I’m Really Not Targeting the Mages Chapter 1: One hundred and sixty-four thousand two hundred and fifty magic frogs

Published:

In a wet cave.

Shallow sunlight refracted through the crevices of the rock and fell on a moss-covered boulder.

Buzz!

A daring blood-sucking mosquito flutters across the city.

It doesn’t know what kind of ruthless hunter it faces.

Whoosh!

The forked tongue pops out quickly, and in the blink of an eye, this delicious mosquito is sucked into its belly.

It was a young thunder-type demonic frog.

Unfortunately, it also doesn’t know what kind of cunning and patient hunters it faces——

Phew!

A sudden gust of wind rang out.

The specially made frog net arrives in an instant, and it is futile to hold it in place, no matter how hard you struggle.

The long-dormant hunter skillfully took out a slightly rusted dagger and mercilessly took the life of the Demon Frog.

“You killed 1 magic frog, and killed a total of 164,250 magic frogs. Your milestone – Yuntai Mountain Frog Hunter has set a new record”

“You gained 1 XP”

“Your spell resistance is slightly increased”

“Your spell resistance is increased to 100% (can’t be increased)”

“You completed the first sin mark and acquired the feat: One Sword in Ten Years”

“Ten years.”

“Finally a little bit stronger.”

In the cave, Roger sighed softly.

However, he didn’t stay in this mood for too long. After skillfully picking up the corpse of the Demon Explosive Frog, he followed the path in his memory and quickly and cautiously exited the cave area.

In this dark and damp place, he is not at the top of the food chain; as a demonic frog hunter, he may be just a slightly stronger prey in the eyes of other monsters.

Ten minutes later. The foothills of Yuntai Mountain.

Walking on the gravel road overgrown with grass.

Roger couldn’t help squinting at the midday sun—as dazzling as he remembered.

“How long has it been since I saw such a hot sun?”

He felt an inexplicable touch in his heart.

It’s been ten years!

In the past ten years after crossing, he has been with the magic frog every day:

At dawn, I get up in the dark and go up the mountain to catch frogs;

Wear the moon at dusk and go home to sleep.

Long-term burrowing has given him “low-light vision”.

But correspondingly, when he was bathed in the sun after a long absence, the system reminded him that he was punished by “glare light”.

This represents mild vertigo and temporary vision loss.

Fortunately, he has completed all the work today and is on his way home.

In Roger’s perception, this path down the mountain should not be dangerous.

“Don’t be careless at any time.”

“The world is too dangerous…”

Thinking like this, Roger quietly opened Xia Yin’s professional specialty “Qi Qi”.

“Watching Qi (1st level Specialty): Can avoid evil and seek good luck, and can inspect enemies and friends”

“Consumes 2 stamina and 2 stamina per minute when activated”

If God had told Roger in advance that downloading that weird career mod would cause him to cross, he wouldn’t be cheap.

Unfortunately there is no if.

Roger is a young Internet addict with a strong roots. He started playing games when he was a child, and he has been playing games for more than 20 years.

A while ago, he was playing an unpopular DND-like game.

As a classic representative of “People and Vegetables Addicted to Food”, Roger was naturally stuck in the first level.

For a whole week, he had been battling with the Guandi boss, a cunning mage-lord.

The end result was ninety-nine throws and disarms.

He had to be opportunistic for this.

As a result, when he was looking for modifiers on the Internet, he found a professional mod that was made and uploaded by netizens.

That is a profession called “Xia Yin”.

Roger fell in love at first sight.

“Xia Yin” is a handsome profession based on ancient Chinese knights and Western fantasy rangers.

Most importantly, this class comes with super high magic resistance.

The producer claimed on the message board that he hated mages.

The profession of Xia Yin was designed to be a magician.

It just so happened that Roger had just been abused by the mage lord for a week, and was overjoyed to see this profession.

He couldn’t wait to click Download.

Then it crossed.

“Basic Information: Roger 24 Years Old Human Male Professional Hero Hidden LV5”

“Attributes: Strength 9 Constitution 9 Agility 11 Perception 12 Intelligence 11 Charisma 9”

“Specialty: Steady/Peaceful Qi/Hidden in the City/Light as a Swallow/A Sword in Ten Years (New)”

“Skill (Life): Gathering 49 Herbs 49 Climbing 49 Skinning 25 Wild Survival 20…”

“Skill (Combat): Hide 49 Assault 49 Hidden Weapon Specialization 49 Move Like a Rabbit 49 Domesticate Animals 49…”

“Special: Guilty Mark/Execution Order”

“Resistance: 100% spell resistance…”

An hour later.

Roger was lying comfortably on the couch in his cottage, looking at the attribute panel.

