It’s quite easy to increase children’s favorability!

After a simple binding setup and facial recognition, Yang Jian linked his mobile number to his game account.

Now, if he received a call, he could answer it directly in the game, which was very convenient.

With the server just opened, there was no time to waste!

Even if leveling up wasn't urgent, he still had to consider the cooldown of his talents!

When he logged into the game again, the familiar mail notification sound rang out once more.

Four level 1 common quality pieces of equipment: a two-handed greatsword, a two-handed great hammer, and two pieces of chainmail!

Seeing the attributes of these items, Yang Jian wished he could slap himself!

He had lost out!

A level 1 common quality two-handed greatsword added more attack power than a level 2 green quality bow!

And the level 1 cloth armor he received earlier only added 5 armor, while level 1 chainmail added 19 armor... Honestly, even though Xiao Yue hadn't played games before, she picked it up really fast.

Seeing that Devour's cooldown still had half an hour left, Yang Jian went to find Tie Dan.

Tie Dan was no longer in the spot where he had been crying earlier!

This game... he couldn't treat it just as a game, especially since his cheat had already told him that these were all real people!

How could they just wait there crying, repeatedly asking people to find Da Huang?

And the repeatable quests were all phased class quests!

The main purpose of salvation, to put it plainly, was to kill monsters and level up!

"Tie Dan, practicing your archery?"

Newbie Village wasn't particularly large, and there weren't many NPCs.

After a quick inquiry, he found Tie Dan's house.

"Hello, Big Brother! I made a small mistake today, so I can't run around recklessly, or I'll get a beating!"

"Ah, when I was your age, I was much naughtier than you! Back then, I..."

A casual chat helped to bridge the gap between them.

"Want some candy?"

"What kind of candy is this? It's black?"

Tie Dan asked curiously, then leaned in to sniff it.

"Chocolate, it's delicious! Try some."

Tie Dan tentatively put the chocolate in his mouth, and his eyes instantly lit up!

"Good, isn't it!"

"Mmm, delicious!"

"Your mouth will get sticky in a bit, come, have some Wahaha!"

"Mmm, this is good too!"

What do children understand? All they want is food and drink.

After eating and drinking his fill, Tie Dan lay there, not wanting to move.

Yang Jian checked his game panel; the boy's favorability had already reached 80 points, skipping 'acquaintance' and reaching 'close friend' level!

Sure enough, with good food, we become good brothers!

With such high favorability, Little Tie Dan clearly started to care about Yang Jian's problems.

"Time is so precious right now, why isn't Brother Tian Mu going to level up?"

Ignoring the urge to explain that his name wasn't Tian Mu, Yang Jian simply sighed and began his performance.

"Alas, there are too many people outside. Our Newbie Village has at least ten thousand people, I can't get any monsters!"

Hearing his good big brother sigh, how could this be? I must share my good big brother's worries!

"I know a good place that new Adventurers usually can't get to. You can level up there, and you won't even have to fight for monsters!"

"This... can you tell me?"

Tie Dan said nonchalantly, "What's there to not tell? My dad said, it's all up to preference, do whatever you want!"

"Your dad is right, you should listen to him!"

Hearing Yang Jian's praise, Tie Dan was visibly happier.

This Newbie Village bordered a river on one side, with plains on three sides. Not far away were mountains and dense forests, a convergence of various complex terrains.

And on the river side, a little upstream, there was a river island!

That place had monsters from level 1 to level 4. If someone was farming alone, there would be no need to worry about monster respawns or fighting for monsters!

After thanking Tie Dan, Yang Jian took out a large pile of snacks for him. Although favorability became harder to increase, little by little adds up... even a small increase was good!

Yang Jian got up and hurried towards the river. The current was quite swift, making it very difficult to swim across!

However, if one went upstream a bit, entering the water from a marked spot, one could drift precisely to the island. As long as one grabbed the shore in time, they could reach the river island.

Entering the water from other locations would only result in being swept downstream by the swift current, and whether one could survive to reach the shore depended purely on luck.

Fortunately, Tie Dan's information was very accurate, and Yang Jian landed precisely on the lake island.

Indeed, level 1 wild rabbits, level 2 corrupted wild rabbits, level 3 goats, and level 4 wild boars were scattered here.

[Corrupted Wild Rabbit]

[Level: 2]

[Health: 460]

[Attack: 100]

[Defense: 45]

[Skill: Rabbit Kicks Eagle, a kicking attack dealing 50 skill damage (ignores defense), 10 second cooldown.]

Well, no wonder so many people couldn't defeat them... This thing was indeed a bit overpowered for level 2 newbies.

Perhaps everyone could win with normal attacks, but if the opponent landed a critical hit, it would be game over.

