Chapter 5 - Adventure, Departure!

The sky outside the window was shining with stars. As time passed, the stars continued to draw trails in the sky before gradually submerging in the horizon.

They seemed to be a little tired after guarding all night.

The original darkness gradually faded until a hint of dawn appeared on the horizon, and the dimness that covered half the sky quickly ended.

After a night of careful consideration, Su Ce became more and more determined in taking the risk.

Even though the road ahead was full of unknowns and dangers, he still had reasons to go.

He didn't want his sister to be too tired and work overtime every day because of him.

He didn't want to give up the chance to find his parents. He dreamed of a family reunion.

The prerequisite to doing all of this was to be strong enough.

When he became a true Dragon Tamer, he would be able to let his sister enjoy the feeling of being protected.

He would be able to enter the dungeon that his parents had been to and find their traces.

Of course, the prerequisite for all of this was that he was strong enough.

With determined thoughts and goals in mind, Su Ce immediately put on his coat and quietly opened the door.

After passing by his sister's room, he looked at the closed door and heaved a sigh of relief.

Su Ce was really worried about what his sister would feel if she knew that he was going to take the risk of going to the mine.

At the same time, he didn't want his sister to worry about him.

It was precisely because of this that Su Ce chose to set off for the mine before dawn.

He tiptoed past his sister's door, planning to leave quietly.

But when Su Ce walked into the living room, he suddenly found a set of clothes piled on the dining table in the living room. Beside the clothes was a white note!

The moment he saw these things, his pupils constricted.

He quickly walked up. When he found the note full of his sister's handwriting, tears welled up in his eyes!

A'Ce, I know that I can't make you stay. Instead of making your life full of regrets, it's better to go with the flow and let you follow your heart's choice.

Perhaps the genes of adventure have long flowed through our family's bloodline. Throughout the countless days and nights I worked as a seamstress, I have also been constantly fantasizing about an exciting adventure of my own in a parallel universe.

No matter what you want to do, I will always support you unconditionally. Go and do things that you won't regret in your future life!

I will always love, your sister.

Looking at the beautiful handwriting on the note, Su Ce's eyes were full of tears.

He was touched. Not only did his sister not blame him for awakening as a Dragon Tamer, but she even gave him unconditional support and understanding.

The softness in his heart was pricked, and Su Ce sighed emotionally.

He swore that he would become a powerhouse that everyone looked up to in the future and return the favor he had received to his sister a thousand times over.

Su Ce wiped away the tears from the corners of his eyes and caressed the clothes sewn by his sister. Looking at the stitching marks on them, he was extremely touched.

He knew that as a seamstress, his sister couldn't afford a full set of clothes with magical attributes.

These were definitely a set of equipment that she had made from leftover scraps that her customers didn't need.

He could imagine that his sister had already been preparing for his future battles as early as a few months.

At the same time, on countless quiet nights, she had spent a long time sewing under the light of the table lamp to make this set of clothes.

Su Ce's nose felt a little sour. At the same time, this also strengthened his determination to become stronger!

After putting on the equipment, he immediately pushed open the door and walked out firmly.

[Prompt: Obtained Iron-Quality Equipment x3.]

Additional Attributes: Blessing (Luck +1)

Additional Attributes: Excellent Craftsmanship (Maximum Durability +10)

[Medicinal Leather Shoes]

Additional Attributes: Anti-Epidemic (Poisoned Duration -10%)

Looking at the attribute windows of the three pieces of equipment that appeared in front of him, Su Ce immediately became surprised.

He didn't expect his sister's sewing skills to have improved so much.

Last year, his sister could only help others repair the durability of their equipment. But now, she could start to make equipment made of cloth, leather, and other materials.

His sister's hard work in life was not inferior to his obsession with his studies.

After walking out of the urban village, Su Ce immediately rushed to the nearest bus stop.

It was only about 6:10 a.m., and the sky was not bright yet. Other than the cleaners in uniforms sweeping the ground, there was almost no one on the streets.

He tightened his collar and hurried on with his head lowered.

About twenty minutes later, he finally boarded the bus to the western suburbs.

"Beep. Payment is $20."

Su Ce took out his phone, scanned the QR code, and paid the fare. Then he immediately sat down in the corner of the bus by the window.

As soon as he sat down, he heard a few Professionals chatting in front of him.

"This is my first time going to the mine so early. I hope we can kill a few more green-skin corpses this time. At the very least, I have to earn back the money I spent on buying equipment two days ago."

The person who spoke was a man in his thirties wearing bronze armor. He rubbed his hands excitedly, as if he couldn't wait to start battling monsters.

A thin man with long hair and a scimitar immediately thought otherwise. "Those undead creatures are too difficult to deal with. They have high HP and physical resistance. We don't have any Mages in our team. It's too time-consuming to fight those things."

"I agree with you, buddy. Maybe it would be better to farm those frosttooth bats." A middle-aged man with a black cloak and sharp eyes joined the discussion.

Hearing their discussion, Su Ce immediately looked at the three people not far away and carefully investigated them.

The three-man team was an all physical damage team. They were a Warrior, an Assassin, and an Archer.

Relying on their high mobility and physical attacks, this team killed monsters extremely quickly. Moreover, because they walked the path of pure physical damage output, they could deal with most elite monsters and bosses more quickly, avoiding the risk of others snatching their monsters.

But this type of team also had an irreparable shortcoming. They were very weak when facing monsters with high physical resistance.

However, there were not many types of these monsters in the mine in the western suburbs. Most of them were wild beasts and insects.

There were only a few times when people would encounter monsters with high resistance to elemental damage and non-corporeal monsters that were completely immune to physical damage.

In Su Ce's opinion, the three Professionals in front of him were all above Level 10, so even if they encountered monsters that were difficult to deal with, they could still easily escape.
