Lost Temple Chapter 4

Before Edit

Depart from the Demon's dark areas, Black Mark opens his arms and embraces his first real sun. Twilight Town is the first town after leaving the Demon's Novice Village. It is bordered by the land of the Human Clan, but it is still the Demon's NPC land. The store also sells some special products of the Demon clan, so it will attract players of other races to visit. Because the Demon players are very few, there is no need to worry about robbery. Therefore, there will be many players who have rushed here to level up.

After out of the transmission array, Black Mark received a prompt from the system, saying there is a message. I just started playing this game, my friend has not even yet reached half level, who will send a message to me? When he's in doubt, it turned out to be the owner of the grocery store, saying that he has to handed over the materials of the collected rabbit teeth and skin to his brothers who opened the store in the town.

Seeing the scenery of the town along the way, Black Mark strolled on the street slowly, the grocery owner's brother's shop opened in a prominent position in the town. He quickly found the shop and the collected material was handed over to the fat boss standing at the counter along with a parchment list. Comparing the goods with the list, the boss who has profit-seeking-face was very happy and took out the last five silver coins to pay him. Receiving the money rewarded by the mission, Black Mark sold all the pieces of the material he collected during the mission in the desert to the store owner. After all, his power is limited, and carrying such a pack of things for a while will probably affect his speed. He felt the backpack is quite light then he added a lot of feather arrows and food. Black Mark blew a whistle happily, carrying a short bow out of the town to go to fight and level up.

Most of the monsters around the Twilight Town are as aggressive as the wolf. There's a spider run chasing after him like the wolves, Black Mark is sitting breathless on the roadside, what kind of garbage skills do you have!

The archer's skill did not learn anything other than "aiming". In addition to a "song of courage", a "primary cure" and an "easy element control", the bard did not have any attack skills. The task of the novice village temple only rewards the experience and does not teach the skills. Although he has gone to tenth level now, his skill level is still at the first level… neither attacking nor defense, no HP, except for himself. He doesn't know anything other than the life skills he has learned. How can he mix those skills later?

Wait, understanding the skills! Suddenly, there is a flash of light in Black Mark's head. There is no place to learn the skills. Shouldn't you learn to understand it by yourself? With the good luck of previous understanding-of-life skills, it is estimated that creating several combat skills should not be difficult.

Open the skill bar, look left and right, the skill with the potential to attack is only the Bard's skill "easy element control". Pulled out the silver harp, Black Mark starts to try to gather the magic elements in the air, it's more than two hours to learn by himself, and he finally succeeded in condensing a small fireball at his fingertips. When he was ecstatic to try to test the power of the fireball, he was disappointed to find that the thing that took two hours of practicing was no bigger than a lighter.

The fireball thrown out by him dangled on the gra.s.s half a meter away, after burning a small piece of turf, a smack of green smoke emerged, and it was extinguished…

Sure enough, it is “easy magic control”! This magic is really “easy”! It is estimated that aside from lighting or firing, other things can't be used? Black Mark unwillingly try another magics. They are all similar to this little fireball. The water element summoned a small water column, no matter how you see it can not be used other than washing your hands. The wind magic creates a small breeze…. well, it can be used as a fan when the weather is hot. +。+ The earth element has summoned a small stone. This is completely waste magic. The stones are all over the mountains, why should it summoned with wasteful magic.

The four series of magic were used back and forth, and Black Mark's discovery was completely unprofitable. Look at the MP that has been bottomed out because of the experiment, he simply put the harp on the ground as a pillow, his body fell backwards and lay on the gra.s.s. It's not useful to blindly use the energy. It's better to relax first. He lay on the ground with his harp, playing with a feather arrow drawn from the quiver and squinting his idle rest.

Perhaps relaxing the spirit is really good for solving the problem, lying for about an hour, a bold idea slowly formed in his mind. Jumping from the ground, Black Mark put the feather arrow in the hand in front of him, picking up the white harp and starting to gather the magic again. Thanks to the combined efforts, this time he spent less time collecting magic than before. This time he did not let the elements gather in his hands, instead it's attached to the feather arrow in front of him by mind control. A ray of light flashed, the color of the feather arrow in front of him turned into a whole stone gray. Don't know if his mind control succeeded. Black Mark picked up the feather arrow and observed it carefully. It was found that aside from the color changed it's also a little heavier than before.

Did i succeed? Putting down the harp in his hand, he placed the feather arrow which has attached the earth elements magic to the patrol short bow, aiming at a tree not far away from him.

