Chapter 8 - Chapter 8 mandatory task

Brutal Charge was a D+ rank attack skill. At this stage, players were at most two or three levels high. If they were to take the impact head-on, they would either die or be crippled.

Leng Yun and the others were completely shocked. Could such destructive power be done by humans?

Zhang Mu picked up the pistol, removed the magazine, and checked again. There were only five bullets left.

Fatty shouted,"Boss, there are a few who haven't died yet!"

A few hooligans were knocked out and spat out blood, but they did not die. They fell to the ground and struggled. When they saw Zhang Mu walking over without saying a word, they immediately knelt down and begged for mercy.

" We know we were wrong. Please forgive me."

"Don't kill me, I don't want to die!"

"Brother Hei forced us to do this!"

"..."

Zhang Mu ended their lives one by one, regardless of begging or cursing.

"They don't have the ability to resist." The tall and honest middle-aged man couldn't bear it and said," It's not good to kill them all. They're just subordinates…"

He said,"This is the evil of evil." After they recover, they will certainly continue to do evil, let alone bear a grudge against us, and there is no guarantee that they will not come back for revenge. This world has changed. Either don't do it or do it completely. Don't leave any hidden dangers behind."

Yesterday, these people were still law-abiding citizens, sitting in their own jobs and playing their own social roles. Killing people is really out of reach for them. No one is born to be an executioner. Everyone needs a process of ideological transformation. This is an era when human life is like grass. Without legal constraints, the ugliness of human nature will be vividly interpreted. Killing often does not need a reason. If you don't kill people, others will kill you. There is no need for compassion in troubled times, let alone compassion.

Get rid of all the bodies.

Fatty introduced them,"Let's get to know each other first. This wise and divine one is Boss Zhang Mu, nicknamed Wood!" Did you guys see the posts on the forums? That's right, that's what the wise and mighty boss said!"

The few of them were shocked. The short-haired girl shouted,"You're the one who posted the post. You're amazing!" So much information about monsters, where did you find it?"

Fatty was smug." That bit of information is nothing! If it wasn't for Boss, I would have died a long time ago. There will be plenty of benefits if I follow Boss in the future!"

"Can't you shut up?" Zhang Mu threw the monster manual to them." I'm a senior majoring in Chinese at Jiangcheng University."

The short-haired girl was surprised and happy: "I am also a Chinese department of Jiangda University. My name is Qin Min, and I am a freshman." I remember that you are a famous scholar in the department, Senior Zhang Mu!"

Leng Yun was flipping through the monster manual, and her surprise was even more apparent: "Are you the Chinese major student who wrote the horror suspense novel? I'm a second-year graduate student at Jianghai University's Medical College and I'm working at the affiliated hospital. My roommate and I have read your work!"

Zhang Mu had been writing suspense novels five years ago, and now he was quite famous. He was considered a celebrity in Jiang City University. Who can equate a talented young student with a cold-blooded killer who kills without blinking an eye?

Fatty exaggerated and shouted,"Boss is a mystery novelist? No wonder your IQ is higher than average! From now on, I will definitely follow your lead and follow you everywhere. I will kill all directions and unify the Jianghu!"

Zhang Mu could not be bothered with Fatty and asked the middle-aged man," What's your name?"

The middle-aged man said,"My name is Sun Bing. I'm a chef."

Zhang Mu is a student. Judging from his words and deeds, he does not look like a wicked person who cannot distinguish right from wrong. Only then did the fear of him lessen a little.

"Fatty, find something to eat."

"Yes, I'm starving."

Zhang Mu sat down and asked them about their skills.

Qin Min's class was Summoner, and Sun Bing's class was Knight.

Summoners were weak in the early stages because their attributes were too low and skill books were extremely rare. It was difficult to develop them in the early stages. However, once one learned a few powerful Summoning Spells, it would be difficult for people with similar equipment to defeat Summoners.

Knight was a profession whose defense was second only to Shield Warrior. Compared to Shield Warrior, who was known as the " King of Defense ", Knight had higher damage output ability and some status and recovery skills that could be learned. It was a very popular profession.

Zhang Mu asked again,"What are your initial skills?"

Qin Min's skill: [Communication LV1], F-rank skill, maximum LV3, communicates with weak creatures, consumes a certain amount of spirit, can control this animal, can control at most one, this skill has no cooldown.

Sun Bing's skill: [Taunt LV1], F grade + skill, max LV3, can anger monsters to attack oneself, monster attack +5%, defense-10%, lasts for at least 5 seconds, consumes 5 mana, skill cooldown 30 seconds.

The two of them did not obtain any outstanding skills, but fortunately, these two skills were one of the most practical F-rank skills.

Communication was originally a Hunter skill, mainly used for reconnaissance. It could communicate with birds and small beasts to find out the terrain and monster distribution nearby.

Taunt was originally the main skill of Shield Warriors and Knights. It was used to anger monsters so that they could attack themselves. This was an indispensable skill in team battles.

There were scouting, healing, pulling monsters, and damage output.

This was the basic composition of a combat squad!

Zhang Mu was very satisfied." Not bad!"

"Boss, I found something to eat!" Fatty had returned. Since it was a hotel, the food was not difficult to find. Most of them were lettuce and cold meat. In addition, there were a lot of alcohol, tobacco, and drinks. They were hungry. Who would be picky? As long as it's food!

Fatty ate two roast ducks, a few large plates of peanuts, and drank three bottles of beer before licking his lips. He took out a pack of Zhonghua and opened it, taking out a few cigarettes and handing them to Zhang Mu and Sun Bing." Boss, have a cigarette!"

