[Goblin Armguard](Normal Black Iron), Level 3, Physical Damage Reduction +1, Agility +2, Durability 15/15.
[Goblin Leather Armor](Normal Black Iron), Level 3, Physical Damage Reduction +5, Magic Damage Reduction +2, Durability 20/20.
Zhang Mu directly put on the Goblin Armour, adding 1 point of Physical Defense to his equipment. Originally, he would need to take 5 points of damage. The Armour only needed 4 points of damage. Although it was a little insignificant, it was better than nothing. As for the 2 points of Agility, it was very good. It could increase his speed by a lot.
Goblin leather armor had a high defense. Originally, it dealt 10 physical damage. With leather armor, it only took 5 points. Monsters in Jiangcheng are generally weak. As long as they are not besieged by too many monsters, their lives are basically not in danger.
" The equipment dropped is not bad." Zhang Mu nodded in satisfaction." Open the box and see what's inside."
Fatty fumbled for a moment and found an open button. He rubbed his hands and said excitedly," I'm going to open the box. Everyone, open your eyes and watch!"

100% of treasure chests would drop potions or gold coins. There was a low probability of equipment dropping. As for skill books and special items, they could only be described as minimal. Not only did this Black Iron Treasure Chest drop an equipment, but it also dropped a skill book. It was really a great luck.
Zhang Mu distributed the spoils: " Goblin Leather Armor for Fatty."
Fatty was very surprised and said,"You don't have clothes either. Why did you give me leather armor?"
Zhang Mu glanced over and said: "Berserkers have high attack power and are the main output force. They often have to charge into the battle and fight monsters. If you feel that the leather armor is in the way, fine, take it back."
The fat man smiled cheekily: "Who said no, this must be ah!" Don't drag Boss down again!"
Hand the skill book and shield to Sun Bing.
Sun Bing scratched his head and said with a simple smile," This is not a good allocation. The most useless person here is me."
" With skills and shields, the Knight's advantage will be highlighted. You are an indispensable character in the party." Zhang Mu handed the skill book and shield to her." These two items restrict classes, so we can't use them. Don't refuse them. Take them."
Sun Bing gratefully accepted and learned the skill book.
[Petrified Skin LV1], F-rank skill, highest level LV3, petrifies the surface of the skin, loses pain perception, overall defense +5, movement speed-20%. Reduces 1 MP for 5 seconds after activation. This skill has no cooldown.
Petrified skin can make people lose pain and increase defense at the same time. It is an essential skill in the early stages of Shield Warriors and Knights. Sun Bing was a Knight with high HP and Defense. He had Taunt skills, along with Petrified Skin and a decent shield. He could even take on Elite monsters head-on. If they fought again, even without Zhang Mu, the four of them could still kill the Gnome Wandering Warlock.
Zhang Mu left one magic potion for Qin Min and three for Leng Yun. Leng Yun was an Elementalist and could temporarily act as a Priest due to the additional health skill. The Priest needed to ensure that his mana was sufficient.
The rewards of this battle were very rich. Zhang Mu did not seize any spoils of war. Instead, he rationally distributed them to those who really needed them, undoubtedly establishing a reliable image. This was not because Zhang Mu was generous, but because he knew how dangerous the Blood Forest was. Nearly half of the players would die in it. Compared to Jiang City, it was not even a warm-up. With a reliable party, the chances of survival would be much higher. They could even deal with powerful monsters that individuals could not defeat and obtain better loot.
These small profits are considered as early investment.
"This dress is really sturdy." Fatty pinched the leather armor and said," This time, the harvest is really good. It would be better if we did it a few more times."
Qin Min said," Treasure chests are definitely not easy to find. How can there be so many cheap things?"
Treasure chests were indeed hard to find, and one needed extraordinary luck to find them.
Zhang Mu knew the location of many black iron treasure chests, higher-level treasure chests, and special treasures. They were all near the campsite and would be discovered soon. Therefore, they had to rush to the Dawn campsite as soon as possible so that they could take the items away before the others arrived.
The five of them pried open the door of the small supermarket and found a large amount of chocolate, candy, compressed biscuits and drinking water inside. They packed them in large packages. With this preparation, at least for a short time, there would be no need to worry about food.
Night gradually fell, and terrifying sounds echoed in the surroundings. Most of them were strange cries in the direction of the city, while roars sounded in the west. They were filled with a fierce aura, which made people's hair stand on end. The five of them found a storage room, removed the wooden bench, and raised a small bonfire. The flickering flames lit up the dark and narrow space, giving people a sense of security.
Fatty opened a few bottles of Maotai, strung sausages with iron wire, and put them on the fire to roast hot wine. Zhang Mu closed his eyes to rest, Sun Bing was smoking, Leng Yun was in a daze, and none of them said a word.
Qin Min broke the silence." Everyone, don't be bored. Captain, say something."
Everyone looked over and unconsciously, Zhang Mu had become the core of everyone. Not only was he the captain in name, but he was also the spiritual leader.
Zhang Mu casually asked,"Fatty, where is your family?"
Fatty was the first to open his mouth." F * ck, don't mention it. I can't even remember what that alcoholic father looks like. Who knows which prison he's in!" Anyway, the whole family won't be hungry if one person is full, and there are no relatives to worry about."
"Fat uncle, it's not easy either." Qin Min sighed and said,"Captain Wood, where's your family?"
