Looking at his stats, James Williams was a little surprised. His stats did not look like a level 3 player’s at all, he felt that even those level 6 or 7 tanks were not as good as him.

He turned to look at the kitten’s stats panel.

[Character: Long-range pet cat]

[Master: Hades]

[Level: White gold]

[Level: Level 4]

[Race: Cat]

[Skill slots: 1, Energy Fluctuation (9 seconds cooldown)]

[Attack: 70]

[Defense: 45]

[Health: 450]

[Agility: 43]

Looking at the attributes, James Williams nodded. He felt that the kitten had a pretty good improvement, but the cooldown of the skill had only been reduced by one second. This made him a little speechless.

However, from a different perspective, this skill was already very powerful. If the cooldown was short, how could the normal players enjoy the game?

Seeing that the goods in his hands had been dealt with and the village chief’s hidden quests had been completed, there was no need for him to stay in the Novice Village anymore.

He opened the map and looked at the distribution of monsters in the Novice Village. The monsters at close range were all level 2 or 3, which were suitable for players who had just entered the game to kill monsters and level up.

Now, he wanted to go to a farther northwest quest point. It was a place where level 4 or level 5 players could do quests.

Leveling up there would be much easier. James Williams wanted to see if he could obtain some good skill books for his pet.

Walking to the front of the portal, a black NPC held a ray sword in his hand and said, “Brave adventurer, where do you want to go?”

“I want to go to the northwest,” said James Williams.

Two beams of light shone on James Williams and his kitten.

The scene in front of him suddenly changed, and a dense forest appeared before him.

[Ding!]]

[Teleportation gate deducts 2 gold coins!]

Hearing the notification, James Williams was stunned. He thought that the teleportation gate in the Novice Village was free, but he spent 2 gold coins to teleport with the kitten. It seemed that every being needed 1 gold coin.

When he came to the forest, the surroundings had been cleared out. There were some NPCs guarding the area.

Once he left the territory, he would be attacked by wild monsters outside. Ever since the opening of the server, there had been a few brave people who ran beyond the territory and were attacked by unknown wild monsters, resulting in their deaths.

Resurrecting took five hours. They were destined to have a large gap between them and the first batch of players.

After arriving here, James Williams found an NPC.

The NPC said, “Brave adventurer, what do you need?”

[I need to level up.]

[No, I’m going the wrong way. Let me think.]

[I need to obtain some weapons and resources.]

He chose to level up.

“Brave adventurer, there are some hateful jungle giant spiders in the depths of this forest that are threatening our adventurers. Are you willing to go and destroy them?”

[Giant spider: A giant mutated one-eyed spider. It could protrude its spider silk to entangle the opponent and wait for the opponent to be exhausted before eating it. Every spider that was brought back would be exchanged for 40 experience points and 12 gold coins.]

[Level 7]

[Attack: 120]

[HP: 1,300]

[Defense: 105]

[Skills: Spider Silk Entangle and Wild Bite.]

120 attack points. After a rough calculation, an ordinary player would not be able to last more than three or four bites before dying in front of this giant spider.

[Ding! Do you accept the quest, Eliminate the Giant Spiders?]

“Yes!”

James Willaims gave it some careful thoughts. If he wanted to rapidly level up, he could only fight monsters that were of a higher level. Otherwise, he would not be able to obtain sufficient experience points. Each of these giant spiders would reward him with 40 experience points and 12 gold coins.

James Williams was only at level 3. A few giant spiders would be enough for him to reach level 4. Moreover, that place was packed with spiders. This was a place that no other players would dare to set foot in, but for James Williams, this was the best place for him to level up.

Of course, he had to be prepared before he set off. James Williams came to the side of the pharmacist.

The NPC beauty said, “Brave adventurer, what do you need? I have all kinds of powerful potions for your reference.”

[Life Recovery Potion: 20 gold coins (150 health points replenished)]

[Life Recovery Potion for pets: 20 gold coins (150 health points replenished)]

[Temporary Defense Potion: 30 gold coins (30 points increase in defense for 2 minutes)]

[Temporary Agility Potion: 30 gold coins (20 points increase in agility for 1 minute)]

[Temporary Defense Potion for pets: 40 gold coins (25 points increase in defense for 2 minutes)]

[Temporary Agility Potion for pets: 40 gold coins (20 points increase in agility for 1 minute)]

[Temporary Vision Potion: 100 gold coins (powerful vision for 5 minutes)]

[Temporary Damage Potion: 150 gold coins (40 points increase in attack for 1 minute)]

…

This time, James Williams did not stand on ceremony.

[Life Recovery Potion: 20 gold coins (150 health points replenished) x2]

[Life Recovery Potion for pets: 20 gold coins (150 health points replenished) x2]

[Temporary Defense Potion: 30 gold coins (30 points increase in defense for 2 minutes) x1]

[Temporary Agility Potion: 30 gold coins (20 points increase in agility for 1 minute) x1]

[Temporary Defense Potion for pets: 40 gold coins (25 points increase in defense for 2 minutes) x1]

[Temporary Agility Potion for pets: 40 gold coins (20 points increase in agility for 1 minute) x1]

[Temporary Vision Potion: 100 gold coins (jungle-specific, powerful vision for 5 minutes) x2]

[Return scroll: 10 gold coins (5 seconds of chanting outside of combat mode to return to the jungle) x1]

After buying all the necessary items to level up and kill monsters, he would be able to leave the Novice Village as long as he perfectly completed this quest. The 430 gold coins he spent this time were worth it.

As long as he left the Novice Village, the advantage of his eternal ring would be revealed.

He could not reveal the fact that he was the owner of the eternal ring in the Novice Village. There was a high chance that some jealous people would follow the clues and track him down. That would be too troublesome.

After leaving the jungle camp and stepping into the forest, James Williams held the kitten and walked on the road vigilantly. They did not have a teleportation door to reach the giant spider, so they could only walk there. In view of the unknown creatures along the way, James Williams was well-prepared.

He looked at the bottles of colorful potions in his backpack, which gave him a sense of security..
