"Hey! You there, stick figure, what are you standing there grinning like an idiot for?"

A voice boomed out, quite loudly.

The voice was familiar. Sun Busong looked towards the source of the sound.

A Dwarf woman in a grass-green military uniform stood on the steps of the watchtower not far from him, looking at him.

Suya. The name immediately popped into his mind. In just one second, Sun Busong remembered many things.

Suya was the daughter of another master blacksmith. She was already an adult, but she was less than 1.2 meters tall.

Even though Sun Busong's current body was only nine years old, he was quite tall, standing at 1.5 meters. In this area, he stood out from the crowd.

Although Suya wasn't tall, she had long since joined the Patroller team. She was an elite Priest and incredibly popular within Anweimar Fortress.

All the marriageable youths in the fortress were doing their best to win her over.

"Oh, it's Sister Suya, hello there."

Sun Busong smiled and nodded at her.

"I was just thinking about something and didn't notice you. Do you need something?"

Suya jumped down from the steps and quickly came up to him. Her expression was grim, and she spoke to Sun Busong in an unhappy tone, "Of course, I do. It's your old man. He insisted I come check on you, saying you've been looking unwell lately and having frequent nightmares."

As she spoke, she reached out and patted Sun Busong's shoulder.

"Ouch!"

The pat was quite forceful, almost knocking Sun Busong over. He cried out in pain.

"Look at you, I don't know how you can be a Dwarf. These skinny arms, these skinny legs, and this skinny waist! You're a disgrace to the Dwarf race."

Sun Busong endured the pain and straightened up, looking at himself.

By normal human standards, Sun Busong wasn't weak. He had at least some muscle in his arms. He had been helping Uncle Hanyi for years, practicing with a ten-jin hammer quite often.

However, by Dwarf standards, he was a weakling.

"What? Still not convinced! Look at you, how did your body develop? Instead of growing wider, you're just shooting upwards. You're deformed!"

Suya put her hands on her barrel-like waist and pointed at Sun Busong.

It couldn't be helped. The Dwarf race valued sturdiness as beauty. Regardless of gender, if one didn't have a waist of at least four feet, they would be laughed at when they went out.

Seeing Suya about to pat him again, Sun Busong quickly dodged her attack.

"Don't hit me, Sister Suya. With my physique, if you hit me a few more times, I'll be done for. Then I'll have to trouble you with Resurrection."

Suya retracted her hand, gave him a fierce glare, and continued, "Resurrect you? Look at you, you don't train properly. Even a Stonejaw could take you down. And you don't study properly in school. Resurrect you? Go study!"

Hearing this, Sun Busong felt that Resurrection was different from what he imagined, so he quickly asked, "Hehe, it's just that I've been having nightmares lately, so I dozed off in class and didn't remember. Could the lovely Sister Suya explain it to me again?"

Hearing Sun Busong call her lovely, a blush immediately appeared on Sister Suya's face.

"Kid, you're not much, but you've got a sweet tongue, hahaha. Alright, Big Sister will explain it to you today."

"Mhm, thank you, beautiful Sister Suya."

"Hahaha, no problem, no problem."

After laughing heartily a few times, Suya began to explain to Sun Busong.

Before long, he understood what was going on.

It turned out that resurrecting someone was not a simple matter.

First, the corpse of the person to be resurrected must be intact. Not a single bone could be missing. Missing limbs were not allowed, not even a finger.

Second, Resurrection was performed at an Altar, and it required five Priests to cast the Resurrection spell together.

Third, casting the Resurrection spell required material components, which were extremely rare and expensive. In short, if you wanted to be resurrected, you had to pay extra!

Moreover, after resurrection, the person's level would decrease, and they would have a six-month period of weakness. During this time, they had to rest in bed and be well taken care of.

However, after resurrection, all wounds on the body would heal completely, and even the scars would not be left behind.

After learning this, Sun Busong felt even more attached to the Super Soul Stone in his backpack.

"Alright, the explanation is finished. Now, sit up straight. I'm going to cast a Purification spell on you to remove any illnesses from your body."

After Sun Busong sat up straight, Suya began to cast her skill.

A series of incantations came from Suya's mouth, and a gentle breeze slowly enveloped Sun Busong's entire body. It was warm, like the scorching sun in spring, making one want to close their eyes and sleep.

The spell ended quickly. Sun Busong didn't rush to open his eyes but slowly savored the feeling in his mind.

However, his actions were soon interrupted.

