Traveling through the game world, starting out as a third-rate villain
Chapter 31 Verdant Forest
Boom!
The moment the whirlpool threw me out, my senses became a little empty, and at the same time, a stronger feeling of nausea came over me.
This may be because I went through two portals at the same time. One took us to the entrance of the dungeon, and the other took us directly into the depths of the dungeon. The two were connected, so there was no stop in the middle, but this also meant that the transmission time was longer and the repulsion was stronger.
"Ugh..." I clenched my teeth and tried hard to resist the urge to vomit.
"Oh? Not bad, you can hold it in for the first time." The man said, his voice made me regain some composure and reminded me that there were other people present. I turned to look at him, only to see him take out a cigar from his pocket and light it up, with a smug smile on his face.
"Tsk!" I secretly smacked my lips and glared at him. Was this guy doing it unintentionally or on purpose? The smoke alone was enough to make my lungs ache.
I can't help but wonder, these people smoke this stuff every day, isn't their health important?
But in the end, I have no right to criticize others... After all, I am putting my body on the brink of life and death, and everyone has their own reasons.
"What? Wondering how I knew it was your first time?" He misunderstood my look. "I've seen too many people like you, kid. I've been in this business for I don't know how long." He said it in a boastful tone, but it only made me more irritated.
"No one wants to hear how long you've been working here. Just by looking at your habits, I can tell you've been working here for at least 15 years." I complained to myself and stood up.
"Ah... You are such a weirdo. Never mind. I'll leave first. You should have read the rules... You can stay here for a maximum of ten days. If you don't leave after ten days, we will assume that you are in danger and send a rescue team. But in this case, your money will be deducted, so it's up to you to decide."
He said, waving his hand. I nodded and started to pack my gear.
"Good luck to you." After saying the last sentence, he turned and left, walking towards the dungeon entrance, leaving me here alone.
So I stood there and watched him leave.
"ha……"
I took off my mask and took a deep breath of fresh air to calm my mind. The air was filled with the fresh scent of the forest, which was refreshing.
The dungeon environment is vast and full of life, completely different from the artificial environment of the academy. It exudes a wild atmosphere. Tall trees hold up a green canopy in the air, and the sun shines through the gaps between the branches and leaves, casting mottled light and shadows. The ears are filled with the pleasant melody of birdsong and the rustling sound of leaves in the breeze.
But I knew very well that all this was just an illusion. Because in this breeze, my sharp eyes had already detected traces of fighting. There was even a faint smell of blood in the air, indicating that a battle had taken place here recently.
This means that even the entrance to the dungeon is not safe. However, I haven't sensed any monsters yet.
I took a step forward, and the ground seemed to pulsate faintly, and I could feel a magical force flowing through the area. It was a very subtle feeling, reminding me that this was not an ordinary forest, but a place full of magic and danger.
The dungeon was shrouded in mystery, and the unpredictability of the environment kept me on my toes. Every step I took felt like I was stepping into the unknown, as if every tree and bush held a secret.
The source of all this is the monsters that inhabit this place. [Savage] has already provided me with relevant information about the monsters in the dungeon.
There are three main types of monsters living here.
"The Singer"
This is the first type of monster. These monsters look like monkeys, but they have evolved because they come from a different world full of magic.
'roar!'
Just as I was thinking, a shrill scream came from the forest.
This is one of their skills or characteristics. These monsters are marked as intermediate level 2, and although their physical attack capabilities are not strong, they are famous for their deafening screams and long-range sound attacks.
What's more, they usually move in groups.
As I was thinking about this, I felt the presence of some monsters around me.
'Rustle'
As the leaves swayed, a monster rushed towards me quickly.
It was a wolf-dog-like monster, but it also had some human features. It attacked me with its two paws raised high.
I could sense the murderous intent in its attack, but I was prepared for this very situation.
'clang!'
I raised my dagger and immediately blocked its claws.
"I was originally planning to use a bow or a gun, but let's just deal with it for now."
With this thought in mind, I injected magic power into the dagger. This time, the color of my magic power was white, different from the red last time. I don't know what caused the change in the color of the magic power, but I do feel that I am different from last time.
If red magic makes me more bloodthirsty, then white magic makes me more agile...
"Whoosh!"
The monster pounced on me again with a ferocious face, its sharp claws pointing directly at my chest.
"Whoosh!"
