"The Ice and Snow": Special Water Element Magic Skill Book. The Ice and Snow, a wide-range magic skill, causes massive damage to the target while forcing it into an icebound state. Learning requirements: Mastery of Water Element, Intelligence 200.

(Ice state: cannot accept master-level or lower enhancement magic within 30 seconds, and cannot accept resurrection skills for one minute if already dead.)

Xiao Hua returned to the city, and it was completely dark. However, under the dim light of magic street lamps, the ice crystal-like buildings in the Snow City reflected each other brightly, making them look dazzling. From afar, they looked like twinkling stars shining, dreamlike and extremely charming. In the evening, it was also the peak time for the game. The Snow City changed its cold atmosphere during the day, and just a casual glance would give you a sense of festive grandeur, truly bustling!

In this beautiful and enchanting, yet rare sight of ice and snow, amidst a lively atmosphere, Xiao Hua seemed to be detached from it all. His entire attention was focused on the skill book that he had stolen from the package, which shone with a faint red glow!

The red special freedom skill book, he only heard about it during the internal test. He knew that there was such a skill book, but he had never heard of anyone getting one. Even the ordinary blue freedom skill book, he saw for the first time at an auction held in the main city of Baihu, after hearing about it.

Elite-level monsters above level 50 have a chance to drop free skill books. Unlike profession skill books, free skill books can be learned by any player regardless of their profession or attribute system as long as they meet the requirements for learning skills! Just like the one in his hand, "Ice and Snow", even an archer from the wisdom system can learn it, provided he also gets the water element specialization free skill book.

Imagine a warrior who can magic, a priest who can charge, a mage who can assassinate, and a magic archer who can magic in a wide range! The emergence of free skills has made the extremely open career system in the second world even more unpredictable! Predictably, the existence of free skills will undoubtedly make the otherwise delicately balanced career system unbalanced. Each player can learn five ordinary free skills and one restricted free skill. If the skills are properly matched and matched with his own professional skills, it will be possible to build a super player with one hundred or even one enemy!

The second world has the most attractive feature of having a relatively balanced foundation, but also possessing the possibility to surpass balance. Anyone who likes playing games has dreamed of being able to fight against thousands of enemies and be the sole defender against an army of thousands!

The second world is in a near real game environment, so that all players are in a balanced starting point, giving players the possibility to realize this dream!

Looking at "Ice and Snow" in his backpack, Xiao Hua couldn't help but feel a surge of excitement. One of the main reasons he decided to play a low-output rogue was because there would be free skill books appearing in the game's mid-stage. By learning self-use skills, he could change the disadvantage of rogues having low output.

According to the experience of the internal test, it takes about a year and a half for players to be able to challenge monsters above level 50 and drop free skill books. He chose to practice skills first, also because he wanted to take advantage of this reason. When his skills are almost mastered, the game will also have the appearance of free skills. If he's lucky, he can get a free skill book!

And there is also a very important reason, any game, once there is a certain number of senior players, the training speed of low-level players will be much faster, the game setting will allow low-level players to upgrade as soon as possible, narrowing their gap with senior players. New players who practice to the same level and enter the game later take much less time than the first batch of players who enter the game.

Anyone who has played the game knows this, but few people can do what Xiao Hua does, which is to practice skills without leveling up. Because only practicing skills and not leveling up is a very boring process. In front of a game that is both liked and lively, ordinary people simply cannot bear the loneliness of not leveling up.

Xiao Hua has always been a person who served in the army, although lazy, but there is a strong impulse in his heart. A character that is both fun and powerful output is what he aims for.

"Ice and Snow" although he can not learn, but it gave him great motivation! After running to the nearby warehouse and putting on the technician's smile cover and storing "Ice and Snow" and other equipment, Xiao Hua left the city overnight and ran towards the Millennium Ice Lake.