He checked the attributes of the goats and wild boars again.

Then, Yang Jian could only honestly go and bully the wild rabbits.

He drew his bow and shot an arrow, but it landed several meters away from the wild rabbit he was aiming at, weakly falling to the side.

The wild rabbit looked around, then nonchalantly lowered its head to eat grass again.

Holy crap!

My path to godhood isn't going to die in the womb like this, is it?

Tianmu Zhenjun: It's over, it's over, something big has happened...

Yueyin Qingya: Bring up your personal panel, and in the settings, choose System Assisted Attack/Casting!

Tianmu Zhenjun: ...?

Honestly, if it weren't for Yang Jian cheating, he might not have been able to trick Zhou Yue; she was practically a bug.

Yueyin Qingya: Are you leveling up in a deserted place?

Tianmu Zhenjun: How did you know?

Yueyin Qingya: Ranged classes have all encountered this problem. The forums and the crowds in the wilderness are all in an uproar... Because of this, many new players have chosen melee classes!

Tianmu Zhenjun: I've got an island all to myself, jealous?

Yueyin Qingya: There are pros and cons! Can you defeat high-level monsters? To be honest, I can only solo level 5 wild wolves with a full set of green equipment right now!

He stopped talking, opened the assisted casting function, and drew his bow to shoot an arrow again.

The arrow accurately hit the rabbit that had just ignored Yang Jian, and its eyes instantly turned red as it charged at Yang Jian.

This was just a game; if it were reality, let alone shooting it with an arrow, just seeing a person would make it turn and flee.

He shot the first rabbit four times, killing it, then went to loot the corpse, but there was nothing.

Sighing, he got up to look for the next victim.

He killed two rabbits, then switched modes to get familiar with it.

He switched back to assisted mode to kill two more, then switched back to free mode to practice.

One could only say, easy to learn, difficult to master!

But he would need this to be the savior in the future, so he had to practice!

After practicing for about an hour and a half, devouring two pieces of equipment, he had already reached level two.

[Player: Tianmu Zhenjun]

[Class: Hunter]

[Level: 2]

[HP: 240 / 240]

[MP: 140 / 140]

[Strength: 5+1 (Affects melee attack power, parry, etc., affects secondary attributes like carrying capacity)]

[Agility: 5+1 (Affects ranged attack power, critical hit, armor, and evasion, affects secondary attributes like speed)]

[Stamina: 5+1 (Affects maximum health)]

[Intelligence: 5+1 (Affects maximum mana, spell power, spell critical hit, and other attributes)]

[Free Attribute Points: 5]

[Equipment: titan heart necklace, Newbie Short Bow...]

[Talent: Devour (White)]

[Description: Devour a white quality equipment not higher than your level, inherit all of its attributes, infinitely stackable.]

[Cooldown: Remaining time 47:29]

[Upgrade Condition: 4 / 50]

[Current Devour Attributes: Attack +17, Defense +18, Space Slot +8]

He checked and saw that each level automatically added 40 health and 40 mana?

It seemed that the main way to increase stats was still through attribute allocation and equipment!

He allocated one point to each attribute, then an additional point to agility, finishing his free attribute points.

Yang Jian could rely on devouring equipment to gain attributes in the future, so he didn't need extreme attribute allocation!

With these attributes, fighting corrupted wild rabbits shouldn't be a problem!

He didn't care; he could be killed, but he couldn't be scared to death!

He switched to the level 2 Horned Bow.

He found a level 2 corrupted wild rabbit, drew his bow, and shot an arrow, hitting it with one strike.

salvation had weak point attacks, but skill channeling status could not trigger weak point attacks.

If you used free attack mode, you could aim for the eyes or vital points as you wished.

But if you were in assisted mode, sorry, you could only deal base damage... The corrupted wild rabbit was much faster. Although he chose the farthest monster within attack range,

it only took five seconds for the opponent to reach Yang Jian... -57

-58

-62

After three arrows, the wild rabbit closed in.

It immediately landed a [Rabbit Kicks Eagle], dealing 46 damage to Yang Jian.

After all, damage that ignored armor was still somewhat painful!

Not bad, after all, he had devoured a piece of chainmail and was wearing a green leather vest, so he was somewhat cheating.

It was just that no plate armor had dropped yet, otherwise his defense would be even higher.

He spent a great deal of effort, finally killing this corrupted wild rabbit.

He wounded the enemy a thousand, but lost eight hundred himself.

Potions were too expensive, and waiting for recovery was too slow. One corrupted wild rabbit gave Yang Jian 20 experience points.

He then looked at the experience required for the next level: 19 / 2200.

No wonder it had been almost six hours since the server opened, and the mainstream player base was only level three... While waiting for recovery, his phone rang.
