Online Game: The King of the New World - Chapter 10

Chapter 10 Confident? !
‘”Why are you only reviving now? I’ve been waiting for you for 10 minutes. Have you lost your way? I sent you a message, but there’s no response. Did you hear the system announcement just now? That Sky Spear is so powerful, it’s already Level 10.” As soon as Qing Wu saw Xu You revive, she ran over with a complained expression.

‘”I met a friend just now. I’ve already called him over. He’s a warrior with full initial endurance. He was born to be a tank. With him, it would be much easier for us to kill little spiders. Did you send me a message just now? Maybe I didn’t pay attention. That announcement must have been heard. Who doesn’t know? You should know how much we’re behind others now, right?” Xu You finished his sentence in one breath.

“En, we’re only at level 3, we’re a lot behind. When did your friend come? Eh? You met a friend in your soul state? Then you …”

“We met in the cemetery!” Xu You said embarrassedly.

“…”

“Hey! Brother, I’m coming!” At this time, the unyielding strong warrior finally arrived. In fact, he was not far from Xu You and the others, hitting the little spider.

“Come, let me introduce you. This is Qingwu, my friend, Qingwu. This is the brave warrior I told you about, Buqu!” Xu You introduced the two of them to each other.

“Hello, are you really at full endurance? How amazing!” Qingwu was very happy. With this warrior, she would no longer have to fly kites to fight monsters.

“Hello, Little Sister Qingwu! Yes, I only have 10 points of endurance at level 1, but my strength is very low. It’s only 5. Now it’s only 11, so I can’t defeat this little spider by myself.”

“What do you call my little sister? Are you very old?” Qingwu pouted in dissatisfaction.

“Buqu, you won’t persevere in hunting the little spider, will you?” At this time, Xu You also asked the questions in his heart.

“No, I only tried seven or eight times, but they’re all dead. There’s nothing I can do. I’ve wasted too much time on my way to the Misty Forest. There’s no one left to do this quest now. I can only wait for the next batch of players to arrive.” Replied the Buqu warrior.

When Xu You heard this, he thought of a possibility, “Brother Unyielding, how did you get through that section of road where the cubs of wild wolves and lions mixed together? Did you die all the time?”

“Yeah, how did you know that? It’s too difficult to pass there. I’ve only thought of one way, and that is to die!” The orc warriors looked very proud.

Xu You and Qingwu were speechless. Could this soldier be their tank?

An unyielding warrior, an orc warrior. He was a Level 4 warrior. He already had 130 HP. Xu You knew that he would pay attention to this warrior in the future, but now, Xu You felt that this might be the beginning of a tragedy.

‘”Alright, let’s begin leveling up. Our mission is to kill the Misty Spider. Buqu, be honest. Qingwu will lead the monster first. After shooting an arrow, Buqu will immediately receive it. Qingwu will stop shooting and wait for Buqu to slash twice to pull out the hatred before attacking!” Xu You knew that he was the only one in charge of this team, and fighting monsters was too troublesome when he didn’t have any hatred skills in the early stages.

After assigning the task, the three of them started to move.

-80,-67,-66, miss,-79

This time, it was Xu You who missed, but Qingwu’s second arrow accurately hit, killing the little spider. The little spider only lost 50 health when it hit the orc warrior. Even if Qingwu’s second arrow missed, he could still carry the little spider’s attack again.

‘Ding! You killed the Misty Spider and gained 2 experience points (1 of which is the team reward).’

The speed at which the three of them killed monsters was completely different from the two of them. Moreover, with Buqu’s strong warrior, a thick-blooded warrior who could withstand two attacks, beating a small spider was no longer a problem.

“Alright, let’s fight like this. It’s 1:42 in the morning. Let’s try to get out of Novice Village before dawn!”

…

-142,-111,-147

“Ding, you killed the Misty Scorpion …”

“Ding! Congratulations, you’ve reached level 6 …”

Truth be told, the unyielding warriors’ game skills were still acceptable. With this powerful MT, Xu You and the others were able to complete the Misty Forest mission smoothly. An hour later, Xu You and the rest had all risen to LV6. The unyielding warriors of the orc warriors were even closer to LV7.