He looked up at the fire and said,"There is a fire in the house." I was in a car accident when I was young, and my family died in the accident. Later, I entered an orphanage and was adopted when I was about ten years old. My adoptive parents are very kind people."
Qin Min said with a sigh: "The captain's experience is really bumpy. I also have a sister named Qin Xiaoshi. Although she is only in high school, she is still a beautiful woman! I wonder…how it is now."
Zhang Mu suddenly said,"Fatty, give me a cigarette."
"Don't you smoke?"
"Cut the crap."
Zhang Mu took the cigarette and took a puff. The pungent feeling entered his lungs. His body couldn't adapt for a while and couldn't help but cough a few times.
Leng Yun sat opposite him and looked at him with bright eyes. Perhaps it was because she felt sorry for him, but she felt that Zhang Mu was especially kind at this moment. In Leng Yun's impression, her mother was a beautiful and gentle woman, and her father was a standard playboy who fooled around outside every day. After her mother was so angry that she ran away from home. Father hate in the heart, attitude is more rude, to the young cold rhyme is not hit that scold, only grandmother rely on each other. It was precisely because of this that Leng Yun was precocious and self-reliant. She just lacked a sense of security since childhood. After middle school, she had countless suitors, but she did not give any man color.
"There are two children at home." Sun Bing's eyes reddened slightly." My son is eight years old and my daughter is five years old. I wonder if we'll have the chance to meet."
Young children do not have the ability to protect themselves, most of them are gone.
Qin Min comforted him." Uncle Sun, don't be sad. As long as you live, there is hope."
He said,"Yes, there is hope. Let's head to Camp Dawn, where we can make a name for ourselves."
Actually, arriving at Camp Dawn was just the beginning.
It is hard to say whether man can survive the harsh environment through many trials. In his memory, the entire Jiang City had died in about seventy days. This time, could Zhang Mu use his memory to rewrite history so that the humans in Jiangcheng could last longer?
Not to mention the distant ones, just the Forest of Fresh Blood that was about to pass through. This forest was so dangerous that Zhang Mu couldn't even guarantee that he would be able to reach the camp alive. As for Fatty, Leng Yun, Sun Bing, and Qin Min, they could only depend on luck. Sometimes luck was as important as strength.
...
The next morning, the five of them were ready to go.
Each person prepared a backpack containing food, water, knives, carry flashlights, lighters and other tools. Leaving the overnight spot, head west on the highway.
Cloudy clouds covered the sun, breezes blew, the weather was neither cold nor hot, the wide highway seemed to have experienced an earthquake, cracks were everywhere, weeds were overgrown, some plants grew to more than one meter high, the suburbs were deserted, and occasionally cars collapsed on the roadside. There were no traces of human activities.
About an hour later, the scene that appeared in front of them stunned the four of them.
The road extended into a lush forest, suddenly appearing in people's vision, full of primitive and barbaric atmosphere. The forest was very large, and as far as one could see, one couldn't find the end. Behind them was a highly prosperous metropolis, while in front was a primitive and wild forest. The contrast was so strong that it was shocking.
The fat man cried out,"How big is this forest?" Can we really get out of here?"
Zhang Mu took out a dagger from the player's backpack." Let's go in."
The five of them walked into the forest of blood. The road extended for several hundred meters and completely disappeared. The environment completely turned into a forest.
The trees were extremely tall and dense, blocking out the light. The forest was quite hot and humid. After walking slowly for a while, they were sweating profusely. There was a faint musty smell in the air. The ground was covered with a thick layer of leaves. Every step he took, his feet would sink in. The surface layer of leaves was very new, and the inner layer of leaves was rotten. It was caused by accumulation all year round. Around the roots coiled, not far away from the horizontal fall of the broken wood, there are five people hug thick, covered with slippery and thick moss.
Where does it look like a forest that appears overnight?
Zhang Mu announced," Let's rest for five minutes. Qin Min will scout ahead."
Everyone had traveled for a long time and was already very tired.
Zhang Mu wiped his sweat and suddenly threw out his short sword. It passed Leng Yun's cheek and stabbed into a big tree.
Leng Yun was shocked. She turned around and saw that the dagger had nailed a poisonous snake as thick as a thumb to a tree. This poisonous snake had the same color as the bark of the tree. If Leng Yun didn't look carefully, she wouldn't have noticed it. If she had approached it earlier, she would have been bitten.
"Thank you!"
Zhang Mu glanced at her. Her cold fragrance was drenched in sweat. Her clothes were soaked in sweat, and her plump body was fully outlined, especially her plump breasts. Her cheeks were flushed red, and a few strands of hair were wet and stuck to her face. She had a unique style.
"After going deep into the forest, there are many poisonous snakes and poisonous insects. Be careful!"
"Yes!"
Leng Yun felt warm in her heart and nodded.
"Captain!" After Qin Min communicated with the bird that had returned, she revealed a panicked expression." There's a monster about 400 meters away!"
It was just at the edge of the forest, and they encountered monsters so quickly?
"Let's go and take a look."
Zhang Mu led them forward and soon found the monster Qin Min mentioned among the bushes. It was a black bear that weighed at least 400 kilograms. Its head and trunk were about three meters long. It was extremely strong, with two blood-red eyes and fangs exposed. It looked extremely ferocious.
