13: Level 2

Seeing the child's movements, Xu Shian realized only then, belatedly, that there were already many Irritable Wild Chickens lying around this area!

He checked his combat log and system inventory.

"Ding, congratulations on killing the level 2 monster 'Irritable Wild Chicken', you have gained: EXP + 4, extra lifespan + 2."

"... Congratulations on obtaining loot: Tail Feather + 3, Chicken Leg + 1."

"... Congratulations on obtaining loot: Tail Feather + 2, Chicken Breast + 2, equipment 'straw hat'!"

"Hmm...? It even dropped equipment?"

He checked his inventory; during this time, he had obtained a total of 19 common grade Tail Feathers, 7 Chicken Legs, 11 servings of Chicken Breast, 8 rough grade Sharp Bird Beaks, and 12 Sharp Claws!

Beast-type monsters don't drop money directly! If you need money, you have to sell these items to NPCs!

As for players, they probably don't want these items for now; they need finished products!

The main event had arrived...

In one of the slots in Xu Shian's inventory, a piece of equipment lay quietly!

【straw hat】

【common grade】

【Head, Cloth Armor】

【Equipment Requirement: None】

【Physical Defense + 3】

【Magic Defense + 2】

【HP + 20】

【Durability: 15 / 15】

(A straw hat... why is it Cloth Armor?)

Xu Shian was speechless when he saw the final question!

"Why is it Cloth Armor! Are you asking me? Then who should I ask?"

These stats are truly only slightly better than having nothing... but it's better than nothing!

Xu Shian placed the straw hat on his head!

Checking his EXP again, it was already 98/100!

His extra lifespan had increased by another 22 days...

Goodness, in such a short while, these few rabbits had already killed eleven Irritable Wild Chickens?

This drop rate is quite decent!

Almost every monster dropped something for him... although it wasn't equipment, you can't say it didn't drop anything, right?

I have to say, that's the good thing about being a powerful Summoner!

As long as you arrange tasks for your minions, you can just lie back and relax...

However... looking at the time, it was already one o'clock in the afternoon!

He opened his status panel again to check his condition:

【Satiety: 31 / 100】

【energy points: 58 / 100】

Kill one more chicken, reach level two, and then find a place to eat!

Xu Shian took out his bow and arrow and shot one at an Irritable Wild Chicken!

This time he had learned his lesson; he aimed for a long time, and when he shot, he didn't dare to aim for the chicken's head!

After all, a chicken head is only that small, and Xu Shian's current shooting accuracy is quite pathetic...

The arrow struck the chicken's wing; the chicken was furious, flapping one wing as it lunged toward Xu Shian...

The result, of course, was four consecutive headbutts...

"Ding, congratulations on killing the level 2 monster Irritable Wild Chicken, you have gained EXP + 4, extra lifespan + 2 days."

"Congratulations on obtaining loot: Chicken Wing (common) * 2, Tail Feather (common) * 4."

"Ding, congratulations, player level has increased to level two, you have gained 5 free stat points!"

Xu Shian thought about it; he didn't seem to know how to allocate stats for the main class, Summoner!

He had browsed the forums before, and there was a rumor that Summoners were "all-rounders" who should allocate stats evenly...

Wouldn't that mean having no unique characteristics at all?

Xu Shian couldn't believe it!

He decided to just save his free stat points for now and check if the Jianghu Encyclopedia had any relevant posts later!

Since he wasn't allocating stats for now, there would be no other changes for Xu Shian!

But he still needed to check the EXP required for leveling up...

【Level: 2 (0.01%)】 (2 / 800)

Eight hundred?

Xu Shian frowned; these level two Irritable Wild Chickens only gave 4 EXP, so he would have to kill 200 chickens to level up?

A headache... quite a headache...

However, he was level two now, so he could replace his Summoned Beasts!

He sent two of the Wild Rabbits back into the 'Emerald Dream'.

In the game "myriad realms online", because skill slots are scarce, one Contract Summoning skill has several functions!

Contract, Summon, Dismiss, Release...

It simulates a realistic game, focusing on freedom! As long as the command in your heart is correct, you can cast the spell you want!

With two slots opened up, Xu Shian began to pick his lucky candidates!

After looking at several Irritable Wild Chickens, Xu Shian realized something.