"Hurry up and get up! Are you slacking off again? I don't know how Old Man Hanyi taught you. If it were my old man, he would have beaten you black and blue by now."

Sun Busong's body almost fell apart from her shaking. Suya didn't know how to be gentle.

When she saw Sun Busong open his eyes in a panic and hastily stand up, Suya's eyes revealed pity and contempt for the weak.

Before Sun Busong could even speak, Suya directly grabbed him and quickly walked away.

"Sister, Sister, be gentle! Let go of me, okay? You're hurting me. Where are we going?"

Sun Busong struggled and pleaded, but it was all in vain.

Suya ignored his words. Dragging Sun Busong along, she said to herself, "Uncle Hanyi is too busy. He's handed you over to me for guidance. From now on, you'll listen to everything I say. I don't care about forging; your mission today is to kill ten Stonejaws."

"What!"

Sun Busong knew what Stonejaws were. The original owner's memories of these creatures were still vivid.

These humanoid monsters lived in Cold Ridge Valley. They were omnivores and had eaten plenty of the small animals in the valley.

They were slightly taller than Dwarves, with hardly any flesh on their bodies. They had green skin, protruding fangs, and three-toed feet.

They weren't very strong and often carried a bone as a weapon. They preyed on the weak and fled from those they couldn't defeat, often moving in groups.

The original owner of this body had encountered a Stonejaw once when he was only seven years old. He was shorter than the Stonejaw back then. Seeing him alone, the creature hid behind a tree and ambushed him.

If he hadn't run fast and later encountered a Patroller, Sun Busong wouldn't have transmigrated.

After being rescued, he was bedridden for a full week. Although the physical pain had healed, the memory still hurt.

"I'm not going! I'm not going! You can kill me, but I won't go!"

These words weren't spoken by Sun Busong, but by the lingering remnants of memory within his body.

"What are you afraid of? I'm here, you won't get hurt. If you're a Dwarf man, you must kill ten today. Don't let me look down on you."

This time, Sun Busong didn't speak again. He felt the lingering control within his body slowly dissipate.

The original owner had completely left this world, leaving only memories behind. Fear, sorrow, and timidity vanished along with him.

After dragging Sun Busong for a while, Suya noticed the person behind her had stopped his mournful cries and struggling. She stopped and turned to look into Sun Busong's eyes.

"Why aren't you crying anymore?"

Sun Busong just met her gaze without speaking.

After looking at him for a few more moments, Suya's eyes showed approval and encouragement. She then said, "It seems you've understood. Good, that's right. That's what it means to be a Dwarf man."

"Haha, kid, from today onwards, your life will begin to head towards glory, and I am your guide!"

Sun Busong's life did indeed begin today, but he felt the word "glory" didn't suit him.

He wanted to dominate!

Without Suya needing to pull him, Busong followed behind her, and they soon arrived at a place where Stonejaws frequently appeared.

"Busong, don't be afraid. I'm here for you. Although you're still a commoner, you can definitely kill these trash Stonejaws. Here, Uncle Hanyi asked me to give this to you."

As she spoke, she handed Sun Busong a long sword.

Busong took the long sword and looked at it.

Commoner's Sword: Item Level 3. One-handed sword, 1-2 damage, Speed 2.8 (0.6 damage per second).

What is this?

Seeing Sun Busong's disgusted expression, Suya spoke, "I know you think this equipment is bad, but you need to understand your identity. You're just a commoner now. Only when you reach level ten can you reclassify as a Professional."

"At that time, you can find specialized mentors based on your strengths or preferences to learn skills and become a Professional. But now, you can only use weapons like this. Even if you wanted to use better standard weapons, you'd have to be able to lift them."

Seeing Busong's confused look, Suya shook her head impatiently and took out another weapon.

Double-edged Scimitar: Item Level 16. One-handed sword. 3-5 damage. Speed 1.6 (2.2 damage per second).

Below this weapon, a line of text appeared.

Requires Level 11!

"Do you understand now? These weapons have requirements. If you haven't reached a specific level, you can't even pick up this weapon!"

"So that's how it is!"

Sun Busong understood. Wasn't this just a restriction mechanism like in games?

If you created a level one character and equipped a level ninety-nine weapon, you could kill level twenty monsters with one stab, and level thirty monsters with one stab. Wouldn't that ruin the game's balance?

After thinking it through, Busong gripped the Commoner's Sword and said to Suya, "Sister Suya, I understand now. Shall we start?"

