Chapter 26 Competition is fierce and the gap narrows

[Please note that monsters in advanced areas will become more powerful. Survivors are asked to choose carefully during exploration. 】

"Higher area?"

Han Xing looked around and found that there were indeed many clouds of different sizes in the distant sky.

The number of clouds is much greater than that of the current area.

"It turns out that I have been staying in the novice area before. Only after defeating the most powerful monster in this area can I go to the advanced map."

Han Xing seemed to understand some of the operating mechanisms of this game and shook his head, "Forget it, that area is still far away from me. At the current speed of travel, it will take at least four or five hours. Let's talk about it tomorrow."

Thinking of this, Han Xing decided to deal with the loot in front of him first.

He walked to the corpse of the gray rock wolf and decomposed it directly.

[Successfully decomposed the gray stone giant wolf corpse, recovered 13 refined iron arrows, obtained one-star high-quality animal hide*1, obtained 104kg of thick wolf meat, obtained beast heart*1, and obtained strong man's blood*5...]

"High quality hide?"

Han Xing looked at the thick fur on the ground and said, "I remember it can be used to make blue leather armor equipment. What a good thing!"

As for the other beast heart and strong man's blood, he hasn't figured out the use yet, so he has put them all away for now.

There was nothing good in the territory of this giant gray rock wolf, but when Han Xing merged the empty islands, he found some unexpected surprises.

Under the moonlight, on the edge of the giant wolf's territory, several rocky territories shimmered with silver light.

"There's a baby!" Han Xing's eyes lit up.

He walked over and squatted on the ground to observe.

Han Xing said with some uncertainty: "There should be some kind of ore in this."

"Would you like to dig into it?"

Thinking of this, Han Xing took out a pickaxe from his backpack and started hammering hard.

Ding! Ding! Ding!

The sound of metal hitting stone continued.

When Han Xing knocked off the stones on the surface of these pieces of ore, finally revealing the silvery ore inside, the system prompt also appeared at this time.

[Mithril ore needs to be smelted to extract the mithril inside. 】

"Smelting?"

Han Xing was confused: "I don't have any equipment. Do I need to build a smelting workshop?"

Although mithril is a good thing, it is also the main material for making other blue equipment.

But it seems that at the current stage of the survivors, it is not possible to refine this metal.

Unless the later version is updated, the territory construction function will be enabled.

At that time, survivors can build various facilities in their own territory, such as smelting workshops, weapons laboratories, fortifications, and even taverns, etc.

Currently, Mithril can only be found in treasure chests with a small probability.

Han Xing was able to receive more than 20 mithril ingots before because of the efforts of the European Emperors among the players. Of course, the chance of this is very small.

Since Mithril could not be extracted for the time being, Han Xing stuffed all the Mithril ore into the storage box.

Then, he looked at the standings.

First place: Xinghe, with 184 territory points.

Second place: Whisperer, territory points 162.

Third place: Blackhawk, 123 territory points.

Fourth place: Papaya Star Spirit, with 115 territory points.

the fifth place……

"Huh? Is the Whisperer catching up soon? Black Hawk also surpassed the Papaya Protoss and took the third position?"

Han Xing was a little surprised when he saw the standings.

The gap between him and the Whisperer has gradually narrowed, and the other party is also working hard to catch up.

But after thinking about it, although he is now equipped with almost a full set of green equipment, the attribute gap between him and other survivors is actually not that big.

As the survivors continue to explore outside, they will also find various equipment, skill books, etc. in other territories.

Even if you don't use it yourself, you can get it from the trading channel for exchange.

The strength of the survivors is steadily improving, especially the top ones among them, which are improving rapidly.

Of course, there are also corresponding costs behind this.

Han Xing saw that the 10,000 survivors in Area 107 had grown to 9,632.

This means that in three days, more than 300 people lost their lives here alone!

According to this ratio, the current death number of human survivors has probably reached a terrifying number.

