Generous Murloc Village
His initial twenty-slot inventory, plus the four empty inventory slots on him, three of which held eight-slot containers, and one a quiver.
So, there were only forty-four slots for items in total!
After coming out, to save space, Yang Jian had only been hunting murlocs and wild wolves, precisely so that the dropped items would be more concentrated and his backpack wouldn't fill up too quickly!
Even so, after three hours of hunting monsters in the wild, his backpack was almost full!
"Alright, as soon as my backpack is full, I'll head back to the city!"
Although Yang Jian could increase his talent inventory through devouring.
However, in the early stages of the game, when attack and defense attributes were urgently needed, doing so would clearly not maximize his benefits.
Yang Jian still wanted to wait a bit longer!
If he had to go further and further from the safe zone later on, he could consider devouring a few large backpacks!
These eight-slot ones felt a bit like a waste of his cooldown!
The drop rates for murlocs were quite good.
After once again acquiring a level five white-grade chainmail wristguard, Yang Jian wondered if it was time to go back!
Xia Yuan Weiguang: Yang always, I am Xia Ruowei.
Following the self-introduction was a smiling emoji.
Tianmu Zhenjun: Switched over?
Xia Yuan Weiguang: Just arrived. My sister and I are already in the game plaza!
Tianmu Zhenjun: I'll be back in a while. You two look around the plaza and buy anything good...
Xia Yuan Weiguang: We don't have any money. The ten copper coins were used up when we transferred from the Newbie Village just now!
Tianmu Zhenjun: Contact Director Zhou and have her arrange for someone to mail you some game currency! Of course, if conditions allow, try to buy with Xia Yuan...
Xia Yuan Weiguang: How extravagant...
Newbie Village Plaza, No. 12315.
"Sister, what did Yang always say?"
"He said he'd be back in a while and told us to acquire good things in the plaza first!"
"What counts as good things?"
Xia Mingwei rolled her eyes at her younger sister.
"Before entering the game just now, didn't Sister Chen from finance give us an acquisition list and price list? Everything on it can be bought!"
Xia Jingruohua: Boss, there's a Hunter skill book here. Do you want it?
Tianmu Zhenjun: ? Aren't skills learned directly from the class instructor? How are there skill books?
Xia Jingruohua: It is said that class instructors only teach ten common skills; all others must be learned through skill books...
Tianmu Zhenjun: Buy it! Buy every skill book you see!
Xia Jingruohua: Yes, sir!
Yang Jian looked at his already full backpack and then at the time; it was already midnight.
Corresponding to the outside world, it was also noon!
Return to the city, then go offline to eat... Who knows when this game will update.
As soon as he went offline, he felt as if his whole body had become much weaker.
This was due to the mismatch in basic attributes between his two bodies... What would happen when his level got high?
Wouldn't going offline feel like being sick?
Just as he was about to leave, he saw a wooden treasure chest in the murloc village not far away!
These outdoor treasure chests were always unlocked and generally only spawned in humanoid monster settlements!
He looked at the surrounding murlocs.
Three murlocs were standing very close together. When these humanoid monsters were attacked, they would let out a howl, and basically all companions within thirty yards would grab their weapons and rush over.
Therefore, the forums did not recommend low-level players to fight humanoid monsters.
It was simply too easy to get wiped out!
Yang Jian assessed his strength... Arcane Shot!
-666, -208
The murloc priest's health was instantly reduced by half.
The opponent let out a roar, his eyes turning red, and charged over with his two subordinates.
Instead of hurting ten fingers, it's better to break one. Yang Jian continued to target the murloc priest.
Before running two steps, the priest turned around, trying to pretend he didn't know him... What a pipe dream!
How could he let him run away?
As the murloc priest fell, his two subordinates finally managed to rush in front of Yang Jian.
Unfortunately, his current bonus talent attack power was ridiculously high.
It was more like getting more for free than buying.
The two murloc subordinates didn't drop anything good for Yang Jian, but that murloc priest was something else... [Murloc Shortbow (Blue)]
[Equipment Level: 5]
[Ranged (Bow)]
[Damage: 7-15]
[Agility: +5]
[Strength: +5]
[Durability: 35/35]
This was really out of character. As a magic-using monster, how could he drop a bow instead of magic equipment?
He quickly swapped out the ram horn bow he was holding; the attribute difference between these two pieces of equipment was significant.
[Skill Book: King's Blessing (Paladin)]
[Description: After learning, you can cast King's Blessing on yourself or others, increasing all attributes by 5 points for 30 minutes!]
