Keep attacking girls and try not to be killed by them

While upgrading his skills, Jiang Ran saw that his agility increased by 10 points, and correspondingly, his endurance also increased by 10 points.

3.20 - The third guest in the canyon

(10 o’clock…?!)

Jiang Ran was quite surprised by the benefits of the skill upgrade. You know, before the upgrade, his total dexterity points were only 12 points, and the upgrade of "Concentration" from level 1 to level 2 directly increased his points by 10 points, almost doubling it...!

Compared to upgrading your profession level by slowly adding attributes one point at a time, the benefits of skill upgrades are much higher!

(Got it, start brushing skill proficiency now.)

However, having said that, magic power is limited after all. In this Shadou Canyon, Jiang Ran still has to use magic power in a planned way.

Otherwise, if you don't have magic power to use at the critical moment of life and death, it will be a waste of time.

As long as the green mountains remain, the magic will burn.

Afterwards, Jiang Ran killed all the hyenas that were still alive on the ground one by one.

Jiang Ran had seen in "Animal World" before that spotted hyenas are very smart and good at teamwork.

If they were allowed to run back, they might call more spotted hyenas tonight and surround and kill Jiang Ran in the dark.

Kill them all, this is the way to survive in the wild.

spotted hyena

Vitality: 3/26

Stamina: 2/29

Mana: 0/0

━━━━━━━━━━

Jiang Ran took a look at the last status information of the spotted hyena, and then killed it.

Through this encounter, Jiang Ran obtained some new information.

First of all, there are individual differences among wild creatures, and the values ​​of spotted hyenas are different. If it is a game, there will be copy and paste.

Secondly, the damage caused by each of Jiang Ran's arrows will change depending on the part of the body it hits. For example, if it hits the head, it can kill the spotted hyena instantly, but if it hits the leg, it will only cause about 5 to 8 points of damage.

The last point is that the battles in this world will never become a pure numerical competition. Skills, equipment, tactics and other factors will have a huge impact on the outcome of the battle.

In this encounter, Jiang Ran, whose strength was actually not much higher than that of the spotted hyenas, was able to fight against eight people alone thanks to his superior equipment and correct tactics. However, if Jiang Ran had been surrounded and ambushed by spotted hyenas at night, the result would probably have been different.

(Even if I encounter an enemy numerically far stronger than me, I must never give up thinking...)

·

After finishing, Jiang Ran looked at the corpses of the eight spotted hyenas on the ground and sighed.

Judging from the quantity alone, Jiang Ran can be said to have had a great harvest, but the corpses of these spotted hyenas are of no use.

Hyena meat not only has a tough texture and a fishy taste, but because hyenas often eat carrion and corpses, their meat also carries a large number of pathogens. If Jiang Ran eats their meat, he would be asking for trouble.

Therefore, Jiang Ran just retrieved the arrow he had shot and continued on his journey.

Along the way, Jiang Ran encountered many wild animals one after another. After separating from the caravan, the frequency of wild animals' appearance increased significantly.

Something is wrong...

(Such a phenomenon cannot be explained by "accidental" explanation.)

Jiang Ran thought about it and felt that the root of this difference was Grandma Cassie.

When we were in the caravan before, we had a safe journey because of Grandma Cassie.

As a Lv67 mercenary lord, Grandma Cassie might have secretly used some skills, so animals and monsters dared not approach her.

Thinking of this, Jiang Ran suddenly understood!

(Maybe... that landslide wasn't meant for me.)

Jiang Ran guessed that the attacker attacked him because he didn't dare to provoke Grandma Cassie.

Now, Grandma Cassie has been "invited" out of the canyon by the attackers, and Jiang Ran is probably in danger.

As the sun rises in the east and sets in the west, night falls again.

After a day's march, the Gude Town Cavalry had entered the Shadou Canyon, and Wei'er and Rhodes were still following the team.

During the day today, Leider led the cavalry to search for monsters in the canyon all day, but found nothing.

And Wei'er and Rhodes did not find the brown rock flowers they wanted.

In order to achieve their respective goals, the team had to continue moving deeper into the canyon.

Now, night fell again and the cavalry camped on the spot.

The canyon was rife with dangers, the night attackers were unknown, and while the cavalry wasn't a good bunch, they could barely be considered friendly forces on the same front. Thinking this way, Wei gave up her original idea of ​​leaving the team and stayed with Rhodes.

"Weier, I'll be the one keeping watch for half the night, okay?"

"Well, I'll leave it to you."

Wei'er didn't expect Rhodes to be able to do anything, but having a fellow villager around always made her feel more at ease.

In addition, only by letting Rhodes stay by her side can Wei'er let Sister Ai'er protect him.

·

Soon, it was past midnight and Wei was sleeping soundly because she had Ai'er to rely on.

