Necromancer cutting down trees

Chapter 5 Proficiency Levels
"explain?"

In the gray and white space, the little devil representing Wang Yue embraces his hands, and opposite him is a fox, which is the image of the game system "Xiao Nuo".

"According to the update log version 0.2, in order to prevent players from cheating, you added the BOSS room shielding system function in that version."

"So, you mean my problem?"

Wang Yue looked at the fox with a straight face, and after "Xiao Nuo" reminded him, he had indeed used such a one-size-fits-all technique to prevent cheating and defeat the boss.

But it would be embarrassing to admit it directly, so he decided to throw the blame to the system.

"Why didn't you remind me when I entered the door? If the player entered the boss room for the first time and didn't know about it, wouldn't they write us a bad review?"

"I will update online immediately."

The fox took out a small notebook from behind, and took notes in the notebook with a pen in his mouth.

"There is another question. How could there be a dragon in the castle you gave me? Isn't it harming me to put a sixth-level monster next to me?"

"According to the database records, this monster moved here automatically after the plot deduction."

A video appeared in front of Wang Yue, playing at sixteen times fast speed, showing that the blue dragon was driven from the north of the mainland, traveled through the sea storm to the ancient castle, and finally took this place as his own.

"I am the owner of the castle, you help me drive her away now, I just need a bed to sleep in."

"Sorry, I don't have permission to modify test account data directly."

Wang Yue looked at the fox's big innocent eyes, and the two stared at each other for a while.

"I just scanned the task library, and completing the specified tasks can gain the favor of the blue dragon, and when the favorability reaches 60, you can accept it as a guardian."

Hearing this, Wang Yue frowned.

Love strategy games are the field he is least good at. He has lived for so long without even having a girlfriend, so how could he be able to tease a dragon.

"What's the matter with the favorability system? I didn't put this kind of thing in the game."

"Due to the popularity of Two-dimensional games in recent years, the favorability system is a function I borrowed from it."

Wang Yue thought about it, it took several months for ordinary players to upgrade to level 60, and due to the experience penalty, it might take him a year to defeat the blue dragon with his strength.

"If I can really attack her, there will be guards in the castle."

After weighing the pros and cons, he finally figured out that "eating soft food" is the future he wants to seize, so he immediately asked the system how to increase the other party's favorability.

"Go to the next room and find the key NPC Sith, it will guide you to uncover the secrets of the castle."

At the same time as the system prompted Wang Yue, an electronic sound rang in his ears.

[Resurrection countdown: 10, 9, 8...]

……

The countdown ended, and with a flash of white light, Wang Yue returned to the game world.

But his condition at this time is not very good, his expression is in a trance, his head is buzzing, and his mental power in the upper left corner of the interface is only 10%.

[Resurrection Punishment: Forced resurrection makes you emotionally unstable]

[Effect: Weakness]

[Duration: Permanent]

"The side effects of forced resurrection...the effect is too strong..."

The skull icon that appears in the lower right corner of the interface reminds Wang Yue that he is now under the curse of compulsory resurrection punishment.

Ordinary players need time to wait for resurrection after death. If they are forced to resurrect in situ, they will enter a weak state.

Now that the curse has begun to affect Wang Yue's spirit, he must adjust his state immediately.

"I think about how to increase mental strength..."

If it is an ordinary player, you only need to wait in place, and your mental power will automatically recover if you don't do anything.

But Wang Yue couldn't bear it anymore, he felt as if a piece of ice had been placed in his heart, a sign of depression.

"Xiao Nuo, tell me how to restore my mental strength."

There are skills and props in the game that can restore mental power, but Wang Yue at level 1 has nothing, so he can only find unconventional means to help himself.

"Mobilizing positive emotions can instantly increase mental strength."

Hearing the system prompt, he began to recall some funny movie scenes.

There are many funny movie scenes, the first thing Wang Yue thinks of is the dance between the disguised geek and the beautiful woman.

"Sure enough, the charm of an old man will never go out of style."

The game system did not lie to him. Relying on this memory, his mental strength accelerated to 50%, and [Resurrection Punishment] also disappeared at the same time.

"Saved. Thank you, Xiao Nuo."

Relieved, he began to check his belongings.

The only weapon [Bone Spur] is still in his waist. Looking through the backpack, all the rare props [Fifth-Rank Bone Fragments] that he bought with his life are not missing.

