"It was the year 2030 AD. The origin universe game "Divine Revelation" made its grand debut. In this game, the in-game currency could be exchanged for real money, which attracted countless players. Even countries were getting ready to enter the game. But no one knew that Li Yi who had fallen in the War of the Gods returned to this very day when the game was launched with ten years worth of memories from the game. And this time, Li Yi received the SSS Rank Talent – Blood Devour. [SSS Rank Talent, Blood Devour: After slaying any creature, the player would gain 1% fixed Health Point, and life regeneration speed. The effect of this talent can be stacked indefinitely] [Notification: You slew an LV1 Sika Deer, received 1 HP, 0.01 HP regeneration/second] [Notification: You slew an LV5 Elite Goblin, received 7 HP, 0.07 HP regeneration/second] [Notification: You slew an LV10 Legendary Boss – Aoi Flame Green Dragon, received…...] From them, an invincible being who had a health bar even longer than bosses were added to the game. "Report: Li Yi is cheating, the HP of the entire dungeon's monsters added together is still less than his!" "Report: We attacked Li Yi with the joined force of a 1000 players army, but he only lost a slither of health!" "Report: Please tell me, how are we supposed to attack the city with Li YI standing in front of its gates? Many years later, when the game started to fuse with reality, and the War of the Gods began, Li Yi stood at the front alone and faced the gods of the worlds. Only then did the players wake up, "Dear Sir, we're begging you, please have even more HP!""

Blue Star.
In a house.
Li Yi looked at the familiar surroundings and muttered to himself, "Have I been reborn?"
His eyes revealed a hint of surprise. He immediately went to the computer desk and opened the web page to search for more information.
He logged on to a web page and went to the post-bar forum. Most of the titles had similar news.
"Tomorrow's intergenerational universal game Divine Revelation is about to be released."
"Meta-universe virtual reality of 99%, this online game Divine Revelation will be opened to the public on January 1, 2030. People of all ages are welcomed."
"The hopes of over two billion people around the world increases. This is a new starting point, a very new beginning for mankind. Everything that's new is in the game Divine Revelation, check out more here."
"What is the secret origin of the popular virtual reality game made by Divine Company? How do they have such shocking and enticing methods?"
"Hundreds to thousands of gaming helmets have been sold within a few days. Divine Company is urgently restocking the peoples' demands."
"..."
Li Yi looked at the news on the computer screen as he slowly read it all out. At that moment, Li Yi was completely convinced that he had really been reborn. To be more precise, he had been reborn to the day that Divine Revelation was released, which was 10 years ago!
Closing the computer in front of him, he went to the window to take a look at the bustling scene below. Then, a cold light flashed in Li Yi's eyes.
Ever since the rise of technology, the concept of the meta-universe, which was similar to the virtual reality era, appeared in a novel in 1992. During that time, most people who came into contact with it thought that it was just a writer's fantasy. Many people did not even know about the concept at all.
However, it was not until 2021 that a meta-universe technology company got listed on the U.S. stock market. Its market value soared, and a small country made big money by playing games.?Only then did the concept of the meta-universe explode throughout the world.
Originally, according to the trajectory of technology development, 99% of the virtual reality online games in the world would only be born after at least a few decades of technological advancements.
However, the appearance of the Divine Company that created Divine Revelation actually smoothed out the speed of human technological development.
Experts had predicted that even if Earth's technology advanced by leaps and bounds within ten years, it would have still been very difficult to even achieve such heights, one might even say it was impossible!
However, the reality was that this game's popularity had skyrocketed around the world. This was due to the technologically advanced gameplay that was incorporated into this game. Moreover, it was such an advanced virtual reality game that almost acted as a meta-universe, that it made others interested in this game!
Many experts were unable to explain this matter. Some even said that this company was created by aliens. However, no one could find the main root of this company, and no one even knew the identity of these bosses.
The public had only seen a few low-level managers. They themselves did not know anything either. They were just hired to sell VR glasses, gaming helmets, and gaming pods!

After their fruitless search, everyone could only focus on the game Divine Revelation.
However, Li Yi knew that the game Divine Revelation was not a human product, but it was a method created by the gods to invade this world that the humans lived in. They borrowed the concept of the game from the original universe to let the human spirit enter their world so that they could adapt to human behaviors.
When enough lives had begun to connect to the world of the Gods, the Gods had easily opened the Crystal Plane Walls without much effort.
Right now, Li Yi knows that it will take around ten years for this event to occur!
In the little-known areas of the game, there were countless of powerful and terrifying existences that would descend with the gods and plunder this world. They were existences that the players could not match within the game. After these existences were activated, they would immediately start attacking the real world.
As for stopping the Divine Revelation's game from being released and letting the Gods and their plan fail?
That was impossible!
Li Yi knew that he could not stop this flood by himself, not even the country could stop this disaster.
This was because, at this moment, the greedy capitalists of the world had been secretly tied to Divine Revelation by a representative of the Gods.
The only solution now was to increase his strength in the game and to stop the gods ten years later.
After much thought, Li Yi stood up, took out his bank card from his bag, and prepared to leave. He then walked out of the door. With his ten years of gaming experience, even if the Gods descended in this life, they would not be able to invade their world so easily.
However, the first thing he needed to do was to buy the game console.
…
Not long after, Li Yi arrived at one of the Divine Company's sales outlets. This place was exceptionally popular. There were at least a few hundred people that had lined up to buy it, and this was just an extremely small sales outlet.
Li Yi did not queue behind the long line, he just walked straight ahead. What he wanted to do was to buy a game pod. Although the game pod was very expensive, there was no need to queue up. After paying, there would be service staff from the store outlet who would send the game pod to the buyer's home.
The game equipment for Divine Revelation was divided into three — virtual reality glasses (VR glasses), game helmets, and game pods. However, what the players did not know was that the choices of these three were related to one's development after they entered the game.
Before the gods from Divine Revelation completely invaded the real world, with the game equipment, players could be revived in the game.
However, the initial talent that one receives when they enter the game would follow them for the rest of their life. As for this game pod, it had a higher chance of drawing an excellent talent. This special situation was something that VR glasses and game helmets could not compare to.
This was one of the additional conditions that the representatives of the Gods and the capitalists had discussed.
Ten years ago, Li Yi had bought a game helmet because he felt that the game pod was too expensive. There was no need to spend more than half of his savings to play a game. In the end, he got a C-grade talent.
The rarity of talent was divided into E, D, C, B, A, S, SS. As for whether there were higher grades after that, Li Yi did not know. In his previous life, no one had ever gotten a talent above SS!
Talent could be said to be the most important thing when entering the Divine Revelation game. If he had gotten an S-grade talent or a higher grade talent back then, it would have been extremely easy for him to deal with those few demigod-leveled demons.
It could be possible that Li Yi would be able to go head-to-head with a God in this previous life.
"Eh! That kid went to buy a gaming pod. What a prodigal."
"That's right. The price difference between a gaming pod and a gaming helmet is a thousand times more. Moreover, the nutrient fluids that need to be constantly replaced are also extremely expensive. Only fools with a lot of money would buy a gaming pod!"

"Quickly move forward. There are several empty seats in front of you. Be careful not to cut in line!"
"..."
Li Yi did not bother explaining the entire situation to them. If he were to say it directly now, everyone would definitely go crazy for it. Were he to do this, he might even be targeted by the people of Divine Company, especially that extremely mysterious boss of the company.
Anyway, in his memories, even when Li Yi died, the boss of the company still did not appear. However, Li Yi could confirm that he really did exist, because he was the representative of the Gods!
Once he entered the store, the staff warmly came over, and Li Yi directly took out his bank card and gave it to the staff. "I want to buy a game pod, I live in * !"
"That can be arranged!" The staff immediately took the bank card, lightly swiped it on the machine, then entered the address and spoke, "Dear customer, your game pod will be installed in an hour. Here is your invoice."
"Thank you!"
Li Yi took the invoice and left the shop. He bought some necessities across the street and walked home.
…
Not long after he returned home, the staff member from Divine Company rang the doorbell.
Li Yi invited the staff member into the house, and they immediately started the installation of the game pod, finishing it in less than half an hour.
It was still very early, so he just laid on the sofa and watched a movie while he silently waited for Divine Revelation to open at 12 a.m.
…
Time passed very quickly! Li Yi looked at his watch. There were still eight minutes left till the grand opening, so he slowly got up and walked into the game pod.
After he turned on the power, he felt his vision become slightly distorted. He appeared in a pure white area, and then a voice sounded.
"Welcome to the world of Divine Revelation. There is still 7 minutes and 30 seconds before the server opens."
As he watched the time slowly pass, Li Yi focused on his main objectives. In this life, he would have to rely on his own advantages to increase his strength as much as possible.
"You have successfully entered the game. There are still 10 seconds left before the server opens... 2 seconds, 1 second!!"
"Divine Revelation's server has been successfully opened. Please draw your exclusive talent ability"
Listening to the system notification, Li Yi spoke immediately.
"Extract!"
A moment later, Li Yi heard a notification sound.
[System Notification: You have extracted an SSS grade talent — Blood Devour!]
"SSS-grade?"
Li Yi's eyes widened as he looked at the system notification in front of him. He could not believe his eyes and ears!

Chapter 2: Entering the Game
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
SSS-grade talent?
Blood Devour?
"The SSS-grade talent didn't appear in the past. Could it be a talent that only a God of a higher level can contain?
"Hopefully there aren't too many prerequisites. Otherwise, I might be one step behind the others in the early to middle stages. This might not be a good sign."
In his previous life, there were people with talents that needed prerequisites before it got unlocked. It was very strange that some of them could not meet the prerequisites their entire lives. He did not know if there were any requirements for this SSS-grade talent.
Taking a deep breath, Li Yi suppressed the excitement in his heart and clicked on the talent attributes to view the Blood Devour ability.
Glancing at the talent attributes, Li Yi felt as though something was caught in his throat.
[Talent Grade: SSS]
[Name: Blood Devour]
[Effect: After killing a creature unit, you will immediately receive 1% of the opponent's basic HP and a small amount of HP recovery speed. This effect has no upper limit!]
[Note: The life unit uses a special skill. The temporarily increased HP and summoned creatures are not included.]
The description of this talent was very easy to understand. Every creature killed would increase his HP gained. The temporary HP gained by skills and summoned creatures were not counted.
No other skills would matter as much as this SSS-grade talent.
One had to know that HP was related to a player's life. Without the support of HP, even god-tier players would easily die.
The recovery speed of HP represented a continuous battle. In the early stages, one might not be able to see much of a difference, but after killing countless creatures in the middle and later stages, one would become an extremely terrifying existence.
When that time came, a player's HP would be even higher than a boss. How would these bosses endure such a situation?
With such a terrifying recovery speed, it was likely that the one could stand still and let their opponents beat them until their hands turned cramped. Even then, one would have quickly recovered back their full health.
Li Yi did not know if he could understand this unbearable sense of despair knowing he contained this skill.
"There's nothing else to say! One word, strong! This should be expected of an SSS-grade talent!"
No wonder those people in Li Yi's previous life who had an SS-grade talent were called existences that were on par with the Gods. It seemed that they had not exaggerated.
The heaven-defying effect of Blood Devour would definitely become an existence that would attract the attention of the world in the future.
Li Yi slowly calmed his excited mood and began to continue with his next operation.
[System Notification: Please select your initial class!]
Within the next moment, Li Yi's vision became slightly distorted, and the environment around him changed to a new place. There were two male characters that stood in front of him.
One of them carried an extremely wide-blade longsword on his back along with a shield.
The other held a long wooden staff with a bright gem embedded on the tip.
These were extremely familiar to Li Yi. They were the two basic classes in the game — Warrior Apprentice and Magic Apprentice.
When a basic class reaches a certain level, they could switch to other classes. These two basic classes had countless branches, and it could be said that each branch had its own unique characteristics.
If he was lucky in this game, he might even be able to find a hidden class. He would have to rely on himself now to slowly discover it.
Li Yi did not think much about it and directly chose the Warrior Apprentice class.
In his previous life, he was a level 200 Demigod Berserker. He was very familiar with the path of Warrior Apprentices, so there was no need for him to make any changes.
Moreover, based on his own talent, the reason for increasing his endless HP was that his first-class change when he reaches a certain level would definitely give priority to the Guardian Warrior. The Guardian Warrior was the class that most suited this SSS-grade talent, which was the ability to devour HP.
[System Notification: Class choice successful! Please name your character!]
"Carefree Dream." Li Yi replied as he had already thought of his own name and directly entered it.
[System Notification: Name successful. Do you wish to enter the face-molding segment?]
"No need, I'll skip it."
Li Yi did not wish to adjust his features. It was pretty good now. In his previous life, there were many people who looked unrecognizable. They all had appearances that were extremely awkward. One had to know that when the game and reality merged, their appearances could not be changed after it was confirmed!
[System Notification: You have created your character. The world of Divine Revelation has been opened. We wish you a happy game.]
[System Notification: You have successfully entered Divine Revelation. Currently, you are in Divine Revelation's sector No. 77777 Novice Village!]
As soon as the system finished its sentence, the environment in front of him started to blur again before it condensed into a clearer image. Li Yi had arrived at the Novice Village.
There were not many people around. As of now, many of them were engrossed in the face-molding process. After a period of time, more and more players would come online.
"This scene is so real, it's amazing! I didn't expect a company to create such a realistic world."
"I... was wrong! It hurts! This game is too real. I accidentally touched a person just now, but I was shocked by the system. I can confirm though that it felt like a real person!"
"Hurry up, I'm going to level up. I want to be the best in the entire server because I have my B-grade talent, this world will definitely belong to me."
"I can assure you that you won't be able to do it. I have an A-grade talent. Do you want to be my underling?"
"There are NPCs over there. Let's hurry over and see if there are any missions."
"..."
The realism of Divine Revelation indeed gave everyone an unprecedented experience. It was almost exactly the same as reality. If one did not look at the system interface, it would be difficult for ordinary people to tell if this was a reality or a game.
Looking at this scene, Li Yi smiled faintly. When he entered the game back then, he was exactly the same as these guys. He was excited and ecstatic!
He opened his attribute panel.
[ID: Carefree Dream]
[Class: Warrior Apprentice]
[Level: 1]
[Five Dimensions: Strength 6, Stamina 11, Agility 6, Spirit 8, Intelligence 6]
[HP: 110]
[MP: 32]
[HP Recovery Speed: 0.7/s]
[MP Recovery Speed: 0.8/s]
[Physical Attack: 23]
[Magic Attack: 12]
[Physical Defense: 11]
[Magic Defense: 8]
[Movement Speed: 5.3 m/s]
[Attack Speed: 1.06 times/s]
[Skills: None]
[Talent: Blood Devour SSS]
…
Other than talent, this panel was basically the same as any average player. Initially, most players' individual attributes would fluctuate between 4 to 8 points. His own attribute distribution was considered decent as he had no attribute lower than 4 points.
Looking at the players who were still talking to the NPCs, Li Yi directly walked out of the Novice Village.
Everyone was only level 1, so they could not receive missions from the NPCs. This game was famous for its lack of missions at the start of the game.
…
Outside the Novice Village was an open forest area. Some Black Rats were wandering aimlessly in the trees and grass. They were all level 1 Black Rats.
The Black Rats were smaller in size, and they were relatively fast. Many Magic Apprentices did not have any skills at the moment, so they could only rely on their staff to strike the Black Rats.
Usually, many Magic Apprentices would get directly beaten up by these strange attacks that came from the rats, and they would cry for their mothers and fathers. Only some Warrior Apprentices that had good reflexes were barely able to fight it.
After all, in the early stages, everyone only had a pitiful low-quality small broken sword, and its attack power was only 3 points. Everyone could not afford to buy Health Potions, this forced many Magic Apprentices to form teams in the early stages. Otherwise, after they killed a Black Rat, they would have to rest and wait for a long while for their health to recover.
Li Yi, on the other hand, was very familiar with the Black Rats. He walked in front of a Black Rat and raised his sword.
"-21."
Li Yi's attack immediately angered the Black Rat. It let out a 'ji ji' sound and directly pounced on him!
Li Yi had long expected this. With a quick dodge, the Black Rat pounced on to nothing. He took advantage of the movements when the Black Rat counterattacked, Li Yi casually followed up with a sword attack and accurately stabbed the weak throat of the Black Rat.
"-40! Weak Point Damage!"
The weak point damage gave double the damage, and it could stack with a critical strike. It was not bad for some normal monsters!
Li Yi continuously retreated, and his extremely clever positioning made the Black Rat lose its temper. From the beginning to the end, the Black Rat did not even have the opportunity to touch Li Yi!
The Black Rat's attack speed was slightly slower than him. As long as he grasped the necessary attack techniques, he could easily dodge the Black Rat without gaining any damage.
"Ji ji..."
The Black Rat, which only had 100 HP, was killed in four hits. This Black Rat did not drop any items. This was a normal situation, and he did not care about it at all.
After all, it would be abnormal if such a low-level monster had dropped good items!

Chapter 3: Blade-cutting Greatsword, the Secret of Augustus
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Li Yi was not concerned about the item drop rate, but his own HP. He immediately looked at the system notification.
[System Notification: You have killed a Level 1 Black Rat (normal). Obtained 2 experience points.]
[Talent Trigger: Obtained 1 HP, 0.01 HP Recovery/second]
"Hey! Not bad!" When Li Yi prepared his next attack towards the Black Rat, a few of them saw Li Yi's smooth operation and wanted to form a party with him and he had to tactfully reject their request.
The game had just started and time was of the essence, so those people could only give up. However, the smart ones had silently observed from a distance.
They started to mimic his movements, but their movements looked extremely awkward. A few of them almost died under the Black Rats' attacks.
The Black Rats' attacks were only slightly slower than the players'. It was not easy for the current players to grasp this rhythm.
As time passed, fewer and fewer Black Rats died at Li Yi's hands. This meant that the number of players who had entered the game had just started to increase.
There were even some Black Rats that had just respawned. Before they could see what the surrounding players looked like, they were immediately attacked by four or five attacks. It was simply too brutal!
This was when Li Yi decided to go deeper. That should be the territory of a level 3 Wild Wolf. As long as he was careful, he would not be surrounded by many Wild Wolves.
…
"Rustle..."
Li Yi stepped on the dry leaves on the floor, and it created a crackling sound. He immediately checked his system's notification.
He understood that he had entered the Wild Wolf's territory. He immediately put in 120% of his energy and carried his broken sword into the dense forest.
He did not walk far before he was alerted by a sound. Li Yi felt a trace of danger coming!
"Swoosh!"
A black shadow rushed out from behind a tree and attacked Li Yi!
Fortunately, Li Yi was already prepared. He immediately dodged and looked over his back. He saw a wild pale-gray wolf not far away. It had strong limbs and a lean body. At this moment, its green eyes stared at Li Yi. He took a look at the Wild Wolf's stats.
[Level 3 Wild Wolf (normal)]
[HP: 250]
[Physical Attack: 20]
[Physical Defense: 10]
Its speed was much faster than the Black Rats, and its attack power was very high. Fortunately, it was still within Li Yi's endurance range. It was no problem for him to take on this level 3 Wild Wolf alone.
Taking advantage of the gap between the Wild Wolf's attack, Li Yi moved his feet and moved diagonally to the left side of the Wild Wolf. He quickly struck the throat of the Wild Wolf with his sword!
"-12!"
The defense of the Wild Wolf was indeed very tough. The attack of 12 points could not deal much damage.
However, Li Yi did not care about this. He just slashed a few more times. Unless he was surrounded by many wild wolves, they would not be able to touch him.
Li Yi continued to close and widen the distance at different times. He blocked the opportunity for the Wild Wolf to attack. Under the continuous attacks, even if the Wild Wolf was two levels higher than him, they would still be worn out to death.
"-24! Weak Point Damage!"
After he hit the weak point, Li Yi immediately withdrew from the attack range!
Li Yi perfectly carried out the strategy of fighting monsters at a higher level and it went past by a breeze.
"Puchi..."
The wolf's blood splattered everywhere. After more than ten consecutive attacks, the level 3 wolf finally could not hold on anymore. It whimpered and dropped to the ground.
His experience bar immediately increased by a small portion. This amount of experience was not something the Black Rat could compare to. The Wild Wolf also dropped a few copper coins. Li Yi went forward to pick it up and put it into his bag.
Divine Revelation was just like that. The drop rate was pitifully low. The Wild Wolf was able to drop a few copper coins only because it was killed by a person of a lower level, this caused the drop rate to slightly increase. Otherwise, there would not be a single copper coin, just like the Black Rats.
Li Yi continued to go deeper into the forest as he looked for lone Wild Wolves to kill.
…
After spending nearly an hour killing a large number of Wild Wolves, his level finally rose to level 2.
At this moment, Li Yi had obtained 5 free attribute points, as well as a fixed increase of 1 point for each attribute. This did not take into account the special talent of the class.
1 Strength Point = 3 physical attack points.
1 Stamina Point = 10 HP, 1 physical defense point, and gain a small amount of HP recovery speed.
1 Agility Point = 1 attack point, 1% movement speed, 1% attack speed.
1 Spirit Point = 4 MP, 1 magic defense point, and a small amount of MP recovery speed.
1 Intelligence Point = 2 magic attack points
Without further calculations, Li Yi directly added all of his free attributes points to his Strength. Then, he looked at his interface. His physical attack had reached a level of 41.
However, the increase in his HP had become a little exaggerated.
Initially, it was 110 points. Currently, when he leveled up, all his attributes had increased by 1 point, which meant that he had gained 10 more HP. However, now, he directly relied on his talent to reach 470 points!
It could be said that in this short period of time, he had gained an additional 40 points of stamina compared to other players. This was as expected of an SSS-grade talent. It was indeed a terrifying bonus.
Li Yi continued to fight. There were still very few people here. At the very least, he could level up comfortably and increase to a large amount of HP.
When most of the players had leveled up, this place would likely be overcrowded. It would be extremely difficult to snatch a monster.
[System Notification: You have killed a level 3 Wild Wolf (normal). Obtained 10 experience points.]
[Talent Trigger: Obtained 2.5 HP, 0.025 HP Recovery/second.]
…
However, as Li Yi continued searching for wild wolves, he suddenly saw an even larger Wild Wolf who sat under a tree in the distance. At this moment, it seemed to be eating the corpse of a small animal.
"An elite Wild Wolf?"
[Level 3 Wild Wolf (elite)]
[HP: 500]
[Physical Attack: 43]
[Physical Defense: 20]
Li Yi was slightly stunned. Then, he walked towards the Wild Wolf. If he was at a Level 1, he would definitely not look for anything too hardcore. He reckoned that he would not be able to break through its defense.
When he walked towards the elite Wild Wolf, the elite Wild Wolf also sensed that danger had approached. It immediately turned around and let out a deep roar, as if it wanted to defend its sovereignty,
"Come! Let me see how powerful you are." Li Yi directly rushed towards the Wild Wolf.
The elite Wild Wolf let out a growl and also directly rushed towards Li Yi.
Monsters at this level had no intelligence at all. They only knew how to attack with brute force. It was not like in the future, when the level was higher, they would encounter intelligent monsters. They could even predict your actions and attack.
Observing the elite Wild Wolf that charged at him, Li Yi slightly shifted his steps, and the wolf barely brushed past his body.
At this moment, Li Yi used a tricky angle to suddenly attack the soft flesh of the elite Wild Wolf's jaw. He was fierce and decisive.
"Chi!"
"-40! Weak Point Damage!
Li Yi's attack power was 41. The double damage that hit the weakness was only 40 points. This elite Wild Wolf's defense was indeed very high and very challenging. Moreover, it still had 500 HP more to go. It would indeed take some time to defeat it.
After his attack succeeded, Li Yi was not greedy. He quickly retreated a few steps and flashed behind the trees.
Looking at the elite Wild Wolf that chased after him, the measly weapon in his hand was like a poisonous snake as it once again accurately stabbed towards the same spot.
"-38! Weak Point Damage!"
Li Yi immediately pushed and pulled this elite Wild Wolf back and forth in the forest. The elite Wild Wolf's HP also began to slowly drain out. During this period of time, this Wild Wolf could not even touch Li Yi at all.
"Awooo..."
After the wolf let out a miserable howl, it finally collapsed to the ground.
[System Notification: You have killed a Level 3 Wild Wolf (elite). Obtained 150 experience points.]
[Talent Trigger: Obtained 5 HP, 0.05 HP Recovery/second.]
Li Yi's experience bar had also increased by a large margin, as expected of an elite monster!
When he looked at the items dropped by the elite Wild Wolf on the ground, he saw a shiny greatsword and a large number of copper coins that was beside the elite Wild Wolf's corpse.
This loot made Li Yi's eyes light up, and he immediately went forward to pick it up.
As he held on to the greatsword in his hand, he found that the greatsword was at least two meters long. The body of the greatsword was snow-white, and there was a Wild Wolf totem engraved on the hilt. Looking at the attributes of the greatsword, it was indeed a piece of rare equipment in the early stages.
[Equipment: Blade-cutting Greatsword]
[Quality: Excellent]
[Attack: 30]
[Excellent Attribute: Strength 5]
[Equipment Requirements: Level 1]
…
When all the physical attacks were added together, this weapon would have an attack of 45. It was definitely greater as compared to his old weapon. This was as expected of an excellent-grade weapon.
[Divine Relevation's Grade Classification: Inferior, ordinary, excellent, flawless, perfect, rare, and so on. As for higher-grade equipment, every single one of them would be a well sought after object!]
The weapon in his hand was of the lowest quality. This time, the greatsword that dropped directly surpassed the ordinary grade and went to the excellent grade. It could be said that this greatsword was one of the few rare pieces of equipment in the entire server.
This luck was absolutely unrivaled!

Chapter 4: The Scourge of Bandits, Proud Guild
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
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]
[HP: 1379]
[MP: 40]
[HP Recovery Rate: 13.1/s]
[MP Recovery Rate: 0.3/s]
[Physical Attack: 100]
[Magic Attack: 16]
[Physical Defense: 20]
[Magic Defense: 13]
[Movement Speed: 5.8 m/s]
[Attack Speed: 1.09 m/s]
[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!

