The Undead Mage

 Without hesitation, Jiang Han charged towards the gray wolves. The latter, baring its fangs, ruthlessly sank them into Jiang Han's outstretched arm, depleting a tenth of his life.

-78!

In the next moment, as the gray wolf prepared to release its bite and retreat temporarily, Jiang Han, quick-witted, seized its neck. With a sudden twist, he redirected the wolf towards the Enchanted Wolf King.

Witnessing this, the Enchanted Wolf King, in the midst of striking down with its sharp claws, had to adjust its trajectory to avoid harming its kin.

MISS!

Jiang Han skillfully dodged, using the gray wolf to obstruct the Enchanted Wolf King, narrowly escaping a critical moment.

Feasible!

Jiang Han's eyes gleamed.

The Enchanted Wolf King abandoned its attack, proving the viability of Jiang Han's positional tactics.

"Howl!"

The gray wolf struggled, growling as it tried to bite Jiang Han's arm, forcing him to release his grip.

However, Jiang Han completely ignored it, sword in one hand and lifting the gray wolf with the other, bravely facing the Enchanted Wolf King.

-105!

This time, Jiang Han initiated an attack, thrusting his sword deeply into the Enchanted Wolf King's abdomen, causing it to bleed for the first time.

Immediately, the Enchanted Wolf King's cold, crimson eyes became even more ferocious. Its sharp claws descended rapidly but stopped midway, as another wolf held captive by Jiang Han was in the way.

What a despicable adventurer!

Seizing this opportunity, Jiang Han once again employed the now-cooled basic combo. The Buffalo Sword struck the Enchanted Wolf King twice, and just as it prepared to retaliate, Jiang Han decisively used the gray wolf to force it to abandon the attack.

This scenario repeated.

During this time, Jiang Han remained tense, both advancing and retreating, until he led the Enchanted Wolf King to a nearby giant rock, where he could safely unleash his attacks.

80%!

60%!

Due to Jiang Han's ability to avoid attacks, the frequency of his strikes was considerable, causing the Enchanted Wolf King's health bar to visibly decline, plummeting to half. Suddenly, it radiated a bewitching red light, seemingly thoroughly provoked.

Observing this, Jiang Han's heart skipped a beat. He felt an odd pressure enveloping him, as if the air had thickened, hindering his movements.

It seemed that the process of killing the BOSS wouldn't be as smooth as he imagined!

"Ding!~"

System prompt: Enchanted Wolf King uses the skill [Bloodthirst], +15% Attack, +20% Attack Speed, lasts 30 seconds!

"Ding!~"

System prompt: Enchanted Wolf King uses the skill [Wolf King's Deterrence], -10% Your Attack Speed, -10% Your Movement Speed, lasts 30 seconds!

The Enchanted Wolf King consecutively cast two skills, one enhancing itself and the other weakening its enemy, proving to be quite formidable.

As a precaution, Jiang Han quickly threw a healing potion into his mouth, tightly gripping the gray wolf for dear life. The Buffalo Sword descended, once again chipping away at the Enchanted Wolf King's life.

"Howl!"

The Enchanted Wolf King roared in anger. Its cold, white claws swept through, tearing the struggling gray wolf into pieces, a gruesome sight.

-1487!

The extremely terrifying damage figure appeared above the gray wolf's head, triggering a critical hit and instantly killing it!

"Ding!~"

System prompt: Enchanted Wolf King uses the skill [Tear of the Claw], dealing 250% damage to the gray wolf, but rendering itself immobile for 5 seconds!

"!!"

Finally, kin turned against kin!

Jiang Han took a sharp breath, not wasting the precious time the gray wolf sacrificed for him. Instead of retreating, he advanced, once again using the basic combo, and then unleashing full-force attacks.

-76!

-81!

-102!

...

Although the Enchanted Wolf King's buff skills were potent, fortunately, it didn't enhance its defense. Breaking through its defense was still relatively easy for Jiang Han.

After dealing with the captive adventurer's kin, once the five seconds passed, the rejuvenated Enchanted Wolf King fixed its gaze on Jiang Han. Its attack descended, extraordinarily swift and far surpassing its previous speed.

-310!

With just one hit, Jiang Han's life dropped by more than a third!

Damn, so powerful?

Jiang Han quickly retreated, creating some distance and using a nearby giant rock as an obstacle. When the Enchanted Wolf King's attack was ready, he dodged to the side, relying on the rock to play a positional game with the boss.

Evidently, it wasn't in vain that he led the Enchanted Wolf King to the side of the obstacle.

In fact, from the beginning, Jiang Han didn't believe that merely using positional tactics could easily kill a BOSS. After all, having experienced the deceit in the novice village, he had adapted to the rhythm of the game.

"Howl!"

The enraged Enchanted Wolf King, unable to achieve its attack, wasn't powerful enough to destroy hard obstacles like rocks. Under Jiang Han's nimble movements, the duration of the skill came to an end.

As Jiang Han consumed a healing potion and evaded, waiting for his life to recover to above 80%, he struck again. The Buffalo Sword, after striking down, quickly followed up with the basic combo, accelerating the output.

40%!

20%!

...

Jiang Han remained calm, not relaxing his vigilance just because the BOSS's health bar hit bottom. As soon as the cooldown time of the healing potion was over, he resumed healing until the Enchanted Wolf King fell to the ground with a mournful roar, finally releasing a relieved breath.

"Ding!~"

System prompt: You have killed the bronze-level BOSS, the [Enchanted Wolf King], gaining rewards: Experience +2000, Reputation +500!

"Swoosh!"

Golden light scattered, and Jiang Han reached level 10!

"Ding!~"

System prompt: Congratulations on reaching level 10. You can now leave the novice village and proceed to the town for a class transfer!

"Very well, the next step is to figure out how to deal with the old man and the soldier in the novice village." Jiang Han glanced at the Enchanted Wolf King's corpse, seeing several silver coins and three full sets of equipment, instantly lifting his spirits.

Bending down to pick them up, he eagerly used the detection skill to check the equipment attributes—

[Wolfhide Leggings](White-grade)

 armor, exuding considerable defensive power.

...

Three pieces of equipment, two of which were usable!

Although he had not yet undergone a class transfer, players could equip both daggers and swords. Given his proficiency in basic swordsmanship and the additional 5 points of attack with swords, equipping the Buffalo Sword was no less effective than the Wolf Fang Dagger.

Placing the Buffalo Sword in his inventory, exchanging it for the three pieces of equipment, Jiang Han opened the character panel, feeling a significant leap in all aspects—

[One Jiang Han]

Level: 10

HP: 1050

Attack: 36-38

Defense: 30-33

Reputation: 11500

Luck: 0

...

"Experts stand alone!" Looking at his skyrocketing attributes, thinking about the numerous attackers with 2-2 attacks and 1-1 defenses in the novice village, Jiang Han smiled triumphantly, "I'll just ask, who else is there?!"

"Who!"

Suddenly, a hoarse, sharp voice rang out, interrupting Jiang Han's self-appreciation, "Who killed my carefully arranged puppet?"
