At this time, in a dense forest outside the territory of the small town of Benguela.
Zhou Bai was leading three teams of people and looking outside a cave.
These days, Zhou Bai has been leading people to this area.
It has to be said that there are really a lot of intermediate-level monsters around the town of Benguela, and Zhou Bai and his party made a lot of money.
Not to mention anything else, the undead and orcs who followed along all became mid-level professionals. Their original levels were higher than others, and their strength was also stronger. With enough magical beasts, their advancement speed was naturally faster.
As for the others including Zhou Bai, they basically all successfully advanced to level 19, and their current goal is to try to advance to level 20.
The closer you are to your goal, the more excited you become.
As soon as they encountered this group of intermediate magic rats, they immediately chased after them.
Not for anything else, just because of their numbers.
There can be hundreds of them in this group.
...
...
A large number means a lot of experience points.
In fact, Demon Rats are the least powerful race among all Magical Beasts. In addition, they are relatively small in size. Even if they are at a high level and their health is low, they will pose less threat to humans.
But they also have their own talent - digging holes.
As if they had sensed the threat posed by their group, this group of intermediate magic rats quickly started digging holes in the ground after being surrounded.
Perhaps due to the special geological conditions of this area, after the magic rats dug the hole, the ground began to collapse, revealing a huge underground cave.
The group of people could only prepare to start exploring.
After all, they could vaguely feel that the breath of the demon rat was concentrated in this underground cave.
This means that the demon rats did not flee, but hid in the caves and waited for their chance to strike.
"This group of demon rats think they have the upper hand in the cave and are preparing to ambush us!" Li Xingteng analyzed beside Zhou Bai.
This time he followed it strongly.
He knew that Zhou Bai was a roll king and also the village chief. She was going to lead the team out at this time. It went without saying that she was going to level up.
Moreover, before, his level had always been higher than that guy Zhou Zhengping.
Can he let go of such a good opportunity?
You must not!
So I followed.
Now it seems that he came to the right place. He is now only one "step" away from level 20, which means he is a mid-level professional.
He is now sharpening his fists and ready to kill everyone!
"Everyone be careful." Zhou Bai raised his voice directly.
Although their current strength is higher than that of the magic rats, they are still in great danger if the magic rats take advantage of the terrain to launch a sneak attack.
"Yes." Everyone responded in unison.
The next moment, Zhou Bai was ready to be the first to enter the cave.
Heidi, who was following along, stopped Zhou Bai and said, "Village Chief, let's go in first! It's safer there."
At this point in time, in fact, Heidi's undead team and the orcs from the other orc team were more like guardians in the team.
They have to keep Zhou Bai safe.
As for the other point, it was to take advantage of this opportunity to allow Zhou Bai to successfully advance to level 20, because they knew that this was the main purpose of Zhou Bai's trip.
"It's okay, I will protect myself." Zhou Bai said, and jumped down on his own.
As Zhou Bai moved, the people following her jumped down one after another.
When they jumped down, the magic rats hiding in the dark corners rushed over instantly and ran towards different people in different numbers.
Seeing them coming, Zhou Bai and the others did not dodge or evade, but directly faced them with weapons in hand.
The battles over the past few days have allowed them to develop a fighting style that suits them all.
Faced with the sudden attack of the magic rats, no one panicked at all and immediately started a fierce battle with the magic rats.
“Control their movements.”
"Shield."
"If you are bitten, retreat and seek treatment immediately."
“…”
In the crowd, Heidi was directing the battle. As for herself, she stood not far from Zhou Bai and casually dealt with the intermediate magic rats that pounced on her from all around.
In terms of fighting ability, Heidi is the strongest among the group.
He became a mid-level professional a long time ago, and his current level has reached 24.
Therefore, the attack of this group of monsters was like tickling to her.
But her strength lies in that she can perfectly control the damage she can inflict on the intermediate magic rat. With one move, she can not only beat the intermediate magic rat to a low health level, but more importantly, she can send the intermediate magic beast with low health to Zhou Bai.
At this time, Zhou Bai only needs to make a slight move to directly obtain all the experience points of the intermediate monster.
Zhou Bai felt a little helpless when this young lady fed him.
But in the end I accepted his kindness.
Some of the undead and orcs watching this scene would throw their low-health prey to Li Xingteng and his team.
Just like that, Zhou Bai and his group's experience points began to rise rapidly.
The magic rat was frightened by their move and was ready to continue digging the hole and running away, but Heidi, the magician, had a plan in place and used her space magic to lock the space.
Just like that, all the demon rats died in the hands of Zhou Bai and his group.
Although many people were injured or exhausted, they quickly recovered with the replenishment of medicines.
"Although this medicine is a little expensive, it is really useful!" Li Xingteng on the side couldn't help but speak after drinking a bottle of medicine.
