Volume 4 Dungeon Dungeon Chapter 190 Four Teams

The man was burly and wore a suit of armor made of gold and silver. The armor emanating from it was clearly of a blade-level quality or higher from the world of Miracle.

Such equipment not only boasts astonishing defensive capabilities but also comes with numerous attributes. However, for Li Wei, who already possesses true essence power, this equipment is no match for his own true essence shield.

After Li Wei condensed the True Essence Pill, his original Dragon Whisker Armor was upgraded to a level that was almost tangible. However, when fighting against experts of the highest level, even the True Essence Armor was still of little use, let alone other defensive equipment.

Li Wei then turned his attention to this person. He felt that the person looked somewhat familiar.

It was that warrior named Seventy-Two. Not only had he changed his equipment, but even the Crimson Sword in his hand had been jeweled and raised above the blade. Now, it shone brightly on his back, absolutely dazzling.

Moreover, the opponent's combat strength has also increased from level 1 to level 2.

"It's you guys! What a coincidence!" Seventy-Two walked over with a smile, followed by a large group of reincarnators, their combat strength ranging from level 1 to level 2, clearly all seasoned veterans.

Li Wei nodded to him; since they were acquaintances, it was necessary to greet them.

"The mission hasn't officially started yet, but considering we're both born in the same starting village, there shouldn't be any conflicts with the missions later on!" Having already advanced to the next level, Seventy-Two had naturally purchased the Insight Technique from the Shadow Hall, so he saw Li Wei and Zheng Yutong's combat power ratings. He was startled, but his expression remained impassive.

Just then, the Yellow Paper from the reincarnators popped out, clearly indicating that they were about to assign tasks.

"Mission Scenario, Legend World"

"Task 1: Obtain a pass to Mongchon. Task requirements: Collect four high-quality copper ores, four iron ores, and four Zombie Bones for the guards of the Bicheng City teleportation array. Upon completion, you will receive a teleportation pass. Task time limit: [number] days."

"Mission initiated!"

With a whoosh, the protective barrier surrounding the village vanished instantly, and the sounds of the outside world and the wind reached everyone's ears.

Li Wei looked around. There were four groups of reincarnators in this village. One group was naturally himself, Zheng Yutong, and Nina. The other group was the group led by Seventy-Two.

The remaining group, numbering several dozen people, was gathered in the center of the village. They were clearly also reincarnators from the other two teams.

Although there was no apparent conflict between them from the first mission, Li Wei did not let his guard down. Since they appeared in the same mission world, they were bound to have some interaction.

The other three teams weren't idiots either; they would definitely have figured this out.

"Gentlemen, I am the captain of Seventy-Two Squad. This mission doesn't seem to conflict with any of us, so we can work together to complete it. Of course, each squad should collect its own mission items, and we should look out for each other if we encounter danger!"

Seventy-Two stood at the village entrance and shouted loudly when he saw the other two reincarnation teams arriving.

He had just been promoted not long ago and was still riding high on the excitement. Naturally, he was full of pride, especially since he had conquered a Sand City in a remote area of the real world. At this moment, he felt as if he had the world at his fingertips.

However, Li Wei found his appearance quite comical, and after glancing at the other two teams, Li Wei saw that they all had the same expression.

"Heh heh, a mere Tier 1 dares to rant here. Although there won't be any conflicts between the different teams in this mission, I still want to tell you, don't mess with our Viper Squad, or the consequences will be unbearable for you." The captain of another team said with a ferocious look, not taking Seventy-Two seriously at all.

From the last remaining squad, a woman stepped forward. She was wearing a standard mage robe, and with a snap of her fingers, a spark appeared in her hand.

"You can fight all you want, but don't drag our Bisky Squad into it. Otherwise..." With that, the beautiful woman flipped her hand, and a ball of fire appeared in her palm. She then silently chanted a spell, and the fireball swiftly struck a piece of dead wood not far away, instantly igniting a raging fire.

Li Wei chuckled inwardly. She dared to show off such a petty trick of playing with fire. If she were to see the Xianjian formed from fire-attribute true essence, she would probably be utterly ashamed.

Seventy-Two gave an awkward smile. He had naturally realized that these people who were speaking were all newly promoted reincarnators, equally powerful, and none of them would submit to the others.

Generally, the Reincarnation Squads are named after their captains. Viper Squad Captain Viper, combat power Level A; Bisky Squad Captain Bisky, combat power Level A; Seventy-Two Squad Captain Seventy-Two, combat power level??

As for the last squad, that would naturally be Li Wei Squad.

