Chapter Thirteen: Bloodthirsty Charge
"Your mine?" Ding Qiang was taken aback.
"Of course... " Lie Lie shook her head, and the fiery red hair on her head suddenly seemed to jump up like a flame: "I lured away a few zombies that appeared here, or else you think you could have made it here safely?"
Lie Lie saw the action of Ding Qiang collecting ore veins just now, and according to her idea, with such a high level of collection skills, it was impossible for combat occupations to be higher, so she said that.
"Hmm..." Looking at the white silver mine, although Ding Qiang was a bit disappointed, but it was just a small piece of ore, he wouldn't do anything despicable, so he nodded and said: "I see, I thought there were no monsters here. Since you discovered it first, go ahead and mine it."
"Huh...?" Hearing Ding Qiang say this, Lie Lie was taken aback. She had originally made preparations to PK, but didn't think that the opponent would so readily give up. This actually made her feel a bit embarrassed because of that one punch earlier.
"Thanks, I'm really sorry about that. I thought you were going to grab the ore, my apologies." Lie Lie scratched his head and said with some embarrassment.
"Ah, never mind, you were the one who discovered it first anyway." Ting Qiang shrugged and replied, this little girl had a fiery temper, but she was actually quite kind at heart.
However, after waiting for a while, he found that Lie Lie was standing still on the spot. Ding Qiang asked in confusion: "Why aren't you picking?"
"I... I'm sorry," he said with a hint of embarrassment. "I was waiting for a friend, she's a transfer miner, and I just lured the zombies away so that she could get in."
“……”
Lier was even more embarrassed on the side.
The atmosphere suddenly became somewhat awkward...
Fortunately, after a moment, the sound of conversation came, and then two girls walked out from around the corner.
"Xiao Ai, over here!" Lie Lie exclaimed excitedly, jumping up and down while waving his hand.
The girl called Xia Ai looked a bit older than Lie Lei, around 23 or 24 years old. Compared to the usually fake and childish Lie Lei, Xia Ai seemed like a normal girl. The other girl who came with her was called Feng Xue, and judging by her profession, she should be a thief, probably the one who escorted Xia Ai all the way here.
Seeing Ding Qiang standing next to the ore, the two girls looked at him curiously and then turned to look at Lie Lie tentatively.
"Uh, he's also a miner, just now...". Lie Lie's face turned red as he recalled hitting the other person for no reason earlier. He hastily said: "Don't ask so many questions, it'll be time for the zombies to respawn soon. Those zombies are really disgusting, I had a hard time luring them away. You guys hurry up and mine."
"Oh..." Xia Ai shuddered at the words, clearly repulsed by zombies in her heart, and quickly took out a pickaxe to dig through.
Boom!
Failure.
Boom!
Failure.
Boom!
Failure.
……
Standing beside Xia Ai as she mined, Ding Qiang felt his mood fluctuating with hers. He had already figured out that Xia Ai's mining level wasn't very high and was likely just barely meeting the minimum requirement to mine in the White Silver Mine. Although it was possible for her to succeed, a more likely outcome was that one wrong swing of her pickaxe would destroy the entire vein.
However, Xiao Ai's luck was clearly good, and after failing five times in a row, the ore vein still hadn't been destroyed.
It's just a matter of time before the vein is destroyed with this mining method.
Failed again, even Lie Lie felt something was off: "Xiao Ai, you...you shouldn't be lacking in level, right?"
"What level? What level?" Xiao Ai asked dazedly.
"Wow, mining level."
"Is there a level for mining too?" Xiao Ai asked in confusion: "Isn't it that once you learn mining, you can mine any ore?"
“……”
He paused for a moment, then asked tentatively: "How about I give it a try?"
He didn't dare let Xiao Ai try again. This white silver mine was related to a transfer task, and once it was destroyed, there would be no regrets.
"Are you?" Lie Lie hesitated and looked at him: "Is your skill level enough?" This piece of white silver ore is crucial, so she can't help but be cautious. Otherwise, she wouldn't have attacked Ding Qiang while he was mining again.
"It should be fine." In fact, Ding Chiang really wanted to say that if he couldn't make it himself, then at this stage, there probably wouldn't be anyone else in the game who could.
Watching Xia'ai lose hope, Lie Lie could only nod in agreement: "Alright then, but let's make one thing clear, once this ore is mined out, you have to sell it to us for two blocks."
"Oh, no problem." Ding Qiang walked forward and took out a manuscript, asking casually: "Just two pieces? Doing a task?"
"Hmm." Lie Lei responded casually, then suddenly looked stunned: "How did you know?"
"Oh, I also received that task." Ding Qiang said casually. The departure of the village's child, the player's formal transfer task, has two options in the first step: one is to pay 100 wild boar teeth to help the village solve the danger, and the other is to pay two pieces of white silver ore to make a small cannon platform for the village, once and for all solving the village's danger.
I didn't expect someone to accomplish this task so quickly.
The second task is simple and straightforward, but white silver ore isn't that easy to find, so in the end many people still chose the first task, it's just that the time...
Ding Qiang returned, but Lie Lie obviously didn't take it seriously and just pursed her lips without saying another word.