Chapter 6: Sisters' Visit, A Black-iron Boss
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
"-260! Weak Point Damage!"
Li Yi immediately used Heavy Strike on a Bandit with 350 HP. The skill instantly took out more than half of the bandit's HP. This skill was definitely a great help to the player!
Heavy Strike was a super-powerful attack that directly knocked the Bandit to the ground. However, the Bandit immediately wanted to climb up and counterattack. Li Yi took this opportunity and directly went forward to finish the job.
"-176! Weak Point Damage!"
After continuously attacking his vital points, he could now withstand the bandit's counterattack and kill the Bandit.
"-29!"
After being slashed by the Bandits, he only lost a little HP. However, it only took a few seconds for his HP to recover very quickly.
Glancing at the dozen or so Bandits that had just respawned in the distance, Li Yi decided to finish farming all of them before returning. Who knows, they might even drop another skill book. With that, he took large strides in that direction.
…
At the same time, not far away from the Bandit's base, two female players were carefully walking towards this place. They avoided the Wild Wolves' territory as they searched for this place.
"Sis, this place is so sinister. Has Carefree Dream really come here? Why don't we return to the village and wait for him?" The younger sister nervously looked around and spoke with some fear.
"That's right. That merchant definitely wouldn't dare to lie to me. Don't worry about that! I want to find him now and show some sincerity. Otherwise, how could he be manipulated by me?" The older sister said with a very calm expression.
Right as the two of them were about to continue moving forward, they suddenly heard a slight movement on the left. They turned around and saw a person walking towards them.
"Sis, there's Carefree Dream!" Her sister immediately pulled her towards that direction happily.
At this moment, Li Yi looked at the two girls who walked towards him. Although the newbie players currently wore the same clothes, from their appearances, it could be seen that the tall girl was an extraordinarily strong woman in reality.
The other one was very lively and cute. Both of them were rare beauties. Each had their own strengths, and it was impossible to tell who was superior.
Li Yi looked at the two women's faces and suddenly remembered. These two seemed to be the very famous socializing sisters in his previous life. They were good at forming groups everywhere, and in the end, they even made several big shots turn against each other.
It was better not to get too close to these kinds of girls. He immediately turned around and walked to the side.
This was not the Wild Wolf's territory. These two sisters would not be able to keep up.
Li Yi changed his direction and walked towards the area where the Wild Wolves were running rampant, disrupting their plans. Her sister quickly walked over and shouted.
"Carefree Dream... let's talk..."
Li Yi pretended not to hear her. 'If you can't afford to offend me, then I can hide. Who knows if you guys will trick me?' He quickly disappeared into the forest as he thought to himself.
"How rude! This Carefree Dream is too infuriating. Ordinary people would have high hopes when talking to us two sisters, but this person actually avoided us!!!" One of the sisters said angrily from the side.
"Let's go! We'll talk about it later!" The sister immediately turned around and returned the way she came. Her expression did not change at all. The other party did not have the slightest bit of anger towards the matter just now.
…
Li Yi swept his gaze behind him. The two courtesans did not chase after him. They just went around and walked towards the village. On the way, there were Wild Wolves who wanted to provoke them, so the sisters took them away with a few slashes from their swords.
Shortly after, Li Yi arrived at the village entrance. Due to the merciless killing of the players just now, no one dared to casually come up and strike up a conversation. He managed to enter the village without any obstruction.
At this moment, the Village Chief was still standing outside the door. His expression was a little sad, and he no longer smiled at all the players like before.
Li Yi walked up to the Village Chief and said, "Village Chief, I have completed your task and returned."
The Village Chief raised his head at this moment and shouted in an extremely excited tone, "Adventurer, I knew I didn't misjudge you. You really did it!!! My little Harper can finally rest in peace!!!"
The Village Chief could not help but nod his head in satisfaction. A smile returned to his face as he asked, "Adventurer, since you were able to complete my mission, it means that you are definitely a powerful adventurer. I wonder if you are able to kill the third-in-charge, Wilke, and take back something very important for me?"
Li Yi said without hesitation, "I will definitely complete it!"
[System Notification: Mission updated!]
[Mission Content: Go to the outskirts of the village to kill the third-in-charge, Wilke, of the Bandits and bring back his treasures!]
[Mission Rewards: Unknown!]
The Village Chief spoke with great satisfaction, "I really didn't misjudge you. Powerful adventurer, I look forward to your safe return."
Li Yi bade farewell to the Village Chief and headed to the Potion Merchant. Now that he had a skill, he had to buy some Mana Potions. Otherwise, he definitely would not have enough MP to use them.
30 copper coins for one basic Mana Potion that would regain 30 MP, takes 10 seconds.
Li Yi had only obtained 32 silver coins after fighting for so long. This time, he directly bought 80 bottles of Mana Potions and spent most of the silver coins.
With so many Mana Potions, his leveling speed would definitely increase very quickly. Then, the silver coins would also be earned relatively faster. If there were sacrifices, there should be gains!
After purchasing the potions, Li Yi walked out of the village.
…
Li Yi left Novice Village and went straight to the place where the Bandits gathered.
The Bandits in the gathering place had higher attributes than the Bandits outside. They had slightly different outfits from the Bandits outside as they wore animal leather clothes.
[Level 4 Brutal Bandit]
[HP: 450]
[Physical Attack: 59]
[Physical Defense: 20]
The difficulty of the Bandits did not increase by too much. It was still within the range of control.
Li Yi scanned around the gathering place. There was a wooden house in the distance, so there was a possibility of something inside of it.
The Bandits on the Northside of the house were a little less weaker. It was suitable for a person to slowly sneak up on the situation.
Li Yi then quietly approached a Bandit and instantly launched a sneak attack.
"Heavy Strike!"
The skill was instantly used. The greatsword carried a huge amount of strength and directly slashed at the neck of the bandit.
"-224! Weak Point Damage!"
Heavy Strike directly hit the weak spot. The damage was very considerable! This attack power was very sharp even against a level 4 bandit.
Li Yi's attack succeeded, and the Bandit reacted very quickly.
"Outsider! You're seeking death!"
The bandit's strength was much stronger than that of the outside world, and at this moment, he was unable to push him back. The Bandit felt pain from being hit, and roared as he launched a counterattack!
"Swish!"
"-47!"
Li Yi was injured. When the Bandit continued to attack, his feet suddenly moved to the other side, thus it caused the bandit's attack to miss.
Li Yi hit the Bandit's weak spot again, and that triggered a weak point damage.
"-161! Weak Point Damage!"
"-81!"
From the beginning to the end, he was only attacked once by the bandit. Li Yi attacked the Bandit three times.
[Talent Trigger: Obtained 4.5 HP, 0.045 HP Recovery/second]
Li Yi picked up the copper coins on the ground and walked towards another lone bandit. He was ready to meet the third-in-charge after he was done cleaning up.
Li Yi gradually went deeper into the gathering place. Along the way, he cleared all the Bandits. He came to the front of the house and slowly pushed the door open and entered the small house.
Li Yi did not find any Bandits inside. He only saw a wooden box in the middle of the house.
It seemed that he had found the right place!

Chapter 7: Black-iron Treasure Chest, Godly Skill: Raging Blood Roar
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Li Yi looked at the familiar treasure chest in front of him. This should be a rare boss treasure chest. Under normal circumstances, it would appear in a boss-only area. As long as the player touched this treasure chest, the boss would immediately appear and lead the surrounding underlings to chase after the players.
The first thing that players needed to do after encountering a treasure chest was to clear all the monsters around the boss. Otherwise, if you opened the treasure chest directly, you would be surrounded by countless monsters and die. There was no possibility of escaping.
Li Yi walked to a relatively safe distance and checked the level of the boss's treasure chest.
[Rare Boss Treasure Box (Iron Level): The third-in-charge of Robber Augustus Cave, Wilke's most precious treasure. Whoever that dares to touch the contents, Wilke shall chase you to death!]
[Reward: Unknown!]
The boss's treasure chests that appeared in his previous life were mostly divided into iron, brass, silver, gold, platinum, diamond, and so on.
Although they were only the lowest-level iron treasure chests, as someone who had opened one before, he knew that even an iron treasure chest could drop a piece of equipment of the same tier as his greatsword.
Some people were extremely lucky. They had even obtained higher-quality, flawless equipment from an iron treasure chest. Their luck was truly heaven-defying.
If they encountered a boss and other iron treasure chests in the early stages of a game like this, it would definitely cause the two guilds to fall out with each other. This was because this boss's treasure chest had a very important prerequisite.
That was, the boss would only have a treasure chest if it had not respawned. This means that once the boss gets killed by a player and respawns, the second player would not receive a treasure chest.
One could imagine how precious a treasure chest was. Even if it was an iron treasure chest, there would still be a number of treasure chests in the entire Divine Revelation world.
They were all unique. There would never be a second treasure chest that was exactly the same.
Li Yi then left the range of the treasure chest and decided that it was best to first clear out the surrounding Bandits. Otherwise, when the boss cried out, he would not be able to hold on no matter how much HP he had.
…
He left the wooden house.
Li Yi had just arrived behind the Bandit when the Bandit turned around and glared at the intruder. He directly rushed over, indicating that he was close to the boss. The Bandits here were very alert.
They could no longer rely on surprise attacks. They did not care too much about this situation. At most, it would just take a little time.
This kind of Bandit did not have any skills. The way he attacked was to use brute force in battle. He did not pay much attention to it.
With a swift move of his feet, he moved in a gorgeous arc. He directly dodged the bandit's Fury Attack. Moreover, this bandit's attack was not fast.
Li Yi only needed to attack around the Bandit. He could at least dodge 80% of the Bandit's attacks.
Were the Bandit to turn around and attack, it would take a certain amount of time.
Low-level creatures did not have very strong reactions, or else it would be very difficult for the novice players to walk out of the Novice Village!
Li Yi took advantage of the moment when the Bandit turned around and struck the back of the Bandit's neck with a precise Heavy Strike.
"-249! Weak Point Damage!"
Then, he moved his feet towards the Bandit's shoulder, and his greatsword directly slashed over.
"-85."
"Die!!"
The Bandit let out an angry roar and fiercely slashed over. This Bandit's attack was really not bad, it directly took away 50 of his HP.
Taking advantage of the moment when the Bandit wanted to continue attacking, Li Yi had already circled to the left side of the bandit.
"-81!"
"-76!"
After two normal attacks, the battle was over.
"Clank!"
A piece of equipment appeared beside the fallen Bandit. He picked it up and checked its attributes.
[Equipment: Leather Hat]
[Rarity: Normal]
[Physical Defense: 5]
[Equipment Requirements: Level 1]
For a piece of normal-grade equipment, this attribute was actually considered to be a piece of good defensive equipment.
…
After more than an hour, Li Yi had cleared out the Bandits around the wooden house. Then, he headed towards the final place.
There was no need to think about where the cave was, it was the address of the boss. He had to be careful when he entered to kill the minions. Otherwise, it would not be good if he triggered the boss.
When he walked into the dark cave, the Bandits inside had the same attributes as the ones outside.
Li Yi entered the bandit's attack range and attracted the Bandit's attack without retaliating. He walked out first and then attacked again.
"Pa-da!"
The Bandit's HP quickly ran out and he fell to the ground. However, when the Bandit fell to the ground, there was a different sound. Something must have dropped. Li Yi immediately went forward to look for it and saw a scimitar, so he picked it up.
[Equipment: Scimitar]
[Quality: Normal]
[Physical Attack: 20]
[Equipment Requirements: Level 1]
"Not bad."
Li Yi directly put it into his backpack. Although he did not need this weapon, it was worth a lot of money in the early stages. In the early stages of Divine Revelation, a weapon was the most valuable equipment. Nothing else could compare to it. A good weapon meant that the leveling speed was faster. Even if it was a piece of normal quality equipment, it would not affect its value.
The drop rate of this game was obvious. It was extremely difficult to obtain a good weapon.
At this moment, Li Yi had already eliminated all the Bandits in the cave by finishing them one by one. At this moment, he finally saw the face of the boss.
The bearded man was very strong. He was currently sleeping soundly on his bed. However, as long as someone approached him, he would wake up immediately.
After he entered the wooden house, Li Yi went forward to open the treasure chest. The treasure chest immediately trembled and a golden light filled the entire wooden house, then several items dropped from it.
Two pieces of equipment and a book appeared out from the golden light.
"What a big drop!!"
Li Yi immediately went forward to pick it up, and began to check the loot.
[Item: Raging Blood Roar (skill book)]
[Usage Requirement: Warrior Apprentice]
[Effect: Consumes 10% of your maximum HP, causing 100% true damage to all living creatures within a 55 range, stunning them for 1 second! Cooldown time is 10 seconds!]
"This? This is practically tailor-made for me!!!"
According to his talent, this damage value would increase infinitely, and he would also have the control of stuns. Moreover, this was an area-of-effect skill. To him, this was a godly skill.
Li Yi immediately learned this skill, and then looked at the remaining two pieces of equipment.
[Equipment: Leopard-print Helmet]
[Rarity: Excellent]
[Defense: 9]
[Excellent Attribute: Strength 5, Spirit 6]
[Equipment Condition: 5]
[Equipment: Soft Hedgehog Armor]
[Rarity: Excellent]
[Defense: 14]
[Excellent Attribute: Stamina 6]
[Equipment Condition: Level 5 (simple)]
"Huh! Simple?"
Of course, Li Yi knew the simple attributes. This was a condition that could reduce a piece of equipment by 5 levels. It was obvious that this piece of equipment should be equipped right now.
After that, he put on the soft hedgehog armor. Before he could take a look at his appearance, a loud roar came from outside the house.
"Despicable thief! Come out and face your death! How dare you steal from me!"
At this moment, Li Yi did not panic. He walked out of the wooden house directly and saw the big man with full cheeks that was currently running towards him from afar.
He first checked the boss's attributes.
[Level 5, third-in-charge of Bandits, Wilke (black-iron)]
[Boss: Level 5, third-in-charge of Bandits, Wilke]
[Quality: Black-iron]
[HP: 4,000]

Chapter 8: Boss 'Berserk', First Clearing Point
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
If it was a level 5 black-iron boss, most players would not have any good equipment. Most of their defense and attack would not have been high enough making it hard to defeat the boss.
Li Yi was already wearing the level 5 (simple) soft hedgehog armor. His defense had already reached 31. What was even more terrifying was his HP and recovery speed. At this moment, his HP had already reached 3,834 and he was recovering 30 HP every second!
It would be hilarious if he still could not defeat a level 5 black-iron boss swiftly.
"-171."
The moment Li Yi stepped out of the door, the boss's blade had already landed on his body. Even with the soft hedgehog armor, the boss could still cause such damage. The damage of this boss was still very high.
The other players would only be able to take one hit before they would die. If they wanted to use a group of players to kill this boss, there was no need to even think about it if there were less than 100 players combined.
Li Yi moved and made a beautiful zigzag movement around the boss. He instantly dodged the boss's continuous attacks and slashed at the back of the boss's neck.
"Heavy Strike!"
"-61! Weak Point Damage!"
The boss was in pain and wanted to turn around and attack. Li Yi took this opportunity to continuously attack the boss from the shoulder.
"-21."
"-25."
The boss's defense was indeed very high. It had a defense that was several times higher than that of a normal bandit. The Heavy Strike combined with the weak point damage only dealt so little. As for the normal attack, it was even more pitiful.
"You're courting death!"
The boss was enraged after being hit by the Heavy Strike. It turned around and slashed with its sword in an awe-inspiring manner.
However, the attack still missed. Li Yi's zigzag movement seemed to be very easy to deal with a boss that did not have the ability to attack in a large area in the early stages.
Li Yi took advantage of the moment when he turned around and saw the opportunity. His greatsword moved like a poisonous snake and locked onto the position of the boss's eyes.
"Puchi!"
"-201! Defense Broken, Weak Point Damage!"
The boss's blood splattered out. At this moment, he had received a great deal of damage. This game was very close to reality in terms of details. If his eyes were attacked, the boss's vision would also be damaged.
At this moment, Li Yi took a sliding step and immediately moved to the right side. He struck the back of the boss's neck with Heavy Strike.
"-68! Weak Point Damage!"
The boss's HP and attack power were high, and its movements were not considered fast either. After a series of attacks, it was almost time to announce the death of this black-iron boss. With his current speed, positioning skills, and the support of his HP, it was relatively easy to deal with him.
…
Very soon, the boss HP had already fallen to 10%.
Li Yi immediately took a few steps back and avoided the boss's attack range. Logically speaking, when the boss HP reached 10%, there should be a trump card that he would use!
As expected.
"Ah!!"
The boss gave up on chasing and stood on the spot instead, and he let out an angry roar. The body of the boss emitted a faint blood-red aura, it wrapped around the entire body of the boss.
"Berserk?"
Li Yi was quite familiar with this move. This was a move that many bosses would use in the early stages. The effect was to double one's own attack power, movement speed, attack speed, and skill attack power within a short period of time.
However, the boss's defense would also be greatly reduced. Its duration was around three minutes. Once the skill ended, it would enter a weakened state and be at the mercy of the players.
Under normal circumstances, players would try their best to avoid the boss until the skill duration ended. Then, they would launch an attack. Otherwise, they might be instantly killed by the boss.
Li Yi was unable to delay the boss because there was only one person fighting now. There was no one else to support and delay the boss's movements. At this moment, the boss's eyes were bloodshot. It rushed over with large strides. Its speed was extremely fast. Li Yi's current movement speed was no longer able to suppress the boss. He was slashed on the left shoulder.
"-375."
Li Yi's HP was directly reduced by 10% by this attack. However, it was time for him to use a new skill. Li Yi opened his mouth and let out an angry roar.
"Raging Blood Roar!"
Li Yi's HP was suddenly reduced by 10%. Following that, a large amount of blood rushed around in his body and he charged towards the boss, which caused a large amount of damage to the boss. Moreover, the boss got stunned for a second.
"-383."
Li Yi took advantage of the situation when the boss was stunned and swung his greatsword towards the boss.
"Heavy Strike!"
"-261! Weak Point Damage!"
"-94! Weak Point Damage!"
The defense of this boss was greatly reduced when it used Berserk. Its damage was definitely much higher than before.
"-97! Weak Point Damage!"
"-387."
When the boss activated Berserk, it only had time to launch one counterattack and then get defeated. Its HP bar had completely lost all signs of life. It dropped over a dozen silver coins and a white stone!
[Item: Strange Stone (mission item)]
[Effect: Unknown!]
"This should be the mission item. Let's go back and show it to the Village Chief!"
Just as he was about to leave the place, the system immediately sent out a few notifications.
[System Notification: Congratulations on completing the mission and being the first to kill the black-iron boss, Wilke. The reward for the first kill is 10,000 EXP, 1 gold coin, and 1 piece of quality flawless equipment.]
[System Notification: You are the brave one! You are the first player in the village to kill a black-iron boss. There will be a server announcement soon. Do you wish to hide your name?]
After being rewarded 10,000 experience points, Li Yi immediately leveled up to level 4 with 70% experience points. As expected of being the first to clear this. This was comparable to the result of seven to eight hours of hard work!
"Flawless grade?"
Li Yi was stunned. When he heard whether or not to hide his name, he immediately clicked yes. It was not because he was afraid of anyone, but because he did not want to be harassed by the other players.
There was no benefit in revealing his name to the public.
…
At the same time, after Li Yi made his choice, the sound of a system announcement resounded throughout Novice Village no. 77777. For a moment, all the players were stunned.
[Server Announcement: This is a special announcement!!! A player has successfully killed the level 5 black-iron boss, Wilke. The first kill has been completed.]
What??
A level 5 black-iron boss had been killed by a player?
Although the player had hidden their name, there was only one server announcement, which meant that this black-iron boss had been killed by a single player.
At this moment, the entire Novice Village was in an uproar.
"How is this possible? I've been fighting for so long, and I haven't even reached level 2 yet, and this person has already killed a level 5 black-iron boss? And he fought it alone?"
"Are you serious? I just leveled up to level 2 and wanted to challenge the Wild Wolves, but now I'm back to Level 1!!!"
"It seems like Divine Revelation has only been open for more than half a day, and there's already someone who can fight a black-iron boss alone? There must be something behind this!!"
"Our Scorching Sun Guild welcomes this guy to our guild. Annual salary interview, I guarantee you'll be satisfied!!!"
The ordinary players discussed animatedly. Almost everyone did not believe that this man had done it on his own. All of them went to the game's official website to report it.. The game's official website had released the battle video.

Chapter 9: Double-edged Steel Sword, Level 5 Skill
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
At this moment, Li Yi did not know that he had caused such a huge reaction. Instead, he looked at his backpack. A silver-white greatsword was sitting comfortably in the first slot of his backpack.
He opened the attribute panel.
[Equipment: Double-edged Steel Sword]
[Quality: Flawless]
[Attack: 71]
[Flawless Attribute: strength 10, critical hit rate 5%]
[Equipment Condition: Level 5]
Including strength, this weapon had a 101 physical attack and a 5% critical hit. It was worthy of being a piece of flawless equipment.
Looking at the Steel Sword in his hand, his EXP bar had reached 70% of level 4. Soon, he would reach level 5 and would be able to equip this flawless equipment.
The greatsword had reached the point of breaking. However, he did not need this sword. It was still a rare weapon in the current market. It would definitely be very valuable if he sold it.
Currently, many players were still fighting monsters with weapons given by the system. If he sold this weapon, many people would definitely clamor to snatch this item!
Li Yi walked out of the gathering place and prepared to find a place to increase to level 5. When the time came, he would bring this sword with him and go back to the village to learn level 5 skills. At that time, there would definitely be a great improvement.
When he walked out of the gathering place, the surrounding Bandits had already been cleared. It was still too early for them to respawn.
Li Yi walked deeper into the forest.
…
After walking for nearly ten minutes, Li Yi discovered a new kind of creature.
"Squeak squeak!!!"
A strange, fiery-red bat that was the size of a puppy, hanging upside down on a tree, asleep. Its mouth opened and closed, letting out a series of unpleasant cries.
[Level 4, Fiery-red Bat (normal)]
[HP: 350]
[Physical Attack: 90]
[Physical Defense: 11]
[Other attributes: Attacks with poison]
…
Yet another creature with high attack and low defense. It was very suitable for leveling up.
Li Yi raised his greatsword and rushed forward. He aimed at the head of the sleeping bat and slashed at it!
"Heavy Strike!"
"-300! Weak Point Damage!"
This was the advantage of a weapon with high damage and full strength. Skills combined with weak point damage almost killed the fiery bat!
The Fiery-red Bat burned with rage when it was attacked in its sleep. It immediately pounced down. Before the Fiery-red Bat made its move, Li Yi quickly swung his sword a second time and stabbed the chest of the Fiery-red Bat.
"-103."
The Fiery-red Bat's wings were sharp. It directly slashed him which caused a tingling sensation to immediately spread from his arm.
"-20! Poison Attack"
[System Notification: You have been attacked by the Fiery-red Bat's poison attack. You will lose 20 HP per second. This will last for 5 seconds.]
Li Yi did not pay much attention to the Fiery-red Bat's poison attack. This poison attack was not as high as his HP regeneration.
His sword accurately stabbed into the fiery bat.
"-103."
The Fiery-red Bat's last bit of HP was also destroyed. After letting out a series of wails, it fell to the ground and dropped a few copper coins.
The experience points gained were not bad. It seemed that he would be able to level up after killing another 100 or so bats. There were still a lot of bats here. Moreover, it was daytime now. They were all hanging on the tree and sleeping. It would be fine to kill them one by one!
After an hour or so of him challenging the Fiery-red Bats, his body emitted a burst of golden light. He had finally leveled up to level 5!
"Not bad, it's time to go back and learn some skills."
There were not many skills that could be learned at level 5. There were only two types of skills.
[Level 1 Basic Mastery (passive skill): Increases 1% of one's final physical attack, hit rate, and skill damage. The highest level is Level 10!]
[Level 1 Combo (active skill): Consecutively strikes out two attacks, dealing 70% and 90% of physical attack respectively. Cool down for 8 seconds, consume 10 MP. The highest level is Level 10!]
These two basic skills were pretty good. When they reached max level, they could increase the final physical attack by 10%. This was not a small amount.
Combo was also one of the more commonly used skills!
…
Back in Novice Village, Li Yi arrived in front of the Warrior Apprentice Mentor, Sorot.
Li Yi initiated the conversation, "Mentor Sorot, I'm already level 5. I wish to learn some skills now."
Sorot looked over and glanced at him. He said, "Okay! Adventurer, it looks like you have great potential! You are now qualified to learn additional skills. You can now learn up to two more skills."
The option to learn the skills appeared in front of Li Yi. The effects of the skills were exactly the same as in his memory. He needed 10 silver coins and to be at level 5 to learn them.
Li Yi only had 1 gold coin and 20 silver coins in his bag. If it was not for the first boss that gave him 1 gold coin, he would not even have the money to buy Mana Potions after learning the skill.
After Li Yi finished learning the skill, he said to Sorot, "Alright, I've finished learning it!"
"Great! Go and venture forth, powerful adventurer!! You're my pride..."
Li Yi was about to leave when he saw that his mentor seemed to have noticed something. He immediately walked up and grabbed his palm to observe it carefully.
After a long while, his mentor seemed to have discovered something extremely shocking.
"You... Your blood devour has actually become so strong. Could it be that you have that legendary talent?
"The legendary talent has actually appeared on the continent at this moment. Looks like our continent will no longer be ordinary in the future!!!"
At this moment, Sorot slowly closed his eyes, as if he was recalling some things from the past.
When Li Yi saw this situation, he had some doubts in his heart. However, he definitely would not leave at this time, because this seemed like an intriguing matter.
Although he did not receive any news in his previous life that the Novice Village's Warrior Apprentices mentor had issued a mission, according to his many years of experience, this was definitely an extremely special situation.
It should be because his SSS-grade talent had played a role.
After a long time, Sorot finally came back to his senses and shook his head as he said, "Haih! I was relieving my past, to actually be immersed in the past for such a long time and not be able to come out might look embarrassing."
Li Yi saw that Sorot had regained his senses and immediately went forward to ask, "Mentor, what is it that has caused you to be so engrossed in it? Is it possible for me to help you?"
When Sorot heard the request, he immediately replied in a very serious tone, "Carefree Dream, this mission might be a little dangerous, but I still want to hand it over to you. May I ask if you are willing to accept my test?"
[System Notification: Warrior Apprentice Mentor — Sorot has issued a legacy trial mission to you. Should you choose to accept it?]
When Li Yi heard the system notification, he became extremely shocked. Others might not know about the legacy trial, but he knew it very well.
The legacy trial was a mission to awaken a special power. That was a special mission that could only be activated after the third transition in the game. Now that he was only level 5 and had already received the legacy trial in the Novice Village, it would be a lie if he was not shocked.
Li Yi immediately replied, "I accept.. Mentor Sorot, you can rest assured and leave your mission to me. I will definitely work hard to complete it!"