He didn't even have a Scouting Technique right now, so he couldn't view the relevant information of the monsters!

He could only see the name... what difference could the name make?

This entire area rampant with chickens all had the same name...

He picked one at random and cast 【Contract Summoning】!

The fifteen-second cast time was sped up three times by the 【Gift of Nature】 talent, finishing in just five seconds!

A flash of golden light passed, and the name of the Irritable Wild Chicken that had just been entangled by the two Wild Rabbits changed from red to green!

【Irritable Wild Chicken, pet of player 'Shi Chuan'】 (You can rename it for free once!)

【Level: 2】 【EXP: 0 / 800】 【Strength: 7+1】 【Agility: 5+1】 【Stamina: 10+1】 【HP: 200+20 + 150】 【Physical Attack: 25+2 + 30】 【Physical Defense: 5+15】 【Magic Defense: 5+15】 【Skills: None】

Rename? He could think about what name to change it to!

But looking at these stats... although it's stronger than a Wild Rabbit, under the buff of a level 4 Summoning spell, the strength is limited!

Sending the remaining two Wild Rabbits back to the Emerald Dream, Xu Shian contracted two new chickens once more...

There weren't many people fighting for monsters in the level two monster area!

But now that the EXP required for leveling up was so high, Xu Shian had to consider how to level up quickly...

He would first go test the strength and EXP of level three and four monsters before deciding what to do!

However... people are like iron, rice is like steel; if you don't eat a meal, you'll be starving!

Now he had to prioritize how to appease his stomach...

When he went out, his plan was quite good!

He had learned a skill to roast small fish! Once he was done leveling up, he would go fishing in the Novice Village and roast them to eat...

Who would have thought, he would run into someone who insisted on being a jerk...

He killed Irritable Wild Chickens all the way as he walked toward the level three monster area.

After walking for about half an hour, he finally left the level two monster area!

You could barely see anyone near the Irritable Wild Chickens; it turned out the players with ideas had all come here to fight Goats...

Xu Shian observed for a while and estimated that these Goats should have skills!

Because when Xu Shian first arrived, he clearly saw a Goat using a skill similar to Charge!

It shoved the man holding a shield, making him shriek!

Perhaps Xu Shian's sudden appearance distracted the other party, and the shield didn't block it, causing the Goat's Charge to slam into that man's stomach!

The two people next to him, whether they were his colleagues or family members, were worried about the man's safety but didn't dare to lower their guard against this Goat.

They could only fight while asking useless questions like "Are you okay?"!

Of course he's not okay; didn't you see this guy clutching his stomach and unable to get up?

Xu Shian didn't want to go over and show concern for the other party; what if they thought he was there to steal their monster...

The level two monster area was already very large, but he didn't expect the level three monster area to be even bigger!

The grassland as far as the eye could see had scattered Goats grazing...

Hmm? Grassland? Goats?

These developers are really too lazy...

There were scattered teams fighting monsters here, most of them clearly being family groups!

You could tell at a glance that it was parents bringing their children...

Most of them were two DPS classes with one healer!

Unless their talent was terrifyingly powerful, most would choose to fight in groups.

Only someone like Xu Shian could come out alone to cause trouble.

And those with average talent were currently in the village discussing forming teams!

And here at the Goats, Xu Shian saw several strong individuals soloing the Goats!

He wanted to walk over to take a look, but he saw the other party back out of the monster's aggro range, looking at Xu Shian with a vigilant expression...

Speechless... I'm not trying to steal your monster!

Moving away from these people with excessive vigilance, Xu Shian intended to find a quieter place to test the strength of these Goats!

Walking all the way to a quiet spot under the cliff, Xu Shian liked the environment there and decided to beat up the Goats there...

He took out his bow and arrow and shot one over...

This time it hit! - 12

This... the passive Bow Mastery added one point of damage for Xu Shian, and the inferior arrows also added one point of damage!

Plus his own attack power!

The defense of this Goat must be at least ten points or even higher!

The monsters currently discovered in the Novice Village are all passive yellow-named monsters, belonging to the passive-aggression type!

Usually they are quiet, and everyone lives in peace, but once attacked, they will immediately retaliate!

The Goat Xu Shian chose was at a certain distance from him!

He saw the Goat lower its head, and with its horns facing Xu Shian, it launched a Charge...