Viper and Bisky were also reincarnators with the Insight Technique. They first glanced at Nina, then smiled disdainfully. Their expressions changed drastically when they looked at Zheng Yutong. But when they saw Li Wei clearly, they all...

",, field?"

The two gasped in surprise. Viper's previously upright body shrank instinctively, while Bisky stared at Li Wei, his previous shrewdness and competence vanishing without a trace.

They were all very clear about what it meant that they were actually Level 1 Reincarnators. There were fewer than a hundred people in the entire Shadow Street who could reach Level 1, and Xu only accounted for 20% of them. As for Gong, according to the two of them, only the old people had reached such a level.

Among them are a fearsome great wizard, a Daoist Daoist revered as a demigod, and a powerful summoner. Each one is a renowned reincarnator. Is this young man one of those from the past?

No matter how they looked at it, Viper and Bisky couldn't figure out the identity of the young man in front of them.

Perhaps he's a newly promoted field-level expert.

At this point, neither of them dared to say anything more. After advancing to the higher level, they understood their strength better than anyone else. Don't underestimate the difference of just one level; the combat power increased by several times. Putting others aside, each of them could easily deal with three level-3 Reincarnators. Correspondingly, a level-3 Reincarnator naturally had a great advantage over a level-4 Reincarnator. As for Gong, he was about to enter the higher level. If he intended to kill, everyone present combined probably wouldn't be his match.

Fortunately, Li Wei didn't have that thought at the moment. After thinking it over, the two of them led their teams out of the beginner village and instructed their subordinates not to make enemies of the Samsara Squad that had a powerful expert.

"Let's go too." Li Wei wouldn't want to cause any unnecessary trouble at this moment.

After saying goodbye to Seventy-Two, Li Wei and his companions left the beginner village. The wilderness was a verdant expanse. Tall trees stretched across the entire area, creating a green sea. Near the farmland, Li Wei spotted several moving scarecrows.

"Scarecrow, health points?? (Recalling the old version)"

The naturally active Nina walked in, and the scarecrow actually wobbled over and started attacking, only to be smashed into a pile of straw pieces by Nina.

"This monster is too weak!" Nina laughed and rushed into a large pile of scarecrows. In no time, she cleared them all away, and many items fell to the ground.

There were some gold coins and wooden swords, along with a few rings and necklaces.

These things were nothing more than trash to Li Wei and his companions at this point, clearly indicating that this was a low-level area. Without lingering, the three continued forward.

The mission specifies the items to be collected, but doesn't tell you where they are or how to collect them. However, Li Wei, who spent half a year playing this game during his university days, naturally knows where those three items come from.

In this area, minerals undoubtedly refer to mines, which coincidentally are also known as Zombie Cave. These caves are inhabited by zombies who died there for various reasons, and Zombie Bone are likely obtained from there.

Li Wei pondered that Zombie Bone could be obtained by killing many zombies, but what about ore?

In the game, you can only mine ore using pickaxes. If this rule applies here as well, then a pickaxe is a must-have.

Thinking of this, Li Wei walked over to Nina.

Clearly, the girl still harbored some unspoken feelings. Seeing Li Wei's hesitation and slightly flushed face, Li Wei had no choice but to skip the preamble and proceed directly into the room.

"You mean you want me to fly to Bicheng City to buy mining picks?" Nina's expression turned serious. She thought Li Wei would talk to her about something else.

"Yes, I guess the rule in this game world is that you can't mine without a pickaxe. Of course, this is just a setup. Anyway, we only need to make one trip, so it won't waste anything for us!" Li Wei explained simply.

The latter glanced at Zheng Yutong beside him, nodded, and with a whoosh, spread his Vampire wings and flew towards Bicheng City.

"Nina actually likes you a lot, didn't you realize?" Xiao Zheng Yutong looked at Nina, who had now turned into a black dot, and sighed softly.

"Yes, she's very straightforward; she'll say what she likes!" Li Wei said sarcastically, secretly glancing at Zheng Yutong, only to find her glaring at him, and quickly looked away.

Upon entering the forest, Li Wei encountered some low-level monsters, Rake Cat and Poison Spider.

Rake Cat, Health Ant Blade, Poison Spider, Health Spider

These two types of monsters are also the type that attack proactively. They will pounce on anyone who gets close and fight to the death. Unfortunately, they are still very weak, while the Orc encountered later are quite powerful.

Orc, health points

Upon seeing this Orc, Li Wei felt he recognized him, as if he had seen him somewhere before.

Suddenly, he remembered—wasn't that the group of ungrateful wretches Nina had rescued on the way to Sand City a few days ago?