Chapter 10: Inheritance Trial, Invited by the Guild
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Hearing this, Sorot immediately said loudly, "That's great. I hope you can complete the mission safely." After saying this, his mentor returned to where he sat and his eyes turned glossy as he relieved his past once again.
Li Yi immediately checked the mission that he had accepted.
[Mission Name: The Trial to awaken the War God's strength (first round)]
[Mission Content: Your powerful talent is shocking. Sorot is willing to give you his clues regarding the awakening of the War God's strength. The prerequisite is that you must prove your powerful strength.]
[Mission Conditions: Kill a gray-silver boss.]
[Mission Duration: Before level 10.]
[Mission Reward: Clues regarding the awakening power of the God of War.]
[Remarks: This mission can only form a two-man team.]
[Awaken the power of the God of War?]
This mission had never appeared before in his previous life. Just the first round of the mission required him to kill a gray-silver boss. Moreover, he had to kill it before reaching level 10. The difficulty was high.
In the Novice Village, there was only one gray-silver boss nearby, and that was the final boss of Robber Augustus Cave, the leader, Wiles!!
Fortunately, he was only level 5 at the moment, and there was still a long way to go before he reached level 10. He still had a lot of time to prepare.
At this moment, Li Yi remembered the equipment he had just obtained, the leopard helmet, and his first flawless equipment, the double-edged steel sword!
After Li Yi put them all on, his attributes immediately soared.
[ID: Carefree Dream]
[Occupation: Warrior Apprentice]
[Level: 5]
[5D: Strength 39, Stamina 19, Agility 11, Spirit 18, Intelligence 10]

[Passive: Basic mastery Level 1]
[Equipment: Double-edged Steel Sword (flawless), leopard-patterned helmet (fine), soft hedgehog armor (fine), linen undergarment (normal), cloth shoes (normal)]
[Talent: Blood Devour SSS]
Li Yi was currently wearing a helmet with leopard-patterned patterns on it. He was wearing a soft hedgehog armor that was covered with barbed hooks. On his back was a steel sword that had a faint glow. He looked just like an ancient general. When he walked on the road, many people would turn their heads towards him.
"That's!!! Is that Carefree Dream? The sword on his back seems to have changed again. What a pity that I'm only using a beginner's sword!!!"
"Didn't you see how the Warrior Apprentice Mentor looked just now? That's the sign that you can learn skills at level 5. The rumors are true, Carefree Dream really is invisible."
"Sigh, I feel that he must have completed the first kill of that iron boss. Otherwise, it would be hard to imagine that there are other awesome players in our Novice Village!"
"I don't think it's him. Isn't the big boss of the Scorching Sun Guild also in our Novice Village? It's possible that he was the one who killed the boss."
"That's impossible. You have to know that the black-iron boss was defeated by a single player. There are quite a few players in the Scorching Sun Guild!"
"I think it's..."
"..."
The onlookers that discussed among themselves had envious looks on their faces. They debated on who killed the iron boss. However, no one went forward to strike up a conversation with him. After all, the one-hit-one-kid was not a joke.
Divine Revelation was a game that was difficult to level up, to begin with. If one died, they would lose their level. Several hours of hard work would be wasted. No one could stand to start a fight in the early stages.
Li Yi had only taken a few steps when he arrived at the front of Novice Village. Right as he was about to sell his equipment, he saw a few players who walked over from afar. Their equipment was obviously better than the other players. There were several pieces of different clothes on their bodies.
Li Yi could feel that these people were coming for him. Could it be that they were from Proud Guild?
Li Yi hated trouble the most. If the members of Proud Guild still came to provoke him, then he would kill them all at once until they become afraid enough to never approach him. Otherwise, he would definitely be plagued with endless trouble.
Soon, a few players had arrived in front of him. The one leading them was a level 3 Warrior Apprentice. His ID was Scorching Sun, and the others also had names beginning with Scorching Sun.
The few players behind him were all level 2 players. This party was obviously a high-quality party.
Li Yi looked at the beginning of the name and immediately thought of the Scorching Sun Guild in his previous life. This guild and the upper guilds were very good at managing people. The people under them had good reputations.
In Divine Revelation, it was a good guild that was hard to come by. However, the requirements to join the guild were strict, and they had to follow many rules. It was a guild that had fewer people.
Scorching Sun extended his hand to Li Yi and said with a smile, "I am Sun Conqueror of the Scorching Sun Guild. Nice to meet you."
Li Yi recognized this person. He shook hands with him and said, "I am Carefree Dream. May I know what the guild leader Sun wants to tell me?"
"Uh, you sure are a straightforward person. Then, I won't beat around the bush. I would like to invite you to join my guild. Your annual salary will be at least a million US dollars. Moreover, as long as you participate in the boss killing, you can choose a piece of equipment that you need first!"
Sun Conqueror immediately voiced out his offer. As soon as he said this, the surrounding people were shocked. This was simply a huge benefit. With an annual salary of more than one million US dollars, paired with being able to choose a piece of equipment that he needed first. His sincerity was definitely enough.
Even the two men and two women behind him looked at their guild leader in shock. They had discussed it before. Their annual salary was only 500,000 US dollars. They did not have any priority in choosing equipment.
Only after they make a great contribution in the future would he give them such a high privilege. Now that their guild leader had actually thrown out all the conditions, even they looked at their guild leader in shock.
Li Yi currently had no intention of joining the guild. Although he knew that the Scorching Sun Guild had a good reputation and gave him a very good offer, he still would not agree to join.
Li Yi said directly, "I appreciate your good intentions. However, I have no intention of joining any guild at the moment."
"Huh... Carefree Dream, aren't you going to consider it? Our guild's reputation is quite good! It's not as arrogant and despotic as the Proud Guild!!"
When Sun Conqueror heard this, he thought that it was because of the Proud Guild incident that caused Carefree Dream to have negative opinions on guilds. He immediately continued explaining.
Li Yi immediately spoke first, "Sun Conqueror, I would never compare scum like the Proud Guild to you. It's purely because I don't want to join guilds in general. You can rest assured on this point."
Sun Conqueror was also relieved, "I understand now. If you want to join a guild, you can contact me anytime. Our guild is open to you at any time!"
Li Yi nodded and said, "Alright!"
Then, he took out the equipment that he had exchanged for and asked, "I have some equipment that I need to sell. I don't know if you guys need it!!"
"Of course we do. I'll take it all. I don't know what kind of equipment you want to sell. If you don't have enough game coins, I can just cash it in and give it all to you!!"
Without even thinking about it, Sun Conqueror said that he would take all of them.
First of all, his guild had a large number of members. Many of them did not even have a single piece of equipment. Even if he had a beginner's sword, if he did not rely on the cooperation of a large group of players, it would have been difficult for him to even reach level 3!
Now that he heard that he was selling equipment, it was like a timely assistance.. He would definitely take as many as he could get.

Chapter 11: Selling Equipment, Lost Ring
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
When Li Yi heard this, he took out eight pieces of equipment and said, "Here ya go! These are all the equipment. Take a look for yourself. If you don't need them, just return them. There's no need to force yourself to take them back."
All eight pieces of equipment were normal grade. Divine Revelation had a certain bonus to the drop rates when fighting monsters of a higher level. Otherwise, normal people would not be able to get so many pieces of equipment.
Li Yi had fought hundreds of monsters, and each of them was a monster that was higher in level. By fighting these monsters, he had obtained a few pieces of equipment.
Each of them were normal equipment. The defensive equipment was considered average, but the demand was not very high. However, for some people who wanted to kill elite monsters or bosses, they had to buy them.
Among them, there were two level 1 waist blades. It must be known that the beginner sword that the system had given out only had 5 attack points. This waist blade, together with the bonus to strength, already had 25 attack points.
It was more than five times higher than the sword that the game had given to people. It could be said that it would directly double up anyone's attack points, and this could help their leveling speed to increase greatly!
Sun Conqueror gulped and immediately asked, "I wonder how many game coins you want to sell it for?"
Li Yi directly replied, "Defensive equipment costs 15 silver coins, and weapons cost 60 silver coins!"
There were a total of four defensive equipment, two other weapons, and two level 1 waist blades. At most these will cost 1 gold coin and 80 silver coins in total. This was a very reasonable offer that did not provide a sky-high price.
Even if he sold the armor to a shop, he would still be able to earn 3 silver coins. Both parties definitely knew this. Selling the armor five times higher was already considered a bargain for them. The armor traders outside of the shop were at least seven times higher.
Moreover, the guild was in short supply. This was because there were too many guild members that needed armor to fight high-tiered monsters. If one did not buy it, there would be plenty of people who would.
Sun Conqueror knew that the other party had given him a chance, so he directly said, "I'll buy all of them. Let's directly trade."
In the early stages, most people would kill Level 1 Black Rats. A Black Rat would at most provide 1 to 2 copper coins. Sometimes, there would be nothing at all that drops. These defensive weapons could be said to have cost half of their guild's money.
Right as they were about to trade, Li Yi suddenly remembered that he still wanted to sell the greatsword too. He immediately took out his greatsword and said, "Oh, right! I also have a weapon. Do you guys want it?"
"This? A fine quality weapon? Then you... hmm..."
Sun Conqueror was just about to ask, wouldn't Li Yi need it more than his guild? However, he did not question and shut his mouth knowing how generous Li Yi was already being.
Since others wanted to sell it, they would definitely have better equipment. Otherwise, why would they sell it?
At this moment, Li Yi took out the greatsword and sold it. The players around them immediately started speaking about the trade that was going on, shocked by the amount of equipment Li Yi had. Their eyes could not help but look at the double-edged steel sword on his back.
If he was going to sell the good equipment, he must have obtained a better weapon. Could this be a flawless grade weapon?
For a moment, everyone's eyes were not on the greatsword but towards the steel sword on his back!
Li Yi looked at them and did not say anything. Then, he continued, "Do you want it? If you don't want it, I'll take It back!"
"Yes! Of course, I want it!!"
Sun Conqueror's breath quickened a little. He immediately said, "I wonder how much you want to sell it for?"
Li Yi calmly replied, "2 gold coins."
"Well... I... I think we don't have enough gold coins. I wonder if we can use our bank card to transfer the money?"
Sun Conqueror's eyes were fixated on the greatsword as he cautiously asked.
Anyone with a discerning eye could see that the price of gold coins was skyrocketing. It had already reached 30 USD per silver coin, and it would rise a lot more in the future. Using cash to buy it would definitely be a great advantage.
Li Yi understood this as well. In the early days, money was tight, and even the guild leader might not have many gold coins to use. The guild would definitely have to save up some necessary expenses to afford something like that. Therefore, he directly nodded and said, "Sure, but the proportion of cash is at most 30%. The rest would need to be paid with game coins."
"Okay! Wait a minute or two, I'll make some money!!"
Sun Conqueror immediately contacted the others and asked them to mail game coins to him. Soon, he had made enough gold coins, and then directly traded the equipment over.
Divine Revelation had a special cash trading system, which could be said to be a virtual bank. It could set up hidden account information, and with the current methods, no one would be able to trace it and hack into others' accounts.
After the transaction was completed, both parties added each other as friends and left the scene. After obtaining the good equipment, the guild members could not wait to challenge even better monsters.
Li Yi's current sum was 3 gold coins, 20 silver coins, and 1,800 USD. It was a large sum for a single player.
After bidding farewell to the members of the Scorching Sun guild, Li Yi walked towards the Village Chief's house. It was time to hand in the mission.
...
At this moment, the Village Chief was still standing at the door. After Li Yi walked over, the Village Chief immediately laughed.
"Powerful adventurer, you've finally returned safely."
"Yes, Village Chief! I've brought back the item you requested!"
Li Yi immediately took out the white stone and handed it over to the Village Chief.
When the Village Chief saw this stone, his eyes revealed traces of excitement. He immediately opened the door behind him and beckoned for him to hurry in.
The Village Chief's room was very simple. There were only a few tables and chairs in the living room.
Li Yi followed the Village Chief inside and came to a room. There were many books inside. The Village Chief immediately walked further inside, took out a book, and carefully rummaged through the pages to find something.
Li Yi did not say anything. Instead, he focused on the patterns on the bookshelves and waited for the Village Chief to find what he was looking for.
After a while, the Village Chief shouted, "I found it! As expected! This ring has an extremely special magical power!!"
Following that, the Village Chief took out the ring and carefully placed the small white stone on the surface of the ring. As he muttered to himself, the small stone slowly emitted a bright light, this forced them to close their eyes.
Li Yi was very familiar with this and had already turned his back on the ring. Right now, this ring should have evolved into an excellent grade attribute. There were still two more evolutions before it could reach the perfect grade.
Moreover, it was an extremely powerful attribute that had no rank restriction. It was definitely an invaluable piece of jewelry.
About five seconds passed before the ring's glow slowly faded. At this time, the Village Chief looked at the ring in his hand and could not help but sigh.
"I am certain that the power of this ring has not completely reached its full potential. However, there is nothing I can do. I am sure that you can ask Scarkey where to find it. He is more knowledgeable than me. He must know!"
On the surface of the ring, there was already a white gem, and a faint pattern on the surface, which made it seem really mysterious.
Li Yi took the ring from the Village Chief and said, "Okay, Village Chief, I'll go ask Mr. Scarkey!"
[System Notification: Mission updated!]
[Mission Content: Find Scarkey in the village, ask for information about the ring! (fourth round)]
[Mission Rewards: Unknown!]
"Go! Powerful adventurer, I'm proud of you for walking out of my village!"
Li Yi walked out of the house and started to check the attributes of the ring.

[Equipment Condition: No level restriction]
It was indeed a piece of god-tier equipment, and it was even level-free. It was something that could evolve twice more in the future too. No wonder this NPC mission was so popular in his previous life. It was not without reason.
The most important thing was that his attack speed had increased by 0.3. This was definitely good news for him, who was about to kill a gray-silver boss.
Having an increase in attack speed would improve his hit rate and movement rate.. His mind felt at ease now knowing that his attacks will be smoother in the future.

Chapter 12: Big Breasts and Big Tits, The Shock of a Little Follower
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Li Yi was currently heading towards the house at the end of the village. That was the house of Scarkey. There was no indication on the map of the village. It was said that the first person who had received this mission in the past had to search for a few days in the village to find where this Scarkey was.
After more than ten minutes of traveling, he finally arrived outside Scarkey's residence. Without any hesitation, he walked up and knocked on the door.
"Is Mr. Scarkey at home?"
After a long time, a man walked over and opened the door. He seemed to have just awoken.
"Who is it?"
"My name is Carefree Dream. The Village Chief said that you know the conditions for unlocking this ring. I want to come and ask about the next step of the operation!" Li Yi pointed at the ring on his hand and spoke to him.
Scarkey opened his eyes lazily this time. He glanced at the ring on his hand and immediately recognized the origin of the ring. He spoke in an indifferent manner towards Li Yi.
"This should be the Lost Ring! It actually appeared in your hand. It seems that this ring is fated for you. I know some clues about this ring, but it might be dangerous? I don't know if you are willing to go."
Li Yi replied, "Please tell me!"
"There is a dangerous place in the Northwest of the village. The thing that you are looking for? If you are close to the clues, your ring will emit a bit of light. The closer you are to the clues, the brighter it will be. Go, don't disturb my sleep!"
After saying that, Scarkey yawned and went back into the house.
[System Notification: Mission updated! ]
[Mission Content: Head to the Northwest of the village to look for the clue. You will have a new discovery! (fifth ring)]
[Mission Rewards: Unknown!]
Li Yi knew where the clue was. It was just that he needed to ask about the mission now. Otherwise, the mission would not have triggered the next event.
He came to the potion merchant. At this moment, he could already be considered rich. He had spent 60 silver coins and bought 200 bottles of Mana Potions. It was definitely enough.
...
He left the village and walked towards his destination. After walking for a while, he suddenly saw a group of people in the distance. Coincidentally, this group of people was the Proud Guild people, which were also the few people he had killed. At this moment, they surrounded a female player.
That female player only wore the cloth clothes that the system had given her. However, her beautiful and refined face, as well as her proud figure, could not be concealed. Her long eyelashes trembled slightly.
At this moment, this girl looked at the few people in front of her with a somewhat awkward expression.
"Our Proud Guild has no ill intentions. We just want to be friends with you. Our party is still lacking a player who shall become a healing mage in the future. You should join our guild!!" The leader said sincerely, but the desire in his eyes could not be hidden.
"Yes, yes, the boss is right!!" His subordinates also echoed.
The female player hesitated for a long time before carefully saying, "Proud Dali, I... I heard that your guild specializes in robbing others and occupying territory. They said that you guys aren't a good guild."
"How is that possible? We are a well-known guild for justice. We specialize in protecting the weak and are wary of those high-level players bullying the weak. How can we be such a guild? You must have been deceived."
"Yes, you must have been deceived. We just saw Carefree Dream bullying the weak and tried to defeat him. Because of that, several of our members lost their levels."
"If you don't believe me, you can ask the people next to you!"
Proud Dali immediately pointed at the players that trained next to him and asked kindly, "Aren't you right? We always protect you guys from getting hurt!!"
"Hmm... Yes... Yes!"
The players who were pointed at were trembling and afraid but did not dare to say anything. If they provoked this group of people, they would definitely bite you and not let you go.
"Then... then fine, I'll add..."
"Wait! With your trash behavior, you have the nerve to talk about justice?"
Li Yi walked over at this moment. He did not want to meddle in other people's business, but when he got closer, he saw a familiar ID, Snow Chaser!
Snow Chaser was a very famous support healer in her previous life. She had a sweet voice and a very good character. Her popularity could be said to be one of the best in Divine Revelation. Almost everyone had received her help.
However, her own luck was very bad. In the early stages, she was tricked into joining Proud Guild and they asked to meet her offline. She was almost killed by these beasts.
Fortunately, her friends followed her. When they saw that something was wrong, they immediately called the police to avoid a tragedy.
Even so, she did not hold a grudge against the Proud Guild. She continued to play until the later stages of the game. At this time, the gods in Divine Revelation gradually woke up and a large number of monsters returned to the human world.
She joined a guild that counterattacked the gods, but who knew that the guild leader would actually join the Protoss. She knew that she would rather die than join the Protoss in the future, and she even persuaded the guild leader not to do such a thing.
In order to prevent the matter from being exposed, the guild leader lured her to a valley and forced her to submit. In the end, she was surrounded and killed by a large number of players who joined the Protoss. Her body was offered to the Protoss, and she was controlled into a soulless puppet.
After this game was connected to reality, she could no longer be revived. If she died, she would be completely dead.
It was just a pity that she had never found a good person to rely on in her entire life. It was very tragic!
However, she was definitely a very reliable teammate. She could be trusted 100%. It was not a bad choice to let her be his personal support.
The buffs in the middle and late stages could increase one's combat power by several times. Who would not give themselves a few buffs when entering a dungeon?
...
"Who... who dares to speak..."
Proud Dali immediately turned around angrily. He was about to curse when he was stunned. He saw a terrifying person. However, there was a girl behind him, so he still shouted unyieldingly.
"Carefree Dream, what do you want to do? I told you not to be too arrogant. Sooner or later, I will make you pay the price!!"
Li Yi could not be bothered with these clowns. It wasn't worth it to kill them with their red names, so he directly pushed them away.
"Ignore these clowns. Their guild members are all the same. They kill, rob, and occupy the leveling point. How many people around here don't pay protection fees?"
Snow Chaser looked at the few people at the side and asked with confusion, "What he said, is it true?"
Li Yi turned around to look at them and said indifferently, "Is it? Have I wronged you?"
"You... Carefree Dream, just you wait, sooner or later I will teach you a lesson... Let's Go!!"
Proud Dali looked at the powerful equipment and did not dare to continue fighting the stronger-looking person. Otherwise, he would lose the experience that he had spent so much effort to accumulate, so he left with his men.
"Let's go, follow me. They are scum, to begin with!! If you don't believe me, look at the people around you."
The people around saw the members of Proud Guild leave and were very happy. They said one after another.
"Yes! The members of Proud Guild are the villains guild. They occupy the leveling spots every day."
"Yes, they are definitely the villains guild. Don't join them!!"
Snow Chaser looked at the people around her and confirmed that it was indeed the case. Then, she said, "Alright, I promise you!!"
"Okay! Let's go!"
...
Soon, the two of them arrived at the base of the Wild Wolf. At this time, there were already a few players who had formed a party to level up. However, there were still a lot of people who were beaten up by the Wild Wolf.
After all, their attack and defense were too low. They did not even have a single piece of equipment on them. Relying on their advantage in numbers, four to five people worked together to kill the Wild Wolf.
Li Yi took a look at a Wild Wolf and directly went forward to slash at the neck of the Wild Wolf.
"-419! Weak Point Damage!"
A piece of flawless equipment just like this was indeed terrifying. With one hit, the Wild Wolf with 250 HP was instantly killed on the spot.
Snow Chaser was just about to step forward to help when she saw the Wild Wolf get instantly killed in one hit. She looked at the person in front of her in disbelief. How long had he been in this game? How could he have such powerful strength?
She herself had to be careful even when she fought a Black Rat. Now that he had killed a Wild Wolf in one hit that had 250 HP. Even the damage was overpowering. Was he really that terrifying?
Li Yi shook his head and said, "Let's go! The monsters here are too weak. Let's go somewhere else."
"Oh... Okay!!"
Snow Chaser was immersed in the instant kill just now. She only regained her senses after Li Yi had taken a few steps forward and quickly followed behind him.
The surrounding players were also speechless as they watched the two players leave. Were the monsters here too weak?

Chapter 13: Elite Farming Spots, Defensive Potions
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
After the instant kill of the Wild Wolf, Snow Chaser was also greatly shocked. She sneakily observed Li Yi. Then, she asked curiously, "Where are we going?"
"Hehe! You'll know once we get there." Li Yi did not explain too much.
An hour later, the two of them climbed over a small hill. Monsters of all sizes appeared around them, just like green goo. These things were good at poison attacks.
This was the first mysterious location away from the Novice Village. However, it was an area that could spawn elite-level monsters. In his previous life, when he knew about this location, his level was already too high for the monsters here. So, he had no reason to come here.
However, his current level was just right. He had just gotten a lot of equipment. It was a very good choice to come here to level up.
Snow Chaser looked at the harmless green goo in front of her and directly went forward to check the attributes of the monster.
[Level 6 Green Mud Monster (elite)]
[Vitality: 2,000]
[Physical Attack: 135]
[Physical Defense: 40]
[Other: Attack with poison]
When Snow Chaser saw this powerful attribute, she was so scared that she stepped back in fear. She turned around and asked, puzzled.
"What are we doing here? The attributes of these monsters are too high. We can't beat them. Let's go and fight the Black Rats, Wild Wolves, and other monsters, shall we?"
Snow Chaser felt that it was impossible to fight these monsters now. She might be killed in one hit.
"Form a party. Otherwise, you won't get any experience."
Li Yi immediately sent out a party request.
After Snow Chaser agreed, she realized that the other party was already level 5. She said in surprise, "You're leveling up so fast. You're already level 5. However, this elite monster is still not easy to fight. Its attributes are really too high."
"I'll go up and fight the monster. You stay behind and be careful not to be attacked."
Li Yi did not explain. He directly headed towards the Green Mud Monster. Only by using his strength could he make her give up on the idea of leaving.
Li Yi walked forward and entered the aggro range of the Green Mud Monster. The two elite-level Green Mud Monsters also aggressively jumped towards him.
When he was about a few steps away, a tentacle with green goo extended from the monster's body and pulled towards him.
"-63."
"-66."
"-40! Poison Damage"
"-40! Poison Damage"
...
Li Yi was being attacked. This time, red and green numbers appeared above his head.
Snow Chaser watched from the side as the two Green Mud Monsters surrounded him. Li Yi's calm expression caused Snow Chaser to cover her mouth in shock. She could not believe what was happening before her eyes.
"This..." Snow Chaser's understanding of the game was pretty good. Otherwise, she would not have become a famous healing mage in her past life. This round of attacks, together with the poison attack, had already caused him to lose at least 200 HP.
Logically speaking, he should have fallen a long time ago. However, at this moment, as if nothing had happened, his HP Bar had only decreased by a small amount. Moreover, his HP recovered rapidly.
Snow Chaser immediately looked at his HP bar information carefully. Only then did she realize that the other party's HP was almost over 5,000. It was no wonder that he was not afraid of fighting two elite-level green mud monsters alone.
"Could he be an SS-grade talent?"
Snow Chaser shook her head. She felt that her brain was a little muddled. This game had mentioned a little bit about the possibility of an SS-grade talent being one in a billion. Yet, she had encountered one just like that?
Could it be that he was the legendary European Emperor?
At this moment, Li Yi saw that the monster had entered the attack range and immediately activated his skill.
"Raging Blood Roar!"
"-407."
"-417."
...
While the two Green Mud Monsters were stunned, Li Yi took the opportunity to attack the head of one of the Green Mud Monsters with his double-edged sword.
"Combo!"
The double-edged sword in his hand instantly slashed out two slashes, it had accurately hit the head of the monster in front of him.
"-257! Weak Point Damage!"
"-504! ! Weak Point Damage, Critical Hit!"
There was no time to react.
"Heavy Strike!"
"-561! Weak Point Damage!"
The Combo skill was indeed very good, and he could even forcefully use Heavy Strike to end the monster. However, this combo required a certain level of control and proficiency in the skill, or else it would definitely become a missed hit!
This was not a game, but it was a virtual reality that mimicked real life. Many places were designed according to reality.
After using Heavy Strike, Combo could not be used. This was the result of many people's experiments.
The 2,000 HP elite monster was instantly reduced to a low HP state in a second. To some players, this was as exciting as a horror movie!
The Green Mud Monster had already changed its shape after being heavily injured. However, it quickly recovered. It let out a scream and prepared to launch a fierce attack.
Li Yi's attack speed was now 1.4. The speed of his sword was even faster than that of an elite monster!
"176."
[Talent Trigger: Obtained 20 HP, 0.2 HP Recovery/second ]
...
At this moment, a golden light appeared all over Snow Chaser's body. A large amount of experience from an elite monster had directly raised her level from 60% of level 1 to 25% of Level 2. This kind of leveling speed was probably something that no one in the entire server could achieve.
Fighting monsters that were higher in level would give her the most experience. Moreover, it was an extremely strong elite-level monster.
Snow Chaser said excitedly, "I leveled up to level 2 so quickly. That was really quick!!!"
Snow Chaser had experienced situations where players had fought many monsters in the wild monster area. After fighting for so long, she had barely reached 60% of level 1. She had always felt that this was how leveling up was, extremely timely and difficult.
However, at this moment, she realized that leveling up was actually so simple. She had leveled up in just a few seconds.
"Thank you so much!!"
Snow Chaser was also pleasantly surprised. She had understood some of the rules of the game. Helping people level up was equal to sharing an experience. She had leveled up without even using any strength.
Snow Chaser silently decided that she would definitely repay him properly in the future. She definitely could not continue receiving help like this.
"-51."
"-40. Poison Damage!"
The remaining Green Mud Monster used its attack to interrupt the conversation between the two.
Li Yi moved his feet to the left to dodge its next attack. He waved the weapon in his hand and swung it at it. The attack pattern of the Green Mud Monster was not very complicated. After Li Yi slashed a few times, he used Heavy Strike to end the battle.
...
In the next few hours. The two of them had a clear division of labor. One fought the monsters, and the other collected the items.
The elite monsters had a lot of EXP. Li Yi had also reached level 6!
Relying on his SSS-grade talent, Blood Devour effect, his HP had reached an astonishing 8,385.
Snow Chaser had also just reached level 5. She could not wait to put on the equipment that she had obtained during this period of time. There were three pieces of equipment — green leather clothing, green leather pants, and a green leather hat.
Although the green leather clothes looked strange, they were definitely good clothes that outlined one's figure.
The loose beginner's clothes that the system had given her could not be seen as an appealing outfit. However, when she put on the small leather clothes and leather pants, her proud figure was completely revealed. It was somewhat intoxicating and enticing.
Snow Chaser also turned around on the spot and said, "How is it?! Does it look good?"
Li Yi came back to his senses and said, "Not bad, this leather suit suits you!"
"You're Level 5 now, it's time to go back and learn some skills. Magic Apprentice's have two skills in the early stage, a small fireball spell, and a healing spell. Learn all of them."
"Okay! I'll go back immediately. This way, I can participate in killing monsters!!"
Snow Chaser ran towards the village excitedly.
...
Li Yi continued to walk forward and found a green treasure chest behind a huge rock!
"A boss treasure chest??"
Li Yi went forward and opened it. Since the surrounding monsters had been cleared by him, there was no need to be afraid even if the boss came out.
[System notification: Treasure chest opening, 30 seconds countdown.]
[System notification: Treasure chest opening, Countdown time: 29 seconds.]
...
After the countdown ended, the treasure chest immediately trembled. Then, golden light filled the entire cabin, and several items flew out from it.
Li Yi immediately went forward to pick it up and began to check the loot.
[Item: Defensive potion recipe ]
[Effect: After drinking the defensive potion, the level will increase by 15 levels within an hour, as well as 10% physical and magic defense. The effects can not be stacked.]
"This is definitely a good item. It is definitely one of the necessary potions to kill the boss. I did not expect to get it so easily."
He immediately put away his bag and looked at the remaining piece of equipment.
[Equipment: Lock Leg Binding]
[Quality: Excellent]
[Physical Defense: 11]
[Excellent Attributes: Strength 3, Stamina 5]
[Equipment Requirements: Level 5]
It was not bad. Li Yi directly swapped his gear and his defense increased to 57 points.. Currently, most of the players were around level 2 to level 4, which was almost comparable to the attack of some players who did not have high-level equipment.

