Scrolling through the game forum, Reyker found that no one had posted about the distribution of monsters in the Novice Village.

However, based on his years of experience, Reyker could roughly tell the locations of the high-level monster areas.

To the south of the Novice Village was a tall mountain, and to the northwest was a river.

The beginner monsters were usually near the water, thus Reyker walked directly to the northwest.

On the way, he passed by many players who were going back or forth.

In general, Reyker could confirm that there was no problem with the direction that he was heading in.

At a distance of about 500 meters from the village, Reyker did not see a single monster.

It’s no wonder players were called the fourth natural disaster, not even a blade of grass was left!

With this, even if Reyker wanted to test his buff, he couldn’t.

After walking for more than 800 meters, Reyker finally saw a slime.

[ Slippery Slime ]

Level: 1

Attack: 5

Defense: 2

HP: 150

Skill: mucus attack

Evaluation: Be careful of their mucus, even by sliding around they can kill you!

Seeing the familiar monster, Reyker instantly laughed.

The feeling that what he was seeing coincided with his memory was very magical.

In the next moment, Reyker rushed forward.

Although he had obtained 100 copper coins from the first quest, it wasn’t even enough to buy a weapon.

At this moment, Reyker could only use his bare hands to fight the monster.

Taking advantage of the slime’s slow reaction, Reyker quickly approached it and landed a punch on the slime’s body.

“Pshh!”

[ -11! ]

[ -10! ]

[ -11! ]

[ -9! ]

Ever since the first punch landed on the slime’s body, the slime had been controlled by Reyker’s paralysis buff.

Following that, Reyker swung a few more punches which continuously paralyzed the slime.

Although Reyker’s attack speed was not fast, even an ordinary person could throw a few punches in one second.

On top of that, the paralysis buff could produce a 3-second control effect.

Although the paralysis buff’s control effect was not at 100%, a 95% chance of paralyzing the opponent was already very high, and this meant that almost every punch Reyker landed had a control effect.

Thus, at this moment, the slime had completely become Reyker’s training target, and it was the kind of target that couldn’t fight back at all.

[ -10! ]

[ -11! ]

[ -9! ]

…

In less than 5 seconds, the slime in front of Reyker was dead.

It contributed 5 EXP to Reyker.

The slime was unable to release its skills even once.

It also dropped some items.

3 white lights were flickering weakly on the ground.

[ Broken Slime Shoes ]

Characteristics: Speed + 2

Durability: 10

Evaluation: Dispensable shoes

[ copper coins x5 ]

[ slime mucus x1 ]

“It actually dropped an equipment!”

Reyker was a little surprised.

He was well aware of the nature of “The One”.

In this game, the drop rates of equipment were pitifully low.

The players he met on the way were mostly holding branches, wooden sticks, and other simple equipment of the sort.

Hence, he was a little surprised when he saw the equipment.

He immediately equipped the slime shoes, then he picked up the five copper coins and continued forward.

There were too many players in the early stages of the game, so there were almost no monsters in the vicinity.

After walking for another 100 meters, only then did Reyker finally see a second slime.
