When I traveled through time and became a player, I just wanted to commit suicide

“Quack—!”

The blood crow flapped its wings and fell off the cliff.

After a while, a large string of rune light spots floated up and merged into Li Shanren's body.

This blood crow has not been blessed, so the runes it can grab are only a little. Although not as exaggerated as five times the runes, it is also very considerable.

In the border area, ordinary creatures that die will actually reappear.

But after Li Shanren's observation, they did not get up from the ground like resurrection, but reappeared in various ways that seemed reasonable.

For example, in the Nimgfu area, in front of the Stonewell City checkpoint, which is the ruins of the checkpoint where you meet Melina.

There were many Grek soldiers and a Grek knight stationed in the ruins. Li Shanren had swept them clean many times, leaving no one alive.

Every two or three days, when he returned to the ruins in front of the checkpoint, he would find a new group of Grek soldiers stationed there, while the bodies of the Grek soldiers he had killed were still there, but they were dragged to a nearby cemetery and hastily buried.

Just burying corpses randomly like this can easily give rise to dead ones, but those Grek soldiers don't seem to care about that.

Afterwards, after several more observations, Li Shanren discovered that these soldiers seemed to have been assembled from some nearby small fortresses that were not worth exploring, and some of them even came from the city of Stonewell to take over.

Of course, Li Shanren was not interested in slaughtering these Greg soldiers again and again to see if he could completely consume Greg's reserve troops.

Not to mention that he is not a bloodthirsty person, the low returns and long time required alone are enough to make him lose interest completely.

Even when farming Rune, efficiency is important.

The maximum amount of runes he could seize from a sweep of the ruins of a checkpoint was two to three thousand, which took five to six minutes. Moreover, after the sweep, it would take another two or three days for a new group of soldiers to take over the ruins.

It costs more than 10,000 runes to lure a blood crow to jump off a cliff here. It takes no more than ten seconds to draw a bow and shoot an arrow. There is a blessing point nearby that can be teleported to. As long as you calculate the time for the blood crow to reappear, you can collect it on time.

After harvesting, you can teleport away and continue exploring the border area. It is extremely convenient and you can get a guaranteed harvest regardless of drought or flood.

Considering Li Shanren’s current level, this income is still quite considerable.

......

The dark green earth dragon maintained a moderate speed, pulling a carriage that could accommodate a dozen people, running slowly in the snow.

Snowflakes fell from the sky and covered it, but did not cause any reaction from the earth dragon. It seemed that it had a certain tolerance to the cold.

In the carriage, the black-haired foreign youth who was sleeping at the rear of the car slowly opened his eyes.

The first thing that caught his eye was a pair of turquoise blue eyes. The owner of the eyes was holding his chin, looking at him intently, with a small face that had a little baby fat.

Because she was close enough, I could smell a blueberry-like scent on her.

"It's Alice, how long have I been asleep?"

Li Shanren rubbed his slightly tired face.

"It's already afternoon." Alice's soft voice came.

"Did you sleep for so long?"

Li Shanren sat up, smiled bitterly, and then looked around.

Most of the other children in the carriage were sleeping soundly, perhaps because they were tired of the scenery outside the window and the journey was really boring, so they could only rely on sleeping to pass the time.

For the children, the happiest things every day are probably stopping at noon to prepare lunch and camping at night. This is a rare time to get off the bus and rest.

Apart from the sleeping children, the few who remained awake also looked listless.

Seeing this, Li Shanren couldn't help but think silently: Should I make something that can help relieve boredom on the road?

At this moment, Alice suddenly took out a tightly covered ceramic bowl from somewhere and said, "I left this for you. Eat it quickly."

"Oh? Did you leave lunch for me?" Li Shanren smiled faintly and took the ceramic bowl which was still warm.

There was a magic heater in the carriage, probably kept warm all the time.

He opened the lid and saw a bowl full of bacon porridge with a strong aroma and a lot of dehydrated vegetables.

Li Shanren simply wiped his face with the water in the water bag and rinsed his mouth before slowly starting to eat.

As he monotonously scooped up porridge with a wooden spoon and stuffed it into his mouth, he recalled his experience of going to the border in a daze.

In order to more accurately calculate the time when the Bleeding Crow would reappear, Li Shanren basically stayed in the Blood Dynasty during the remaining three days at the border, except for taking time to find the bonded priest Millie and learn the advanced version of the magic Pyroxene Comet of the Pyroxene Magic Gravel, and did not go anywhere else.

