Initial Training

Unlike conventional weapons, these gloves were part of the defensive set, so the slot it occupied was on the glove, not the weapon.

Punching the air to see how it felt, Lin Yun was surprised at how incredible it felt.

"It feels like I'm in real life, the feeling is almost the same. The creators of this game are incredible"

CRACK… CRACK…

Punching the straw doll, the sound of something breaking is heard. It was no different from straw being broken in real life.

Lin Yun punched and kicked as if he were attacking a bag of sand hanging from the ceiling.

"The attack power of the glove is the lowest among all weapons, on the other hand, it is the fastest. The kicks are also efficient, but the damage is so little that it only serves to hinder the opponent."

While reading the tutorials, some players talk about how similar the game is to real life, players can use their hands and legs to cause damage or disrupt opponents such as kicking the legs and knocking the target off balance.

A barrage of punches and kicks hit the straw doll for several minutes.

Lost in the feeling of adrenaline, Lin Yun didn't even see that his Hunger points were falling rapidly.

The system issued some warnings, but he paid no attention and continued attacking frantically. And one or another of these warnings is not about Hunger, but the increase in one of the attributes.

ding… ding…

"+1 STR"

"+1 AGI"

In a few moments, the screen went dark and he returned to the central square.

"The player is under the novice restrictions, there will be no penalty for death"

Hunger: 100

Hunger points returned to normal after the player's death.

Normally, it would only be twenty-five, a quarter of the original. But the new players have these benefits.

Lin Yun read it in the tutorial, so he didn't worry about this matter, at least for the first week.

Before the seven-day penalty ended, he wanted to try to receive at least the passive skills that were possible to receive in the training camp, Fist Mastery and Leg Mastery. The normal one was just one because of the weapon used, but since Lin Yun uses his fists and legs, they are two passive skills that can be gained. And a special attribute, Perseverance. And the secret reward for completing the initial training.

The punches and kicks continue to hit the scarecrow like rain.

Lin Yun wanted to receive the skills as quickly as possible, so he just attacked without caring about the hunger points falling like a waterfall.

Within a few minutes, the Hunger points dropped to zero again and Lin Yun returned to the central square, where he heard the same warning again.

Again, he returned to the scarecrows to attack.

The system sounds keep playing whenever something important happens.

ding… ding…

"+1 VIT"

"+1 STR"

In the middle of the seventh hail of attacks, the system finally announced what he had been waiting for.

ding… ding…

"You have learned the skill: Fist Mastery"

"You have learned the skill: Leg Mastery"

Fist Mastery (Passive)(Beginner I Level 1 - 0%) - Increases the attack power of the fists by 1%.

Leg Mastery (Passive)(Beginner I Level 1 - 0%) - Increases the attack power of the legs by 1%.

Unlike the vast majority of race skills, there were some exceptions, acquired or class skills have another way of improvement besides leveling up. They have something called stage, beginner, intermediate, advanced, master, and expert. Each stage has a bigger increase in power than the previous one.

"I finally got both skills, but I'm still missing the Perseverance attribute and the secret reward. Poor players' beginnings are really difficult…" Lin Yun muttered softly before continuing to attack the scarecrow.

The other players on the training ground did the same as him, madly attacking the scarecrow to get the skills, extra attribute points, and the secret reward.

The more humble players who are trying to make money need to have stronger characters, but without having the same level and equipment, so they have to have better attributes and skills. Therefore, it was necessary to invest more time in the initial areas before starting the real adventure.

Lin Yun was not the only one who died countless times on the training ground, several others did the same.

The poor players's tutorial put a lot of emphasis on the beginning of the game to create a strong foundation for the character.

trim!!!! trim!!!!

During the scarecrow's beating, an alarm clock rang, waking Lin Yun up.

"Is it morning yet? That was very fast!!! Or am I just too focused and didn't notice the time passing?"

"I better get out and go to work, I can't get fired or have my salary reduced for the next six months." Despite his discouragement and reluctance, Lin Yun left the game for another day of work at the restaurant.

And he only returned in the late afternoon for a few more days beating and kicking the scarecrow.

For the next five days, Lin Yun and a few other players keep attacking and dying before returning to the same place.

ding… ding…

"You have received the special attribute, Perseverance"

"+1 Perseverance"

Perseverance: Special attribute that increases the Hunger status drop interval.

"Now, all that's left is the special reward" Lin Yun became more excited when he heard the system notification, his punches and kicks were faster.

ding… ding…

"+1 STR"

"+1 AGI"

"+1 VIT"

"+1 INT"

Attribute points slowly increase one by one until he has reached twenty points in STR, eighteen in AGI, fifteen in VIT, and nine in INT. Each of the attributes improved greatly in just five days.

At the end of the sixth day of arduous training, the final reward finally came.

ding… ding…

"Congratulations on your hard work, as a reward, you have received a Rookie Weapon Box" The system announced.

"You have received the title: One who has completed basic training"

Rookie Weapon Box: When opened, choose one of the following weapons.

Title: One who has completed basic training - Received by only those who have completed initial camp training.

Effect: None

"Skill leveled up: Fist Mastery(Beginner)(Level 4 - 0%): Increases the attack power of fists by 4%"

"Skill leveled up: Leg Mastery(Beginner)(Level 4 - 0%): Increases the attack power of fists by 4%"

Opening the box, a list of weapons appears.

Lin Yun didn't even need to look to decide which one to choose, his choice was the pair of metal gloves.

Unlike the previous gloves, which were placed in the slot in the defensive set, this one was placed in the weapon slot.

Steel Glove: A pair of gloves forged from steel.

Type: Knuckles

+15 Atk

The two gloves are different item types, so the slots they occupy are also different.

PANG!!!! PANG!!!!

The attack power of the Steel Glove is relatively higher than the Gloves before, the sound of straw breaking became louder to hear.

For the next five hours, Lin Yun continued punching and kicking to try and get yet another hidden skill, or two in his case.

Something he discovered after researching more about the initial training camp on the official forums during his lunch break at the place where he works.

ding… ding…

"You have received the skill: Iron Fist"

"You have received the skill: Steel Leg"

Fist Mastery (Passive)(Beginner I Level 4 - 0%)

Leg Mastery (Passive)(Beginner I Level 4 - 0%)

Iron Fist(Passive)(Beginner I Level 1 - 0%)

Iron Leg(Passive)(Beginner I Level 1 - 0%)

Lin Yun's stats were very high for a level 1 player, even those who were close to level 10 wouldn't have as many attribute points as him. Unless they are crazy people like him who spent almost a week on the training ground beating up the scarecrows.

Looking at twenty-one hunger points, Lin Yun went back to attacking the scarecrows only to die and return to one hundred points.

On the next return to the square central, Lin Yun finally began his adventure.
