The Shelter Game: Me, Starting with a Tenfold Drop Rate

"You bastard!"

Vicky, seeing William emerge from the bushes, felt a surge of anger wash over her beautiful face.

Just moments ago, when they were surrounded by the Gale Demon Wolves, William, their supposed leader, had abandoned her to the wolves at the critical moment, just to buy himself some time to escape... It was utterly despicable and shameless!

Vicky glanced at the corpses of her former companions, their bellies gnawed open, their insides strewn about, and felt a chill run down her spine. Her anger towards William grew even stronger.

"I really had no other choice just now..." William spread his hands and said shamelessly, "At least one of us survived. That's better than us all dying here, right?"

Then his gaze shifted to Irving, a hint of sycophancy in his eyes.

The Fireball Spell just now! It was as powerful as a small meteor falling, it had burned the ferocious Gale Demon Wolves to a crisp...

What was even more unbelievable was that Irving could control the bodies of the Gale Demon Wolves, making them serve him like they had been resurrected!

"Bro, how did you do that? That was amazing!" William chuckled, "It's almost dawn. Now that these Gale Demon Wolves are dead, let's hurry to that mine. I'm sure we'll find some good stuff there."

"We?" Irving's face was stern.

"Well..." William quickly replied, "Don't be angry, bro. We're all players in the Other world. Since we met here, it must be fate. And you can't carry all those ores by yourself, so why not let me help you out?"

He said this with great conviction.

Vicky was fuming as she listened, but she didn't say a word. Her gaze fell on Irving. After all, he was the one who had killed the Gale Demon Wolves, and he should be the one to decide how to distribute the resources they had found.

"Let's clean up here first." Irving said indifferently. He looked around. It was already dawn, and the once dense bushes had been mostly burned away by the fire. Many bodies of Gale Demon Wolves lay haphazardly on the ground, and a fair amount of gear and materials had been dropped.

"Alright!" A joyous William began to clean up the battlefield energetically.

Irving's eyes fell onto the body of the alpha wolf. The Fireball Spell had been thrown directly into its gaping mouth, and its body had been torn apart by the explosion, lying on the ground like a piece of rag.

"Why does he get to come along? He didn't help at all, and he almost got me killed. People like him shouldn't be brought along!" Vicky muttered quietly to herself.

Irving just smiled without saying a word.

[You have successfully killed the "Alpha Gale Demon Wolf"]

[Items dropped: Wolf Fang*30, Wolf Fur*12, Wolf Crystal Core*3... Hero's Sword*1, Hero's Armor*1, Sky Guardian Necklace*1]

[Do you wish to pick them up?]

"Yes." Irving said. Wolf Fangs could be used for weapon modification, Wolf Fur could be used to make items like blankets in the shelter, and the Crystal Cores were like gems that could be embedded in weapons. As for the [Hero's Sword]and[Hero's Armor], he didn't need them for now...

Irving's eyes landed on the necklace.

[Item Information: Sky Guardian Necklace]

[Grade: High★★★]

[Introduction: It is said to contain the power of the Sky Goddess, made from a rare mineral called "Sky Crystal". Wearing this necklace can activate the power within it in times of danger, providing the player with a 90% damage reduction for 1 second (after use, the equipment will enter a dormant state, needing to absorb energy to be awakened again...)]

90% damage reduction!

Vicky also saw the item information of this necklace, a sparkle emerged in her beautiful eyes.

For a support healing mage like her, who has basically no offensive means, this could be a lifesaver in key moments.

At this moment, William, who was clearing the battlefield, also returned. He ran back like a madman, shouting all the way: "Brother! We really struck it rich this time, really struck it rich!"

[Steel Longsword, Grade: Common★★★★]

[Wooden Armor, Grade: Common★★★]

[Chainmail Chestplate, Grade: Common★★★]

[Power Bracers, Grade: Common★★★]

[Reinforced Boots, Grade: Common★★★★★]

[...]

There were a total of twelve pieces of equipment, in addition to many basic materials.

For most players, getting one piece of equipment is already as difficult as reaching the sky.

But a hint of disappointment flashed across Irving's face. Among these equipment, only one or two can be used, such as the previous[Damaged Speed Boots], which could be replaced by the[Reinforced Boots]. But for him, it's just a temporary transition.

"Is that all?" Irving asked.

This sudden remark stunned William, his eyes shifted a bit, but he quickly retorted angrily: "What do you mean by that, bro? Are you suspecting that I secretly stashed some?"

"Just rest assured, I, William, am not that kind of person!"

Irving said, "Oh, really?"

Although he didn't put those common equipment in his eyes, and his purpose of coming here was to find[Obsidian]in the mine, there are some things that he could give, even offer. But before he said it, he wouldn't allow anyone to steal or rob.

"Anyway, I didn't steal anything. If you don't believe it, there's nothing I can do." William played innocent, a hint of smugness flashing in his eyes.

The player's storage space is private, and it's impossible to see unless it's actively taken out.

Woof!

With a childish roar, Little Black wobbled over. Seeing its cute appearance, Vicky couldn't help but smile and was about to pet it.

The next moment, Little Black suddenly pounced on William, its sharp teeth leaving two rows of bloody holes on his leg.

"Argh!"

William screamed in pain, roaring: "You son of a bitch, dare to bite me!"

As he said this, he kicked out hard at Little Black's fluffy body.

Little Black was kicked and flew out.

"You!" Seeing this, Vicky's face changed dramatically and she glared at William in anger, "Are you crazy?"

"You're the one who's crazy. A little dirt dog dared to bite me, I was kind not to kick it to death." William replied.

At this moment, a chilling light shone from Irving's eyes. He knew Little Black would never bite someone for no reason. His gaze fell on William: "Do you know what two types of people I hate the most?"

"Betrayal and lies!" Irving had been betrayed by those closest to him in his previous life. His wholehearted devotion returned only a torturous death by countless stabs.

"What does that have to do with me? I didn't lie to you anyway. As for betrayal, I just didn't want everyone in the team to die here. I have to survive to avenge them..." William wanted to continue explaining, but Irving gave him no further chance. "Little Black, you always wanted me to bring you out, didn't you? Show him your strength."

Woof!

Little Black, who had just been kicked away, had somehow gotten up. It wagged its tail excitedly, adopting an attacking stance. Suddenly, a strange purple flame ignited on its body, and it pounced again at William.

"Mixed breed dog, are you really seeking death?" William sneered.

But in the next moment, he paid for his words...

The instant he was touched by Little Black's purple flame, his body ignited as if self-combusting, rapidly spreading from his pant leg to his entire body!

"How can this be! No! Fuck!"

William, lit by the purple flame, writhed painfully on the ground, rolling about. No matter what he did, he couldn't extinguish the flame. He could only watch himself being burned alive.

His bloodcurdling screams echoed in the forest for more than ten minutes.

Seeing William, burnt to a crisp, Vicky felt somewhat reluctant. But when she looked again at Irving, especially at the seemingly cute Little Black, a trace of trepidation flashed in her eyes, and horror arose in her heart.

" People who are pitiable often have their own issues to blame. You have sympathy for him, but who will sympathize with you?" Irving seemed to discern something and spoke indifferently.

A word that jolts someone into realization!

Vicky stood still, recalling the scene where she was betrayed. She knew that William, who had been burnt to a crisp, deserved it. Her brief compassion for him completely vanished.

When Irving came to William's side, the system prompt sounded.

[You have successfully killed a player!]

[Do you want to pick up the dropped items?]

[Note: Players killed in the game cannot be revived! The real body will die in the same way!]
