Chapter 5: upgrade

“Wife, it’s your turn to kill monsters now. You should use this ebony sword.” Xin Zhongze traded the ebony sword to Xu Muyan.

“I’ll just use the Wooden Sword; you use the ebony sword yourself.” Xu Muyan waved her hand, canceling the trade.

“I’ve used it enough. You should use it. Trade your Wooden Swords to me.” Xin Zhongze initiated another trade with Xu Muyan.

“Alright then.”

Seeing Xin Zhongze’s persistence, Xu Muyan did not continue to refuse. She directly traded two Wooden Swords for Xin Zhongze’s ebony sword.

After Xin Zhongze received Xu Muyan’s Wooden Swords, he now had three Wooden Swords.

Without hesitation, Xin Zhongze directly equipped two Wooden Swords.

Xin Zhongze’s unique ability was that for every level he gained, he could equip one more of the same item.

In other words, after Xin Zhongze equipped one Wooden Sword, he could stack another Wooden Sword.

In this situation, Xin Zhongze appeared to be using one Wooden Sword, but he could obtain the attribute effects of two Wooden Swords.

After equipping two Wooden Swords, Xin Zhongze looked at his character panel and found that it had changed a lot.

Name: Xin Zhongze.

Profession: Mage.

Level: 2 (0/200)

Health: 200/200.

Attack: 5 (4-10).

Defense: 5.

Agility: 10.

Spirit: 10.

Weight: 22/55

Unique Ability: Infinite Equipment Stacking. (For every level gained, the equipment slot can stack one more of the same equipment and gain the attributes of all equipped items.)

Equipment: Wooden Sword (Level Requirement 1, Attack 4-10, Weight 7, Durability 8)

……

In Xin Zhongze’s character panel, after Xin Zhongze leveled up to 2, his experience value increased by one hundred points, reaching 200 points.

Then, his health also increased by 100, reaching 200.

Furthermore, after Xin Zhongze added 5 free attribute points to agility, his agility changed from 5 points to 10 points.

Then, his carrying capacity changed from 50 points to 55 points.

However, because he equipped a Wooden Sword, plus he had a dagger and 10 bottles of gold injury medicine in his backpack, his weight reached 22.

In other words, Xin Zhongze could still carry items weighing 33.

Finally, after Xin Zhongze equipped two Wooden Swords, his equipment slot attributes also changed.

Originally, the Wooden Sword’s attack was 2-5, and durability was 4. Now it became attack 4-10, durability 8, both increasing twofold.

And what was most surprising was that equipping two Wooden Swords did not change the weight; it was still only the weight of one Wooden Sword.

In other words, no matter how many weapons he equipped, the weight would only be calculated as one weapon, which was truly excellent.

……

“I’ll go lure monsters.”

After looking at his character panel, Xin Zhongze quickly left the barrier to lure monsters outside.

His agility now reached 10 points, the same as the Demonic Corpse.

Therefore, Xin Zhongze decided to lure two more at once.

Two minutes later, Xin Zhongze quickly ran towards the barrier. Behind him, three Demonic Corpses followed.

“Holy cow, brother, you run so fast?”

Nearby, some players were instantly surprised when they saw Xin Zhongze’s speed.

Xin Zhongze ignored them. He waited by the barrier for a moment, and when the three Demonic Corpses got close, he quickly flashed into the barrier.

“Attack quickly.”

As the Demonic Corpses approached the barrier, Xin Zhongze and Xu Muyan, the couple, quickly attacked.

Both of their base attacks were 5 points. After Xu Muyan got the ebony sword, she could deal 8 points of damage by attacking the Demonic Corpse’s head.

And Xin Zhongze, after equipping two Wooden Swords, his attack reached a maximum of 10 points.

In such a situation, on average, both of them only needed to stab 6 times to kill a Demonic Corpse.

This situation also made their monster-killing speed faster.

