It was night.
Around ten o'clock, Xin Zhongze and Xu Muyan went to sleep.
As for the two children, one slept with their maternal grandmother and the other with their maternal aunt.
Under these circumstances, with no one to disturb them, Xin Zhongze and Xu Muyan fought a passionate and satisfying battle.
After the battle, Xu Muyan took a quick shower and then fell into a deep sleep.
When Xu Muyan was sound asleep, it was just past midnight.
After Xu Muyan was sound asleep, Xin Zhongze went to the guest room alone and locked the door from the inside.
Enter the game.
Upon arriving in the guest room, Xin Zhongze directly chose to enter the game.
As soon as he entered the game, Xin Zhongze appeared in the Novice Village.
Although the Novice Village no longer had a barrier protecting it, most of the nearby monsters had been killed by players, so no monsters entered the village.
After entering the game, Xin Zhongze found the weapon shop owner to repair his weapon, then found the clothing store owner to repair his cloth armor, and only then did he run out of the village.
Upon reaching outside the village, Xin Zhongze ran for several minutes before he saw any monsters.
The monsters outside the Novice Village were still primarily Demonic Corpses.
However, as Xin Zhongze continuously killed monsters in one direction, he quickly discovered different monsters.
Demonic Corpse (Level 2, HP 200, Attack 10, Defense 7, Speed 11, Skill: Infection...)
It was a Level 2 Demonic Corpse, which greatly surprised Xin Zhongze.
The Level 2 Demonic Corpse had doubled its HP, increased its attack by 2 points, its defense by 2 points, and its speed by 1 point.
Xin Zhongze should be able to handle such stats easily.
As Xin Zhongze expected, as a Level 3 player, with his speed reaching 15 points, he was able to kill Level 2 Demonic Corpses with almost no damage.
However, to Xin Zhongze's regret, killing a Level 2 Demonic Corpse only gave him 0.5 experience points per monster.
And overall, the speed of gaining experience from killing Level 2 Demonic Corpses was even slower than killing Level 1 Demonic Corpses.
After all, Level 1 Demonic Corpses only had 100 HP, and their defense was lower.
However, Xin Zhongze did not go back to kill Level 1 Demonic Corpses; instead, he chose to continue killing Level 2 Demonic Corpses.
The main reason he did this was that he wanted to get equipment drops.
Level 2 monsters were always more likely to drop equipment than Level 1 monsters.
Just as Xin Zhongze killed the 56th Level 2 Demonic Corpse, an item of equipment indeed dropped.
gold necklace: Requires Level 2, Physical Attack 0-1, Agility +1, Durability 8, Weight 1.
Xin Zhongze did not hesitate and immediately equipped the Level 2 equipment.
Half an hour later, Xin Zhongze got another equipment drop, which was another cloth armor.
Xin Zhongze was currently Level 3, so he could wear three identical pieces of clothing.
So, without hesitation, he immediately equipped the clothing.
At this moment, Xin Zhongze was already wearing two pieces of cloth armor, one necklace, and three ebony swords.
At this point, Xin Zhongze's character panel also changed to this:
【Name: Xin Zhongze.
Profession: Mage.
Level: 3 (142.5 / 300)
HP: 300 / 300.
Attack: 5 (12-25).
Magic Attack: 5 (0-3).
Defense: 5 (4-4).
Magic Defense: 5 (0-2).
Agility: 15 (+1).
Spirit: 10.
Weight: 47 / 60
Unique Ability: Equipment slots stack infinitely.
Equipment:
ebony sword (Level Requirement 1, Attack 12-24, Durability 21, Weight 8.).
cloth armor: (Male, Requires Level 1, Defense 6-6, Magic Defense 0-3, Durability 15, Weight 5.).
gold necklace: (Requires Level 2, Physical Attack 0-1, Agility +1, Durability 8, Weight 1.).
...】
At this moment, Xin Zhongze's strongest attack had reached 30 points, and his physical defense had also reached 9 points.
This meant that if a monster's attack power did not reach 9 points, it wouldn't even break his defense when hitting Xin Zhongze.
Of course, monsters had skills, for example, the Demonic Corpse's skill could double its attack and also cause continuous bleeding, so Xin Zhongze couldn't directly confront the monsters.
Just as Xin Zhongze was grinding monsters outside the village.
Suddenly, two figures appeared in the village.
These were two 22-year-old youths, and upon their appearance, their first action was to cautiously scan their surroundings.
Seeing that there was no danger around, the two relaxed.
Soon, the two walked towards the outside of the village.
"It's so quiet!" one youth exclaimed as he walked.
"Yes, everyone has exited the game, so it's naturally very quiet."
"Our Novice Village is probably the Novice Village with the most survivors since the game was released, right?"
"Yes, I heard that someone discovered the Novice Village barrier and learned that the barrier only lasted for one day."
"It's a pity that our memories are blocked after we exit the game, otherwise, if it were announced, the whole world would probably be shocked."
"Heh heh, if memories weren't blocked after exiting the game, everyone would probably try to make a living in the game, and in that case, our Federal 36 Great Families wouldn't be able to lord over the Federation."
"Your Shen Ancestor is a Sixth-Tier powerhouse; I guess even missiles can't harm him anymore, right?"
"I don't know either, but my dad said he's very strong. At least on Earth, if my ancestor wants to kill someone, no one can stop him."
"That's great. My ancestor is only Fifth-Tier; I wonder when he'll be able to break through to Sixth-Tier."
"Huh? Someone's fighting monsters ahead."
Just as the two arrived outside the village, preparing to look for monsters to kill, suddenly, one of the youths caught sight of someone seemingly fighting monsters in the distance.
"Is that a disciple from some family? Why is he alone?" the other youth asked in surprise.
"Let's go, let's take a look."
The two quickly ran forward.
On the other side, Xin Zhongze had just killed a Level 2 Demonic Corpse when he saw two people quickly running towards his location.
Seeing this, Xin Zhongze stood still, wanting to see who the other party was.
Soon, the two people arrived in front of Xin Zhongze.
"Brother, which family are you from?" one youth asked Xin Zhongze.
"Which family?" Xin Zhongze asked in surprise.
"It seems he's not from our 36 Great Families," one youth said indifferently.
"Who are you?" Xin Zhongze asked the two; their words sounded a bit strange to him.
"You don't know the Federal 36 Great Families?" one youth asked Xin Zhongze.
"Should I?" Xin Zhongze retorted.
Hearing this, the two youths exchanged glances.
Immediately, both of them simultaneously attacked Xin Zhongze.
Each of them held an ebony sword, and with tacit cooperation, they suddenly attacked Xin Zhongze.
Seeing the two youths suddenly attack him, Xin Zhongze, in great alarm, hastily retreated.
"What are you doing?" Xin Zhongze reprimanded.
"Heh heh, since you're just an ordinary person, then you can only die."
