Don't you just get equipment by defeating monsters? Do you have to defeat bosses?
His gaze fixed on the Boar King, his mind stirred.
Name: Boar King
Description: Not every race can birth its own leader. Kill it, and cherish it!
Current Status: Earth Armor, Defense +100 (Duration: 1 minute); Enraged, Attack +50 (Duration: 3 minutes)
Notes: Fight! It's a BOSS, if you don't fight BOSSes in a game, you might as well go home and sell sweet potatoes! Note: The opponent has been taking a beating without ever fighting back. It's in a bad mood, so it's better to avoid its edge...
Yang Jian didn't waste a single cooldown for the Arcane Shot, which fired every six seconds.
Switching weapons had also become more second nature to him.
The most dangerous moments were when he needed to switch to a different large tree!
The Boar King was massive. Although its strength value wasn't visible, its physique alone spoke volumes.
One tree could withstand about ten of its savage charges before he needed to find another one.
Every time this happened, it was Yang Jian's most perilous moment.
A tug-of-war lasted for almost an hour until he finally wore down the Boar King by himself.
Just as he was about to step forward to pick up the drops, a system sound suddenly rang in his ear.
Ding, congratulations on achieving the First Kill of the Black Iron-gradefield BOSS, Boar King. An announcement will be issued shortly. Would you like to hide your ID?
Heh heh, in this game, my ID isn't displayed above my head. If I don't hide it, who could recognize me by this face?
Don't hide!
Ding, server-wide announcement! Player 'Tianmu Zhenjun' achieved the server's First Kill of the Black Iron-grade BOSS, Boar King, and is awarded the title 'First Blood'. This is hereby announced!
Ding, server-wide announcement! Player 'Tianmu Zhenjun' achieved the server's First Kill of the Black Iron-grade...
Ding, ...
He knew there would be an announcement, but he didn't expect it to be a server-wide announcement!
Ding, player 'Tianmu Zhenjun' has obtained a title and unlocked the Achievement System. The Achievement System will undergo a non-stop update at 8 PM tonight. Please look forward to it!
Ding, player 'Tianmu Zhenjun' has obtained a title and unlocked...
Ding, ...
Another triple announcement, and Yang Jian was now thoroughly famous.
But the surroundings were as quiet as ever. Finally, Yang Jian realized what was missing from this game... No chat channel?
My showing off isn't even smooth now, trash game, ruining my youth.
The public chat channel was indeed not open; currently, there was only regional chat.
That is, in crowded places, such as the area near the village entrance, there would be a regional chat channel. Yang Jian was very far from there, so he naturally couldn't join that chat channel.
As for the Newbie Village's main channel and the world channel, they were not available yet, and it was unknown if they would be opened in the future!
Just as he was thinking it was rather quiet, friend request messages started bombarding him.
Helplessly, Yang Jian could only set his status to reject friend requests from strangers!
The world returned to peace, leaving only a small area in the center of the lake in a mess, as if a typhoon had ravaged it!
Several light orbs dropped around the Boar King, and Yang Jian could pick them up directly.
Boar King's Gift (Blue)
Wristguards: Leather Armor
Required Level: 5
Armor +35
Agility +3
Stamina +3
Durability: 30/30
After such a long time since the server opened, data fanatics had already compiled a set of equipment and data analysis, uploading it to the salvation forums.
Regarding equipment, there were currently four known colors.
Gray equipment was basically damaged.
Such equipment not only lacked bonus attributes but also had significantly less attack and defense than comparable white equipment.
White equipment was the common equipment everyone currently used.
It only had basic attributes like attack or defense, with no additional attributes... Green equipment, while having the same basic attributes as white equipment, had extra affixes that could increase other attributes.
For example: +1 Agility, +1 Intelligence, etc... Blue equipment would have two additional bonus attributes!
This 'Boar King's Gift' was equipment of that grade, and with two +3 attributes, it was considered a minor top-tier item!
No one had dropped purple equipment yet, but this pattern had been seen in other games, so everyone basically had a good idea!
He looked at the second drop.
Thorn Staff (Blue)
Two-Handed: Staff
Required Level: 5
Attack: 16-25
Intelligence +5
Stamina +5
Durability: 50/50
Yang Jian was a bit speechless. He had just said his wristguards were a minor top-tier item, and in a blink of an eye, a truly top-tier item appeared!
Tianmu Zhenjun: Thorn Staff (Blue), does anyone need this?
Yueyin Qingya: Finished collecting the spoils of war? Did this drop from the BOSS?
