Chapter Nineteen: Borrowing a Tiger's Power to Leave the Mountain

  Seeing the black-toothed fish rushing towards him, Xiao Yu's right hand dagger stabbed fiercely at the black-toothed fish's eyes, tearing open a wound, and a stream of stinking blood gushed out from the black-toothed fish's body.

  The black-toothed fish behind were stimulated by the fresh blood, and pounced on that black-toothed fish, rolling around in the water, as if they were tearing at the black-toothed fish that was injured by Xiao Yu.

  These ferocious predators made Xiao Yu's scalp numb, taking advantage of the black-toothed fish attacking their companions, Xiao Yu escaped at the fastest speed, jumped onto the water surface, climbed onto the riverbank, a black-toothed fish shot out from the water, almost biting Xiao Yu, and fell onto the riverbank.

  Seeing the black-toothed fish fall on the riverbank, jumping non-stop, Xiao Yu pounced on it and pressed the black-toothed fish firmly to death.

  "You think you can still run after getting on shore? You almost turned me into fish food, let's see how I'll deal with you." Xiao Yu's dagger pierced into the black-toothed fish's body, opening a long wound, and then he continuously attacked the black-toothed fish with his dagger, directly killing it.

  Hei Chi Yu gave Xiao Yu 32 copper coins, and after checking the experience, Hei Chi Yu's experience was quite substantial, more than the two Desert Man Snakes.

  Looked at the water, the water is really lively, black-toothed fish groups are tumbling up and down, still scrambling to eat the corpses of the black-toothed fish killed by Xiao Yu.

  This school of black-toothed fish was attracted by the bloody smell of that black-toothed fish killed by Xiao Yu, no wonder so many came over at once.

  Thinking of being chased by the black-toothed fish just now, Xiao Yuxin still had a lingering fear.

  There is still a treasure chest at the bottom of the water, and if it's gone like this, Xiao Yu will absolutely not be willing to give up. Looking at the surface of the water, the surface was like boiling, constantly bubbling with air bubbles. Now diving down is undoubtedly courting death, so we can only wait for the black-toothed fish group to pass before opening that treasure chest at the bottom of the water.

  I don't know if the treasure chest below is locked or not, I haven't learned how to pick locks yet, it would be frustrating if I ran into a locked one.

  "I don't know when this black-toothed fish group will leave." Xiao Yu remembered the location of the treasure chest and decided to go find other monsters to level up first, maybe by the time he came back, the black-toothed fish group would have swum away.

  Xiao Yu Gang stood up, intending to leave, but his gaze fell on the corpse of a black-toothed fish lying on the sandy ground, about the size of a person. His eyes lit up as he thought he had found a way to open the treasure chest. Since there were readily available materials, why not use them?

  Xiao Yu picked up the corpse of Hei Chi Yu and headed upstream towards the Dark Sacred Spring, walking about a hundred paces before throwing the body into the water. Then he quickly ran downstream.

  Back to the river where the treasure chest was found, waiting patiently, and sure enough, after these black-toothed fish ate the corpses of their companions at the bottom of the water, they sniffed out another bloody smell coming from elsewhere.

  The black carp swam upstream like a plague of locusts, leaving none behind.

  Seeing the black-toothed fish swim away, Xiao Yu's face revealed a happy smile.

  "I'm really a genius." Xiao Yu jumped into the water and swam towards the bottom, where those black-toothed fish stirred up the water, making it murky. After groping around at the bottom of the water for half a day, Xiao Yu finally found the location of the treasure chest.

  The treasure chest was not locked, and Xiao Yu opened it easily. He rummaged through the chest for a moment, and his heart skipped a beat as he felt an equipment inside. The treasure chest couldn't possibly only contain a white piece of equipment, Xiao Yu thought to himself.

  He picked up his equipment and Xiao Yu floated out of the water surface, crawling onto the riverbank.

  Took a look at the equipment just obtained.

  Black Wind Bracers: Quality, Green, Leather Armor. Defense 12-15, Agility +5, Strength +3. Requires Level 5.

  It's a pretty good green outfit, and it just so happens that I can use it myself. Xiao Yu was overjoyed and put on the Black Wind wrist guard.

  Looked at the dagger that Blacktooth Fish had exploded out earlier.

  Iron Short Sword: Attack 15-18.

  It was slightly better than the one given by his mentor, so Xiao Yu used this iron dagger to exchange for the one that his mentor Ode had given him.

  Xiao Yu's right hand moved, and the dagger in his right hand rotated a perfect arc above Xiao Yu's palm before landing steadily in the center of his palm.

  It's this feeling, the dagger dancing happily at his fingertips, Xiao Yu smiled slightly, and the consecutive harvests made Xiao Yu extremely excited.

  Xiao Yu discovered that since entering the game, his mental state had changed a lot. In real life, Xiao Yu was somewhat introverted and silent, and also had some inferiority complex, but in the game, Xiao Yu gradually found a sense of confidence, which was a very strange change.

  Xiao Yu Chao walked away into the distance, searching for the next monster.

  As the level gradually rose, Xiao Yu discovered that the upgrade was getting harder and harder. After taking a look at the level ranking list, the current highest level is seven levels, and his own experience value is 68% of level five, which is not far off.

  "The space bag only has twenty slots, it's too small." Xiao Yu looked at the almost full space bag and said with a gloomy tone. This space bag was originally equipped by the server as a spatial backpack, and on the market, a twenty-slot spatial backpack would cost a lot of gold coins. Each player could carry five spatial backpacks.

  I spent the whole afternoon brushing up on the wolf monsters in the monster area of the sixth-level desert, and by dusk when the sky was about to darken, Xiao Yu upgraded to level 6, and his Backstab and Bone Carving skills were also due for an upgrade.

  Xiao Yu Chao walked back to Tobacco Town from Xiao Yu Chao's place and returned to Tobacco Town.

  Went to ask the thief master Ode about the price of upgrading Backstab and Bone Carve skills, what made Xiao Yu a bit disappointed was that the price of upgrading these two skills was the same as the price of upgrading Reverse Backstab skill, which was five gold coins.

  "Where can I find ten gold coins? This server is too scamming, it's not letting people live." Xiao Yuxu thought gloomily, just the cost of upgrading skills was not something ordinary players could afford. He looked at his package and saw that he had accumulated a total of two gold coins from killing monsters so far.

  Mainly because Xiao Yu's Backstab, Bone Carve and Reverse Backstab skills have leveled up too quickly. Ordinary players can only upgrade these two skills when they reach level 10 or even level 20. At that time, the 15 gold coins are not a big deal for them. But for Xiao Yu who is only at level 6, it's a bit depressing. With a level of 6, where can he find so much money?

  It's raining, time to go home...
