How to survive in a soul-based game with full female mods

Lin Yinxi pondered for a moment, wondering where the three remaining people up there should be by now. There were no Knights teaming up to clear dungeons in the game, so he wasn't sure, but he had a feeling they were almost there.

Of course, this was just a rough guess. He wasn't some humanoid computer, and this dungeon itself was much larger than the one in the game, so an accurate calculation was impossible.

Lin Yinxi sat there and waited for about a minute before the rock centipede rushed up again. From a distance, one could see the huge cracks on the rock centipede's face.

He hit the rock wall twenty times, hit the rock pillar twenty times, and hit the rock wall nineteen times. Finally, he was hit on the head by stalactites nineteen times, and his head was naturally smashed.

Lin Yinxi didn't take any action at this time, but just waited quietly, rolling to avoid the rocks being thrown at him.

After such a long period of ineffective attacks, the rock centipede seemed to become even angrier, its jaws cracking open as if it was preparing for a charge.

Seeing this scene, Lin Yinxi was filled with emotion. It was finally time to say goodbye to this disgusting bastard.

Anyway, I won't be fighting in the fourth stage, so I can leave it to the three Knight Captains. They will take care of it, so why should I do it myself?

"Though the experience points are a bit of a shame..."

But you can earn experience points later. In the early stages of the game, you can earn experience points by defeating bosses in just a few days and just wandering around the map.

Moreover, he believed that with the strength of the Knight Commanders, they would never die at the hands of the Rock Centipede.

Lin Yinxi stopped at the edge of the rock face where the last stalactite fell. The rock centipede slowly picked up speed. He stood quietly in front of the rock face, repeating what he had been doing so far.

Rumble, rumble—!

The same thing happened as before. The rock centipede slammed its head against the rock wall again, then went berserk, causing stalactites to fall on its head.

The stalactite broke with a crackling sound and pierced into the rock centipede's head. This time, its head was almost split in half, and broken skull fragments flew everywhere.

The rock centipede, having lost half its head, struggled with a sound completely different from before. Lin Yinxi retreated to the other side of the rock wall in advance, not wanting to be hit by the rock fragments.

"It's finally over."

He stood behind the rock wall and stretched. From every perspective, this was a truly exhausting boss battle, and he really didn't want to go through it again.

The rock centipede didn't even think about breaking through the rock formations at this point, simply struggling to disappear through the nearest crack. This caused the gap, which was originally too narrow for even a person to fit through, to expand to a passage more than three times its size.

At this point, the player only needs to follow that passage to reach where the rune is and start the fourth stage of the boss.

But there was no need to follow them now. All he had to do was wait here for Alice, Liz and Erica to arrive, and then set off with them.

Lin Yinxi sat in the most conspicuous position on the road with a wide view and began to wait for the three people.

"How can I explain this?"

He was thinking in his mind how to explain so that they could accept what he had done.

063. Worry

——Click, click, click.

Hearing the familiar sound of armor coming from the other end of the road, Lin Yinxi raised his head.

Familiar armor and familiar weapons.

Under the orange-yellow light of the torches, the figures of the knight leaders wearing silver armor were advancing.

He finally waited for Alice, Liz and Erica to join him.

Liz was walking in the front, followed slightly behind her by Alice and Erica, each holding a weapon.

Liz, who was walking in front, didn't know if she noticed Lin Yinxi's figure. She turned around and said something to the person behind her. Then, she took big strides and walked over quickly. Lin Yinxi also stood up from where she was.

Liz slung her weapon around her waist and took off her helmet. Her long, cyan hair, tied into a bun, flowed down freely, and the one eye not obscured by her hair stared at him meaningfully.

Lin Yinxi waved in greeting.

"You guys came earlier than I expected?"

"Is this the first thing you said after meeting?"

Lin Yinxi smiled awkwardly, but Liz didn't smile, she just looked at him with sharp eyes.

Judging from Liz's eyes and expression, she didn't seem to be really angry, but she also didn't seem to want to be fooled by his careless behavior.

What Lin Yinxi felt was Liz's firm will to get a clear answer.

"Besides this...there's not much else to say...ahhh."

Liz grabbed Lin Yinxi's cheeks, pulled them tightly, and pulled him in front of her.

At this time, Liz's face was close to him. Although he wanted to keep some distance, Liz's palm did not move at all and he could only stay frozen in place.

"You have a lot to say to us, right? New guy?"

"I'm just kidding! (′▽`???) Sorry, so could you please let me go first?"

Liz stared at him for a moment, their faces so close they were almost touching, and then she let go. Lin Yinxi slumped to the ground. Liz looked down at him with her blue eyes.

"Why didn't you tell me in advance? If you wanted to act alone, you could have told us first!"

I'm not going to tell you how to do it. I'm not going to tell you how to do it.

Liz's eyes held his gaze with a serious look, as if she didn't want to hear his vague answer.

In fact, the most fundamental reason is that if several people attack at the same time, the rock centipede's hatred may not be concentrated on one person, but it is unknown who it will spread to. However, this kind of thing cannot be said directly.

What if the Knights thought that he disliked them and that they would hinder his actions? Although it might be an exaggerated idea, Lin Yinxi didn't even want to give them the opportunity to have such thoughts.

That's definitely not the case, and I don't intend to do that. On the contrary, having their help would be beneficial, so how could it possibly be a hindrance?

