After everyone finished their lunch, Nangong Xiao let the two girls take a nap or something while he took his wallet and walked out.
Nangong Yue wanted to follow him and even said that she wanted to take the opportunity to have a date, but Nangong Xiao vetoed her in a righteous manner and ordered the pouting Nangong Yue to return to her room to rest.
Ziju Lan actually wanted to go along as well. After all, Ah Xiao was acting too strange today. She was so worried that she couldn't completely relax. However, after seeing Nangong Xiao's gaze that didn't allow her to refuse, Ziju Lan could only obediently go upstairs and return to Ziju's house to rest.
At this point, Nangong Xiao finally heaved a sigh of relief.
After coming out of the neighborhood, Nangong Xiao found the nearby ATM and withdrew all the savings of his ex, which was more than 6,000 yuan, from his bank card. Then, according to the memory fragments of his ex, he walked to the live bird market near the neighborhood.
At this moment, Little Seven, who had entered Nangong Xiao's body at some point, said through his mind," Xiao, do you want to buy some live birds to slaughter?”
"That's right. Since you said that in this world, other than plants, as long as there are living beings with souls, they will have experience points.”
"There are experience points for live birds, but not much. The system's setting is that the stronger the soul, the more experience points and the higher the drop rate. In this world, the average level of live birds will not exceed Level 1. Now that you've killed them, you'll get a little experience points, but the drop rate is pitifully low. It's not worth wasting time…Why don't you find some wild beasts to kill?”
"Where do you want me to find wild beasts? This is a developed coastal city. Even if I want to go to the African jungle to find trouble with lions and elephants, with my current status, I can't just go there casually. Not to mention that there will be a mission in ten days. Time doesn't allow me to run around.”
"That's true…but don't you have a lot of experience points in front of you? There's no need to go through so much trouble, right?"
"In front of me?" Nangong Xiao frowned when he heard that because there were only pedestrians coming and going on the street in front of him.
Little Seven asked with a smile, sounding like the voice of a devil. "What's wrong? Was there a psychological barrier? I don't think you need to worry about it at all. As a qualified person, you have completely left the scope of human beings. Let's just say that this world is just a parallel space. It has nothing to do with the world you were born in.”
"Little Seven, even so, I still have my bottom line.”
Is she trying to seduce me?
Nangong Xiao's gaze turned serious.
"Is that so? Forget it. Anyway, as an assistant elf, my only mission is to help the qualified ones grow quickly. As for what you choose as a qualified one, it's not up to me.”
"Understood." Nangong Xiao replied indifferently. At the same time, a thought popped up in his mind.
It seemed that the System and this System Elf were not happy existences.
Of course, Nangong Xiao did not have any psychological barriers to killing. After all, in his previous life, his hands were stained with the blood of countless people. Regardless of whether they were innocent or not, he would not hesitate to kill them all for the sake of his motherland.
However, that was the mission of the motherland after all. It was all for the prosperity and safety of the motherland. At least, these reasons convinced him, so that he would not have any pressure to take action.
But now, if he was asked to kill innocent people on the streets just for experience points, without any righteousness, or even a decent reason, he really could not do it just for personal gain.
Of course, if it was a vicious person, he would not hesitate to kill him. However, how could it be so easy to meet a bad guy?
At the very least, it would be very difficult to encounter one for the time being.
The live poultry market near the residential area was quite large. After all, it had to supply the live poultry meat needed by three large residential areas and many hotels and restaurants. Therefore, the live poultry market was not only huge but also very rich. In addition to the small poultry that Nangong Xiao was targeting, there were also many small livestock, such as sheep, deer, and other animals. The variety was very rich.
After browsing through half of the live poultry market, Nangong Xiao bought five chickens from one of the shops. He also bought a bamboo cage and carried the five chickens to an empty alley behind the live poultry market.
After confirming that there was no one around, Nangong Xiao opened the system's shop interface and bought a domestic Type 99 Parachute Blade that was worth eight copper coins from the weapon category.
In fact, if Nangong Xiao only needed a knife to kill chickens, he could find a shop in the real world to buy it. However, when he thought about how inconvenient it was to carry and the cost of digitizing it was not low, since he wanted to buy a weapon, he might as well choose a higher quality one.
Type 99 paratrooper knife made in China
(Short Blade Weapon)
white quality
[Attack: 1-8]
[Durability: 12/12]
[Remark: Ordinary military short weapon.]
After playing with the 32-centimeter-long paratrooper sword, Nangong Xiao nodded in satisfaction. With his eyesight, he could tell that the craftsmanship of this paratrooper sword was very good.
"Little chicks, I'm sorry. It's time for you to contribute.”Looking at the five adult chickens that occasionally crowed in the cage, Nangong Xiao muttered to himself, then took one out of the cage and cut its throat.
Nangong Xiao frowned when he saw the chicken in his hand flapped its wings and struggled even though its throat had been cut and it was bleeding profusely. He immediately beheaded it with his paratrooper knife.
"Ding dong ~~! Congratulations on killing a weak chicken!”
The moment Chicken was beheaded, a notification sounded in Nangong Xiao's head…Alright, this notification was from Little Seven.
Nangong was a little speechless, so he said with his mind. "Little Seven, your Support Elf also acts as a reminder?”
