NOVEL NEXT Chapter 33 Getting Out Of The Comfort Zone
With the help of the system, building a novice village has become a not too difficult process.
Just like building blocks, players in Sakura Island No. 1 Newcomer Village soon completed building their own houses.
Many thoughtful players have begun to build walls and arrow towers at designated locations based on the terrain.
After all, the system prompts also say that the stronger the novice village is, the better. Maybe something unexpected will happen in seven days.
"Higashiki-kun, thank you so much. If it were just me, I wouldn't be able to make the arrow tower so quickly."
"You're welcome, this is what I should do, Murata-kun, this game is incredible."
"Indeed, now I believe that there is a god above us. Long live the Emperor!"
…
The players were talking a lot and while they were exploring together, Haruta Honno was silently doing his own thing in a corner of the Novice Village.
[Congratulations on building an arrow tower alone and gaining 1,000 invasion points]
[Congratulations on building a city wall (10m) alone and gaining 500 invasion points]
[Wood and stone have been consumed]
Haruta Honno wiped his sweat and breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, his body had been digitized, otherwise he would not have been able to complete so much work with his bloated body.
"In this way, plus building houses, I will have 2,500 invasion points. Let's see what the invasion points can buy first..."
With this thought, Haruta Honno opened the invasion point store. The products are divided into 10 levels. Currently, only those before level 10 are open. It is divided into equipment area, strengthening area and daily necessities area.
He first opened the equipment area, which contained only five types of products:
Militia standard armor optional gift box
(Normal)(500 invasion points)
Militia standard weapon optional gift box
(Normal)(500 invasion points)
Staff (normal) (500 invasion points) (needs to change profession to mage)
Robe (ordinary) (500 invasion points) (needs to change profession to mage)
Priest's Hammer (Normal) (500 invasion points) (requires changing to Priest)
The first two should be universal for physics professions, without any restrictions, and can be worn even without changing professions.
If the latter three do not change their profession, the staff will be equivalent to a wooden stick, the robe will be a piece of linen clothing, and as for the priest's hammer, it will be just a hammer, useless.
But Haruta Honno is not concerned about this. What he cares about is that there is magic in this world.
In other words, he has a chance to become the noble master in those novels who possesses pyrotechnics in his left hand and magnetic storm and lightning in his right hand!
How could this not make Haruta himself moved?
With excitement, he opened the store in the strengthening area, and sure enough, there were three career transfers inside, warrior, mage, and priest.
Use three different powers: fighting spirit, magic, and the power of faith to form their own skill systems.
To change jobs, you need to reach level 5 and spend 1,000 invasion points.
Level 5?
After building his house and arrow tower, he had already reached level 5.
Without saying a word, Haruta Honno immediately changed his profession to a mage, and then exchanged it for a staff.
His panel has also changed:
[Name: Haruta Honno]
[Level: Level 5]
[Occupation: Mage Apprentice (First Level) (0-10)]
【Life: 500】
[Magic: 200 (Spirit x20)]
【Strength: 5】
[Physique: 5 Armor: 50]
[Spirit: 10 Attack: 150 (Spirit x15)]
[Skills: Fireball, Illumination, Identification]
Obviously, each time the mage upgrades, his strength and physical attributes will increase by one point, while his spirit will directly increase by two points.
He looked at the career introduction and found that the attribute points acquired by a mage at each level will gradually increase after each advancement, which is very consistent with the fantasy world setting where the strong get stronger.
After he finished his research, he exchanged it for a militia-style leather armor and put it on.
The main reason is that his strength attribute can only wear leather armor at best. If he wears a robe, he will have an extra cleaning skill. In fact, the defensive effect is very poor.
Finally, Haruta Honno exchanged a piece of bread and a clay pot of water in the daily necessities store. After eating and drinking, he started his adventure in another world.
"I will definitely become the strongest mage! Then find a succubus wife, an elf wife, a princess from the human kingdom is also good...hehehehe."
Haruta Honno murmured happily, and with such beautiful thoughts, he stepped out of the Novice Village and entered the safe zone.
The temporary safety zone of Novice Village is a plain with occasional bushes and woodlands, and the terrain is very vast.
At least it can accommodate more than 5,000 players to explore at will, and it is not easy to bump into each other.
There are also many creatures in the safe zone, but they all look like ordinary beasts. Haruta Honda is not very interested. His magic power is limited and his skills should be used at critical moments.
After going around and around, we finally came to a raised hill before the sky gradually darkened.
This hillock is located between woodland, and there is a cave half a person's height on the side wall. Haruta Honno tried to throw an identification technique over it:
[The cave where the black bear lives, for some unknown reason, the black bear will not come back until seven days]
It is indeed an appraisal technique that can identify everything.
It's simply awesome.
Haruta Honno couldn't help but praise his good luck.
The reason why the black bear will come back after seven days must be because of the temporary safety zone. If the black bear is here now, then it is probably an elite monster in this area.
Most of the caves with elite monsters like this are where treasure chests can be found.
With such expectations, Haruta Honno leaned against the rock wall, cautiously walked into the cave, and casually released a lighting technique.
It's not that he's too stubborn, it's mainly that the black bear is not around. What if two poisonous snakes pop out of here?
It is impossible for him to capsize in this kind of gutter if he is playing in a dignified manner.
Under the bright light of the illumination ball, everything in the cave can be seen.
This is a cave with a diameter of five meters. The smell inside is not very pleasant, and the damp, moss-covered ground is scattered with the bones of some beasts.
It was obviously the leftovers eaten by the black bear. Then he looked inside and saw a black metal treasure chest placed flatly on a rock platform half a man's height.
[Black Iron Grade Treasure Chest]
"marvelous!"
Haruta Honno clenched his fists excitedly and hurried to the side of the black iron-level treasure chest. He almost fell down because the moss on the ground was too slippery.
[You don’t have the key to the black iron treasure chest. Do you want to spend 200 invasion points to redeem it? 】
"You want a key? So hardcore??"
Haruta Honno slapped his head in annoyance, but after thinking about it carefully, it seemed that there was no problem.
According to the normal procedure, he should kill the black bear to get the treasure chest. The black bear monster should be able to explode the key by then.
"Exchange it."
Haruta Honno looked helpless, but he couldn't throw away the black iron treasure box he got. He just tried it and the treasure box couldn't be put into his backpack.
After spending two hundred invasion points, Haruta Honno had a simple black iron-colored key in his hand.
He excitedly inserted the key into the keyhole, pushed it to his head and twisted it slightly. With a creak, a burst of white light emitted from the treasure box, and the reward inside shot out and hit him in the face.
[First-level Ice Mage Skill Book: Ice Cone Technique]
"Awesome! You actually opened a skill book scroll as soon as you came up?!"
Haruta Honno's fat hand held the scroll and trembled slightly.
He really wanted to post a screenshot of this skill book on the channel to show off and see if it could sell some points of aggression, but when he thought about it, this game didn't seem to say that he couldn't kill each other.
My heart felt slightly cold, and I immediately tore apart the ice pick technique and learned it.
Looking at the ice cone technique solidified on his skill bar, Haruta Honno breathed calmly:
"The world is about to be destroyed, so don't think about making money. Only by making yourself stronger can you live a good life and live a more exciting life."
"Stop being that coward, Haruta Honno!"
With this thought, Haruta Honno left the black bear cave.
Not far in front of him was the boundary of the Novice Village safety zone.
He hesitated for a moment, and with the belief that he would become stronger, he finally stepped out without hesitation.
