Chapter 3 The First Battle
The bearded uncle gave him a small package containing dry food and a water bag made of unknown animal skin, and said: "Although the blessed ones can survive by relying on potions, you should bring some food in case of emergencies. Add more food along the way." Be careful."
"Thank you." Huang Chao felt the uncle's kindness and sincerely thanked him.
"You're welcome, please rush to Isrian as soon as possible and tell them the news about the alchemist, take care!"
Carrying a package on his back, carrying a wooden staff, and a cow dog, Huang Chao hurried towards Isrian in the heavy rain. The Destroyer told him that as long as he followed this dirt road, he could reach Ithrian in half a day under normal circumstances.
In the camp, the Destroyer watched Huang Chao's back gradually disappear, with a solemn expression: "I hope he can arrive smoothly." Then he coughed violently, blood gushed from the corner of his mouth, his body was shaking, and the two conquerors hurried forward , and helped him into the tent.
Huang Chao trudged through the muddy water for half an hour, and the rain finally stopped. He was thankful that the dirt road was paved with a lot of stones, which prevented him from completely sinking his feet into the mud.
Such a bad road condition, the cow dog did not fall behind, it is really a good dog.
Huang Chao stood still and looked into the distance. The path in front of him directly led to a deep valley. It is said that on the other side of the valley is the city of Isrian. He already knew in the game that the road was full of ratmen, storm bears and fighting beasts, and fighting was inevitable.
Huang Chao took a deep breath, found a clean stone to sit down and rest, and studied the space-time foil by the way.
He noticed that in the hollow circle on the initial interface, the progress of "0.00%" has changed to "0.01%" at some point, and the horizontal bar below is still "0/1000", and these two expressions can be confirmed different things.
He called out the attribute bar, which showed his low attributes. His consciousness was focused on the attributes, and no attribute description appeared. Huang Chao is not in a hurry, as long as he focuses on intelligence like in the game, he will soon learn the secret of the space-time foil.
The pet fence is similar to a game. Huang Chao looked at the pet fence while looking at the cow dog. He really couldn't understand how the cow dog could carry so many things. In the end, it can only be attributed to the law of the world: "This world is like this, and existence is reasonable."
He looked at the data column, similar to that in the game, mostly explaining his own specific information. He doesn't know how these things are reflected in reality, and he needs to study further in the future. The quest bar simply says "Warning Ithrian" quest description, with money and experience rewards underneath.
In the equipment column, his backpack is empty, but his weapon is a staff, which is the most basic white equipment, and its attributes are appalling. Huang Chao found that his clothes and shoes were not considered equipment. He put down the staff, the equipment column showed empty, and there was no staff in the item!
"This?" Huang Chao suddenly understood something. He picked up the staff again, thinking to himself: "Remove it." The staff in his hand suddenly disappeared, and a staff appeared in the inventory, occupying a square just like in the game.
Huang Chao tried several times, and came to the conclusion that the inventory is an unknown space, he can put weapons in it, and transfer it to his hand immediately with his thoughts. I don't know what's going on with other equipment, but after fighting monsters for a while, the equipment in various parts will inevitably explode, so just try it at that time.
He took out the magic bottle of blood from his backpack and transferred it to the inventory with his thoughts. Dry food and drinking water cannot be put in. It seems that only the props in the game can be put in the inventory. The staff is a wooden stick weighing about ten kilograms. Now it is placed in the inventory without any burden. The storage space is really convenient.
Look at the skill bar again, it's the same as the mage's skill bar in the game.
"It's really a game world." Huang Chao sighed, taking off his shoes to clean up the mud on them.
His movements stopped suddenly, remembering something that had been neglected all along. These sneakers are what he usually wears,
But the problem is, when he returned to the dormitory, he had already put on his slippers!
Huang Chao remembered that he was very tired at the time, and he had come to this world after waking up, but would he help him change his shoes during the time travel? He looked at his clothes again and fumbled in his trouser pockets, but the money and campus card were all gone.
"I've never heard of it. The traversal system will also help change shoes. What's the meaning of taking my money and card away?!"
In fact, this is a two-dimensional projection of Huang Chao's normal state by the time-space foil, and what appears in the world of Torchlight now is only Huang Chao's virtual image and soul consciousness. So it cuts out some elements that are completely useless in this world.
He tasted the dry food that the Destroyer gave him, and it tasted pretty good. It was high in oil and sugar, and it was quite suitable for carrying in the wild. A few pieces could meet the energy needs of the day. He drank some more water, then continued to sit on the rock, watching the scenery pass the time, occasionally looking at the screen.
