Time in the game flies by quickly, and night is about to pass.
The entire giant whale skull is covered with green pulp. Da Fei, engrossed in the fight, can no longer remember how many tentacles he has lured and killed. When Da Fei cautiously peers out of the skull again, the familiar gust of wind doesn't strike his face! Killed, all killed?
He sneakily looked inside, and saw the same green pulp all over the sand outside, with more than a dozen tentacles, battered and ragged, wriggling and bubbling on the ground. Success! Indeed, success! Bro has eliminated all its minions! Now, an anemone without tentacles is like a toothless tiger; if I still can't win against that, it means I'm truly doomed!
Da Fei steps out of the skull, and feeling Da Fei's approach, the tentacles on the ground begin to twist in struggle.
Heh heh, no need to struggle, bro will end your pain! Standing at a distance, Da Fei shot them one by one, nailing all the tentacles to the ground. What's left must be the main body in the ground, right? Nothing more to say, Da Fei thrusts his spear into the sand, -2! And with a splat, a splash of green pulp!
No reaction? Filled with excitement, Da Fei stabs again, -2!
Can't fight back, huh? Haha! Wahahahaha! That's exactly what I wanted! Da Fei's ecstatic laughter resonates high and far!
Bro says, I'm a pro! How could there be monsters in Newbie Village that a newbie can't beat? Soloing a BOSS! From ancient times to now, this has been the foundation for professionals to get rich and pave their way to success! It's the cornerstone of continuously marching from one victory to another! This is a good start, half the battle to a successful life!
Da Fei, with the ferocity of a dragon and the speed of the rain, continued to thrust fiercely, fully enjoying this hard-earned victory!
The east begins to lighten up, the sound of the waves roar, the tide is rising!
And Da Fei strikes the final blow! A ray of golden light descends from the sky!
——System Prompt: You have killed the Demonized Poisonous Anemone King! You gained 6000 experience points! You found spoils of war: Heart of Demonized Poisonous Anemone King! Demonized Poisonous Anemone King Seed!
——System Prompt: Congratulations! You have leveled up to Level 5! Your Life Value +2, you gained 1 strategic attribute point, you gained 1 skill point, your Command Power +1, and your Basic Damage +1.
——System Prompt: You've collected partial information about the Demonized Poisonous Anemone King, further perfecting the info card.
——System Prompt: You have singlehandedly killed a leader-level monster higher level than yourself, earning the achievement "Lonely Brave Warrior," awarding +10 Life Value points and +1 to personal basic damage. The next achievement "Lonely Brave Warrior 10 Consecutive Victories" requires you to singlehandedly kill 10 leader-level monsters higher level than yourself without any troops.
...
Looking at this long list of expected system information, Da Fei laughs again! These are the rightful rewards for soloing a BOSS! What bro urgently needs is more damage, the achievement awarded me one point of damage, and reaching level 5 added another point, it's truly a double blessing!
Currently, Da Fei's attributes are:
Level 5, Attack: 4, Defense: 3 (personal defense 3), Life Value: 28, Damage: 3－5, Attack Speed: 10, Move Speed: 10, Command Power: 4, Reputation: 0, tactical position: 1, Stamina: 100.
Skills: Basic Navigation Skill, Intermediate Reconnaissance Skill (Sub-skill Intelligence Collection), 1 unallocated skill point.
Wahahaha! This is incomparable to the weakling gunner from the day before yesterday, who just set sail with 1-3 damage and 10 life points! But on second thought, gunners are actually not weak; at least among the first level troops with commonly 5, 6, 7 life points, those 10 life points are quite impressive!
But it's not over yet! There are also the spoils of war from killing the BOSS!
——Heart of Demonized Poisonous Anemone King: Weapon Enchantment. Adds 1 point of Paralysis Poison Damage to the weapon.
——Demonized Poisonous Anemone King Seed: Soldier Source Base. Capable of breeding a new type of troop, the Demonized Poisonous Anemone, in specific environments. A small chance to breed a Demonized Poisonous Anemone King. Building condition: Unknown.
Da Fei is startled! A Soldier Source Base for breeding new types of troops! That's what the so-called troop-building is!
A Soldier Source Base is usually a blueprint; for example, once a player gets the Gunman Instructor blueprint, they can apply to build it in a Kingdom's Main City or a small town. With 10 units of wood and 10 units of stone resources plus 1000 Gold Coins for construction, the player can recruit gunners at a low cost from their own base, rather than hiring them at a high price from the Kingdom's NPC barracks.
Of course, if you want to save even more, players can also hire a Gunman Instructor, and so on. A Soldier Source Base like this seed is quite a rare and peculiar kind.
Of course, Soldier Source Bases are a Lord Player's favorite item, so the best way to deal with it is to sell it! During public testing, a quirky Dwarf Instructor with a slingshot was valued at 100,000 US Dollars! That's hundreds of thousands of RMB! Not to mention that plant monsters are cunning and treacherous; selling for one million should be no problem, right? However, the unknown building condition of this Soldier Source Base does affect its selling price.