"Luckily among misfortunes, death has a chance to explode equipment and props."

After checking all the items, it's time to continue exploring the unfamiliar map.

Wang Yue stood in the newborn position, the doors on the left and right sides were closed tightly, as if everything had returned to zero and started all over again.

"The resurrection punishment is too painful, you must remind me next time there is danger."

He held his rapier forward, ready to look at the two rooms at the other end of the corridor.

"Please proceed with caution."

The corridor is very spacious, the atmosphere is deserted, and the sound of footsteps on the ground is very obvious.

Wang Yue walked slowly like a catwalk, and the name of the castle was always displayed on the interface. Even when he got close to the stairs, he found that there was still no movement around him.

"Am I careful enough?"

After countless games with the air, Wang Yue successfully came to the third room, and he looked at the wooden door with apprehension.

【Bone Burial: The birthplace of the power of darkness, you should try this place】

"Since you have been reminded like this, why should I not go in?"

Wang Yue pushed open the door, and the room was pitch black, even the light from the corridor couldn't shine in.

Just when he was hesitating, a pair of skeleton hands appeared from the shadows.The skeleton hand pushed Wang Yue's back hard, sending him into the [Bone Burial Ground].

……

"Scared me to death, what pushed me?"

"The hidden monster in the stairs, the strange shadow."

After being pushed into the bone burial ground, Wang Yue fell into a pile of bone fragments.

When he stood up, he found a green light above his head, the map was surrounded by high mountains, and the only exit was surrounded by fog.

"If there is no emergency battle triggered, then this place is only in the wild."

The name of the new map is the bone burial ground, and the ground is full of [primary bone fragments] he saw in the storage room.In addition to the garbage materials everywhere, monsters can be vaguely seen in the bone pile.

"There is nothing to be afraid of, there are too many places where you can operate in the wild."

After regaining her strength, Wang Yue explored forward, and a prompt box of monsters appeared on the interface.

【Skeleton Claw: A More Complete Monster Than Skeleton Finger】

【Level: 3】

[Skeleton Finger] is just two bones put together, but [Skeleton Claw] is connected by five fingers.

The bones are thick, half the size of a person, and it looks very dangerous from the outside.

"There is a gap of two levels, but it's not a big problem."

Although the target looks terrifying, it is just an ordinary monster. As long as you look for the weak point, you will definitely not have any accidents if you fight steadily.

The claws are famous red monsters, Wang Yue knew that she had to be careful about attracting monsters, if she attracted two, she would be caught between two sides of the monster.

"Let my younger brother do the job of attracting monsters, the undead call."

The third cast was more familiar, and he once again drained his mana to summon a skeleton.

"See that enemy who broke away from the organization? Bring it to me."

Wang Yue pointed to a lone paw in the distance, and the skeleton cannon fodder who obeyed the order immediately walked towards the opponent.

When its footsteps stepped into the 30-meter warning line, [Skull Claw] turned around immediately, and its five nimble fingers moved alternately on the ground, and soon bumped into Wang Yue's [Elementary Skeleton].

[The summoned object takes damage: 2]

【Your summoned object has died】

Just one blow crushed the skeleton he had just summoned, the claws of the lost target aimed at the skeleton's owner, and began to move towards Wang Yue.

"Poor little skull, I will avenge you."

The little skull only attracted one monster and successfully completed its mission.

Instead of retreating, Wang Yue advanced, expending her energy and began to sprint, and with a faster speed, she circled behind the monster from the side.

"I also remember your weakness very well."

After getting close to the monster, he raised his weapon and inserted the rapier into the junction of the five fingers, which was the position of the palm.

[Damage caused: 6 (weakness)]

This attack directly reduced the claw's health by one-fifth, but Wang Yue had to save energy, this attack had already used up half of his energy bar.

"It's easy, then I'll give it a try."

The monster was enraged, but before its body turned around, a finger had already been freed from its claws, and the bony finger was ejected towards the rear.

Wang Yue put the blade of the rapier on her chest, trying to block the attack of her fingers.

[Damage received: 2 (block)]

"Such a thin sword has passed the block judgment. If I have a shield, I can definitely block all the damage."

There are many ways to deal with attacks, such as dodging, blocking, parrying, resisting, and absorbing. As long as the conditions are met and the judgment is passed, the damage can be reduced, or even the attack can be completely neutralized.