"Although it costs money, life is more important," Zhou Bai said.
They only have one life, so they should cherish it.
If possible, she really hopes that everyone in the territory can always be safe and sound.
But she knew very well that casualties were truly unavoidable in this world.
As far as she knew, when the mercenary team was on an operation outside, if they were unlucky and encountered stronger monsters, there would be casualties.
The names of residents that she, as a lord, can see often turn gray.
"Yeah." Li Xingteng nodded.
He has registered in several Blue Star territories that Hope Village has been able to contact, but has not found any news about his wife and daughter. He will continue to look for them, but he must also be prepared for the possibility that they will not come to this world.
No matter what, he has to live, because only by living can there be hope.
As for the others, most had the same idea.
"Village chief, come and take a look." At this time, a person who was cleaning up the battlefield afterwards made a discovery in the cave.
In an instant, Zhou Bai's attention was drawn to it.
When we reached the edge of the cave and dug up a layer of soil, we saw the gray-black stones inside.
"It has just been identified and it shows to be a metal material, but I don't know what kind of metal it is."
Upon hearing this, Zhou Bai also picked up a piece and took a look at it.
[Item: A metal material]
Zhou Bai was a little surprised. Generally speaking, the appraisal would give an answer!
At this time, Heidi and her group came over, and after hearing Zhou Bai's confusion, they explained, "Only materials that have been discovered and used by people will have their names displayed, and the names are given by the people who discovered them."
"In that case, let's dig!" Zhou Bai said directly, "I have a feeling that this stone may be of great use."
She didn't know what the world said, but on Blue Star, as long as it was metal, it could be used in a big way.
It’s better to dig first.
"good."
Everyone responded in unison.
Immediately afterwards, except for a few people guarding outside the cave, everyone, including Zhou Bai, began to dig ore diligently.
In this way, it took a whole day to mine all the ore, and everyone's backpacks were already full.
Fortunately, everyone was out for several days and brought enough backpacks.
"This mine may be very valuable?" Heidi said to Zhou Bai after completing the excavation task.
"What do you mean?" Zhou Bai asked curiously.
"Generally speaking, the more ore there is in a place, the less energy it requires and the more common it is. Conversely, the less ore there is, the more precious it is." Heidi talked about the common sense of this world. "The ore here was mined in such a short time, which just fits this situation."
Zhou Bai listened and nodded, "If it's true, then our luck is really good."
"Yes, the town of Benguela can become the capital of craftsmen because there are many mineral resources around it, and they have been explored a long time ago. I didn't expect that there are still some so close to them. It can only mean that we are really lucky." Heidi agreed, and then looked at Zhou Bai with a smile.
Looking at this scene, the people around were all a little stunned unconsciously.
In fact, Heidi is a very beautiful woman with delicate and three-dimensional facial features, fair skin, beautiful face and long legs. However, her personality is very cold on weekdays. In addition, when she came to Hope Village, she was the strongest professional in Hope Village. Later, she was one of the first people in Hope Village to become an intermediate professional.
In everyone's mind, she is a strong person. In addition, many people were really beaten badly when they fought with her. In such a situation, they would subconsciously ignore her appearance.
As a result, I laughed at this moment, and it really felt like they were blooming everywhere!
As if she had noticed the looks from the people around her, Heidi immediately restrained herself the next moment, and a chill spread out of her out of habit.
Others also reacted instantly.
Well, this is the Captain Heidi they know!
Yes, although the Hope Village has established military ranks, no one has yet become a colonel. Among the lieutenants, Heidi is well-deserved in terms of both rank and contribution.
Anyway, they saw clearly that only the village chief Zhou Bai could make Heidi smile, and no one else could.
Zhou Bai noticed this unique "preference" and couldn't help but curl the corners of his mouth.
She was really lucky. The summoned undead basically did not cause trouble and were very kind to her. Bayer and Heidi helped her a lot.
I think, without their assistance, Hope Village would not have reached its current state so easily.
Maybe it’s because the special building is Valhalla, so the souls summoned are all good undead?
The more Zhou Bai thought about it, the more he felt that this possibility was very high.
After all, even if you are lucky, it is impossible to summon good undead every time.
"Everyone, cover this area, and then continue searching for the group of monsters." Zhou Bai called out after he came back to his senses.
Over the past few days, they have already gotten used to high-density hunting and have adapted to this rhythm. Of course, they will also find a suitable place to rest at night to ensure that they have enough energy during the day.
After a short while, the group had cleaned up the "battlefield" here and continued to search for the traces of the group of monsters.
Taking advantage of this time, Zhou Bai looked at his own panel.
[Level: lv.19 (170200/200000)]
Similar to the situation from level 9 to level 10, when it comes to the final breakthrough stage, the experience points required for the last level will change drastically.