"I don't smoke." Zhang Mu refused." I checked. There's water in the hotel toilet. Everyone, clean it up now."

The few of them were impressed by Zhang Mu's calm mind and ruthless methods, especially when they learned that he was the first blockhead to post on the forum. They admired Zhang Mu even more. Leng Yun and Qin Min were two women. Sun Bing was an honest cook. Fatty was loyal to Zhang Mu, who had saved him many times. Everyone regarded him as their leader.

Zhang Mu washed away the blood stains on his face and took a towel to simply wash his body.

After checking his backpack, he realized that the player's backpack could store items with attributes. Items without attributes were not allowed to be placed in it. The initial space of the backpack was five slots, and the gold coin column was counted separately. At this moment, the number of gold coins had increased to 523, which was a huge sum in the early stages.

As for the posts in the forum, they were deleted automatically because they were more than 6 hours old. However, the information brought enough wealth to help many people, destined to make him famous.

Zhang Mu wiped his face and walked out of the toilet. Leng Yun walked out of the ladies 'room opposite her and happened to see her face to face.

Both of them were stunned.

They saw a trace of surprise in each other's eyes.

Leng Yun's long hair was coiled up. She had a beautiful face. Her skin was soft and smooth, and her facial features were exquisite. Her beautiful eyes were especially blurry, leaving an indelible impression on others. About 1.68 meters tall, slender and full, there is a kind of Jiangnan woman gentle, like spring water as moving, but careful observation will find a strong female temperament, that is a kind of non-human incense, repelling people thousands of miles away cold.

Two completely different temperaments, perfectly kneaded together, created a beautiful woman with a weak appearance but a strong heart.

"I suddenly remembered." Zhang Mu pondered for a moment." Senior Leng Yun is a famous ice beauty in Jiang University. Even in different campuses, I've heard many rumors about you."

Leng Yun wasn't cold. Instead, she was very considerate and gentle. Because she had countless suitors, but no one had ever won her favor, she was given the title of " Iceberg Beauty ". Her heart was like an iceberg that couldn't melt. Leng Yun was a school belle. Sun Lin was the flower of the Chinese department. She was also quite a famous beauty. However, compared to Leng Yun, her appearance, figure, and temperament were inferior.

" Those things are just like everyone else's. It's too exaggerated. Don't believe it."

Leng Yun sized up Zhang Mu. He wasn't tall, only 1.78 meters tall. His facial features were very delicate, like a boy next door, giving people a warm and comfortable feeling. However, there was nothing outstanding about him. No one could compare this seemingly immature young man to a decisive cold-blooded warrior.

The two of them weren't familiar with each other, and they weren't good at words. Just as they didn't know what to say and made the atmosphere a little awkward, the system's emotionless voice sounded in their ears.

"Notification: Mission system activated! Mandatory quest has been issued. Please pay attention to the quest bar!"

----

Mission name: [Dawn Camp]

Difficulty: F+ difficulty.

[Nature: Mandatory mission]

[Content: According to the map prompt, arrive at Camp Dawn within 20 days.]

[Reward for success: 50 gold coins, followed by an F grade item.]

Penalty for failure: Annihilation!

----

When Leng Yun saw the mission, her expression changed." This mission…"

She remembered what Zhang Mu had said in the post.

Zhang Mu said: "Survival in this game is not so simple." If he didn't follow the system quest, he would only end up being killed. I'll go find the others. It's time to announce something."

Leng Yun looked at Zhang Mu's back. A trace of surprise flashed across her beautiful eyes. She had read Zhang Mu's monster manual. There was only information about monsters in it, and there was nothing else. How could Zhang Mu have predicted the arrival of the compulsory mission?

This person was definitely not simple!

The five gathered together.

Qin Min immediately asked," Senior Zhang Mu, what's going on with this mission?"

Qin Min had just finished cleaning up. She was far less stunning than Leng Yun, but her skin was fair and her facial features were also correct. If judged by the 100-point standard, she was almost a beauty in her 60s, basically reaching the standard of class beauty.

Zhang Mu said," The mission description is very detailed. We need to hurry to Dawn Camp. Open the map and you will see the location of Camp Dawn."

There was a map for the mission. Jiangcheng City was only a small part of the map, surrounded by forests. The places further away were gray, so one could not see the terrain or environment. There was a light spot in the darkness in the west, which was probably the location of Dawn Camp. The five of them were located in the western suburbs, and Dawn Camp was in the west. They didn't need to travel through the city and could go directly to the camp, so they had an advantage over the others.

Leng Yun frowned." The map provided with the mission is too vague. It only gives a rough direction."

Zhang Mu took out a huge scroll from his backpack and spread it out on the ground. He took out a flashlight and hit it on it." This is a map bought at a high price from a mysterious merchant."

This map was very detailed. The general terrain of the area and even the distribution of monsters in the area were all listed on it.

Qin Min looked at the map. Jiang City was only a small part of it." Blood Forest, Goblin Stronghold, Houndman Camp, Catman Cave…What strange place names!"

Zhang Mu pointed at the map and said," We have to pass through the Blood Forest. From the information on the map, the monsters in the Blood Forest are Level 1 to Level 10. This level range is very large, so it is quite dangerous." We don't have to rush into the forest. It's not too late to level up to Level 4 in two days."

The monsters in Jiang City were Level 1 to Level 3. Level 4 players who killed monsters here would lose a lot of EXP, and it would take a longer time to level up. The earlier one entered the camp, the better they would be able to grasp the advantage of early development. Zhang Mu, who had a lot of valuable information, did not want to waste precious time in the low-level monster area.
