A Delicious and Flammable Backlands Tour

"It should be safer to use the life crystal." Jiang Haifeng nodded, "In this way, we will not feel guilty about selling Panda when we encounter an enemy we cannot defeat."

"Damn." Panda raised his middle finger at the two of them.

As a soldier, he had the lowest defense among the three, and he was betrayed by his teammates. He felt bitter.

Xia Zhi picked up the manuscript, smashed all the heart-shaped crystals, and picked up four life crystals.

"Well then, give Panda two, seabird one, I'll take one, it's okay."

"I have no objection." Jiang Haifeng shrugged.If necessary, it is not impossible to give all the heart-shaped crystals to the fighters.

"You..." Panda looked at the two life crystals in his hand, wanted to say something, but couldn't.

"Ah, by the way, Panda, I guess it's the place where fluorescent mushrooms go down. There are many traps there, so it's okay for you to explore the way?" Xia Zhi said casually.

"Well, that's right, how much money can be used to do so many things." Jiang Haifeng nodded, with a look of deep approval.

A heart crystal was thrown to the summer solstice.

"Get out! Let Master Xia go down to explore the way!" It seems that he will not go to explore the way even if he is killed.

Xia Zhi caught the crystal and shook his head.

"Oh, a professional soldier is so cowardly."

All three of them used a life crystal, which increased their maximum health by 20 points, and now their maximum health is 220 points.

Xia Zhi didn't mean to use the second life crystal, but used it and four iron chains to make a heart-shaped lantern.Their expeditions will be much safer with the recovery buffs provided by the fire and heart lanterns.

The gold box didn't give any good things this time, it was just a recovery sash for the fast prefix.In the end, the recovery belt was assigned to Panda by Xia Zhi, allowing him to achieve a 25% movement speed bonus.

After dividing the spoils, they rested in the room for a while, and Panda checked the time.

It was almost noon now.

"Let's go have a meal. I'm starving to death after fighting so many monsters." Panda looked at Jiang Haifeng.

"Seabird, why don't you invite us out for dinner?"

"Okay." Young Master Jiang readily agreed. "Xia Zhi, what do you think?"

"I'm fine with that, but it's best not to go downtown."

"Why?" Panda looked at him strangely.Is this guy afraid of running into the girl before?

"I don't want to be hacking zombies and slimes in public, waving into the air, and looking like an idiot."

"...makes sense."

------------

Xia Zhi and the others finally chose a tavern near the campus, and Young Master Jiang asked for a private room.

Don't get me wrong, they don't want to drink, but because other small restaurants basically don't close their doors, and zombies will definitely disturb other people when they appear.

After the dishes were served, they first raised their drinks and bumped into each other.

"Phew, I can feel at ease at last." Panda drank the drink in his cup, "Phew - sure enough, staying in the cave too much will really kill people."

"Actually, we have almost all the equipment now, so there's no need to keep drilling down." Xia Zhi explained, "We can't deal with the enemies that go further down."

Jiang Haifeng understood Xia Zhi's words.

"You mean... we have time now, so we should look elsewhere?"

"Well, in fact, it's more suitable for me to run around in the basements of various cities to open treasure chests." Xia Zhi joked, "With the help of evil eyes to investigate, my efficiency must be the fastest."

"But I didn't expect you to be bumped into by other players for the first time that night."

Jiang Haifeng helped him finish the second half of the sentence, which aroused Xia Zhi's dissatisfaction.

"Can you stop which pot and lift which pot? When I saw her holding the diamond staff, I was stunned. I can't fight that one."

"Are you still cowardly?"

"It's hard to say. If I can get close to her, I can win. Who knows if she has pets."

Today's pets have shown all sorts of strange abilities.In the future, even if someone throws a pet guinea pig and shouts "Go Pikachu, use a hundred thousand volts", he probably won't be surprised.

"Xia Zhi, I think we need to get in touch with that female player." Jiang Haifeng put on a serious look.

"Are you also interested in that girl?!" Xia Zhi looked at Jiang Haifeng in shock.

Why did you betray the revolution when you agreed to be a blonde? !

"It's not what you think! There are only three players on our side now, right?"

"Correct."

"We need to understand the situation of other players. At least what level they are, we need to know. I don't need to say more about the consequences of behind closed doors."

Xia Zhi thought about it, and the current situation is indeed like this.They don't know anything about other players.

"Alright, if we meet in the future, let me try to negotiate."

At this time, Panda thought of a question.

"Should we use the Internet? Generally speaking, when this kind of thing happens, there will be organizations like communication groups in private."

"It's useless." Jiang Haifeng pointed to the Android robot on his shoulder, "Everyone is good at hiding themselves, and now only two or three kittens come out."