Although most of the people here died in accidents, as the difficulty of survival increases and the monsters encountered become stronger and stronger, this number will continue to soar.

At this time, Isamu Narumi said in the discussion group: "Brother Xing, there is something about that Whisperer. He is almost catching up with you!"

Ever since he knew that the Korean star was Xinghe, Cheng Jianyong has been paying attention to the rankings.

Han Xing replied: "Well, he is indeed very strong. If I guessed correctly, he should be a mage."

"Mage?"

"Yes."

Han Xing affirmed: "Four of the five skills of the mage in the early stage are destructive skills. As the captain of a team, the Whisperer has probably gathered them all with the help of the team members. Coupled with the equipment blessing, the mage's exploration The speed is indeed much faster than other professions.”

"That's it." Cheng Jianyong was stunned and continued to ask: "Brother Xing, how do you know this?"

"Read more about the game introduction and you will know."

Han Xing paused and continued: "By the way, what are your current rankings?"

"Huh?" Cheng Jianyong seemed a little confused, "Brother Xing, didn't you look at the rankings? Brother Yun and I have both made the list!"

"You didn't say your fictitious name, how do I know what your names are?"

"You didn't even ask."

Korean star: "..."

"Stop being so naughty and tell me what your name is."

Cheng Jianyong laughed, "Okay, my name is 'Lonely Brave Man', and Brother Yun's name is 'Yun Tianming'."

"..."

Korean star: "What a good name for the middle school student..."

"Yeah, I also think the name Yun Tianming is pretty cool."

"I am talking about you."

Cheng Jianyong: "???"

At this time, Chen Yun was still counting points overnight and did not see the conversation between the two people in the discussion group, otherwise he would have been fighting with Zheng Jianyong for half an hour.

Han Xing opened the ranking list and was shocked to see that the name of 'Lonely Brave' had been ranked 65th, currently having 33 points.

And ‘Yun Tianming’, also known as Shen Yun, has actually broken into the top forty, occupying the 37th place with a score of 57 points.

Han Xing was a little surprised, but after thinking about it, it was expected.

After all, I gave them almost a complete set of high-quality green clothing, as well as so many skill books, plus a large amount of spiritual spring water, so they could explore boldly without any scruples.

It is natural to have this speed of reaching the rankings.

After closing the chat, Han Xing continued to approach other clouds.

After reaching level 3, the speed of Sky Island becomes 8 meters per second, which is equivalent to a speed of 8 kilometers per hour, which is already quite fast.

While driving on the island, Han Xing also took the time to glance at the chat channel.

After a whole day of fighting and exploring, the survivors shared their experiences inside.

"Hey, I was really unlucky today. When I was exploring the territory, I encountered an elite-level jungle tiger. I was almost bitten to death by it. If I hadn't been able to use the ancestral magic skill of sliding shovel, I would have ended up there."

"Upstairs, what do you mean? I encountered a huge bear today, and it broke more than a dozen of my ribs with one slap. Fortunately, I am a physical education student. I ran with it for more than ten kilometers and carried it on my back. That bear didn't let me go until it was tired."

"You guys are so awesome. Compared to you, being bitten by a five-step snake seems like nothing."

"Brother, you were bitten by a five-step snake and can you still speak?"

"Oh, because I pulled out its fangs and it's okay to bite it. It's still very comfortable. I'm going to keep it as a pet."

"..."

"..."

"Brother, you are so perverted..."

Speechless symbols appeared in the chat channel.

At this time, someone said: "Stop joking, look at the Papaya Star Spirit boss's guide again."

"The boss has released a guide again? I read his post before and followed the tips to avoid several clouds hiding monsters."

"Me too. Thanks to the strategy of Papaya Star Spirit, I was able to easily open a bronze treasure chest."

"Look what it is this time?"

Everyone clicked in and saw that it was a strategy post posted by Papaya Star Spirit, and there were hundreds of replies in a short period of time.

But the title of the post is different from before, but reveals a serious style.

"alert! Dark Elf Team! 》