“I finally got the first sin mark.”

“Spell resistance is full; the stats of the new feat are not bad.”

“One Sword in Ten Years (1st Rank Specialty): In every battle, your first three attacks will have four layers of ‘Potential’ feature”

“Potential: The power of the move is increased by 100% per layer”

Roger had a contented smile on his face.

This is an affirmation of his ten years of hard work.

Ten years ago, he traveled to this planet called “Mystra”.

There is no long thing, only the professional mod of “Xia Yin”.

After learning the general situation of the world from the old man in the town, he warned himself:

Don’t waver, be steady!

There are two main reasons:

First, because Roger is very self-aware.

This world is somewhat similar to the game world.

And he is very clear that in the field of games, he is undoubtedly a badass!

It’s impossible that because of the time travel and another career template, Caipu will become a high-level player.

It’s better to leave it to someone else to operate the scene of flipping the table and killing it as soon as you cross the road.

The dishes are about to be cowardly.

Slow development and accumulation of trump cards is the kingly way.

So every time someone invites Roger to take an adventure, his response is:

“Next time.”

“Not going.”

“I’m not very strong…”

Second, because the world is very dangerous!

According to the popular creation myth in Tongma Town, this world is composed of nine planets.

The smallest of them is “Mystra” where Roger is.

Mystra once had a very glorious civilization, but that is long gone.

It is rumored that the terrestrial creatures offended the gods.

The enraged gods bombarded Mystra with nineteenth-level spells for three days and three nights.

The tall buildings were razed to the ground.

The fertile fields are turned into deserts.

Worse yet.

Those who survived the cataclysm were horrified to discover that the aftermath of the 19th-level spell, the Big Bang, lingered in the sky above Mystra—a mass of lingering wild magic turned into a curse.

Under the radiation of magic power, more and more people or beasts are transformed into monsters.

Of course, there are people who benefit from the intensification of magic.

They are the new adventurers of the Mystra Wasteland Age.

But compared to the horrors that breed in the shadows, human beings are too small.

Few of the adventurers who traveled with Roger ten years ago are still active in Tongma Town.

About one in 10 of those have gone to the more magical South for opportunities.

The rest, Roger doesn’t want to recall.

May they rest in peace.

It now appears that Roger’s choice was undoubtedly correct.

Through the hard work day after day, he finally became a little bit stronger and truly possessed the ability to walk out of Tongma Town.

Of course, there was another reason for his ten-year stay in Novice Village.

This is related to the profession of “Xia Yin”:

As a chivalrous man, Roger doesn’t have any particularly outstanding attributes.

His six attributes are only a little higher than the average person of Mystra (9 points on average), and slightly inferior to the adventurers.

Xia Yin’s skill set is ordinary, and his expertise is also unique.

Only the special ability makes people shine.

“Xia Yin” initially comes with two special abilities, namely “Sinner Mark” and “Execution Order”.

It was the former that made Roger the Frog’s natural enemy.

“Mark of Sin: You can choose to lock the mark of sin on a type of monster, and by killing that type of monster continuously, you can get excess attribute bonuses”

For example, the attribute bonus brought by the magic frog is the increase of spell resistance.

And in the process of killing monsters ~IndoMTL.com~ sin marks will continue to accumulate on a progress bar.

When the progress bar is full.

“Xia Yin” will receive a special feat as a reward.

Correspondingly, since then, he will no longer be able to obtain attributes from this type of monster.

Commonly known as “graduated”.

After getting this special ability, Roger tried some common little monsters around Tongma Town:

Kill the Yellow Wind Rabbit to improve hearing.

Kill the bush goblins and increase X-ability.

Kill the little earth demon and increase the affinity of the earth element.

Honestly, they’re all useless attributes.

Until one time.

He threw the mark on a young and ignorant Frog Frog while collecting herbs.

The story of Yuntai Mountain’s frog hunter begins…

The initial spell resistance of the Xia Yin class is 40%.

Ten years of frog hunter career allowed Roger to brush his spell resistance to 100%——

If one day he accidentally becomes the Mage killer, the 164,250 magic frogs must take full responsibility.

Now, Roger, who has completed his first sin mark, is at ease.

He knows that the accumulation of these ten years is enough to let him walk out of Tongma Town.

He was lying on the bed and used the “Qi Qi” to calculate a fortune for himself.

The hexagram is displayed.

Tomorrow is auspicious, it is better to travel, and it is better to kill the enemy.

The next morning.

The Lord’s Mansion of Tongma Town.

Roger floated up alone and tore off the three-year-old reward.

“Shi Luo Yao, here I come.”

He was about to turn around and leave gracefully, but was stopped by two tall guards.