Unless it was a boss that had to be defeated personally, he wanted to leave all the subjugation work to the Knight Commanders.

Of course, the experience points gained from defeating bosses in the early stages of the game are quite high, but starting from the middle of the game, the experience points of all monsters will increase. Therefore, this is a gap that can be easily overcome with time.

In addition, for the dark mod, as long as the holy power and magic power are added properly, it doesn’t matter whether the level increases or not within a certain range.

In other words, as long as you can grasp some of the attributes and strength of the boss, you don't have to worry too much about the experience points you gain from defeating the boss in the early stages of the game.

"Can you just say 'There are some reasons...'?"

"What do you think?!"

Before he knew it, Alice and Erica had gathered around him, looking at him with similar expressions to Liz's. Three pairs of heavy eyes swept over him, giving him a full sense of oppression.

But like Liz, Alice and Erica weren't really mad at him.

The only difference is that if Liz was complaining about why she wasn't told in advance, then Alice and Erica seemed to have mixed some accusations in their complaints.

"So, what's the answer?"

Lin Yinxi gave the second reason, which is also the most obvious answer.

"I don't want you to get hurt."

"...?"

Liz's eyes widened instantly, a look of 'What did I just hear?' Behind her, Alice and Erica also had the same expression.

"Wait a minute, what did you just say?"

"I don't want you to get hurt."

“…Who gets hurt, and will we get hurt?”

"Who else is here? You, of course."

Liz's blue eyes rolled around in confusion, as if her brain was overloaded and she hadn't figured out what he was saying.

"Newcomer, you're not worried about us, are you?"

"Even you would die instantly if you fell from that height. It's no surprise that I'm worried."

"If that's the height, how high is it?"

Liz's face seemed to be twitching.

She seemed to want to pretend to be very angry, but she was happy because of Lin Yinxi's concern for her. The corners of her mouth kept twitching uncontrollably, wanting to grin.

Her expression was quite interesting.

"According to my feeling, it fell for about 20 seconds. How high do you think it was?"

With the exception of a few special NPCs, all NPCs are not immune to death caused by fall damage. Of course, due to the characteristics of the game, this fall damage can also be used to kill bosses, which has been tested by players.

When falling, the character will suffer damage proportional to a certain maximum health value according to a certain height. Given the height of this cave, death is inevitable if you fall in.

This is why players must also use falling attacks to kill monsters to become immune to falling damage.

"You mean, you're okay as a newbie?"

"Of course, I'm still alive and kicking now, right?"

"I don't think you'll tell us how you did it."

"It's not that I won't tell you, but I don't know how to tell you. I don't do it based on knowledge, but on instinct."

He wasn't sure if Alice, Liz, and Erica could perform a falling attack.

They cannot deflect enemy attacks, and although they can be rolled over, they have no invincibility check during the roll. They also cannot activate the special abilities of weapons other than their own.

It really feels like an NPC. Can't flick a knife or roll.

Before coming here, just in case, he asked them if they knew how to use the enemy as a stepping stone when falling from a high place so that they could land uninjured. As a result, all four of them just had question marks on their heads and looked concerned about him.

He just tried it and found that he seemed to be able to do it. Because he didn't know the principle, he didn't know how to teach it.

How do I know why only my roll has invincibility time?

"No matter what, your behavior has caused us too much worry! Besides, Mr. Newcomer, you don't have to worry about us—"

064. Favorability up

"Why don't I worry about you?"

"......ah?"

Erica was speechless at his question and blinked.

"You guys are not immune to illness or death. You will feel pain if you get hit, and you will die if you get injured. Why should I not worry?"

When facing the rock centipede later, he was also prepared to explain all the monster's patterns to them.

Because they are real people.

From now on, he plans to give them an explanation every time he entrusts them to help him defeat a boss.

The boss's attack patterns are varied. Once hit by the boss, it is easy to fall into infinite stiffness and die in pain. Now the boss in the dark mod is more dangerous because the interval between attacks has become shorter.

And most importantly, if the Knights Generals had not moved away and stood with him at the top, they would have fallen down with him because the place would have collapsed.

They are not immune to fall damage, so of course they should be worried.

"We are knights, rookies. If I must die, I am mentally prepared for it at any time, and I must be ready."

"Before you become a knight, you are first and foremost a human being. Although you will die one day, it won't be today, and it will be the same in the future. As long as I am here, I will never let you go!"

There will be so many monsters for them to defeat in the future, and so many interesting stories for them to experience together. He will never tolerate their easy death.

Their lives are my lives, and I will never let that happen.

"I'm sorry for not telling you all in advance. But under the circumstances, this was the best option. Because I didn't want you to be involved in something that only I can solve."

"Newcomer..."

After Lin Yinxi finished speaking, Liz's eyes sparkled for some reason, and Alice and Erica also looked at him with obviously changed eyes.

'Is it effective?'

Although he didn't know which words had the effect, it seemed that he had gotten through the difficult times safely. Lin Yinxi breathed a sigh of relief. The result was better than he had expected. He was really lucky.

"So after this... Hey, are you guys listening?"

He wanted to explain what the rock centipede looked like and what its attack mode was, but for some reason, no one was listening to him. Everyone seemed immersed in their own thoughts.

Liz...you're always like this, but why did Alice and Erica become like this?
