  Li Yi’s physical attack had also reached a terrifying 81 points! If he were to return to the beginner’s zone now, those players without any equipment would be like child’s play to Li Yi. He would be very confident in his attack now!

  However, Li Yi would not casually kill other players unless they came to provoke him.

  Li Yi held his greatsword and continued to search for Wild Wolves in the forest. He could not wait to find a monster to try his new equipment.

  Not long after, he found a Wild Wolf that had just respawned. Li Yi immediately rushed over there, bypassing the attack of the Wild Wolves and directly attacked it.

  “Chi!”

  “-71.”

  It was so sharp. One hit had taken away more than a quarter of the health of the Wild Wolf. Moreover, this was not even their weak point. This kind of superior feeling was simply too great.

  Along the way, Li Yi still had a large amount of HP and the support of his recovery ability. At this moment, killing two Wild Wolves at once was not too difficult.

  Li Yi had been searching for a second elite Wild Wolf this whole time. He was looking forward to the possibility of the elite Wild Wolf dropping another high-level piece of equipment or something. In doing so, it could make his journey more comfortable.

  …

  Right as Li Yi was trying his best to search for one, he saw a person who sat under a tree in the distance. Looking at his clothes, one could tell that he was not a player.

  “I actually met an NPC in the wild. This is a great thing!”

  He quickly killed the Wild Wolf that had blocked his way and walked towards the NPC with large strides.

  This NPC was a middle-aged man. However, it looked like he was seriously injured and was not breathing well. It seemed like he would not live long!

  Li Yi knew that NPCs that were injured in the wild usually had missions. Moreover, the missions were usually not simple and the difficulty was usually a little high. However, the rewards after completing the missions were also extremely bountiful.

  Walking up to the NPC, Li Yi looked at the nickname above the NPC’s head and could not help but be stunned.

  “It’s him?”

  Traveler — Harper!

  In the world of Divine Revelation, this kind of traveler had an extremely special NPC job. It was known as the most miserable and conscientious NPC in history. Their backgrounds were all different, but there was one thing that they all had in common.

  They were either about to die, or they were seriously ill and were on the brink of death.

  Before they died, they would hand the mission over to the first player they met, and this traveler — Harper, just so happened to have encountered Li Yi at this moment.

  He was the key person in opening the level 10 dungeon — Robber Augustus Cave. As long as he completed this chain mission, he would be able to open this dungeon, and it was the only dungeon that was level 10 in the Novice Village.

  Most importantly, the ring on the traveler’s hand would become the first perfect-grade equipment after the final chain mission was completed. This was definitely a very tempting mission.

  This was because Harper was very famous, and Li Yi had a fond memory of him!

  Li Yi immediately asked, “Respected traveler, you seem to be seriously injured. Is there anything I can help you with?”

  The NPCs in Divine Revelation were very intelligent. They should be treated similarly to wise people in the real world.

  If you did not respect them, even if they died, they would not give you the mission. This set of words was basically commonly spoken to many NPCs.

  Hearing Li Yi’s words, Harper raised his head with difficulty and spoke with a bitter smile.

  “I do need help, but my injuries are currently beyond redemption. I only hope that you can personally deliver this ring to the Village Chief, Adventurer!”

  As soon as Harper finished speaking, Li Yi received a notification.

  [System Notification: Traveler Harper has issued an E-grade chain mission to you!]

  [Mission Content: Deliver traveler Harper’s ring to the Village Chief!]

  [Mission Rewards: Unknown.]

  [System Notification: Should you choose to accept this mission?]

  Li Yi accepted without hesitation. If he were not to accept, what was the point of him approaching the traveler?

  “I will definitely complete it, please rest assured!!” Li Yi replied firmly.

  “Cough cough…… Then I am relieved. You should leave now. I want to rest for a while. Help me comfort the Village Chief. Tell him to not be too sad!”

  After saying that, Harper took off the ring with great difficulty and handed it to Li Yi. He did not continue speaking and lowered his head to wait for the arrival of death.

  After Li Yi said farewell to Harper, he also quickly walked towards the village.

  …

  On his way back, he encountered the Wild Wolves that had respawned. He did not waste his time ending them. In any case, he only needed to use two or three strikes to take them away.

  However, there was no equipment dropped. All of them were copper coins.

