Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Closing the chat window, James Williams checked his gold coins.
142,000 gold coins!
He had earned so much in one day. James Williams was relieved. At this rate, his sister’s surgery fee could be settled.
He needed to upgrade his equipment and skills now. He had already announced that he wanted to get the first clear of Dark Swamp. It would be a big joke if he failed.
He opened the map. The monsters near the Novice Village were too weak for him to level up. He needed to go to a further place to kill monsters so that he and his pets could increase their experience faster.
He glanced at the map and locked onto a place. It was a relatively far camp in the northwest of the map, Camp Yardley.
He walked to the teleportation portal and said to the NPC, “Camp Yardley, northwest countryside.”
[Ding!]
[You have been teleported to the northwest countryside. The cost is 6 gold coins.]
It seemed that a further distance required more gold coins, James Williams sighed.
James Williams arrived at the wasteland. As of now, no one was here to do missions. There were not many people here, to begin with. Moreover, most people would leave after they took a look at the mission. James Williams was the first person who came to accept the mission.
He came to the side of an NPC carrying a scroll.
“Brave adventurer, you are the first person here. I have a mission here that requires your help. Are you willing to accept it?”
[Accept.]
[Reject.]
James Williams nodded. He came here to complete the mission. The first mission might even lead to hidden rewards or dungeons.
[Accept!]
“Brave adventurer, in the distant Haliloh River ahead, there are some ferocious crocodiles that are known as the Mutated Black Caiman Crocodiles. They have blocked the construction of the bridges on both sides of the river. Every time you bring back a Mutated Black Caiman Crocodile skin, you will receive 80 experience points and 15 gold coins.”
James Williams nodded, “This mission is my duty!”
In his previous life, to defeat the Mutated Black Caiman Crocodiles required the cooperation of more than a dozen players. The clearance rate was also very low because most of the time, they gathered in groups and were extremely difficult to deal with.
After accepting the mission, James Williams rushed to his destination and came to the side of the Haliloh River. The surroundings were filled with Mutated Black Caiman Crocodiles, enjoying the tranquility of the evening.
However, an intruder broke their tranquility. James Williams looked at the introduction of the Mutated Black Caiman Crocodiles.
[Mutated Black Caiman Crocodiles]
[Type: Crocodile]
[Attack: 260]
[Defense: 135]
[Health: 1,900]
[Skills: Fang Pierce and Giant Crocodile Tail.]
James Williams wanted to capture the crocodile as a pet, but when he looked at his attributes…
[Hades]
[Level: 14]
[Attack: 172]
[Defense: 154]
[Health: 1,500]
[Agility: 103]
His attributes were not strong enough. He was not qualified to hold out his arm and touch the Mutated Black Caiman Crocodile to have it bound to the Divine Beast Binding System.
After thinking for a while, James Williams decided to give up. He aimed at the pile of crocodiles in front of him and cast the skill, Voodoo Barrier. Although Little Green and Little Orange were still unable to communicate with their master despite being bound to the Divine Beast System, however, based on their master’s emotions, they could sense that their master was about to launch an attack. As a result, Energy Fluctuation and Corrosive Fangs were cast.
The Mutated Black Caiman Crocodile seemed to have felt the threat of the three creatures in front of it. It opened its bloody mouth, which appeared to still have some undigested flesh and blood between its teeth. It roared and crawled over.
The missions that James Williams had accepted were all calculated. The Mutated Black Caiman Crocodile was a melee monster, while he and his two pets had ranged attacks. Logically speaking, as long as he maintained a good distance, the crocodile would not be able to touch him.
Little Orange’s Energy Fluctuation instantly slowed down the surrounding crocodiles. Voodoo Barrier was activated, and the crocodiles in front of him seemed to be trapped in an independent space. They kept crashing into the air wall and in addition to Little Green’s Corrosive Fangs, the dozens of crocodiles in the Voodoo Barrier lost their HP rapidly.
-280!
-310!
-156!
…
Following a series of wails, the crocodiles in the Voodoo Barrier only lasted for five seconds before they died. There was a limited time for the skill, so James Williams could not waste any time. He brought both his pets in front of the Mutated Black Caiman Crocodiles while maintaining a distance of more than two meters in between.
He once again lured some of the crocodiles into the Voodoo Barrier. After the Voodoo Barrier disappeared, James Williams retreated and left the crocodiles’ attack range. Although it would restore their HP, he was also waiting for the cooldown of his skill.
After nearly an hour of slaughter, James Williams had leveled up by two levels. It was becoming more and more difficult to level up now. The level of monsters needed to level up increased according to his level.
Of course, this was applied only to James Williams. If it were any other normal player, they would probably be around level 20 by now. Unfortunately, he had obtained the eternal ring and could only bear the loneliness of being strong.
Now, James Williams was already at level 16.
[Hades]
[Level: 16]
[Attack: 192]
[Defense: 172]
[Health: 1,800]
[Agility: 126]
His attributes were also extraordinary. To ordinary players, his health was now similar to a level 20 boss.
Following this, he began to touch the corpses of the Mutated Black Caiman Crocodiles. A stream of notifications sounded, but he did not want to look at them yet. He would look only when all the rewards had been collected.
[Ding! Congratulations! You have obtained the Mutated Black Caiman Crocodile bone.]
[Ding! Congratulations! You have obtained the Mutated Black Caiman Crocodile skin.]
[Ding! Congratulations! You have obtained a damaged middle-level gold armor.]
…
After collecting all the rewards, James Williams took a look at it and found that the rewards were pretty good.
[Damaged low-level gold bow and arrow: HP reduction of 5 points per second.]
[Damaged middle-level gold armor: 6 HP recovered per second.]
[Mutated Black Caiman Crocodile bone: Could be fused into a weapon to increase the weapon’s toughness.]
[Mutated Black Caiman Crocodile skin: Every 50 sheets could increase the inventory space by 1 slot.]
[Middle-level platinum wizard skill book, Voodoo Realm.]
[Special item skill book +1: An additional skill book could be added on top of this book without affecting the upper limit.]
[120 gold coins.]
