Chapter 4: Upgrade

  Yue Qian did not know about that conversation in the newbie village. At this time, he had already entered the Lorain instance and was fighting a large group of goblins.

  I didn't know how many tens of thousands of goblins I had killed before, but it was the first time I really took a stick to fight against goblins. The crushing victory I imagined did not appear, and instead, Yue Chuan was beaten until he covered his head and fled. It wasn't that the goblins were too strong or Yue Chuan was too weak, but there were just too many goblins. With two fists hard-pressed to resist four hands, Yue Chuan would hit a goblin once, only to be hit by ten or more goblins in return. Faced with over a dozen goblins, what else could Yue Chuan do besides run?

  "No way, goblins always come in groups, we need to find those who are alone."

  Thinking of this, Yuechuan put away his proud and arrogant attitude, and instead sneaked around in the shadows of the trees, observing the distribution of those goblins. Before long, he found a lone unlucky one. The goblin was chasing after a small flying insect that had left its lair, and fell into Yuechuan's eyes.

  "It's all up to you!"

  A swift strike, a mace smashed into the goblin's slender neck, knocking its head at an eerie angle. A killing blow, with a force so fierce and sharp that it severed the goblin's overloaded neck in one go, and a gush of blood splattered all over the ground. Everything was just so perfect. Yuechuan had never thought he had such a talent for battle, this unlucky goblin didn't even have time to call for backup before its head rolled off.

  The corpse on the ground gradually faded away and disappeared. Yue Chuan rummaged through the grass, and suddenly saw two things: a bottle of low-grade life potion and four copper-green coins.

  "Damn it, I thought I'd get a gold coin! Why is it a copper coin? What a rip-off!"

  In the real world, currency is divided into three types: gold, silver and copper. One gold coin can be exchanged for one hundred silver coins or ten thousand copper coins. Yue Chuan thought that by killing a few monsters he could get several thousand or even tens of thousands of gold coins, greatly improving his life in reality. However, he didn't expect this crappy game world to suddenly lower the drop rate of money by ten thousand times.

  Easy wealth became an illusion, and Yue Chuan could only use more effort and sweat to achieve it, continuing to hover in the tree shadows, searching for the next prey.

  The spoils of war in his backpack grew more and more, the experience bar also grew fuller and fuller. Before long, Yue Chen was enveloped by a dense golden light. This was not unfamiliar to Yue Chen, it represented a rise in level, also meant an increase in attributes, at the same time, his real self would also become stronger.

  "This feeling is really great!"

  Yue Chuan clenched his fist, and he could clearly feel the explosive power, his biceps also became more robust, swinging the stick could hear the whistling sound of breaking wind. This degree of force hitting the goblin would absolutely cause its tendons to snap and bones to break. Immediately after, the goblin used its own body to prove Yue Chuan's conjecture, just one strike, and the goblin was beaten to a pulp, in other words, Yue Chuan's current strength was already enough to instantly kill the goblin.

  Crush! Flatten! Sweep away!

  This is the real map brushing, wherever he goes, no goblin can stop him. He is a god who kills people and a Buddha who kills Buddhas. More than 100 goblins use their corpses to pave a road of death for Yuechuan. However, soon after, a giant goblin lord appeared in front of Yuechuan!

  According to the rules of "Dungeon & Warriors", each copy of the underground city consists of small monsters, elite monsters and bosses. The boss is generally the strongest in the entire copy of the underground city and usually also drops the most items. Killing the boss means passing the copy of the underground city and getting rich rewards in gold and experience. Of course, it's also possible to be killed by the boss.

  Yuè Chuān didn't say a word, and with his stick at the ready, he charged forward. However, the Goblin Lord raised his hand, and a blurry black shadow shot towards Yuè Chuān. Before he could even react, he felt a stinging sensation on his cheek, and with a cry of "aiyo", he crouched down.

  "It's the Goblin of the Throwing Stones, how could I have forgotten this one!"

  This goblin, apart from its massive build, also possessed the ability to hurl stones. On its back was a wicker basket woven from vines, filled with rocks of all sizes. The lead goblin had incredible strength, and the stones it threw were as powerful as heavy hammers. If Yue Chen hadn't been frequently beaten up by Huang Mao Hu and others over this period, toughening his skin, this one hit would have knocked him out cold.

  Yuè Chuān tried to get closer to the Goblin Lord again, but was brushed off by a stone once more. Hmm, brushed off, Yuè Chuān discovered that his reaction ability could still dodge the Goblin Lord's stone-throwing attack, it was just slightly strained.

  After eating a few losses, Yuechuan tried to observe the Goblin Lord's starting action and direction, predicting the trajectory of the stone in advance, so that he could give himself more reaction time, and better dodge the attack. The comfortable posture even had a kind of strolling through the garden feeling.

  "Alright, game time is over! Harvest begins!"

  Yue Chuan had grasped the Goblin Lord's method and became fearless, dodging left and right with his stick. In just a few blinks of an eye, he closed in and struck the Goblin Lord's forehead with a blunt blow. Instantly, a large lump swelled up, and the Goblin Lord's pupils became disordered. The subsequent attacks were completely inaccurate, and he even threw himself into the air several times.

  Before long, the Goblin Lord fell to the ground, contributing a rich experience to Yue Chen, moving the experience bar slightly, and also obtained five bottles of Novice Life Potion and one bottle of Novice Magic Potion. As for gold, Yue Chen surprisingly found two silver coins from the grass. Indeed, being a lord is different.

  Yuè Chuān re-challenged several times, and finally welcomed the golden light again. His level was upgraded to three, and all aspects of his attributes made a big leap forward. Yuè Chuān was eager to compare himself with Huáng Máo Hǔ. However, thinking about the many younger brothers around Huáng Máo Hǔ, as well as the mysterious Black Tiger Gang leader, Yuè Chuān could only tell himself to endure for now and focus on leveling up.

  However, at this time, the cold system sound told Yue Chuang: "Your fatigue value has been depleted..."

  Upon hearing this, Yue Chuan was stunned for a moment before cursing, "You've already crossed over, what's with the fatigue value?! System, can't you just turn off the black hole?!"

  The system was where Li Hui and Yue Chuan were, muttering to themselves for half a day, Yue Chuan had no choice but to give up the idea of opening black holes.

  Took a look at the spoils of war in my backpack, 30 bottles of Novice Life Potion, 12 bottles of Novice Magic Potion, 30 silver coins, plus a few loose white equipment on me.

  "They're all just tattered and worn-out stuff, when will someone with good taste come along and give me a makeover?"
