Chapter 13 Universal Arrow Skill lv1

[Adventure Task]

[Task One]Pig Charge! Face the storm brought by the wild boars!

[Task Description]: In the den of Mo Yu Snail, you encountered several Little Steel Toothed Pigs competing for food. You easily killed these little pigs, but this also signifies the arrival of danger. Stop the crisis! Face the challenge brought by the Steel Teeth Pig!

[Reward]: Wild Boar Dagger, Praying Power×5

A few lines of text appeared in Char's view!

As expected!

Just as he had anticipated, the system automatically generated the task.

This implied that his collision with the Steel Teeth Pig was inevitable; it would definitely happen.

Moreover, considering the rewards, this task seemed quite perilous, as the system gave out a reward of five strands of Praying Power at once.

This was the most amount of Praying Power he had ever received as a reward for a task so far.

Furthermore, it was unprecedented that this task's reward included something other than Praying Power.

Wild Boar Dagger, no matter the quality, was a piece of equipment.

All this implied that this task would not be as simple as previous ones.

Char's expression was rather changeable.

In the DND worldview, the strength difference between a youngling and an adult individual is enormous, making a vast number of levels.

Even a giant dragon, in its young dragon stage, only has a 3-5 Challenge Level.

So do not assume that the adult Steel Teeth Pig's Level would not be high just because these piglets only have 1/4 Challenge Level.

The Little Steel Toothed Pigs having only 1/4 Challenge Level does not mean that the adult Steel Teeth Pigs also only have 1/4 Challenge Level.

Extrapolating from the level of Little Steel Toothed Pigs, the challenge level of an adult Steel Teeth Pig would be at least Level 1, and it is very likely to reach Level 2.

If the number were small, he could manage, but with a larger number, merely relying on the Lantern Firefly could not guarantee his safety!

Char sped up his hands, scraping off the Mo Yu Snails adhered to the rock wall. He didn't have time to bother with the ones he missed.

After quickly scooping most of the Mo Yu Snails into a bamboo basket, Char grabbed the pile of Little Steel Toothed Pigs tied up with the Lantern Firefly, called out, and turned to leave.

"Let's go!"

After descending the mountain, Char seemed to faintly hear the howl of wild boars, which hastened his steps even more.

Luckily, because he retreated in time, the Steel Teeth Pig, grieving over the loss of its young, did not catch up; Char safely made his way back to the cart.

However, the emergence of a demon beast group nearby still gave Char a considerable sense of crisis.

Glancing at the system map, these past few days, due to the arrival of the Lantern Firefly, his courage had grown considerably, and so had the range of his hunting expeditions, illuminating many new areas.

On the map, valleys, mountain foothills, lakes, streams, dense forests, cliffs, and meadows were all available; even the newly discovered Mo Yu Snail den was marked as a special resource spot.

After some exploration, Char had confirmed that there were indeed no demon beasts nearby; incidents like the Green Skull Ghost Spider suddenly attacking people were random.

Of course, some might have been overlooked, after all, with such a large area spanning several square kilometers, who knows where some demon beasts might be hiding?

But even if there were, the number would not be high, at most one or two, and their Challenge Level would not be high, unlikely to be stronger than the Lantern Firefly.

One could only say, although the god of transmigration threw him into an otherworldly realm, forcing him to start from scratch and struggle for survival in the wilderness,

They still took care of him somewhat; at least they didn't start him off in a hell filled with powerful demon beasts everywhere.

The degree of danger in the vicinity was about the same as the Newbie Village he designed, which still suited the conditions for newbie development.

However, no matter how low the degree of danger, there were still hazards.

For instance—Demon Beasts from other areas might pass through here.

And just like that, danger arrived.

Putting away the map, Char glanced around.

The inside of the carriage had undergone significant changes compared to two days ago.

The makeshift wooden bed against the wall had been replaced with a sturdier and newer bed made of better wood, though it was still the width of a military cot—any wider would have been too cramped and taken up too much space, given the total interior space of the carriage.

The bed was now made with sheets and a mattress, and a neatly folded blanket lay on top, while the dried leaves that had been piled at the head of the bed had long since disappeared.

Now, Char no longer had to pitifully use dried leaves for warmth.

Besides the bed replacement and the addition of a brown-tailed roe deer skin blanket, the carriage was filled with new pieces of furniture like tables, chairs, chests, and cabinets, all handmade and looking very simple and rough.

But no matter what, it now felt like a home, no longer as empty as before.

Soon, Char went in front of the shrine to settle today's adventure tasks.

Inside the shrine, the sparkling star-like golden light brightened and then dimmed, and above the Prayer Tablet, there were now seven strands of Praying Power.

Today could be considered a bountiful harvest, as, in addition to the Praying Power from routine tasks, the first kills of a brown-tailed roe deer and a Steel Teeth Pig both contributed Praying Power.

The first collection of a Mo Yu Snail also earned him a strand of Praying Power.

By tomorrow, he would be able to recruit another Magic Pet.

If he was lucky, he might even be able to do so tonight.

Without much delay, Char soon began moving the carriage.

This place had become unsafe, so they needed to relocate somewhere else, even if it was just a few kilometers away.

Old Ma, weakly pulling the cart, made a "creaking" noise as the wheels rolled, and the carriage started moving, trembling as it went forward.

...

The sun dipped below the horizon, leaving a few red afterglows in the west.

As night approached, the performers in the forest changed again.

Char sat in the carriage, his hand on his oak bow, holding his breath and concentrating, aiming at a nightingale perched on a distant treetop.

"Whiz—"

The blue feathered arrow left the string, creating a piercing whistle as it sliced through the air.

The nightingale, startled, flapped its wings frantically to fly away from the treetop.

With a dull thud, the arrowhead penetrated the bark and burrowed into the wood, while the tail of the arrow trembled up and down, though the nightingale had already flown far away.

Despite not killing the nightingale, there was no sign of disappointment on Char's face.

On the contrary, his expression was initially a bit dazed and confused, then turned into enormous surprise.

This was just routine practice of Arrow Technique, and he hadn't been expecting any significant rewards; gradual improvement of his skill over time would have been enough.

However, as soon as he released that arrow, his mind was flooded with insights, as if a Divine Archer had directly transmitted experience to him, noticeably enhancing Char's Arrow Skill.

He went from an Initial Glimpse to entering the room all at once.

Once he had finally absorbed this realization, Char snapped back to reality and excitedly opened his panel.

Just as he suspected, the Skills section was no longer "—", but displayed his first skill.

"Universal Arrow Skill"!