Chapter 14: The King of the Green Mud Monsters, Bramble Effect Damage
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Not long after, Li Yi opened the green treasure chest, and the ground began to tremble. It was as if something was trying to emerge from the ground.
"Roar!!"
An angry roar came from afar, and countless cracks appeared on the ground. Soon after, a large amount of green goo spewed out from the cracks from the ground. Li Yi observed as the green goo slowly formed into a creature.
As soon as this huge Green Mud Monster appeared, it loudly roared. It spewed out large amounts of venom from its mouth, and sprayed it into every corner. This turned the ground into a poisonous swamp.
Li Yi immediately went forward to check its attributes.
[Boss: Level 7 King of Green Mud Monsters]
[Rarity: Black-iron]
[HP: 8,000]
[Physical Attack: 375]
[Physical Defense: 180]
[Magic Defense: 50]
[Boss Skill: ???]
[Black-iron Skill: ???]
...
Aside from the fact that Li Yi's HP was much higher than the boss's, the other attributes of the boss were much lower.
"Chi!"
"-20! Poison Damage!"
Li Yi had only taken a few steps forward when he was hit by the poison. The range of the poison followed the movement of the boss. This meant that it was impossible to pull the boss out to fight. However, the damage was not too high for Li Yi, so there was no need to be afraid.
Li Yi quickly circled behind the boss. At this moment, he could reach the vital spot on the top of the boss's head. He took advantage of this weak spot when the boss turned around to attack. Then, Li Yi immediately let out an angry roar.
"Raging Blood Roar!"
Li Yi gathered huge amounts of energy in his body and charged fiercely towards the direction of the monster. However, this time, the stun lasted less than a second. Under normal circumstances, the boss would have an anti-status attribute.
"-650!"
While the boss was still stunned, the pairing of the attack Combo and Heavy Strike directly hit the boss.
"-45."
"-60."
"-189! Critical Hit"
The King of Green Mud Monsters, which was as big as a tank, woke up from the pain and whipped its long tentacles.
"-310."
The boss's attack was a little scary, as the attack points allowed it to deal so much damage. Not only that, it had a moderately high defense. If it was anyone else, they would easily die if they did not have enough defense points.
Li Yi did not back down from the attack. Although this boss's attack range was very wide, its huge body's speed would definitely become much slower.
With his HP summing up to more than 8,000 points, alongside his terrifying recovery speed, as long as he carefully dodged the attacks swiftly, he would not need to be too anxious even if he was hit a few times.
He continued to play a push and pull game as he waited for the cooldown of his skills to recover. He went up and used Raging Blood War, Combo, and Heavy Strike.
Not long after, the HP of the King of Green Mud Monsters had reached around 20%. Li Yi had been observing its HP all this while.
However, when the monster just reached 20% HP, it immediately stopped attacking.
"Roar!!!"
It immediately let out an angry roar. Its body suddenly expanded to nearly twice its original size, and its entire body oozed with green goo.
"Huh? It looks like the boss is about to use the skill Berserk?"
Li Yi immediately took a step back. The attributes of using the skill Berserk had doubled its points, and it even gave the boss a special skill.
He definitely could not face the boss head-on!
Li Yi also seemed to be unlucky as the probability of this boss using Berserk was actually very low. Unless it was a special boss, players would rarely experience bosses like these to use the Berserk skill.
The King of Green Mud Monster then let out a furious roar. A large amount of venom gushed out from its body and spread out in the surroundings. It actually formed a huge wave that rushed towards Li Yi!
"Hu!"
Li Yi had been directly hit!
"-500! Poison Damage!"
[System Notification: You have received the King of Green Mud Monster's berserk attack. You will lose 500 HP per second. Lasts for 5 seconds.]
"Thank goodness I have a lot of HP and a fast recovery speed!"
Li Yi immediately ran into the distance. This berserk mode was not limited to this range. He had only run a few steps when the next wave of the boss's attack came.
Li Yi immediately jumped onto a rock in the distance and dodged the boss's berserk skill. If he stayed in the boss's range of attack, even if he had more than 8,000 HP, he would not be able to withstand it.
Li Yi then sat on the rock and watched as the boss went berserk.
This King of Green Mud Monsters seemed to be having a good time. It actually did not stop there and continued on with its attack. It carried on, the third wave, the fourth wave, the fifth wave... until many waves occurred, it happened until it was almost impossible for Li Yi to keep count.
At this moment, the monster spewed out the attacks like a bottomless pit, with countless venom stored in it. Even after it had spit out its attack so many times, it did not seem to have any intention of stopping.
...
After nearly a good ten minutes, the King of Green Mud Monsters finally stopped roaring, and the green goo around its body weakened.
[System Notification: The King of Green Mud Monsters has ended its Berserked state. It has entered a weakened state for 5 minutes. Defense, attack, and movement speed have been reduced by 80%!]
Li Yi immediately stood up and walked towards the boss. At this moment, the boss still wanted to fight back. However, its speed had been reduced by too much. He could easily dodge the attack and directly use Raging Blood Roar, Combo, and Heavy Strike on it.
"-670!"
"-143."
"-184."
"-307."
...
[Talent Trigger: Obtained 80 HP, 0.8 HP Recovery/second]
Under Li Yi's continuous attacks, the monster quickly died. It surged forward as a final attempt to attack him and died. With that, it also dropped many items.
There was a gold coin, a green staff, and a green book.
"Another skill book?"
[Item: Bramble Reflect Damage (skill book)]
[Usage requirement: Apprentice Warrior]
[Effect: Passive skill. All physical damage received will be reflected back with 5% true damage!]
It was actually a passive skill that reflected damage. This was a perfect match for him. Coupled with his SSS grade talent — Blood Devour, it was definitely another much-needed skill.
By relying on his talent to increase his health, as well as his health recovery speed, he could even stand still and wait for his enemy to be injured to death. However, it was a pity that he could not reflect damage from magic. It was no matter now that he had gained a new reflective skill for physical attacks!
[Equipment: Emerald Scepter]
[Rarity: Excellent]
[Magic Attack: 42]
[Excellent Attribute: Intelligence 7, Spirit 5]
[Equipment Condition: Level 5]
"This is not bad. Snow Chaser is definitely well suited to use this weapon. With the increase in damage, it would help me easily defeat other monsters!"
The healing ability of a healing mage meant that the higher the intelligence, the more HP the healing mage would have. This could be considered a top-tier scepter.

Chapter 15: Popular Game, The Class Monitor's Invitation
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
After collecting up the items dropped by the boss, he saw that the Lost Ring on his hand started to flicker.
"Looks like the clue to this thing is nearby."
Li Yi looked around and suddenly saw a small cave in the distance. He then walked inside.
There was a lot of sticky goo in the cave. It looked like the Green Mud Monsters had used it as a nest. The deeper he walked into the cave, the faster the Lost Ring flashed.
When he reached a stone, the ring had already begun to vibrate intensely. It seemed to be right there. Li Yi pushed the stone away with a little force.
He did not find the stone that he had found a while ago. Instead, it was a crystal plate.
[Item: Crystal Plate (mission Item)]
[Effect: !]
"The item required for the mission is indeed here!!"
Li Yi immediately picked up the item and put it into his backpack. He was about to walk out of the cave when he suddenly received a notification.
[System Notification: You have exceeded the maximum time you can be online. For your safety, the system will force you to go offline in ten minutes. Please forgive us as taking a break is important and we care about your health!!]
There was indeed a mandatory time to go offline in the early stages of the game for the sake of everyone's safety. However, after realizing that everyone was not too uncomfortable playing long hours in the game, there was no longer a notification for the mandatory time to go offline.
"Log off!"
...
After walking out of the game pod, he went to the bathroom to take a shower. Only then did he realize that he was a little hungry. After all, nutrient fluids could not be compared to real food. He immediately took out the groceries he bought and prepared a meal for himself.
However, at this moment, his appetite was big. He ate all the food he bought for two days in one sitting. It was now around 12 p.m. in the afternoon. He could go online after going out to buy some more food and to catch up on his sleep.
He walked out of the main door and breathed in the fresh air outside, he felt very comfortable. There were more people on the streets at this moment, but most of them only discussed one topic.
"I just purchased a game helmet today. When I entered Novice Village, it was packed. There were more players than monsters. I might as well go offline directly and wait for you guys to level up."
"Exactly. I was just a step too late and ended up like this."
"I have to say, the people from the Immortal Rain Pavilion in the No. 67,000 Novice Village are really powerful. It is said that they sent over a hundred people to defeat a black-iron boss. Now, a large number of people have joined them!!"
"That's nothing. I heard that a person from a certain Novice Village killed a black-iron boss alone. I suspected that it was fake though. How could someone kill it alone?"
"I heard that too. However, if the server announcement released it, it must be true. Someone killed a black-iron boss by themself. I heard that this person might be living a dream."
"..."
Li Yi did not pay much attention to it. He walked into a convenience store and began to purchase supplies.
...
After Li Yi finished getting his groceries, he walked out of the convenience store. He glanced at his phone and realized that his phone battery was low. He then went back to the convenience store to buy a 100 yuan recharge card and charged it.
However! Just as his phone's communication network was restored, he saw someone giving him a ring. It was his university classmate, Wang Qiang. He did not know why this person had called him, but he picked it up nonetheless.
"Hello, Wang Qiang, why did you think of calling me?"
"Heyo, I finally got through to your phone. Did you go missing? You stopped contacting me after graduation!"
Wang Qiang directly complained over the phone.
Li Yi was stunned and explained, "Uh, definitely not. I didn't realize my phone battery had died. You called me just as I was charging my phone."
"Oh, is that so? Then the time for you to charge your phone was just right. There's a class reunion tonight at 7 p.m. and the venue is at the Bi Qi Club. I heard that our class monitor will be there too! Your chance is now!!"
Wang Qiang said excitedly over the phone.
Li Yi, who had reincarnated, was not interested in the current class monitor anymore. Instead, he directly asked, "Why is there a class reunion all of a sudden?"
"I'm not too sure either, but we still have to get together more often. Otherwise, our relationship will become estranged. You have to be there tonight. I'll add your name. When the time comes, you can just sign in. I'll hang up first."
After Wang Qiang said that, he hurriedly hung up the phone.
Li Yi did not think much about it and continued his journey home.
It seemed that his phone had stopped working in his previous life. Moreover, all his attention was on Divine Revelation, so he did not pay too much attention to the low battery message. He did not attend this class reunion at that time, so he was not clear about what had happened.
However, what was certain was that this class reunion should be related to Divine Revelation.
Looking at the clock on the wall, it was not even 1:00 p.m. It was still very early before the 7:00 p.m. class reunion.
He used his phone to set the alarm for 6:00 p.m. and prepared to sleep before attending the reunion. Anyway, the hotel was relatively close to his place, and it had been a tiring day playing the game.
...
At 6:00 p.m. Li Yi was woken up on time by the alarm clock. He immediately got up and tidied himself up. Then, he went out to take a taxi to the hotel. When he arrived at the hotel, it was already 6:40 p.m. The time was just right. Li Yi went up and checked his name on the list with the guards. The guard looked at the name list and let him pass.
Li Yi walked into the hall of the club, found a remote corner, and sat down.
At this time, many people had already come to the hall. Each of them was well-dressed and their faces were full of excitement. They walked in the hall, exchanged hugs and pleasantries with familiar classmates, not forgetting to exchange business cards too of course.
There were also some people who were surrounded by a few classmates and talked about their current achievements.
"Compared to the previous student gatherings, this time it has really changed a lot."
After three years of not seeing each other, he had become increasingly unfamiliar with many of his classmates. Society was like a melting pot. Many people lived in it, and more or less, there were some changes.
Li Yi was not interested in participating in the conversations that went on. Instead, he sat quietly on the sofa, drank his red wine, and waited for the details of the party.
Soon after, the music in the hall became gentle, and the people around them also quieted down. Then, a woman in a gorgeous dress, like a delicate swan, slowly walked into the center of the hall.
Nicole, the class monitor of her university days. She was also the dream lover of most people in the school. Li Yi was no exception. After all, there were many men around her.
Nicole picked up the microphone and began to greet the students around her. Then, she glanced at the people around her and told them the reason why she had organized this gathering.
"I believe that everyone knows that Divine Revelation has already been activated. I have created a guild behind me. Misty Rain Guild is now preparing to recruit a group of core members. All of you are my classmates. I recommend all of you to join!"
"Our Misty Rain Guild is very powerful and has a lot of capital. As long as you have the ability, you can even become the king of the world. Your status in this guild is definitely not inferior to that in the real world."
Nicole then began to talk about the benefits. The people below all became interested and listened carefully.
"Misty Rain Guild?"
Li Yi was not too interested in this guild. In his previous life, their guild was not one of the strongest guilds. It was only because Misty Rain Guild was a financial magnate that people invested in. Everything was for the sake of benefits.
If you were completely squeezed out from all your benefits, you would be mercilessly abandoned.
Even if Li Yi wanted to join, he would first choose the Holy Angel Guild, Scorching Sun Guild, and other guilds that were ranked higher in his previous life. The treatment there was at least fair and just.
Nicole's speech had stirred up everyone's excitement at that moment. Many people went to register, but there was still a small portion that did not go. This made the small portion of people get immediately isolated from the rest.
Li Yi was too lazy to talk to the group of isolated people too.. He just silently waited for the end of the class reunion.

Chapter 16: Currency Soaring, Stockpiling Up
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
It was only around 10 p.m. that the student gathering slowly came to an end. Li Yi had also returned home. There was still some time before he went online, so he started to browse information about Divine Revelation on the Internet.
As he entered the forum that was specially set up for players, he saw a large number of posts that refreshed crazily every second.
[136 Novice Village. Misty Rain Pavilion's Guild Leader has led a party to defeat a black-iron boss. A large number of guild members have been recruited. Please leave a message.]
[17877 Novice Village has discovered a gray-silver boss. When they gathered the strength of the majority of the people in the village, they only managed to reduce the boss's HP by 10%. Its strength is too terrifying. Click to view the video.]
[Gold Farming Workshop is selling a large number of game coins. The current ratio is 85 USD per silver coin. No bargaining!!]
[Selling normal-quality equipment. Game coins will be rejected, cash purchase...]
Looking at the large amount of information on it, it was estimated that the game coins were already linked to the real world. Now that most of the people had reached level 5, they had to learn skills.
Moreover, when players reach a higher level, they would need to fight higher-tiered monsters. If necessary, they would need to purchase Health Potions and Mana Potions. Now, it could be said that everyone was short of silver coins, so their currency would definitely soar. Moreover, some of the guilds in the Novice Villages also wanted to snatch the first kill of a gray-silver boss and the first kill reward of a gray-silver boss.
Divine Revelation had long since announced the reward. Among all the Novice Villages, only the first player to kill a gray-silver boss would receive an additional first kill reward. The other villages would no longer get such a reward. One could be certain that they would definitely benefit greatly from this.
Hence, the current guilds were buying gold coins, equipment, and other items generously. They did not care about the price at all. They would not show any mercy when competing with each other. Everyone wanted to seize the opportunity.
'We must be one step ahead.' Everyone had the same thoughts.
...
Right as Li Yi browsed the forum, he suddenly saw a post that he was quite interesting.
[Selling Quartz Flowers in large quantities at a low price, absolutely cheap. People are online, waiting for buyers to arrive at any time!!! Super!! Low!! Prices!!]
"Quartz Flowers?"
This item was one of the main materials in his Defense Potion recipe. Moreover, there was only one place in the Novice Village where it was produced. Currently, no one had discovered its use, so no one wanted to collect it.
Once the level 10 dungeon opened, the need for this item will grow rapidly. The territory that produced this Quartz Flower would also be occupied by large guilds.
The Defense Potion was practically a must-have item for razing this dungeon when everyone's defense was very low. Without this item, one would not even be able to withstand the damage of a dungeon boss, much less kill it.
Li Yi immediately clicked on this post. There were also some players who had asked what was the use of this.
A few people even said disdainfully, "This thing is useless. It's better to kill a few monsters than to collect this. You're really too free."
Li Yi directly ignored this. Now that these people were so indifferent, after a period of time, they would no longer be able to reach a higher position if they did not bother finding out the use of this item. He found the person who posted the post and directly sent a message to him, [I see that you are selling Quartz Flowers for 1 copper coin per flower. Are you still selling?]
[It's too low. I also spent a lot of effort collecting the Quartz Flowers.] The other party immediately replied.
Li Yi was completely unmoved by this and directly replied, [My friend, listen, even I know where this place is. There are no wild monsters there. There are only Quartz Flowers growing there.]
Li Yi's reply also directly broke that person's idea of trying to trick him. He hesitated for a moment and texted, [Then tell me what is the use of this Quartz Flower. I will sell it to you!!]
The other party also wanted to get the use of the Quartz Flower. If Li Yi told him, this player would definitely raise the price.
[I don't know about this. I just think it will be useful in the future. I happen to have some spare money. I will buy it and put it in the warehouse. I say, are you going to sell it or not? If not, I will go buy other people's equipment!!] Li Yi hastily replied.
This kind of indifferent tone was what business was all about. If you showed too much interest in the product, you would definitely be outplayed by others.
In any case, the blueprint for the Defense Potion was in his hands. There was no possibility of a second blueprint dropping in a short time. Even if he could not buy this person's materials, it did not matter. He would definitely not lose anything.
Seeing that Li Yi was not going to buy it, this person was also a little nervous.
[Let's add a little more. 5 copper coins per piece, is that alright? Let's earn some hard money, boss!! In order to collect this Quartz Flower, I did not even go to level up. Now, I can't even afford normal equipment. I just passed by the Novice Village and was stopped by the scum of the Proud Guild players. They robbed me of 5 silver coins, this could send me back to the Novice Village!] the merchant desperately wrote out. It was indeed a long message!
Li Yi did not believe his words at all. The Level 1 members of the Proud Guild could not be bothered with him.
[How many do you have!] Li Yi directly ignored his emotional ploy and asked.
[I only collected 2,023 stalks. All of them are here. I have already collected all of them. It will probably take a few days for them to respawn] replied the other party.
[2 copper coins! I'll take all of them!] Li Yi typed his final offer.
[Don't! Boss, 4 copper coins would be really low enough. It'll take a long time to collect one] the other party quickly replied.
Li Yi saw this person's plea and immediately stopped replying. He went to browse other posts and needed to keep him on the hook. Otherwise, if one of the methods was not good, he would definitely raise the price. After all, game coins were still useful.
The people inside Divine Revelation were quite cunning. They could judge whether you really needed this item or not based on your tone of voice and a series of other factors. It was common for people to raise the price from the ground up.
This person was also very interesting. At first, he did not know about the situation, but after that, he started to play the emotional card to sell the goods. He was definitely a veteran merchant.
If it were any other players, Li Yi would have definitely bought it from them instead. After all, he did not lack this bit of money, but he definitely had to squeeze the merchant dry. If not, he would not be utilizing the experience of him being cheated by the merchant in his previous life.
[Really, it's 3 copper coins!!! Boss, it's really only 3 copper coins. Isn't it very cheap for you?] The merchant sent another message.
...
After a while, it was already 12 p.m.
[Alright, Alright. I didn't find any good equipment. At most, it's 3 copper coins and not a single cent more. You can hang it in the shop now. I'll go and get it!!] Li Yi slowly replied.
[Thank you, boss!! I'll immediately put it up. I won't trouble you to pay the additional 5% handling fee, boss!!] the merchant happily replied.
After all, he had also bought the Quartz Flowers for 3 copper coins. In the end, he realized that it was completely useless and directly smashed it into his hand. He realized he had lost so much that his heart bled.
Now that someone wanted to buy it, he did not lose anything. At most, it was only the 5% handling fee. This did not matter at all!!
Li Yi then went online. He glanced at the shop. There were no other materials for the Defense Potion. So, he spent more than 60 silver coins to buy all 2,023 stalks of Quartz Flowers.
Would this merchant regret his current actions a few days later?

Chapter 17: Demonized Commander, Gathering of Guilds
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
After he walked out of the cave, the time for the elite Green Mud Monsters to respawn still took a while. So, he walked straight into the village. After all, the mission had already indicated that it could be submitted. He was ready to return to the village to receive the next mission.
After he walked for a while, he finally arrived at the village. He walked towards Scarkey's house and knocked on the door.
"Is Mr. Scarkey home?"
Scarkey looked like he had not woken up yet. In a daze, he looked at Li Yi in front of him as if he did not recognize him.
"If you have something to say, say it quickly. You're the one who disturbed me from my dreams!"
Li Yi took out the crystal plate from his backpack and directly spoke.
"Mr. Scarkey, is this what you wanted me to take back? I brought it back."
Li Yi handed the crystal plate to Scarkey.
"Oh? I didn't expect your strength to be so good that you actually found this thing. However, there are still some missing components at the moment. I need to do some research.
One thing is for sure, I can confirm that that place is even more dangerous. Go and increase your strength a little more before asking me more!"
After saying that, Scarkey took the crystal plate and returned to his room.
[System Notification: Mission Updated!]
[Mission Content: Scarkey needs time to find clues about the Lost Ring. Please level up to level 8 before looking for Scarkey to receive the next mission! (sixth ring)]
[Mission Reward: Unknown!]
Li Yi shook his head. He did not expect there to be another level from this mission. Perhaps the guy who completed the mission in his previous life had already surpassed level 8, so there was no such thing. Since that was the case, he would just continue to level up.
Li Yi then walked out of the village.
"Roar!!"
At this moment, he suddenly heard a loud roar from afar. The ground began to slightly tremble. It was comparable to the scene of the boss he killed yesterday, the King of the Green Mud Monsters!
The commotion did not scare everyone. Instead, it made them even more excited. Many people ran out of the village. It seemed that they have already received the news from their teammates.
"Hurry up and leave!!! A special boss has appeared outside the village. We have to kill it. There are definitely fine-tier or even flawless-tier equipment insights for us. Divine Revelation has already notified us."
"I'm pumped! Even if I have to die, I'll?still kill the boss to get rid of a layer of its health!"
Countless players cried out as they frantically ran out of the village. They looked like they were fighting to be first, as if they were afraid that the boss would be killed by someone else.
However, there were still some who did not immediately head over. Many of them knew how powerful the boss was, and they did not have any equipment right now. If they went, they would probably be instantly killed. There were also some who wanted to take advantage of the situation at the last moment.
"A special boss?"
Li Yi suddenly remembered. In the game world, not long after the server opened, an extremely special boss was dropped in all the Novice Villages.
This kind of boss could not be defeated by a few people alone. The mechanism of the boss was different from those black-iron bosses. It required the players to work together.
It was necessary to avoid all the skills of the boss. Otherwise, it would be impossible to kill it.
After the first Novice Village killed this special boss, a large number of equipments, skill books, materials, and other items dropped. The items had a 30-second protection period. After killing the boss, they would have to fight for it with their own abilities.
He remembered some of the items dropped by this special boss. It was said that in the Novice Village where the first boss was killed, one of them had obtained a special necklace. Li Yi did not know the specific effects of the necklace, but the person who had obtained the necklace did not reveal it.
If that was the case, then this necklace should definitely belong to Li Yi. Other equipments, skills, and so on were all trivial matters. With his strength and his memories from his previous life, it would not be difficult for him to obtain these things.
Right now, what he was interested in were those special equipment, tools, and so on. Those were truly priceless treasures. Even gold coins or US dollars could not buy them.
Those things would only appear once in the game. There would never be a second one!
...
"Carefree Dream!!"
Right as Li Yi was about to leave, he suddenly heard someone call out from behind him.
He turned around and saw Snow Chaser running towards him. Her enviable figure was definitely eye-catching when she ran.
From afar, Snow Chaser could see the man with the steel sword on his back. He was also dressed in awe-inspiring armor. In this Novice Village, he seemed to be the most charming-looking person.
"Carefree Dream. I've finished learning my skills. Now, I can fight alongside you."
After saying that, Snow Chaser waved the staff in her hand and said with a proud expression.
"Hey! Very good!"
After saying that, Li Yi took out a gemstone scepter that emitted a faint green light and handed it to her.
"We're going to fight the boss soon. You can use this for now!"
Snow Chaser took the scepter and checked its attributes. Her expression changed drastically and she immediately said, "This... This attribute can be sold for at least 5 gold coins. The real value is at least 45,000 US dollars. This is the equipment you obtained?! I don't have a lot of gold coins right now. Why don't I transfer 45,000 US dollars to you."
Li Yi nodded and said, "Sure!"
Snow Chaser's family background was not bad. It was not difficult for her to take out this money.
"Then it's a deal. Thank you so much. You can't buy this thing even if you have money!"
After Snow Chaser transferred the money, he immediately gave up the new staff to her, and she happily and equipped the powerful staff. The attributes of the staff immediately increased by a large margin.
"Let's go, it's time to take a look at the special boss!"
"Okay!"
...
The two of them went outside of the village. The outside was densely packed with many players. There were at least tens of thousands of players present. Everyone's eyes shined as they stared at the scene in front of them. Those who did not know better would have thought that there was a big star that was hung in the middle.
At this moment, there was a huge cage in front of them. Inside the cage was the main body of the boss. It looked to be in a confined state.
There were already a large number of players that tried to attack the cage. It seemed that the durability of the cage was slowly decreasing.
Watching this, the people from several guilds around them did not move. Their gazes were all locked onto the cage that slowly lost its durability. Everyone knew that this boss was not easy to defeat, so they prepared themselves to observe how it moved first.
There were quite a number of guilds in the Novice Village. There were four to five guilds such as the Undead Guild, Summer Wind Guild, and so on. Li Yi did not know much about them either. It was possible that they had already disbanded in the middle and later stages of the game.
Among these players, only Li Yi was more familiar with the two guilds. One was the Scorching Sun guild, and the other was the Proud guild in the sc*m gathering place.
"Boom!!"
The durability of the cage had reached 0. The cage was broken, and the face of the boss got completely revealed in everyone's eyes!
The boss was at least 5 meters tall, and its entire body was covered in black metal armor. Only a pair of extremely cold eyes were shown as if it was a devil from hell.
A huge red cloak was draped behind its back, and both of its hands gripped on the greatsword. At this moment, its eyes stared coldly at the players in front of it.
[Boss: Demonized Commander]
[Rarity: Special]
[HP: 300,000]
[Physical Attack: 300]
[Magic Attack: 260]
[Physical Defense: 100]
[Magic Defense: 80]
[Boss Skill: ???]
[Special Skill: ???]
As expected, the HP of this special boss was very high. However, its defense was still relatively low. However, it had a lot of f*cking skills! All of them were large-scale attacks!
Fortunately, the Demonized Commander that just came out was still bounded by chains, and it looked like it could not move freely. At that moment, it raised the greatsword in its hand high up and released a long roar.
The next moment, everyone saw a layer of darkness that appeared at the center of the boss's feet, and it instantly covered the surrounding area. If they wanted to attack the boss, they had to enter this area.
[System Notification: The Demonized Commander has used the skill 'Light of Fear'. All players who enter this area will have their attack reduced by 20%! When there are no players in the 'Light of Fear', the boss will immediately refresh its status!]
However, after releasing its skill, the Demonized Commander stood still on the spot. The chains on its body made it unable to move.
At this moment, many players had also charged forward to attack the boss. However, the players, who originally did not have a high attack power, had their attacks reduced, which resulted in an embarrassing number!
"-2."
"-8."
"-1."
"-7."
However, they had the advantage in numbers. There were at least 300 players that surrounded the boss. In just one round of attacks, the boss had already lost close to 1,000 HP.
At this moment, the spectating guilds saw that the boss's movements were restricted. Hence, they decided to send a small portion of their players to attack the boss. Their main force of players was left at the back.
Seeing this situation, Snow Chaser was also prepared to go forward. However, Li Yi immediately pulled her back.
"Let's wait before we go! The boss's condition isn't right at this moment."

