Chapter 26: Silver the Wolf

Five minutes later, the three goblins all fell to the ground.

  "Ding! Killed 3 goblins, gained 540 experience points. For surpassing level 5, an additional 270 experience points are awarded."

  "Ding! Talent ability triggered, toxin damage increased by 3 points. Current toxin damage is 26."

  "Ding! Immortal Body activated, maximum health increased by 3 points. Current Immortal Body has increased maximum health by 3 points."

  Hearing these notifications one after another, Wu Shaochen felt really satisfied.

  With both talent and Immortal Body growing simultaneously, the more monsters he killed, the stronger he became. However, the experience gained from surpassing levels was quite high. Each monster gave 270 experience points, so he would level up after killing just over a hundred monsters. It was too fast.

  "Oh yeah, how could I forget." Wu Shaochen suddenly remembered the pet egg in his backpack. Pets needed to share the player's experience.

  He didn't really need it to fight monsters or anything, but sharing some experience would be good. This way, he wouldn't level up too quickly.

  Thinking about it, Wu Shaochen quickly took out the Silver Wolf King pet egg from his backpack and followed the system's prompt to hatch it.

  A burst of light flashed, and the pet egg in his hand disappeared. A small wolf pup, about the size of a puppy, appeared by Wu Shaochen's feet. It affectionately rubbed against his pants. Pet eggs hatched by players would naturally recognize their owner.

  "Ding! Hatching successful. Obtained Silver Wolf King cub, aptitude: a. Please name the pet."

  Looking at the little creature with silver fur, Wu Shaochen thought for a moment and said, "Let's call it Silver the Wolf."

  "Ding! Naming successful."

  He then checked Silver the Wolf's attributes.

  [Silver the Wolf] Pet

  Aptitude: a

  Level: 0

  Health: 200

  Mana: 100

  Physical Attack: 20

  Physical Defense: 10

  Magical Defense: 5

  Speed: 10

  Skill 1: Swift: Increases movement speed and attack speed by 50% for 30 seconds. Mana cost: 50. Cooldown: 2 minutes.

  Hmm, these attributes are stronger than a rabbit's. No wonder wolves can eat rabbits. In addition to the innate skill they are born with, pets can learn one skill every 20 levels.

  Continuing to fight goblins with the little wolf, seeing its eager expression, Wu Shaochen quickly commanded, "Go to the back and stay there, focus on gaining experience. With your small arms and legs, you're not strong enough to take a hit."

  Silver the Wolf obediently hid in the back.

  "You're quite obedient." Watching Silver the Wolf retreat, Wu Shaochen continued to grind monsters, with Silver the Wolf taking 20% of the experience. He could grind more talents and Immortal Body levels with each level.

  Meanwhile, at level 10, Ao Shi Tian Xia, who was excited to find the village chief and be teleported to the main city, was told that the teleportation array needed to be repaired and that he had to kill the Silver Wolf King. Suddenly, his mood took a turn for the worse.

At the same time, many powerful players who had finally reached level 10 in the newbie village encountered the same problem.

  They organized their teammates to go and kill the Silver Wolf King, only to end up wiped out. Then the forums exploded!

  A post titled "Terrifying Silver Wolf King, the Roadblock in the Newbie Village" instantly became the most popular.

  The content of the post roughly said: "To leave the newbie village, you must kill the Silver Wolf King. However, the Silver Wolf King's strength is off the charts, with a staggering 200,000 health, 550 attack power, wide-area group damage that ignores defense, and the ability to summon minions. Countless players are suffering from this, but they have no choice but to fight. @Dust Sealed, please share your strategy."

  The comments below were all frantically mentioning @Dust Sealed. This time, it was not like the Boar King; this time, it concerned the immediate interests of all players. So, the number of people mentioning Dust Sealed quickly exceeded a million.

  Meanwhile, the regional channel in the 8365 newbie village also became lively.

  "Damn, so we have to kill the Silver Wolf King to repair the teleportation array? The difficulty is too high!"

  "Exactly, I saw the attributes of the Silver Wolf King online. I reckon I'd be killed instantly before I even got close."

