The King Of Passive Skills

Chapter 14: Rabbit Killer

After closing the forum, Zhang Shan took a look at the experience bar. It was 3562/6000. The experience gained from killing the boss had increased by almost one and a half levels, saving a lot of time. More importantly, the total experience required to level up to level 5 was no longer multiplied. It was only an additional 1,000 EXP than leveling up to level 5. It seemed that after level 5, the experience requirement had become more stable. Of course, it was also reckoned that the experience to gain from the monsters in the future would not increase too much.

The two of them continued to farm for a while. Storm of the World and the others also came online one after another.

“Boss World, what are we going to do next? Are we still farming wild boars here?” Thousand Miles Riding Alone asked.

“No. I think everyone has leveled up by now. Especially after we fought the boss, many people will come to the wild boar forest. Although the map here is large, it will not be enough to farm. I plan to farm level 10 monsters. I heard from the Thief in the guild that there is a type of single-horned goat monster among the level 10 monsters. It should be relatively easy to farm. It has 2,000 HP and less than 100 attack power. With Little Secretary’s defense, he can easily tank it,” Storm of the World replied directly.

“How about we team up and go together?”

“Let’s split into two teams. Little Secretary and I will be in on team. The three of you will continue to form a team. In the New World, no experience will be gained from forming a team. It is actually less efficient to form a team with more people.”

“Okay, let’s go then.”

Zhang Shan thought for a while and said, “You guys go ahead. I will go and farm the rabbits alone. Most of the people should be level 3 or 4 by now. There won’t be too many people farming level 2 rabbits. I will go and try to see if I can get the passive skill.”

“I think you shouldn’t try. After all, there’s only one chance out of one million. You can’t be lucky all the time. If you want to get the passive skill out of the rabbits, it’ll take at least a few days. It might be 10 days to half a month. And you can’t stay in the novice village for so long, right? With the current leveling progress, the fastest we can reach is level 10 before we go to sleep today and leave the novice village. Moreover, we should be able to find the passive skill of the rabbits in the future. The passive skill of the rabbits was described as the power granted by the Demon God, so it can’t only be given to the rabbits. There should be other monsters too. It would be better if we leave the novice village earlier. One step ahead and we will be ahead of others,” Wind-Blowing Wind Chimes advised.

“That’s right, leveling up first is the way to go,” Thousand Miles Riding Alone also advised him.

Zhang Shan was in a dilemma. Of course, he knew that the earlier he left the novice village, the greater the advantage. However, he was still unwilling to give up so easily. The main reason was that the rabbit’s passive skill was too amazing. Although there would be other opportunities in the future, what if the passive skill descriptions of different monsters differed? It was not that they could be added up and the effect would be doubled. After leaving the novice village, he would never be able to return any more. If he missed the opportunity, it would be gone.

After thinking for a long while, Zhang Shan still said, “I still want to give it a try. I’ll go and farm this afternoon. It’s fine if I can’t farm it after dinner. Anyway, I’m only level 5 now. There’s no experience penalty for killing level 2 rabbits. I’ll still get 100% experience. It’s just that it’s a little slower than killing high-level monsters to level up. It’s not a big problem.”

“Let’s go. You guys go farm the goats while I farm the rabbits. It won’t be that easy to level up to level 10. Leveling up from Level 9 to Level 10 is also a hurdle. It doesn’t matter if the leveling speed is delayed. I might be able to catch up if we farm together at night.” After saying that, Zhang Shan waved his hand and ran back to the novice village.

With the shoes, it was much faster now. In less than 10 minutes, he ran back to the novice village. He still had less than 4,000 bullets, one gold coin, 63 silver coins, and some copper coins. The main thing was that the boss gave him a gold coin, and he felt like a small landlord.

Spending 60 silver coins to buy 60,000 bullets was enough for him to use until he slept today. In any case, bullets could be stacked in his package without limit. No matter how many, as long as it was the same type of bullet, it would only take up one slot.

Looking at the durability of the equipment, it was still 10-10. There was no need to repair it. In the New World, only equipment that could tank damage would lose durability quickly. If they did not tank damage, they would not need to repair the equipment for a long time. Of course, if the character died, their durability would also drop rapidly.

After replenishing his bullets, he jogged all the way to the rabbit map. Sure enough, two to three hours ago, the rabbit map was still filled with bloody scenes. Now, there were not many people left. After all, the New World had already opened for more than five hours. As long as one was seriously farming monsters to level up, one would have become level 3 or 4. There was no need to farm rabbits anymore. Moreover, even if the rabbits dropped equipment, they would still be level 1. It was becoming less and less worthy.

Rabbits only had 150 hp. With Zhang Shan’s current attack power, he could farm one rabbit at most with three hits. If he used Heavy Strike, it would be instantly killed. He would gain 10 EXP for each rabbit. The leveling speed was not slower than when the three of them teamed up previously.

Of course, now that they had all updated their equipment, especially the ax that Thousand Miles Riding Alone was using, their leveling efficiency definitely would have increased in a straight line.