The injury this time only made Wang Yue feel chest tightness, and his combat power was not affected. He picked up the bone spur and continued to attack.

"I poke, I poke again."

After two consecutive strikes, [Skull Claw] turned around and aimed five fingers at Wang Yue.

Losing the weak point attack position, the frontal attack will no longer enjoy double damage, he can only retreat temporarily, relying on the speed advantage to open the distance.

"It seems that my physical strength is not enough, I have to take a risk and give it a try."

There are still too many restrictions at level 1, and there is a lack of health and stamina.

Wang Yue had already started panting when she was avoiding the battle. He knew that if he wasted any more time, his body would become stiff.

There is a space between the fingers, and the space between the fingers is wider when the paw moves.

[Warning: bone finger ejection]

"Pick me up with the best of my life, the shovel."

Wang Yue sprinted with all her strength, and suddenly knelt down facing the tense fingers.Relying on the inertia of his forward movement, while pressing the smooth bone fragments with his knees, his whole body slid on the ground, brushing past the attack.

[Damage received: 0 (dodge)]

"That's the beauty of manipulation."

Relying on 90.00% nine operations and one percent luck, he successfully dodged the attack and slipped under the paw.

Watching the target suddenly disappear in front of his eyes, even the monsters have come to a standstill.

[Damage caused: 6 (weakness)]

"Crack, click."

The sound of two rapiers being inserted came from under the claw, and the five fingers trembled and separated, falling to the ground and breaking into five bone fragments.

[Experience gained: 1]

"Huh, I'm exhausted."

At this time, he no longer cared about the reduction of experience, but was satisfied with killing the monster.

While sitting and resting, Wang Yue stretched out her hand to dig around the pile of monster corpses.

"No.1 said that the battle is so exciting, much better than playing with a computer."

Compared with [Skeleton Finger], which relies on mechanism to bully, [Skull Claw] is challenging but not too strong.

"For the sake of me being the creator, give me an armor so I can be tough. Fighting monsters like this is really tiring."

Perhaps it was Wang Yue's prayer that moved the game world, and he really found the equipment in a pile of broken bones.

[Old buttons: iron buttons connected together, although rusty but barely usable]

[Effect: Defense +2]

"Finally, I have armor, and I no longer have to work hard to block attacks."

He tied the button around his waist as a belt, and continued to wait for his physical strength to fully recover.

"The drop probability of ordinary quality equipment is only 10%. It seems that my luck is not bad."

After waiting for her physical strength to fully recover, Wang Yue held the bone spur and prepared to continue clearing the monsters.

He looked around, and the remaining [Skeleton Claws] were all very close, and they all gathered in the center of the [Bone Burial Ground].

"The mana has not been fully restored, so you cannot summon cannon fodder to pull monsters."

It was too dangerous to approach the monster himself, and he had to find another way.

"This prop should be able to be thrown out."

Wang Yue picked up the bone fragments on the ground and threw them casually. The bone fragments really flew quite far.

So he chose a moderately sized bone fragment and smashed it at the target, causing 1 point of damage when it hit the target.

"No matter how skilled you are, you will still be afraid of bone fragments."

There are special throwing weapons in the game, but compared to serious weapons, no matter how rare the props are thrown, they only have 1 point of damage.

The injured [Skeleton Claw] attacked Wang Yue alone, and Wang Yue also retreated immediately, creating more space for the battlefield.

"If I have enough physical strength, I can keep running and throwing it, and let the monster know what torture is."

But with the armor, Wang Yue no longer needs to work so hard, he only needs one-on-one safe space now.

Seeing that other monsters were no longer in sight, Wang Yue stopped and waited for the monsters to approach.

"My eyes have seen too much."

The battle just now made Wang Yue familiar with fighting with a rapier, and at the same time let him see clearly the order of the opponent's attacks.

When facing the enemy head-on, [Skeleton Claw] will give priority to using [Bone Finger Ejection]. This blow is powerful, but it is easy to dodge.

When the player appears in other directions, it will choose to hit with its fingers, which is easy to hit but only deals normal damage.

The basic attack power of a level 3 monster is 3 points, including her own defense power, Wang Yue only needs to avoid the front [bone finger ejection], and then forcefully eat the opponent's 1 point of normal damage.

"Come on, fight like a real man."

As Wang Yue observed, the monster facing the enemy suddenly stopped, and its fingers began to bend to accumulate power.