After many calculations, he finally came to the conclusion:

A new Blood Crow would jump out of the mysterious blood-red vortex approximately every 8 hours.

That is to say, there are at most three blood crows a day, and twelve in four days. If you don't encounter the rare blessed blood crows, the maximum profit you can get each time you go to the border area should be around 135,000 runes.

Of course, this is the most ideal situation. In reality, it is impossible for Li Shanren to rush back to the Blood Dynasty at the right time every time to harvest the newly appeared Blood Crow, so it can only be said that there is no problem with a minimum of 110,000 or 120,000.

The amount of runes he captured was enough to support him until he reached level 100.

This time, because he was lucky enough to encounter a blessed blood crow, Li Shanren obtained a total of more than 7 runes. Together with what he gained from exploring the border area before, he had more than runes on him at the time, which supported him to level up times in a row.

【Level】：74→81

[Intelligence]: 46 (41+5) → 53

【Rune】：→495

[Rune required for distance to next level]:

After the intelligence attribute reaches 53, it means that Li Shanren can cast "Broom Star", one of the highest-level magics in pyroxene magic.

[Magic Name]: Broom Star

[Requirements for use]: Intelligence 52, equipped with any staff

[Concentration value consumption]: 24

[Description]: A type of pyroxene magic belonging to the Magic Academy Rhea Lukalia, which can release a magic broom star like a large comet. It can be performed while walking, can be performed continuously, and can be increased in power by charging. This is the highest level of magic taught in the Kaleros classroom, and people who have learned this magic are particularly rare in the history of the academy. The Kaleros classroom has the longest history in the Magic Academy.

Broom Star is the ultimate magic in the Pyroxene magic faction. Although it looks like a multiple-fold enlarged version of Pyroxene Magic Gravel when released, its power far exceeds that of Pyroxene Magic Gravel, and its power can be further increased after being charged.

If the magic mirror, the golden tree oath and other spells are added to enhance the magic, Broom Star can be said to be the most powerful commonly used magic that Li Shanren can currently master.

The few disadvantages may be that the casting speed is slightly slower than that of Pyroxene Magic Gravel, and the concentration value consumption is higher. With his current concentration value capacity of 157, he can only release 6 times at a time, and then he has to drink some blue dew drops to replenish it.

Under Alice's gaze, Li Shanren finished the bowl of bacon porridge spoonful by spoonful. Just as he was about to put down the porcelain bowl, suddenly, the moving dragon cart stopped abruptly.

There were faint rustling sounds around the carriage, as if many things were slowly approaching.

"Don't come out!"

Tifa's slightly anxious voice came from outside the car.

Alice seemed to have noticed something when she heard this, and a hint of nervousness appeared in her eyes.

"Don't be afraid, I'll go out and take a look."

Li Shanren frowned, held Alice's little hand and said something to comfort her, then took out the meteorite stick and walked out of the car with half bent over.

Lifting the curtain of the carriage, a girl with waist-length hair and red eyes was seen standing on the frame, staring at the road ahead with a serious expression.

On the road, there was a large group of wild wolves with gray fur blocking the way. Most of them were very thin, as if they had not eaten for a long time. Only seven or eight of them were very strong and tall, like calves.

In addition, there were more than a dozen gray wolves squatting around the carriage. They stared at the carriage with hungry and bloodthirsty eyes, their noses twitching slightly, as if they had smelled the sweet scent of living things.

"A wolf pack?" Li Shanren frowned as he watched this scene.

He knew that the journey would not always be safe, but he did not expect to encounter a pack of wolves foraging in the winter.

These wild wolves are not extraordinary creatures, but there are a lot of them. It is roughly estimated that there may be hundreds of wolves in this pack. Only a wolf pack of this size would dare to attack the convoy.

They didn't have enough guards, and if the wild wolves rushed over, it would be very difficult to deal with the situation. Someone would inevitably get hurt or even bitten to death.

After all, there are still many ordinary people in the team who have no ability to protect themselves.

"Lisern, you're awake!"

Hearing the noise, Tifa looked back at him, and the expression on her face relaxed slightly.

"Well, the situation now looks a little bad."

Li Shanren said solemnly, put his hands on his waist, pressed the soul-summoning bell, and thought about which ashes to summon that would better suit the current situation.