Tianmu Zhenjun: How about it? Should I mail it to you?
He opened his friend list, where a single, lonely player was listed.
Friend, Yueyin Qingya LV5, Current Status: Online
Yueyin Qingya: You should keep it for yourself. I remember hunters can also equip staves!... Also, I mailed you two level 4 white items and two level 5 ones!
Tianmu Zhenjun: You don't even look at these?
Yueyin Qingya: Pioneer Staff (Purple), Apprentice Robe (Purple). I have better ones here, you should keep yours!
Tianmu Zhenjun: ??? Wasn't this BOSS a First Kill? Where did you get this equipment?
Yueyin Qingya: Do you need to fight a BOSS to get equipment? Can't any small monster drop these things?
He couldn't hold it in anymore. Yang Jian cursed and grumbled as he closed the private chat.
Who the hell is the protagonist here?
He opened the system panel's built-in clock; it was six in the afternoon.
On the horizon, a massive red sun was slowly setting in the west!
Yueyin Qingya: Do you see that red sun? So beautiful!
Tianmu Zhenjun: I'm looking at it... Name: Lu Ze (salvation World Sun God)
Description: Formed from a drop of essence blood from the ancient Sun God, Dong Huang Taiyi, responsible for suppressing the order of the salvation World.
Notes: Abyss creatures have long set their sights on the salvation World, but unfortunately, this is the main base where the gods cultivate their reserve forces, so it's still quite safe for now...
Who would normally stare at the sun for no reason, especially during the day when it's blazing? Yang Jian didn't dare to stare at it either!
It wasn't until now that he noticed a clue.
However, these things were too far removed from Yang Jian; he could only watch for entertainment!
Less than half an hour after the sun set, around seven o'clock, the moon quietly rose.
The forums exploded again because three full moons rose simultaneously.
Name: Elune (Moon Goddess)
Description: The largest deity cultivated in the salvation World. As the position of Moon Goddesses in all heavens is held by Goddess Wang Shu, Elune can only remain in the salvation World to protect the Dao!
Notes: I heard this Moon Goddess is a great beauty. With a little effort, you might be able to trick her into coming home!
... Name: Hematolger (Blood Moon Evil God)
Description: The Abyss has long coveted salvation as a lucrative prize, and Hematolger is their vanguard.
Notes: The bigger the waves, the more expensive the fish. Although monster attributes increase by 50% under the nourishment of the Blood Moon, experience and drop rates also increase! What are you waiting for? Deal with them!
Yang Jian had an old man's face, staring at his phone on the subway. What the hell did they mean by 'deal with them'? Didn't they know he had almost run out of bullets fighting the Boar King?
He looked up at the last moon, and good heavens, Yang Jian exclaimed, 'Good heavens!'
Name: Lanhaizi (??? )
Description: Originally supposed to be the salvation World's native destined Moon Goddess, but unfortunately, she couldn't compete with the fated girl Elune, and was also specifically targeted by the evil god Hematolger. Now, she's in a state of incomplete brain development and completely undeveloped cerebellum!
Notes: Although her divine position is damaged, it's still a viable alternative path!
He pulled out his hearthstone, and the countdown to return to town began!
With a flash of white light, Yang Jian reappeared in the Newbie Village square.
Instantly, a cacophony of sounds assailed him.
Good heavens, these monsters are like they've taken drugs at night; they're more than just a little stronger!
Don't any of you chat with NPCs?
Ever since the Blood Moon Hematolger appeared in the sky over two thousand years ago, monster attributes have doubled at night!
Which idiot planner came up with that name? It's such a mouthful?
...Selling equipment! Level 2 white greatsword, 2 silver coins!
As soon as this voice rang out, people instantly swarmed over!
Yang Jian looked at their enthusiasm and couldn't help but wonder how many silver coins he had consumed that day.
Talent: Devour (White)
Description: Devour a white equipment item no higher than your level, inheriting all of its attributes. Can be stacked infinitely.
Cooldown: Remaining time 05:21
Upgrade Condition: 10/50
Current Devoured Attributes: Attack +72, Defense +32, Space Slot +8
He went to the inn's mailbox and retrieved the package Zhou Yue had sent him.
Congratulations! You have obtained Boar's Heart x160, Linen Bag (White) x2, Victor's Helmet (Blue) x1, Silver Coins x5.
Yang Jian couldn't help but click his tongue twice.
Aren't I just living off a woman now?
Then he looked at the attributes of the Victor's Helmet.
Oh my goodness, it smells so good!