  After a while, Li Yi finally arrived at a place close to the Novice Village. He could see that there were large groups of players who chatted in groups of two or three.

  As long as the Black Rats respawned, they would end their conversations and begin their journey to fight the monsters.

  When the player killed a Black Rat, he suddenly felt that his eyes were a little dazzled from something shining. He immediately looked over and saw Li Yi returning from afar. For a moment, this player was stunned.

  He had to be stunned. That person he saw carried a huge sword that was as tall as a human. The black wolf head on the hilt of the sword looked as if it was real. The body of the sword shone under the sun. It was an extremely cool sight to see!

  Compared to the small broken sword in his hand, he wishes he could just simply throw it away.

  “What is that? Where did this person get his equipment? He’s really cool!!!”

  “If I didn’t look at the map, that person’s coordinates were red. I would have thought that an NPC had come to the beginner’s village. However, I’m sure that the quality of this greatsword is high. Our weapons are incomparable to it.”

  “I feel that there’s definitely something going on here. Could this guy be an inner player? How long has it been? He’s already got such a cool greatsword?”

  “Hehe! What’s there to be jealous about? He’s a God anyway. I’m not going to talk to you guys anymore. I’ll go up and add him as a friend!”

  “.……”

  As soon as these words were said, everyone started whispering around one another. Even the Black Rat that had just respawned did not seem as fun anymore. These people immediately swarmed towards Li Yi.

  Li Yi looked at the crowd in front of him and did not say anything as he squeezed his way through. Right now, the players were all at level 1. In terms of strength, Li Yi definitely had the upper hand. They could not stop Li Yi at all.

  Li Yi forcefully squeezed his way in and left behind a group of players who looked like little wives. However, there were still some who did not give up and kept trying to start a conversation behind Li Yi.

  Li Yi ignored them and walked straight towards the Village Chief’s house. At this moment, the Village Chief was standing outside the house. He smiled as he looked at the player who approached him. It seemed that he was very happy with the player’s arrival.

  Li Yi directly went forward and said, “Village Chief, a traveler named Harper asked me to give this ring to you.”

  “Huh?” The Village Chief took the ring and seemed to have thought of something. He spoke with an unsightly expression, “Little Harper? Where is he? Why isn’t he here?”

  “When I met him, he was on the verge of death. This is something that he requested to hand over to the Village Chief! !” Li Yi replied.

  “My…… Little Harper!!!” The Village Chief’s eyes were brimmed red and his face turned furious. “It must be those damn Bandits. Adventurer, you must help me get rid of them!!”

  [System Notification: Mission has been updated!]

  [Mission Content: Head to the outside of the village and kill 100 Bandits to avenge Little Harper (part two of the mission)]

  [Mission Reward: Unknown!]

  “I will! Don’t worry, Village Chief!” Li Yi nodded and walked towards the door.

  A little fatty sneakily ran towards the door and spoke with a smile, “Your weapon is definitely not for sale, but you must have obtained a lot of game coins. I’ll offer you a dollar for a silver coin. I don’t know if you’ll sell it, but I stand on this offer!”

  Li Yi had killed monsters for so long, but he only had six silver coins and some copper coins on him. He did not have enough, so he definitely would not sell it.

  In this world, 1 gold coin equates to 100 silver coins. Whereas 100 silver coins equate to 10,000 copper coins!

  Li Yi directly rejected the fatty’s offer. The demand for game coins was far from its peak, and the price was relatively cheap. Selling it would be a loss.

  Fatty looked at Li Yi who had turned around and left. He wanted to say something, but he hesitated. In the end, he gave up. Then, he carefully looked around and quickly left the scene.

  Li Yi went outside of the village. The group of people that had asked to be brought along with him were looking at him from afar. They did not go forward, as if they were waiting for something.

  After Li Yi had walked some distance, a few people immediately squeezed through the players and cut off Li Yi’s path of retreat. They surrounded Li Yi with an evil smile on their faces.

  The young man who led them spoke arrogantly with a ruffian look on his face, “Kid, I’ll buy your greatsword. Give him the money.”

  The underling beside that person directly took out a copper coin and threw it at Li Yi’s feet.

  Li Yi glanced at the people who surrounded him…… He internally scoffed at the person who intended on buying a greatsword with a copper coin.

  Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

  Assessing this situation, Li Yi smiled and replied, “Hehe! What if I don’t sell it?”

  “Don’t sell it? Hehe, did you hear that? He said he doesn’t want to sell it! ! You tell him what will happen if he doesn’t sell it!” The leader of the group closed his eyes and shook his head as he asked his subordinate to explain.

  “Don’t sell it? If you don’t sell it, then you will be chased by our Proud Guild people until you are forced to retreat!!” The subordinate was extremely cooperative. He flashed the small broken sword in his hand and spoke fiercely.

  The others even took a few steps forward and looked at Li Yi with evil smiles on their faces. It was as if they were going to beat him up.

  “Proud Guild?”

  Li Yi had recalled something, Divine Revelation did have notorious guilds around. They specialized in robbing bosses, seizing territories, seizing leveling spots, and selling them to others at a higher price.

  The toxic people within Divine Revelation were precisely this group of people. Since that was the case, there was no need for Li Yi to be so polite with them.

  “If you’re afraid, hurry up and hand over your greatsword. This greatsword is just a token of surrender. I’ll allow you to join our guild. In the future, you’ll be able to live a luxurious life with me. Do you understand?”

  The leader pointed at Li Yi with an expression that looked as though victory was within his grasp.

  “Hehe! Come on you trash, let me see what you can do!” Li Yi waved at them as a reply.

  Killing a white name player for no reason would result in a red name. When one has a red name, the drop rate of exp and items would be greatly reduced. After dying, they would also drop a few important pieces of equipment. They could only stay in the wild and wait for three hours for the red name to disappear.

  Li Yi had to complete a mission. He definitely could not let his exp and drop rate to decrease. However, if he was attacked and had to fight back, then there would be no problem. He would not have a red name status.

  “Get rid of him for me. If the greatsword doesn’t drop, then continue to squat him.”

  “If you have the ability, don’t leave the Novice Village for the rest of your life!!”

  When the leader heard this, he immediately roared in anger. The few people under him also followed the command and attacked Li Yi.

  The surrounding people also shook their heads in secret. In the early stages, there were no skills or equipment. Their defense and HP were also extremely high. Even if you had a greatsword, it would not be enough. After all, it was difficult for two fists to fight against four pairs of hands.

  It was on him for picking up the greatsword! It would be a wasted opportunity for others if it were not to be stolen!

  The few of them had cold smiles on their faces. They looked as if they had already succeeded when they saw the attack that was about to land on Li Yi.

  Li Yi did not move at all towards this little attack. He allowed their attacks to hit his body.

  “-11!”

  “-13!”

  “-13!”

  “.……”

  [System Notification: You have received a malicious attack from a player. You will not be affected by getting a red name if you counterattack or kill the player!]

  After a round of attacks, the smiles on the faces of the five attacking players froze. They widened their eyes and looked at Li Yi who currently stood in front of them.

  The HP bar on Li Yi’s head was not even one-fifth gone. Moreover, his HP had recovered rapidly. Was his HP recovery rate really that terrifying?

  At this moment, everyone could see Li Yi’s HP bar. It was a total of 735 HP. Moreover, he was recovering at least 5 HP every second!

  While they were still in a daze, Li Yi directly attacked. Their necks were already exposed. Before they even had a chance to react, they were killed in an instant.

  “-160! Weak Point Damage!”

  “-158! Weak Point Damage!”

  “-151! Weak Point Damage!”

  “-148! Weak Point Damage!”

  Almost all of the current players had no equipment, and they were only level 1. Their maximum HP was around 100, and their defenses were not high either. When Li Yi’s greatsword slashed them down, it was no different from chopping vegetables.

  With such a high attack bonus from the greatsword, the weak point damage was definitely an instant kill. There was no surprise at all.

  Seeing that his four underlings were instantly killed by the greatsword without any chance of resisting, the leader roared angrily.

  “You…… You’re definitely a hacker, a cheat!! I want to report this to customer service!!! How can you have more than 700 HP?”

  Li Yi did not want to talk too much with these people, so he directly swung his sword and killed the jumping clown who had organized the robbery on the spot.

  Then, he carried his greatsword on his back and left, behind him were five corpses and a dumbfounded crowd.