I quickly dodged the attack and counterattacked with a side kick, which staggered the monster for a moment, but it quickly regained its balance and pounced on me with a roar.
"Roar..." The monster's roar made me more focused.
Its movements told me that its body was a fast-attack type, a glass cannon-type monster.
Because of this, its body is less able to withstand attacks. In this kind of battle, the first person to be hit by an attack is usually the winner.
'Swish, swish, swish!'
Seizing the opportunity, I swung my dagger quickly and made three precise slashes at the monster, forcing it to retreat temporarily.
However, this was not enough to completely repel it. The monster growled again and prepared to launch a fierce attack again. But its legs were already injured, and my attack targeted its weak point - the tendon, which greatly reduced its speed and made its attack posture clumsy.
"This is where you end up."
As I whispered, I lowered my center of gravity and dodged its attack.
'prick!'
The dagger in my right hand pierced its body accurately. Blood gushed out from the wound and the monster staggered.
"Ouch..." It cried out in pain, but I showed no mercy.
'brush!'
With one final blow, I cut the monster's neck cleanly.
I wiped the blood off the dagger and put the monster's body into the space bracelet. This is just the beginning. Taking a deep breath, my eyes were as sharp as an eagle, ready for more battles. "It's time to make money."
I activated the skill [Sharp Eyes] and began to carefully observe the monsters around me, locating every trace of them.
"At the moment, it seems that there are only some kobolds around. It seems that the magic concentration in the entrance area of the dungeon is low, and there are no very powerful monsters."
The operating mechanism of the dungeon is actually very similar to the ecosystem in the wild. Anyone who has studied biology should know the concept of "species distribution" and the various factors that affect its distribution.
The magic concentration in the dungeon determines the strength of the monsters. The higher the magic concentration, the stronger the monsters will occupy there. This is just like the rule of capitalism, the strong will become stronger, and the weak can only survive.
Therefore, outside the dungeon, the magic concentration is lower, and naturally it attracts weaker monsters, such as kobolds.
The [Sharp Eyes] skill allowed me to sense the presence of several kobolds outside the dungeon. They were hiding in the shadows of trees and bushes, lurking, waiting for prey to come within their attack range.
But, I am the shadow.
There is a reason why I chose this forest as a dungeon, and that is because my characteristic [Shadow] is greatly enhanced in shadows or darkness. I found this in the training room, and when the light is strong during the day, this characteristic is weakened accordingly.
Therefore, staying out of the sun makes it easier for me to hide.
I moved cautiously through the forest, keeping my senses sharp, and when I saw three kobolds gathering up ahead, I decided to test the power of my new weapon, the pistol.
I took out the black pistol from the space bracelet on my wrist. The cold metal touch made me feel at ease. I aimed at the nearest kobold.
I took a deep breath and steadied my breathing. For a long-range fighter, the most important thing is to stay focused and always observe the changes in the surrounding environment.
After I adjusted my shooting posture, I injected magic power into the bullet. Although I couldn't see it, I could feel that the magic power had attached to the bullet, enhancing its power.
Then I pulled the trigger
'Bang!'
The sound of a gunshot broke the silence, and the bullet accurately hit the dog-headed man's chest. It let out a painful howl and staggered backward.
'Bang! Bang!'
Before the other two kobolds could react, I fired two quick shots, knocking them down one by one.
The sound of the gunshot echoed through the forest, and I knew it would surely attract the attention of any nearby monsters, but before they could find me, I had already blended into the shadows and disappeared without a trace.
"Roar... Roar..." As expected, more kobolds emerged from the shadows, their eyes filled with anger and hungry desire.
This means only one thing to me, more prey.
I took a deep breath, moved with the help of the shadows, repositioned myself, and climbed up a tree.
"I also need to train my ability to adapt to the environment." I thought to myself, a little dissatisfied with my speed in climbing the tree. But this matter can be solved later. After all, I can't handle all the problems at the same time.
[Sharp Eyes]
After the skill was activated, my sight became sharper. I quietly aimed at each kobold, automatically analyzing their weaknesses in my mind and sensing the best attack path.
'Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!'
Gunshots rang out one after another. Accurate shooting quickly eliminated the monsters in front of me, and soon I was surrounded by fallen kobolds.
Seven kobolds were sprawled on the ground, but I could sense more monsters approaching.
It's time for the real slaughter to begin...