Never mind! A troop base is still a troop base. If it's not sold for a million, a hundred thousand should be doable; if not, then fifty thousand! Wahahaha, I've struck it rich! Bro has made it! I knew it, becoming a professional player was the right move! I knew all those years of not winning the lottery, my luck was bound to explode one day! When the market picks up, I'll sell it!
Suddenly, Da Fei spots several barrels buried in the sand. What are these? Da Fei opens one.
——System Prompt: You have acquired 3 units of Refined Crystal Sulfur!
Da Fei is startled! It's a top-grade rare strategic resource! It's only available in the New World; the Old World only has ordinary sulfur, 1 unit of Refined Crystal Sulfur = 10 units of ordinary sulfur. Damn, I've hit the jackpot again!
What does 1 unit mean? 1 unit = 100 pieces. What is a piece?
Troops all consume resources by eating and drinking. Ordinary soldiers consume 1 piece of water and food per day, advanced troops like Angels consume 1 piece of gems and crystal per day. A piece is the basic daily consumption standard.
```
And 1 unit = 100 pieces. Since this game involves territorial management and trading, doing bulk transactions with NPCs is a must, and nothing less than 100 pieces is for sale. Just like how 100 shares equal 1 lot in stock trading, all trades in the game are based on "units," commonly abbreviated as "unit." Players can carry a maximum of 10 units of resources on them, and any excess must be transported using logistic vehicles. Once defeated, the logistic vehicles will fall into the hands of the enemy.
Da Fei continues to open barrels.
——System Prompt: You've obtained 2 units of Mithril!
Mithril! The Mithril recorded in the logbook! These must indeed be things that fell off the ship.
——System Prompt: You've obtained 2 units of Concentrated Mercury!
Another resource from the New World! It seems that all these came from off the ship, surely they are samples gathered back by the expedition team from the New World, right? But why would the Demonized Poisonous Anemone King grow next to these barrels? Acting as a wild creature guarding the resources? No matter, I'll take them back and sell them for the first batch of startup capital! Mwahaha.
The distant rumble of the waves reminded Da Fei - that's right, it's time to withdraw the troops and head back to the city.
Da Fei swims back to the reef and pulls out the last spoils of war - a green, glowing gemstone-like Heart of Demonized Poisonous Anemone King.
What exactly is the effect of the Paralysis Poison? It seems that there's no explanation in the official materials.
Enchantment with a poisonous weapon is common, and any toxin is definitely accompanied by negative states like reduced attack, reduced defense, or reduced damage. Given the limited survival of plant monsters, if it was just an ordinary toxic effect, there would be no value in them continuing to exist, they'd be eliminated by natural selection right away! This Paralysis Poison must be the key to this species' survival, it has to be amazing! Right, it seems the information on the Anemone King is updated a bit, let's see what it is.
Da Fei opens the information card:
——Demonized Poisonous Anemone King:
Creature Type: Large Leader Plant
Attack: ?
Defense: 4
Damage: ?
Life: 600
Attack Speed: 1, very very slow.
Move Speed: 0
Special Skill: Ambush, Bounce Attack, ?.
Item Drop: Heart of Demonized Poisonous Anemone King (100% drop rate). Demonized Poisonous Anemone King Seed (3% drop rate, guaranteed on first kill)
Experience: 6000
The information has indeed improved a lot! 600 Life! Worthy of a BOSS, it could withstand three little Angels! This info can definitely fetch a good price! There's another special skill not shown, given the item drops, it must be related to that Paralysis Poison, after all, bro hasn't been hit, so there's no way to find out the Attack attribute of the opponent.
Nothing much to say, a 1-point Damage enchantment, no matter how peculiar, can't sell for much, I'll use it for myself!
——System Prompt: Do you want to use the Weapon Enchantment "Heart of Demonized Poisonous Anemone King" on your own Wooden Spear?
Sigh, a Wooden Spear, it feels like a waste for this enchantment. But bro has no other weapons to switch to. I'm certain that even if one could pick up swords or arrows in the shipwreck, one would definitely not find a spear; I've never heard of anyone going to sea to fight with a spear.
——Confirmed!
With a flash of green ice-like light, it dissipates into the Wooden Spear, dying the whole spear with a faint green color.
——System Prompt: You've successfully enchanted your weapon with the Heart of Demonized Poisonous Anemone King, your weapon gains 1 point of Paralysis Poison Damage, and is renamed "Poisonous Paralysis Wooden Spear."
Yay! It even got a name! Fine, when I have money later on, I'll take it to the city's smithy and refine it a few times to see. I'll set it up as the family heirloom to commemorate my fortune-making, haha!
Speaking of the shipwreck, I wonder what that guy is up to? Da Fei takes out a telescope and can't help but laugh. Turns out this chap is still Level 5, I've killed the BOSS and this guy is still killing skeletons? What a waste of such a great account!
Alright, you keep killing skeletons, bro. After killing the BOSS, I've got 6000 experience in hand, with only half a bar away from Level 6. I'll come back tonight after reaching Level 6 and learning Stealth, and we'll have a slow talk, hmph.
Now, it's about time to eat. Three days in the game equals half a day in reality, after eating, it'll be just about nightfall in the game.
