The fireball detonated, and the fifteen wild boars behind Lucas instantly turned to ashes.
Their health points were only 150.
With a single strike, Bella turned them all to dust.
The flames dissipated.
Lucas emerged from the blaze.
Teammates don't inflict damage on each other. In fact, even without teaming up, you won't accidentally harm other players.
Unless Bella turned on the red-name killing mode, which allows indiscriminate attacks on other players.
"Well done."
Bella was a naturally talented player. She just didn't realize that she had a strong combat intuition.
Also, Bella had exceptional calculation skills. A net-addicted girl who got into Tsinghua University must be exceptionally talented.
Lucas had noticed Bella's talent in his first life but, considering her studies, he didn't let her get too addicted to the game.
In the end, his sister sacrificed herself for him in the later stages of the game, which was one of Lucas's most painful memories.
As for the next two lives.
Lucas chose a solo approach. For various reasons, it was inconvenient to bring Bella along, so he still neglected her training.
As the memories flashed, Lucas shook his head, stopping himself from dwelling on the memories of his past life.
When he first reincarnated, Lucas was often haunted by memories, losing too much and wanting to protect everything.
Now, Lucas had gained clarity. He had returned precisely to change all of this.
If he failed once, he would try again, and again.
There was no need to keep suffering, nor was it necessary to keep looking only at the future and the distance ahead. Paying attention to what was nearby was good, too.
"Waaaah! Help me! Save me, big boss!"
After Lucas solved the fifteen wild boars, a player wearing red clothes and carrying a huge sword on his back cried out and rushed toward Lucas.
Behind him, a wild boar with red eyes followed closely.
Player name: "Dauntless"
"Just as I thought."
He was planning on looking for him later but, unexpectedly, he came on his own.
Although Lucas was reincarnated and knew the information of the players, he couldn't know every player's actions after entering the game.
Lucas saw that the wild boar behind him was low on health.
He directly used Arcane Flash, adding two basic attacks at the same time.
-15 -22 -18
The three hits landed almost simultaneously, and with a thud, the wild boar following Dauntless fell to the ground, gradually turning to ashes.
Lucas turned his head: "Hey! Dauntless, the wild boar chasing you is dead!"
Dauntless was still running. Only after hearing Lucas's shout did he turn his head.
Sure enough, the wild boar chasing him was gone.
Smack—
Before Lucas could even react, Dauntless hugged Lucas's leg.
"Big Boss! You must be a big boss! Please carry me!"
Seriously.
He had heard that Dauntless was very embarrassing early on, but he didn't expect him to be this embarrassing.
The corners of Lucas's mouth twitched slightly.
"Get up quickly. I'll carry you."
Dauntless immediately got up. Bella walked over, her face showing some hesitation and awkwardness.
"Brother, this... is he your friend?"
"No, I just met him."
"However, let's team up with him to level up."
Dauntless was also the owner of an S-rank talent, and the top Warrior talent among the S-ranks. He was a character that Lucas planned to bring into the guild.
"Really? You're really willing to carry me?"
"Yes."
"But the prerequisite is that you have to join my guild."
Dauntless was a complete newbie. Although he had an S-rank talent, he didn't understand the value of this talent.
In Epochal World, such newbies could only be described as comparable to giant pandas.
After all, with the popularity of Epochal World, even if they hadn't played it, they must have heard about the various rumors about Epochal World.
Thanks to Dauntless being a pure newbie, now was the best time to trick him into joining the guild.
Otherwise, it would be too late when he realized the value of his S-rank talent.
He couldn't offer any good conditions. Other major guilds would casually throw out checks for millions, or offer monthly salaries of millions.
The only thing he could offer was his debt of 500 million.
He couldn't possibly say to Dauntless, "Brother, I'll leave this debt of 500 million to you."
Faced with Lucas's request.
"Okay! Joining a guild is not a problem!"
Dauntless agreed without thinking.