Yang Jian had a subway old man's face.
Wasn't this a priest? Was he playing cosplay?
The skill book was definitely something he couldn't pass up! He sifted through the items in his backpack, feeling like he didn't want to throw anything away... Even the trashy gray items had accumulated over a hundred, even several hundred!
Selling them to the general store would still net him over ten silver coins...
After thinking about it, he simply tucked the skill book into his embrace!
After all, it wasn't a PC game; either put it in your backpack or throw it away!
If you were willing to use your brain, you could always find a way.
While the surrounding monsters hadn't respawned, Yang Jian quickly went to open the chest.
[You opened a wooden treasure chest. Congratulations! You received Linen Cloth * 20, Linen Roll * 5, Copper Bar * 5, Weather-beaten Diary * 1, Murloc Amulet (Purple) * 1]
Yang Jian was also stunned when he saw that flash of purple light.
[Murloc Amulet (Purple)]
[Equipment Level: 5]
[Accessory: Unique]
[All Attributes +5]
[Use: Increases ranged attack power by 10 for 15 seconds. Cooldown: 3 minutes]
He quickly equipped it; even a second of hesitation would be disrespectful to a purple item!
He continued to check the rest of the loot.
[Weather-beaten Diary (White)]
[Description: Use to learn the life skill, Locate Fishing Spots!]
[Note: Cannot be learned. Requires prerequisite skill, Fishing]
Alright, now here's the problem!
Yang Jian already had linen cloth on him; one stack could hold 99 pieces!
Now he had three stacks plus 41 pieces in his backpack, and adding 20 more would fit!
But linen rolls wouldn't work. These probably had to wait until level ten, when professional skills unlocked, for players who learned tailoring to process them!
These five now... could only be thrown away!
The 'Weather-beaten Diary' could be treated the same as the 'King's Holy Seal'.
Yang Jian tucked them all into his embrace.
After confirming there were no issues, he began to cast Hearthstone to return to the city!
It must be said that currently, dying did not cause loss of experience or equipment, so dying to return to the city was the fastest method.
However, just as he had this thought, his golden finger gave him a prompt.
Do everything possible to prevent his own death!
Although it was without head or tail, Yang Jian still trusted the golden finger he brought from Earth!
Therefore, no matter how many things he had, he never thought of dying to return.
He returned to the plaza and first went to the general store to sell all the miscellaneous items in his possession.
1 gold, 48 silver, 52 copper.
Overall, the harvest was quite good!
After waiting for a moment at the general store's entrance, the Xia sisters arrived together.
"Yang always, you're amazing! You can even go out and fight monsters at night in game time, so powerful!"
"Of course, I was once known as the number one divine archer in the Three Realms! Bullying some wild boars and wild wolves is just a side task, isn't it?"
"Boss, can you take my sister and me to level up later?"
Yang Jian was speechless. He arranged for them to come here to help the boss solve problems, not to be a burden!
Just as the refusal was about to come out, Xia Mingruo sent two talents.
[Talent: Divine Retribution (Purple)]
[Effect One: Under the blessing of a Holy Seal, all attacks gain an additional 20% Holy attribute damage! When attacking, the Holy damage dealt is converted into healing for self!]
[Effect Two: All aggro caused by Holy damage is doubled!]
A chosen MT?
Xia Ruowei usually looked so quiet and gentle; could she even wield a large shield?
[Talent: Archmage (Purple)]
[Effect One: All attack spell damage is doubled!]
[Effect Two: Haste increased by 20%!]
Looking at the two talents, Yang Jian then remembered why he had recruited these sisters to the studio in the first place.
[Name: Xia Mingwei, Xia Mingruo]
[Description: Twins, not only beautiful but also gather a trace of the Xia Kingdom's imperial fortune!]
[Remark: Can consider tricking them home to be bed-warming maids!]
Blue Star, Xia Kingdom.
It was originally a feudal country, and the last feudal dynasty was the Xia Dynasty.
Later, through peaceful evolution, the imperial family officially withdrew from the stage of history, and the cabinet officially took over!
After the Long family abdicated back then, many ordinary people who lost their royal status changed their surnames, forming the four great families of Xia, Xu, Chen, and Zhou. These were lessons left behind by the tumultuous fall of the former imperial power.
Although 140 years had passed peacefully, everyone tacitly agreed not to change back to the Long surname, leaving only the branch of the Prince of Anding with the Long surname.
And the Xia sisters were two inconspicuous little nobodies from this Xia family.