Chapter 18: Proud Guild Angered the Masses. What Kind of HP Is This!
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Although the boss's HP was extremely high, it could not withstand the overwhelming numbers. Each of them had dropped a bit of the boss's HP, and in just a few rounds, it had already lost over 10,000 HP.
What an amazing speed!
The Demonized Commander's HP had dropped by 5%. At this moment, everyone's attack had turned into a miss-hit, for a moment, everyone was confused as to why.
The Demonized Commander raised its greatsword again and chanted an incantation out loud. Suddenly, a red cloud appeared above its head. Countless meteors rolled out from the sky as if a meteor shower was about to begin.
[System Notification: The Demonized Commander has begun to use Meteor Shower. Please dodge to the safe zone in time!]
Following this, everyone saw a few white-marked locations not far behind them. It looked like the safe zone. It was at this moment that made everyone was panic. They raised their heads and looked at the huge meteor above them. If it hit them, they would definitely die immediately. A large number of players frantically ran towards the safe zone.
However, there were still quite a number of players who did not run over.
"-297."
"-311."
"-351."
"..."
At this moment, most of the players' magical defenses were already low. Many of them died after they took a hit. All of the warriors who had higher HP points only took two hits to die.
"This is too terrifying!"
Snow Chaser heaved a sigh of relief and said softly, "Fortunately, we didn't go forward. Otherwise, we would have been killed instantly!!!"
...
However, at this moment!
The players in the safe zone suddenly cried out in shock. A few of them were forcefully pushed out and died miserably by the meteor shower attack.
One of the players widened his eyes and looked at the person beside him, "It was you who pushed my brother out!!!"
"Brat, why are you staring at me so wide-eyed? I was careless just now. Get lost, or I'll chop you up!" Proud Dali spoke fiercely.
"You..." That person was so angry that he could not speak. He did not dare to resist at all. Seeing the end of the meteor shower, he was ready to go forward and pick up his teammate's equipment. That was a normal-grade waist knife that was dropped as an item with great difficulty. It could be said to be a godly weapon in the early stages.
However, Proud Dali and the others directly went forward, bent down, and picked up the waist blade. Then, as if nothing had happened, they charged towards the boss.
That player was so angry that his face turned green. However, when he saw Proud Dali's threatening gaze, he could do nothing. His entire body trembled and he immediately left the scene.
However, the members from Proud Guild were not done yet. Those unlucky players who had not entered the safe zone were all wiped out. Although the probability of equipment dropping from white names was small, there were too many people who had died this time.
A group of players with the Proud title at the front of their names swarmed up and put all the equipment into their people's backpacks.
One of the party leaders could not help but voice out, "Proud Guild, you bunch of b*stards!!! You guys are still taking advantage of the situation?????"
Proud Dali said with disdain, "What do you mean by taking advantage of the situation? We are picking up items. There are so many ownerless items, shouldn't we pick them up?"
"What do you mean by ownerless items? You are a bunch of shameless people!!"
Then, a dramatic scene happened. The boss stood there in a daze. At this moment, no one went to fight the boss anymore. Instead, they looked at the members of Proud Guild and started to curse at the few members of that guild.
In the end, it turned into an internal conflict. However, Proud Guild was a guild. They had the advantage in numbers. These few teams that resisted were quickly killed by the members of Proud Guild in front of the boss.
Many people currently looked at the Proud Guild people with anger in their eyes. They did not know who was the leader, but they all rushed forward to fight with the people from this guild!
The boss could only stand there alone. There was no one left to fight. Who knew if the Proud Guild people would launch a sneak attack whilst attacking the boss?
Even the surrounding guild leaders could not bear to watch this situation. With this kind of destructive behavior, this boss was definitely not going to be killed.
Even though they knew that Proud Guild had the backing of a big shot and they could not offend them easily, they had to act now. Otherwise, they would definitely get a bad name in the future. At that time, no high-tiered players wanted to join any of their guilds!
These guild leaders looked at each other. Without saying anything, they decided on one common goal.
First, they would kill the Proud Guild members, then the boss, and then finally get the equipment!
Many guild members surrounded Proud Guild and looked at the members with a sinister smile. Some of them were hot-tempered, so they immediately started to kill the members of the Proud Guild.
Soon, all the members from Proud Guild were eliminated.
...
Li Yi watched from outside the arena. These clowns from the Proud Guild were not worthy of his attention. Right now, he was only concerned about the progress of the boss in the arena.
When the HP of this special boss reaches 50%, the chains on its body would break. There must be someone with high defense to stop this boss. Otherwise, the boss would definitely sweep across the entire arena.
At this moment, many of the guild leaders also felt that they only had a preliminary understanding of the boss's methods. With a decrease of around 5% of its HP, it would immediately retreat and look for a safe zone!
"Keep an eye on the HP of the boss. Once it reaches the intended HP limit, immediately send out a warning to us!!"
For a moment, the high elite players joined the battlefield. Their attack power was much stronger than the normal players. Many of them had a complete set of normal equipment. They were all elite members of their guilds.
"-19."
"-21."
"-29."
...
"Retreat!!"
With the boss's HP reduced by 5%, the observer immediately shouted. Everyone turned around to look for the safe zone behind them.
However, the safe zone respawned at the feet of the boss. Right then, lightning immediately struck down from the sky.
Fortunately, the equipment of these core members were still okay. They barely lost a lot of damage and drank a bottle of Health Potion to recover. Then, they quickly entered the safe zone. However, the equipment of the other players who were not as good died from the lightning strikes.
With this kind of operation, everyone had a hard time whittling down the HP bar of the boss.
...
Not long after, with the hard work of many guild members, the HP of the boss had already been reduced to 50%.
The Demonized Commander roared out loud again. The black aura around its body suddenly soared around it, as if it was brewing something. Whatever it was, it was definitely a powerful skill.
At this moment, the chains on the Demonized Commander's body had also broken. This proved that it could move freely.
[System Notification: The Demonized Commander has sensed the arrival of death, and is activating Invincibility. All attributes have been increased by 50%. Please invite a player to duel with him. If no player fights the boss within 10 minutes, the Demonized Commander's attributes will be increased by 200%!]
Following that, a circle of light appeared in front of the boss. That was the location of the duel.
At this moment, Sun Conqueror pointed at one of the elite members and said, "Go and accept the duel. Your defense is the highest! All magic apprentices, watch closely and follow behind. Get ready to heal him when necessary."
"Understood!"
"-210."
"-230."
However, this level 7 Warrior Apprentice only had 660 HP and a defense of 43 points. Moreover, he was merely a B-grade talent — Endurance — and this talent only reduces all damage by 10%.
Unfortunately, he was instantly killed by seven or eight swords slashes by the boss. There were not enough level 5 Magic Apprentices behind him, so they could not heal him quickly enough. The Magic Apprentices were also killed very quickly.
Sun Conqueror shouted, "What about you guys! Come out! Those with A-grade talents and S-grade damage reduction talents, hurry up and stand out! We'll give you the equipment to wear!"
For a moment, many of the guild members did not hold back anymore. They all sent out their best players, but none of them could withstand such damage. At most, the players could only hold on for about 30 seconds before they died.
As time passed, the boss's aura became more and more powerful. It was just a matter of time before it started to kill people.
Suddenly! A figure quickly rushed towards the boss. In the last few seconds of the boss's rampage, the figure entered the range and immediately welcomed the boss's attack.
"-247."
"-276."
At this moment, Sun Conqueror immediately recognized who it was. Right now, he was probably the only one around who could withstand the boss's attack. Then, he shouted at the people around him, "Hurry up! Everyone, level 5 Magic Apprentices, heal him with your skills!!!"
However, the many Magic Apprentices were stunned when they saw the HP bar of the person attacking the boss.
"What kind of terrifying HP is this? He actually has more than 8,000 HP, and heals more than 80 HP per second. This is even higher than my skill!!!"
"Is this Carefree Dream? No wonder he is so strong. I think he was the one who killed the black-iron boss last time!"
"Strong!!! Do you even need to heal him? He probably thinks that your healing is not as good as his own healing!!"

Chapter 19: Epic-level Commander! Super Explosive!
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Just as everyone was in awe, the Demonized Commander charged and let out an angry roar.
[System Notification: The Demonized Commander has been forced into a duel. The mutation has been canceled. The Invincibility period has disappeared. If the duelist dies, the mutation will be reactivated!]
"Quick! Attack!"
Everyone who was far away immediately rushed towards the boss.
Li Yi did not stay idle. He stared at the attack of the boss. He went up and used the combo of Raging Bloor Roar, Combo, and Heavy Strike.
"-764."
"-79."
"-180! Critical Strike!"
"-314! Critical Strike!"
This ridiculous attack power left everyone dumbfounded. Not only was his HP ridiculously high, but his attack power was more than twice that of any elites here. How did he manage to be so good at this game?
"His attack is over 200. It's a pity that I'm not over 100 yet. The gap is too big!! He can tank and can fight!"
Even though they complained in their hearts, they still attacked the boss.
"-18."
"-50! Critical Hit!"
"-61."
...
Not long after, everyone's HP had rapidly decreased. Everyone saw the dawn of victory and began to fantasize about defeating the boss. They even wondered what type of equipment the boss would drop.
However, the good times did not last long. The boss did not stop. When his HP fell to 40%, he raised his greatsword again and a red halo quickly spread out.
[System Notification: The Demonized Commander has used the skill 'Hell Halo'. All players who enter this area will have their defense reduced by 10%!]
Then, the Demonized Commander put away his sword and stabbed it into the ground. Making himself the center of the halo. A gust of wind blade attacked everyone and it felt as though a sharp knife had stabbed into them.
"Shua!"
"-310."
"-337."
"-377."
"-347."
"..."
The players who had originally looked for a safe zone were now being attacked by these indiscriminate attacks. This instantly killed a large portion of the players that were close to the boss.
Looking at the scene of everyone running away, Li Yi was speechless. When the boss released its skill to catch its breath, Li Yi took this chance to speak to the guild leaders.
"Everyone, listen to my command. If not, the entire party will be wiped out. Even I can't hold on for too long. After all, this boss has too much HP and too much damage!!"
Sun Conqueror immediately raised his hand and said, "I have no objections!! What about you, Old Fox!!"
The middle-aged man who was called Old Fox glared at him and said, "That's all we can do. Let's share the party channel!!"
The guild leaders of the other two guilds could also see that this battle could only be ended if they were unified. Otherwise, it would be impossible to take the boss down. For the sake of future benefits, everyone chose to cooperate.
After Li Yi connected everyone's party channel, he immediately said to everyone.
"All guild members, listen up. Everyone, listen to my command. Whatever I say, do it. Do not resist in any way, or else you will bear the consequences!!!"
The members of the four great guilds were also dumbfounded. After all, letting an outsider lead their own guild, not to mention leading the four great guilds together. This was an unprecedented decision.
However, they had relied on the party of one to survive this battle. If they did not, they would have been wiped out by now. Hence, none of the leaders and members voiced any objections!
"Alright!"
"All high-defense Warrior Apprentices are in the front, high-attack Warrior Apprentices are in the middle, and behind them are Magic Apprentices. Whoever I tell to attack will attack. Don't hesitate and go for it!"
"High-defense team, form a team of five, and push forward!"
Li Yi stood in front of the boss, he took the lead and moved towards the boss. A series of explosive combos had taken almost 1,000 of the boss's HP, this attracted a lot of aggro from the boss!
"Five of you, go and block the legs of the boss. Don't attack the boss, just stand there and block the boss. When the boss attacks you, retreat immediately and switch to another team. Magic Apprentices, all of you must use Fireball to attack the boss!!"
"High attack Warrior Apprentices, await my orders!"
Everyone immediately accepted the command. The five-man defense team immediately formed a line and rushed to the feet of the boss. They actually managed to block the boss in front of them.
The level 5 Magic Apprentices behind them immediately used Fireball to attack as soon as possible.
"-13."
"-9."
"-7."
The Magic Apprentices basically did not have a high magic attack. However, they had a large number of people, and this caused the HP of the boss to rapidly drop.
At this moment, the Demonized Commander was attracted by the Magic Apprentices and wanted to attack the Magic Apprentices. It let out a loud roar signaling that it was enraged.
However, it was blocked by five Warriors Apprentices who stood standing side by side. The boss was so angry that it swung its greatsword at the players who were in the way!
"Retreat and let the Magic Apprentices heal! Switch to another group of defense Warrior Apprentices!"
Li Yi immediately shouted. With one hit, all of the Warriors Apprentices who were healing them were reduced to low HP. This could not happen for a second time!
The second group of warriors also charged forward!!
In a matter of seconds, some of the players were unlucky and they died with one critical hit from the boss!
When the boss HP was reduced to 20%, the boss roared angrily.
Li Yi shouted directly, "Everyone, step back. The defense Warrior Apprentices stand at the front. Remember to take a hit and immediately switch to the next group to take the hit!!"
"Understood!!"
The next moment, countless wind blades blew over and pierced the players. These wind blades attacked indiscriminately. However, once one player got attacked, they would switch out with another player to tank the attack. It was very easy to dodge this move.
This was the famous crowd tactic and boss blocking tactic in Li Yi's previous life. No matter how high-level the boss was, as long as it could not kill the players in one hit, the boss would be wiped out by the crowd tactic!
At this moment, Sun Conqueror was also dumbfounded, and he sighed, "This! This commanding ability, and the ability to understand the boss's skills, it's simply amazing! I will kneel down to him directly if he were to ask."
"The boss can still fight like this? Even I feel bad for the boss. When the boss wants to attack, it can't attack. It just keeps getting blocked by different groups of players. Amazing!"
"Let's not talk about it anymore. I definitely want to record this video. I want to go back and study it properly!!!"
"Even until not, not many people had died, most of them died from bad luck. That strong player has the boss in the palms of their hands. It's simply amazing! He's definitely an epic-tier commander!!!"
...
"The blocking is successful. Magic Apprentices, attack! Warrior Apprentices, attack!!"
The boss's HP dropped rapidly. Even the final boss's desperate counterattack was useless.
Soon enough, when the boss was only left with 1% HP, its entire body started to turn red.
Li Yi immediately shouted, "Everyone, retreat quickly! The boss is about to self-destruct!!"
Everyone managed to barely retreat from the vicinity.
"Boom!!!"
An earth-shattering explosion occurred on the Demonized Commander. The entire ground shook violently as if an earthquake had occurred.
Following the explosion, equipment and skill books scattered out like raindrops.
At this moment, everyone's cooperation had completely disintegrated. They were all heading towards the item that they desired. Some of them directly started fighting.
Li Yi had been looking at the items that had dropped. With a glance, he saw a necklace that glowed with a black light. Only that item looked like the most unique and dazzling existence. It could be said that many people had their eyes on this item.
However, Li Yi did not give in to them. He directly scuttled over and stood on top of the necklace. He pulled out the greatsword in his hand and looked at the people who had come over!
"Hey... There's a piece of godly equipment over there. Hurry up and snatch it!"
"Yeah, I saw it too. Hurry up and snatch the godly equipment!"
The players who ran over immediately turned around knowing that Carefree Dream monopolized on the necklace. The guild leaders had already taken over several pieces of equipment and started fighting other players. The damage dealt by the guild leaders was not comparable to Li Yi.. They decided that it would be better to snatch the equipment from the guild leaders instead.

Chapter 20: Despair HP, Atlantis Acquired
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
[Server Announcement: Novice Village No. 7777 has successfully killed a special boss. Within 12 hours, all players in the village will gain 50% experience and a 10% drop rate. The player with the highest contribution will receive a special level-up reward.]
[Server Announcement: Due to Novie Village no. 7777 successfully killing a special boss, all attributes of the special boss will be reduced by 30%. Special boss's rare rewards have been removed. Village experience, drop rate, and other bonuses have also been removed!]
[Server Announcement: Special items will have a 30-second protection, players will only be able to pick them up after 30 seconds.]
No one paid any attention to the announcements. They only cared about the equipment, skill books, and other items in front of them.
Everyone's eyes were bloodshot as they stared at the players around them. As long as they were not from the same party, they would not hesitate to kill each other.
Especially for the few pieces of shiny equipment. They were at least of excellent grades and many players were not willing to give them up. The battles now were even more intense than when everyone battled the boss together. People were dying on the ground every second.
The two guilds that were close to the shiny equipment, the Undead Guild and Wind Guild, both had their eyes on this item as well.
"Go! Snatch it for me!!"
Wind Guild was not willing to be outdone. They immediately started to snatch the equipment too. Now was the best time to rely on the strength of the guild.
The other guilds and players were the same. Even those who had not participated in the battle against the boss had already joined in to snatch the equipment.
It could be said that every second, ten or so players would go back to the Resurrection Point. However, there were somehow still more people who came to snatch the equipment.
After a chaotic battle, everyone had been quickly divided into six forces. Li Yi and the four major guilds. The largest force was a large number of individual players. However, they did not have the same goal at the moment!
The players from the four major guilds were each forced to guard an important equipment location. No matter how many individual players there were, the guilds could not do anything about it!
The individual players who did not have much of an advantage were all looking towards the center, where Li Yi was. The system announcement had just said that the special rare boss reward had been removed!
That necklace that glowed with a dark light was definitely the special rare boss reward that had been removed.
At this moment, the guild members were also trying their best to resist the attacks of the many individual players. The guild members did not have the energy to snatch Li Yi's item right now.
Moreover, Li Yi had commanded them to kill the boss so quickly. The four guilds would feel shameless if they were to attack him. They did not send anyone to attack and snatch this special reward.
"Brothers, charge! This is definitely a rare reward from the special boss. Once you get it, you can become the greatest player ever!!!"
"That's right! This is a boss that we killed together! Why does he have to monopolize so many items?"
"Charge! Don't be afraid, we have more people on our side, he can't do anything to us! He still has a few pieces of equipment behind him, we can't let him monopolize all of them!"
The group of individual players seemed to have found their target. They could not take down the four major guilds, but maybe they could take him down since they were larger in numbers, right?
A large number of individual players charged forward. Their motives were very obvious. They wanted to snatch these special rewards.
When Sun Conqueror saw this situation, he also roared, "Whoever dares to touch him will become our enemy. In the future, we will definitely settle the scores!!!
"Remember these people. When the time comes, we will definitely avenge Carefree Dream!!"
However, these verbal threats could not stop the many individual players. In an instant, Li Yi was surrounded by countless players.
"-2."
"-1."
"-1."
"..."
However, this round of attacks only took out a small portion of his HP. At this moment, everyone was stunned.
These individual players, who watched from the outside, were only level 4 at most. They had relied on their numbers to sweep through many parties. However, at this moment, they had encountered a tough nut to crack.
Li Yi looked at these players and could not help but snicker. With the support of his SSS-grade talent, his current HP being 8,000 over points, and his defense that had reached 60 points. His contribution points were the highest. After receiving the reward from the special boss, he had directly risen by 1 level, reaching level 7. It could be said that he was now the highest-leveled player on the entire battlefield.
The level suppression in Divine Revelation would still be effective when players fought against players. Under some of the weakening effects, their attacks would only be able to meekly reduce their HP!
When it was Li Yi's turn to counterattack, he did not even need to use any skills.
"-301."
"-612! Critical Hit!"
"-677! Weakness Damage!"
"..."
With a 1.41 attack speed, 260 attack power, and level difference, most players below level 4 all died within Li Yi's attacking range. This was these players only had 300 HP to their names.
"Swish! Swish!"
A large amount of white light appeared in front of Li Yi. A large number of individual players were like wheat in the field, they were being mercilessly harvested. Moreover, Li Yi was still at full HP.
Watching this, the remaining individual players retreated in fear. They stared at the terrifying player in front of them with their mouths agape. In front of them were the corpses of the players that had fallen to the ground. It made their scalps go numb.
"This... The is the Devil from Hell!!!"
"Run! This person's damage is heaven-defying. A sword and a kid. What's the point of snatching these!!!"
"What a pity! There are still a few pieces of equipment behind this person. One look and you can tell that their quality isn't low. All of them have been taken by this guy!!"
All of the individual players immediately scattered. There was no way they could fight this guy anymore. In order to prevent the other guilds from remembering their names, they all ran away!
There was no one within 30 meters of Li Yi. All that was left were the corpses that had been killed!
...
After a while, the protection period of these pieces of equipment was over. Li Yi immediately picked up the equipment.
[Special item: Atlantis Necklace]
[Effect: A level 20 key to a forbidden area. It contains unimaginable danger and wealth.]
"Atlantis?"
Li Yi did not have the memory of this necklace in his mind. However, he was certain that this necklace was the proof of opening a special map.
There were many such items like these in the Divine Revelation world. He was certain that each of them was an item that one could only come across by chance. After successfully clearing the level, one would obtain great benefits.
There were still two pieces of equipment on Li Yi's back that no one dared to pick up. At this moment, he picked them up without hesitation.
[Equipment: Knight Light Armor]
[Rarity: Excellent]
[Physical Defense: 12]
[Excellent Attribute: Strength -3, Stamina 7]
[Equipment Condition: Level 5]
[Equipment: Windstorm Greatsword]
[Rarity: Excellent]
[Physical Attack: 44]
[Excellent Attribute: Strength 7]
[Equipment Condition: Level 5]
"Not bad, but it's useless to me.. If I sell it, it'll be worth a lot of gold coins."

