No one expected Lin Xiaoxiao to make the first move, not even the White Wolf King, let alone Ling Yi and the others.
He even gave Lin Xiaoxiao a very human-like look.
It's probably saying, "Girl, what's wrong with you? Why did you start it?"
But this Wolf King is not someone Lin Xiaoxiao can handle right now.
Fifth Tier Demonic Beast, which is roughly level 50 to 60, while Lin Xiaoxiao is only level 9.
Physical fitness score: 27.
Although her Spiritual Cultivation level makes her strength comparable to a monster of level 20 or higher, if she gets desperate, she could even take on a monster of level 30 or higher in a one-on-one fight.
This Hui Lang King is level 55 with nearly 300 points of Constitution, so Lin Xiaoxiao's stats are completely inadequate.
Sure enough, the Hui Lang king extinguished the three energy balls Lin Xiaoxiao had launched with a few swipes of its claws, as easily as extinguishing a candle flame.
So, Lin Xiaoxiao looked at Ling Yi again.
"Ha, women!"
Ling Yi was truly impressed; just how much do you like this White Wolf King?!
Fine, what can you do when the White Wolf King is so handsome?
Ling Yi accelerated and appeared in front of the Hui Lang Hui Lang, slapping it across the face.
A physical fitness score of 400 points allows for a 100-meter dash time of under one second.
With that slap, various special effects were triggered on Ling Yi, and the Hui Lang King was instantly killed.
Compared to the level 74 Sea Demon, the Hui Lang King's strength is far weaker.
Moreover, Ling Yi is now completely different from what he was two and a half days ago.
"Notification: Congratulations, host, for defeating the Fifth Tier Demonic Beast, Wolf of Swiftness), and gaining 280,000 experience points!"
"Notification: Congratulations, host, for defeating the Fifth Tier Demonic Beast, Wolf of Swiftness), and you have received 90,000 Ancient Coins!"
"Notification: Congratulations, host, you have obtained the skill ' Rapid Speed Slaying ' x1!"
"Notification: Congratulations, host, you have acquired the skill ' Bleeding ' x1!"
A line of text rose from the lower left corner of Ling Yi's vision.
Wow, what a double kill! Two skill books dropped right off.
Of course, what pleased Ling Yi wasn't this, but rather that the notification finally stopped mentioning "mutation".
This means that, according to the system's assessment, this Wolf King is the boss!
" Rapid Speed Slaying ": A swordsman-type active skill. When activated, it allows you to attack back and forth between targets twice in succession. The cooldown is 10 seconds. Upgrading it increases the damage ratio, the number of back-and-forth attacks, and reduces the cooldown time!
" Bleeding ": A swordsman-type active skill that deals significant damage to a target upon hit and has a chance to trigger Bleeding effect.
The description of the second skill is a bit vague, but without a doubt, both of these skills are good and very suitable for melee classes.
At this moment, Ling Yi accelerated and arrived in front of the White Wolf King again.
"Submit or die!" Ling Yi stared at the White Wolf King, raised his fist, and asked coldly.
The White Wolf King thought for a second, then collapsed to the ground, limbs facing upwards.
Ling Yi was taken aback for a moment, then realized that this was the Wolf King's gesture of goodwill and submission.
Then, Ling Yi's team gained Wolf King pet.
Although he was threatened, the Wolf King's favorability towards Ling Yi instantly rose to 100%.
This Affection is baffling. I threatened you, and you still have feelings for me? Are you sure this is Affection and not Loyalty?
You could understand Ling Yi having 100% Loyalty, but 100% Affection seems a bit too unrealistic.
Because the Affection rating was met, the Wolf King was added to the [Friend] list.
It was completely dark by then, and there was clearly no time to find a suitable campsite.
Ling Yi jumped directly onto the Wolf King's back, patted its head, and asked, "Is there any relatively safe place nearby where we can rest?"
Ling Yi hadn't expected the Ling Yi to understand, but to his surprise, the Wolf King nodded and led Ling Yi westward.
Ling Yi turned to the group of people, whose eyes were practically green with envy, and said, "Let's go!"
Lin Xiaoxiao turned around, picked up her backpack from the ground, and quickly chased after him. The others also picked up their backpacks and hurriedly followed.
Among these people, Chai Zhiwei's backpack was the largest.
It makes a clanging and rattling sound when it runs, and I have no idea what's inside.
At that moment, Ling Yi was thinking about something else that was even more important.
This Wolf King is an invasive species from a black hole, and this is the wild where humans are rarely encountered. In other words, it's impossible for this Wolf King to have learned human language from the humans in this world.
That means the Wolf King was able to understand human language because it learned it from the humans in its own world.
In other words, the world in which the Wolf King resides is still a world dominated by human civilization.
This confirms Ling Yi's earlier guess.
Thinking about this, Ling Yi became even more eager to explore the world behind those black holes.
Soon, the White Wolf King led everyone to a valley five kilometers away.
Because it was dark, the scenery of the valley was not visible, but the lake reflecting the moonlight and the shadowy trees in the distance could be seen.
The Wolf King lived in a cave.
Although the entrance to the cave was large, the space inside was not large. It was enough for the Wolf King, but Ling Yi and the others could not fit inside.
However, given their physical condition, it didn't matter whether they set up a campsite or not.
Just find any flat spot and spend the night there.
Gao Yuntian took the initiative to go hunting, while Chai Zhiwei put down his backpack and took out pots, pans, and other utensils.
No wonder this thing makes such a clanging and rattling sound when it runs; it's carrying all its tools.
Liu Hang brought a simple tent.
It looks like it was made by myself; it has quite a few patches on it.