[Warning: bone finger ejection]

It's a pity that Wang Yue turned around and ran back, completely forgetting what the real man said.

"Too young, too innocent, this is the limitation of AI."

After dodging the first blow, Wang Yue took advantage of her speed again to go around to the side and slip under the monster's body.

[Damage caused: 6 (weakness)]

The vigilant paws started to fight back, the five fingers moved closer to the palm, and the fingers tapped Wang Yue under him alternately.

[Damage received: 1]

The tapping of the fingers was still powerful. To Wang Yue, who had only 10 health points, every blow was like a heavy punch, but he held back.

"The degree of scratching, Master Claw, your technique is not good enough."

Four consecutive "clicks" sounded from under the monster, and it was Wang Yue who aimed at the weak point and stabbed four swords.

These four swords made him very satisfied, because each of his swords accurately hit the monster's weak point, and he was not knocked out of the way at all.

After four sword strikes, the monster's blood bar disappeared, and its body turned into bone fragments and fell on Wang Yue.

[Rapier proficiency improvement]

[Current proficiency level: 2]

Weapon proficiency is specially designed for melee occupations. Frequent use of weapons can increase the corresponding proficiency level. After reaching some proficiency levels, the corresponding weapon skills will be unlocked.

The improvement of the proficiency level is a probabilistic event, which is related to the player's fighting style and the monsters to be fought. It is a relatively complicated identification system for non-chief European emperors.

"It seems that I have a talent for fencing."

The experience gained by Wang Yue is still 1 point that she can't bear to look at directly. There is no special spoils this time, and the only gain is the improvement of proficiency level.

"Hey, there are still ninety monsters to be upgraded. When will it be the end?"

Now the level of weapon proficiency has risen, but her own level is still at level 1, which makes Wang Yue feel sad.

"It would be great if there were kind NPCs, give me a task and help me upgrade to level 2."

He continued to sit on the ground waiting for his physical strength to recover, while calculating the upgrade efficiency.

Killing a monster requires him to stab at least 5 swords. It takes half a minute to attract monsters and move, plus 1 minute to rest, and at least 2 minutes to solve a [Skeleton Claw].

"It's not an option to fight like this. We can't really slaughter 90 monsters here."

Wang Yue looked at the only fog that looked like an exit. There should be an NPC that the system asked him to find, but there might also be stronger monsters appearing.

In the bone burial ground, there are only 5 [Skeleton Claws] left.

"It's so hard to beat level 3 monsters. If I encounter higher-level monsters, I definitely have nothing to do."

Now his only improvement is weapon proficiency, Wang Yue wields the rapier, carefully feeling the difference of proficiency level 2.

He slashed and stabbed twice in the air, except that using the bone spur no longer felt unfamiliar, he didn't feel that he had become stronger.

Wang Yue continued to pull monsters by throwing bone pieces, rested when she was tired, and continued to work when she was full of energy.

"Am I really a necromancer? The kind that goes forward with the skeleton army?"

After cleaning up all the [Skeleton Claws], Wang Yue sat on the pile of bones and stuck the bone spurs beside her.

[Rapier proficiency improvement]

[Current proficiency level: 3]

The weapon proficiency level is Wang Yue's only gain. Now he can hold the hilt of the sword firmly in any posture and stab it hard.

"Huh...huh..."

Wang Yue was panting, his voice was the only one in the bone burial ground, and purple mist filled the dim surroundings.

There is a green light in the center of the venue, and this light is hung in the air. Above the light is a faint purple that cannot see the border.

"It's no wonder that some people like to fight. It's so exciting to feel so excited."

Sitting on a high pile of bones, Wang Yue has discovered the joy of fighting.

He learns in combat, paying attention to his footing, keeping his eyesight sharp, and trying to catch him off guard.

"Don't wait for the monsters to refresh, it's time to explore other places."

Wang Yue noticed that her physical strength bar could not be fully recovered, and she felt hungry in her stomach.

"Hunger? Am I hungry from playing?"

"Please absorb energy in time."

Not only was his stomach growling, but even the system gave a reminder.

"How can there be food in a pile of broken bones?"

The center of the arena had been cleared by Wang Yue, so he could only jump off the pile of bones and head towards the unknown purple mist.

　I need some two-character player names. If you think the story is good, you can leave your name, thank you~