However, what Xu You and the others hadn’t expected was that from the beginning of the “Supply Spider Silk” mission, the Village Chief had given them a mission called “Supply XX”. Now, they had already done nearly 20 similar missions in a row.

Fortunately, the monsters on these missions were only at level 7, Because of this, Xu You and the others didn’t need to fight too high-level monsters to pull up their ranks. Right now, even if they were to fight a Level 7 monster, it wouldn’t be a problem. Although their HP was still not high and they couldn’t withstand a few blows from the monster, their offensive power was greatly enhanced. After all, every time they leveled up, their offensive attributes would increase by 2 points. Therefore, they could only kill one monster twice, let alone three people.

“Sure enough, the area where the lion and wolf mix is a barrier. Those who can cross this barrier can do the quest here. They will be able to level up much faster!” Xu You couldn’t help but sigh when he remembered what had happened to the Misty Forest.

At that time his guess was correct, Misty Forest’s mission isn’t easy, The first mission here, Supply Spider Silk, was already a Level 6 monster. The difficulty could be imagined. Normally, players who completed the Cass NPC mission would be around Level 3. It was unrealistic to come to the Misty Forest. The obstacle on the way to the Misty Forest was also a warning to players not to go to the Misty Forest unless they had the strength to pass through that area.

On the other hand, Xu You and Qing Wu had forcefully rushed over because of their high attributes and proper combination of professions. If it weren’t for the unyielding warriors joining them in time, they really wouldn’t know how to carry on with their mission.

Xu You shook his head and said, “I didn’t expect this [New World] to tell all the players at the beginning that without teammates and companions, it’s impossible to play alone. What a profound lesson …” He discovered that it was very difficult for Level 3 and 4 players to come to the Fog Forest if they didn’t form a team. If they didn’t form a team here, they wouldn’t be able to complete missions unless you were at least Level 5.

“Uncle Buqu, do you want to be a defensive warrior in the future?” Fighting monsters was easy. The three of them could also chat while fighting. It was now over 3 a.m. After spending more than an hour together, the three of them were much more familiar with each other.

“That’s right, little sister Qingwu, don’t you think it’s cool to be a tank standing at the front and protecting your teammates?” Buqu’s warriors casually chopped down a level 7 monster, as if they didn’t dislike the term “uncle”.

“Uncle, you’re not even 30 yet, right? Don’t call me little sister!” Qingwu was still dissatisfied with the orc warriors calling her little sister, but the orc warriors had no intention of changing their tongue.

“You’re only 18 years old. What’s your little sister’s name if you don’t call her?”

“Just call me Qingwu, and you call me Little Sister. Why not call him Little Brother Yue Wuyou instead? He’s not much older than me.” Qingwu retorted.

“… Haha, you can’t call this. Otherwise, your brother Wuyou will chop me to death.” Buqu’s warrior glanced at Xu You’s twitching face and laughed loudly as he replied.

“What big brother Wuyou, he’s a bad guy, hmph!” Looks like Qingwu hasn’t forgotten how Xu You bullied her back then.

“Oh!” The orc warrior had an expression of “I understand”.

“…” Xu You didn’t say anything. For the past hour, he had been too lazy to pay attention to the brainless conversation between the two of them. The reason for that was because the orc warrior called Qing Wu Little Sister, and Qing Wu wanted to argue with the orc warrior.

They were now located in the southeast of the Fog Forest, some distance away from the small camp at the entrance of the forest. They had come here to do a resupply mission to kill the Fog Scorpions.

“Deal with it!” The mission required 20 Misty Scorpions to be killed. For Xu You and the others, it didn’t take long before they returned on the same path.

The Misty Forest was naturally dominated by tall trees. However, the road that Xu You and the others were walking on was now surrounded by dense bushes that were more than two meters tall. There weren’t many trees on either side of the road, but the night was hazy and the surroundings looked very dark.