You've also received it, and you're about to reach level 10? Who are you trying to deceive with your big miner boasts?
Ding Qiang has been promoted to intermediate miner, and some white silver ore is naturally not a problem. Finally, he burst out with great fortune, striking twice in a row, causing the white silver ore to double, and even bursting out two pieces of jadeite, making him secretly pleased.
The transaction gave Lie two pieces, and Xiao Yatou was generous, directly throwing ten gold coins up, apparently not short of money.
After the transaction, Ding Qiang immediately left the cave and rushed towards the village.
……
"On the way out, Lie Lie complained: 'You dead girl, didn't you swear that you could mine white silver? Fortunately, we met this guy this time, otherwise, it would have delayed Big Sister and Second Sister's leveling up. Let's see how you get out of this.'"
"Hehe......" She stuck out her tongue and Xiaoyi was still a bit confused: "Why can't I mine white silver ore even though I've learned mining?"
This girl is still confused...
Back in the village, Lie Lie mailed out two pieces of ore and briefly explained what had just happened.
A moment later, a message replied: "His mining skills are higher than Xiao Ai's?"
To know, Xiao Ai is confused, but when it comes to practicing skills, she never slacks off. The white silver ore that she couldn't mine was mined by the other party with just one swing of their pickaxe, and their mining level was clearly not low either.
"Uh-huh."
"Remember his name, we might need to ask for his help when we're forging ahead in the future!"
"Hmm..."
……
After returning to the village, after completing the task of killing the Wild Boar King at the guardian, with a burst of white light falling, Ding Qiang's level finally rose to the top level of the newcomer village - level 10.
"Brave young man, this book was one I obtained during my youthful struggles. After pondering it for so many years, I still haven't grasped its meaning. Now, I'm passing it on to you, hoping that you'll be able to understand its significance."
"System Prompt: Congratulations, you have obtained [Bloodthirsty Charge]."
"My god, cool! I actually got a skill book......" Ding Qiang was overjoyed in his heart.
Just then, before Ding Qiang could finish his song, the entire system went into red alert...
"System Prompt: The heavens reward diligence, player Nangong Xiaoyue successfully changed jobs to become a Mage, becoming the server's first player to change jobs. Received system reward of 5,000 experience points, received system reward of 50 gold coins! Received system reward of 5,000 reputation points in all major cities!"
"System Prompt: Newbie Bridge is now open."
"System Prompt: Professional Skills System Opened."
"System Prompt: Major City Teleportation Now Open."
"More surprises await your discovery."
"What?" Ding Qiang was stunned on the spot.
This time, the system flashed red, leaving Ding Qiang standing still for a full minute without moving.
He wasn't stunned because he was feeling depressed about his slow job change, although he had a lot of experience, but after all, he was single and just got forced offline by that guardian, wasting so much time.
Ding Qiang was stunned, because he clearly remembered that in the previous life, the first person to change jobs on the entire server was an archer named "Yun Xiang", not Nan Gong Xiao Yue who was just announced by the system.
"Could it be that because of his own relationship, the progress of this life's game has already been altered?" Standing in place, Ding Qiang couldn't help but think, thinking about it again and again, only this explanation made sense.
Ding Qiang immediately thought of the two white silver mines he had just sold to Lie Lie...
"Good job!" Ding Qiang exclaimed.
"Huh?" Lilei sent over a question mark.
"Is that Nan Gong Xiao Yue one of yours?" If he didn't get a clear answer to this question, Ding Qiang wouldn't be able to sleep soundly.
Liu Liu hesitated for a moment when she saw Ding Qiang's question, then turned her head to ask San Jie who was standing beside her: "San Jie, that little rascal asked me if Nan Gong Xiao Yue is my older sister..."
"Tell him, it's no big deal. He can already excavate the White Silver Mine at such a young age, who knows, maybe there will be opportunities for cooperation in the future, and he'll find out about my identity anyway. Go ahead and tell him."
"Hmm." Lie Lei responded with a single sound, and immediately replied: "Hehe, you guessed it......"
"As expected..." With a silent sigh, Ding Qiang couldn't help but feel a hint of caution in his heart. Compared to others, he had an extra lifetime of memories, which meant the course of this game had already been altered. It seemed that from now on, he needed to be more careful, lest some changes occurred somewhere and he still didn't know, foolishly following the memories of his past life.
The village chief's departure task was also a job transfer task. Although Nangong Xiaoyue had left the newbie village after reaching level 10, Ding Qiang's 16th village still didn't have anyone to take over the task. As a result, due to no one competing for the task monster, after handing over the White Silver Mine, Ding Qiang completed the job transfer task in less than half an hour.
After reaching level 10, Ding Zhuang's equipment and weapons were upgraded, and his personal attributes were once again greatly improved.

Just as Ding Qiang reached level 10 and completed his task, preparing to return to the village to hand it in, something else happened.
"My god, you guys shouldn't be called the Overbearing Family, but rather the Dog Skin Plaster..."
Outside the village, looking at the row of players in front of him with their names above their heads, Ding Qiang felt a bit overwhelmed.
Blocking his way back to the village were none other than the arrogant dumpling gang, only this time they had many more people with them, at least twenty or so.