  "How did Dust Sealed, the legendary player, manage to kill such a terrifying Silver Wolf King?"

  "Yeah, I'm also curious. But more importantly, I'm happy. As long as we reach level 10, we can go directly to the main city. Isn't that a big advantage?"

  "Yes, thanks to Dust Sealed, he's amazing!"

  "Thanks to Dust Sealed, he's amazing!"

  "Jun Lin, how close are you to leveling up?" Nan Feng asked Jun Lin. Among their group, Jun Lin was the leader, so they didn't form a team afterward. They let Jun Lin deal the final blow and ensured he would be the first to receive the rewards for the first class transfer.

  "Almost there, 90%, at most half an hour," Jun Lin replied.

  "Haha, we really have to thank Dust Sealed. Otherwise, I doubt we would have had a share," Xiao Bei laughed.

  "Yeah, we have to admit that there are so many strong players in this game. I didn't expect there to be so many level 10 players already. We should definitely thank him," Jun Lin said earnestly.

  At this moment, Wu Shaochen received a private message from someone named Su Mu Xue.

  Xue Er: "Don't you check the forums?"

  "I occasionally check when I'm offline for a meal!" Wu Shaochen replied.

  Xue Er: "Offline for a meal? Isn't the nutrient solution supposed to provide all the necessary nutrients for your body for seven days?"

  "Can't afford it," Wu Shaochen decisively replied.

  Xue Er: "You're not going to tell me you're playing with a gaming helmet, are you?"

  "Yes, I am. Any problem?" Wu Shaochen said.

  Xue Er: "So you haven't slept since last night until now?"

"Last night I slept, how can I not sleep!" Wu Shaochen said.

And at this moment, Su Muxue, who was killing the Silver Wolf in the Novice Village, looked at the content on the chat with disbelief. He... was actually playing with a gaming helmet, and even went offline to sleep, but he was still ahead of everyone else. How did he do it?

Dust Sealed: "Beauty, what's up?"

Su Muxue came back to her senses and said, "Nothing, many people are looking for you on the forum. You can go up and take a look if you have time."

Dust Sealed: "I don't want to go offline right now."

"...You can directly access the forum in the game, who told you to go offline," Su Muxue rolled her eyes.

Dust Sealed: "Oh, let me take a look."

"By the way, which main city are you in?" Su Muxue asked.

Dust Sealed: "Why? You've added me as a friend, do you have any other thoughts about me?"

Su Muxue got angry and directly closed the chat interface, then picked up her weapon and attacked the Silver Wolf.

Meanwhile, Mr. Liu, who was standing on the side, looked at his young lady with a strange expression. It was the first time he had seen her like this. But he didn't say much and just watched.

After a while, Su Muxue received another private message from Dust Sealed: "Jinling City." After seeing this message, Su Muxue's lips curved into a smile. She looked at her 85% experience and knew she had to work harder.

After replying to Su Muxue's message, Wu Shaochen found the forum interface in the game and entered it. He looked at his ID: Dust Sealed. It seemed that the game ID was directly bound.

Once inside, he saw countless people mentioning him. Previously, when he browsed the forum on his phone, he did so as a guest and couldn't receive these messages. Now, with his game ID, these @ messages were directly 999+ and he didn't know how many more there were. It was better not to open them.

Wu Shaochen looked at the posts and realized that those people couldn't leave the Novice Village. Wu Shaochen didn't want to pay attention to them, but he thought about it and replied in the comments section: "Complain to the village chief!"

It wasn't really a secret, so he considered it a good deed. It saved these guys from suspecting him of cheating or having the officials investigate him every day. As for the final result, it depended on how wealthy they were. Apart from the Instant Recovery Potion, there were also potions that increased attack, HP, and speed. These potions were very helpful for them to defeat the Silver Wolf King, but they were a bit expensive. Wu Shaochen smiled cunningly.

And with his reply, it caused a great uproar.

"Oh my god, the master replied!"

"The ID is real, I thought this person was just a legend. I didn't expect the ID to be real."

"It's the real Dust Sealed, finally seeing his reply."

"But what did the master mean?"

"The master is teaching us how to strategize, those who have accepted the mission should hurry and try it out."
