Chapter 7

As a rookie in space, even if you listen to people bragging, you can gain a lot.

"The price of the training ground has risen again recently, and I can't afford to go."

"Wild boar, you still go to the training ground? I can't even fill my stomach. In the last world, I got less than 1,000 survival points. I gave it to the beast for 300, and I did 300 on Natasha's belly. The remaining 400 is not enough to drink. Can you lend me some?"

"Keep your voice down, be careful of Brother Gou's people."

"I don't want to fucking bear it anymore, why does Red Python charge 30% protection fee? If I can't survive, I can only use it as equipment, and I have to find a beast dog! Nima, he is very black-hearted!"

"Hey, I heard that White Tiger, Silver Fox, and Lie Yan all charge 30%, and the imperial court doesn't care."

"The imperial court? When did we meet the officials of the imperial court? By the way, Red Python has received a lot of newcomers recently!"

"The newcomers who dare not come will die tragically." Sigh.

"A newcomer is here."

Everyone fell silent, looking at the newcomer Du Yu.

With a pale face, Du Yu walked in like a corpse and looked at the price list.

The wine here ranges from 50-year-old Moutai, to 1911 vodka, to the five major wineries in France, and the prices are not expensive. A bottle of Wheel Moutai only needs 10 survival points. It is enough to survive at 1-3 points for eating.

However, in order to survive in this world for a month, a little extravagance will consume 1000 survival points.

From talking with Rourou and other newcomers, Du Yu probably knew that the total rewards for the three novice missions they got was only 1000 points.

If there were no extra adventures, after being deprived of 300 survival points, the newcomers would have to save even food, let alone buy weapons and equipment, and go to the practice field to upgrade their skills!

Du Yu sat there, ordered the cheapest beer, and drank it.

Everyone was silent for a while. Seeing that Du Yu was as numb and pitiful as ordinary newcomers, they shook their heads and started discussing again.

"Hey, rookie, do you want to gamble with me? Have some fun?" The big man who scolded Brother Gou just now came staggeringly.

"Old Liang!" The bartender glared at him.

"Don't worry! I'll give you the rest of his drink money." The big man smelled of alcohol and sat in front of Du Yu: "Bet on blackjack. Do you dare?"

Du Yu said coldly, "I won't."

The big man laughed wildly: "If you don't dare to play anything, get out of here. This is a bar for bloody men, not a place to pick up girls, you little boy!"

Du Yu smiled coldly, and pointed to the darts on the wall: "If you have to bet, just bet on that one."

The big man and the others looked at each other and laughed wildly: "Okay, let's bet, 400 survival points."

Others persuaded: "Lao Liang, you only have 400 left, do you want to eat?"

The big man laughed wildly: "Do you know that I was the champion of darts in the bar before I came in? I am agile at 8 o'clock now, and I can hit a hundred shots!"

Du Yu smiled coldly.

The two started throwing darts. Under the insistence of the big man, the throwing distance of darts has been increased from 5 meters to 20 meters. He was afraid that the rookie would also know how to bid, so he had to be foolproof.

The big man was really unambiguous, 10 darts in a row, all hit the target 20 meters away, and three darts hit 10 rings in a row! Ended up with a score of 75 points.

Du Yu took the darts.

Seeing that he was going to lose, someone by the side sighed: "Old Liang, everyone is suffering haha, why bother the newcomer. Otherwise, how about he admit defeat to 200?"

Old Liang yelled, "300! Call him Uncle Liang!"

Everyone booed.

Du Yu smiled contemptuously, he dared to throw darts with this old Liang, of course he had something to rely on!

He now has the skill of [Flying Leaf and Flying Flowers], and his agility value is as high as 8 points. With a silver needle as thin as a cow's hair, he can still hit a target dozens of meters away. Hitting a target with a dart is really not too easy!

Du Yu threw the first dart.

10 ring hits.

Old Liang's expression changed: "Good luck!"

The second dart is 10 rings.

Old Liang forced a smile.

The third is 10 rings.

Everyone began to be amazed.

Until the 8th dart, it is still 10 rings.

Lao Liang suddenly yelled angrily: "You cheat! You die!"

He rushed over like a raging bull.

The bar suddenly became chaotic.

As soon as Du Yu jumped out of the bar, he didn't want to expose his skills.

Lao Liang rushed out: "Hand over 400 survival points, and spare you!"

Du Yu coldly ran into the narrow alley behind the bar.

Old Liang rushed in with a sinister grin.