"However, I might not be able to beat these monsters..."
"It's okay. Just stay on the side and wait to level up. Once you reach level 5, we'll go for the Ashwood Forest first clear. That's when you'll need to contribute."
"First clear? What's that?"
Hearing this question, the corners of Lucas's mouth twitched. As expected of a newbie, he didn't even know what a first clear was.
Lucas sent a team invitation to Dauntless. Dauntless still knew how to team up, and directly joined the team.
"Bella, charge up."
Lucas moved and continued to pull wild boars. To get the first clear, they needed not only strength, but also time.
The other guilds wouldn't be slow either.
"I'll explain to you what a first clear is on the way."
Lucas repeated his old trick, pulling a group of wild boars to chase him.
After having one experience, Bella had become familiar with this strategy.
Bella herself had a decent gaming talent.
After seeing it once, she could basically understand most of it.
[Channeled Incantation – Fireball (4 seconds)]
Boom boom boom boom—
-303 -320 -312 -314 -321 ...
[You have killed - Wild Boar (Level 1) - Obtained Experience: 11] [You have killed - Wild Boar (Level 1) - Obtained Experience: 11] [You have killed - Wild Boar (Level 1) - Obtained Experience: 11] ...
In just five seconds, another dozen wild boars lay on the ground.
Lucas didn't delay at all, and immediately turned to pull the next batch of wild boars, Arcane Flash pulled out a "<" shaped fold line.
An Assassin's small movement skill was played with brilliance in Lucas's hands.
And Bella's job was much easier.
All she needed to do was stand still, charge up, and bombard.
Boom boom boom boom—
-313 -328 -314 -322 -323 ...
[You have killed - Wild Boar (Level 1) - Obtained Experience: 11] [You have killed - Wild Boar (Level 1) - Obtained Experience: 11] [You have killed - Wild Boar (Level 1) - Obtained Experience: 11] ...
And so on.
After eight consecutive bombardments, Lucas's team had killed approximately 100 wild boars.
The time it took was only a little over a minute. This efficiency made the other players numb.
They even forgot to level up, staring blankly at Lucas's team.
Piles and piles of wild boars were bombarded and killed.
"Who is that Bella girl?"
"Her Fireball power is too great, right? Does she have an S-rank talent?"
"S-rank talent? I remember if you find an S-rank talent holder and report it to the guild, there's a reward you can get."
"Yes, yes! I remember if you find an S-rank talent holder without a guild, you can get a bonus of 5,000 yuan if the situation is real. That's a month's salary for me!"
"Hehe, fools are still discussing it, smart people have already started contacting the talent department of the big guilds."
"Speaking of which, have they already achieved the hidden condition?"
After just a little over a minute, after killing a full 115 wild boars, Lucas didn't delay at all, and took Bella and Dauntless back towards Maple Glade.
Not giving other players a chance to disturb him, after refusing a few players' friend and team invitations, Lucas and others had already entered the city, and quickly came to the guide.
"Deliver the task."
[You have completed the task - Clearing the Wild Boars in the Suburbs] [You have reached an additional condition - The number of wild boars cleaned has reached 100] [You have obtained the task hidden reward - You have obtained Experience: 3000, Copper Coins: 500] [Congratulations on your level increased to: 5]
Clearing 100 wild boars was the fastest way to reach level 5.
When the first server opened for the first 10 days, this hidden task was discovered.
Up until later generations, this has been the fastest level 5 speed-up formula.
Lucas finished the task, and then immediately went to the guild administrator.
"Register a guild."
The guild administrator smiled and said, "You have already registered, but haven't activated a guild - Guild Name: Godslayer"
"Do you want to pay 100 copper coins to activate it?"
"Activate."
Lucas handed over 100 copper coins.
[You have activated the guild - Godslayer] [You have obtained the identity - President of the Godslayer Guild, you have activated the talent - Eternal Sovereign]