The system prompt sounds in his ear: “Congratulations to player Black Mark had understood the combat skill elemental arrow”

Successful! It seems that my idea is correct! I can't see the tree that I used as a target in the distance. The surprise in his heart has doubled. The earth elemental arrow can actually pierce the trunk of a tree! This kind of great lethality is absolutely impossible for ordinary feather arrows to do! Confirm the success of his theory. Black Mark sat down, and "dah" slammed all the feather arrows in the quiver to the ground, he picked up the harp and began to concentrate on creating the elemental arrows.

The experiments show that the fire element as the fourth magic is the most horrible. The earth elemental arrow has the strongest penetrating power. The wind element has the fastest speed, which is basically three times of the ordinary feather arrow's flying speed. The most potential is the water elemental arrow. Although the water element seems to be the least useful, the ice elemental arrow derived from it can slow down the enemy's attack and movement speed. In this way, the ice elemental arrow match with his own bad movement speed, but only used in special circ.u.mstances, otherwise he is absolutely sure to shoot them before the monsters approach himself!

Hahaha! I finally got my head out! Black Mark look up and laugh three times, grabbing the patrol short bow, “hey Spiders, Laozi came to repay the revenge of an arrow!”

‘shoo!' A fire elemental arrow flies off to the last dying spider in a second, Black Mark went to the body that turned upside down on the ground to see the rewards, the animal monster will not carry coins, at most it is the part of the body, such as spider silk, spider eggs, etc., Black Mark leaned over and picked up two rolls of spider silk and put it in his backpack. Although it was identified as a tailoring product, he still does not have sewing skills. The role of this things is to keep in the store for money. After searching for the corpse, he just wanted to find the next target. Suddenly, there was a crisp sound. It was when he picked up the item, he accidentally touched the body of the spider, and a broken leg was dropped onto his hand.

“Crispy spider legs, food, there is also a small line below, ‘It tastes not bad~'”
"Ding" The system prompts sounded: "Congratulations to the player Black Mark to comprehend the cooking skills and gain 1 proficiency."
… holding the burnt spider legs, Black Mark is completely speechless, is this the legendary RPWT*? People who wants to learn can't learn the skills by themselves, but one after another, with the fire elemental arrow can understand cooking skill?

*RPWT: RenPinWenTi :人品问题 = character's point*

Satiety in Lost Temple is also has variable value that is as important as HP and MP. The total amount of satiety is 100. If you reach 100 and continue to eat, the character will have a bad reaction such as slow movement. When the satiety is 60, the character will be hungry, but it will not affect the physical state. When the satiety is 40, the character will be less power, the attacking power will be weakened. When the satiety is 20, the character will be difficult to move. If the satiety is below 10, the mobility will be lost. If the satiety is zero, then congratulations. You are starving to death.

Therefore, the concept of the food also plays a pivotal role in the game, but ordinary NPC only sells a small variety of foods and tastes bad, just like the black bread that Black Mark bought in the novice village for five copper coins, the taste is a little better than the stone. Delicious food is generally sold in limited quant.i.ties and the price is very expensive, the average player can not afford to buy.

When Black Mark just came out of the town, he bought 20 apples in the store. The taste of the fruit is not bad but the growth of the satiety is slow, and an apple only grows for two points. However to think of the disgusting black lacquered food in the window of the food store, he would rather choose to eat an apple…

Open the system menu and see that the satiety has dropped to 70. Black Mark hesitated for a while and decided to try the spider legs that were "baked" with the fire elemental arrow. It smells good and can be accepted, but it is a bit disgusting. He closed his eyes and repeated self-hypnosis. “I am eating steak, I am eating steak, I am eating steak…” The spider legs in the hand is raised to his lips and he carefully bit it.

“Eh???” It tastes good, a bit close to the fried shrimps i ate on the weekdays, although there is no shrimp flavor, but it is still acceptable. Open the status bar and see that his satiety has also risen four squares. The effect is double that of an apple. Black Mark is proud of it. After eating the whole spider's legs, the satiety has risen by 15 points. Unexpectedly touching his lips, he laughed and took a fire elemental arrow from the quiver and put it on the bowstring. The meteor usually flew away from a big spider in the distance.*

　　He felt some pain on his wrists because of the activity and the sun also has set. Today's harvest of the hard day is quite fruitful. The blessing from the spiders in the mountains is the level has been upgraded to the fifteenth level, and the primary cooking skill also reached 70%. The backpack was filled with various herbs, ores, spider silks, and various spider dishes. He check out the backpack and whistle in a happy mood. Black Mark slaps the empty quiver and walks toward the  Twilight Town.
