Chapter 7: Minor Boss
"Chicken feathers are materials, and chicken at is food ingredients. Both are quest items," Black-Eyed Rui Ge judged. "The Abyssal energy you absorbed is most likely used as experience points for leveling up, while the Abyssal Magic Crystal fragnts should be the ga’s currency!"
Midnight Pig Slayer said, "Hahaha, a Level 1 little monster drops this much loot? Our missions seem pretty doable. Even though this ga is extrely hardcore, the rewards from combat are just too satisfying!"
Who could understand this feeling!
Killing a single Level 1 little monster,
Could actually make these seasoned veterans so excited, thrilled, even filled with a sense of achievent and satisfaction!
This was mainly because it felt so real.
There was no sensation of playing a ga at all, yet just like a ga, as long as they took action, they would gain rewards—and these rewards even exceeded expectations!
Black-Eyed Rui Ge even felt,
The gaplay experience was completely surreal!
In other words, it was more exhilarating than real life!
Whether it was the near-reflexive muscle mory injected into them, or the sense of power control when casting skills and spells, none of it could be experienced in the real world, making one genuinely feel like they possessed superpowers.
The combat rhythm was fast, highly variable, with a "dancing on the blade’s edge" sensation—hot-blooded, thrilling, and exhilarating to the extre!
"Hurry up! Hurry up! Find the next one! Let take the next one!" Street Slayer shouted, his greatsword already thirsting for action. "This ga is just too addictive!"
"Wait! Sothing doesn’t feel right. Isn’t this supposed to be a Three Kingdoms ga?"
Midnight Pig Slayer could not help but complain, "Aren’t we supposed to be playing a Three Kingdoms ga to spar with Lü Bu and Zhao Yun, flirt with Da Qiao and Xiao Qiao, swear brotherhood with Lord Guan, or discuss the charms of married won with Lord Cao? Why the hell are we killing chickens here!"
"Well, that’s true."
"But compared to other gas,"
"Just killing chickens is already super fun!"
"Exactly. I could spend a whole year just killing little monsters!"
"Everything needs to be done step by step. We can’t just leave the newbie village and imdiately have the Three Heroes fight Lü Bu!"
"Fatty, quit your whining! We agreed that the next monster is mine! Nobody is allowed to steal it from !"
Around the small village stretched a wide ring of grassy hills, with wild, unknown plants growing chaotically, so nearly reaching a person’s height.
Hidden among the grass were many Snake-Tailed Mountain Chickens, making the environnt quite dangerous.
Black-Eyed Rui Ge had almost gotten wrecked just now.
It was clear that even the weakest little monsters should not be underestimated.
Although they dread of challenging the top Demonized Generals, they had to move step by step, and not aim too high at once!
The four of them began teaming up to farm monsters. Black-Eyed Rui Ge handled scouting and pulling mobs, Street Slayer served as the tank engaging head-on, Chira Wraith provided ranged support and burst output, while Midnight Pig Slayer assisted with combat and healing.
As long as they did not attract more than two Snake-Tailed Mountain Chickens at a ti, there would be no problem!
If the number exceeded two, they would imdiately turn and run without hesitation.
Snake-Tailed Mountain Chickens were not particularly fast, so escaping danger in such cases was generally not difficult.
【You have killed a “Snake-Tailed Mountain Chicken”, Abyssal energy 20, Snake-Tailed Chicken Feather 4, Abyssal Magic Crystal fragnts ×10!】
【You have killed a “Snake-Tailed Mountain Chicken”, Abyssal energy 20, Snake-Tailed Chicken Feather 2, Snake-Tailed Chicken at 3, Abyssal Magic Crystal fragnts 12!】
【You have killed a “Snake-Tailed Mountain Chicken”, Abyssal energy 20, Snake-Tailed Chicken at 5, Abyssal Magic Crystal fragnts 10!】
【……】
In less than three hours,
The team had hunted nineteen Snake-Tailed Mountain Chickens.
At first glance, the number did not seem large, but in reality, their efficiency was quite high.
This was not a typical video ga where all the wild monsters stood around within visible range waiting to be clicked and killed.
The area of grassland was about the size of a dium-scale university campus, dotted with short trees, bushes, small streams, and rivers, hiding many dangers. Exploration could not possibly be fast.
From the current situation,
Each Snake-Tailed Chicken would drop a large amount of Abyssal Magic Crystal fragnts and material food ingredients.
The four of them were so motivated that they decided to go all out and gather enough materials to complete the mission in one push.
At this mont, they discovered a distinctive area—a large patch of grassland seed to have just been burned, with faint traces of embers still visible.
At the center, on a scorched and withered tree, stood a Snake-Tailed Mountain Chicken unlike any they had seen before.
This Snake-Tailed Mountain Chicken stood over 1.4 ters tall, with wings spanning at least three to four ters. Half of its feathers were blazing red and dense, while its scales glowed a dark crimson. Its aura was powerful and majestic.
【Snake-Tailed Fla Chicken】, Level 3 elite unit, Health 200/200... Introduction: The leader of the Snake-Tailed Mountain Chickens, possessing the ability to use fla attacks.