Although the tent was simple, it was quite large, measuring seven meters long and nine meters wide when set up, with windows and a door, and it looked rather decent.
No wonder this guy's backpack looks the biggest and lightest.
Although the tent offers no protection whatsoever, it at least provides shelter from the wind and rain in the wilderness.
Bai Hai's backpack contained various ingredients such as oil, salt, soy sauce, and vinegar.
As for Lin Weiwei's backpack, it contained Map, a diary, and some bottles and jars.
It wasn't cosmetics, but rather insect repellents and Aura -concealing agents.
Ling Yi also carried a backpack, but it was filled with various expensive medical supplies.
Ling Yi bought all of this last night; the contents of just this backpack Ling Yi are worth tens of millions.
Fortunately, Ling Yi is not short of money now, with tens of millions, so he only needs to grind monsters for a day or two.
"It seems you West City you brought."
Ling Yi tossed the mutated wild boar leg bone, which he had just finished gnawing on, to the White Wolf King and said with a smile.
The campfire in front of them burned brightly, its light reflecting on their faces and making them look radiant.
"It must have been planned beforehand. We can't bring too much stuff, so each of us can only focus on one thing."
This is a very smart approach, but Ling Yi was busy buying treatment potions last night and didn't have time to discuss these things.
Otherwise, Ling Yi would have taken them to buy some high-end goods long ago.
Unfortunately, his system inventory couldn't hold non-system items; otherwise, he would have dared to buy up many shops in Red City.
I wonder when I'll be able to get a storage device.
Or, to put it another way, when will we be able to travel back to the other side of the black hole, and then find a cultivation world to enter?
What Ling Yi didn't know was that his idea was about to come true.
"These are the two skill books that the Hui Lang king dropped earlier. You guys discuss who should use them?"
Upon hearing Ling Yi's words, the eyes of the others lit up.
"These are all swordsman skill books; Lin Xiaoxiao and Bai Hai can't use them," Ling Yi added.
Lin Xiaoxiao quickly lowered her head again and went to pet the White Wolf King.
Even if she could use it, she'd be too embarrassed to ask for it again, since she'd already taken the first spot.
Bai Hai shrugged. He wasn't in a hurry. Since Ling Yi could unleash skills again, he would eventually be able to create his own Magic Mage skill book.
The remaining three are Qi Cultivation Liu Hang, Gao Yuntian, and Body Cultivation Chai Zhiwei. Of course, these three also have a hidden profession under the World Rule: Swordsman.
The three of them looked at each other, all wanting it but too embarrassed to ask for it.
"Could you tell me what skill it is?" Gao Yuntian asked.
"A skill called ' Rapid Speed Slaying ' allows for a double attack on the target. Basically, if there's only one monster in front of you, you can attack it twice, dealing double damage."
"If there are two monsters in front of you, you can attack one monster and then continue attacking the next. If you level up and can perform multiple back-and-forth attacks, the attack power will definitely be explosive."
The three of them began to breathe rapidly. Bai Hai swallowed enviously, thinking, "It's a pity I can't become Magic Mage."
"The second skill is called ' Bleeding.' This skill is a single-target attack with very high attack power. Targets hit by it have a chance to enter a Bleeding state."
"As for what the Bleeding state is like, I don't know, but it should be quite intense."
Everyone fell silent.
These are all incredibly awesome skills, I want them all!
Ling Yi knew what they were thinking and was very satisfied with their attitude.
"Don't worry about it so much. There will be plenty of skill books later," Ling Yi said, pointing to the White Wolf King.
" Little White knows there are many bosses nearby. Starting tomorrow, we'll switch to farming bosses and try to collect all your skills."
" Little White is that awesome? Seriously, you just named the White Wolf King Little White like that? Doesn't that name seem a bit unworthy of Little White's good looks?"
After hearing Ling Yi's words, Chai Zhiwei's voice trembled with excitement, but his habit of gossiping remained unaffected.
"It's just a name, it's not important. You see, Little White didn't object, did she?"
The White Wolf King rolled his eyes in a very human-like manner. "I have a name, okay? Don't just give me that name!"
Unfortunately, it can't speak, and even if it could, it wouldn't dare to. This new owner is terrifying; it's not someone to mess with.
"Why isn't a name important? Little White disagrees!" Lin Xiaoxiao raised her hand in protest.
"Does it matter?" Ling Yi was speechless. Why are you getting so worked up?
"This is important!"
"Alright, then the task of naming Little White is yours."
After a pause, Ling Yi steered the conversation back to the previous topic. "In other words, you won't lack skills in the future, but you need to carefully consider how to choose those skills."
"I'm satisfied with just having a skill to learn, why would I need to choose?" Chai Zhiwei asked, puzzled.
Liu Hang and Gao Yuntian, however, seemed to be deep in thought.
At this moment, Bai Hai said, " Ling Yi means that you should choose your own future development direction, such as group attack and group output, single attack with high damage, or high defense and damage resistance."
Ling Yi gave Bai Hai a thumbs up. Although this guy seemed shy, he was really smart and could easily understand what he meant.
That's exactly what I mean.
Chai Zhiwei thought for a moment and then said, "I'm Body Cultivation, so I naturally focus on defense. You should learn these two attack skills!"
"Then I'll choose ' Bleeding,' I like explosive damage output," Gao Yuntian said.
"Haha, I was just about to say I wanted to choose ' Rapid Speed Slaying '," Liu Hang laughed.
"Well, perfectly solved!" Ling Yi clapped his hands and laughed.
As the night deepened and everyone drifted Dream Entry, Ling Yi opened his system interface.
He planned to clear out the skill books in his system inventory and complete the side quests while he was at it.
