Chapter 5: Occupational Treasure Chest, Physical Enhancement
It took a few minutes for Lin Kong to collect the materials.
[Hint: Your "Gathering" level has been raised to LV5.]
Gathering was a required skill. Before awakening his profession, his gathering level had peaked at level 4.
"Good harvest," Lin Kong muttered, satisfied with the items in his backpack. He then devoured the [Charge] skill book with his talent.
[Ding, your archery gains effect 3: After attacking, movement speed +1%, attack distance +0.5, bonus cleared after leaving combat.]
The bonus from the D-tier skill book wasn't high, but it could be stacked.
Bang! Bang!
More gray-sideburned wild boars approached. Lin Kong, holding his Blood Fang Longbow, started shooting.
Thwack, thwack, thwack!
Arrows hit their marks, sinking into the boars' eyes.
-134!
-181! (crit)
-86!
Lin Kong moved back while shooting, killing the boars before they could reach him.
[Ding! You kill the grey-sideburned boar and gain: 4 experience points.]
[Ding...]
After killing five boars, Lin Kong retreated to the tree. He climbed up and the boars slammed into the trunk below, unable to reach him.
From his vantage point, Lin Kong continued his attack, easily killing the remaining boars. The experience points met the requirement for an upgrade.
[You reach level 2 and gain 1 free attribute point.]
After some thought, Lin Kong added the attribute to strength.
Physical Attack: 66
Attack Distance: 21.2
Attack Speed: 2.51/s
Adding 1 point to agility would only increase attack speed by 0.1/s, which was inefficient.
Lin Kong collected two reward chests from the boar corpses. As he did, he heard a branch snap and looked up to see a group of pigmen professionals approaching.
"Professionals from the hostile faction?" Lin Kong's mouth curled into a smile. This was a great opportunity to score points. Killing enemy professionals increased the clearance score.
Instantly, he drew his Blood Moon Longbow.
"A mere level 2 professional dares to tempt us? He doesn't know what's good for him," one of the pigmen sneered.
"Human, feel the despair!" another taunted.
The pigmen spread out, blocking all exits. They were numerous and well-equipped, while Lin Kong appeared shabby by comparison. But he remained unfazed, quickly assessing the enemy configuration.
Eight melee, three ranged, one support. Their levels were generally LV2, with health between 600 and 900. Lin Kong decided he could handle them.
Resolutely, he attacked.
Precision Shot!
Regular shot!
Regular shot!
Three arrows hit the support worker in the chest.
-323!
-270!
-270!
[Hint: You kill the professional "N031258", Silvermoon City camp points +1.]
The pigman support fell, and the others hadn't yet reacted.
"My God! Dorus was taken down?!!" one exclaimed.
"Such high damage—does he have an S-level talent?" another wondered, their arrogance evaporating.
The enemy hesitated, a fatal mistake in a life-and-death struggle. Lin Kong seized the opportunity, shooting while retreating.
His strategy was simple: kill the support first, then the ranged, leaving the melee fighters vulnerable. In seconds, he had killed two ranged professionals.
"Kill him! We must kill him to survive!" the leader roared.
The pigmen professionals charged. They couldn't match Lin Kong's speed; running made them easy targets. They decided to fight to the death.
-266!
-116!
-166...
[Hint: You kill the professional "N031256", Silvermoon City camp points +1.]
[Hint...]
System prompts sounded as Lin Kong used kite tactics, shooting enemies from a distance. But one pigman finally reached him, raising a round shield.
"Die!" the pigman shouted, slamming the shield into Lin Kong. He raised his bow to block.
Bang!
The impact sent him flying, hitting the ground.
-45!
-15! (fall damage)
Lin Kong quickly stood, firing arrows at the last enemy's head, killing him.
[Number of kills this game: 12.]
[Silvermoon City faction points: 2582.]
Corpses littered the ground, each with a bright treasure chest. Killing enemy professionals guaranteed a drop.
"Hope to get something good," Lin Kong muttered, opening the 12 treasure chests.
[Ding! You get items: "Planar Coin x85", "Low-level Constitution Enhancement·D Rank" x3, "Acupuncture Ring"...]
He received nine pieces of equipment, including one C-tier ring.
[Sensitive Strike Ring]
Quality: C
Level: 2
Bonus: Attack +2, Strength +1, Agility +3
Special effect: Attack speed +3%
Occupation: General
Lin Kong equipped the ring.
Attack Speed: 2.51 → 2.77
Next, he examined the physical enhancement skill book. It was a general skill.
Lin Kong used the skill book.
[Ding, you have learned skill: Low-level Physical Enhancement·Passive, effect: Increase physical fitness by 10.]
"I wonder what effect my talent will get from devouring the passive skill book?" Lin Kong thought, devouring the other two skill books.
[Ding, your archery gains effect 4: After killing an enemy, your physique will permanently increase by 1, up to a limit of 20.]
His eyes lit up. This was excellent! It was like learning two more physical enhancements.
"In the previous battle, I lost a total of 95 health points. Time to heal up," he decided, drinking two blood recovery potions.
Kaijiao Forest was a contested area with many hostile players. To avoid accidents, Lin Kong made sure his health was full. It was always best to act cautiously.
Closing his panel, he ventured deeper into the forest, using [Fragrant Flower] to attract more gray-tempered wild boars.
In the forest, he set up ambushes, repeating his hunting strategy. He didn't open the treasure chests immediately, instead accumulating them.
Meanwhile, elsewhere in the forest, the Stars Guild team hunted monsters using a similar method. They cooperated to attract and kill monsters. Suddenly, the system prompts sounded.
[Hint: Professional Y035622 of your own camp killed an enemy camp player.]
[...]
Each prompt listed Lin Kong's kills. The Silvermoon City professionals could only stare in astonishment.
