The endless forest covered the sky and the sun.
Lin Yi and the others were in a carriage and had arrived at a slightly deeper part of Paro Forest.
As soon as they got off the carriage, everyone immediately felt a dangerous aura.
"Children, do you feel the aura of the monster?"
Dorman warned everyone,
"You must be 100% focused, because during the battle, unless your lives are in danger, I will not be involved!"
When fighting monsters, the people standing next to them would also share the experience points.
As a Level 3 Swordsman, if he didn't stand far away, these children wouldn't be able to get any experience points
His main duty was to protect the safety of this group of youths.
He had learned the healing skills unique to combat classes in the army.
Although it was not as good as a professional priest, it could still save lives at critical moments.
When necessary, he would give these Level 1 children a few mouthfuls of health points.
After hearing Dorman's words, the group of children rubbed their fists.
Especially Rael. Not only was he not afraid, but he was also filled with excitement.
He was the first mutated class in the entire town in eight years.
He could finally show off his skills!
Soon, the first monster appeared!
It crawled out of the ground and was about one meter tall. It looked like a pangolin.
The monster let out a low roar, seemingly dissatisfied with the group of human youths who had intruded into its territory.
"What are you waiting for? Go!"
Rael instructed the children beside him.
In the carriage just now, this group of children had already expressed that they wanted to follow Rael.
Their intention was to hug the thigh of the mutated class and gain some experience points with him.
For the time being, they were Rael's underlings.
Upon hearing the order, two youths and a young lady went into battle together.
The three of them were a Warrior, a Mage, and an Archer.
[Monster Name: Iron-armored Beast] (Level:1)
[Attack: 30]
[HP: 150]
[Introduction: A type of monster with very high defense armor. They are very difficult to kill with their thick skin, but their weakness is that their attack speed is very slow.]
The three of them launched a fierce attack.
A sword strike!
-15
A magic ball!
-13
An arrow!
-9
Even though the three of them had already cooperated with each other to launch a joint attack on the iron-armored beast.
However, the damage was so pitiful that it was like tickling the iron-armored beast.
Under such circumstances, the monster's health bar decreased extremely slowly.
Although the iron-armored beast's attack speed was very slow, one of the youths was still bitten by it.
In an instant, he lost more than 30 HP without any defensive equipment.
Rael shook his head as he watched from behind.
If this went on, by the time the monster died, the three of them would be crippled.
After all, each of them only had 100 HP.
"I can only make a move."
Rael also took out his novice dagger and glanced at Xiqin from the corner of his eye.
"Xiqin, watch carefully! My performance!"
"Lin Yi, this is my first step to surpassing you!"
[Rael] (Level 1)
[Class: Assassin] (Mutated: Shadow Reaper)
[Attack: 80]
[HP: 100]
[Talent: Invisibility, Insight, Agility, Hidden Weapon Proficiency]
Rael approached the iron-armored beast at an unbelievable speed. At the same time, the moment the monster saw him, he used his innate ability.
Stealth!
He went around to the monster's back.
The dagger directly avoided the armor of the iron-armored beast and hit the fatal spot on the back of its neck.
"Pfft-"
The sound of a sharp weapon piercing into flesh could be heard.
- 140
The iron armored beast let out a wail and its health bar was emptied. It was instantly killed by Rael.
The group of children immediately looked at Rael with admiration.
"That was so cool...Rael is too strong."
"A monster that couldn't be defeated by the three of them even after fighting for a long time...was actually killed by Rael in an instant."
The experience ball flew out, and all four of them received 5 experience points.
As the main killer, Rael received 20 experience points.
Everyone's obedience and respect toward Rael deepened.
Behind him, Dorman nodded.
Was Rael really the most outstanding among them?
As expected, a mutated profession could not be underestimated.
Not only was his natural attack power higher than others, but he could also rely on his keen insight to find the enemy's vital points in an instant.
With his invisibility ability, he would be able to deal damage that was several times higher than his own attack power!
Even with the most ordinary weapons.
"Although the Shadow Reaper's attack power is very strong, if I don't have a good weapon, my attack power will remain low."
Rael muttered to himself.
In this world, equipment played a decisive role in battle.
He decided that after this battle, he would buy a better piece of equipment.
As for enchanted equipment, he did not dare to think about it yet.
After all, that kind of thing was really too expensive!
More sounds came from the forest in the distance.
A few youths exclaimed,
"Rael, bad news. More monsters have appeared!"
A total of eight monsters similar to the iron-armored beast appeared.
Their levels were exactly the same, they were all Level 1.
It seemed like this was their colony.
With their meter-long bodies, eight of them lined up in a row, and they were already beginning to give off an oppressive feeling.
The difficulty of a group of iron-armored beasts was not as simple as a numerical increase.
"As expected of Paro Forest. There are so many monsters just after entering."
"This is going to be difficult. If I'm surrounded by them, I'll definitely be instantly killed."
The youths were all a little flustered, and no one dared to make a move.
Dorman stood on a tree behind them and watched the scene calmly.
"Children, don't be afraid."
"Don't forget, if you win, what kind of reward will you get!"
Dorman encouraged them, and the children suddenly felt as if they had been injected with energy.
The reward was St. Caesar Academy!
Clenching their weapons tightly, they decided to go all out!
Anyway, Dorman wouldn't leave them in the lurch.
The battle would be over right after they charged!
"Wait!"
Just as they were about to move, Rael's voice suddenly rang out.
He shouted at everyone to stop what they were doing. Then, he turned his head and looked at Lin Yi.
"Lin Yi, I'll leave this battle to you. How about it?"
"Didn't you kill the monster at the back of the mountain that harmed the village?"
"This group of Level 1 monsters should be nothing to you, right?"
Rael provoked coldly.
He subconsciously glanced at Xiqin.
If he could suppress Lin Yi and humiliate him in front of her.
Perhaps she would change her mind and fall in love with him.
Rael had calculated that as an enchanter, Lin Yi would not have much combat strength.
There was no way he would agree to this life-risking challenge.
"I..."
"Refuse."
As expected, Lin Yi quickly shook his head and refused to participate in the battle.
Rael instantly laughed. As expected.
Lin Yi acted exactly the way he thought he would.
He had no strength at all and had already given up on this experiential learning.
"Are you really not going to try?"
"No, I won't attack."
Lin Yi refused again.
