4: The fourth entry of Old Man Chen
The one walking towards him was none other than his son, Chen Fan!
It seemed that players from the same city were highly likely to spawn in adjacent Newbie Villages.
The chances of running into each other were very high.
Chen Fan held a greatsword, a Level 2 Warrior.
His ID was Peerless Ye Fan, and he had two people following him.
There was a Level 1 Priest, Liu Ruyun, with the ID Peerless Ru Yan, and a skinny Level 1 Archer he didn't recognize.
The three of them were in a party, but only Chen Fan was Level 2.
He didn't need to think twice to know they had adjusted the experience ratio.
Selfish and self-serving.
That was the style of this unfilial son...
"Strange... Didn't he say he was accompanying some CEO Zhang? Why are there only three of them...?"
Chen Beixuan narrowed his eyes, pondering silently.
At this moment, the three also clearly saw Chen Beixuan's face, and all of them were stunned.
Chen Fan let out a surprised 'hmm' and stepped closer.
He squinted, looking him up and down.
Chen Beixuan remained unperturbed, like an old monk in meditation.
He had adjusted his appearance to the maximum, so it was impossible for him to be recognized.
Chen Fan suddenly pointed at his nose, a look of disbelief on his face!
"You... you, you..."
...You must be over 50!
"Holy cow, an old senior! I'm impressed..."
Chen Beixuan: "......"
He quietly activated the voice changer, and calmly said, "Something wrong?"
Chen Fan reacted, laughing, "Do you want to party with us...?"
"No need."
Before he could finish his sentence, Chen Beixuan directly turned and left.
With his current damage, one Lightning Spell would be enough to instantly kill this unfilial son.
But acting now would be too easy for them!
Wouldn't it be more satisfying to let them painstakingly raise their levels and gear, and then have it all explode off them?
If they dared to touch Xiao Lu, they had to be prepared to endure his wrath!
Chen Fan was completely unaware of this.
At this moment, his face was ashen due to Chen Beixuan's dismissive attitude.
Looking at Chen Beixuan's retreating back, he spat fiercely!
"Damn it, if CEO Zhang's party wasn't full, would I even bother with an old geezer like you?"
Because he couldn't deliver Xiao Lu, CEO Zhang was somewhat displeased.
This led to him being reduced to pulling in random players.
Every time he thought of this, he became furious.
His resentment towards Chen Beixuan, this old man, grew even stronger.
Just looking at the old man annoyed him!
He made up his mind.
He would find a lawyer tomorrow and file a lawsuit!
No matter what, he had to get Xiao Lu back!
Liu Ruyun stepped forward to comfort him, "Don't be angry. Let's focus on leveling up. It's his loss if he doesn't want to party."
The skinny guy also stepped out and patted his shoulder.
"That's right. When he finds himself unable to farm monsters later, he'll regret not agreeing to join us."
"Besides, there are three of us. We'll definitely level up faster than him. It won't be too late to deal with him then."
Listening to their words, Chen Fan's expression softened considerably.
"You're right. Let's level up first, and then we'll deal with him."
"That's more like it..."
Liu Ruyun and the other person smiled...
Little did they know.
Chen Beixuan's current damage didn't require a party at all.
Their plans were destined to fall through...
......
After shaking off the three, Chen Beixuan gradually ventured deeper.
He cast Detect on a Big-Horned Sheep.
——————
Furious Big-Horned Sheep: Level 2
Health: 400
Attack: 50
Defense: 10
Magic Resistance: 5
Skills: Swift Charge, Trample.
——————
No wonder players here were all farming in parties; the Big-Horned Sheep actually had a high attack power of 50!
Perhaps only Knights who focused on Constitution could tank a few more hits.
If aggro wasn't managed well, it was easy to wipe.
However, for him, it was very simple, just two Lightning Spells.
Time to farm!
"Lightning Spell!"
Boom—
-130.
Lucky Strike +3!
Boom boom boom—
-130, -130, -130.
This time, he actually had a burst of luck and triggered a +3 combo!
Four consecutive bolts of lightning struck the Big-Horned Sheep, directly emptying its health bar!
[Ding! You killed [Furious Big-Horned Sheep Lv2], gaining 15 experience points!]
Immediately after, a bright light appeared at the Big-Horned Sheep's corpse!
A skill book appeared on the ground...
Chen Beixuan was stunned.
He opened his panel in disbelief and glanced at it.
...My Luck is still 1, that's right...
