Xiao Yu chose his character from a race called Goblins without much thought as he did not plan to stick to it all the way. The game was rather radical, but Goblins were just feeble-looking. Xiao Yu chose one randomly, named it Eric, and entered the game.

The reason he had chosen the Goblin was because they had the widest spread in Firmament, hence they could be found everywhere. In other words, he could choose from a variety of spawn points.

Goblins could advance rather rapidly as the game’s ideology was that the stronger the character was at the beginning, the harder the advancement was. Examples included Draconian, Ogre, Young Dragons.

Weaklings such as Goblins and Kobolds advanced rapidly in order to balance out the game.

Xiao Yu did not select a difficult map. Instead, he chose a secluded Goblin horde near an Alliance Night Elf newbie village as his spawn spot. Newbies were usually lower level, which made them perfect training targets.

Upon entering the game, Xiao Yu had a bird’s eye view and rotated 360 degrees around his spawn location. His spawn spot was a Goblin camp that resembled an earthen dike.

The camp ground was surrounded by a thick and dense forest. This was Night Whisper Forest, the Night Elves’ territory. Deep within the forest, a forest tower could vaguely be seen. That was Night Whisper Village—one out of the over 100 Night Elf newbie villages.

His perspective soon descended and swooped past the tent roof. It finally landed on a newly spawned Goblin, and their field-of-views soon combined.

The freshly spawned Goblin was barely one meter tall. It looked silly with its stubby build and grassy green skin. Xiao Yu flexed and soon gained control of the body.

“Hmph!” A Goblin Chief that held a skeleton staff coughed. “Welcome to this world, young Goblin. From now on, you will be a part of the Mud Horde. As one of us, you have to fight for the horde. Do you understand?”

Xiao Yu sized up the Goblin Chief’s avatar. Craigan (Mud Horde Chief)—he was only a level 9 Elite monster. If this was their chief’s strength, the Mud Horde’s capability could be inferred. However, this was to be expected as this was a monster camp near a newbie village; there shouldn’t be any high level monsters here.

Eric asked, “Elder, do you have any missions for me?”

The Goblin Chief nodded. “Recently, several greedy Adventurers have killed many of our horde members.”

Xiao Yu replied instantly, “Do you want me to kill those Adventurers to help the tribe? No problem, how many Adventurers do you want me to kill?”

The Goblin Chief huffed and glared. “Scoundrel, how can you defeat those terrifying Adventurers? Hurry to the Goblin Trainer for your test. You can only join the battle after you pass the exam. Even after you do so, you will have to join an army for us to win. Do you understand?”

Xiao Yu shrugged and exited the tent. Of course he knew that monsters did not attack Adventurers individually. Usually, a large pack would swarm and surround them. Even so, the monsters were usually trashed and defeated. That was expected as they were monsters.
