Chương 3: School Belles, First Encounter with Dire Beasts

Biên tập viên: Atlas Studios

Zhou Han did not waste any time and walked into the entrance of the Fog Forest.

At the entrance was a door of light with inexplicable energy flowing through it.

As soon as he entered, a light flashed and Zhou Han's figure instantly disappeared.

He felt a brief tearing sensation on his body and soon heard the prompt.

[System prompt: The current realm is the Fog Forest. This area is a combat area. Players can attack each other. Please pay attention to your safety!]

Hearing the system notification, Zhou Han's eyes narrowed.

The meaning was obvious. In this area, players could kill each other. This was even crueler.

As the name suggested, there was a thin white fog floating in the air.

The visibility was very low, and one could vaguely hear the low roars of dire beasts.

Even though he had the enhanced Rusted Iron Sword, Zhou Han did not get carried away. If he was surrounded by wild monsters, it would not be easy for him.

Therefore, to be cautious, Zhou Han's current strategy was to find wild monsters that were alone and kill them.

This way, it was the safest.

The development period in the early stages was the most difficult. As long as he got through it, it would be much easier later on.

Having made the decision, Zhou Han carefully explored the forest.

After walking for about three to four hundred meters, he was lucky to finally encounter a lone wild monster.

It looked like a chicken, but it was several times larger than an ordinary chicken. Moreover, it had a green-gray shell all over its body, and its defense looked very strong.

"Cuckoo!"

At this moment, it was holding its crown high and crying loudly as if no one was around.

"Appraisal!" Zhou Han chanted in his mind.

Soon, the attributes of this wild monster appeared on the virtual interface.

[Iron Rock Chicken]

[Grade: Ordinary]

[Level: 1]

[Health: 300]

[Attack: 23]

[Defense: 10]

[Skill: Iron Rock Shield (The body is covered with a layer of iron rock. Increases defense by 3 points for 10 seconds. Cooldown: 60 seconds)]

[Description: Its defense is very strong. New players are advised not to fight it head-on. Otherwise, bear the consequences!]

After reading it, Zhou Han finally knew why so many players died.

These wild monsters are indeed very strong,

With 23 Attack, it only needed to attack five times to easily finish off a player.

After all, novice players had no defense, and their HP was only 100 points.

No wonder the arrogant Ye Chen was instantly killed by a Level 1 monster.

Relying on the system-issued initial weapons alone, the player only had 15 Attack, 0 Defense, and 100 HP, so it was purely courting death by fighting the wild monsters alone.

"The Iron Rock Chicken has 300 HP!"

'If I trigger the effect of tetanus, I'll only need three seconds to kill it!' Zhou Han thought.

However, the chance of triggering tetanus is only 50%, so if he did not trigger it, he would be finished.

Zhou Han was still a little worried.

"Just three hits. If I don't trigger the tetanus effect after three hits, I have to escape!"

This was because the Iron Rock Chicken only needed five attacks to kill Zhou Han.

'I'd be lying if I said I wasn't nervous.'

"Whew!"

After making his choice and planning his escape route, Zhou Han took a deep breath.

He launched a surprise attack on the self-absorbed Iron Rock Chicken.

Bang!

The iron sword struck the Iron Rock Chicken and felt a huge resistance. Its defense was indeed very strong.

-20

Red damage values floated out on the cockscomb.

With only 20 points of damage, even if it was enhanced, it would take 30 strikes to kill it with just normal attacks. After such a long time, the wild monster would have already killed him.

"I'm out of luck! Tetanus didn't trigger!"

It seemed that the Iron Rock Chicken was a little confused.

Actually, it had long noticed Zhou Han, but when it saw that the other party was a newbie and was still alone, it ignored him.

It did not expect Zhou Han to dare to provoke it alone.

"Again!"

Zhou Han took this opportunity to stab again, but he still did not trigger the special effect.

"Cuckoo!"

The Iron Rock Chicken was furious. Its sharp beak pecked Zhou Han.

-23

A painful feeling came. The huge difference in strength made Zhou Han stagger a few steps back.

The Iron Rock Chicken took advantage of the situation and spread its wings, pouncing on Zhou Han.

-23

Zhou Han was shocked. He had already lost 46 HP.

He raised his iron sword and slashed.

If this attack did not trigger the effect, he would have to escape.