Chapter 21: Player's Progress, Potion Master
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
As soon as they entered the village, many players immediately distanced themselves from Li Yi as if they had seen a ghost. After all, the visual impact of the massacre had left a deep impression on them.
Li Yi swept his gaze across the crowd and discovered that most of the players had already reached level 4. Very few had also reached level 5.
It seemed that the level 5 equipment update mode was about to arrive. Perhaps the two pieces of equipment in his hands could be sold for a high price.
Other than that, there was the need for gold coins. After level 5, learning skills could be said to cost a huge sum of money. Many people simply did not have that many in-game coins.
After all, they did not have such a high HP recovery ability. To level up, they needed to buy a lot of Health Potions to withstand the monsters' attacks. Otherwise, they could only kill small monsters like Black Rats.
Fighting small monsters like the Black Rats also required a large number of players. Many players would probably not even be able to get 2 silver coins in a day!
...
At this moment, the guild leaders and their members had also returned to the village. Everyone beamed with joy. After all, the harvest this time was extremely bountiful. Every guild had good equipment in their accounts, except for Proud Guild, who had to leave early.
"Guild Leader!"
Sun Conqueror led everyone forward and said with a smile. "Carefree Dream, I didn't expect you to be so skilled in commanding while being so strong. I feel like I can give you the position of being a guild leader now!"
Li Yi immediately replied, "It's nothing. I just fought too many bosses and learned a lot from it!"
Li Yi was not lying. He had killed many bosses in his previous life. This kind of special boss only had a lot of HP and a wide attack range. It was not difficult to defeat.
Sun Conqueror was stunned by Li Yi's confident words. However, he quickly recovered and said, "Er... that's true. I can tell that you're a veteran player. I guess you've played many of those 3D online games before!"
"Oh right, I've picked up a few pieces of equipment. Do you have any needs?"
Li Yi immediately took out the two pieces of equipment that he had picked up earlier.
"This... I'm afraid I can't afford it. After all, I've spent a large number of game coins to buy Health Potions and equipment. I've also given the money to the level 5 members to learn their skills. There aren't many gold coins left.
"I don't know, but is it possible if you can keep it for a while? I'll try my best to gather some gold coins. It won't be long!"
At this moment, Sun Conqueror also eyed this greatsword. This time, he had obtained 4 pieces of excellent equipment. Although he had a high-damage scepter, a guild would always need more equipment for their members.
Li Yi was also very familiar with this, so he directly said, "I understand how it is. How about this? It's fine if you don't have any gold coins. I can also accept materials instead of gold coins. A guild should at least have more materials than not, right?"
Sun Conqueror replied in puzzlement, "Materials? You have a friend with a medicinal talent?"
Li Yi directly said, "I guess so. I'll get some from him."
"Alright then. Let's see what materials you need. I have quite a lot of materials in my storage!"
"Quartz Flower, Nuts, and Sun Grass. If you have them, you can come and exchange them with me!" Li Yi requested.
These three were the main materials for Defense Potions. Moreover, the spawn locations of these items were scarce. The other materials Sun Conqueror had were probably common goods. They were very easy to find. Moreover, the prices of the common goods were not worth the purchase.
"Do you have these?" Sun Conqueror turned around and asked his guild members.
"Yes. It's just that the demand for these items are not high. Our people did not gather them in large quantities. We don't have many Quartz Flowers. There are around 1,000 stalks, over 4,000 Nuts, and over 4,000 Sun Grass!"
The guild member immediately replied. There was currently no demand for these things in the market. After all, the blueprints for the Defense Potion had not been dropped yet.
One stalk was at most 3 to 5 copper coins. The sum of all of them was far from enough to cover the price of this valuable sword.
Sun Conqueror said with difficulty, "Do you think these are enough? We only have so much at the moment. Do you want to use cash to replace the rest cost?"
Li Yi did not care about this and said directly, "That's fine. This weapon isn't too important to me anyway. Let's trade."
"That's great. Wait for me to get someone to send it over. I'll transfer 50,000 US dollars to you first!"
Sun Conqueror transferred the money and then immediately got someone to send the materials over.
The eyes of the person behind Sun Conqueror lit up at this moment and secretly whispered to the guild leader.
"Guild leader, since a big shot like Carefree Dream is collecting these materials, even if they are useless now, there will definitely be a time when we will need these materials in the future, and the price will definitely skyrocket.
"Why don't we send people to collect them now? When the time comes, we will definitely be able to earn quite a bit. Otherwise, I can't figure out why he wants these materials!"
Sun Conqueror thought that this was indeed the case. After all, an item that even a big shot had to collect would definitely be very valuable. Moreover, the other party's time was very precious, so there was no need to waste it on collecting items like these.
Sun Conqueror nodded to himself. Then, he released a mission in the guild channel, "Collect Quartz Flower, Nuts, and Sun Grass as much as possible. Reduce the number of people who collect the other materials by half."
Not long after, Sun Conqueror was very glad that he had made a decision this time. The harvest this time was absolutely massive.
...
Very soon, the Scorching Sun guild members sent the materials over. After they directly traded, the few of them parted ways. After all, now that they had the experience bonus, it was better to quickly level themselves up.
Li Yi, on the other hand, came to the market hall. It was full of players who were setting up stalls. They were also looking for materials for Defense Potions.
Li Yi suddenly saw a relatively skinny man sitting in the distance. He was setting up a stall and selling Quartz Flowers. This person looked like he was about to fall asleep.
Li Yi walked over and took a look. This person's ID was Little Merchant. This ID was very familiar.
Li Yi had a quick recollection. This guy was an extremely famous potion master in his previous life. His talent was to make potions. It was said that he had a 30% success rate. It was truly terrifying.
This person's character was not bad, and he valued his principles very much. As long as the agreement was alright, he would stick to it 100%.
In his previous life, he remembered that someone had helped the Little Merchant, and the Little Merchant had agreed to give the person 10% of the money he earned in the future. Little Merchant really gave him 10% of the money he earned every time. Moreover, he calculated his own accounts, and every penny earned was not bad.
Li Yi immediately went forward and said, "It's a trade! Don't sleep anymore!"
The small businessman immediately woke up and looked over. "Huh? What do you want to buy?"
Li Yi said, "Hmm, I want all of these Quartz Flowers!"
"5 copper coins per stalk! A total of 1,700 stalks!"
"Okay!"
Li Yi directly made a trade with him.
That person was also beaming with joy. Who knew that he would not need to haggle over the price. This thing had been placed in his store for so long, and no one had come to ask for a price. His personal expectation was that it would be sold for 3 copper coins.
"Okay! Thank you for your patronage!! Add me as a friend, and I will sell more things to you in the future!!"
After both parties added each other as friends, Li Yi did not say anything. Instead, he sent the blueprint of the Defense Potion over to Little Merchant.
Little Merchant opened his friend's message in confusion. What message was he sending from such a close distance?
However, when he opened it, his eyes widened. His eyes were filled with the shape of gold coins, and the essence of a merchant was undoubtedly revealed.
"My friend, how much is this? I'll buy it!!!"
"It's not for sale! I want to make an agreement with you. Once this thing is made, excluding the cost of the medicinal ingredients, I want to take 80% of it!"
"No way! It's too much, we'll split it 55%!!"
"Forget it then!"
Li Yi immediately turned around and wanted to leave. The merchant gritted his teeth and quietly whispered to Li Yi, "At most, you'll get a ratio of 6 and I'll get 4. I'm an S-grade talent when it comes to making medicine. The success rate of making medicine will increase by 30%. This isn't something that can be measured with gold coins."
Following that, the merchant sent an introduction of his talent over. Li Yi also knew that this was the most he could do, so he directly threw the blueprint to him. "Alright, you study this potion first, and tell me when it's done!"
With that, he left behind a dumbfounded small merchant. This person actually threw it over so generously? Was this a verbal agreement?
Little Merchant took a deep breath and decided in his heart to fulfill the agreement.. This was the first person who had believed in him so much.

Chapter 22: Willy's Gathering Place, HP Exceeding 10,000
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Li Yi was not worried that this person would go back on his word. After all, Little Merchant had always attached great importance to agreements. Li Yi believed that he would not do anything that would go against the agreement even now.
Moreover, this Defense Potion was only considered extremely precious because everyone did not have many skills in the early stages of the game. In the future, there would still be many valuable items. It was impossible for Little Merchant to build their own reputation just like that.
There were many ways to earn money with an S-grade talent. There was no need to do things like that!
Li Yi came to the warehouse and stored the important necklace and a large number of materials. He then bought a bunch of Mana Potions and headed towards the second-in-charge — Willy. Now that he had the experience bonus, leveling up would definitely be much easier.
As soon as he arrived at the entrance of the Novice Village, Snow Chaser stood in his path. She knew she was only a weak level 4 player, so she felt bad about what had happened during the battle. So, she apologetically spoke to Li Yi, "Carefree Dream, I'm sorry, I wanted to help you during the battle. Unfortunately, there were too many players, and when I tried to fight back I got killed. The next thing I knew, I got sent back to the revival point."
Li Yi tried to recall what had happened just now. He seemed to have focused all his attention on the boss and the necklace. So, he did not pay too much attention to his surroundings or where Snow Chaser was. When he picked up the equipment, Snow Chaser had already disappeared.
He himself did not think too much about it and replied to her, "It was too chaotic just now, don't worry about it. I just happen to be going to a place to level up. Let's go together while the experience is doubled!"
"Okay!"
...
Half an hour later, Li Yi and Snow Chaser were now far away from the Novice Village. They had reached a place that was extremely barren and desolate. The wind around them seemed to have a rotten smell that lingered around. This was the kind of place that had barren mountains and rivers.
It was hard to imagine someone living here. However, this was the location marked out for his mission, the location of the second-in-charge — Willy.
As they continued walking forward, they encountered a large gathering place. There were many Bandits who wandered outside of the gathering place.
Each Bandit had an extremely tall and sturdy figure. They wore soft armor and held large sabers in their hands. Their ugly and fierce appearances would definitely be the nightmares of many children!
He quickly looked at the Bandit's attributes.
[Level 7 Bandit Martial Artist (normal)]
[HP: 1,000]
[Physical Attack: 140]
[Physical Defense: 50]
Snow Chaser said, "This monster has such a high attack and HP. This is expected of a martial artist."
Li Yi did not hesitate and quickly drew his sword, he used Combo and Heavy Strike. He swiftly struck the Bandit Martial Artist's neck.
"-140."
"-370! Weak Point Damage!"
"-602! Weak Point Damage!"
"Ugh..."
The Bandit Martial Artist did not even have the strength to fight back. He directly fell to the ground. This super high attack power amazed Snow Chaser.
Snow Chaser opened her mouth wide and exclaimed, "Good gosh, Carefree Dream, your damage attack has increased by so much! If we were to battle, you'd definitely kill me with one strike!"
Snow Chaser then raised the staff in her hand and threw a Fireball at the head of another Bandit Martial Artist.
"-271."
Snow Chaser's damage was also pretty good. She should have around 130 magic attack from the scepter she retrieved from Li Yi. Monsters' defenses at the early stages could easily be ignored. Once these monsters get hit, a lot of HP would be lost from their low defenses.
Snow Chaser had been leveling up with him for a period of time. She had learned a lot of dodging skills from him. She had skillfully dodged the Bandit Martial Artist's attack and threw another Fireball at the Bandit as a counterattack.
"-284."
Snow Chaser said happily, "This scepter is really good. It's really different compared to other powerful weapons."
Li Yi directly rushed forward and used two slashes to finish off the Bandit. The next step was easy. Li Yi was in the frontlines while Snow Chaser fired a Fireball at the backlines to attract the other Bandits' attacks. Li Yi also followed up with a few basic sword slashes, and he quickly killed the Level 7 Bandit Warrior.
Soon, the Bandit Martial Artists outside the gathering place were cleared. The experience gained was definitely of a huge amount. After the grinding, Snow Chaser had leveled up to level 5.
The two of them then walked into the gathering place. Li Yi saw a stone platform in the distance with a treasure chest on it. It looked like it could be the second-in-charge boss's treasure chest, but there were too many monsters around. There were all kinds of monsters who guarded this gathering place.
Snow Chaser saw something behind her and quickly spoke, "Be careful!" A Bandit beside Li Yi had swung its heavy sword down on him. However, Snow Chaser was the one that got hit by the attack as she tried to protect Li Yi.
"-309! Critical Hit!"
"-15! Counter Damage!"
The attack power was very powerful. Were Snow Chaser to receive more than two hits, she would have definitely died on the spot.
Li Yi quickly checked this Bandit's attributes.
[Level 7 Bandit Warrior (Elite)]
[HP: 2,600]
[Physical Attack: 200]
[Physical Defense: 80]
...
Snow Chaser used a Fireball spell when she had 10% left of her HP.
Li Yi did not hesitate, he quickly drew his sword. He then used Combo and Critical Hit as his special attacks.
"-126."
"-317! Weak point Damage!"
"-544! Critical Hit!"
Taking advantage of the moment when the elite Bandit Warrior was about to counterattack, Li Yi immediately used Raging Blood War!
"-907."
After the elite Bandit Warrior got stunned, he immediately followed up with two sword strikes. Snow Chaser also went forward and released another Fireball attack. Finally, the elite Bandit Warrior fell to the ground.
[Talent Trigger: Obtained 26 HP, 0.26 HP Recovery/second]
Just as Snow Chaser was about to pick up the copper coins dropped by the elite Bandit Warrior, an extremely fast shadow rushed over her. The shadowed figure flashed by with a dagger. Its weapon directly slashed at Snow Chaser.
Swoosh!
A large number appeared above Snow Chaser's head.
"-277."
The Magic Apprentice, Snow Chaser, had a physique that could not withstand the blow at all and flew to the ground. Fortunately, the attack did not hit a vital point. Otherwise, she would have definitely been killed in one hit.
Snow Chaser quickly retreated and took out a Health Potion to drink. Then, she casted a healing spell on herself for additional health points.
"101"
Li Yi finally saw the type of monster that had ambushed them and checked its attributes.
[Level 7 Bandit Assassin (elite)]
[HP: 1,500]
[Physical Attack: 270]
[Physical Defense: 35]
Assassin-type monsters had a high attack power and an extremely weak defense. They were the type of monsters that would ambush players instead of encountering them head-on. It was a nightmare for the weak and brittle Magic Apprentices such as Snow Chaser.
The Bandit Assassin wanted to fall back when its first attack failed. Snow Chaser directly threw a Fireball at it. Li Yi also followed up with a Combo attack.
The defense of the monster was so low that it caused the Bandit assassin to instantly perish from the flames of the Fireball attack.
Snow Chaser patted herself on the back. She felt pride that she defeated a monster, but at the same time, trembled from the ambush. She spoke to Li Yi with fear laced in her words, "The monsters in this place are so intelligent. They wanted to run away after just one hit!"
Li Yi smiled and said, "There will be more intelligent monsters in the future. They can even predict your movements and prioritize killing your types first so you won't heal your other high damage players. Moreover, you'll encounter magician bosses that can heal themselves too when attacked! You should stay close to me, I can guard you against things like these."
"Alright then!"
...
Only Bandits that were of elite level and Bandit Assassins could pose some threat in this gathering place. However, as long as they were careful, not much problem would be caused. As for the other Bandit Martial Artists, they were quickly cleared out.
A few hours later, Li Yi looked at the monster corpses on the ground. There was still quite a long way to go before they both could reach another level. The higher the level, the harder it was to level up. Snow Chaser was about to reach level 6, and she was overjoyed from the thought of it.
Li Yi observed the area around him. All the monsters had been cleared out, now was the perfect time to trigger the boss fight.
He looked at his own HP. At that moment, it had reached a shocking 12,732 points. Moreover, his HP recovery speed had also reached 121 points per second.
His HP had already exceeded 10,000 points. The boss Wilke would definitely have something to say about Li Yi's power!
You're just a player, yet your HP is almost similar to my level. Do I, a big boss, not care about my reputation?

Snow Chaser impatiently walked to the treasure chest and looked towards Li Yi.
"Can I open it? I have really good luck!"
Li Yi waved his hand, signaling for her to open it.
[System Notification: Treasure chest opening, 30 seconds countdown.]
[System Notification: Treasure chest opening, 29 seconds countdown.]

After the countdown ended, the treasure chest shook in its place and a few items dropped.

[Effect: Creates a magic shield to block damage. Resists damage with maximum MP. Consumes 3 MP per second. Skill Cooldown: 60 seconds!]
[Maximum level: Level 10!]
[Item: Double Potion's Blessing (permanent item)]
[Effect: When you carry it in your backpack. There would be a higher chance of obtaining double the amount of potions every time you make a potion!]
"Hehe! Look, my luck is very good. This magic shield is mine, right? The other two are yours!!"
Li Yi was also shocked. Her luck was immensely powerful, it was as though she had used golden hands to touch the chest. This was because the other two items that dropped were definitely priceless.
"Thanks!!"
Li Yi immediately put on the wrist guard. His speed had increased by a lot. The most important thing was the item Double Potion's Blessing. It was definitely something that could not be bought with thousands of gold coins.
In the game world, as long as the word 'permanent' was mentioned in an item, it was priceless. In his previous life, he had only seen a few permanent items like those that were sold by others.
He did not expect to see a permanent item in the early stages of the game. It was definitely a fortune that was brought from the heavens. Snow Chaser's luck was amazing.
As soon as he put the item into his backpack, he immediately saw someone walking towards him from afar. His black hair danced wildly in the wind. He had a golden longsword and a purple cloak that swayed like the ocean waves, and there was only killing intent in his eyes. He looked at the two people in front of him as if they were filthy ants.
[Boss: Level 8 second-in-charge of Bandits — Willy]
[Rarity: Black-iron]
[HP: 13,000]
[Physical Attack: 350]
[Physical Defense: 110]
[Magic Defense: 100]
[Boss Skill: ???]
[Black-iron Skill: ???]
...
This boss only had a little bit more HP than him. However, the boss's recovery speed was definitely not as fast as his. At this moment, there was no need for him to move around too much. He just needed to finish the boss as quickly as possible.
After looking at the attributes of the boss, Snow Chaser widened her eyes and said in shock, "Got thing I picked up the magic shield. Otherwise, I probably wouldn't be able to withstand a single blow from the boss and would've been instantly killed!"
Li Yi said, "Let's go! Once you open the treasure chest, you can't escape anymore. You must accept the boss fight. Otherwise, the rewards will be taken back by the system!"
Snow Chaser frowned from the information and said, "There's such a thing? This magic shield is too important for me not to use. I don't want it to be taken back."
The boss noticed the two of them and immediately let out a loud roar. His eyes turned blood red as he dashed towards the pair.
"Swish!"
The sword in the boss's hand shined with bright light. Clearly, the quality of this weapon was very high, it could even be comparable to Li Yi's weapon. However, Li Yi was not too sure if the boss would drop this high-quality weapon.
"Be careful!" Snow Chaser shouted.
Li Yi did not retreat at all. He raised his greatsword and clashed his weapon with the boss. With a metallic sound, Li Yi was forced a few steps back by the boss's sword. Then, the boss struck his lower abdomen.
"-645! Weak Point Damage!"
"-32! Counter Damage!"
When players fought with bosses like these, it was a high chance that they would lose. This would include if there was a party that fought the boss too. The boss's attack was not as simple as being forced back by a few steps.
"As expected, his strength is surprisingly great. If I were to compare myself to him, his strength might be lagging just by a little bit! However, I'm not someone to be trifled with!" After Li Yi spoke, he readied his stance for an attack.
"Raging Blood Roar!"
"-1577."
Li Yi's blood flowed through his body and it boosted his body. Gaining this energy, he used this attack to instantly stun the boss on the spot. He went up and aimed at the boss's weak point — his fragile neck — and used a series of skills. He used Combo first, and then Heavy Strike.
"211! Weak Point Damage!"
"522! Weak Point Damage, Critical Strike!"
"450! Weak Point Damage"
A series of skills flurried down and directly took away a large amount of the boss's HP. The heavily injured boss got out of the stun and let out an angry roar.
"Concentrated Blood Strike!"
The boss's right arm suddenly expanded as blood flowed greatly to it, boosting the power of the arm. This caused the blade of the sword to tremble from its deathly grip. Then, a huge bright blood-red sword ferociously swung towards Li Yi.
Li Yi looked at the blood-red sword in front of him, but he did not dodge the attack. This skill probably could not deal much damage to him.
He knew a little about the effect of the boss's skill. This was a skill used by the high-defense warriors in his previous life to lure monsters. However, this skill effect could be extremely useful to him. It would be great if it dropped as a skill book so that he could learn it!
"-301!"
"-15! Counter Damage!"
The skill's damage was not that great, if it was an ordinary person, no matter who it was, they would have been instantly killed unless they used an invincible skill!
While the boss used his skill, Li Yi raised his double-edged steel sword and swung a few times at the opponent's neck.
"-311! Weak Point Damage!"
"-342! Weak Point Damage!"
...
In just a few strikes, the player and the boss clashed head-on in front of Snow Chaser. Neither of them was afraid of the other!
...
Snow Chaser was stunned by the unfolding event. She even suspected that this was a boss-to-boss battle. Having a one-on-one battle with a boss, was it something that a player could do?
If you attack me once, I shall return the favor by threefold!
It should be known that when normal players fought a boss, they would be in a state of near-death. They would have to carefully avoid the boss's skills. If they were not careful, they would be wiped out.
At this moment, Snow Chaser's understanding of the game had completely collapsed. Using Fireball as an attack now would just be deemed useless. The boss did not even have the time to bother with her.
Suddenly, feelings of being ignored harbored in Snow Chaser's heart. This was practically the home ground of the two bosses, and she was just spectating this fight!!
...
Time passed bit by bit, and everything went very smoothly. However, the HP of the second-in-charge was far from the health of the other party. Very soon, the boss was left with a small amount of HP.
At this moment, the boss's prestige was no longer there. No matter how strong the boss was, the boss could not withstand such a fight. His entire body was covered in blood. On the other hand, Li Yi was getting more and more excited as he fought!
Right when the boss was left with 20% HP, the boss quickly jumped back a few times. Then, the boss suddenly raised the blood-red sword in his hand up high. An obscure incantation reverberated in the surrounding area as if there was some important skill that he wanted to use.
"Hehe! You've played enough, it's time for you to go," Li Yi said with excitement in his tone.
Raging Blood Roar, Combo, and Heavy Strike was carried out in a series of attacks and the remaining HP of the boss dropped to a zero. Then, the boss dropped to his knees and fell to the ground.
Defeated.
Chapter 24: Concentrated Blood Strike, Defensive Potion Successfully Made
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
The second-in-charge of the Bandits, Willy, let out a mournful howl as he slowly fell to the ground. Once that happened, only then did Snow Chaser recover from her shock. She looked at the almost boss-like player in front of her with a strange expression as he picked up the equipment.
The drop rate this time was not bad, but it was a pity that the blood-red sword in the boss's hand did not drop. However, what dropped was a skill book, a pair of boots, and a mission item.
Li Yi first looked at the skill book.
[Item: Concentrated Blood Strike (skill book)]
[Usage Requirement: Warrior Apprentice]
[Effect: Lock on skill. Creatures with lower HP than the user would not be able to dodge it, causing differential damage in HP. If HP is higher than the user's, the user would be unable to lock on to the target. This causes damage equal to 1% of the user's attack power! No mana consumption, cooldown time would be 30 Seconds!]
"This? It actually dropped!!"
Li Yi looked at the skill book in his hand in surprise. The difference in HP was definitely a great weapon for him. This skill was very compatible with his SSS-grade talent — Blood Devour.
In reality, when the fight happened, the boss could not deal much damage to him because the difference in HP between him and the boss was very small. The boss only had a few hundred more HP than him. If it was anyone else, they would have definitely been killed in one hit.
Now, it was Li Yi's turn to learn the skill, normal players would definitely not be able to withstand this skill of his. Moreover, it was a lock-on skill. Once learned, there was no way for him to retreat from this skill. In hindsight, this skill could be his trump card in the future!
Li Yi immediately learned the skill happily. Then, he looked at another piece of equipment.
[Equipment: Light Twin Boots]
[Quality: Excellent]
[Movement Speed: 1.7 Meters/second]
[Excellent Attribute: Agility 9]
[Equipment Condition: Level 5]
It was not bad, this pair of boots was not bad at all! It increases the user's movement speed by a lot. In the future, they would have much less time to travel.
Finally, there was the mission item. It was similar to the description of the crystal plate that he obtained yesterday, except that this one was red in color.
After that, he kept all these into his backpack and walked up to Snow Chaser.
"You've seen the items that dropped just now. There's nothing that you need. Otherwise, I would've given it to you!"
Snow Chaser shook her head and replied.
"Well... I didn't help with this boss either. Even if there was something that I needed, I would have used my money to buy it. Otherwise, I definitely won't want it. I'm happy I obtained a magic shield just now.
"I'll never let go of this magic shield no matter how many others offer their high prices to me!"
Li Yi nodded and said, "Alright then! I should go back now. Let's go together!"
"Agreed! Today's dropped loot has been satisfying. As expected of the number one party in the village! I still have to go back and replenish a bunch of Mana Potions. This new weapon of mine is simply too useful!!"
Snow Chaser also happily ran outside.
…
Not long after, Li Yi and Snow Chaser had arrived at the village. Snow Chaser seemed to have received some news, and her expression immediately became a little ugly. She immediately said, "Carefree Dream, I have some urgent matters in the real world. Let's train again tomorrow!"
"Got it! You go ahead."
Li Yi waved his hand and did not mind. Although he could see that it was definitely something bad, this was someone else's private matter. He decided that there was no need to inquire about it!
Snow Chaser immediately went offline. It seemed that she was very anxious.
Li Yi also wanted to hand in his mission at this moment. Suddenly, he saw his friend list flash a few times. He immediately opened it to check and saw the message sent by Little Merchant.
[LM: Carefree Dream, I've produced the potion. However, there are three ingredients that are very difficult to obtain. I have searched for a long time and only managed to obtain a little!]
Looking at this news, Li Yi immediately became spirited. Little Merchant's speed in creating potions was really fast. To be able to create it so quickly, he was indeed worthy of being a famous potion master in his previous life.
[CD: Come to the warehouse and look for me. I have something here for you too. You'll definitely be interested!!]
[LM: Don't tell me you have the materials? I'll come over immediately!!]
Li Yi then walked towards the warehouse in the village. From afar, he saw Little Merchant waiting there. This fellow was still at level 2. As expected, the merchant did not care about his level at all.
At this moment, Little Merchant saw Li Yi in his sights. He immediately looked around carefully and spoke softly.
"Increase level by x15 of experience points within an hour, as well as 10% physical and magic defense. The properties of this potion are simply explosive. How much do you think we should sell it for?"
"Now's not the time to sell it. Everyone doesn't have many gold coins right with them. You just have to work hard to make this potion now. Patience would be a virtue when it comes to potions like these!"
Little Merchant immediately agreed and then asked another question.
"Oh right, what do you want to give me? Why did you need me to come over?"
Li Yi took out all the medicinal ingredients and threw them to the merchant.
"Damn, how do you know the ingredients for the Defense Potion? Especially the three most important ones? How about this, you can't be at a disadvantage. How much can the medicine be sold for this time? You'll take 70%, and I'll take 30%!"
"Oh! Really? Then what about this thing, what are you going to exchange for it?" Li Yi immediately took out the item he had just obtained while he replied.
The merchant looked at the small item in front of him with puzzlement. He had never seen this thing before. How much could it be worth?
However, when he looked at the attributes of this item, his eyeballs almost popped out. His breathing became rapid and he hurriedly reached out his hand to take a look.
At this moment, Li Yi immediately put it back and looked at Little Merchant indifferently!
[Item: Double Potion's Blessing (permanent item)]
[Effect: When you carry it in your backpack. There would be a higher chance of obtaining double the amount of potions every time you make a potion!]
"This is... such an awesome item, where did you get it? I... I don't think I can afford it!!!" Little Merchant ran around in circles. He scratched his ears and cheeks as he thought about how to afford it. After a long time, Little Merchant seemed to have made up his mind and said seriously.
"Give me this thing, and I'll give you 10% of the money I earn from refining potions in the future... No, I'll give you 15%, how about it?!"
"Go and look it up on the official website. It's a permanent item, and it just happens to be a suitable item for you. You probably won't be able to see a second item like this in your lifetime, you understand?"
When Little Merchant heard this, he stomped his foot and took a deep breath before saying in a very serious tone, "From now on, I will give you 30% of the money I earn. I can even sign a contract with you, and I never go back on my word!"
"Deal!"
Divine Revelation indeed had a contract system. As long as both parties agreed on something, they had to stick to it. Otherwise, the system would forcefully take back the item or game currency.
Li Yi then signed a contract with Little Merchant and handed the permanent item to him.
The merchant hugged it in his arms and took a deep sniff. Then, he quickly stored the item in his warehouse. He took it out, admired it. Then, he stored it again. It seemed like he would not feel at ease no matter where he put it.
"Alright, you decide on what to do with it. I should go!"
Li Yi did not care about him, and left the scene. He was a very busy man!