The same is true from level 19 to level 20. It only takes 90,000 experience points to reach level 19, but at level 20, it becomes 200,000. If we take a level 20 intermediate monster as an example, after reaching level 19, you need to hunt and kill 137 of them.
Therefore, for a village-level territory, it is a difficult task to support a group of mid-level professionals. Generally speaking, it is likely that only a small number of professionals with strong abilities can come to the fore.
However, after being promoted, such professionals would easily leave the village and choose a higher-level town for better development.
Thinking of this, Zhou Bai once again felt that choosing to take advantage of the small town of Benguela was the right choice.
After all, there is an old saying on Blue Star that goes, "I would rather my fellow Taoist die than let myself die."
It would be a waste not to kill the monsters in Benguela Town, and it would also clear the obstacles for the caravans between Benguela Town and Hope Village.
**
In the following time, Zhou Bai and his team searched for and dealt with the group of monsters.
With everyone's concerted efforts, gradually, the humans in the team advanced.
As the main force among them, Zhou Bai is naturally
[Congratulations to the host, for killing the lv.22 Scorpion, and obtaining..., experience points*880, copper coins*880. ]
[Congratulations host, you have reached level 20, you have become a mid-level professional. ]
[The host's current professions are swordsman and magician. 】
[Checking host qualifications...]
[Test completed, the host's optional occupations are: (physical skills) archer, mercenary, swordsman... (magic) magician, summoner...]
[Note: Currently the host can start a new career. Friendly reminder, it is better to focus on one career. ]
After Zhou Bai was promoted, she looked at the news on the panel with a somewhat strange expression. She really didn't expect that after reaching level 20, she could start a new career?
So should we turn it on?
Thinking about it, Zhou Bai asked himself, whether the two professions of swordsman and magician had affected his strength?
The answer is obvious, no!
She even vaguely felt that the opening of these two professions made her stronger.
Finally, the focus was fixed on the summoner profession.
[Summoner: Communicate with magic elements and use special spells to summon different monsters to fight according to their strength. ]
That's it!
[Confirmed occupation: Summoner]
【Career opening】
Following the system's voice, Zhou Bai felt some changes in his body at this moment. First, he felt as if his whole body was full of strength, and his perception of magical elements became more sensitive. He felt indescribably comfortable. Then, he had a little sense of the position of the surrounding monsters, and even some spells about summoning emerged in his mind.
But when the spell came to her lips, she couldn't utter it. It was obvious that she had not yet fully mastered it and needed some time to adapt.
Take another look at the control panel.
Compared to a newly-activated professional who can practice all his skills by himself, a summoner is at an intermediate level right after activation, and also comes with a few initial skills, but these skills are all in a primary state.
[Occupation: Summoner]
[Skills: Summoning (primary), Control (stun, slow down, bind) (primary)]
These skills can only be used after the summoning is successful.
Under such circumstances, Zhou Bai could only suppress his emotions and continue to look at his panel data.
【Character: Zhou Bai】
[Race: Human]
[Level: lv.20 (200200/220000)]
[Identity: Lord of Hope Village, Mayor of Hope Village, Resident of Hope Village]
[Occupation: Magician (Intermediate), Swordsman (Intermediate), Summoner (Intermediate)]
[Health: 4000/4000]
[Physical Strength: 4000/4000]
[Magic value: 4000/4000]
[Attributes: Constitution (40/40), Intelligence (38/40), Agility (40/40), Defense (39/40)]
【Talent: Leadership】
[Contribution: 8692 (Exchange)]
Looking at this new data panel, Zhou Bai felt a strange sense of satisfaction.
Obviously, this is a very high score for someone who has just entered the intermediate professional level, and it is a world of difference from the panel of a beginner professional.
All of this was achieved through her hard work bit by bit; not a single one of her achievements was wasted; it can be said that this was the result of years of hard work.
The most important thing is that after she was promoted to level 20 as a lord, she had met the conditions for the territory to be promoted to a town. The remaining population and buildings were just a matter of time.
She was finally ahead of the territory's development, instead of always playing catch up.
Next, we have to continue working hard to maintain this advantage.
Thinking of this, Zhou Bai felt a lot more relaxed.
"Congratulations to the village chief for successfully advancing to the intermediate level." On the side, Heidi saw Zhou Bai's condition and congratulated him.
After all, the aura characteristics of primary and intermediate professionals are still very obvious.
Zhou Bai's aura is even stronger than other mid-level professionals.
Knowing Zhou Bai's identity, she naturally knew what Zhou Bai's advancement and strength meant. As a member of Hope Village, she was also happy.
It is their luck to have such a lord.
They all saw how hard the lord worked during the promotion process.
Thinking of this, Heidi's eyes showed a hint of respect.