[System prompt: You have successfully triggered the special effect 'Tetanus'. The Iron Rock Chicken is currently in a tetanus state. Within ten seconds, it will lose 100 HP per second.]

"Good! It's done!"

The system notification sounded like heavenly music. Zhou Han was overjoyed.

He put away his iron sword and hurriedly distanced himself from the Iron Rock Chicken.

Now, only three seconds were needed. The Iron Rock Chicken would definitely die.

Zhou Han would definitely not be stupid enough to continue fighting it.

-100

Bang!

Three seconds later, the huge body of the Iron Rock Chicken fell to the ground. Zhou Han wiped the sweat on his forehead and smiled.

[Congratulations, you have killed a Level 1 Iron Rock Chicken and obtained 1 enhancement point, 1 experience point, and 5 copper coins.]

After seeing the experience points accumulated on the interface, Zhou Han was very happy.

This first battle was won without any mishaps.

He picked up five copper coins from the floor.

The currency of the Godfiend Continent was divided into copper, silver, and gold coins.

A gold coin was worth a hundred silver coins. It was worth ten thousand copper coins.

Therefore, if one wishes to obtain a gold coin for a day in the city, he would have to kill 2,000 Level 1 wild monsters in three days.

Of course, as the level and grade of the monsters killed increased, the benefits obtained would naturally increase.

"Huh? Equipment dropped?"

When Zhou Han was packing up the copper coins, he discovered that there was a black shirt beside the Iron Rock Chicken's corpse.

He was immediately a little excited to have come to the Iron Rock Chicken.

He immediately picked it up.

[Congratulations, you have obtained equipment 'Cotton Robe'. Do you want to appraise the attributes of this equipment?]

"Yes!" Zhou Han hurriedly nodded in agreement.

He did not expect to obtain equipment after killing the first dire beast. His luck was not bad.

After using appraisal, all the attributes appeared on the virtual interface.

[Cotton Robe]

[Grade: Ordinary]

[Type: Armor Equipment]

[Attributes: Defense +2]

[Description: Black fabric. Looks cold in it, and it's quite warm, but its defense is average.]

After seeing the effect, Zhou Han took off his school uniform and changed into the robe.

He looked good in black but most importantly, his defense was no longer 0.

Chương 4: HP Recovery Effect, Powerful Defense

Biên tập viên: Atlas Studios

[System prompt: Your current enhancement point has been detected as 1. Do you want to enhance the Cotton Robe?]

As soon as he put it on, the system prompted him to enhance it.

"Oh? It only needs 1 enhancement point?" Zhou Han was pleasantly surprised.

If that were the case, it would be awesome!

[The number of enhancement points required for an item depends on the quality and rarity of the item!]

In other words, this robe was too trashy!

However, Zhou Han did not mind. It was already good enough that he had a piece of equipment to wear now.

"Just enhance it directly!"

[You have activated the Talent—Infinite Enhancement. It has consumed 1 enhancement point. You have successfully enhanced the Ordinary equipment 'Cotton Robe' once. The new attributes have been updated. Please check!]

A white light flashed and a new attribute slowly appeared on the paper.

[Cotton Robe +1]

[Grade: Ordinary]

[Type: Armor Equipment]

[Attributes: Defense+26]

[Special Effect: Beginner HP Recovery Effect. After wearing this equipment, you will recover 20 HP per second. (HP limit cannot be exceeded)]

[Description: It has an automatic healing effect. Mom won't have to worry about my remaining HP anymore.]

"Wow! This effect is strong!"

After reading it, Zhou Han was overjoyed.

Defense directly increased by 26 points and there was an additional Beginner HP Recovery Effect.

This was the prelude to taking off!

Without another word, Zhou Han put on his clothes.

[System prompt: It has been detected that you are not at full health. Beginner HP Recovery has been triggered!]

+20

Soon, the HP he had lost from fighting with the Iron Rock Chicken just now was instantly restored.

"Awesome!"

"SSS talent is awesome!" Zhou Han exclaimed excitedly in his heart.

With [Cotton Robe +1] in hand, if Zhou Han encountered the [Iron Rock Chicken] now, he could directly fight it head-on.

Even if he didn't trigger [Tetanus], he could still kill it.

With powerful defense, coupled with the special effect of healing, he could easily kill any Level 1 monster now.

Zhou Han felt refreshed. Without wasting any time, he began to search for traces of Level 1 wild monsters.

As a novice map, there were naturally many Level 1 wild monsters.

