Chapter 3: Violence Rewards
I made my own choice directly, and the system's next prompt also popped up.
"Ding Dong!" System Prompt: "Please enter your nickname!"
I didn't struggle with this either, because when I bought the helmet, I had already thought of my nickname. The previous ID would not be used again, that ID could only represent the fleeting glory of the past. Since I chose to follow the same path as Tian Ge, after retiring from virtual games for three years, then I must make something of myself in this virtual world!
"Unbelievable!"
I shouted loudly!
"Ding Dong!" The system prompted: "Your ID is available for use! Next, enter character appearance settings!"
Secretly delighted, many players have problems when setting their own nicknames, repeatedly wasting their precious leveling time. You know how precious the first hour of entering the game is, even if you save one minute, it's possible to leave a big gap with your opponent in the early stage!
As for the character's appearance design, I directly used my own looks, neither beautifying nor uglifying. This is not boasting, although I don't know who my biological parents are, but I think they must be a handsome man and a beautiful woman, otherwise it would not have been possible to give birth to a son as elegant as me.
Cough cough, seems like there's a bit of a farting suspicion.
Then, after directly clicking on the original appearance, the system bell rang again!
"Ding Dong!" "Welcome to Illinois National Geographic..."
The eyes were once again enveloped in dazzling white light.
Opening his eyes again, he found himself in a forest, surrounded by lush green grass and towering trees.
I'm wearing a canvas vest and shorts, which makes me look quite cool.
At this moment, a faint silver light began to flash around, and the player's figure started to take shape.
Although it's been a long time since I last played the game, as an old bird, I still haven't forgotten my habits. Without noticing the refreshed monsters in front of me, I immediately opened my own backpack.
Very good, empty and bare, not even a wooden stick was given to me.
Reopening my own attribute table shocked me even more——

……
Hey, no way! I saw the pre-release materials for "Holy War" a month ago, and Scout shouldn't be this attribute file!
I immediately opened up an online encyclopedia and directly looked up the properties of a scout. Upon comparison, I was shocked!
A normal scout's attribute file is Strength 7 Intelligence 4 Agility 8 Constitution 6. But mine, Constitution and Intelligence haven't changed, only Strength and Agility have changed. Strength increased by two levels, Agility decreased by two levels!
Scouts are a profession that relies on agility to eat, the higher the agility, the higher the hit rate, and the higher the dodge rate, the less likely they are to be hit by physical system monsters. But for themselves, it's just the opposite, 9th-level strength and 6th-level agility, this high strength is enough to rival that of human warriors, uh, no, it's even one level higher than warriors!
I couldn't help but burst out laughing at this point, the system has really gone too far this time, it's actually playing a huge joke on me, and now it's given me such an "extreme" detective!
But after laughing, I suddenly pressed the point allocation button and directly added all 5 points to strength!
"Saint War" is different from "Faith", most of the weapons do not have any point requirements. Since my own power level is so high, I might as well play with violent aesthetics from the start! Moreover, in "Saint War", movement and micro-operations account for a large proportion, when I played mage before, I was often forced to rely on movement to dodge monsters, let alone now that I'm playing a scout. Besides, if you can kill your opponent with one punch, they won't have the chance to force you to move around.
After adding up the points and taking another look at his attributes, he found that they had undergone a subtle change.
Not ordinary
Race: Human
Occupation: Scout
Level: 1
Blood Volume: 30
Physical Attack: 45
Physical Defense: 0
Magic Defense: 0

……
My power level is 9, so after adding all 5 points of strength, the attack power I get in return is naturally 9 x 5. As for constitution, this indicator, every time you add one point, it's equivalent to multiplying the file number by 5. Moreover, even if I don't add constitution, each level of the system will automatically give me an additional 6 x 5 = 30 points of life value, which is also a common rule in many online games.
At this time, a beast-like panting sound had already come from behind. Turning back to look, I was shocked by the monster in front of me. It was a creature about waist-high, with a body covered in gray fur, strong limbs, and a broad forehead, resembling a small bear cat.
Before it could react, I instinctively kicked it with a reflexive motion. The force of the kick sent it flying high into the air, tumbling out of control for over five meters before crashing to the ground with a loud thud, never to get up again!
"Critical hit 94!"
"Ding!" System prompt: "You killed a Brug training soldier and gained 5 experience points!"
"Hmm, nice, a great start. The first small monster I encountered after entering 'Holy War' was actually taken down by me so easily."
