Two meters was within reach. At a time like this, many people would be panicking.
Setting up traps while moving required more concentration. Even the slightest distraction would cause the skill to fail.
Chen Mo, on the other hand, was as calm as ever. As a hacker, the more critical the situation was, the more he needed to make calm decisions. Otherwise, he would fail miserably. This was only a game, and even if he failed, he could always try again. The two White Goblins in front of him did not give him any pressure at all.
His hands moved precisely. When the two White Goblins wanted to take another step forward, the trap was already set. Then, Chen Mo threw the trap at them.
Boom!
There was an explosion. Two damage figures of over 20 floated above the White Goblins' heads.
Moreover, the White Goblins slowed down their steps.
The moment they slowed down, Chen Mo's eyes lit up. He had successfully escaped the cave!
Without the cave's restrictions, even if the two White Goblins caught up, Chen Mo could rely on low-level healing to survive until he reached the two large rocks in front of him.
Not to mention, the last trap had a crippling effect. The two White Goblins couldn't even dream of catching up to him.
Low-level monsters had low intelligence. Chasing in a straight line in the cave was fine, but once there was an obstacle, their intelligence would be completely exposed.
Leading the two White Goblins to the edge of the large rocks, Chen Mo wanted to use the two large rocks to slowly grind them to death. In the end, he discovered that the White Goblins' intelligence was worrying.
Chen Mo led them around the rocks. They didn't directly chase after him. Instead, they occasionally hesitated whether to chase to the left or to the right to intercept Chen Mo.
In this way, they naturally didn't have the slightest chance of catching up to Chen Mo.
The previous five traps had already taken out over 100 HP from the two White Goblins. While the two White Goblins were hesitating, Chen Mo used his crossbow and traps to attack one of them. Not long after, one White Goblin was killed by Chen Mo.
System Notification: You have received 30 experience points.
"So much experience!"
After the White Goblin died, Chen Mo glanced at it. His experience bar had increased by 20% in an instant.
In other words, if he killed the Level 6 White Goblins in the cave, he would still be able to level up to Level 2.
After reaching Level 2, his Attributes would increase significantly. At that time, it would be much easier to deal with the Black Goblins in the valley.
There was a White Goblin chasing after him, but it only had a little more than 200 HP left.
Even the two White Goblins were unable to do anything to Chen Mo, let alone one. Chen Mo didn't spend much effort and easily killed this White Goblin with the help of the obstacles.
Zhao Fu's EXP bar once again rose by 20%, and after the White Goblin died, it dropped 3 copper coins.
Three copper coins was a pitiful amount, but Chen Mo was penniless at the moment, so he picked them up without hesitation. In the game, it was true that a single copper coin could not kill a hero.
With this experience, the following matters were much easier to handle.
However, whether or not he could successfully lure the White Goblins out and kill them depended on the activation of the trap's crippling effect. This 10% activation rate wasn't high, but it wasn't low either. Whether or not it worked depended on luck. Chen Mo died twice before killing the second batch of White Goblins.
There was no penalty for players under Level 10. After killing the second batch of White Goblins, Chen Mo's EXP bar was close to 90%. If he killed another White Goblin, he would level up.
Against the last two White Goblins, Chen Mo's luck wasn't bad. He successfully lured them out on his first try.
System Notification: Level up!
System Notification: Your Basic Attributes have increased!
Strength + 3
Vitality + 2
Agility + 2
Intelligence + 2
Spirit + 1
After easily killing the fifth White Goblin, a white light flashed on Chen Mo's body. Chen Mo felt a warm current flow through his body, and his lost HP instantly recovered to full.
However, what Chen Mo was most concerned about was the increase in his Basic Attributes. This was the key to dealing with the Black Goblins.
Looking at the increased attributes, Chen Mo found that after the Hunter class leveled up, the Basic Attributes increased quite evenly.
Every time a player leveled up, they would increase their Basic Attributes by 10 points.
These 10 Basic Attributes were fixed by the system according to the different classes, and players couldn't change them.