Adding on the time spent running around looking for monsters, on average, it would take less than 10 seconds to kill one rabbit. There would be 300 to 400 of them in an hour. Until nighttime, he would at most farm around 2,000 of them. Hopefully, his luck would explode.

Zhang Shan had transformed himself into a rabbit killer. He walked around the rabbit map in every corner. Rabbits fell one after another under his gun.

Slowly, he became popular in the novice village’s regional channel.

In the regional channel...

“Our novice village has a dumbass. He’s already level 6, and he’s still fighting with the low-level rabbit monsters.”

“He’s that great god, isn’t he? He’s the Hunter that blocked the boss.”

“God my ass! He only knows how to fight for monsters. I’m afraid that half of the rabbits have been killed by him alone. Didn’t I have something to do in the morning that delayed my leveling? I originally thought that it wouldn’t matter since all of you have leveled up and no one would fight for monsters with me, and I could happily farm monsters. Now, it’s great, that idiot has farmed all of them. Forget it, let’s go farm chicks.”

“Send a few experts over, kill that idiot, and send him back to his hometown.”

“Come on, who dares to casually PK now? The red names can’t even be removed. The ones with the red name previously are in big trouble.”

“That’s right, he’s a member of the Storm Guild. How would we, ordinary people, dare to casually provoke him?”

“He shouldn’t be a member of the Storm Guild, right? Look, the members of the Storm Guild aren’t bringing him around anymore. Otherwise, why would he be farming rabbits by himself?”

The novice village chat channel was in a frenzy. Zhang Shan did not know about it as he usually shut it down. Even if he knew, he would not take it seriously. He would not explain while he was focusing on farming.

Time slowly passed, and the sky outside gradually darkened. However, Zhang Shan’s anticipated passive skill still did not appear. He was in despair. What kind of probability was this? He could just say that he could obtain it after farming a million monsters. Wouldn’t that be even better? At least he would have a goal. Now, Zhang Shan no longer held any hope. He would just let it be. If he couldn’t get it, so be it.

After killing for an entire afternoon, it was not that Zhang Shan did not gain anything. At least, he had leveled up to level 8. This was because after level 7 if the character’s level was five levels higher than the monster’s, there would be a penalty for the experience. A rabbit would only give eight EXP, otherwise, he would have leveled up quite a bit.

He had also obtained quite a bit of equipment. Most of them were trash level 1 white-tier. Right now, most of them were probably not of interest to anyone. They were all items that were thrown into NPC shops. He had also obtained two level 1 green equipment. They were not of much worth anymore.

The most important reward was that Zhang Shan had obtained a skill book. It was used by his Hunter class.

Taming: level 1, there is a chance to tame an animal that has not been demonized and become a player’s pet; after taming, the pet’s attributes will be strengthened by 10%; cooldown time: 30 seconds; magic point consumption:30 points; class requirement: Hunter.

Zhang Shan did not know the value of this skill book. It should be said that he did not know what the drop rate was. Although this skill was very useful to Hunter.

However, in the game, the value of an item was never just based on its practicality. It was based on the combination of practicality and the drop rate. Only items that were rarely dropped were truly valuable.

Otherwise, no matter how amazing an item was, it would be useless if everyone had one.

Zhang Shan instantly learned Taming.

After reaching level 8, he had gained 21 points of agility. His attack power could be considered acceptable. However, although two pieces of equipment had been upgraded, they were not of much use. Two pieces of white-tier equipment would only increase a few points of defense. It was not helpful for him to farm monsters.

As for the accessories that increased attack power, he still lacked a necklace and a ring. The bracers were not used by the agility class. It was too difficult for him to farm equipment for his class. He still had to buy or exchange them with others, however, Zhang Shan did not want to waste time now. He would think about it in the future. In any case, it would not affect him much. He could not afford good equipment, and trash equipment was useless.

“Brother, how are you doing? Did you get any passive skills? I’m already level 9, but leveling up to level 10 from level 9 is too crazy. You actually need 100,000 EXP. I’m going to die,” Thousand Miles Riding Alone said to him.

“I didn’t make it. I don’t have any hope. After dinner, I’ll look for you guys. Do you want some trash white-tier equipment? Level 1.”

“Help bring some for Wind-Blowing Wind Chimes and me. The monsters here drop level 10 equipment, so we won’t be able to use it. Also, help Wind-Blowing Wind Chimes buy more little blue bottles. It’s a waste of her Lightning Induction Skill. There was no monster for her to use the skill. She can only use her mahogany sword to kill monsters, hehe.”

...

“Okay.”

“Help me buy one gold coin of little blue.” Wind-Blowing Wind Chimes said.

Although Zhang Shan did not farm the monsters with them, he did not leave the team. Instead, he still chatted with them using the team channel.

“Okay. Do you want me to help bring some supplies over to Storm of the World and others?”

“No thanks. My brother has the talent of regaining magic. Coupled with the magic power of the orange clothes, he doesn’t need much blue. If it’s not enough, I’ll give him some.”

“Okay, go offline and eat first.”
