How Am I Still Alive?

Thick dark circles, yellow and dry skin, scars all over the body, plus what can only be regarded as a standard body, this is how Lu Pingan felt when he saw the mercenary named Xue En for the first time.

Honestly, it sucks.

"This is Xue En, a first-level boxer and soldier, a pure combat professional, and a player with first-tier actual combat ability in our store. It should be very suitable for your needs."

Although the shopkeeper introduced it this way, when he saw the dark circles under his eyes that seemed to have been cultivated for several months, as well as the trembling arms and wandering eyes that seemed to be signs of anxiety, Lu Pingan doubted whether he was mentally normal or whether he would die suddenly in the next moment.

But soon, it's no doubt

"...on your feet?"

"Oh, there's a poisonous snake, small problem."

He pulled and pulled casually, and the cyan poisonous snake turned into a piece of minced meat, and then he gave himself a needle, which was considered to have solved the problem.

Then, he cleaned up the extra things on his body, such as poisonous thorns, poisonous insects the size of fists, looking at Lu Ping'an's creepy things, but he was as usual.

Also walking around in the forest, Lu Ping'an is probably on normal difficulty, this one is on hell difficulty.

"Evil Fist" Xue En, one of the very few powerful mercenaries who has the title at a low level, his personal strength is not to mention the top in the first level, and many second-level combat systems cannot be his opponent.

And the reason why he is in such a mess now is because of his innate ability - "All wishes come true".

That's right, it's the one who "want to eat peaches", but his ability can only think bad and not good.

It is "I have to be careful, it is raining today and the road is slippery, and I may fall when I go out", and then I fall steadily when I go out.

The existence of this kind of ability greatly shocked Lu Pingan, made him look at the types and upper limits of abilities, and clarified a reality.

"Although I know that many abilities are negative effects, but you"

"I will try my best to restrain myself. Don't worry, I won't drag you down. I have experience in this regard."

This man was like a knife all over his body. Lu Pingan didn't bother, and smiled.

".Sorry, I'm often in the wrong mood."

The next moment, this person took the initiative to apologize, which seemed even more wrong.

In fact, according to Xue En's self-introduction, he did suffer from various mental illnesses including anxiety and depression, but Lu Pingan could understand it.

When a person has a little bit of negative emotion, that "imagination" will turn into reality and give him a fatal blow, and he will probably be in anxiety and vigilance forever.

And that kind of continuous tension will eventually turn into the psychological pressure that can overwhelm anyone, and the depression and anxiety caused by negative emotions will come together.

"Forgive me, I'm a little surprised that you are not crazy now."

"Our family has coping methods, and we have trained them since childhood. In fact, it's okay during the day. The main discomfort is at night. When you sleep too much and die, when your nightmares come true, you may really die. So I must enter the second level as soon as possible to curb the development of supernatural powers. spread further."

What? your family? Are you all like this?

"Didn't I say that? This is our 'inheritance power'. I'm fine. My uncle is exaggerating. He was rejected by the twenty-seven countries."

After really communicating with Xue En, Lu Pingan discovered that he was not as dull as he looked, and he was just a young man, a sophomore who was tortured to the point of numbness by life.

But along the way, he also knew why other mercenaries looked at him with sympathy.

Walking with him is really a nightmare level of torture.

"Is this kind of equipment really okay?"

First, I sorted out the supplies and equipment for 40 minutes, found several stores, and abruptly doubled the budget a few times. The little time wasted in repeated decisions, let Lu Ping An upgrade on the spot. He waited until today The midday share experience!

"This road smells like blood, let's change the road."

"The tree trunk that was knocked down in front has traces of giant beasts. I'll go and have a look. If you don't come back in five minutes, don't wait for me."

"I've said it before! Don't get close to the water! You will be dragged down by the lake monster! It's hard to die!"

From helplessness to annoyance, from anger to numbness, as a mercenary, Xue En is very good at torturing his employer.

But don't say it, I have gained a lot of insight on road safety along the way.

After all, "Keep vigilant at all times, and be careful of all possible threats under your feet, behind forests, underwater, behind rocks" Many people forget it after hearing it.