Of course, the most important thing was Xin Zhongze’s monster-luring speed. The reason it took an average of 7 minutes to kill a Demonic Corpse before was mainly because Xin Zhongze lured monsters too slowly.

Time flowed on.

Near the barrier, thousands of people were killing monsters in full swing.

Just as Xu Muyan killed the 41st Demonic Corpse.

“Wow! Another equipment dropped! It’s a piece of cloth armor!”

Xu Muyan quickly stepped forward to pick up the equipment.

cloth armor: (Female, Level Requirement 1, Defense 2-2, Magic Defense 0-1, Durability 5, Weight 5.)

“This cloth armor suits you perfectly.” Xin Zhongze said to Xu Muyan with a smile.

“Hmm, it’s women’s cloth armor, otherwise I’d give it to you.” Xu Muyan smiled and equipped the cloth armor.

The next moment, Xu Muyan put on a red, white, and blue cloth armor and skirt, looking much more beautiful.

“Wow! New equipment.”

People fighting nearby saw Xu Muyan’s cloth armor change and were instantly filled with envy.

For the rest of the time, Xin Zhongze continued to lure monsters, kill monsters, lure monsters, kill monsters.

When the weapon’s durability was low, Xu Muyan would go to the weapon shop to repair it.

Soon, seven hours passed.

“I leveled up.” Xu Muyan said to Xin Zhongze in surprise.

Because Xin Zhongze added agility to 10 points when he leveled up to 2, his efficiency in luring monsters greatly increased, which led to the couple killing monsters much faster.

In this situation, Xu Muyan only spent 7 hours to level up once.

“Husband, I gained 5 free attribute points. Where should I add them?” Xu Muyan asked Xin Zhongze.

“Add them to speed.” Xin Zhongze did not hesitate and directly told Xu Muyan to add them to speed.

Facing Demonic Corpses with 10 points of agility, only by increasing speed could one escape their pursuit.

“The game is prompting me that I can exit the game. Should we exit the game?” Xu Muyan asked Xin Zhongze again.

“Not yet, let’s wait until the barrier disappears.”

“Okay.”

“My agility is also ten points now. How about we both lure monsters together? Maybe we can kill them faster.” Xu Muyan suggested to Xin Zhongze.

Hearing Xu Muyan’s words, Xin Zhongze thought for a moment, then nodded.

“Okay, let’s lure them together, but be careful.”

After Xu Muyan leveled up, the two quickly began to go outside the barrier to lure monsters together.

Two minutes later, the two of them together lured five Demonic Corpses.

The two of them dealt with the five Demonic Corpses in just three minutes, which meant killing one on average per minute.

This speed was seven times faster than when Xin Zhongze initially killed one Demonic Corpse on average every 7 minutes.

However, what made Xin Zhongze frown was that after he leveled up to 2, when he killed Demonic Corpses again, the game only gave 0.5 experience points.

Based on needing 200 experience points to level from 2 to 3, he would need to kill 400 Demonic Corpses to level up.

“Continue.”

After killing the first batch of lured monsters, the two continued to lure monsters.

This time, the two lured 6 Demonic Corpses.

In about 5 minutes, the two had already killed all 6 Demonic Corpses.

“Perhaps, we can lure one more.” Xin Zhongze thought.

Two minutes later, Xin Zhongze lured 4 Demonic Corpses, and Xu Muyan also lured 3.

The efficiency of their monster luring and killing made the people fighting nearby envious.

“You two have both reached Level 2, right?” Someone asked Xin Zhongze.

“Yes! What’s wrong?”

“Did you both add your free attribute points to agility?”

“Yes!”

“I knew it! No wonder you two run so fast. If only I had added my attribute points to agility too. High agility makes luring monsters so much faster.”

The person who asked the question was filled with regret.

He had added his attributes to attack, and although this greatly increased his attack, his monster-luring speed was not fast, which led to his very slow monster-killing efficiency.