"It's a bit troublesome, but it would be great if you could help." Tifa said, "Such a large wolf pack must have a wolf king. I would like you to guard the carriage while I rush into the wolf pack, find the wolf king, and kill it. Then the wolf pack will automatically disperse."

Tifa is worthy of being an extraordinary person who often goes to the Extraordinary Guild to accept mission commissions. Faced with such a situation, she immediately came up with a more appropriate plan.

"Wolf King?"

However, Li Shanren hesitated for a moment and did not immediately agree to her plan.

He spread out his mental power, sweeping across the wolves one by one, and finally settled on a big wolf at the back of the pack.

The wild wolf was particularly large, no different from an adult cattle. Even compared with those strong wild wolves, it was several times larger than them.

It was just that the other party was lying on the ground, trying to hide itself as much as possible among the wolf pack and not stand out. If Li Shanren hadn't scanned it with his mental power, he would not have been able to find it.

"Could that be the Wolf King?"

Li Shanren narrowed his eyes, raised his staff, injected concentration, and quickly condensed magic power.

At this time, the huge wild wolf in the pack seemed to feel the threat, and immediately stood up and howled towards the sky.

“Ah! Ah——!”

The surrounding wolves suddenly showed ferocious looks and approached the convoy with their teeth bared.

In the back, Li Shanren vaguely heard the slightly panicked cries of the two slave maids.

However, he doesn't have the extra energy to take care of others now.

Shortly after injecting concentration into the meteorite staff, the purple pyroxene on the top suddenly emitted a dazzling blue light. After briefly accumulating for a second, Li Shanren swung the staff and threw it out.

The next second, a magical comet as big as a head shot out, carrying a beautiful blue tail, and flew towards the wolf pack without hesitation.

The wild wolf on the path had no time to dodge and was pierced by the magical comet. Most of its body turned into nothingness, leaving only its remains lying on the ground.

The wolf king in the wolf pack was immediately filled with fear when he saw this, and quickly jumped to the side, trying to hide.

Unexpectedly, the magic comet that had locked onto it made a slight turn, leaving a beautiful arc in the air, and in the blink of an eye, it shot into the wolf king's huge body, leaving a horrible blood hole the size of a washbasin.

The broom star that pierced the wolf king continued to move forward, passing through four or five wild wolves in turn before completely dissipating.

The seriously injured wolf king lay in the cold snow, whimpered a few times, and then died.

When the surrounding wolves saw this scene, they no longer dared to follow the previous orders and approach the convoy. They immediately turned around, whimpered a few times, and fled in all directions, and soon they were all gone.

Seeing this scene, Tifa opened her mouth slightly, too surprised to speak.

"Liseon, it seems that he has become even more powerful..."

She thought silently.

Li Shanren was quite surprised to see that the broom star he casually shot with accumulated power could have such power.

Of course, he was mainly surprised by the powerful penetrating ability of the Broom Star and its range which was far higher than that of the Pyroxene Demon Gravel.

After the pyroxene magic gravel is launched, it will automatically dissipate within a dozen meters.

But judging from the distance the broom star flew, it was probably more than 200 meters, although there might be a range bonus from the Far Arrow Amulet. (Note: The Far Arrow Amulet in the original version of the game has a range bonus for bows and crossbows, and only has a range bonus for spells such as Rock Ball and Surprise Attack Gravel, and is ineffective against broom stars.)

At this moment, a figure in an assassin's robe appeared beside the carriage, holding a bloody sword in his hand.

He looked at the dead wolf corpses in the distance and sighed, "With Lord Lithern here, it seems my help is no longer needed."

The person who came was Altaïr. With Eagle Vision, he noticed the terrifyingly powerful magical comet even though he was at the back of the convoy.

"Well, pack up and get on with your journey."

Li Shanren smiled faintly, without saying much, he just rang the soul-summoning bell, summoning the largest group of Asians from the border area, and ordered them to move the remains of the wild wolves on the road to the side to avoid blocking the road.

Five demi-humans of different sizes immediately ran quickly to the road ahead and carried the wolf corpse.

Two skinny demi-humans couldn't hold back their bloodthirsty instincts and took a few bites of the wolf's flesh. But when they realized they were just spirits and couldn't really eat, they vomited on the ground in frustration.

After just seven or eight minutes, the road was cleared by the demihumans at the junction, and the convoy continued on its way without much delay.