Seeing Sun Busong's current demeanor, Suya smiled and encouraged him, "Don't worry about anything. I'll cast a Magic Shield on you, so these Stonejaws won't be able to hurt you. Go ahead and attack with confidence."

"Okay, I'm going!"

Sun Busong's face wore an expression of fearless bravery as he walked into the cave ahead without looking back. Suya followed far behind to protect him.

Not long after entering the cave, Sun Busong encountered the first monster he had met since arriving in this world: a Stonejaw Invader!

Currently, besides the weapon in his hand, he had almost no defensive equipment, wearing only the Blacksmith Apprentice Uniform Set.

But now was not the time to be timid. He let out a loud shout!

Oh, wait. Shouting in someone else's cave was a stupid thing to do.

He stopped, pressed his back against the wall, gripped the Commoner's Sword tightly, and held his breath, waiting for the patrolling monster to arrive.

Just as the footsteps of the approaching monster were about to reach his position, a shield suddenly appeared on him.

Word of Truth. Shield!

The shield came at the perfect moment, just in time. As the Stonejaw Invader saw Sun Busong and charged towards him, the shield appeared.

With the shield, Sun Busong's courage immediately grew. He raised his sword and swung it at the opponent's head.

The battle ended quickly. As a level one monster, if it could kill a Transmigrator, it would be the protagonist.

After killing the Stonejaw Invader, Sun Busong suddenly saw a light flashing on the corpse. Was this the legendary corpse looting? Sun Busong was amused. He immediately squatted down and began to search the corpse.

On the Stonejaw Invader's corpse, Sun Busong found 4 Copper Coins, and his experience points increased by 10.

The experience required to level up to level two was 100 points. This meant he only needed to kill 9 more Stonejaw Invaders to level up.

But what were the benefits of leveling up?

Killing enough to get attribute points was the real business. Fortunately, leveling up required Sun Busong's own control and wouldn't happen automatically.

"I'll kill enough for one attribute point first."

With Suya's support from behind, Sun Busong's first battle on the Azeroth Continent began with great fanfare.

Three hours later, Sun Busong took the bread and water handed to him by Suya and sat on the ground, replenishing his stamina.

In these three hours, he had killed 99 Stonejaw Invaders. His experience points were already sufficient. He had stayed at level one, not leveling up, all for that one free attribute point.

"What's gotten into you today? Why are you fighting so hard? Did you take the wrong medicine? I almost depleted all my magic just by casting shields for you."

Looking at Sun Busong, who was like a completely different person, Suya didn't suspect anything. She just felt that this kid had truly awakened, which was a good thing. Moreover, he had awakened under her leadership, making her feel as happy as if she had saved the world.

"Heh heh, I don't know what's gotten into me either. I just want to kill them all. But I'm really tired today. My hands hurt so much I can barely hold my sword. Can we go back after I kill just one more?"

The understanding Suya, his big sister, naturally agreed to his request.

However, the Stonejaw Invaders in the cave had already been killed by him alone. Not a single living creature could be found.

The two searched for nearly half an hour without finding any. Finally, they decided to leave the cave first.

Unexpectedly, as soon as they exited the cave, an obtuse Shaggy Young Wolf appeared before them.

These beasts were also residents of Cold Ridge Valley, but their numbers were not large.

The moment he saw the Shaggy Young Wolf, Sun Busong went mad. He laughed, grabbed his sword, and charged forward at the fastest speed he had ever moved, plunging his sword directly into the Shaggy Young Wolf's abdomen.

However, the Shaggy Young Wolf was a level three beast. This stab wouldn't kill it. The situation immediately reversed. Sun Busong tightly protected his face with his arms, while the Shaggy Young Wolf ferociously tore at his clothes.

By the time Suya reacted and struck the Shaggy Young Wolf dead with a club, Sun Busong was already lying in a pool of blood.

But this one free attribute point was secured.

Slaughter: Divine Artifact, Item Level 1 (Sealed, one seal unlocked every twenty levels), Necklace, Bound upon equipping, Untradeable, Undroppable. Growing Divine Artifact, the more monsters or enemies you kill, the faster Slaughter grows.

+1 Strength

+1 Agility

+1 Stamina

Equipment: For every 100 enemies of the same level killed, a free attribute point will be automatically generated. Free attribute points can be added to Strength, Agility, Stamina, Intelligence, Spirit. (102/100)

So, these kill points could be accumulated!

Your little brother is begging here for all sorts of things: collections, votes, investments. I hope everyone will read the latest chapters every day. This is very important to the author. Please, everyone!
