In the Zero Era, materials were still quite valuable, fetching about 50 Copper Coins when sold to the System. Unfortunately, with the initial batch of five million limited helmets and the fact that almost no one was engaging in crafting professions at this stage, reselling to players in those professions would have yielded much better profits.
However, at least it was a no-cost transaction; any sale would be a profit!
Yi Tianchen tossed the Wolf Fang into his bag and glanced again at the Scruffy Wolves wandering not far away. A spark of excitement lit up his eyes. Although these Scruffy Wolves were tough opponents, they offered high experience points and could drop materials—perfect for leveling up and making money simultaneously!
Without further delay, Yi Tianchen brandished his Serpent Shadow Sword and charged forward. The first target he encountered was a freshly spawned Scruffy Wolf.
This wasn’t originally part of Yi Tianchen’s plan, but it had appeared suddenly and blocked his path, making it an immediate target. Otherwise, he might have faced a swarm of them; while he could handle it, his efficiency in defeating monsters would undoubtedly decrease.
“Roar!”
After being attacked, the Scruffy Wolf let out a furious roar, baring its sharp white fangs as it lunged at Yi Tianchen.
“Get lost!”
Faced with the charging Scruffy Wolf, Yi Tianchen frowned. As he shouted coldly, he sidestepped and delivered a powerful kick to the wolf's abdomen, sending it flying.
Immediately after, Yi Tianchen dashed forward. Taking advantage of the Scruffy Wolf’s momentary instability, he brought down his Serpent Shadow Sword with precision, striking hard against the wolf's spine. However, the hardness of its bones caused a slight numbness in his hands.
Yet this strike triggered a bleeding effect!
In an instant, the struck Scruffy Wolf glowed with a green light as six damage numbers popped up in succession, causing a significant chunk of its Health Points to vanish.
-166! -17! -17! -17! -17! -17!
Seeing this, Yi Tianchen showed no mercy. He rushed forward, striking with his sword in a series of two swift blows, directly sending the Scruffy Wolf staggering back. Then, he leaped into the air, executing a downward slash that struck the wolf's neck.
Weak Point Attack! -255!
The Scruffy Wolf howled in agony as it fell, and by sheer luck, it dropped a Wolf Fang, which quietly landed in the grass, glimmering with a cold, pale light.
With a slight smile, Yi Tianchen picked up the Wolf Fang and also retrieved a Copper Coin that had scattered among the roots of the grass. Standing up, a cool breeze swept through, carrying a faint scent of fresh grass and flowers. The leaves rustled gently, creating a serene atmosphere in the forest.
"Just 12% left!"
After killing a few more Scruffy Wolves, Yi Tianchen's experience reached 88%. Leveling up to 9 was within reach; how far could level 10 be?
Five minutes later, the depths of the forest remained tranquil. As another Scruffy Wolf fell with a mournful cry, a dazzling golden light erupted from Yi Tianchen, scattering throughout the silent woods in a mysterious display.
Level 9!
He allocated the five free attribute points to strength once again. With each major attribute increase, Yi Tianchen's confidence soared. Even his gaze towards the Scruffy Wolves changed; there was no trace of pity left, only a hint of excitement hidden beneath.
"Kill..."
A chilling whisper echoed through the quiet forest. Bathed in the faint moonlight, a figure swiftly darted between two Scruffy Wolves. The sword glimmered with deep blue light, as if possessing superpowers that froze in mid-air against the darkness, creating an enchanting spectacle.
The sound of blades tearing through flesh echoed, a sharp "Chop, chop, chop..."
Footsteps rustled through the grass, creating a soft "Rustling" sound...
A furious roar filled the air, a continuous cry of anger...
"Die, die, die..." came the excited voice of someone caught up in the moment!
Ten minutes later...
Half an hour later...
An hour later...
Two hours later...
"Chop..."
The serpent-shadowed sword, glimmering with a deep blue sheen, struck precisely under Yi Tianchen's control, piercing the abdomen of the Scruffy Wolf before him. With a deep gash appearing, the Scruffy Wolf, who had long harbored thoughts of "the sooner you die, the sooner you can be reborn," finally found relief and collapsed peacefully---
99%!
