Chapter 10: The Demonized Wild Boar King
After closing the forum, Zhang Shan asked Wind-Blowing Wind Chimes, “In the novice village, we can’t get rid of the red name?”
“I don’t know either. There are many differences between the New World and other games. No relevant information was posted on the official website, so we have to wait for the players to encounter problems then only we will know.
“However, if what the forum said was true, then it was possible. After all, not a bit of sin value had been removed in an hour. It’s impossible to have been removed in 10 hours or a day, right? If that was the case, those red-named players will have to stay in the novice village for a long time. I’m more inclined to pay to remove the sin value, and the amount should be substantial. Those red-named players will have a lot to suffer.”
“It’s impossible to take 10 hours or a day to remove a bit of sin value. After all, everyone won’t stay in the novice village for too long. Take us for example. We can level up to level five by noon. It should be no problem for us to reach level eight or nine before we go to sleep. Those who can level up quickly might be able to reach level 10 today and leave the novice village. If it takes 10 hours to get rid of some sin value, when will those who kill a lot be able to leave the novice village?” Thousand Miles Riding Alone interjected.
“Fortunately, we didn’t PK with anyone. If we have a red name, not only will we not be able to leave the novice village, even killing monsters will be very troublesome. Who knows, we might be ambushed. There’s no penalty for killing a red name. If we go out, we’ll be killed.” Zhang Shan said with some relief.
“Yeah, this novice village’s red name system is a bit of a scam. I don’t know how many people are going to get into trouble this time. The moment a red name leaves the village, they might be killed and lose their levels. They can only hide in a hidden place to level up. What a tragedy!” Thousand Miles Riding Alone gloated.
“Yeah, the level drops each time one dies. This death penalty is so heavy. Just like me, being so frail, how am I going to save my life?”
Zhang Shan was a little worried. It would be good if he could get some life-saving skills, such as displacement, magic immunity, and so on. Fortunately, the other classes did not have any control skills at the moment. Everyone was basically fighting each other, throwing skills, and competing in damage. As long as they had better equipment, they could still survive for some time.
“Brother, don’t be afraid. If anyone kills you in the future, just tell me. I’ll cut him until he can’t take care of himself,” Thousand Miles Riding Alone comforted him.
However, his comfort was meaningless. If he was killed by someone, he would lose all the levels that he was supposed to lose. What was the point of killing that person?
“Actually, the death penalty is not always dropping one level each time you die. For example, in the future, the Priest and Witch Doctor should have a resurrection skill that can resurrect their teammates. Those who are resurrected by the skill should not lose their experience or lose a small amount of experience.
“It’s impossible to drop a level each time you die. If that’s the case, who can take it? After all, subsequently, you may not be able to level up for a month. There are also some activities and dungeons. Death should not lose experience either,” Wind-Blowing Wind Chimes explained.
She really knew about games. People like Zhang Shan were like rookies. After all, he had been working all these years and had not played games for a long time. Just like what Thousand Miles Riding Alone said, he was already outdated. 1
When it was just eleven o’clock, a ray of light rose from Zhang Shan’s body.
System: Congratulations to the player, Six Guan Bodhisattva, for leveling up to Level 4. Skill Points +1, all attributes +2, free attribute points +5.
He just kept one skill point and continued to increase Headshots. This skill had to be leveled up before it could be used. If the probability was too low, it would be useless. All attributes were added agility.
Checking the attributes:
Character: Six Guan Bodhisattva 1
Class: Hunter
Level:
Health points: 1
Magic points: 70 1
Physical attack: 37-
Magic attack: 11-
Strength:
Agility:
Intelligence:
Defense: 5 3
Luck 9 (randomly generated within a range of 1-10, luck is a hidden attribute and will never change.)
Talent: Passive King (each time a monster is killed, there is a chance to randomly obtain a passive skill from the monster, and the probability is one in a million).
Skill 1, Headshot: (passive), level: level 4. Every attack of the musketeer has a chance to trigger the headshot effect, causing an additional 50 damage and stunning for 0.05 seconds, the chance of triggering 1.5%. 9
Equipment: novice clothes, novice musket, Black Iron Ring.
Zhang Shan looked at the experience bar. Level 4 to level 5 required 5,000 experience points, which was 1.5 times more than level 3 to level 4. It was getting harder and harder. A wild boar had 17 experience points, and they needed to kill close to 300 wild boars to level up. Based on the current farming speed of the three of them, it would take about two hours, unless they had the opportunity to update their equipment. 3
Not long after, Thousand Miles Riding Alone had also leveled up to level 4. After leveling up, Thousand Miles Riding Alone’s HP and defense had increased significantly. He lost less HP now when dealing with the demonized wild boar. 1
Wind-Blowing Wind Chimes had also added skill points to Rejuvenation Spell, increasing the healing effect. Now, she could directly heal 200 HP and recover 25 HP every second. In other words, the healing effect had increased by a total of 125 points. 1
“I’ve become stronger again. Hehe, the little wild boar is not challenging at all.” Thousand Miles Riding Alone proudly exclaimed.
“Yeah, we should be able to farm higher-level monsters, right? Wouldn’t that be more efficient?” Zhang Shan asked Wind-Blowing Wind Chimes. She should know more about monsters.
