Chapter 21: East Cloud Mountain Valley

  "It seems this cheap person has forgotten their classmates are not only cheap but also a bit stupid."

  Li Yi snapped his fingers and instantly mastered the "Refined Steel Arrow Forging Technique".

  ……

  "You're too strong, a tattered book actually sold for 2 gold coins, I underestimated you."

  "Yeah, I was going to throw it away, but that cheap head picked it up and said this thing can be sold for money, haha, that cheap head is indeed a master."

  "You guys are far off, learn slowly." The cheap person forgot to check the 2 gold coins in his bag, and was delighted in his heart.

  ……

  The materials for making fine steel arrows are very ordinary, and can be made with finished fine steel plus some feathers.

  Li Yi spent 10 gold coins buying materials for a batch of fine steel arrows before leaving with satisfaction.

  He didn't return to the Aeolian Forest but instead went to find the archery skill instructor in Broken Frost City. He was already level 16, it was time to learn new archery skills.

  "Is Lena all right? That child, I haven't seen her in many years."

  The archer skill instructor Rao had a weathered face, his rugged appearance made people know at a glance that he was a man with stories.

  "Reyna mentor asked me to bring her greetings to you."

  Although his opponent was an NPC, Li Yi did not show any signs of slacking off, because he knew that many players who were careless with their words had suffered greatly at the hands of NPCs.

  The affinity between players and NPCs is difficult to improve, but it's much easier to decrease than taking a plane.

  "Haha, young man, what brings you to me?"

  Lao Shuanglang smiled and a transparent virtual panel appeared in front of Li Yi, displaying the bow skills he could learn.

  The skills taught by the instructor are very monotonous, but the price is extremely expensive.

  Apart from the three basic skills "Chain Shot", "Thorn Trap" and "Pet Control", there are only two other skills to choose from.

  "Shock and Awe"

  The arrow shot has a chance to slow down the target by 50%, skill cooldown time, 2 minutes.

  "Fatal Shot"

  Aim at the opponent's weakness and fire, increasing burst rate by 1%, skill cooldown time, 2 minutes.

  Both skills are pretty good, 20 gold coins to learn one, Li Yi is not short of money, skill points are also sufficient, now both skills have been learned, and also learned "Linked Arrow Technique" and "Thorny Trap".

  He spent 4 skill points and still had 3 remaining. Li Yi didn't even think about it, and added the remaining points to "Linked Arrow Technique".

  Pet Mastery Level 1

  Shockwave Strike Level 1

  Harmful shooting level 1

  Thorny Trap Level 1

  Chain Arrow Technique 4th level (deals 125% attack power damage)

  System Prompt: After Laotie's careful guidance, your skills have been strengthened again.

  "I'd like to ask you something about archery."

  "Archery!" A hint of surprise flashed across Rao's eyes.

  Lao sighed: "Young man, I'm just an archery instructor, but I don't know how to make arrows."

  Li Yi took out the arrow he had made himself and handed it to Rao for inspection.

  Lao shook his head and continued muttering nonsense to himself.

  Li Yi took out the latest batch of fine steel arrows and Lao shook his head again.

  When Li Yi took out the 'Ice Arrow' and 'Flame Arrow' that Laina gave him, Rao's eyes suddenly lit up.

  "This... this is the arrow I gave to Rena, how did it end up in your hands?"

  "Please use these arrows on the right path, I don't want to see... this arrow stained with the blood of our compatriots."

  Lao Zhao solemnly returned the arrow to Li Yi.

  Is it done?

  Li Yi was shocked and speechless, and that depressing feeling was beyond words.

  The bowman profession's trigger task flow he all knows, but the problem is that there exists a strange probability issue inside.

  The probability of Rena triggering "Craft Arrows" and "Gifted Arrow" are 1% and 0.01%, respectively.

  With such a small probability, Li Yi triggered it repeatedly and successfully completed the most critical step of the trigger task.

  But he didn't expect that he would hit a snag in 'Lao'.

  To trigger Rao's dialogue about 'Intermediate Arrow Crafting', a prerequisite is that you must have successfully triggered an event at Lenna once, and the probability of triggering it here with Rao is 10%.

  One event is 10%, two events are 20%, such a high probability, but none of them triggered the follow-up...

  Many people fail to trigger the first event and therefore cannot proceed with subsequent events.

  "Teacher, do you know this thing?"

  Li Yi took out the "Flame Arrow Forging Book".

  "Flaming Arrow Forging Book!"

  Lao exclaimed and snatched it over, focusing his attention on it.

  "It's indeed... it's indeed... the manual for crafting Flame Arrows!" Rao muttered to himself for a few moments before reluctantly returning the forging book to Li Yi.

  "Young man, this is indeed the Flame Arrow Forging Book. But can you actually forge a Flame Arrow?"

  Li Yi shook his head, but in his heart he was secretly delighted. Luo's expression was exactly what he wanted to see, as it meant that the professional task had been successfully triggered.

  Lao smiled slightly: "If you can go to the Dongyun Mountain Valley and hunt down 1,000 black wolves, and get their wolf teeth for me, maybe... I'll tell you something about the Flame Arrows."

  System Prompt: Do you accept the quest "Hunt Down Black Wolf"?

  Got it!

  ……

  Not far from Aeolian Forest, under a high mountain, is Dongyun Valley.

  Dongyun Valley only has one type of monster, black wolves, ranging from level 10 to level 20, with low-level and high-level wolves mixed together, extremely frustrating.

  Black wolves have strong attack power, low health, and are a roaming type of monster. They are suitable for small teams with relatively low equipment to level up here. Of course, due to the black wolf's low health, they still attract many professions that can attack from a distance, such as mages and archers, to come here and solo grind.

  The howling and killing sounds rose together, this is Dongyun Mountain Valley, a treasure land for leveling up.

  "Pay 5 silver coins to enter the valley, otherwise get out of here."

  The villain stood at the intersection of Dongyun Mountain Valley Road, with his twenty-odd subordinates behind him.

  Apart from being a cheap person, he had already killed off more than twenty of his subordinates' names.

  At least half of the Huashan Gang members are leveling up in the East Cloud Valley, and with more people around, there are naturally fewer monsters. This is also why the cheap person forgot why they were guarding the valley entrance.

  "Is your family running Dongyun Mountain? Get out."

  A burly man with a round face and thick eyebrows scowled and cursed loudly.

  "My old man is not a ball and won't roll."

  The villain forgot a single command, and more than 20 big red names rushed up at once, instantly knocking the werewolf to the ground.

  "Did you all see that? This is what happens when you pretend to be something you're not!" The despicable person shouted loudly with an air of superiority.

  This kid actually knows how to play the "Knock on the Mountain and Shock the Tiger" trick.

  Whoosh!

  At this moment, a cold arrow flew in from nowhere and shot into the palm of a big red name under the hand of a cheap person.

  －130

  Blast off!

  One-second kill!

  The scoundrel's face changed color, just about to burst into a loud curse, another arrow flew in, nailed to his head, followed by one after another arrows flying from different directions, each hitting his head.

  －79

  －60

  －120

  The despicable person was a bit panicked, running east and west, front and back, left and right, but the blood bar on his head continued to decrease. With a flash of white light on his body, the despicable person fell to the ground with exhaustion...