I took two steps forward and kicked away its corpse, finding two dark red copper coins quietly lying on the ground. I picked them up with a smile and put them into my pouch.
At this time, another one refreshed beside me!
My fist immediately struck out, and at the same time swept a glance over its attributes——
Bruges Training Camp
Rank: Common Monster
Level: 1
Blood Volume: 90
Physical Attack: 3~5
Physical Defense: 7
Magic Defense: 5
Skills: None
……
Buggs, a small monster that is widely distributed throughout the continent of Illinois, with a large population. Due to their low intelligence and strong slave nature, they are enslaved by higher-ranking species such as half-beasts and wolfmen, becoming their slaves, mainly serving as cannon fodder, porters, construction workers, etc.
This punch of mine has passed, and the man in front of me, a Brugge native, was beaten by me to stumble continuously, looking comical and laughable.
“47！”
It bared its teeth and pounced on me, scratching my chest with its front paws!
I didn't dodge, I just felt a burning sensation in my chest!
“7！”
I immediately kicked out one foot and directly kicked it flying!
“49！”
Haha, so fast, two hits and you're dead!
A golden light has poured down like a waterfall!
"Ding Dong!" System notification: "Congratulations! You have leveled up to level 2!"
It seems that adding points with all one's might is quite cool, if the premise can quickly raise one's level and wear high-grade equipment. In this case, I can always add points with all my might, whether it's killing monsters or PK, the attack power is absolutely not to be underestimated!
Without hesitation, I immediately allocated all 5 upgraded points to strength. As a result, my attack power has now increased to 90 points!
At this moment, the players around have begun to increase.
Even in the front area, some people have already started to grab monsters. No way, people all have a bad nature, everyone wants to quickly raise their level at the initial stage of the game.
I didn't even have time to pick up the strange drop, and with swift steps I rushed towards the several Brugge training soldiers that had refreshed around me, "Pak Pak Pak Pak Pak" a series of rapid punches like raindrops!
These Brugge training soldiers are tragic, they didn't even have time to look at the world before being refreshed again and turning back into data.
Experience points are also rising crazily in my rapid monster killing. Before long, my level has reached 3.
At this time, I picked up the drops of those small monsters that I killed just now. Unfortunately, after killing nearly seven or eight small monsters, not even a single piece of equipment was seen.
The players around me also gathered together. I didn't have the energy to play with them here, so one person walked towards the small stream in front of us.
I opened up the map and found that there was a small village not far ahead, called Irusa Village. This village was the so-called newbie village.
Along the way, I looked for NPCs everywhere. It's a good habit to greet them, whether it's in the early or mid-to-late game. On one hand, it shows that we are civilized and polite. On the other hand, it's also for receiving quests, because the rewards from completing quests are often very generous, much better than just killing monsters.
The two sides of the path were all farmland, but there were giant locusts everywhere in the farmland. They were all emerald green and as long as ordinary people! Each one was frantically chewing on the crops in the field. Those crops suffered a disaster, with half of the wheat stalks already broken and the wheat ears falling to the ground.
I took a glance at the attributes of these pests——
Locusts in the fields
Rank: Common Monster
Level: 3
Blood Volume: 350
Physical Attack: 12~15
Physical Defense: 25
Magic Defense: 20
Skills: Combo
……
What a coincidence, I happened to see an old farmer sighing on the edge of the wheat field. He had white whiskers and looked haggard, as if he was exhausted from dealing with these locusts. On top of his head was a row of green words - [Farmer Alnour].
I walked over and greeted the farmer with a "Hey, old man, need any help?"
Arnold looked at me as if I were the neighbor's boy, "Go, kid, help me get rid of these crop-eating bastards!"
"Ding Dong!" System Prompt: "Do you accept the task [Eliminate Field Pests]?"
He couldn't help but click confirm. The task content also popped out -
【Eliminate Field Pests】: Due to the locust plague this year, a large area in the northern part of the Saino Kingdom has been affected. As a brave warrior about to embark on the holy war journey, please kill 15 field grasshoppers. After completing the task, report back to Farmer Alnorn to receive a generous reward. Task difficulty: Ordinary 8th level.
This task is divided into five levels from easy to difficult: normal, D-level, C-level, B-level, A-level, and S-level. The further back it goes, the more each level is divided into 9-1, with larger numbers indicating lower difficulty and vice versa.
The difficulty of ordinary 8th grade is not very big, and it's completely manageable.
As I was speaking, I had already started working and ran in front of a grasshopper, immediately giving it a flying kick!