  After an unknown period of time, everyone finally reacted and looked in the direction where Li Yi had left. However, Li Yi had already disappeared.

  …

  After he traveled for half an hour, Li Yi had finally arrived at his destination. There was a small hill in front of him, with a small gathering place on top of it. There were many ferocious-looking Bandits that wandered outside!

  [Level 4 Ferocious Bandit (normal)]

  [HP: 350]

  [Physical Attack: 37]

  [Physical Defense: 10]

  A level 4 Bandit would have a little more HP and have a higher attack. Most people would definitely not want to encounter this Bandit.

  Li Yi liked it very much. With a low HP and defense, this monster was a good target to level up to!

  Li Yi took a big step forward. His broad greatsword flashed with a faint glow. He immediately slashed at the neck of one of the Bandits.

  “-141! Weak Point Damage!”

  The Bandit trembled a few times after he received a heavy blow to his vital point. His body staggered forward and he almost fell to the ground!

  Li Yi took advantage of this moment to continue his attack. He raised his greatsword once again and continued to attack the same part.

  After that, he slashed twice in a row without giving the Bandit any chance to resist. This kind of rhythmic attack was one of the commonly used methods in the game.

  To make the opponent lose their balance and attack continuously along with the force, such a practical method was very effective against monsters that did not have superior armor or other skills.

  Li Yi then easily dodged the Bandits’ attack. The Bandit struggled with only a little bit of HP left, and directly slashed towards his shoulder.

  “-72! Weak Point Damage!”

  Under Li Yi’s continuous attacks, the level 4 Bandit fell to the ground and could not get up. Killing monsters above his level would give him a lot of experience points.

  [System Notification: You have killed a Level 4 Ferocious Bandit (normal). Obtained 23 experience points]

  [Talent Trigger: Obtained 3.5 HP, 0.035 HP Recovery/second]

  Looking at the experience bar, he was still a little short of leveling up. Li Yi then continued to walk around the gathering place. This kind of low-level Bandit basically posed no threat to Li Yi!

  “Thud!”

  A Bandit lost his life and fell to the ground. He dropped 8 copper coins and a pair of white-board shoes.

  [Equipment: Cloth Shoes]

  [Quality: Normal]

  [Movement Speed: 0.5 m/s]

  [Physical Defense: 3]

  [Equipment Conditions: Level 1]

  Movement speed was a very important attribute when fighting monsters. Speed meant that you could operate better! Although the item given was not very good, the experience given by the Bandit was worth it. Li Yi was already level 2 with 77% of the experience bar being filled, and he was about to level up.

  …

  More than an hour later.

  “Pa!”

  The greatsword of the blade slashed across, and another Bandit fell to the ground. It seemed like a different item had dropped.

  Li Yi was just about to go up and take a look when he saw a golden light emerge from his body. Suddenly, he had leveled up to level 3. He immediately went up to take a look at the dropped items.

  “Huh? A skill book?” Li Yi’s eyes lit up. He immediately rushed forward and picked up the book on the ground to look at the skill description.

  [Item: Heavy Strike (skill book)]

  [Rarity: Normal]

  [Usage Requirement: Warrior Apprentice]

  [Effect: Inflicts 50% damage to the enemy. Additional damage will be added to the critical strike and critical attack! Cooldown time is 5 seconds and consumes 5 MP! The highest level is LV10.]

  It was one of the basic skills of a Warrior Apprentice. It was very practical. It could bring about a considerable improvement in the early stages of the game!

  The number of Bandits killed had long been enough. Li Yi was ready to go back and hand in his mission. Simultaneously, he would replenish his MP. Otherwise, he would not be able to support the usage of this skill.

  He opened his attribute panel.

  [ID: Carefree Dream]

  [Occupation: Warrior Apprentice]

  [Level: 3]

  [5D: Strength 24, Stamina 11, Agility 9, Spirit 10, Intelligence 8]

  [MP Recovery Rate: 0.3/s]

  [Physical Attack: 100]

  [Skills: Heavy Strike Level 1]

  [Equipment: Blade-cutting greatsword, linen hat (normal), linen pants (normal), linen shirt (normal), cloth shoes (normal)]

  [Talent: Blood Devour SSS]

  Li Yi looked at his attributes with satisfaction, and then went into the village to hand in the mission!
