risks and hunt even though they know that the current situation is urgent and it is not conducive to go out. They all need to prepare for "winter" in advance.

The other party's adventure team was put together for this reason.

And they were actively invited, naturally because of the magic armor Zheng Xinyun was wearing at the moment.

Zhao Xu couldn't help but want to pat his head.

Essentially, he wanted to train Zheng Xinyun's adventurous ability, so even though he had hundreds of magic items in stock, he still only gave Yuner one piece of "Tianxiang Armor".

Zhao Xu wants to train the other party.

If you can't experience the sense of life and death by simply practicing Wushuang, then there is no point in exercising.

But he didn't expect that a piece of magic armor that was inconspicuous in his eyes would still make Yoona the "big brother" in the warning area at this time, making other teams take the initiative to recruit.

Zheng Xinyun also turned his head, waiting for Zhao Xu's reply with great interest.

"Okay." Zhao Xu agreed after thinking for a while.

Simply catching wild beasts might be more suitable for Yoona at this time.

He also happened to introduce the basics of survival in the wild to the other party.

The poet couldn't help but be overjoyed when he saw Zhao Xu accepting the proposal without even bargaining, and quickly introduced the two of them to the leader of the team at that time - a level 3 warrior, Sledgehammer Cook.

After introducing each other and explaining the team's adventure goals, and receiving an unobjectionable answer, the team hurriedly set off to try to get back before the rainstorm.

"You two are out taking risks, so you don't care about the elderly and children at home?" The wanderer walking in the front glanced at Zhao Xu and asked.

He was also considered a well-known person in the camp. He knew many adventurers, but he had no impression of the two of them, so he took the opportunity to ask questions and gossip.

"Come on, didn't you see that Xiao Yun is as childish as a high school student? The two of them are just young lovers. Where did they come from?" the ranger sister on the side retorted.

She initially suffered from postpartum depression and was led into the Arthur game by her husband, who would have thought it would be a blessing in disguise.

The soldier leading the team was also her husband. At this time, the only couple in the team were both over thirty years old.

Zhao Xu and Zheng Xinyun really became famous in this camp because of the miracles performed by the goddess, so they simply adopted the "code names" - "Xiao Xia" and "Xiao Yun".

"Sister Lan, I've said it twice, we are not a couple, we just go on adventures together." Zheng Xinyun explained.

"Hehe, I understand, I understand." Sister Lin, the ranger, laughed.

"But Yoona, which Arthur force or player union did you belong to before? Our old Tang persisted until time travel, and the magic items on his body are not as expensive as yours. Or does it have something to do with the family?"

Those who dare to venture outside the camp at this time and lick blood with their swords are at least thoughtful people who have a three-pointed three in their hands.

Just from this step, everyone could see that Xiaoyun had no adventure experience at all.

Naturally, this piece of magic armor, which looked like it cost several thousand, couldn't have been obtained by herself.

There was a sense of probing in the conversation.

"My equipment was given to me by the captain." Zheng Xinyun said frankly.

"oh?"

Suddenly, everyone turned their attention to Zhao Xu, realizing that this man who had been silent just now was the real hidden dragon and crouching tiger.

As early as the beginning, Zhao Xu used the "Concealed Magical Aura" spell to make his dozens of exposed magic items extremely simple, and even put away all the ioun stones above his head.

Even a "detection magic" can't reveal any clues.

"It looks like you are taking a girl on an adventure. My friend, you must be quite capable." The wanderer in front praised directly.

"Thank you." Zhao Xu didn't say much.

In fact, he planned to create some "crisis" and conduct a field surprise teaching for Zheng Xinyun.

At this time, Cook, the leader of the team, said, "Since we are all here, we are destined to meet each other. Why don't we all talk about the characteristics of the monsters we may encounter in the wild, and then complement each other. It's not in vain for us to gather as a team. .”

After hearing the suggestion from team leader Cook, everyone immediately responded happily.

In fact, one of the more obvious ways to judge whether you have entered a circle is to see whether there is "information exchange" and whether you can know some gossip in the circle.

In the circle, everyone has their own "information advantage" based on their own class and professional work, and everyone also needs other people's "information".

Naturally, this "information" is the ticket and bargaining chip in the circle.

