The King Of Passive Skills-Novel2

Chapter 3: Novice Village

Entering the game...

“Six Guan Bodhisattva, welcome to the New World 10081 Novice Village.”

‘D*mn it! More than 10,000 people are already in this novice village? There are so many people on the first day of the game. It’s really explosive.’ According to the New World official website, every novice village had 1,000 people online. If there were more than 1,000 people, the next novice village would automatically open. And now more than 10,000 people were there. 4

In other words, in just a few minutes into the game, there were already more than 10 million people entering the game. Zhang Shan’s first thought was that the game was really attractive. His second thought was that there were really many people who did not need to go to work. If they were still at work, they definitely would not have time to play now. After all, 8 am was the time to go to work. 5

The novice village was very simple and crude. It was completely incomparable to the giant city in the CG animation. Looking around, there were only three or four buildings. There were not many NPCs either. There was only a handful of them. However, as the players arrived one after another, the crowd would surge quickly.

“This New World is lousy. Can’t the novice village look better?”

“I don’t care how it looks. I just want to know if there’s a novice quest and where to accept it. If anyone knows, please squeak.” 4

“Zhi”

“Go find the village chief. The village chief has a quest, but don’t expect too much. Just take it as none.”

“What kind of weird quest is this? A copper coin will be rewarded for each monster.”

Hearing the shouts in his ears, thinking of the New World’s quest system, Zhang Shan could not help but shake his head.

The New World’s quests were very different from other games. They were especially rare. 4

According to the introduction on the official website, in the New World, only those who met the conditions and obtained quest items could trigger quests. The number was very small, and every quest item was very precious. It was impossible to rely on the NPC to familiarize himself with the quest. If even the official website had mentioned that there were only a few of them, then there was no need to think too much but to take a look at the novice quests first.

Zhang Shan took small steps and started running. It was said that the agility class had a fast movement speed, but this was just like an old man taking a stroll. 1

When he came to the only building in the novice village that looked rather sturdy, Zhang Shan found the village chief. There was a question mark above his head, which meant that there was a quest that could be triggered. There were also dozens of players surrounding the village chief.

Fortunately, the game settings allowed NPCs to talk to many people at the same time. Otherwise, if they all came to accept the novice quest, they would have to wait for a long time.

Zhang Shan went forward and started a conversation with the village chief. “Hello, Village Chief.”

“Hello, Young Man, I see that you have wonderful bone structure. I have a mission for world peace for you. You must accept it.” 2

Zhang Shan looked bewildered. What did he mean? At this moment, he saw the mission panel flashing.

Opening the mission panel, Zhang Shan saw the mission content.

Mission: exterminate the demons (permanently) 4

Demon extermination: the arrival of the demons, under the leadership of the Demon God, wreak havoc in the human world, and all living things are in misery and suffering. Zhou Tianzi, who is in the eastern capital, has issued an order to exterminate the demons. He called on all the people in the world to pick up their weapons and exterminate the demons. Each demon exterminated will be rewarded with a copper coin. 5

After Zhang Shan accepted the quest, his demon extermination quest appeared.

Quest: exterminate the demon

Number of completed quests:

Available rewards:

Killing a monster would only be rewarded with one copper coin. It might still be attractive in the beginning, but when the players leveled up, most probably no one would pay attention to it anymore. At most, when they had no money to spend, they might withdraw the rewards for emergency use. 1

After receiving the quest, Zhang Shan ran out of the village while checking the novice equipment given by the system.

Novice musket: physical attack 1-5 1

Novice clothes: defense

After that, it was gone. There were a weapon and clothes.

Checking the attributes:

Character: Six Guan Bodhisattva

Class: Hunter

Level:

Health points: 1

Magic points:

Physical attack: 11-

Magic attack: 5-

Strength:

Agility:

Intelligence:

Defense:

Luck: 9 (randomly generated within a range of 1-10. Luck is a hidden attribute and will never change) 3

Talent: Passive King (every time you kill a monster, there is a chance to randomly obtain a passive skill from the monster. The probability is one in a million.) 1

Opening the skill panel, he looked at the novice skills given by the system.