However, most of them appeared in groups of more than ten.

It was very lethal, and Zhou Han would not take the initiative to provoke it now.

After all, not only did one have to fight wild monsters, but one also had to be wary of players' sneak attacks.

Therefore, that kind of protracted battle should be avoided if possible.

Zhou Han continued to search the forest.

Whoosh!

As he heard a sound, a black shadow attacked when he had just passed a large tree.

Zhou Han felt sharp claws scratch his back and felt a burning pain.

He hurriedly turned around.

"You have a death wish!"

Seeing that the black shadow was about to attack, he hurriedly drew his iron sword and slashed at it.

Bang!

The black shadow was hit directly and looked at Zhou Han with some fear.

It didn't expect the sharp claws to cause so little damage to the person in front of it. It didn't make sense.

Meanwhile, Zhou Han also activated the appraisal and saw the attributes of the black shadow.

[Shadow Squirrel]

[Grade: Ordinary]

[Level: 1]

[Health: 290]

[Attack: 35]

[Defense: 6]

[Skill: Shadow Claw (Temporarily increases attack power and deals a fatal blow to the enemy)]

[Description: Good at stealth and raiding in the shadows. A nightmare for novice players.]

There was actually 35 Attack, so if Zhou Han had not equipped the [Cotton Robe], he would probably be finished now.

"Beast! You actually killed so many people!"

He saw the corpses of several players on the ground. They must have been ambushed and killed by the Shadow Squirrel in such a way.

Whoosh!

Just as Zhou Han was checking, the Shadow Squirrel came over again.

"It's about time. Die!"

Zhou Han also rushed forward and slashed fiercely. The main reason was that he did not have any skills now, so he could only attack normally.

After four attacks, the effect of [Tetanus] was successfully triggered.

"Ha! Trying to escape?"

Seeing the Shadow Squirrel escape into the distance, Zhou Han sneered.

These wild monsters were quite intelligent. They knew that they could not defeat them, so they did not fight them head-on.

Fortunately, it was hit by [Tetanus]. Otherwise, it would have really escaped.

Two seconds later, the Shadow Squirrel fell out of the tree.

[System prompt: You have successfully killed a Level 1 wild monster, Shadow Squirrel. You have obtained 1 enhancement point, 1 experience point, and 5 copper coins.]

However, no equipment dropped this time.

Zhou Han did not mind. He could not be so lucky every time.

"System, can I undergo the second enhancement?" Zhou Han asked after obtaining the enhancement points.

[Sorry, the second enhancement requires ten enhancement points. Detected that your enhancement points are not enough. Please work hard to earn enhancement points and enhance it again!]

"Just 10 points? Good!"

"I'll be able to do it after killing another nine Level 1 monsters!" Zhou Han was filled with enthusiasm because he was still filled with anticipation for the second enhancement.

After packing up the copper coins, Zhou Han started hunting again.

[System prompt: You have successfully killed a Level 1 wild monster, Shadow Squirrel. You have obtained 1 enhancement point, 1 experience point, and 5 copper coins.]

[System prompt: You have successfully killed the Level 1 wild monster, Black Dog. You have obtained 1 enhancement point, 1 experience point, and 5 copper coins.]

[System prompt: You have successfully killed a Level 1 wild monster, Poison Spike Worm. You have obtained 1 enhancement point, 1 experience point, and 5 copper coins.]

...

With the special effect of Beginner HP Recovery, Zhou Han had many chances to make mistakes.

His movement technique and combat skills had also been honed a lot in the process of fighting.

Therefore, he was more efficient than before.

The notifications of killing wild monsters kept coming.

"Now I have 9 enhancement points!"

"I'm just a little bit away from the second enhancement!" Zhou Han glanced at the interface and muttered happily to himself.

Searching carefully through the jungle, Zhou Han heard a commotion not far away and a shrill cry.

He was amused when he looked at it.

"Ah! So it's two cats in heat!"

"I'm just short of an enhancement point. You guys will do!"

Zhou Han prepared to sneak over, but they quickly detected him.

"Meow…"

Having been interrupted, the two black cats were abnormally angry. They bared their teeth, and their eyes revealed a fierce glint, wanting to tear Zhou Han apart.

They were as large as ordinary wolves.

Now, their hair was standing on end as they stared at Zhou Han. Their cautious nature made them not take the initiative to attack but constantly probe.
