Chapter 38: Provocative effect

After much persuasion, Wei Kai finally convinced his parents that he had earned money.

As for how much… it wasn't convenient to discuss it outside.

And so, led by the female sales agent, Wei Kai purchased a high-rise residence near Xixiang University for 9.98 million.

"This is a ready-to-move-in property, right?" Wei Kai suddenly thought of a crucial question before swiping his card.

"Of course it is."

The female sales agent nodded, "As soon as you pay, you can move in tonight."

"That's good."

Wei Kai immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

In his previous life, countless people were scammed by pre-sale properties… Although this world was vastly different, what if there were unfinished buildings here too?

After swiping his card and paying, he waited another half an hour before the sales agent handed Wei Kai a set of keys, along with various certificates and the property deed.

"Mr. Wei, with these items, you and your family can move in tonight."

"Thank you!"

Wei Kai thanked her and then left with his parents.

It wasn't until they walked out of the sales office that Wei Yitong and Huang Liqiao's minds cleared.

"A'Kai, we've bought a house just like that?"

"Of course."

Wei Kai laughed heartily and said, "Didn't you just hear? You can move in tonight if you want to."

"Are we not keeping the underground house then?" Huang Liqiao asked.

"Why would we want it?"

Wei Yitong shook his head, "The underground houses are all allocated by the authorities, they're not ours. Once we move out, the authorities will naturally reclaim them…"

"We have to move the furniture, don't we?" Huang Liqiao said grumpily, "They're furniture we've used for over a decade; we're attached to them."

"They're all worn out…"

"Worn out, yet you've used them for over a decade too?"

"Alright, alright, move them if you want to!"

"Dad, Mom, listen to me…"

Seeing his parents arguing over the furniture, Wei Kai quickly intervened, "I'll take you to the new house first, and then I need to go out of the city to level up. You can discuss the moving arrangements yourselves."

For Wei Kai, his time was extremely precious, and he didn't want to waste a single moment on meaningless arguments.

Once he bought the house, his task was complete.

Next, he still needed to level up outside the city and coincidentally 'stock up' from wild monsters.

"Alright, alright."

Wei Yitong and Huang Liqiao nodded simultaneously.

Half an hour later, Wei Kai got off the bus and headed straight for the leveling zone outside the city.

This time, his target was still the Wild Boar Forest.

Because he had returned to the city early yesterday, his level remained at 6 with 74% experience.

The optimal leveling zone for this level was the Wild Boar Forest.

After all, not only did it have a large number of monsters, but it also had abundant All Item Drop… whether it was recipes or various ingredients, they were all hot commodities in the market.

Most importantly, there were also various bosses here!

Before level fifteen, Wei Kai still needed to kill another Wild Boar King to obtain those two pieces of equipment most suitable for him.

With the "All Item Drop" talent, Wei Kai wasn't worried about the drop rate at all.

However, according to official explanations, wild bosses usually respawn every three days.

So, within three days, he shouldn't expect to encounter the Wild Boar King or the White Tiger.

However, there was a chance he might encounter the Wolf King and the Monkey King in the forest.

A few minutes later, when Wei Kai entered the Wild Boar Forest, he found that quite a few people had already entered.

Most of these people were in groups, with at least three members per small team, and they were the classic "Warrior, Mage, Healer" lineup.

With so many people, there weren't enough monsters to go around.

As soon as a wild boar spawned, it was surrounded by three small teams and was killed in less than ten seconds.

The team that secured the last hit happily went to pick up the dropped items.

Those who didn't naturally grumbled and were in a foul mood.

If both sides had fiery tempers, they might even come to blows, engaging in passionate brawls until their heads bled.

Wei Kai only watched for five minutes and already spotted three teams passionately brawling.

So, he casually found a passerby and asked, "Brother, what's going on today? Why are there so many people?"

"They're here to farm recipes," the brother said with a sneer, "I heard that the drop rate here has significantly increased recently, and quite a few recipes have dropped, so everyone wants to try their luck…"

"This…" Wei Kai was speechless after hearing that.

Could it be because of me?

He had indeed farmed quite a few recipes here recently, and they had all been sold on the market through various channels.

Others might not know who farmed the recipes, but by looking at the recipe content, they would know it originated from the Wild Boar Forest.

Thus, they boldly speculated that the drop rate in the Wild Boar Forest had significantly increased recently… which then led to rumors and an increasing number of monster farmers.

"Forget it, I'll just go deeper into the forest to level up."

The outside was already occupied by teams of all sizes; if he dared to make a move, the dropped items would directly expose him.

At a time like this, Wei Kai didn't want to reveal his abilities.

It was better to find a quiet, uninhabited place to farm monsters.

After walking deeper into the forest for more than ten minutes, Wei Kai finally found a quiet spot with difficulty.

The forest here was dense, the light dim, and weeds grew everywhere. From time to time, chilling wolf howls could be heard from all directions.

"Awoo!"

Wei Kai opened his mouth and mimicked a wolf howl… Although it wasn't a perfect imitation, the effect of "Provocation" had already manifested.

Yes, this was his newly learned skill—Provocation!

Provocation was different from taunting.

Taunting relied on actions and damage… hitting a monster on the head with a stick would naturally make the monster chase and bite you.

Provocation, on the other hand, relied on sound, scent, and behavior.

For example, Wei Kai imitating a wolf howl was a Provocation specifically for wild wolves.

Imitating a monkey dancing or a monkey's call was a Provocation for monkeys.

"Woof woof!"

No sooner had Wei Kai's voice faded than a chilling howl came from the side, followed by continuous wolf howls, and countless green eyes appeared from all directions.

Seeing this, Wei Kai was stunned.

"Damn, this Provocation effect is too good."

Judging by the wolf howls coming from all directions, at least twenty wild wolves had been attracted.

This skill effect was really good!

"Woof!"

As soon as he finished speaking, several wild wolves leaped out of the bushes, opening their mouths to bite Wei Kai.

Wei Kai was already prepared, and immediately activated his strongest skill—Charge!

Bang!

The next second, the three charging wild wolves were instantly sent flying, turning into three streaks of white light before even hitting the ground.

Seeing this scene, the wolf howls in the bushes instantly died down.

A moment later, an even more piercing wolf howl echoed from afar.

"Awoooowooo!"

Whoosh!

Accompanied by the mournful wolf howls, a large number of wild wolves charged out from all directions, seemingly wanting to completely overwhelm Wei Kai.

"Bring it on!"

Wei Kai roared, brandishing his greatsword, "Whirlwind Slash!"