The screams resounded randomly throughout the alley.

Du Yu stepped on Lao Liang's shoulder, snapped off one of his arms, and said coldly, "Believe it or not, I killed you?"

Lao Liang knelt down on the ground weak all over, terrified in his heart.

The other party didn't know what kind of skill was used, so that he was seriously poisoned and paralyzed again, so he could only be slaughtered.

Why are rookies so powerful these days?

Du Yu forced Lao Liang to hand over 400 survival points, looked at him with a frowning face, and shouted: "I will ask you a question, and if you answer a question, you can still save your life. I paid 100 survival points, and space can tell me whether what you said is true or not. If you make a false statement, you will lose your arm. If you make a false statement, you will lose your life."

Lao Liang admitted his failure and nodded hastily.

"How long have you been in this slum?"

"5 worlds."

"Old bird. How many slums are there in the space?"

"Each gate, 100. A total of 400."

"How many adventurers per slum?"

"Usually 500."

"How many people are there in this city?"

"There are 200,000 people in the slums, 50,000 in the outer city, and no one in the inner city."

"How to enter the outer city from the slums?"

"If you pass the copper-colored ghost gate test, you will be eligible to enter the city. The same goes for entering the inner city from the outer city."

"What is the copper-colored ghost gate test?"

"It's a world with a special plot. Every three worlds, the space will organize a big test. The rewards after passing must include a copper-colored ghost gate token, and you can enter the city. But the difficulty of the test must be C-level difficulty. The tasks in ordinary slums are all D-level. Nine lives."

"What if you fail?"

"I haven't passed the test, and I won't kill you if I don't pass the space. But the rewards for the next three worlds are only 75%, and if I fail to pass, it will be reduced to 50%. Until the 12th month, the fourth assessment, if I fail to pass, I will be killed directly." Lao Liang smiled wryly.

"One month between each mission?"

"Yes."

"You said you can go to the training ground, where is that?"

"The training ground is a place in every area. There is a fee to train there, but the proficiency of practicing exercises will grow several times faster. The higher the payment, the faster the skill improvement."

"In the space, how to improve the attribute value and skill level?"

"There are two main ways to attribute value: one is to complete the task, and after the world returns, free attribute points will be finally rewarded. The second is to improve through practicing exercises, completing tasks, self-training and other methods. The skill level basically depends on reading skill books and scrolls, self-training, and using more exercises to upgrade. But it cannot exceed the level of the scrolls or cheats in your hand."

"Can you predict the next world mission in advance?"

"We can't. But I heard that big forces can hide props or skills, but it's very expensive."

"Where is the weather upgrade?"

Old Liang froze.

The weather upgrade means that this newcomer has slaughtered at least 5 people in the novice mission!

"At a fortune teller, he's a system guy. On the east side of the slums."

"What is the Star Reaching Pavilion for?"

"Legends say that if we adventurers can finally go to the Zhaixing Pavilion and kill the emperor, the supreme ruler of the court, a dream will come true. Most people want to get out of this precarious life. It seems that the role of the Leaning Tower of Pisa, the Pyramid and the Tongtian Tower are similar to the Zhaixing Pavilion."

"What's in the mist outside our slums?"

"It's the bloodland of the wilderness."

"What exactly?"

"The wild bloodland is the endless continent outside the Suzaku Gate, Triumph Gate, Tongtian Gate, and Antarctic Gate. There are all kinds of rare treasures on it, but there are also countless wild beasts. It is a hunting ground that everyone yearns for and everyone fears. Once you enter, you will die in all likelihood, but if you can come back successfully, you will often get rich overnight."

"The difficulty cannot be determined?"

"There are still rules to follow. The closer to the city, the lower the danger of the beast, but the lower the reward. The farther away from the city, the stronger the beast, the better the dropped props and treasures, and the higher the possibility of getting an adventure."

"I heard that you still have a pawn of treasures, hand them over!" Du Yu was not polite to an adventurer like Lao Liang who would risk his life every now and then.

Lao Liang could only hate secretly, and handed over a treasure.

Du Yu saw that it was a sharkskin swimming trunks.

"Are you kidding me?" His arm snapped off.

Lao Liang screamed: "This is a D-level baby [Sharkskin Shuijiao]. The wearer automatically masters swimming skills and increases swimming speed by 30%. I have asked for it many times, but I am not willing to give it to him. He recently threatened me that if I don't give it to him, he will kill me. He also promised me to buy it at twice the market price, which is 1000 survival points."