"It’s a BOSS!"
"Got super lucky!"
Anyone with eyes could see that this was no ordinary chicken.
Whether in level, health, or even its description, everything scread that this was a premium-grade chicken—a true battle chicken among mountain chickens!
Midnight Pig Slayer asked, "So, what do you say? Are we doing this or not?"
"Of course we’re doing it! Why wouldn’t we? If you don’t even dare to take on a chicken at the village entrance, and you still dream of fighting Lü Bu and Dian Wei, you might as well go back under your blanket and play cards!" Street Slayer said, "I’ve got a feeling this thing is guaranteed to drop so top-tier equipnt!"
Chira Wraith was a bit more cautious, "But look at how thick this monster’s health bar is. We might not be able to withstand it."
That was true.
But the BOSS was right in front of them.
Whether it bore fruit or not, they had to at least give it a few hits.
Besides, it was just a ga—what was there to be afraid of?!
Black-Eyed Rui Ge opened his panel and took a look. "I’m just 20 Abyssal energy away from leveling up. I think we shouldn’t rush it. Let's clear the surrounding monsters first, level up a bit, and then co back to farm the BOSS. It won’t be too late."
That made sense!
After all, it was a Level 3 monster.
After a quick discussion, they decided to proceed with this plan. They skirted around the Snake-Tailed Fla Chicken and soon found another Snake-Tailed Mountain Chicken. After a round of coordinated operations, they easily finished the fight.
【Ding, you have reached Level 2. Health 10, Strength 2, Agility 3, Spirit 1, Will 1!】
After collecting the loot, Black-Eyed Rui Ge felt a surge of mysterious energy erupting from within, strengthening every organ, every inch of flesh and blood, and every single cell in his body, making him feel power coursing through his entire being.
"So this is what leveling up feels like? Damn, it’s even better than getting a full massage treatnt!"
Black-Eyed Rui Ge’s face lit up with delight. "Just what kind of black technology does this ga use? Not only can it inject muscle mory, it even gives the illusion that I’m genuinely getting stronger!"
Leveling up was quite fast.
This greatly boosted everyone's morale.
After another two to three hours of grinding,
The nearby Snake-Tailed Mountain Chickens were almost completely wiped out.
Midnight Pig Slayer, Street Slayer, and Chira Wraith had all reached Level 2 as well.
The players’ individual strength improved, and their teamwork beca increasingly seamless, leading to a notable increase in monster-killing efficiency.
Now, with a full team of Level 2 players, they had even accumulated nearly half the experience needed for Level 3.
However, after the prolonged battles,
Their mana points were running low.
And the feeling of exhaustion and hunger was growing stronger.
Did this ga really have to be this realistic and hardcore? They could even feel hunger within the ga!
The four of them gathered so wood, made a fire by friction, and started a campfire.
They wrapped four portions of chicken at in leaves and mud, then buried them under the fire to roast.
Soon, a tantalizing aroma spread through the air...
"We can eat food!"
"We can actually eat food!"
"God damn! This chicken slls amazing!"
Although the Snake-Tailed Mountain Chicken looked ugly, its at was extraordinarily tender and delicious, with a texture sowhere between poultry and seafood.
Even without any seasoning, it was already a top-notch dish.
Paired with the wild fruits they had gathered during their exploration, it could even be considered a luxurious feast.
From making fire to cooking, everything required manual operations.
The freedom and realism of the ga were so extre it was almost insane!
Even if soone just ca here for sightseeing or life experience,
It would still be an absolutely delightful journey.
An hour later,
Their stamina was mostly restored.
Their mana was also mostly replenished.
Everything was ready to go!
At that mont, another group of players approached.
Also a four-man team, all of them Level 2.
They were clearly also here for the Snake-Tailed Fla Chicken. It was truly a narrow road where enemies t.
Street Slayer said, "Hey, brothers, normally we respect first-co, first-served, right? We found this BOSS first."
Ye Li ng replied, "I’ve played gas for so many years, and outdoor BOSSes are always free-for-all. There’s no such rule as first-co, first-served! Anyway, this BOSS chicken—we’re determined to take it!"
Tension started rising between the two player teams.
"Everyone, hear out!"
Black-Eyed Rui Ge quickly stepped forward.
"This 'Twisted Three Kingdoms' is definitely a groundbreaking masterpiece. As first-beta players, we should seize the opportunity and not waste energy fighting among ourselves. It's just a minor BOSS, right? Let’s just kill it together and split the loot. No need to ruin the mood over small stuff!"
"That’s true."
"It’s not like it’s Wolong or Young Phoenix, or one of the Five Tiger Generals."
"Turning against each other over a wild chicken BOSS would be really low-class."
Ye Li ng imdiately agreed, and naturally, the others had no objections either.
The two small teams rged smoothly, expanding from a four-man team to an eight-man squad.
With their confidence greatly boosted, they thought—how could they possibly fail to take down a re little outdoor BOSS now? Absolutely impossible!