In the camp, the bonfire was crackling, and amidst this sleep-inducing white noise, there was a strange hissing sound.

Yes, the same strange sound as last night appeared again.

Elle immediately woke up from her shallow consciousness, and the sound made her shudder.

(It's the guy from last night! It's here again!)

Ai'er held her weapon tightly and held her breath. For Wei'er's safety, she chose to hide in the carriage instead of taking the initiative to attack.

In Ai'er's opinion, the soldiers outside are all good "shields". What she wants to see most is the soldiers fighting with the "enemy" rather than herself taking the lead to protect these stupid soldiers.

As a result, while waiting, the "hiss" and "hiss" sounds gradually approached the camp and then slowly disappeared.

The camp returned to peace.

[Prison Star Calendar]

October 187, 5

6:11 AM

〖Confession: 26 days left in the death countdown〗

━━━━━━━━━━

After two days of long journey, Viviana finally arrived at Shadou Canyon.

She dismounted, rubbed her butt which was sore from the shaking over the past two days, then told the horse to wait for her nearby and walked into the canyon.

Viviana has been fighting monsters on the front line most of the time. She has long been accustomed to the scene where monsters are constantly rushing towards her.

And now, looking at this almost empty canyon and the situation where she needs to find the monsters herself, Viviana is somewhat excited.

(The Stone Shadow Rock Demon... could it be a monster like a rock puppet? Since the Gude Town Cavalry came to subdue it three times and couldn't find it, it must be very good at mimicking and hiding, right?)

Viviana came to the foot of the rock wall and summoned a "Floating Scarlet Silver Sword". Then, with the help of the Scarlet Silver Sword, she easily reached the top of the rock wall as if jumping on a step, and had a panoramic view of the Shadou Canyon.

(Long and winding terrain...)

(There is always one side of the rock face in shadow...)

(Stone Shadow Rock Demon...Shadow...)

Although Viviana is naive, has no social experience, and is easily deceived by a scumbag, her experience in combat and on the battlefield far exceeds that of her peers.

Less than half an hour after arriving in Shadou Canyon, she had an idea of ​​where the Stone Shadow Rock Demon might be hiding.

At this moment, Viviana suddenly sensed a strange aura behind her, and immediately flew up and stabbed behind her with a sword...!

3.21 - Unstoppable Disappearance

(Hmm? What is this…huh?)

Viviana's sword stopped at the critical moment. It turned out that behind her was a long-eared jerboa with its eyes blinking.

This little guy is only the size of a human fist, with a pair of long ears and a long tail, giving him a fluffy and uniquely cute look.

(Image source from the Internet, please delete if infringed)

Viviana retracted the scarlet silver sword and stared at the innocent long-eared jerboa for a while.

The poor long-eared jerboa didn't know what would happen to his life. He stood there trembling and dared not move.

For a moment, big eyes stared at small eyes.

Viviana thought about it, then looked around, and after confirming that there was no one around, she suddenly squatted down, picked up the long-eared jerboa, and started caressing and kneading it, feeling very satisfied!

"I never thought there would be such a cute little creature in this desolate place!"

Normally, in order to maintain her cold image, Viviana has to suppress her love for all kinds of cute things. The opportunity to be herself like now is very rare.

"What's your name? Do you want to come home with me? My bed is really big!"

Faced with this silver-haired girl who was countless times cuter than himself, the long-eared jerboa suddenly became shy and ran away.

·

(Alas, I scared you away...)

Viviana was not aware of her beauty. She always thought that it was her murderous aura that scared away these cute little creatures.

However, Viviana has no regrets. To inherit the strength of her previous life, she must work a hundred or a thousand times harder than others.

All the achievements are accumulated by little bit of effort. What Viviana has to do now is to do this "little thing" of hunting the Stone Shadow Rock Demon well.

(I don't have pigeon blood with me, and I only have one bottle of magic potion. I have to use my magic sparingly...)

There are two challenges for Viviana this time:

First, you have to find the monster yourself;

The second is to change the previous style of using magic without restraint;

Viviana retracted the Floating Scarlet Silver Sword and began searching for suspicious places along the canyon.

In this barren stone world, the search quickly became a boring task that wore down people's will, but Viviana did not slack off at all. Her willpower was far beyond that of ordinary people.

(Oh, there's one more thing to note...)

(The date I agreed with Albert to return to Goode Town is May 5th... so I have to leave at the latest on the evening of the 28th...)

(Hmm… still a day and a half left.)

The perspective switches to the Gude Town Cavalry.

When he woke up early in the morning, Captain Leider of the cavalry team had not yet woken up from his sleep when he heard the bad news that someone in the team had mysteriously disappeared.

Two soldiers, this time, two soldiers disappeared in one night!

And just like last time, both the people and the tent disappeared.