Skill 1, Headshot (passive), Level 1. Every attack of the Hunter has a chance to trigger the Headshot effect, causing additional 50 damages and stun for 0.05 seconds. The trigger rate is 0.5%. 10

Wow, the first skill was actually a passive skill. That would mean obstacles in his adventures.

However, this skill was not bad. It had an additional 50 damages, which could be used for a while. At least in the early stages, it would be very powerful. Once the headshot effect was triggered, the effect would be equivalent to tripled or quadrupled. Moreover, it also had a stunning effect. Although it was only for 0.05 seconds and did not seem to be of much use, the stun could at least cause the target to pause for a moment. Moreover, in the later stages, it should be able to be used to interrupt a skill. It was a pretty good passive skill.

The only downside was that it tested one’s luck too much. With a 0.5% chance, even if the skill levels were added together, the chance should not be too high.

When he passed by the grocery store at the entrance of the village, Zhang Shan stopped and opened the package.

There were only two items in the 20-slot package. They were 1,000 ordinary bullets and a small bottle of red potion. There were also 100 copper coins.

Normal bullets: attack 0-1. Small HP potion: recovers 50 HP after use. 2

...

It was just a small bottle of red potion, but the bullets were still okay. There were 1,000 bullets. With Hunter’s initial attack speed, with a 2-second attack interval, he could at most have 30 hits per minute. If he continued to attack, it would be close to 2,000 hits per hour. In other words, he had to prepare 2,000 bullets per hour. He should replenish some more bullets. Zhang Shan thought as he walked towards the grocery store. 1

“Hello, Young Hunter, what do you want to buy?”

“Boss, how much does it cost for bullets?”

“There are two types of bullets. Which one do you want?”

Zhang Shan looked at the grocery store’s inventory. 1000 ordinary bullets cost 100 copper coins while 1000 fine bullets cost one gold coin.

D*mn it! One gold coin? Was there a mistake? Who would have gold coins at this time? One gold coin was equivalent to 100 silver coins, and 10,000 copper coins. This was something that had no market at all.

However, this fine bullet’s attributes were amazing. Its attack power was 50-100. In other words, if Zhang Shan was equipped with fine bullets, wouldn’t he be killing monsters one by one in the beginner stage? 1

Of course, it was just a thought. Everyone only had 100 copper coins now. Putting together all the copper coins of 100 people would only be enough for one gold coin. There were only 1,000 people in the entire novice village. Who would be able to gather that much money?

Who said Hunter was a class that consumed a little? Just the consumption of bullets was not less than the cost of a mage’s potion. It seemed that he had to learn vocational skills that made bullets in the future. Otherwise, his dream of earning money in the New World would be shattered.

He bought 1,000 normal bullets and spent all his copper coins.

Running out of the village entrance, Zhang Shan saw a few players killing chickens. As each novice village only had a maximum of 1,000 players, and the map was large enough, it did not look like it was crowded to kill monsters. At least, there was no need to fight for monsters. 2

...

Zhang Shan found a place where there was no one. He looked at a chicken and checked its attributes.

Demonized chicken: health points: 100; attack power: 10; peck skill: when demonized chicken is angry and uses its peck, the damage will be doubled.

Zhang Shan could not help but feel a headache. The attributes of the chicken were similar to his. In other words, after killing a monster, it had to meditate and rest to recover its health. If his luck was not good, he might be in danger if the chicken attacked once or twice more.

He did not want to think about it anymore. He started to fire. He picked up the novice musket, aimed, and shot at the demonized chicken. – 11, -12,-11. When the chicken walked in front of Zhang Shan, he had already fired three shots. Luckily, the chicken’s movement speed was very slow. It should not be difficult to deal with. 7

After a few more hits, the demonized chicken fell to the ground. Experience +5. Ding ding, two copper coins directly fell into the package. This setting of the New World was good. It would be picked up automatically. The item would fall into the package. 2

At this time, Zhang Shan only had around 30 HP left. He couldn’t even kill two in a row. He had to meditate to recover his HP. 5

He looked at his experience bar. Level 1 to Level 2 required 500 EXP, which meant that he had to kill 100 demonized chickens. Killing monsters for half a minute and meditating for one minute was a bit slow.

When Zhang Shan sat down to recover his HP, a berserker with an ax in his hand walked over. Zhang Shan looked at his character name, Thousand Miles Riding Alone. Could this be the one on the forum who told others not to snatch his name?