"Well, I think it's very funny like this.”
"Alright, there's no need for such a comical feeling.”Nangong Xiao shook his head in amusement. Then, he realized that there was a small interface in front of him that displayed some information.
Killed an adult chicken
Obtained 2 experience points, 1 copper coin, and a serving of chicken.
While reading the messages, Nangong Xiao realized that the chicken carcass in his hand had disappeared. He asked in confusion," What's going on?”
"Well, if the creature you kill is an ingredient, then after obtaining the ingredient, the corpse of the creature you kill will disappear. Speaking of which, your luck is very good. You only killed an ordinary chicken, but not only did you drop system currency, but you also dropped an item…"
After listening to Little Seven's explanation, Nangong Xiao opened his personal backpack and found that there was indeed a pheasant that had its feathers and internal organs removed. The whole pheasant was carefully processed and lying in the first empty space.
After extracting it and looking at it carefully, Nangong Xiao sighed and said," This system is much better than a professional chicken killer.”
"If the system had a punishment setting, you would probably have been punished by now.”
" Haha..." Nangong Xiao laughed and did not continue Little Seven's words. After putting the chicken back into his personal backpack, he continued to deal with the remaining four chickens.
In the end, his luck was not bad. In addition to the 8 experience points, he also received two copper coins and a chicken.
However, looking at the three chicken carcasses on the ground, Nangong Xiao was in a dilemma. He couldn't just leave them there, right?
Little Seven understood what Nangong Xiao meant and said," Actually, I have a suggestion. Don't you have 95 copper coins now? Then, he would go and kill more chickens to earn one Silver Coin to buy the Cooking Skill.”
"Cooking skill? Was there such a skill in the skill store? Why didn't I see it before?"
"Yes, it just refreshed."
"Refreshing?" Nangong Xiao was stunned for a moment. He opened the system store and glanced at it. He found that there were indeed some new items on it. He also saw the cooking skill that Little Seven mentioned in the skill store.
"The system store will refresh some products every once in a while. The variety is random, and the number is three to five. The refresh time is about a week in the original world.”
Hearing Little Seven's words, Nangong Xiao nodded." I understand. Speaking of which, this cooking skill is a skill for cooking, right?”
"This is it."
“……”
"What's wrong? Are you underestimating this skill?" Seeing Nangong Xiao fall silent, Little Seven was a little dissatisfied. He was questioning her suggestion.
"No, I don't think cooking or anything like that requires me to waste a system silver coin to learn.”Nangong Xiao stated his thoughts very straightforwardly.
"You're wrong about that." Little Seven flew out of Nangong Xiao's body at this time. He hugged his weapon with both hands and said with an unfathomable expression," Ah Xiao, what do you think of the price of the Light HP Recovery Potion?”
"5 silver coins for a bottle. This price is very expensive for me right now…Hmm? Are you telling me that after learning the cooking skill, the food you cook will have the effect of restoring HP?”
"Hehe…That's not all. As long as your cooking skill level is high, you can make rarer and higher-quality food. Those foods don't just recover HP or MP for a certain period of time. Some high-level foods can also obtain various additional buffs for a certain period of time.”
"I understand. It seems that I can really treat the system as a game.”After understanding what Little Seven meant, Nangong Xiao sighed and said," Even so, it has nothing to do with these chicken carcasses, right? You can't expect me to start cooking here after learning the skill, right?”
"Well, don't worry. I'll explain it to you now.”Little Seven paused for a moment before continuing," I suggest that you buy the cooking skill. Other than making special food, it also comes with the ability to collect materials. In other words, as long as you use the ability to collect materials, you can turn the chicken carcasses on the ground into the chicken meat ingredients in your backpack. This collection skill can even save you the cost of digitizing. " This [Cooking] skill is very important to you in the early stages and even in the later stages. After all, you know that recovery potions are very expensive. As long as there's no danger and you need to recover your HP or MP, I personally think that it's more cost-effective to use [Cooking] to make them.”
" That makes sense. As someone who 'researched' World of Warcraft, I can't refute this point.”Nangong Xiao nodded in agreement. He then clicked on the Cooking Skill Scroll in the system store and let it pop up.
Cooking Skill Scroll
No Quality
[Effect: After using it, you will learn the Level 1 cooking skill. It has the ability to collect ingredients from the corpses of food-type creatures.]
[Price: 1 silver coin]
[Remark: Beginner's pockets are dry, unable to purchase a large amount of recovery potions. Cooking is the best choice for Beginner's to get out of the predicament of having no potions to use.]
Since he had made his decision, Nangong Xiao quickly returned to the live poultry market. This time, under the strange gaze of the owner of another poultry shop, he bought ten chickens. After paying, he quickly returned to the alley from before.
After confirming that there was no one around, Nangong Xiao waved his knife and sent the ten newly-arrived chickens to Old Ma…Hmm, Comrade Chicken should be able to see Old Ma too, right?
In short, after killing the ten chickens, Nangong Xiao obtained 20 experience points, seven copper coins, two servings of chicken, and even one serving of…eggs?
Your sister, is this a different kind of description of 'killing the goose that laid the golden eggs'?
After complaining, Nangong Xiao saw that he had enough money, so he bought the cooking skill without hesitation.
