Chapter 266: Chapter 128: Return of the Fierce Beast (Request for Monthly Ticket)_2

And willing to lead newbie players out for hunting.

But there are also arrogant newbie players who, upon entering the game, immediately get into conflicts with veteran players, only to find themselves stuck at the village entrance without a way out, forced to silently level up in the mining area.

Players each choose different development paths, starting their exploration of the Monster World.

Compared to players recruited in the mid-term, this batch of players has a much easier growth environment.

There are no powerful Blood Corpses blocking their way when they venture out, and even with their initial Life Soul Level, they can fight Curse Soldiers to a standstill.

Veteran players passing by find the newbies’ passion for exploration amusing, especially when they see a group of players surrounding a Curse Soldier, launching attacks while constantly shouting, as if they’re taking down a boss, finding it utterly inexplicable.

Veterans passing by sometimes help with a finishing blow, assisting the players.

But occasionally, the damage output is too high, directly stealing the kill, leading to the newbie players cursing angrily.

The arrival of new players has made the entire Emperor Tomb Mountain Range exceptionally lively.

At this moment, Emperor Tomb Mountain Range, Stormwave Lagoon.

The soil in the shrubs loosened, and a pair of large eyes appeared, cautiously examining the surroundings before looking up at the waning moon in the sky.

After a brief silence, the Qi Die suddenly leapt out of the bushes, raising its head to make an arrogant cry.

Then it flapped its wings and shot into the sky, with Wind Elements automatically converging, forming a cyan stream of light shooting toward the Ancient Battlefield.

Before long, the Qi Die appeared above the Ancient Battlefield area.

Its pupils suddenly contracted, zooming in on those players passionately engaged with the Curse Soldiers on the ground.

Its gaze wandered over different player silhouettes, finally locking onto one, then suddenly diving downward.

A player who had just killed a Curse Soldier and successfully leveled up to Level 2 was still cheering excitedly when he suddenly felt a pain at the back of his head, stumbled forward a few steps, and fell to the ground.

The bewildered newbie player turned to look and found a creature with a large, round head standing behind him. It had clean and full feathers, covered with a rapidly changing layer of colorful light under the moonlight, with the most striking feature being its pair of large, spiritual eyes.

At that moment, it raised its head arrogantly, looking down at him with an aggressive posture.

Seeing this, the newbie player decisively activated his analysis ability.

Discovering that it was a Source Monster with a Hunting Level of 16, he was so startled he shivered and immediately got up to run away.

A Hunting Level of 16 was clearly beyond his capacity to kill.

But after only a few steps, he heard the sound of flapping wings and excited chirping from behind him.

Then he was suddenly tackled to the ground by the oncoming force from behind, with a tempest of wings battering down on him.

"That’s it, I’m probably going to lose for the first time!"

Under the fierce assault of Qi Die, this player let out a wailing cry, resigning himself to his imminent return to Imperial Tomb Village.

But soon, he realized something was off.

For a monster with a Hunting Level of 16, it should easily kill him.

But the problem was he remained alive, and his health was depleting very slowly.

But... most importantly, it hurt! It really, really hurt.

Removing the hand covering his face, he saw that the Qi Die’s eyes were glowing, its expression extremely excited.

The Qi Die’s strange expression made the newbie player realize that this Source Monster didn’t seem intent on killing him; instead, it seemed to enjoy the process of torturing him.

"You jerk, I can’t bear this!"

Enraged, the player retaliates decisively, but his feeble fists can’t break through Qi Die’s impenetrable barrage of blows. He could only grit his teeth and silently vow that once his Life Soul Level increased, he would have his revenge!

...

Two days later.

A post in the forum sparked heated discussions among players.

[Newbie seeking help, veteran players, please assist me, I seem to have been targeted by something nasty, and I can’t escape it.]

I am a newbie player who recently got qualification to join the game, aiming to explore the Big World. I thought I’d level up a bit before pursuing this goal, but as soon as I stepped out and killed a Curse Soldier, I encountered a winged Source Monster called "Qi Die" that came over to pummel me relentlessly.

At first, I thought it was just bad luck encountering a boss-level monster, and it was normal to die.

But when I ventured out a second time, I was targeted by this thing again, swooping down to beat me up; fine, I’ll take the hit, but it kept chirping while hitting me, which pissed me off.

Although painful, I didn’t give it much thought and planned to be more careful next time.

But when I went out for the third time, I got beaten again. What’s going on? I asked a few friends, and none of them experienced this; why am I specifically targeted and beaten?

Subsequent outings also resulted in interceptions and beatings.

The biggest issue is that while Qi Die doesn’t reduce much health when hitting me, it hurts like hell; once I almost screamed myself hoarse in pain. Who’s the bastard who designed this monster? It’s too torturous.

I even discovered something terrifying.

This monster’s Hunting Level can actually grow; it’s now at Level 20, leveling up faster than I am.

Are there any veteran players who can help me? I can’t leave the Newbie Village like this, I feel like I’m being punished by the GM, but I haven’t done anything. There’s no reason for the GM to pick on me, it’s too much.

Dark Night Will Come: Hahaha, another one from Poetry and Beyond, you Scenery Faction players are really something. A few of you got beaten by Qi Die in the early days, and now a new batch of newbies has attracted Qi Die again.

Spiral to Heaven: I’m dying of laughter, dude don’t cry, some seniors had the exact same experience. As a Scenery Faction player, your Game Life is incomplete without being beaten by Qi Die.