Chapter 25: Crazed Hoarding of Goods, Demonic Domain
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Right when Li Yi had walked far away. Only then did the merchant come back to his senses and hurriedly shouted for him.
"Carefree Dream, wait a moment, I... I have something to discuss with you. This is very important!!"
Little Merchant ran in front of him and rubbed his hands together. It was as if he had something to discuss, but he was too embarrassed to open his mouth. His somewhat shy appearance was simply unbearable.
A man in his thirties was acting bashful here. When the surrounding players saw him, they shook their heads repeatedly and kept a distance from him with disgusting expressions on their faces.
Li Yi took a few steps back. Then, he frowned and asked, "What's wrong? Do you regret the contract? If you don't want to make a deal, then tear up the contract and return the items to me!"
"Regret? Even if you beat me to death now, I won't regret it! I... I just spent all my gold coins. Can I use some of yours first? Even five gold coins would be enough." Little Merchant timidly spoke. In his perspective, he had taken a huge advantage of Carefree Dream. Now, he was even reaching out to ask for gold coins. This was definitely a shameful act.
However, at this moment, he was really short of money. He had only obtained this S-grade pharmaceutical talent for more than a day before he finally understood how to use this thing. Now, he did not even have the start-up funds to begin his business.
Li Yi glanced at his backpack and said, "I can give you seven gold coins. You'll have to think of other ways yourself!!"
"That's more or less enough! Now that everyone's levels have risen, the Health and Mana Potions are selling very well. Now that I have gold coins to make the Health and Mana Potions. I should increase the profits!
"Moreover, I have doubled the number of potions as compared to last time. In the aspect of pharmaceuticals, I reckon that no one can compare to me. When that time comes, I'll definitely become rich."
Little Merchant said with a smug expression. He really deserved a beating.
"Don't be too cocky when you do things. Keep a low profile. Don't make it so that you won't be able to come online in the future. That would be bad!!"
Li Yi saw the smug expression on this fellow's face, but he still spoke up to remind him. After all, money was a thing that made people go crazy over it!!
In his previous life, there was someone who was an extremely profitable sub-class. A woman found out his real name and address and then kidnapped him. His life and death had been controlled by this psycho.
"Don't worry! The people outside will never know where I live. The appearance and voice of my character in the game is all different, you will never know!!
"If you want to get the address from me, even if it's you, I won't tell you. Alright, I'm leaving, it's time to earn some money!" Little Merchant waved his hand and walked away.
Indeed, no one knew this guy's address in Li Yi's previous life. Even if the God's invaded the real world, Little Merchant still survived until the end. It was unnecessary to worry about such things for him.
...
Right as Li Yi was about to leave, he saw his friend list ring.
[Carefree Dream, I don't know if you're busy now. There's something I need help with and I specifically need your help with it. This should be something only you can do. I can pay you the reward, it'll be anything you want!] It was a message sent by Sun Conqueror.
From the way the Scorching Sun Guild killed the special boss just now, they currently had the most benefits. In this Novice Village, they could be said to be number one in terms of strength. They could even defeat some low-level black-iron bosses.
This was a little suspicious. Was there anything that they could not do in this tiny Novice Village?
[Tell me what it is first. Is there anything that you guys can't do in the Novice Village?] Li Yi immediately asked.
[Carefree Dream. I'm ashamed to say this, but our guild members discovered a map. The monsters inside have attack powers that are too high. Even our strongest player can't handle the monsters inside. Otherwise, we wouldn't have troubled you like this]
Sun Conqueror quickly replied.
The guild members could not handle the monsters. The monsters had at least 400 attack power. If the monsters in the Novice Village really had such high attack power, then there was only one reason.
It was a reason that Li Yi was not willing to think about at this moment. After all, his current strength was still very weak. It was impossible for him to fight against these things. Perhaps something unexpected had happened in this life?
These things had appeared so early. He did not know if it had anything to do with his SSS-grade talent, Blood Devour!
If that was really the case, then the situation would be a little bad. This matter could turn big or small. It might even allow Divine Revelation to wake up those sleeping gods in advance.
He knew he was not ready, Li Yi immediately asked.
[Where is this map? Tell me clearly about the situation and the monsters in it, don't miss out on a single thing.]
Without a hint of doubt, Sun Conqueror felt that something was not right from the other end. However, he could not think of anything going wrong, so he still immediately sent out a few pictures of what he saw.
[That map is not filled with elite monsters. The game's website did not introduce them either. The names of the monsters all have the word 'Demonized' in the suffix! Just like the Demonized Commander from last time, it's very strange!] Sun Conqueror typed.
The information was accompanied by some pictures for Li Yi to refer to. Looking from the inside, the environment was a little dim. It seemed to be a cave that went straight to the depths of a deeper underground cave.
There was a faint black aura around the cave. It was similar to that of the Demonized Commander who was killed last time. However, the aura of this place was even denser, it was super pitch-black, like ink!
After looking at the pictures, Li Yi did not feel so lucky anymore. 'So it's really that thing. I'm very familiar with it, so I can't be wrong.' He thought to himself as he replied Sun Conqueror.
[Give me the coordinates, I'll be there right away!!] Li Yi wrote.
[Okay, the coordinates are (, *) we'll wait for you here] Sun Conqueror quickly replied.
Li Yi hastily opened the map and found the coordinates. Then, he immediately headed in that direction.
The place that they had encountered was the demonized land. It was one of the places within the Divine Revelation game that had been infected by traces of dark aura.
Under normal circumstances, the attributes of the monsters in the demonized land would be greatly enhanced. Their HP and attack would be doubled. There were also some places where there were extremely dangerous items, tools, or sealed creatures.
When the Gods in the previous life had gradually descended, the players who had been defending the place were not immediately defeated. It was all because of this place that the gods had spent most of their energy. This place was known as the Demonic Domain.
However, this Demonic Domain appeared a little too early. It would only appear sporadically in the middle of the game at the very least.
Moreover, there was no news about who discovered the Demonic Domain in the Novice Village in his previous life.
It seemed that his rebirth had a butterfly effect in this game world. It had pushed up the original plot by a lot!
However, wasn't this more interesting? To experience it all over again without changing anything, anyone would be a little tired of it, right?

Chapter 26: Demonized Monster, Shattered Hero
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Half an hour later, Li Yi had arrived at the location given by Sun Conqueror. On his way here, there were many trees that grew sporadically everywhere. However, the further he walked, the further he saw that this place was filled with dead trees and dilapidated plants. This scene was extremely strange.
The whistling sound of the breeze could be heard in his surroundings. One could faintly hear the shrill screams from within if they concentrated hard enough. The shrills were just like the howls of ghosts.
At this moment, there were over a hundred players that stood in the distance. Each of them was level 5 and above, and they had pieces of equipment that were relatively complete to their sets. It seemed that they were all the elites and core members of the Scorching Sun Guild.
From afar, he could tell that the group of elite players looked somewhat dejected. They had probably tried many times, but they still could not defeat the monsters inside. However, this was very normal.
After a while, Sun Conqueror saw someone coming from afar and immediately shouted.
"Carefree Dream, over here!"
Li Yi directly asked, "Hey! When you first came here, nothing strange happened, right?"
A guild member immediately replied to him. "I was the first to discover this place. When I came here, it was extremely gloomy and terrifying as if a demon was about to come into play. The ground shook, and I thought that there was going to be a boss appearing. After searching around, we found this cave. However, none of our members were able to withstand the monsters inside, so the guild leader had no choice but to come seek for your help!"
Sun Conqueror also continued, "Yes, that's about it. When I came here, I was equally as shocked. I didn't think that there would be such a strange place in this game world!"
Li Yi nodded and said directly, "Alright! It's still within the controllable range. Let's go in and take a look!"
"Alright! Everyone, set off. Don't fall behind. Follow closely!"
...
The group walked straight ahead and soon arrived at the location of the cave. Gusts of chilly wind blew out from within. This caused many members to feel a little creeped out by the surroundings.
Li Yi did not pay too much attention to it. He had experienced these feelings one too many times in the past and felt that it should not matter now.
As they continued to walk forward, the breeze became stronger and stronger. It even carried traces of a black aura. However, everyone else had never seen such a thing like this before, so it was very difficult to detect the faint black aura around them.
Even if Li Yi could see traces of it, he was still a little relieved. It seemed that not much had been leaked yet, and it was still within the controllable range.
...
As everyone went deeper into the cave, the temperature had slowly plummeted. They felt that they had already reached the freezing point. At this moment, many people could not help but shiver.
"Roar!!"
A deep roar was heard from the cave. The ground in front of them suddenly rumbled and exploded. A pitch-black arm bone broke out of the ground. Then, skeleton soldiers that were covered in tattered clothes jumped out from the ground, dropping debris of rock as it tried to get out.
Each of them held a rusty iron sword in its hand, there was a wisp of gloomy black flames in their empty eye sockets, and these beings stared fiercely at the group of players who had just barged in.
Li Yi quickly checked their attributes.
[Level 7 Skeletal Soldier (demonized creature)]
[HP: 5,000]
[Physical Attack: 400]
[Physical Defense: 50]
[Skills: Heavy Strike, Horizontal Sweep]
The attributes of these monsters were indeed strong. Although their defense was relatively low, their attack power was as high as 400. Moreover, they also had skills that could be used in battle, just like Li Yi. It was no wonder that their main tanks could not withstand it.
Li Yi took the lead and charged forward. The Skeletal Soldier's actions were also very fast. The rusty iron sword in their hand slashed forward fiercely. The first strike was a skill — Heavy Strike.
It was a battle between the strong. Li Yi did not back down and took the heavy blow head-on!
"Peng!"
When the double-edged steel sword collided with the rusty iron sword, the Skeletal Soldier got chopped into pieces by Li Yi's better sword. It turned into pieces and fell to the ground. The Skeletal Soldier's attack power decreased by 150!
Li Yi's attack also landed on the Skeletal Soldier's body.
"-502! Critical Hit!"
Li Yi's attack shattered the Skeletal Soldier's rusty iron sword. It also took away one-tenth of the enemy's HP. The damage was extremely high. The members of Scorching Sun were also dumbfounded.
"This... This greatsword should be of a flawless grade, isn't it? Otherwise, it wouldn't be able to shatter the enemy's rusty iron sword that easily, right?"
"There's even a way to shatter the enemy's weapon?"
At this moment, Sun Conqueror regained his senses and immediately shouted, "What are you waiting for? Magic Apprentice group number 2, quickly attack from behind. Main Tanker group number 1, guard the surroundings. High-attack Warrior Apprentices group number 3, assist in the attack."
Fortunately, Sun Conqueror had brought three groups of people with him. One group of Main Tankers, one group of high-attack Warrior Apprentices, and one group of Magic Apprentices.
Among them, they had the highest number of Magic Apprentices. These people accounted for at least half of the group, while the number of high-attack Warrior Apprentices were much lesser. There were only three elites among the elites, and all of them were wearing one or two pieces of excellent equipment!
After all, if high-attack Warrior Apprentices did not have good equipment, they would not be able to withstand the monsters' attacks at all. They would be on the brink of death if they were to be attacked with a skill. The only way these players could survive was if they relied on the Main Tankers to tank the damage from the monsters.
After hearing the guild leader's command, everyone carried out their attack. The Magic Apprentices threw Fireballs at them one after another and supported their members.
"-70! Critical Hit!"
"-29."
"-33."
...
This kind of undead monster was more afraid of magic. Having so many Magic Apprentices focusing their fire on them, they immediately lost over 1,700 HP. The sea of people tactic was pretty good.
Without any weapons, the skeleton soldier was ready to fight with its claws. However, its attacks were not enough, and they only lost a small amount of HP.
"-180."
The Skeletal Soldier was like a tiger without teeth and claws. It had lost its wild nature. To Li Yi, it was of no threat at all.
After a few rounds of Fireball attacks from the Magic Apprentices, the Skeletal Soldiers were immediately broken into pieces and fell to the ground.
[Talent Trigger: Obtained 50 HP, 0.5 HP Recovery/second]
At this moment, the members of the guild were extremely content with this attack. They were not worried at all.
"This is awesome!! There are no worries at all. I think that Carefree Dream's HP is still in full health. He is simply too strong."
"That's right! I don't even need to heal myself. I just need to wait for the skill's cooldown to be over. I can just attack directly!"
...
The rest of the matter was much easier to handle. Li Yi cleared the way ahead. The Skeletal Soldiers they encountered along the way could not hold on for long before they died under the siege of the player's attacks.
The experience points gained here were also extremely high. Most of the guild members had already leveled up to level 6. At this moment, Li Yi was also about to reach level 8.
As everyone continued to advance forward, Li Yi suddenly saw a shimmering item in the distance. He immediately picked it up and took a look.
[Item: Broken Equipment]
[Effect: It has lost the power it should have. It has no use at all. It could be seen as a souvenir!]
However, Li Yi recognized this item at first glance. It was a piece of warrior-level equipment. It was a piece of equipment that had been shattered by a powerful force after fighting a certain creature.
Warrior-level equipment was extremely rare and difficult to obtain. However, as long as one obtained it, they would receive a warrior-level buff. This increase in strength was not the same as the increase in the stats on the interface as compared to other weapons.
Having warrior-level equipment could allow one's chosen class stats to increase, or even be doubled. It could be said that when a player's weapon reaches a warrior-level, its stats would also increase greatly.
There was no comparison between Heaven and Earth. As long as one obtained a warrior's equipment or above, the increase in one's strength would be unprecedented.
Even among the massive number of players in the past life, very few people could obtain a warrior's equipment. Even so, every single person who had the warrior-level equipment were all famous players in the game.
"Carefree Dream, do you know what this is?"
Sun Conqueror pointed at the shard and asked. At this moment, Sun Conqueror had also found a shard of equipment that was shimmering.
"I'm not sure, but if this item is useless, then just throw it away!"
As soon as Li Yi finished speaking, the surrounding ground trembled again. The players that stood far away from the walls could not even stand properly. A large amount of rubble also fell from above the cave, indicating that the cave was about to collapse.
Sun Conqueror frowned. They were already deep into the cave. Were the cave to collapse, they definitely would not be able to escape. Losing levels were a small matter, but losing equipment could not be seen as such.
These pieces of equipment were the majority of their guild's assets! They could not die here and lose these valuable items!

After the cave shook for a long time, the surroundings began to settle down. Thankfully, from the looks of it, the possibility of the cave collapsing was not that high.
Many of the guild members looked at their guild leader, and they waited for his next instruction.
Sun Conqueror looked ahead and clenched his fist in silence. Then, he finally spoke, "Continue moving forward. We've already reached this point. If we don't go deeper and get more benefits, what's the point? Plus, Carefree Dream will continue moving forward. What are we afraid of now that he's here?"
Li Yi did not care about the trembling ground. Instead, he walked straight ahead. He had to figure out what was going on here.
Soon, he saw countless Skeletal Soldiers in the distance. They almost filled up the entire cave, it was an uncountable mass.
"You guys attack from the back. I will lure these monsters away!"
After Li Yi said that, he charged forward. These Skeletal Soldiers were densely packed. No matter how much he lured them away, there would be at least five skeleton soldiers that attacked him. The greeting gift he received from them was the attack Heavy Strike.
"-501."
"-511."
"-25! Counter Damage!"
"-25! Counter Damage"
...
Every Skeletal Soldier had started their attack with Heavy Strike. With that, Li Yi's HP instantly dropped by more than 2,000 points. However, from the looks of it, his HP bar had only dropped by 10%.
After passing through the large number of Skeletal Soldiers in front, Li Yi's HP had also reached 23,403 points. His recovery ability was an astonishing thing to witness!
"Raging Blood Roar!"
Li Yi looked at the five monsters around him and let out an angry roar. The blood in his body surged around his body. In an instant, the attack stunned the five monsters around him and it caused a large amount of damage.
"-2,201."
"-2,197."
"-2,310."
...
Following that, a small combo of skills directly hit the Skeletal Soldier in front of him. This caused the Skeletal Soldier to fall from the attack.
"This!! What kind of damage is this? The total amount of damage that we deal won't even surpass one of his skills!"
"He can take damage and fight. What kind of talent did he obtain? Could it be an extremely rare SS-grade talent?"
"I think it must be. The highest grade talent announced by Divine Revelation is SS-grade. I think only SS-grade talent can match bosses of this level!!!"
"His HP is as high as 20,000 points and more. This is definitely something that only SS-grade talents can achieve. It's hard to imagine who would be able to fight him!"
"I'm super envious. I only have a support-type talent that can increase my critical strike by 10% and explosive damage by 20%!"
"You're not that bad. I, on the other hand, can only increase my movement speed. However, my escape ability is definitely top-notch!"
...
At this moment, the guild members were avidly discussing among themselves with envious expressions.
Looking at the scene unfold before him, Sun Conqueror made up his mind to recruit Carefree Dream at all costs. Even if he were to offer all the benefits to him, he must get Carefree Dream to agree to it!
At this moment, Carefree Dream's actions could practically become a guild by himself. This was a top-notch skill in Divine Revelation, and only very few people could do it.
Sun Conqueror regained his senses and immediately commanded at the shocked crowd, "What are you all standing around for? Quickly attack! Attack the monsters with the lowest HP! Let's quickly push forward!"
At this moment, everyone had stopped gossiping and immediately began to attack.
...
Under Li Yi's guide, everyone felt invincible. There were practically no monsters that could last a few rounds.
Even if eight or nine Skeletal Soldiers surrounded them, Li Yi could easily deal with these skeleton soldiers. This was because they were not very fast. With his powerful movement speed and dodging ability, each monster was swiftly killed.
Not long after! The team found that the interior slowly began to brighten up. On the surrounding walls, there were a large number of burning oil lamps. The lamps flickered violently even though there was no wind. It was a really strange sight to behold.
Looking at the scene in, Li Yi said to the people behind him, "Be careful. It seems that this is the location of the boss. I'm unsure as to where the boss may come out from."
They continued to walk forward!
"Pa!"
Li Yi kicked an item under his feet. He turned his head and saw a broken skeleton. The skeleton's fibula was broken from his kick.
However, the equipment on this skeleton could be seen clearly. These were definitely warrior-level equipment. However, they were an incomplete set. Moreover, it had completely lost its value in strength.
There was a large hole in this skeleton's chest. It seemed that it had been killed in one hit. For someone with such strength to be killed in one hit, one could imagine how powerful the enemy was.
As they continued deeper into the cave, they had arrived at an extremely spacious plot of land. Based on their initial estimates, it could hold at least a hundred thousand people.
The moment they entered this part of the cave, a huge torch lit up above their heads, and it illuminated the entire cave.
At the innermost side of the cave, there was an extremely tall and unadorned pitch-black door. It was at least fifty meters tall, and there were extremely strange patterns that were carved on it. From a glance, it was enough to dazzle one's eyes.
At this moment, the pitch-black door had opened up and it showed an extremely tiny crack!
In front of the door, there was an altar made of an unknown type of black stone. The countless corpses on the altar were all wearing warrior-level and above equipment. It looked as though they were all trying to get close to the altar.
That was because, in the middle of the altar, there was a pitch-black greatsword, and countless demonic aura was being emitted from it.
The pitch-black greatsword itself emitted an extremely dense destructive aura. The black demonic aura soared around the weapon. It was as if a demon had descended from the sword. The power it exuded was extremely intoxicating, and it enticed the players to want to grasp this ungodly weapon in their hands!
However, this weapon did not seem to be that easy to control. Many people that wore warrior-level equipment had died here, so one could imagine how dangerous this pitch-black greatsword was.
Suddenly, the pitch-black greatsword emitted a large amount of demonic aura. In an instant, it had formed a massive black cloud in the sky. Countless terrifying, angry, and sorrowful howls could be heard coming from it.
Through the transformation of the black cloud, an insurmountable amount of black demonic aura slowly poured from the black gate. It seemed that the opening of the gate was related to this black cloud!
However, the invisible suffocating pressure emitted by the pitch-black greatsword made countless guild members not dare to take another step forward!
Li Yi directly walked forward and checked the attributes of the sword.
[Item: Magic Weapon — Death's Descent]
[Introduction: The long-sealed magic weapon has slowly awakened. It does not bring glory and power to humans, but the descent of death!!!]
A magic weapon had appeared here. It was no wonder that there were demonized monsters here. Moreover, it had also attracted the entrance to the magical realm.
When the magic weapon and the entrance to the magical realm attracted each other, the entrance to the magical realm would slowly open. Were this incident to be discovered too late, the creatures behind the entrance would definitely come out. With their current strengths, the guild members would definitely not be able to contend against these creatures.
The magic weapon itself was also extremely dangerous. It was a piece of equipment that could even contend against divine equipment. However, players could not possess such equipment because it would constantly absorb the vitality of the players.
In the early stages of the game, players had brought along hundreds of high-tier healers every day and took turns to heal whoever wielded this weapon. These players could only hold on for a while, but if they were not careful, they would die.
Moreover, the longer one carried this item, the more life force this item would absorb. Even if they kept it in their backpacks, it would still absorb their life force. Not only that, they would not be able to store it in the warehouse!
Right as everyone was hesitating if they should bring this item back into the warehouse, the black clouds in the sky suddenly parted, and a figure jumped down from it.
This person was clad in black iron armor, and his broad blood-red cape fluttered wildly in the wind, his helmet only showed his eyes that shined with a dazzling blue light.
He was holding a huge sword in his hand!
The boss had appeared!!
Chapter 28: Demonized General, Ultimate Pull
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Li Yi immediately went forward to check the attributes.
[Boss: Demonized General]
[Rarity: Special]
[HP: 100,000]
[Physical Attack: 600]
[Magic Attack: 400]
[Physical Defense: 150]
[Magic Defense: 100]
[Boss Skill: ???]
[Special Skill: ???]
...
The attributes of the boss were simply too high. It had a high attack, high defense, and high HP. If they were to fight this boss, the chances of surviving would be low!
At this moment, Li Yi retreated back and said, "This boss has the same strategy as the last time we fought a boss together. I shall go and tank the main damage from the boss. Those who can only withstand more than one hit from the boss will go and block the position of the boss."
Everyone looked at each other. There were only five players who had higher attribute points. They were A-grade talents, and they were also related to defense or stamina in terms of the skills they had. However, they were barely able to withstand one attack. If they were to receive a critical hit, they would definitely die. Knowing this, the players hesitated to get into formation.
"Enough! Remember, I'll be in charge now. Get into formation right now. We must kill this boss as soon as possible!"
This boss was the bridge between the magic equipment and the gate of the magical realm. They must not die, or there would definitely be a big problem afterward!
Li Yi then arranged the players strategically and led the charge. When the Demonized General saw that someone was charging towards him, he immediately brandished the sharp sword in his hand. He looked down on the living beings as though he was the God of Death. He growled, "Lowly humans, your blood will become the stepping stone for the descent of the creatures from the magical realm!"
The eyes of the Demonized General instantly shot out a cold light, and this caused everyone to shiver uncontrollably. He suddenly raised the sharp sword in his hand, and with a piercing sound, the sword slashed down on Li Yi's body.
"-1,570! Critical Hit!"
This damage caused everyone's hearts to drop. Even their strongest Main Tanker would probably be insta-killed with a single strike.
Li Yi did not hesitate at all and directly slashed the boss as a counterattack and dealt a critical hit.
"-140! Critical Hit!"
"-90!"
"-150!"
"Hehe!!"
The Demonized General let out a cold laugh. He did not think that there would be a worthy ant that could have withstood his attack. The next strike from the boss had been instantly unleashed. Li Yi was prepared for the attack and immediately lured the boss further away from the rest of the players.
"Magic Apprentices, attack!!"
"-4!"
"-8! Critical Hit!"
"-2!"
...
This round of attack only took about 400 HP from the boss. It was like scooping the ocean with a spoon, it was never-ending! Fireball had a cooldown rate, and there were not many long-range attackers at the moment!
"Annoying little bug, go to Hell!"
The Demonized General turned around and headed towards the group of Magic Apprentices.
Li Yi immediately shouted, "Stop him!!"
When Li Yi gave the order, the strongest Main Tanker in the guild suppressed his fear and directly blocked himself in front of the boss. This stopped the boss in his tracks. Then, the boss roared angrily from this stunt.
"Measly ants, how dare you block my path? Die!"
He directly raised the sharp sword in his hand. The black aura on the sharp sword condensed, and a stream of black shadow suddenly hacked into the Main Tank, causing damage.
"-711!"
This person's HP instantly bottomed out. He was only 13 HP away from dying. This was all thanks to his damage reduction talent. Otherwise, he would have definitely died!
A boss of this level already had some basic intelligence. It did not give the player any chance to escape. The next attack would definitely land on him as he only had 13 HP left.
The Magic Apprentices immediately began to heal the low-health player.
"50!"
"50!"
"..."
The healing skills of the early Magic Apprentices could not instantly heal others to full health. Instead, they could only recover 50 HP peruse and had a 10 seconds cooldown rate. Moreover, they could not stack their HP.
As for the instant healing skill, it was something that only some high-level bosses would drop. Only with this skill book could one be considered a qualified Healing Mage.
"-3013!"
Just as the player was about to die, the boss let out an angry roar from behind. A sudden attack appeared and interrupted the boss's advancement to the player. Thus, saving the player's life.
The player was so scared that he had turned pale. He immediately casted a grateful look towards the assailant and quickly retreated!
At this moment, Li Yi also took advantage of this situation when the boss was stunned and immediately launched an attack from behind.
"-101!"
"-110!"
...
The boss had recovered from being stunned and seemed to have been insulted. It immediately roared and charged towards the ant that was attacking it. At this moment, Li Yi had already bolted far away from the attack range of the boss. This was because he was waiting for the rest of his skills to cooldown.
However, no matter how amazing his speed and skills in dodging were, he could not make up for the difference in the boss's quality. It was a situation where he would definitely take damage.
"-799!"
"-40! Counter Damage!
"-1,677! Critical Hit!
"-81! Counter Damage!"
...
With such a terrifying damage attack, even Li Yi found it difficult to withstand the blows that came his way. Right now, the boss was enraged as he had failed to kill the tiny ant in front of him, several times now. He raised the sharp sword in his hand, and the black clouds in the sky immediately moved above him. The black clouds began to condense thicker around his surroundings.
Li Yi knew that this situation was not right. When the boss raised the weapon in his hand, he immediately commanded everyone to flee the scene.
What followed after was countless black bolts of lightning that struck down from the black clouds. However, there was still one person who did not manage to dodge the attack, and he was instantly killed by the terrifying attack.
"-844."
When Li Yi saw this situation, his heart dropped. Currently, there were not many pieces of equipment that could increase his defense from a magic attack. Even if all of the Warrior Apprentices were to increase their defenses against magic attacks, they would still be as fragile as a piece of paper.
Moreover, this boss would not be easily killed in an instant. The damage dealt by the other guild members was also extremely low. No matter how good Li Yi's command was, it would be impossible to defeat this boss in less than a day or two if they were to follow the same strategy.
Moreover, there was a mandatory limit on the game time in the early stages of the game whereby players had to log off after a set period of time to avoid fatigue in real life. If there was a chance that all of the players right now became offline during the mandatory time limit, everything would be for naught!
"Carefree Dream, what should we do now?"
Sun Conqueror did not want to retreat just yet. As long as Li Yi had a plan, even if he had to risk everything in the guild, he would not hesitate to follow whatever path Li Yi created. Recruiting an expert like him would make up for the losses he might have.
Li Yi pointed at the sword and commanded, "I will go and pull out that sword. With this sword, I will definitely be able to kill the boss!"
Then, Li Yi rushed towards the direction and quickly came to the side of the magic weapon. He grabbed the magic weapon and pulled it up.
[System Notification: When pulling out the magic weapon, it shall follow you forever. Do you still wish to pull it out?]
"Yes!"
[System Notification: Please wait for a moment. The magic weapon will be equipped in 60 seconds!]
In the next moment, the surrounding black demonic aura surged crazily towards the magic weapon, sucking all the dark aura around it. Meanwhile, the door behind him trembled a few times. It seemed like the gap in the door was about to close.
However, seeing this, the boss's eyes had turned red. He let out an earth-shattering roar. "Ant!! I want every single one of you to die!!!"
Then, he took large strides towards the altar that Li Yi stood upon! Sun Conqueror quickly shouted, "Quick!! Someone, go and block the boss's advancements. Whoever that's willing to fight back and were to die, I shall give 1,000 USD as compensation for each death!!"
The guild members were not afraid once they heard the enticing offer. They all immediately charged forward.
"Let's do it! It's just a drop in level. Anyways, we've obtained a lot of equipment along the way. We'll definitely not lose out on anything!!"
"Yeah, let me cause a scene to help all of you!" A Magic Apprentice shouted. He mimicked the movements of the previous Main Tanker. This caused the boss to get distracted by the little ant in front of him. With that, he roared in anger, "Ant, get lost!"
The sword slashed down.
"-798."
The Magic Apprentice had died!
"It's my turn!"
"-1870! Critical Hit!"
The Warrior Apprentice had died!
"It's my turn..."
Player after player, each of them sacrificed their lives to buy some time for Li Yi.

