Chapter 53: The New Generation's PK Master

  Looking at Ding Bin's gaze, Ding Qiang scratched his head and gave a half-true, half-false answer: "I haven't played it yet, but I have a classmate who has, and whenever he talks about how great the game is, I wonder if it's really that fun?"

  "Haha, you're asking the right person now." Ding Bin suddenly gained energy, jumped up from his chair and ignored the news about the first kill. He quickly ran to the bed, sat down in front of Ding Qiang and said: "I'm telling you, this game is really interesting..."

  "This game is divided into four ethnic groups, humans, seven professions: warriors, mages, thieves, hunters, pastors, paladins, summoners, and various life professions..."

  "In these professions, the most formidable one in my opinion is the Elf Thief. Elves are naturally stealthy and after their concealment skill is maxed out, no one can see them..."

  "But the Lich Mage is also quite powerful, with a 5% increase in dark magic damage from birth... later on, it should be able to one-shot people..."

  "Actually, I think human pastors are the most powerful..." Looking at Ding Qiang's puzzled expression, Ding Bin smiled with ill intentions: "Their chests are the biggest..."

  "Depend on..." Ding Qiang was speechless for a moment, but had to admit that although the other person's words were all wrong except for the classification of game races and professions, this last point was actually not wrong.

  Among the four major occupations in the game, although each race has a priest, the racial characteristics of the beastman are that men and women are not distinguished. The chest of female beastmen looks more like two muscle lumps. Elves have slender physiques, considering overall appearance, even if game staff have elf fetishes, they can't help but reluctantly give up on them.

  As for the undead... Do you still expect a pile of skin and bones to show off its curves?

  Looking at Ding Qiang's speechless appearance, Ding Bin was even more pleased with himself, speaking fluently and gesticulating wildly as he spoke with great enthusiasm. Meanwhile, Ding Qiang cooperated very well, silently listening and occasionally asking a few seemingly foolish questions to play along.

  At this time, the miracle for him was more like a job than a game, and the role he played in the game was more like a mercenary who completed a certain task rather than a player.

  There's no way, the current version of the game is already an old version for Ding Qiang, and it's likely that only after several updates to the game, and when those familiar old opponents slowly appear again, will he rekindle his high morale.

  Although basically everything he said Ding Qiang already knew, and there were quite a few mistakes, but precisely because of his overly thorough understanding of the game, God's Trace was no longer as attractive to him as it was to others.

  At this time, following a player who is in contact with the game of miracles for the first time to watch their familiar game world, it's really interesting.

  "What if a mage inside uses a skill called Ice Ring? What would you do?" Ding Bin asked.

  "What should we do?" Ding Qiang looked like a obedient student, furrowing his brow, and after a moment responded: "The ice ring has distance limitations, at this time we should try to pull open the distance..."

  "Haha, got it wrong, I'll tell you a good method today, remember when you play the game later." Ding Bao said with satisfaction: "If you observe carefully, you will find that the ice ring is spreading from the center outwards. So when you see the mage release the ice ring and see the ice ring spread to your feet, just jump up and it's fine."

  "What......" Ding Qiang was suddenly stunned.

  "Haha, how's that? Got a new perspective now?" Ding Bin asked again: "If you saw a warrior in the wilderness, what would you do?"

  "Warrior?" Ding Qiang thought to himself that this was familiar, but just as he was about to respond, another question occurred to him: "What kind of profession encounters warriors?"

  "What profession is different?" Ding Bin said in a daze.

  "Of course, different professions have different ways of fighting warriors, and even the same profession has different ways of dealing with warriors with different equipment." Ding Qiang's unconscious high-hand disease broke out again.

  "Cut the nonsense, it's not that complicated. Any profession can easily defeat a warrior, let's just say you're a thief. What would you do if you encountered a warrior in the wilderness?" Ding Bin interrupted Ding Qiang's words.

  "That should sneak first, then..."

  "You can't sneak up on him, he's already found you and then charged at you." Ding Bin interrupted him again.

  "Can't sneak, and was rushed?" After some thought, Ding Qiang shook his head in his mind: "That's too much bad luck." At this stage, no thief has learned the high-level disappearance and control skills that can be used in combat state to blind and defend against opponents with higher defense and stronger attacks, and less blood volume, and was also taken by surprise. In this situation, it is very difficult to win...

  Although Ding Qiang was confident that he could dodge his opponent's charge with subtle movements, he didn't think everyone had this ability.

  "Hah, you don't even know that." Ding Bin said with a pleased tone: "When the warrior charges at you, as long as you turn your body around, your character won't be stunned. Then you can exchange blows with him."

  Ding Qiang felt that all his internal organs were bleeding... Looking at Ding Bin's smug expression, he couldn't help but say: "That bandit can't even withstand a warrior's frontal chop."