After listening to Heidi's words, Zhou Bai came back to his senses and thanked Heidi.
Then his eyes fell on the people around him who were also advancing.
As they advanced, their auras were also changing, and Zhou Bai could keenly sense the strength of their auras.
Those who have a good foundation on weekdays will have a noticeably stronger aura after being promoted.
Take Li Xingteng for example, the magical elements around him are more active than those of other people.
However, although there are differences in strength, there has basically been significant improvement, which shows that their daily training is very practical.
After a short while, all the people who were promoted had completed the promotion.
The few who didn't advance looked at them with curiosity and asked directly, "How is it? What's the difference after the intermediate level?"
"The difference is huge. All attribute points have doubled, and health, magic points, and stamina have also doubled."
"Also, it can actually open up a new career."
"Hey, you started a new career? I didn't."
"It should be related to personal talent, but I didn't choose to open it. I'm biting off more than I can chew. I plan to wait until I become a professional. Now these two professions are enough for me to display my talents."
"That's what I think."
"I only chose the magician at the beginning, and now I just opened an additional swordsman because I found that the magician is too fragile."
“I am turned on
"It's okay if you think you can take care of it!"
“…”
As they chatted, several people began to talk about the pros and cons of various professions and expressed their own opinions.
This made the few people around who had not yet had time to advance to the next level excited.
What if others have it but I don’t?
They feel that they can still perform well!
"Village leader, shall we continue?"
Zhou Bai looked at their anxious expressions, then nodded and said, "Go on! You will be the ones taking charge from now on. After you advance, we will return to the territory."
"Okay."
Then, Zhou Bai began to experiment with his summoner's perception of Warcraft.
"Let's go this way!" Zhou Bai took the lead.
Seeing this, the others followed her without hesitation.
After a while, everyone arrived at a rocky forest.
In the rocky forest, the ground is covered with various small and large stones, and the terrain is relatively flat.
"We're here." Zhou Bai said subconsciously, because she could feel that there were monsters here.
But after she finished speaking, she looked at the bare ground and remained silent for a moment.
Did she feel wrong?
Just as Zhou Bai was thinking this, a magician in the team spoke.
"Underground!"
As these three words were spoken, suddenly, monsters as thick as ropes began to jump out from the ground.
[Warcraft: Hydralisks]
[Level: lv.20]
[Introduction: There are sharp thorns on the tail, which are also highly poisonous. It hides underground and will suddenly jump out when it encounters prey. It will stab the target and then flee immediately. It will only appear after it is sure that the target is dead.]
Immediately, all personnel set up a layer of magical defense on themselves without hesitation.
After repelling these magic thorn snakes, the team members took out the woven nets without hesitation.
Hehe, they are very experienced in dealing with snake monsters.
After all, the C people have a hidden fear of snakes in their bodies, so they ordered equipment for catching demon snakes from the tailor shop early on.
A lot of green and orange levels have been prepared.
There are few purple grade ones, but they do exist.
This time, it comes in handy.
One net, one, one net, a bunch.
In a short while, the group of devil thorn snakes had no time to retreat and were trapped by many people.
With this group, there will be no problem in the promotion of the remaining professionals.
Heidi was a little dumbfounded when she saw this scene.
them
Sure enough, the people in Hope Village always give them unexpected surprises.
"Village chief, were you using a new profession just now?" Heidi asked Zhou Bai.
Zhou Bai listened and said directly: "Well, I started the summoner profession, and I seem to have a little perception of the existence of Warcraft, so I tried it. I didn't expect that this perception is not bad."
Heidi: “…”
I didn't expect he was so talented!
Who can feel the Warcraft feeling right after starting the summoner profession?
While Heidi was silent, the remaining few professionals also successfully advanced to intermediate professionals by killing the magic thorn snake.
"Haha, I advanced!"
"I advanced too!"
“I’m wondering if I should start a new career?”
"Open it! I still want to! But the magician is still my only option."
"Then open it! It's just a little troublesome! Just roll it up a little more and it will be fine."
“…”
Heidi felt even more irritated when she saw this.
Their talents are truly enviable!
I really want to know what it will be like when all these people’s professions have grown up.
No, she would have to work harder next time. If she didn’t have enough quantity, she could make up for it with quality. Otherwise, she might be surpassed by these perverts one day.
"Village chief, we can go back now!" At this time, the excited new intermediate professionals said happily to Zhou Bai.
This trip has ended successfully.
After returning, they can show off properly.
They finally caught up with the progress.
I'm afraid that when I go back this time, many people will be surprised!
"Okay." Zhou Bai agreed immediately.
They have been out for several days, and they don’t know what is happening in Hope Village?
I always feel that there are surprises waiting for her in Hope Village?
Three in one～
