It had taken Chen Yi more than ten days to reach level 2, but going from level 2 to level 3 had taken him only one day.

With such a pitiful equipment drop rate, there had not been a second equipment drop at all.

The new map was Angry Turtle Coast. It was clearly a freshwater riverbank, yet he had no idea why it was called a coast.

If Chen Yi's Casting Speed somewhat countered wild chickens, then it completely countered Wrath Turtles!

Even lying prone, a Wrath Turtle stood half a person tall. Its shell was covered in spikes, and it possessed excellent physical resistance and health. Once it bit an Enemy, it would never let go. Its only weakness was its slow Movement Speed.

EXP 20/300

Even though they were merely living targets, their thick health bars meant Chen Yi needed two days to reach level 4.

As for the level 4 Goblin Mage, Chen Yi had no idea how high This Guy's damage was, because it had never managed to cast a single skill.

Facing a Goblin Mage whose Spellcasting took around one second, Chen Yi would raise his hand and launch a Fireball to interrupt its cast, then close in for battle.

One day later, the Goblin Mage before Chen Yi turned into Fragments and helped him rise to lv5.

Chen Yi

lv: 5 EXP 0/1000

Profession: None

Constitution: 8 (↑1)

Strength: 7 (↑1)

Intelligence: 13 (↑1)

Agility: 7 (↑1)

Spirit: 21 (↑1)

Talent: Fire Affinity. (Increases Fire Skill mastery and Fire Elemental Damage by 10%.)

Skills: Basic Meditation, Fireball

Soul Energy: 0

Deduction: Insufficient Soul Energy.

Recommended Profession: Mage.

Long periods of meditation had slightly improved his Intelligence and Spirit, though the gains could not compare to the attributes gained from leveling up.

"I'm about to leave the Novice Village. I wonder what the future will be like..."

After Chen Yi spoke with the Village Chief while carrying his washbasin, he vanished from the Novice Village.

The moment Chen Yi left, an invisible ripple swept through the area. Immediately afterward, the Novice Village named ID 101101 began to warp first, and the distortion quickly spread to every region surrounding it.

The entire space turned into bubbles amid the distortion and vanished without a trace, as if it had never existed.

Ding! Congratulations to Player Chen Yi for passing the Novice Village!

Clear time: C

Team: 0

Player cooperation: 0

Scanning...

Ding! Detected that Player Chen Yi entered the Game World in his True Body. Would you like to participate in the Game World's Seed Plan?

Only as he looked at the summary screen before him did Chen Yi Realize that the Game World encouraged Players to form teams. He had been the one who misunderstood the Novice Village.

For ordinary teams, the monsters in the Novice Village gradually increased in Difficulty.

At level 1, when facing rabbits that were fast but did not deal outrageously high damage, leveling up was still easy as long as the team composition was reasonable.

But at level 2, teams began to face challenges. Wild chickens with high toughness and high attack could break through the front line and attack the Mages or archers in the rear.

The Wrath Turtles encountered at level 3 were Warrior killers. They could retract into their shells and Ignore a Warrior's attacks before finding an opportunity to bite him. They were called Wrath Turtles because the lower their health became, the higher their attack rose.

The level 4 Goblin Mage required even more coordinated teamwork to clear. Its Casting Speed was faster than a Mage's automatic Spellcasting, but once it was allowed to cast first, the team might have to spend Resurrection Coins.

For Chen Yi, who had misunderstood the situation, the level 1 rabbits had actually posed the greatest threat.

"What is the Seed Plan?"

Notice! Participating in the Seed Plan will grant you support from the Game World, but the missions you face will become more difficult.

Seed Plan requirements: Players who enter the game in their True Body and successfully leave the Novice Village without forming a team.

Ding! Would you like to participate... Countdown: 30, 29...

"I'll participate!"

Chen Yi did not hesitate for long.

As soon as the words left his mouth, a sharp pain stabbed through his chest, as if something had forcibly drilled into him. Only after a Long Time did the pain ease somewhat.

Trembling, Chen Yi pulled open his Beggar outfit and saw a black imprint at his collarbone. From a distance, it looked like a spiked necklace.

Ding! Soul Imprint successful. Welcome, Player Chen Yi, to the Game World. Evaluating Player...

Congratulations, you have obtained Mage class advancement, Random Skill Selection x1, and increased permissions.

The game store has been unlocked, game store permissions increased, Resurrection Coin x1 obtained.

Backpack function unlocked, chat function unlocked, arena, enhancement device, and residence unlocked.

Information related to the Seed Plan must not be disclosed. Violators will face compulsory measures.

A flood of information directly filled his vision. Only now had Chen Yi truly become a Player in the Game World, and many basic functions available to other Players were only now opening to him.

If he had possessed these functions, Chen Yi might have had a smoother time in the Novice Village.

But this was precisely the restriction of entering the Game World in one's True Body. Only if you could prove your potential would the doors of the Game World open to you.

If you failed, that was also your own choice.

Beginning Mage class advancement

At some unknown point, the blank white space around him disappeared and turned into a dark expanse of water.

"Splash!"

Chen Yi fell into the water. He could not control his body; only his eyes could see and his ears could hear.

There was clearly nothing around him but water, yet it felt as if countless people were present.

"Who is speaking?"

A shrill female voice said, "Mages can do anything. If there is something you cannot do, it is only because your knowledge is insufficient."

A kindly old woman's voice said, "Mages were not born for battle in the beginning. Spells are merely the surface; the core lies in the use of rules."

A proud voice said, "Elemental particles are a Mage's most loyal companions. If you do not use them in battle, how dare you call yourself a Mage?!"

After a Long Time, a magnetic male voice emerged. "Why should you use your understanding to define a Mage?"

Chen Yi suddenly sat upright, gasping nonstop. "Huff... huff..."

If he had remained there any longer, Chen Yi felt that he would have drowned.

Congratulations on successfully advancing!

Soul Energy: 0

CD: 0. Consumes a certain amount of stamina.

Spell Analysis: Unsatisfied with merely using skills, the Chen Yi Mage wished to understand their composition.

CD: 0. Consumes a large amount of Mana.

Mental Power: The use of Mental power.

CD: 0. Consumes a small amount of Mana.

Flash: A preliminary understanding of space allowed for a short displacement.

CD: 60s. Mana consumption is related to Movement Speed distance. Maximum movement distance: 1 meter.

Repelling Fire Ring: Flames explode around the caster, knocking back nearby Enemys and dealing 75% damage.

CD: 15s. Mana consumption: 40MP

Mage Growth Template: Each level up grants Intelligence +2, Spirit +2, Attribute Point +1.

After leveling up, he would no longer receive All Attributes +1. This was a benefit the Game World granted Players; after level 5, those who did not advance could only obtain 1 Point per level.

Likewise, the Novice Village's advancement had not been a true class advancement. It existed only to let Players experience that profession's fighting style.

In Chen Yi's words, the Game World was truly merciful!