Closing the panel, his expression was complex.
He didn't know whether to be happy or sad.
"I hope I don't lose hair waking up in the middle of the night..."
Shaking his head, he picked up the skill book to examine it.
——————
[Trample] ★
Description: Stomp the ground, dealing 150% physical damage to enemies within a 3-meter radius, stunning for 1 second. Cooldown 20 seconds, consumes 10 mana.
Required Class: Warrior
——————
"A Warrior skill... What a pity..."
Chen Beixuan smacked his lips.
Since he couldn't learn it himself, selling it was a good option.
The game had a built-in trading auction house, making player-to-player trading very convenient.
He opened the auction house and selected the skill category.
There was only one Priest's Slow Recovery skill sitting there all alone.
However, this single skill was priced at 50 silver coins!
Converted, that was equivalent to 5000 large coins.
With another refresh, the skill book was bought and disappeared.
Chen Beixuan was secretly startled, but also very happy.
If a Priest's recovery skill was so expensive, wouldn't his Warrior's versatile divine skill be even more valuable?
Without hesitation, he decisively put the skill book up for sale.
Starting bid 50 silver coins, with a 1-hour auction mode, highest bidder wins.
Closing the trade house, he didn't waste any time.
Time to farm!
"Lightning Spell!"
Boom—
-130.
Lucky Strike +1!
Boom—
-130.
The Big-Horned Sheep's fur was scorched black from the lightning, and it bleated as it charged towards him!
Chen Beixuan always cast skills at the absolute maximum casting range, so he was quite far away.
He retreated while waiting for the skill cooldown.
As soon as five seconds passed, another Lightning Spell immediately struck!
Boom—
-130.
Lucky Strike +1!
-130.
[Ding! You killed [Furious Big-Horned Sheep Lv2], gaining 15 experience points! Copper Coin +2!]
Chen Beixuan breathed a slight sigh of relief, a smile appearing on his face.
That's right, this is normal!
The 'lifespan combo' was just a coincidence.
Hair is safe...
He collected the two copper coins and quickly immersed himself in farming monsters.
......
He didn't know how much time had passed.
A crisp notification sound rang out!
[Ding! Proficiency full, Lightning Spell skill level has risen to 3 stars! Next level (3/800)]
Chen Beixuan clicked on the skill and scanned it.
Damage increased from 450% to 480%, a 30% increase, which was not bad.
Power of Destruction adds to the base damage multiplier, providing a huge boost in the early game but becoming slightly less effective later on.
Addition and multiplication each have their pros and cons, but in the early game, addition is definitely stronger.
He also had Lucky Strike, so his skill leveling speed was several times faster than others.
He was just a little bit short on experience to level up.
After spending some time killing another one, the level-up notification sounded.
[Ding! Your level has increased to Level 3, gaining 3 free attribute points!]
[Ding! The Skill - Lexical Entry Assignment talent has taken effect, granting the golden Lexical Entry [Lead the Thunder]!]
[Lead the Thunder]: Gold Quality
Effect Description: When a skill deals damage, an additional sub-lightning bolt will strike, dealing 50% of the current damage, with no cooldown.
Note: Combos can also trigger sub-lightning.
——————
"Golden Lexical Entries are truly one more abnormal than the last..."
Chen Beixuan sighed faintly.
He immediately assigned Lead the Thunder to Lightning Spell.
All attribute points were invested into Intelligence, raising his magic attack to 36 points.
Looking up, he then realized that the number of players nearby had unknowingly increased.
There was also a party of players beside him, standing stunned, staring at him with wide eyes.
Chen Beixuan's slightly white eyebrows raised.
"What, you've never seen an old man play games?"
The leading Warrior, with the ID I Want to Defy the Heavens, heard the question.
He immediately took three steps in two, his expression agitated, and grabbed Chen Beixuan's hand.
"Grandpa, you must join my team!"
Lu Ziming's expression was very sincere, and he inwardly exclaimed that he had found a treasure.
One skill, two consecutive lightning bolts, and the damage was incredibly high!
This was definitely someone who had awakened a high-level talent!
And don't look down on the old man's age; his precise control over skill range clearly showed he was an expert!
When he was young, he must have been a legendary high-level player in the gaming world, an ancient player!
If he wanted to make a name for himself in the game, what he needed most were capable individuals like this!
But just as he was eagerly awaiting Chen Beixuan's reply.
An untimely voice came over...