“Bro, it’s easier to team up and farm together.”

“Okay, you start the team.”

“Okay, the distribution method would be money to be evenly distributed, and items will be randomly distributed. Is that okay?” Thousand Miles Riding Alone asked Zhang Shan. historical

As the items dropped directly into the package, the distribution method had to be set before forming a team. Otherwise, if all the items were dropped on one person, the other person would be cheated. As for the experience, it was distributed according to the level ratio. If the levels were the same, the items would be distributed equally.

“Okay, let’s start the team,” Zhang Shan replied.

Personal system: you have teamed up with Thousand Miles Riding Alone. The team income distribution method is to distribute the money equally and the items randomly.

“Let’s fight one monster at the same time. I’ll go first. We’ll fight together when the monster reaches us,” Zhang Shan said.

Okay.

With his HP restored to full, Zhang Shan aimed at a chicken in the distance and fired a shot. When the monster reached him, the two of them killed the monster together and took it down. The two of them were unharmed. Only Zhang Shan was hit by the chicken and lost 18 HP. 2

They continued to the next demonized chick. 1

“Brother, your damage seems to be much higher than mine. How much damage does the ax add?”

The moment Zhang Shan finished asking, Thousand Miles Riding Alone released the attributes of the novice ax.

Novice Ax: physical attack 3-

Its attributes were 3 points higher than the novice musket in his hand. For a Level 1 novice, 3 points meant one-third of the damage. No wonder Thousand Miles Riding Alone had much higher damage than him.

“D*mn it! Your ax is much stronger than my musket.” Zhang Shan could not help but feel envious.

“Three more points of attack is useless. Musket long-ranged attacks are much safer than warriors. What are the novice skills of Hunters? I didn’t see you use it just now.” Thousand Miles Riding Alone asked curiously. The game had just started, so everyone basically did not know the novice skills of other classes.

“Passive skill, Headshot. The probability is too low, so it’s hard to trigger.”

After saying that, Zhang Shan displayed the headshot skill.

“This Headshot is a godly skill. It’s very useful in the later stages. It’s not like our warrior’s Fallen Leaf Slash, which can only be used in the beginner stage. In the later stages, it’s about the same as a normal skill.” 1

Thousand Miles Riding Alone displayed his skill.

Fallen Leaf Slash: the warrior wields a weapon to slash at the target. Damage + 10. Cooldown time: 10 seconds. Magic point: 5 points. 2

There were no special effects, only pure skill damage. It did not add much, but as a novice skill, it was pretty good. The additional 10 damage was equivalent to a normal attack. It should be a common warrior skill. The Berserker, Guardian, and Magic Swordsman probably would be using this novice skill.

Different classes could learn many skills in the New World. There were even skills that were common to all classes.

The two of them were chatting while killing monsters.

“Was that you who posted on the Forum?”

“Haha, you’ve seen the forum, too. That wasn’t me. I also felt that this character’s name was pretty good and had an imposing aura. In the end, I was the first to register. I wonder if that guy would be angry.” 2

As they spoke, the two of them killed over 10 monsters together. Suddenly, white light fell into Zhang Shan’s bag.

“Yeah, it seems like an item has appeared.”

Thousand Miles Riding Alone, “Quickly take a look, what equipment is that? Is it something that we can use?”

Zhang Shan opened his package, and there were additional clothes in it.

Rough iron armor (white): defense +5, equipment Level 1, durability 5-5, equipment type: plate armor.

He could not use it. Plate armor type equipment, only warriors could wear it.

“It’s your equipment, here you go.”

After saying that, Zhang Shan directly made a trade, giving the rough iron armor to Thousand Miles Riding Alone.

“Haha, now I can tank monsters. After changing into these clothes, I have 7 points of defense. I can completely withstand the damage of the chicken. Brother, thank you, it will be yours if there’s equipment for you next time.”

“Don’t mention. It’s only worth a few copper coins.”

Of course, Zhang Shan was just saying that. Everyone was a novice and weak. If Zhang Shan called out in the novice village, there would definitely be people willing to pay to buy it. Even if it was trash equipment, as it had only been 10 minutes since the game started, any equipment was a hot item. 1
