Players are coming, fortunately I have a time travel simulator

Of course, with his current strength, he was completely inadequate to explore the weather and tides on his own. Zhou Ning was also not optimistic about the exploration mission of Vic University.

Just kidding, in the future, a group of players with an average level of 80 will not be able to conquer the weather tide. Although this exploration mission is only to explore the periphery of the weather tide, usually no dangerous creatures will appear, but considering the abnormal climate in the past two days and the ice lord encountered before, Zhou Ning instinctively feels that it may be very dangerous.

But now that we've come this far, it's impossible for me to just sit back and watch. I can only try to help them while ensuring my own safety.

Zhou Ning narrowed his eyes and walked out of the camp. The eager players immediately flocked over. Zhou Ning opened his personal shop and opened it to the players.

This time he carried a small number of guns, less than 500, and they were sold out in a short time. His experience was also increasing rapidly.

[Your item [Roaming Gunner Job Change Book] has been sold, and you received 10 Vekta.]

[Your skill [Ripple Breathing] has been learned. You gain 34500 experience points and 10 Vekta.]

……

As players' purchasing power gradually increased, some of Zhou Ning's more in-demand core skills began to be purchased, and the experience income also gradually became considerable.

Zhou Ning looked at his panel and found that he had accumulated 240 million experience points. It would take more than 25 million experience points to upgrade the Wandering Gunner from level 30 to the maximum level 300. However, considering that there were still many players in Darklan and Xilin Town who could be harvested, upgrading to level 30 should be more than enough.

After reaching level 30, you can start considering advancement. The strength of a class's advancement classes is crucial. The current strength of the Gunner is just a castle in the air.

However, the experience is sufficient for now, and the experience channel is also very stable. After thinking about it, Zhou Ning chose to spend 100 million experience points to increase both the Conqueror's Haki and Observation Haki to the expert level in one go.

Both of these skills are non-integrated skills, have a very high cost-effectiveness, and can greatly enhance combat power. They can be regarded as the core skills in Zhou Ning's current combat system.

However, Zhou Ning was slightly surprised to learn that after reaching the expert level, Conqueror's Haki could actually be fused, and its description changed: [Conqueror's Haki (Expert)]: A trait only possessed by a King, granting an additional +9 Spiritual Power. This aura can damage and stun nearby enemies, depending on the Spiritual Power difference between you and the enemy. The base duration is 0.64 seconds. If the Spiritual Power difference is too great, it can also cause a stun effect. After reaching the expert level, this skill can be attached to weapons or bullets, significantly increasing attack power.

This was a pleasant surprise, and it significantly improved my combat effectiveness. The basic stun duration reached 0.64 seconds, almost double the original 0.36.

At this moment, the drifting snowflakes suddenly became thicker. When Zhou Ning looked up at the sky, he heard the sound of gongs beating in the town. A militiaman was beating the gong and shouting, "Elemental creatures are invading! Elemental creatures are invading!"

Zhou Ning was slightly startled and looked off into the distance. According to what he had heard from Sherlock earlier, there had been a recent surge of attacks by elemental creatures and wild beasts in Braxton. While group attacks on towns by wild beasts were common, group invasions by elemental creatures were rare.

Damn it, could it be that I won the jackpot as soon as I arrived?

Zhou Ning has the talent of eagle eyes, and he can see the appearance of the invading elemental creatures from a distance of tens of meters, so he is relieved.

This group of invading elemental creatures is mostly composed of ordinary ice elements and a kind of ice-blue bugs.

It looks similar to the blood worm encountered before, called the Ice and Snow Demon Worm, a low-level elemental creature around level 10.

Like the blood worms, the ice and snow demon worms also belong to the type with low blood and high attack. Only a few of them have the ability to spit ice balls from a distance. As long as you have hot weapons, they are not difficult to deal with.

With a single use of his Conqueror's Haki, he should be able to instantly clear the field. Even if the players can't hold on, he can easily cover for them.

Zhou Ning speculated that if he wasn't there, the players wouldn't be able to defeat them, but the Vic University expedition team would likely come out and solve the problem. This also provided the game with an opportunity for players to interact with NPC forces and learn skills.

Because among the teachers of Vic University, there are many high-ranking people from other churches like Edwin Hercules. They are naturally not stupid enough to fail to discover the players' ability to be immortal.

This is the charm of the Apocalypse game. Not only are the players interested in the NPCs, but the NPCs are also interested in the players. The two sides are actually in a situation of equal communication.

Facing an invasion of elemental creatures, Mayor Brunson Meier dared not neglect his actions. Just as he was about to seek help from the Wake University expedition team in town, he suddenly remembered a divine revelation: these chosen ones feared no death, and were immortal. Perhaps... they could be put to good use?

"Adventurers, Xilin Town has given you bread, cheese, jobs, and warm homes. Now Xilin Town is facing an unprecedented crisis. We need you to take up arms and defend Xilin Town!"

As soon as Brunson Meier finished speaking, there was a sudden commotion among the players, because at this time, everyone received a guard mission.

[You have triggered the guard mission [Defending Xilin Town]! Posted by: Brunson Meier.]

Even Zhou Ning accepted this task. Looking at the task level of 10 and the reward of 3000 experience points, Zhou Ning curled his lips and chose to accept it. He watched with interest as the players rushed out of the town, howling.

The players' fighting power seemed stronger than Zhou Ning had imagined. Usually, two or three players working together could kill an Ice Demon Bug in seconds. However, they were also unable to withstand the Ice Demon Bug's attacks. These low-level elemental creatures were simply too numerous, and a single attack from four or five Ice Demon Bugs could take out a player.

Zhou Ning put his hands in the pockets of his windbreaker and watched the players' battle from afar. At this time, there were already some players of level 7 to 8 in Xilin Town. The high-level ones were basically all roaming gunslingers. A small number of rich guys had changed their jobs to become psychics in advance, and their performance was also very impressive.

At the current stage, except for the warrior who lacks mobility and appears bulky, the other professions are actually similar and relatively balanced.

The battle between players and elements was extremely fierce. Although there were many invading elements, players had the advantage of being able to be resurrected infinitely. The on-site battle was very brutal, and some posts about this elemental invasion also appeared on the forum.

At this time, Zhou Ning saw the figures of students and teachers from Vick University rushing over in the distance. The corners of his mouth curled up slightly, he reached out to press his hat, and quietly started the clan training.

Instantly, a flash of lightning flashed in Zhou Ning's eyes. With the added bonus of his clan precepts, the level of his Conqueror's Haki on the game panel had reached an unprecedented master level.

He decided to do his best to end the battle instantly.