At this moment, Xu You, who was looking around, suddenly discovered a strange place. Strange, Actually, he felt that there were a few taller grass beside the road that didn’t seem to grow very harmoniously, It was as if someone had stepped on him and helped him up. If an ordinary person passed by, it would be difficult for him to pay attention to such a small matter. However, Xu You was not an ordinary person. He had an incredible feeling, as if there was a voice in his mind telling him that there was a secret behind these grass. He was very familiar with this feeling.

Actually, this was Xu You’s ability. He was very sensitive to hidden quests and hidden plots. In a certain 3D game, he was once respected as the quest king by some players who were familiar with him. This showed Xu You’s strength in this area.

However, after entering the “New World”, he had always been afraid that he would lose his previous ability because of the game’s different aspects. Until now, that familiar feeling seemed to have returned. As for the triggering of the Green Hand Hammer Quest a while ago, it was all due to luck. At that time, he had no feeling at all.

“Wait!” Xu You called out to Qingwu and the orc warriors who were walking in front.

“What’s the matter?” Qingwu stopped in his tracks and turned around with some confusion, only to see Xu You plucking away the bushes on his left and walking in!

“Sure enough, there’s a secret here!” After Xu You walked into the bushes, he happily discovered that there was a winding path in front of him.

“Wow! There’s actually a path here. Brother Wuyou, how did you discover it!” Qing Wu had a delighted expression on her face, not even noticing that she had called out “Brother Wuyou”.

“Brother Wuyou, you are so powerful. To actually discover such a secret place, will we encounter a treasure?” The orc warrior was also excited. He was also a veteran player who had been immersed in the game for many years. When he encountered this situation, he knew what they had encountered.

“Don’t be happy so early. I don’t know what you’ve discovered yet!” Xu You suppressed his excitement. Just as he said, he still didn’t know what to discover. Even if there were hidden storyline missions or monsters, it would be useless if they weren’t at their level and their abilities could handle them.

This path that was deliberately concealed by others extended for several dozen meters. The three of them walked very slowly and carefully, fearing that some powerful monster would suddenly come out from the bushes on both sides. Unexpectedly, they didn’t see any living creatures until the end.

The end of the path was an open space, It’s not big, Just one basketball court or so, Apart from the bushes on this side of the path, The other three sides were densely packed with trees. There were also some tree stumps, or stumps, in the open space, which made the open space look less spacious. It seemed that this place was originally part of the forest, but some trees had just been cut down. At a glance, there weren’t any monsters on this open space, which made Xu You feel a little disappointed. Could this be just an ordinary open space?

“Let’s take a look around. Be careful.” Xu You said to Qing Wu and the unyielding warrior.

The open space was not big. The three of them quickly walked through the open space, but they were disappointed to discover that there was nothing there.

“There seems to be nothing here. It’s just an ordinary open space.” The orc warrior scratched his head and sat down on a tree stump, his face full of disappointment.

“Yeah, how could this be? I thought I would encounter a hidden monster.” Qingwu was also disappointed.

“Am I wrong?”

Xu You was also asking himself, In previous games, He wouldn’t doubt himself, But ever since we entered the “new world”, His lack of confidence had led to misjudgments in various aspects, such as battles. His emotions had also become restless and even a little neurotic. Now that he encountered a familiar scene, he should be extremely confident, like a fish in water. But now, he was helpless. In the final analysis, it was because of the creativity and unknownness of the “New World”.

Take the battle as an example. In the New World, players fought monsters in the same way as they did in reality. They fought monsters with weapons, and they had to wave their weapons to deal damage to the monsters.

Or talk to an NPC, It was like talking to a real person. It wasn’t just a click of a mouse. If he didn’t speak well, the NPC might not care about you. All of this was something the players had never experienced before. Xu You was the same. Because of this, he couldn’t judge whether the hidden plot was triggered or not. He lost the most important thing he couldn’t lose-self-confidence.