Chapter 29: The Might of a Magic Weapon, The King's Attention
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Li Yi held the magic weapon in his hand and he felt his HP slowly decrease. However, it was still within a controllable range as his HP was simultaneously recovering from it too.
Knowing this, he turned to see the guild members who had fought together drop like flies in front of him. Li Yi could not help but recall the feeling of powerlessness when he faced the Protoss in his previous life.
Li Yi's eyes became bloodshot. He glared at the boss in front of him viciously and thought in his head, 'As long as I have the magic weapon, you will die today!!!'
[System Notification: The magic weapon has been successfully bound to you. Please be careful of the backlash from the magic weapon!]
[Equipment: Deaths Descent (first stage)]
[Quality: Magic Weapon]
[Physical Attack: 400]
[Magic Attack: 300]
[Magic Weapon Enhancement Attributes: All attributes 30, Critical Strike 20%]
[Magic Weapon Special Enhancement: Physical Attack, Magic Attack, True Damage, and Skill Damage increase by 20%]
[Equipment Condition: Exclusive to Carefree Dream]
[Magic Weapon Curse: Reduces 300 HP per second (permanently unbreakable)]
He quickly equipped this weapon, and he immediately felt a strong suction force that directly took away his HP.
However, at this moment, his attributes immediately skyrocketed. His attack had been raised to 660 points, which was more than three times his original attack. Moreover, he did not even take into account the damage bonuses that came with this weapon.
Li Yi held the magic weapon in his hand and immediately headed towards the direction of the boss. Looking at the scene in front of him, the members of the Scorching Sun Guild were almost losing out on their battle. Each of them could only hold on for one second. In just 60 seconds, 60 players had lost their lives. This boss had used their lives to pay for Li Yi's action!
"Raging Blood Roar!"
Li Yi's blood surged all over his body. Originally, his blood was red in color, but now it had been dyed black and it provided greater power to him. His attack directly hit the body of the Demonized General.
"-7,623! Critical Hit!"
"-944! Critical Hit!"
"-609!"
A series of slashes after using Raging Blood Roar, combined with his Combo attacks directly hit the body of the boss. His attack forced the boss to retreat from the other players.
Li Yi then raised the magic weapon in his hand up high. The magic weapon immediately burst out a beam of bright black light and it hit the neck of the boss really hard. Such a level of armor could not have withstood the attack of the magic weapon at all.
"Heavy Strike!"
"-2,520! Critical Hit, Weak Point Damage!"
The terrifying waves of damage from Li Yi directly took a large amount of the boss's HP away. The attack caused the boss to become dizzy and stunned on the spot. The boss was so shocked by the attack, he was unable to get his bearings.
This was another characteristic of Divine Revelation. By continuously receiving high-intensity attacks, there was a certain chance that the players or the boss would enter a dizzy state.
"F*ck! Take revenge for the deaths of our members!!"
The remaining 40 Magic Apprentices crazily threw all the skills they had towards the boss.
"-7!"
"-4!"
"-6!"
...
"Stop attacking. I have to torture him to death today, just watch carefully!"
Right now, the improvements in his attacks have skyrocketed. He now had the ability to kill this boss alone. Were the other players to attack, it would just disrupt his rhythm of killing this boss.
After saying that, Li Yi took advantage of the time when the boss was stunned and continued to attack his weak points.
"-1,090! Weak Point Damage!"
"-1,550! Weak Point Damage, Critical Hit!"
"-1,096! Weak Point Damage!"
It was good that the critical hit rate was high. When the weak point damage and the critical hit were stacked together, it would deal three times the damage. This magic equipment was ridiculously strong!
When the Demonized General recovered from the stun, he was in no hurry to counterattack. Instead, he said coldly, "Human, put the magic weapon back into the altar! You can't take this magic tool! It will only bring endless danger to you humans!!!"
Li Yi said disdainfully, "It's not up to you whether I can take it or not, this is because you will die soon enough!"
The Demonized General coldly smiled and charged over with his sharp sword. The black aura on the sword surged and a huge black shadow slashed over each other.
The ground was filled with debris and rubble from the cave. Li Yi suddenly moved and swung his body and sword in a circle, making him the center of his defensive counterattack. This caused the powerful attack from the boss to miss him.
Li Yi's speed had greatly increased from the momentum, and he could already suppress this boss with one hand. The magic weapon — Death's Descent, accompanied by an eerie black aura, suddenly swung towards the neck of the boss.
"Swoosh..."
The magic weapon waved in the air and let out a piercing sound as if a vengeful spirit had roared in anger!
"-1,016! Critical Hit!"
"-570."
"-599."
The Demonized General also swung his sword towards Li Yi. Fortunately, Li Yi quickly dodged the attack and it only managed to hit his shoulder.
"-470!"
"-23! Counterattack!"
The Demonized General was indeed a general. After one successful attack, the next attack was instantly launched towards the head. He was sure that the Demonized General was more powerful than this when he was alive.
Li Yi quickly lowered his head to dodge. At the same time, the boss drew a round arc with his sword and attacked Li Yi's waist instead!
"-577!"
After receiving this attack, Li Yi thought that the boss was about to release a wide-ranged skill out of anger, so all Li Yi could do was retreat from the attack. However, the Demonized General's accent changed at this moment as he exclaimed in admiration.
"You're not bad. Why don't you join our demon race? What do you say?!!!"
Li Yi laughed coldly, "I want your head!!"
After saying that, he raised his sword and charged over. The Demonized General did not care about this at all. He raised the sharp sword in his hand and started to fight again.
...
A player and a demonized boss were fighting to their deaths in front of dozens of people. No one else dared to attack with their skills, it was as though this opponent was too high. Using their skills now would only show the boss how weak the rest actually were.
Soon enough, the Demonized General could not take it anymore. Even at the end of his life, he still spoke with a calm voice, "You're not that bad. I believe that you will change your mind in the future!"
Li Yi did not hesitate at all. He stepped forward and killed the boss with one last strike from his sword. The moment the boss fell, several pieces of equipment dropped.
It was also right about the time when everyone cheered and jumped for joy. Then, a ray of light suddenly appeared on the helmet of the fallen boss. Immediately after, an invisible wave appeared in the entire cave.
The pitch-black door behind them began to tremble as if it was about to shut. Simultaneously, the altar began to break with cracks that formed around it. Then, it shattered with a loud bang. However, the black gravel on the altar slowly turned into dust, and the dust slowly rose into the air.
Finally, it condensed into a single scarlet eye that hung high up in the sky like a blood moon.
The black demonic aura around the eye raged, and it exuded a suffocating sense of oppression. Everyone only had one feeling, and that was that if they moved, they would die. No one could save them.
Looking at the eye, Li Yi instantly recognized it. He was definitely the ruler of the demon region!
Demon Lord — Louis!
He had seen this demon lord once and knew very well how powerful the demon lord was. Although he had not seen his appearance, he would never forget these pair of menacing eyes for the rest of his life!
If anyone were to make a move, they definitely would not have the slightest chance of resisting the demon lord's attack. They would die in an instant, and there might even be bad consequences that might come after.
However, this eye only took a glance at Li Yi and the demon weapon in his hand. Then, it turned into billowing demonic Qi.. The moment the gates of the demon region were about to close, the demon lord went back into the demon region.

Chapter 30: Flawless Equipment, Horizontal Sword Slash
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
When the eye completely disappeared, there was not much demonic aura left in the surroundings.
Everyone immediately came back to their senses. However, they still looked at the pitch-black door in front of them in horror. They felt as if they had just walked through the gates of Hell. Were they not to be careful just now, they could have died immediately!
"I'm scared to death. The world of Divine Revelation feels so real. I almost got scared to death just looking at an eye. Could it be a super boss in the future? Can we defeat it?"
"How can we not defeat it? When the time comes, we will each have a piece of god-tier equipment. Let's see what the big eye that scared everyone will drop!"
"Anyhow, this weapon that Carefree Dream picked up is really powerful. Even 100 of our elite members could not defeat it. Yet, the aid of this weapon had single-handedly defeated this boss by itself!"
At this moment, Li Yi went to the fallen boss and looked at the items that dropped.

...
The boss had also dropped two fine-grade weapons and one fine-grade armor. All of them were at level 10.
Everyone stared at the equipment in front of them with their eyes wide open. However, no one made a move, none of them dared to come forward and claim a share of the loot. The guild leader and the guild members all had very good characters.
This was expected of a guild that had become extremely popular for its greatness in the future. Li Yi was not a stingy person to such a guild. After all, this time, he relied on their lives to stop the boss from advancing forward when Li Yi took the magic weapon.
Without their resistance, were he to be attacked by the boss, coupled with the continuous loss of HP from the magic weapon, he would have definitely died.
"Wow, flawless equipment! This time, it actually dropped three pieces! This shiny appearance almost blinded my eyes!!!"
"Tsk tsk! If this kind of difficult boss did not drop flawless equipment, it would not have been worth the strength that they had!"
"I really want that flawless dark wand. Even if I have to wear it for a day, I'll be satisfied!!"
...
The remaining members discussed animatedly, their eyes filled with envy.
Li Yi took all the equipment and walked over to the members. He threw the fine-grade pieces of equipment and skills to their guild leader.
"Guild leader, you've sacrificed a lot of people this time. I've taken the equipment that I needed. The rest of the equipment and skills should be yours. Without you and your guild members, I wouldn't have been able to defeat the boss!
"From now on, we're allies. If you have anything to say, let me know. If I can help, I'll definitely help you!"
Sun Conqueror looked at the equipment in his hands, especially the flawless-tier magic wand. He swallowed hard, feeling a little incredulous.
After all, his guild members all died one after another. He felt that he could no longer defeat the boss. He was already prepared to wipe out the entire team. However, at this moment, the tables had turned.
The other party had pulled out that strange magic weapon and directly killed the boss. It was a little hard to accept the other party's gift knowing all this.
Sun Conqueror took a deep breath and said, "Carefree Dream, we only lost some levels. It's easy to level up. We didn't help kill this boss at all!
"How about this, don't you need more materials? My people have been collecting many types of materials. When the time comes, I'll give it all to you in one go!"
For the Scorching Sun Guild, this was definitely a great harvest, especially the flawless magic wand and the area of effect mage skill that it possessed. As long as one of their members reached level 10, they would definitely be able to raise their own strength by much more.
Only 61 of them had lost their levels. Since they had also leveled up when they came here to kill the monsters, they did not suffer that many losses. They felt a little guilty about the benefits that Li Yi was willing to give to them.
"That's fine! If you have that material, give it to a player called Little Merchant in the Novice Village. He and I are friends!"
Sun Conqueror immediately memorized this ID and said, "If he's your friend, then he shall be ours too. We'll definitely send these things to him one by one!"
At this moment, one of the guild members could not help but ask Li Yi in a low voice as he looked at the huge sword that had a strange appearance and a black aura that flowed all over his body.
"Carefree boss, may I know what attributes that strange sword has? You just received this sword and your attack damage has exploded to the point of no end!!"
"Hehe! Then I will show it to you guys!!"
Li Yi was also extremely happy as he held the magic weapon in his hands. When he saw the anticipation in everyone's eyes, he immediately sent out the attributes.
However, the terrifying attributes of this magic weapon directly shocked everyone to the core, and it shattered everyone's worldview.
"Oh my, this attribute, I feel like I would?ascend to the heavens on the spot with just a slash from this weapon!!!"
"However, this kind of weapon can only be used by big shots, right? Every second, you'll lose 300 HP. If I hold this weapon for more than two seconds, I'll die! Even if I consume a Health Potion, I won't be able to withstand this negative effect of the sword!"
"I don't know why, but I feel like even if it's a piece of flawless equipment, it's still not that good! Any fine-tier weapon would be good enough in our hands. Could it be that I'm just weak?"
"You're not weak, because that's what I think too!!!"
...
Li Yi smiled faintly at this. Even he himself was shocked when he looked at the weapon's attributes. It was just that he was pressed for time and did not have the chance to take a closer look.
This weapon was definitely the most powerful among the current players' weapons. Moreover, it could not be unbounded. It was likely that only future god-tier weapons could compare to it!
"Alright then, I'll bid you all farewell. I still have some matters to attend to!"
After saying that, Li Yi directly walked out. He took a glance at the faintly discernible pitch-black door and said, "It's best not to tell anyone about the matters here."
"Don't worry! This is the basic principle!"
At this moment, the guild members waved their hands in unison to bid him farewell.
They all walked out of the cave safely!
Li Yi immediately kept the magic weapon in his bag. Although it would still absorb his own HP, he had to keep it from others' sight.
The NPCs in the village, and even the NPCs of the entire world, were extremely sensitive to these kinds of magic tools. If you owned these things, they would definitely not let you into the village.. In fact, they might even harbor hostility towards you.

Chapter 31: Final Mission: Instantly Kill a Level 5 Boss
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
When he arrived at the entrance of the village, he ran into the members of the Proud Guild. Li Yi looked at them in confusion. To be more precise, he was confused because he saw that one of the players had a greatsword on his back.
The way that person walked and the way that person acted reminded Li Yi of someone. However, the memory slipped his mind and he could not recall it back.
Li Yi did not think too much about it and walked straight into the village. It was better for him to hurry up and complete the level 5 dungeon so that he could activate the God of War inheritance trial later on.
Li Yi walked towards Scarkey's house and knocked on the door. This time, Scarkey came out very quickly. At this moment, Scarkey looked to be very energetic. He no longer looked like he was in a deep slumber like before. He smiled and spoke, "Powerful adventurer, your strength has grown immensely!"
Li Yi took out an item and handed it to Scarkey. He said, "I have brought back what you need."
Scarkey looked at the crystal plate carefully, nodded, and then said, "Very good! Then there is only one thing left. To go to the place that has been occupied by a group of bandits recently. I suggest you find a few teammates to go with you. Continental adventure companions are the most important!"
Li Yi immediately replied, "I understand!"
[System Notification: Mission has been updated!]
[Mission Content: Head to the mission location and bring back the items that the bandit leader, Wiles, has occupied! (seventh ring)]
[Mission Rewards: Unknown!]
When Li Yi walked out, he could finally recall the person he saw in front of the village. The figure that the person had was very similar to someone he knew from the past.
In the past, as a demigod player, Li Yi obviously did not fight alone. He also had his own small team of players. That familiar person back then was one of the very few people who were important to him.
When he walked to the village entrance, Li Yi took a look at the direction of his mission and saw that the Proud Guild members were also going in the same direction. He decided to go over and find out if it was the same person he had met in his past life.
He did not have much hope. After all, the possibility of encountering him in the early stages was very small!
...
After walking for more than ten minutes, he saw a group of individual players that walked towards Li Yi. This group of individual players were all relatively strong. There were several players who were level 5, and their pieces of equipment were not to be laughed at.
However, at this moment, they cursed non-stop as they looked to be in a very unhappy mood. This was because the boss they tried to defeat had been stolen!
Li Yi saw them angrily discussing something and directly blocked their way.
"What? You... You're Carefree Dream?? Boss, don't you know what's going on?"
The player who got blocked by him was about to raise his head and curse. Who knew that it was actually the celebrity from Novice Village. He forcefully swallowed down his words.
"Oh, can I ask you where the members of the Proud Guild are going? I'm looking for them!"
The eyes of the players who were confused lit up at this moment. It was definitely not a good thing for Carefree Dream to seek for the Proud Guild. After all, the two of them had fought before. Knowing this, one of the players immediately replied.
"These shameless guys actually snatched the boss that we fought with great difficulty, we fought it until half of its HP and they raided us and stole our kill. They're going to the valley in that direction."
"Nice! Thank you very much. I'll go and take a look!" Li Yi nodded and directly walked over there.
However, at this moment, the group of players had followed suit. After all, the individual players of this village were ruled over by the members of Proud Guild. They tagged along because they were curious as to what might go down again.
Very soon, Li Yi arrived at the destination. The monsters here were not very strong, it was just the level 5 porcupine's territory. If there was a boss here, the current players could still defeat it.
After entering the valley, he immediately heard players fighting monsters coming from within. Close to twenty players currently surrounded a porcupine boss with a sturdy build. At this moment, the porcupine's HP was one-tenth of its original health.
Li Yi immediately recognized the warrior in the frontline. It was definitely a person he knew from his previous life as his ID was Clutch King!
When he was over level 100, he had encountered a wild boss the same time Clutch King did. In order to claim ownership of this boss, the two of them had directly engaged in a Player Kill. A Player Kill, or a Player versus Player battle, meant that when the player that had the higher set of skills wins, the loser would have to give way to the winner. In this case, Clutch King lost his rights in claiming ownership of the boss and gave it to Li Yi.
Clutch King had come to look for him a few times after that to have a rematch, but he kept losing to Li Yi. Even if they have never met in real life, they slowly became best friends online. This was because each time they fought, they would exchange helpful pointers to improve each other's skills.
It was just a pity that Divine Revelation had invaded reality. Even more so was that Clutch King had died in a battle to protect a group of civilians.
Even now, Li Yi could still remember the words he had left for him before he died, "Li Yi, in my next life, I will definitely defeat you; I want to be your big brother!"
Now that Li Yi had returned to this life, it was difficult for him to hide his excitement when he saw Clutch King again. Li Yi quickly walked in that direction. He was immediately noticed by the surrounding people who stood guard and these guards notified the others.
Soon, a group of people surrounded him. Li Yi was in a good mood at the moment and could not be bothered to argue. He did not care about his surroundings and walked straight in.
One of the guards shouted, "Carefree Dream, you're so high-leveled. Yet, you still want to snatch our boss?"
"Hmph! How did you even gain ownership of this boss? Would you like me to remind you? Get lost, I don't want to kill you!"
He took out a magic weapon from his backpack, Death's Descent. This magic weapon looked as tall as a man. A black demonic aura surrounded the sword, making Li Yi look as terrifying as a Devil.
He walked straight in, and none of the guards dared to go forward, this helped Li Yi to walk in so casually.
"Concentrated Blood Strike!"
Li Yi's right arm suddenly expanded, and blood rushed to his right arm. The magic weapon trembled slightly, and then a huge black shadow rushed over ferociously, directly hitting the porcupine boss.
"-31,410."
Li Yi killed this low-level porcupine boss in one hit, and the entire body of the boss was sent flying more than ten meters away.
This porcupine boss only had 6,000 HP. The damage dealt by his skill, Concentrated Blood Strike was high due to the difference between the maximum HP of the two. With his 30,000 HP and the boost from his magic weapon, the attack had dealt such a huge amount of damage.
"Oh my word! He dealt tens of thousands of damage in one hit. Is he even a player?"
"This... is this the strongest player in the village? His strength was so terrifying that I felt a little dizzy from his attack just now!"
"What kind of weapon does Carefree Dream own? Does it even have a special effect? But isn't this special effect a little scary, it looks dark and gloomy!"
"Doesn't it look scary? I feel like the damage he dealt could kill all of us here if we were to combine our health together!"
"..."
The individual players who had followed him to watch the battle widened their eyes at the scene before them. They had never thought that Carefree Dream could produce such a high and powerful attack.
On the other hand, the members of the Proud Guild, especially their guild leader, trembled in anger. They had fought so hard to obtain this level 5 boss.. Who would have thought that another player would appear out of the blue, stealing their kill? Moreover, this was the player they hated the most.

Chapter 32: Killing the Proud Guild, Do You Want To Learn From Me?
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Seeing his own boss being snatched away, Proud Dali angrily asked, "Carefree Dream, how can you be so shameless up to the point that you even stole our boss?"
Li Yi smiled and said, "Hehe! If you steal bosses from other people, why can't I?"
Proud Dali angrily shouted, "F*ck this! Brothers, attack him! Focus all your firepower on him! We have all the elite players with us today. We'll definitely be able to defeat this person!!"
Then, more than twenty Magic Apprentices around Li Yi immediately raised their magic staff and attacked Li Yi with their skills.
"-19."
"-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!]
Li Yi's magic defense was almost over 100 points at the moment, and the magic attacks of these Proud Guild members had only reached around 100 points. After a wave of attacks, not a single drop of HP was lost from Li Yi.
Li Yi strode towards the group of Magic Apprentices with intentions of attacking them. Suddenly, Clutch King charged over with his sword in hand. There was a red glow on the blade, and it was the Warrior Apprentice's skill, Heavy Strike!
Li Yi easily moved with a Z-like dodge from his attack. This caused Clutch King's eyes to widen. "How did he just dodge my skill just now? How... How is this possible?"
In a blink of an eye, Li Yi had already arrived in front of a group of Proud Guild members.
"Horizontal Sword Slash!"
He held his magic weapon in front of him and began his attack, a shadow of a horizontal slash could be seen by others.
"-711."
"-738."
"-1610! Critical Hit!"
...
He killed the Proud Guild members in an instant. Not a single one of them survived his skill!
Li Yi looked at the remaining members from Proud Guild and advanced towards them. Under Proud Dali's venomous gaze, he quickly commanded the rest of his members to retreat back to the Novice Village.
"Just you wait, Carefree Dream, I will-"
"-977."
With just one attack, Li Yi immediately sent Proud Dali back to the Novice Village himself.
Li Yi looked at Clutch King who was behind him and straightforwardly pointed out his opinions, "Your strength is too weak now; you don't even have the right to touch me at this moment!"
Li Yi easily slaughtered the players from Proud Guild while he dodged the attacks from the other players behind him. None of the players even had a chance to even graze his hair!
At this moment, Clutch King asked in shock, "What technique did you just use? I couldn't reach you at all; I even have a swordmaster that I learn from in real life!"
Li Yi said, "If you want to learn, I'll teach you! However, you'll have to follow me!!"
He knew Clutch King's temper very well. He liked fighting with players very much, and he liked fighting with strong people the most. Even if he died ten or a hundred times, he would give up so easily.
Clutch King immediately agreed. "Okay! It's a deal!"
Li Yi and Clutch King continued on their journey together.
...
Not long after, Li Yi had brought him to the valley. This was the gathering place of the great Bandit leader, Wiles. He glanced at the entrance of the valley. Compared to the other two bosses, Willy and Wilkes, the environment of this place looked to be much better.
It was a beautiful environment with birds that chirped and flowers that bloomed happily on the ground. It was such a waste of resources to have this kind of place that was occupied by a bunch of evil Bandits.
Li Yi checked the monster's attributes from a distance.
[Level 8 Patrol Bandit (elite)]
[Health: 4,000]
[Physical Attack: 270]
[Defense: 100]
[Skill: Horizontal Sword Slash]
...
Li Yi took out the double-edged steel sword in his backpack and said, "Come on, how can someone like you not have a better weapon?!"
Clutch King checked its attributes and immediately widened his eyes in shock. He could not take his eyes off the weapon in front of him.
Li Yi said with a smile, "How's it? Is this weapon okay?"
Clutch King said excitedly, "It's more than okay! I can easily throw mine away!"
"Great, then I'll give it to you!"
Li Yi waved his hand and gave the double-edged steel sword to Clutch King. This weapon was exactly what the player needed right now. Due to the prices of gold coins slowly soaring up, it would definitely be easy to sell it for at least seventy to eighty thousand dollars.
Clutch King equipped the weapon immediately. He was so touched that he could not speak. Li Yi just patted him on the shoulder and spoke, "Okay! It's time to fight. You have to study hard and try to defeat me as soon as possible!"
Then, Li Yi moved forward at such a high speed that even the Bandit had no time to react. His Combo and Heavy Strike landed precisely on the Bandit's neck.
"-1,410! Weak Point Damage, Critical Hit!"
"-1,200! Weak Point Damage!"
"-2,010! Weak Point Damage!"
This attack directly killed this Level 8 elite Patrol Bandit on the spot! On the other hand, Clutch King had to be very careful when he dealt with the elite Patrol Bandit in front of him. The Bandit's damage was relatively high, so it had to be an intense battle for him to make no mistakes. Otherwise, his health would not be able to hold on.
Li Yi did not bother with him; he knew that he could handle it on his own. Oddly enough, at this moment, he thought of Snow Chaser. If she were here, it would have definitely been much easier to kill the Bandits.
However, Snow Chaser had not been online for a while. He reckoned that something had happened to her at home.
...
With the support of his magic weapon, the speed at which they killed monsters passed by quickly. The Bandits in the valley were wiped out in an hour. Li Yi had finally leveled up from level 7 to level 8 from the EXP gained. The speed at which he leveled up was simply too slow. When compared to Clutch King, he jumped from level 5 to level 6 quickly and he was on the verge of reaching level 7.
The higher the level one reaches, the slower the leveling speed becomes. Novice Village was not meant for players who were about to reach level 10.
Finally, the two of them arrived at the entrance of a cave. On the right side of the cave, there were a lot of human skeletons, and above them showed a sinister sign — Wiles Cave!
When they entered the cave, it had a spacious atmosphere. At one glance, they could see that this cave burrowed deeper into the ground than they initially thought. Moreover, the sound of thunder-like snoring could be heard from inside; they deduced that it could be the boss that produced that noise.
However, this was a very cocky boss. There were very few Bandits in this cave, so much so that there were only two who stood guard! Both of the Bandits held on to their long swords and shields while they guarded the boss's treasure chest in the middle.
Li Yi checked the attributes of the guards and the treasure box.
[Rare Boss Treasure Box (Silver level): The leader of the Bandits, Wiles's most precious treasure. Whoever that dares to touch the contents, Wiles shall chase you to death!]
[Reward: Unknown!]
[Level 8 Bandit Guard (elite)]
[Health: 6,000]
[Physical Attack: 180]
[Defense: 150]
[Skills: Shield Strike, and Stab]
A typical monster with high health, high defense, and a low attack was good practice for Clutch King. When Clutch King looked at the attributes, he was shocked. "Damn, this is my first time seeing a silver treasure chest. Can I open it?"
Li Yi stopped him and said, "Let's take care of these two monsters first, one each! Whoever becomes the first to defeat their monsters will open the treasure chest!"
Clutch King immediately raised his hand in protest. "This isn't fair! Your equipment is so awesome, how can I be faster than you?"
"Critical Hit!"
Li Yi ignored his protests and released an attack that dealt a terrifying amount of damage.
"-41,230!"
This instantly killed the monster he chose to attack.
After he killed the monster, Li Yi said, "I'll leave the remaining one to you, I'm going to open the treasure chest!"
"Damn! I hope you open an empty treasure chest!" Clutch King went and begrudgingly fought the other monster one-on-one.