However, other than the fixed 10 Basic Attributes, players still had 5 Free Attribute Points to allocate.
Although it was called Free Attribute Points, when Chen Mo looked over, he found that out of these 5 Free Attribute Points, only 4 could be allocated freely. The remaining 1 point had to be allocated to a non-main Attribute Point.
Vitality was the main Attribute Point for all classes. Apart from Vitality, the main Attribute Points for Hunters were Strength and Intelligence. In other words, out of the 5 Free Attribute Points, one point had to be allocated to Agility or Spirit.
The remaining 4 Attribute Points were the real Free Attribute Points, and players could allocate them to any Attribute Point they wanted.
For Hunters, although Agility and Spirit weren't their main Attributes, they couldn't be ignored. Agility affected the speed of setting up traps, the speed of shooting arrows, and Spirit affected the loyalty of the Hunter's pet.
Loyalty was not to be underestimated. Loyalty was related to whether the pet would listen to orders and fight actively. A pet with low loyalty, no matter how powerful it was, would not be of much help to the player.
Apart from that, Strength affected the physical damage of traps and arrows, Vitality affected HP, and Intelligence affected the attack power of the Hunter's pet.
Of course, the most difficult to decide was the allocation of Strength and Intelligence. These two Attributes represented two different paths for Hunters.
If he added Strength, he would definitely walk the path of arrows. If he added Intelligence, he could only walk the path of pets.
Chen Mo hadn't decided whether to walk the path of arrows or pets, but at the moment, traps were the most important to him. Therefore, in the allocation of Attributes, Chen Mo didn't hesitate to add 1 point to Agility, and the remaining 4 points to Strength.
When Chen Mo had first entered the game, his total physical attack power was 4-5 when he equipped the old Crossbow. When he wore the title of Death at the Speed of Light, his Strength increased by 1 point, and his total attack power became 5-6. Now that he had reached Level 2, his Strength had reached 11 points, and his total attack power became 12-13.
Based on this calculation, it seemed that 1 point of Strength only added 1 point to physical attack power.
However, Chen Mo knew that this wasn't how it was calculated. If he took off his weapon, his attack power would instantly become 0. It was obvious that the amount of attack power was closely related to the basic physical attack power of the weapon.
This could be seen from the fact that the weapon's attack power wasn't directly written as' attack power ', but' basic physical attack power '.
However, he couldn't figure out how exactly it was calculated.
However, there was no doubt that after leveling up, his attack power had more than doubled, and his HP had also increased by 40 points. He could almost tank one more attack from the White Goblin.
Chen Mo immediately used the last White Goblin to test how much his damage had increased.
He quickly set up a trap, and when the White Goblin stepped on it, the trap exploded.
-43!
A damage of more than 40 floated above the White Goblin's head. Chen Mo's damage had almost doubled!
The increase in damage was less than Chen Mo had expected. After all, his attack power had more than doubled. However, after thinking about it, Chen Mo knew that there should be a set of formulas to calculate the damage of monsters in the game. Otherwise, with his pitiful 5-6 attack power at Level 1, how could he deal more than 20 damage?
With his damage increased so much, Chen Mo easily killed the last White Goblin.
System Notification: You have received 30 EXP!
One White Goblin still gave Chen Mo 30 EXP. However, his experience bar only increased by 7%. It seemed that every time he leveled up, the amount of EXP required increased by a lot.
There were still forty to fifty Black Goblins in the valley. Black Goblins were Level 4 monsters. Chen Mo estimated that after killing all of them, he could reach Level 4.
Picking up the few copper coins dropped by the White Goblins, Chen Mo ran into the cave.
The Bronze Treasure Chest quietly lay at the end of the cave. Without the White Goblins blocking him, Chen Mo walked straight to the Treasure Chest. With a move of his hand, he opened the Treasure Chest.
System Notification: You have received the skill book "Shock Trap"!
System Notification: You have received the equipment "Normal Crossbow"!
"There really is something good!"
Chen Mo's spirits rose.
The items inside the Treasure Chest were more than he had imagined. Not only was there a skill book, there was also a weapon!
