I am a human shield, and the reward for killing monsters is 10,000 times the attack speed. What the

In the deep cave, four figures stood quietly, and the air was filled with a tense atmosphere.

Occasionally, the sound of dripping water could be heard on the cave wall, and the empty environment made people feel even more depressed.

Li Fan stood in front of the four people with a faint smile on his face.

His tone was relaxed, yet full of threats: "Can you give me some energy potion? Otherwise... don't blame me for taking action."

Among the four, the middle-aged uncle who was in the lead frowned, his eyes were as silent as the sea, and he seemed to be weighing something.

The woman behind him was wearing a black robe, with a vigilant gleam in her eyes.

He silently took out a gleaming short sword from his back, stared at Li Fan, ready to attack at any time.

The other archer had already drawn the bow, with the arrow pointing directly at Li Fan's heart. The air was filled with tension.

But at the moment when the situation was tense, the middle-aged uncle suddenly spoke up and broke the silence: "Okay, but you have to agree to one condition for us."

Li Fan was slightly stunned, the smile on his face did not change, but a hint of curiosity flashed in his eyes: "Oh? What are the conditions?"

The uncle looked at Li Fan's reaction, his eyes flashed, as if he had guessed Li Fan's thoughts.

He smiled slightly and shook his head: "Your Excellency misunderstood, we don't want you to help us pass the level. Although the third level does require hunting down 100 demons, we don't expect you to do it for us."

Li Fan raised his eyebrows slightly, thinking to himself, this person is not simple, I'd better be cautious.

Just as he was about to speak, the woman holding the dagger suddenly stared at the uncle nervously, as if trying to stop him from continuing.

"and many more!"

The woman spoke in an urgent tone, the dagger in her hand trembling slightly.

The archer seemed to want to say something, but was quickly stopped by the uncle with a wave of his hand.

There was a soothing gleam in the uncle's eyes, signaling everyone not to act rashly.

Then he took a deep breath, looked at Li Fan firmly, and continued: "What I said is not that you should fight the monsters for us."

He paused, then added: "We just hope that you can help us get rid of one person."

Li Fan's heart was shaken, and his eyes couldn't help but focus: "Murder?"

The uncle nodded, a deep light in his eyes: "Yes, if you can help us complete this task, we are willing to reward you handsomely."

As he spoke, he took out five bottles of energy potions that were shining with strange light from his backpack and slowly handed them to Li Fan.

Li Fan's eyes involuntarily fell on these medicines, and then he looked at the uncle as if nothing had happened.

However, Li Fan did not respond immediately, but looked at the uncle's three teammates.

They just looked at each other, with some hesitation in their eyes.

But in the end, at the uncle's signal, they took out more potions from their backpacks.

In just a short moment, Li Fan's eyes were filled with ten bottles of energy potions, each with a different color and emitting a different scent.

Even so, Li Fan still didn't show much interest.

He just said calmly: "These potions don't seem to be enough for me to help you kill people easily, right?"

The uncle seemed to have expected Li Fan to react like this. He smiled and his eyes flashed with determination: "Of course, in addition to these ten bottles of energy potions, I also have a potion refining list."

Before he finished speaking, he took out a parchment scroll from his arms and handed it to Li Fan.

Li Fan raised his eyebrows slightly, with a thoughtful gleam in his eyes. He took the parchment and opened it.

Written on it were detailed recipes for refining some potions, and the name of one of the potions made Li Fan's eyes suddenly light up.

A+ grade potion - Snake Town Water.

"What is this?" Li Fan couldn't help but ask, with a hint of excitement in his voice.

Seeing Li Fan's reaction, the uncle showed a smug smile on his face: "After taking the A+ grade potion, in addition to permanently increasing the upper limit of energy points, it can also significantly reduce energy consumption within a day."

Li Fan's eyes gradually became solemn.

He thought to himself that this medicine could indeed be of great help to him.

Especially in the next challenge, if you can get this potion, your energy consumption will be greatly reduced.

He looked at the uncle again: "Tell me, who do you want me to help kill?"

When the uncle saw Li Fan finally speak, a satisfied smile appeared on his face.

Then he took out a rune stone that exuded a mysterious aura from his backpack, pressed it lightly, and a virtual interface appeared.

It is the current player ranking list of [Trial Land].

The uncle pointed to the number one player ID and said, "This person is the ferryman - Yabek."

A trace of confusion flashed across Li Fan's eyes: "Yabek?"

The uncle chuckled and pointed at the ID ranked first. The name Li Fan saw was Yabek's.

The uncle added in a low voice: "If you can help us get rid of him, we will personally hand over the remaining half of the medicine list to you after the task is completed."

Li Fan took a close look at the parchment scroll, pondered for a moment, and finally nodded and took the prescription.

"Okay, the deal is established."

After Li Fan finished speaking, he turned around and sat in the corner on the other side of the cave.

He leaned quietly against the rock wall and took a deep breath.

Looking at the dim cave walls around him, Li Fan took out a small bottle from his waist, the mouth of the bottle emitting a faint light.

That was the potion he had obtained from the fight with the four men just now. There were a few simple words written on the bottle: "Recovery Water".

He quickly unscrewed the bottle, poured out the medicine, and drank it in one gulp without hesitation.

The medicine slid into the throat and instantly turned into a warm current, quickly spreading throughout the body.

Li Fan felt a cool and comfortable feeling.

From the tired body to the tense spirit, everything seemed to be recharged in an instant.

The energy in the body recovered quickly, and the originally heavy body became much lighter.

He closed his eyes and took a deep breath, feeling the effects of the potion gradually unfold in his body.

My heartbeat gradually stabilized, as if every inch of muscle in my body was rejuvenated.

Li Fan relaxed slightly, his gaze returned to the front, thinking about something.

Suddenly, the air in the cave became oppressive.

The surrounding rock walls began to shake violently, as if a huge monster was roaring outside the cave.

The rocks kept rumbling, dust was flying, and the structure of the entire cave seemed to have changed drastically in an instant.

Li Fan felt a strong vibration coming from deep within the earth.

It seemed as if some enormous force was collapsing the foundation of the mountain.

A hint of alertness flashed in his eyes, and he quickly regained some of his fatigue.

The mental power suddenly expanded, covering the entire cave.

In an instant, his spiritual consciousness surged in all directions like a tide, exploring everything around him.

At this moment, his mental power touched a strange wave, and he was suddenly startled.