  "Ha, an inch short is an inch of danger. Aren't a warrior's weapons long? And aren't a thief's weapons short? When you're chopping, get close to the warrior, and after the warrior finishes one chop, the speed at which they swing their weapon again will slow down, giving you a great advantage..."

  "Where did you learn all this nonsense?" Ding Qiang couldn't help but ask.

  "What's the point of calling it a mess?" Ding Bin said displeased: "These are all real combat experiences, you must remember them, and when you enter the game, you will have a great advantage over others."

  "If that's the case, as you said, warriors have long weapons and thieves have short ones. What if the warrior uses his long weapon to keep a distance from the thief, so that they're always at a range where he can hit the thief but the thief can't hit him? How do you counter that?" Ding Qiang couldn't help but interject.

  "Ding Bin's eyebrows furrowed at once..."

  “……”

  What Ding Qiang didn't expect was that his casual assumption had stumped Ding Bin, who remained deep in thought with furrowed brows even after the whole family had finished dinner and was getting ready to leave.

  "Xiao Qiang, you've raised a very good question. I've never thought about this before." Looking at Ding Qiang, Ding Bin said seriously: "Wait for me to go back and think it over carefully, then I'll tell you. Otherwise, if we really encounter such a formidable warrior, it might be difficult to handle..."

  Ding Qiang had no strength left to explain anything anymore.

  Because he had a bit of wine at noon, Ding Qiang's father went back to his room to sleep immediately after sending away his uncle's family. After cleaning up the table and other things with Ding Qiang's help, Ding Qiang's mother also went back to her room to rest.

  Ding Qiang didn't return to his room until he had cleaned up both the living room and kitchen.

  "What's going on in the game now?" Looking at the familiar login interface, Ding Qiang couldn't help but think to himself.

  ……

  The field of vision changed from bright to dark and then back to bright again. When the field of vision recovered once more, Ding Qiang had already entered the game.

  Because the last time was directly offline in the Flame Land, and during his offline period, the team had already disbanded. So when he logged on again, he appeared directly at the entrance of the Flame Land instance.

  Just as he went online, a fireball came flying towards him.

  "Boom!"

  "System Prompt: Player Huo Qiu Emperor's Fireball Technique has dealt 204 points of damage to you. You are now in a state of legitimate self-defense."

  "PK?" The two words instantly flashed into Ding Qiang's mind.

  As for PK, Ding Qiang's attitude was not proactive, but also fearless. As soon as he saw the name of an opposing mage turn red, Ding Qiang grasped the Sindorei war blade in his hand and charged forward with a swift movement.

  Just as the sword in his hand was about to chop down, he saw the mage in front of him with a very funny posture, half squatting and raising both hands: "Hey, buddy, misunderstanding, misunderstanding, don't fight, don't fight, ah..."

  Looking at the giant sword that had stopped right next to his cheek, the mage finally let out a long sigh of relief.

  " Misunderstanding?" Ding Qiang was slightly stunned.

  "Just now, a few people in the copy blacked me for an equipment. I'm waiting for them here." Ding Qiang stopped attacking and the mage stood up straight, indignantly saying: "There's another mage in our team, we agreed to split the equipment two people one piece each. The first piece that guy took, the second piece was supposed to be mine, but unexpectedly those four were together, seeing this piece is better than the previous one, they immediately turned against me and kicked me out of the team, then gave the equipment to that mage."

  "I thought it was those guys coming out after finishing the instance, but instead a white light flashed by." The mage said indignantly: "How dare they deceive me, I'll keep an eye on them."

  "You alone... guard the four of them?" Ding Qiang asked in a daze.

  A copy of the Flame Land has a small sub-copy of the Flame Trial Land. If it's a team, enter the Flame Land; if it's a party, enter the Flame Trial Land. Like the black equipment that Fire Law Emperor mentioned, it basically only appears in the small sub-copy.

  "Hah, no problem, easy as can be." Huo Fa Emperor replied.

  "Alright, you stay then, I have something else to attend to, I'll go first." Ding Qiang turned his head and was about to leave.

  "Brother, don't you see?" Huo Fa asked with some disappointment.

  "Uh... never mind, I'm afraid of being misunderstood by you guys." Ding Qiang replied with a shrug.

  "Oh..."

  ……

  The reason why I didn't stay here to watch the excitement, apart from not wanting to waste time, is that there's another reason.

  That's the task Ding Qiang received from the Sword Saint Lantis... it's already been completed.

  "Absorb the souls of the monsters you've killed, gather 1000 and come back to see me..."

  Soul collection is a passive skill, as long as the monsters killed by Ding Qiang can provide him with experience, the system defaults that he has absorbed the monster's soul with the Soul Bottle, and after this period of leveling up and running instances, the number of one thousand has been reached...

  Farewell to Flame Emperor, opening the map, Ding Qiang quickly rushed towards the coordinates of Sword Saint Lantis...