"It's because I'm afraid of being caught and sliced." Xia Zhi couldn't do anything about this situation, "It's normal, we are also very cautious now, basically we won't be found out."

"Master, don't worry! Whoever has a plan that is not good for you, I can see right away." Xieyan said confidently while being held in his arms.

"Thank you." Xia Zhi touched it and continued, "I guess the situation will improve a lot after the blood moon."

"Like a major version update?" Panda complained. "Don't be the same as Queen Roshan, just turn on the hard mode."

"It's about the same. In fact, the increase in difficulty is still secondary. To lure the monster to the old place, how to fight. But... If after the blood moon, everyone can see the monster, what should the player do?"

Panda realized something was wrong.

"Do we need to find someone to hug us, otherwise we will definitely be regarded as soft persimmons."

"For sure." Jiang Haifeng squinted his eyes, "If players conflict with ordinary people, it will be a lot of fun. Xia Zhi thinks very far, and has taken this aspect into consideration."

"There should be little possibility of conflict. Without players, monsters cannot be killed. What I worry about is that other players will be eyeing this place."

When there are too many people coming, even a good man can't hold back a pack of wolves.

NO.23 I want to become a Pokémon master!

After that, the three of them deliberately did not talk about the previous events, and the atmosphere of the lunch became lively again.

Interestingly, after getting along with each other these days, their pets became a lot more familiar.While Xia Zhi and the others were chatting, Xieyan, the android robot, and the ghost in a bottle also started to move by themselves.

Because Xia Zhi showed her favor for the genie in the bottle before, Xieyan especially likes to bully the genie in the bottle.It entangles the genie in the bottle with its invisible tentacles, throwing it around in the air.For some reason, the spirit body of the elf in the bottle cannot escape the shackles of the evil eye.

Except for Xia Zhi's perspective, which can see Xieyan's small movements, Panda and Jiang Haifeng only saw the genie in the bottle spinning in the air inexplicably...

The Android robot is very worry-free. It found a socket by itself and started stealing electricity from the restaurant.

Xia Zhi and the others didn't have the time to take care of the pets' interactions.

At exactly one o'clock, there was an extra email in their window.

"Huh? Official mail?"

The summer solstice clicked on it, and it turned out to be a notification that they had applied a patch.

------------

Dear players, do you already have your favorite pet?If not, please meet your loyal partner as soon as possible!

If you keep leaving them alone, not only will they alienate you, but their abilities will not be able to evolve.Please treat your partners well!

In order to make it easier for players to cultivate pets, the pet interface will be opened for players to view and use starting today.

From now on, all items for summoning pets become disposable items. Players who already have pets can summon pets freely without using summoning items.At the same time, for players who already have pets, their summoned items will be destroyed.As compensation, additionally increases the growth progress of its pet to the next stage.

In addition, I would like to remind players that the strength of pets has nothing to do with their rarity. If they are properly cultivated, rabbits can also be your good helpers.

------------

"Well, there really are." Xia Zhi saw that there was an extra "pet" in the blank space under the "Role" column.

He clicked on it to look at the attributes of the evil eye.

----------

(The strengthening conditions have been met, do you want to strengthen it to the next stage?)

----------

"Master, I feel that I can strengthen it!" Xieyan threw the elf in the bottle aside, and floated in front of Xia Zhi to look at him.

"Is it okay to strengthen it now?" Xia Zhi asked for its opinion.

"No problem at all!" Xieyan floated over his head excitedly.

So the summer solstice points to the confirmation of strengthening.

I saw colorful brilliance emerging from Xieyan, and its eyes seemed to be deeper.

----------

Strengthening is complete.Your evil eye is currently in stage [-] (growth)!

Unlocked new skills.

3. Coercion

When used on monsters, increase the target's attack interval (2 seconds), reduce the target's attack and defense (5 points).When used on a single hostile player, it will automatically become "Magic Eye of Coercion". When the above effects are caused, it will additionally require more ammunition (2 rounds) or mana (2 points) to attack.

----------

"It's not bad, touch it." Xia Zhi felt that this skill was quite practical.Because the skills of pets do not have CD and consumption...

"Well, the master didn't see my appearance, has there been any change?"

"The diameter is ten centimeters larger—you've gained weight." Xia Zhi poked it, and it felt surprisingly good, which made people want to stop.

"It's not fat, it's growing up!"

However, it only changed from the size of a football to the size of a basketball.

Xia Zhi checked the pet space, tried to take the evil eye back, and then released it again.

"This function is good, save the critical moment, I still need to find suspicious tentacles."

"Master, please consider my feelings!" Xieyan protested, but it was caught by Xia Zhi again.The resistance was thus suppressed.

"Tsk tsk, it's still as violent as ever." Panda looked at the interaction between Xia Zhi and Xieyan, and felt that he couldn't learn it.

He looks at his pet.