"Uh... are you kidding me?" Yi Tianchen exclaimed in frustration. After battling fiercely for over two hours, he found himself stuck at this last point.
Taking a deep breath, Yi Tianchen raised his gaze and spotted a freshly spawned Scruffy Wolf pacing back and forth under a nearby tree, its demeanor quite arrogant.
Yi Tianchen paused for a moment. "It's you!"
He dashed forward, suddenly halting his steps, executing a sharp left turn to evade the Scruffy Wolf's first attack—MISS!
Sliding past, he swiftly countered with an upward thrust of his sword.
Hit!
The Scruffy Wolf immediately retaliated, swinging its front paws with the intent to tear Yi Tianchen apart. But by then, Yi Tianchen had already slipped away, deftly moving to the wolf's rear. He thrust his sword into the center of the wolf's raised hindquarters.
Yi Tianchen froze for a moment. "Oh no, I struck the wrong spot!"
Sure enough, the Scruffy Wolf shot him a resentful glance that sent a shiver down his spine, nearly causing him to drop the Snake Shadow Sword in his hand.
"Slash..."
Unfazed, Yi Tianchen swung his sword, blood splattering as a notification rang in his ears—
System Notification: Successfully killed [Scruffy Wolf] ×1, gained 300 experience points, Level increased to 10, awarded 5 free attribute points!
System Notification: Congratulations on reaching Level 10! You have qualified for job advancement. Please visit any Main City to find a job instructor to complete your job advancement!
"Finally level 10!" Yi Tianchen let out a long breath as he heard the notification.
Reaching level 10 meant that Yi Tianchen had finally earned the qualification to leave the novice village. However, before he could do so, he needed to return and find the legendary Elder Villager. He had to complete a trial mission to obtain the Courage Trial Certificate in order to successfully join any Main City.
After picking up a Copper Coin, Yi Tianchen started running back, carefully avoiding any monsters in several Monster Zones along the way. For him, the most important thing right now was to quickly obtain the Courage Trial Certificate and head to the city to learn new skills. Once he had skills, leveling up his Speed would become much easier.
Upon returning to the small village, Yi Tianchen used the local mini-map to directly locate the village chief. The chief was an old man who looked to be in his seventies or eighties, with a long white beard, standing at the center of the village and kindly watching every player that passed by.
"Chief, I want to leave this place!" Yi Tianchen approached and got straight to the point.
Seeing Yi Tianchen, the chief was momentarily taken aback, but then his eyes lit up as he nodded and chuckled, "Young adventurer, your growth has proven your strength. It is time for you to venture into the wider world outside. However, getting into the city is not that simple. If you can pass my trial..."
"Just tell me what it is; I can do it!" Before the Elder Villager could finish speaking, Yi Tianchen interrupted. The Elder Villager was too long-winded; it was clear he was just trying to introduce the mission, so why not get straight to it?
"Haha, good! Before we begin, you can decide on the difficulty of the trial you wish to accept!" The Elder Villager stroked his beard thoughtfully and said, "There are four levels of difficulty: Easy, Normal, Hard, and Legendary. What difficulty will you choose?"
"Easy? Normal? Hard? Legendary?" Yi Tianchen repeated each option before suddenly becoming serious and saying, "Legendary!"
"Good choice! But I must remind you that if you fail the mission, you'll have to wait 24 hours before you can attempt it again. Are you sure you want to choose the Legendary difficulty?" the Elder Villager cautioned.
"24 hours?" Yi Tianchen exhaled deeply. However, as the saying goes, fortune favors the bold; high-difficulty missions would surely offer great rewards. He nodded firmly and said, "No changes; I'll go with Legendary!"
System Notification: You have accepted the Courage Trial mission. Current mission difficulty level is Legendary. If you fail, it will refresh after 24 hours!
After bidding farewell to the village chief, Yi Tianchen immediately pulled up the specific details of the mission---