The ice field under the moonlit night is not as bright as the buildings in the snowy city, but it is also crystal clear and very beautiful. However, Xiao Hua's mind is completely on the distant frost dragon. His mind has been completely occupied by the free skill books that thieves can use, even the special restricted free high-output skill books!

Having already walked through it once, Xiao Hua now walks with ease. The only thing to watch out for is not being hit by a small whirlwind after entering the Ice Wind Canyon, and in some places where the moonlight cannot reach, he must carefully observe the monsters' appearances, otherwise, if he's not careful, all his efforts will be wasted.

Even so, compared to the seven hours it took to reach it during the day, Xiao Hua only spent six hours to get close to the Frost Dragon again!

Theft!

Xiao Hua used his skill without hesitation again. And when he touched the Frost Dragon, the Frost Dragon sent him back to Snow City.

The theft failed! This time, Lady Luck did not favor him.

"Damn it, I wasted six hours and lost 20% experience points and two pieces of equipment. It was a total loss! Xiao Hua looked at his empty backpack and the missing equipment on his body, grateful that he had switched to the worthless technician set instead of wearing the slime king's leather armor, otherwise he would have regretted it."

It was already three in the morning, but Xiao Hua, after leaving the resurrection point, ran towards the city again!

I won't stop until I steal the skills!

A white shadow, which appeared and disappeared, was running very hard in the moonlight! After six hours, the sky had brightened, and this white shadow returned to the resurrection point in a disheveled state.

After spending another six hours and losing 20% experience, Xiao Hua still came up empty-handed. After his resurrection this time, his bloodthirsty mind finally calmed down a bit. The first time the boss died always dropped good items, so it was likely that he could get "Ice and Snow" from the frost dragon because of his first-time encounter with the dragon.

Seeing that it was already past nine in the morning, and he would have to eat in two hours, Xiao Hua logged off and returned to reality.

After leaving the game chamber, Xiao Hua put on a short-sleeved sportswear. When he was in the army, he formed the habit of daily training, and after retirement, he would now exercise for at least an hour every day. Before moving to the city, he mostly did dumbbell exercises, but now that he lives in the suburbs, with good outdoor environment and no vehicles passing by, Xiao Hua has become addicted to running.

In early March, the sun was warm. Xiao Hua greeted Lao Ma and ran out of the community along the road leading to the outside.

About twenty minutes later, Xiao Hua turned a corner and suddenly saw a familiar figure in front.

"Wow! Just looking at this devilishly sexy body under the tight workout clothes makes me want to commit a crime! Although I can't see the most impressive breasts, that slightly lifted little butt and incredibly slim waist still make me hot!"

"Hi, I'm running." Xiao Hua ran over and started running alongside Zhou Xiaorou.

"Rubbish!" Zhou Xiaorou glanced at Xiao Hua and said without any courtesy.

"... This is called polite talk, it's polite!" Xiao Hua protested seriously.

"Obviously I'm running, but you still ask me if I'm running. What's wrong with that!"

"Does this mean you don't like beating around the bush?" Xiao Hua's eyes turned.

"Of course!"

"I'll be straight with you. I like you. Would you be my girlfriend?"

"... I said yesterday that I don't need a boyfriend!" Zhou Xiaorou bit her teeth and refused to say, she knew that meeting Xiao Hua would definitely have unexpected developments.

"Haha, don't rush to refuse. I'm just giving a suggestion. If there's a need, just hint at it. Everyone has their rooms facing each other, so it's convenient for anything." Xiao Hua chuckled and shamelessly repeated what he said yesterday word for word.

This sentence is not so significant when you hear it once, but now that Xiao Hua has brought it up again, it takes on a slightly different flavor.

"What do you mean?" Zhou Xiaorou asked with a stern face.

"Do you really want me to be straight?" Xiao Hua said with a smile on his face.

"No, no need." Seeing Xiao Hua in this state, Zhou Xiaorou felt a panic and quickly refused. She really feared that Xiao Hua would say something inappropriate early in the morning and ruin her good mood.