Thankfully, there are no mosquitos in the wild here. Huang Chao felt that a long time had passed, at least more time than on the road just now, and the number in the center of the circle suddenly changed to "0.02%". At the lower part of the ring, a hint of green appeared.
Huang Chao thought: "The number of the ring can automatically increase with time. When it is estimated to be 100%, it happens to be filled with green. It should be to accumulate some kind of energy and open the space-time channel when it reaches the full value."
He stood up and headed towards the valley. The cow dog ran back and forth, as if the dry ground made it happy. During this period, the cow dog didn't bark all the time, so Huang Chaogao took a look at it: "Could it be that the cow dog is the legendary dog that bites people and doesn't bark?"
A few Ratmen appeared in front of them, and they didn't know what they were doing together. Facing the first batch of mobs that appeared in the game, Huang Chao was quite nervous. He clenched his stick tightly, and his breathing became short of breath.
The Ratman also saw Huang Chao, holding a torch and other weapons, and rushed towards Huang Chao in a jump.
"Okay, the speed is not as fast as mine, and you can get away if you can't beat them." Huang Chao felt confident when he saw their speed, and then quickly stepped forward to meet the rat man.
The Rat Man was about one meter tall, covered in black and gray hair, with a few dirty rags around the key parts. They bared their sharp teeth and squeaked, leaving saliva on the sides of their mouths, and their red eyes glowed with a gnawing light.
There were four Ratmen in total, and when they approached ten meters, Huang Chao felt his legs go weak, and immediately abandoned his previous plan to save mana. He said in his heart: "Magma Spear!"
Then he uncontrollably raised his staff with both hands and placed it across his chest, red fire gushed forward from between his hands, sweeping all the rat men who rushed up.
The Ratman let out a scream, but was still approaching. Huang Chao's heart sank. He had attacked several times in a short period of time, but the Ratman survived!
He focused his attention on the Rat Man in the lead, a blood streak floated above the Rat Man's head, and the opponent was already half-blooded. The appearance of the blood bar made Huang Chao feel more stable, and the appearance of the settings in the game made him feel unreal, which weakened the shock brought by the rat man.
The Rat Man had already rushed in front of him, Huang Chao took the opportunity to shoot another magma spear, the Rat Man's blood volume dropped significantly, and his hair was also ignited by the flames. A stench rushed into Huang Chao's nostrils along with the burning smell, making him dizzy and feeling a strong sense of nausea.
"This rat man is actually carrying a chemical attack?" This is something that is not reflected in the game. Huang Chao reacted a beat slower, and was immediately attacked by the Ratmen. The ratman's rusty broken knife slashed at Huang Chao's arm that was hastily resisting.
Huang Chao let out a scream, gritted his teeth, swung his staff, and hit the Rat Man in the side. The cow and dog rushed up at the same time and bit the Ratman hard.
These two blows killed the Rat Man, who snorted and fell dead. Seeing this scene, the three ratmen in the back immediately screamed and ran back, which was in line with the setting of the ratmen: run away when their companions die.
Huang Chao hates this when playing games, because every time he has to click the mouse to chase the scattered ratmen, but now he is very grateful for this setting.
He lost a bit of health, but he was fine, so he aimed directly at a rat man and launched the magma spear. The red stream of fire hit the Ratman's back, and a raging fire ignited on its body, rolling and falling to the ground.
He took a few steps forward and killed another skaven in the same way, exhausting his own magic. The fourth rat man ran for a while, and when the "escape" time was over, he turned back and continued to fight. Huang Chao gave himself a low growl to embolden him, rushed forward with gritted teeth, and hit the rat man hard with his staff.
Huang Chao's weapons are better here, and with the help of the cow dog, he beat the rat man to death without any suspense. He himself was hit on the top of the head and shoulders by the torches of the Rat Man, and his head was in pain. When he touched it, it was full of blood, and it was difficult to move his shoulders.
Huang Chao took a breath, his face full of the look of the rest of his life.
Now he was trembling all over, watching the rat man on the ground tumbling in his stomach, but he hadn't eaten anything in the first place, and his digestion was usually quite good, so he didn't vomit in the end. There is his own blood on his body, as well as the blood of the Ratmen, and there is a rust-like smell constantly coming from him.
"I'm still very stubborn. I didn't even vomit. I'm really an excellent recruit." Huang Chao deliberately thought of some jokes to cheer himself up, and at the same time turned over the rat man's body with his staff palely.
What are you doing? Of course, it is to see if there is a lot of money and equipment.
Five gold coins appeared under a rat man's corpse. Huang Chao picked them up with his hands and found that the gold coins were very clean, not like those carried by the rat man at all. With a thought, the gold coins disappeared in his hand, and the number of gold coins in the inventory changed from 100 to 105.