“We can indeed farm level 6 monsters, but it’s not necessary. The efficiency wouldn’t be much higher than this. Let’s continue farming wild boars. Demonized wild boars drop level 5 equipment. I heard that in other novice villages, there are people who have farmed level 5 green equipment on wild boars. Hopefully, we can farm one or two as well. That way, we’ll be even faster to reach level 5,” Wind-Blowing Wind Chimes replied.
When Zhang Shan and Thousand Miles Riding Alone heard this, they could only continue to kill the monsters quietly. To Zhang Shan, it didn’t matter what kind of monsters he farmed, as long as he could farm them.
The three of them had just finished clearing a bunch of wild boars. Just as they were about to turn to other monsters, they suddenly noticed a huge wild boar swaying back and forth in the distance.
“It’s a demonized wild boar king, a boss. Haha, no one has fought a boss yet. Let’s go, we can kill the wild boar king and have all sorts of level 5 equipment. Moreover, we might even be able to go on the world announcement and become famous,” Thousand Miles Riding Alone said excitedly.
“Wait, let’s check the attributes first. We have to be able to defeat it. Let’s slowly approach it and take a look first,” Zhang Shan called out to him.
The three of them slowly approached the wild boar king, and they could not help but be stunned.
“Is this a wild boar? I’m afraid it’s an elephant! How can a wild boar be so big?” Zhang Shan was instantly smitten.
“I can’t see the attributes.”
“The boss is higher level than us, so we can’t see the attributes. It’s different from the small monsters. We might have to fight it for a while before we can see it,” Wind-Blowing Wind Chimes speculated.
“Six Guan, go and try it out,” Thousand Miles Riding Alone said. He knew that he shouldn’t be able to stand it. The wild boar king’s body size was about the size of 10 normal wild boars, so its damage was probably terrifyingly high. Zhang Shan was a long-range player. With a single hit, he still had a chance to escape the aggro range. If he went up himself, it would be like sending food to the table.
“I don’t think I can. I don’t have shoes, so there’s no way I can outrun the boss. The speed of the normal monsters isn’t slower than mine. If the wild boar king chased me, I would definitely die.” Although Zhang Shan also wanted to fight the boss to drop some good stuff, he couldn’t do it. It was not worth it if he didn’t kill the boss but dropped a level.
“Check if there is any map nearby that you can use. Once you fight it, you can block the boss’s vision and find a blind spot to avoid it from seeing you. That way, you should be able to escape.” Wind-Blowing Wind Chimes was also very excited. This might be the first boss in the New World, so it would definitely drop good stuff.
The three of them split up to look for an advantageous terrain near the wild boar king. Suddenly, Zhang Shan saw two large rocks. There was a small gap between the rocks, so he could easily run through them. The wild boar king was so big, so he definitely could not pass through it. He could hide behind one of the rocks, so the wild boar king would not be able to see him. However, he was not sure if the boss would take a detour and chase after him. freew(e)bnovel.(c)om
Thinking up to this point, Zhang Shan shouted on the team channel, “Come over here and take a look. We should be able to try here.”
Very quickly, Thousand Miles Riding Alone and Wind-Blowing Wind Chimes ran over.
“This terrain is perfect. Do you guys think the gap between the two rocks can stop the boss?” Thousand Miles Riding Alone asked expectantly.
...
“Probably not. The gap is too small. The wild boar king’s body is so big. How can it get stuck here? It can’t even get in.” Wind-Blowing Wind Chimes thought carefully for a while and replied.
“I’m worried that the boss won’t chase after us if it can’t see us. What if it takes a detour and comes after us?” Zhang Shan didn’t care about the problem of blocking the boss. That was wishful thinking. He just wanted to take a look at the attributes of the boss first, then he would guess what kind of equipment and team would be needed to defeat it. 1
“What are you afraid of? If the boss takes a detour, you can play King Qin Circling the Pillar with it. It definitely won’t be able to hit you. Get ready, go, Brother, I have high hopes on you,” Thousand Miles Riding Alone said without a care in the world.
Zhang Shan was speechless. He was asking him to take the risk. However, what he said made sense. If the boss took a detour and chased after him, he could at most run back and forth between the two rocks. There was indeed no chance of hitting him. 1
“You guys hide a little further away first. I’ll give it a try.”
He did as he was told. Zhang Shan carefully approached the wild boar king. When he reached the attack range, Zhang Shan shot at the boss. Before he could check the attributes of the boss, the wild boar king let out a howl. Its eyes were red. It charged at him like a madman. Its speed was extremely fast.
Zhang Shan turned his head and ran. He could hear the whistling of the wind behind him. The wild boar king was madly chasing after him. When he got close to the two rocks. He heard Thousand Miles Riding Alone shouting, “Run quickly, the boss is accelerating.”
Zhang Shan ignored him and rushed through the gap between the two rocks. Hearing a loud “bang” from behind, Zhang Shan could not help but laugh when he looked back. He saw that the wild boar king was stuck in the gap. Its head and neck were a little flattened.
Zhang Shan tried to attack. Oh my God, what kind of defense was this? He could not hit it at all.
Checking his attributes:
Demonized wild boar king: HP 20,000, attack 516, skill 1: enhanced collision, skill 2: heavy strike.
...
Enhanced collision: the enraged wild boar king will madly accelerate towards its target, causing knockback and dizzy effects, and increasing damage by 1,000.
Heavy strike (passive): every attack of the wild boar king has a chance to trigger the heavy strike effect, causing five times the damage. 5
Seeing that the boss was stuck, Zhang Shan continued to attack. -3-2-3, the damage values kept popping up. 3