If you just ask for it blindly, you will naturally not be taken along by others during gatherings.

At this moment, the biggest difference between players and civilians is that they form a closed "circle" themselves.

Civilians have no valuable information to provide to players, but players can complement each other.

As the highest level 3 player in the team, Warrior Cook can provide the most information possible.

Naturally, he suffered the most, so everyone responded immediately after his suggestion.

Even if they didn't gain anything from this trip, knowing some information about the monsters would still be a gain.

Cook, who looked honest and honest, said at this time, "How about the two new companions talk first, and then I will take the back seat."

When Zhao Xu heard this, he couldn't help but raise his brows slightly.

When everyone speaks, they will naturally not repeat what their predecessors have said.

So he would definitely have the upper hand by saying it first, or even using some old-fashioned information to fool them. As the team leader, although Cook was unsmiling, he took care of the two of them to some extent.

And Cook designated the two of them as first and second, so naturally he could only rank himself last to balance everyone.

Sister Kelan, the ranger, immediately sensed her husband's intentions. She just gouged him out and secretly said, "I want you to be a good person."

"In that case, I'll finish it with Xiaoyun."

Zhao Xu understood that this was also an opportunity for Yoona to have on-the-spot teaching.

What he revealed to these players, they will naturally share with others, and these strategies will naturally spread.

Just when everyone thought he was thinking about something, Zhao Xu had already used knowledge (geography) skills to learn about the distribution of nearby monsters.

"Dire rats, these creatures are much larger than ordinary rats. They are small, agile, and numerous in number. However, players can trample them to death if they can't help it. Just avoid them from breaking through the line and facing the mage directly. Also, be careful of diseases transmitted by bites. "

Everyone nodded when they heard Zhao Xu's introduction.

Due to the large number of dire rats, it can be said that they have been on many players' tables in the past few weeks, and they are considered a rare meat supplement.

The other party's introduction was just fine.

However, Zhao Xu is more than just that.

"As for goblins and kobolds, although there are not many in this wilderness, there are still some. They are often in groups and are good at long-range attacks. They are not a threat in single combat, but with a round of javelin and crossbow, even our team can't No need."

"It's best to conduct reconnaissance in advance. You can cut the watermelons one by one with a sleep spell, just in case they are spread out and it's not conducive to cleaning. But as long as they can stay close to you, it won't be a big problem."

"But be aware that they have good intelligence. Traps in the wild are often laid by these creatures, so you can use weapons to explore the way and jump in the air when necessary."

At this time, Zhao Xu only said a few words without any words of boasting, but everyone already understood.

The person standing in front of them at this moment is probably an experienced "team commander"!

Shouldn't such a strong person be with the entire adventure team? How could they be met by people like them

For a moment, everyone looked at Zhao Xu with anticipation.

Even Cook couldn't help but ask, "How should we deal with it if we encounter it? I mean, what tactics are there to use?"

Zhao Xu couldn't help but frown. He really hadn't encountered him a few times.

Because these levels are too low, he has never taken them seriously since he started taking risks.

Fortunately, he immediately recalled the adventure experience in his previous life and explained immediately.

"Most of them are broken, there is no need to be violent, and it is not difficult to deal with them. Either cut in at high speed, ensure that one charges every second, threaten the other at the same time, and quickly resolve the battle. Or approach with full defensive foot combat and bully the opponent into low hits."

"As for the orcs, they have better equipment. It is difficult for a small team to resist a collective charge. Fortunately, they are less vigilant, and because they are afraid of light, they rarely move in large groups during the day. Therefore, they keep a distance and use long-range attacks, or use spears to counterattack. , the results are ideal.”

"At the same time, orcs like to get together, and color spray and sleep spells have miraculous effects."

"However, these three types are all unique talents, easy to evolve, and difficult to identify when hidden in the team. Kobold Warlock, Goblin Rogue and Orc Barbarian are the three killers of players at low levels. A person who accidentally encounters a Kobold Warlock The storm of magic missiles can kill even level 5 warriors."

As he spoke, Zhao Xu looked at Zheng Xinyun beside him.

"These types of monsters themselves have a hobby of catching prisoners, so if they are really caught, suicide is a better way."
