When the Dire Wolf Leader's health bar dropped by nearly 1/5, I immediately retreated into the crevice between the rocks.
Although it let out a deep growl of anger from outside, it couldn't enter due to its massive size, and it had no way of dealing with me as I slowly recovered my health.
Forty seconds, okay, full health!
The three points of health recovery per second from the tomato were truly different!
I jumped out of the rock crevice and continued to fight the Dire Wolf Leader.
When I had worn down 1/5 of its health, I would retreat to rest again, leaving it to glare helplessly from outside the rocks.
In between, I threw another tomato.
After five rounds like this, the Dire Wolf Leader's health finally hit rock bottom!
The bodies of the Dire Wolves at my feet gradually disappeared, and new Dire Wolves were already starting to respawn not far away.
However, the Dire Wolf Leader in front of me was still clinging on with its last sliver of health.
Its eyes were already bloodshot, and every lunge and bite seemed to expend all of its strength.
My Wild Wolf Greaves already had cracks, but thankfully it was just durability dropping too fast, rather than being damaged beyond repair.
After swallowing a small red potion, my health recovered by over 100 points, which was enough to finish off the Dire Wolf Leader.
"Wham!"
A critical hit, a bright red number 127 popped up, and the Dire Wolf Leader slowly fell down afterwards, its eyes filled with unwillingness, but there was nothing it could do.
"Ding!"
System Message: Congratulations, your level has increased to 10!
System Message: Congratulations, your level has increased to 11!
That wasn't all... a green light flashed, wow, more green equipment!
I almost couldn't help but cheer in delight.
I reached out and tossed the Dire Wolf Leader's head into my backpack, then rummaged beside its corpse.
A wristguard glowing with green light and a long greatsword appeared before my eyes.
I eagerly checked the attributes; green equipment, I was so incredibly excited, especially for that greatsword!
pine forest greatsword (green equipment)
Attack: 24-45
Strength: +8
Stamina: +7
Required Level: 12
Agility Wristguard (green equipment)
Defense: 14
Health: +50
Agility: +6
Intelligence: +5
Required Level: 12
Oh my god, my mind went blank!
Only when you manage a household do you know the cost of oil and rice; if you haven't tangled with monsters, how would you know how tempting high attack power is?
The greatsword's attack of up to 45 was already enough to stand out among other weapons of the same level.
Although it was only 2 levels higher than that longbow, its attack was 19 points higher.
What kind of concept was that?
Even if the greatsword was top-tier, that Agility Wristguard was ridiculously good too.
As far as I knew, equipment with three attributes should all be blue equipment, but this wristguard, only requiring level 12, surprisingly had three attributes.
Even more exaggerated was that it also added 50 health, which for a low-health mage class, was simply a tailor-made, top-tier item!
"How much is this worth?"
"One thousand RMB?"
"No, at least three thousand RMB!"
"No, it's three thousand US dollars!"
As I estimated the value of the equipment, it was almost dinner time.
I quickly tidied up the potions on the ground, then saw that Lu Xuehan was still online, so I went to visit her in the level 9 monster area.
From a distance, I saw Lu Xuehan still diligently fighting monsters.
I hurried over, swung my sword to help her cut down a level 10 monster, and then said to her, "It's time for dinner, we should go offline.
Today's online time has been too long; let's just go to sleep right after dinner."
Lu Xuehan smiled and nodded, then went offline after returning to the village.
As I walked out of the room, I happened to see Lu Xuehan rubbing her eyes as she came out of her room.
It seemed she was really tired.
In the living room, Xu Lin and Xin Yu were already discussing things in the game.
"Someone in our village got a level 5 green staff!
The attributes are really good, +3 Intelligence!"
"Yeah, there's also a handsome guy in our village who got pants with +2 Intelligence, but it's a shame, his girlfriend is a dinosaur!"
I sat down speechless; I didn't even need to think, the latter part of that sentence was said by Xin Yu.
Xu Lin smiled and said, "Little Lin, did you get anything this afternoon?"
I nodded and replied, "Yes, a level 12 wristguard for mage classes.
It has 14 Defense, +4 Intelligence, +6 Agility, and +50 Health!"
The discussions gradually quieted down, and several pairs of beautiful eyes focused on me!
"Whoosh!"
Xu Lin, for once, was excited.
She sprang from the sofa and directly jumped into my arms, loudly exclaiming, "Xiao Fan, I want it, I want it!"
I was instantly dumbfounded.
Xu Lin's soft and delicate body was burning hot, and she was only wearing a thin nightgown.
I could even feel the two soft mounds pressed against my chest, coupled with the waves of heat emanating from Xu Lin's charming mouth.
For the first time, my cheeks were burning hot!
Xin Yu froze for a moment, then laughed, "Oh, Sister Lin, when did you get so intimate with Lin Fan?
Such rapid progress, huh?
Why is Lin Fan's face so red, are you not feeling well?"
Xu Lin, blushing, got up from my embrace and said awkwardly, "That wristguard, I want it..."
I also recovered and immediately patted my chest, saying, "You should have said so earlier!
I thought you were shouting for something else, you scared me!"
Xu Lin's beautiful face turned even redder.
She glared at me and then said, "Do you have any other gains?
I've already leveled up to 8 today, I'm almost exhausted.
I estimate I can reach level 12 the day after tomorrow, and then I'll be able to use that wristguard."
I nodded and said, "That's right, after you get your profession and learn skills, that Intelligence will be quite important to you.
Oh, and I also got a greatsword, a super top-tier one with 24-45 attack.
The original 7-12 one will soon be phased out.
Does anyone want it?"
Xu Lin blinked her beautiful eyes and said, "Anyway, we're almost at ten, and after learning magic, high-attack weapons won't be much use.
Why don't you put that level 4 sword up for consignment in the village?
It should sell for a good price, at least 5 gold!"
"What, 5 gold?
Isn't that an exaggeration?"
I hadn't even earned 5 gold despite all my hard work until now.
Xin Yu shook her head and said, "Not 5 gold, put it up for 10 gold directly.
That way you won't lose money.
Right now, this kind of weapon is priceless; no one would be willing to sell it."
I nodded and said, "Let's do that!"
After thinking for a moment, I added, "Oh, right, I also got a green bow.
It adds 18-32 attack, and the bonus attributes are also good.
Xin Yu, do you want it?
Wait, don't get excited!
Let's talk this through!"
Xin Yu's face was filled with joy: "Lin Fan, I love you to death!
Let's trade online later, I'll come to your village right away."
"Don't rush, that bow requires level 10.
If I remember correctly, you're only level 7, right?
How about we trade in the main city when you reach level 10?"
"Alright, hurry up and eat, I need to go level up!"
"Damn, when did you become so proactive?"