Xiao Hua chuckled and ran alongside Zhou Xiaorou, occasionally pulling her in different directions. Some young people who had finished their morning exercise saw Zhou Xiaorou by Xiao Hua's side and couldn't help but show envy in their eyes.

Zhou Xiaorou was followed by Xiao Hua, this big fly, for more than half an hour. When she returned to the villa, she felt dizzy and tired.

After their morning run, both of them were sweating. Zhou Xiaorou planned to go to the bathroom for a shower and recover, but she didn't expect that Xiao Hua followed her in just as she entered.

"Where do you want to go with me?" Zhou Xiaorou asked unkindly.

"Haha, I was thinking about something and didn't notice. Sorry." Xiao Hua scratched his head and left. Before Zhou Xiaorou could close the door, he stuck his head in again and said, "Why don't we take a shower together?"

Zhou Xiaorou said nothing, a foot swept the past! She wants him to know that she is not easy to bully!

A jade leg swept across, and this seemingly extremely powerful kick was caught firmly by Xiao Hua with his hands.

Zhou Xiaorou thought Xiao Hua would dodge, but he grabbed her suddenly. She was not prepared and her body overreacted, causing her other foot to lose balance. Her figure swayed, about to fall to the ground!

Xiao Hua was startled and moved quickly, stepping two steps to Zhou Xiaorou's side. He stretched out his hands and firmly encircled her waist on both sides, stabilizing her body that was about to fall. Falling in this unbalanced posture could be serious or minor.

Zhou Xiaorou was still shaken, and suddenly felt a hot body pressed against her.

The two of them just finished running, and their bodies were hot. Not only did Zhou Xiaorou feel it, but Xiao Hua also felt the heat from Zhou Xiaorou's body through her clothes.

A familiar feeling rose from their hearts, and time seemed to stand still. But before Zhou Xiaorou could protest, Xiao Hua let go of his arms and apologized, "Sorry, I just wanted to make a joke, but I didn't expect it almost made you hurt."

Zhou Xiaorou didn't react, and Xiao Hua felt a little guilty as he continued to say, "It's nothing. I'll go out first. You can take your time." After saying that, he tiptoed quietly out of the bathroom.

Zhou Xiaorou finally came to her senses and realized Xiao Hua was gone. She slammed the door shut, locking it from the inside!

"Damn guy!" Zhou Xiaorou, who was completely immersed in warm water, recalled their ambiguous posture a moment ago and felt a fiery heat in her heart. She couldn't help but say angrily. But strangely, this damn guy, she couldn't hate him at all, which made Zhou Xiaorou feel anxious.

Xiao Hua was sitting on the sofa humming a song in a happy mood. He seemed to have taken a big advantage just now.

Last night, after returning to his room, he was troubled for a while about how to seduce Zhou Xiaorou. Then he remembered the personal experience of seducing women that Devil Squad Leader had mentioned.

"What is called bubble? Throw an apple into the water, the apple shows only a little, this is called bubble! To pick up girls is to take all the free time of the girl and leave her a little breathing time. After she gets used to it, she will leave you and the girl will be in your hands! Your platoon leader's sister-in-law, that is, my wife, at that time, everyone said that my toad wanted to eat swan meat, but it still made me soak my hands!" The platoon leader took out a photo with a watery and beautiful MM on it. The platoon leader held the photo and said proudly.

At that time, Xiao Hua scoffed at the platoon leader's proud appearance, but there was no way to do it last night. Looking back, he felt that some of the platoon leader's words were still very reasonable. He lives so close to Zhou xiaorou. as long as Zhou xiaorou gets used to his existence, he may become her boyfriend naturally.

Xiao Hua is a person who acts on impulse. When he saw Zhou Xiaorou during his morning run, he immediately started executing his plan. However, he didn't expect that things would develop unexpectedly, and it seems to be a good development. The day when Zhou Xiaorou MM becomes his housekeeper may not be far off!