But when the speaker is dragged away by a giant python or dragged into the water by a water monster in front of your eyes, you will be particularly impressed.

"First of all, I need to know that you are not involved in some vicious incident. Someone secretly modified your bracelet? That would violate the contract we signed before. I need an explanation."

But now, this man was looking at him with vigilant eyes. Lu Pingan knew that he was not malicious, and he wasn't even nervous at all, just trying to hold back a smile.

From the look in his eyes, Lu Pingan knew that he probably had hundreds of thousands of words of grievances and hatreds in his brain.

Anxiety and depression are like this. They think about everything in the worst way, and make up small essays every now and then. The most terrible thing is that this person in front of him may make the small essays real!

"No, I changed it myself. I have a small method, and my anti-pollution ability is relatively strong. But I don't want to be seen by too many people."

Lu Pingan glanced at it, and Achilles behind him had completely disappeared.

A normal 0-level newcomer hunted down this monster that was close to the second level, and the bracelet would definitely change color, maybe it would jump red directly, while his own was still white.

Before departure, Lu Pingan personally modified it under the guidance of Chris.

After that, no matter what the situation is, the bracelet will only be white light.

"This thing is useless to you. I didn't want to walk around under the black light, so I dismantled it, and cut off the dyed signal line as I said."

Lu Pingan did as he did, but it was discovered that something was wrong so quickly. It can only be said that negative emotions made the Equan in front of him too sensitive.

Hearing that the employer said it was all right, the mercenary nodded without asking any further questions.

His "bad luck" is too famous, and it is too difficult to get a job. When the accident rate of the employer is as high as 67%, it is difficult not to be famous.

"Xue En, it is indeed my first time hunting, do you have any pointers?"

This time, Lu Pingan was very sincere.

He felt that he had achieved the ultimate, but since the veteran said that it was only "4 points", there should be something wrong with it.

It's not terrible to have a problem, but the terrible thing is that I don't realize that something is wrong. It may be because the place where the accident happened is directly my blind spot of knowledge.

".Have you ever killed someone? At least in a secret realm."

When it came to the second half of the sentence, the "Pandaren" with black eye circles used an affirmative tone rather than a question.

Equan could see that Lu Pingan was enjoying the fight rather than being forced to fight. This is obviously not the first brother in the battlefield.

Since he has never hunted monsters, he must have killed people.

"Um."

Lu Pingan smiled and nodded.

"So, your fighting style is to dance on the edge of a knife and bet your life with others. This is the way to duel with people, but it is definitely not the style of hunting monsters. The most important thing in hunting is not the gorgeous performance when hunting powerful monsters , but high-efficiency, stable, safe, and low-energy mass killing.”

Under Equan's explanation, Lu Pingan knew something was wrong with him.

It is easier to understand in terms of playing games. In pvp (player versus player), both sides have their own unique moves, and random responses are necessary. The psychological game can reach more than a dozen levels.

And pve (player vs. monster) hunting, efficient, low-consumption, and safe hunting, in exchange for the number of kills in exchange for stable income, is the kingly way.

"If you're a veteran, you wouldn't put yourself in danger from the very beginning. The twice-mutated Achilles is indeed quite dangerous, so you shouldn't be in its sight from the very beginning."

"You are not prepared to deal with the potions or items of the 'Mist Eye'. When you were blinded, there was a momentary stagnation. You did not prepare your mind well. This is fatal."

"Since it is possible to 'ripen plants', and since there is a monkey shield tree, why not build a fortress at the beginning, completely protect yourself, and kill safely, Aklis is easy to be irritated."

"The biggest difference between killing and hunting is that the monsters in the secret realm often have relatively simple attack templates and low IQ. It is not difficult to deal with them skillfully. We can prepare efficient hunting modules in advance. But if we can't find a way to do it recklessly , Wrestling with giant beasts is harder than killing people."

Undoubtedly, Equan helped Lu Pingan open up a new world.

Lu Pingan eagerly absorbed all relevant knowledge and experience, and practiced it in actual combat as soon as possible, using it to harvest monsters one by one and obtain the materials he desired.

"This person seems to be the right one to hire?"

And the next morning, when Lu Pingan harvested his "dividend", he was very sure of his choice,
