Chapter 4: It's one thing for the healer to be cowardly, but is the swordsman also cowardly?



"How so?"

Yang Yu pressed for more details.

Tang Wu released his hand from the button and slowly spoke:

“In one class, all ten of the top ten students in the grade came, including some with hidden professions, but they still failed and only made it to the fourth level.”

His tone was full of sighs:

"Our super-devilish dungeon, though called a dungeon, is more like a wake-up call for students."

Yang Yu raised an eyebrow slightly:

"What warning?"

"A word of warning: the monsters in the game are almost impossible to defeat."

As Tang Wu spoke, his eyes were filled with worry, as if he were concerned about something.

"Yes, even that small island nation next door has been destroyed. The crisis for human survival is indeed getting stronger and stronger."

Yang Yu nodded gently.

She recalled the news she had just seen, her face filled with worry.

...

After a dizzying spin.

Li Xunle looked around and saw that besides Zhao Hao, there were six other people including Xia Bingxue.

The environment looks like a gladiatorial arena.

The ground was worn smooth and hard, dappled with sunlight, ancient and mysterious.

The arena is surrounded by stone walls tens of meters high, making it impossible to leave.

Unlike the arena, there are three lighthouses on the field, each seven or eight meters high.

The lighthouse appeared to be indestructible.

There are four dark holes in the surrounding stone walls.

Li Xunle looked at the cave entrance and guessed that it must be where wild animals came out.

He looked toward the lighthouse, as if it were something he could climb...

His eyes darted around, and he immediately grabbed Zhao Hao's hand:

"Brother, do you trust me?"

Zhao Hao was looking around when he was suddenly grabbed by the hand, which startled him.

He turned his head and saw it was Li Xunle, then breathed a sigh of relief:

"To be honest, I don't really believe it..."

Li Xunle pouted:

"This time, you can trust me."

"Tch...you always say that." Zhao Hao shook his head.

Li Xunle looked at Zhao Hao with a serious expression:

What attribute points did you allocate?

"As a swordsman, of course I add [Labor] and [Physical], which represent strength, physical ability and speed."

Li Xunle whispered mysteriously in Zhao Hao's ear:

"Trust me, put all your points into [Constitution] before level 20, and I'll carry you to victory!"

Zhao Hao looked at Li Xunle in surprise:

"Are you kidding me? What swordsman would not add [Labor], which represents strength, but instead add all [Constitution]?"

Li Xunle looked intently at Zhao Hao:

"I'll just ask you one question: Do you want to take off in the future?"

"Of course I want to!"

Zhao Hao spoke without hesitation, but then hesitated before speaking:

"But [Body] only represents physical strength and speed, it doesn't add to attack power, so how are we supposed to kill monsters?"

Li Xunle smiled confidently:

"Think about it, which is more important: killing monsters or staying alive?"

"Of course, it's about saving lives! As long as we're alive, we can always rebuild."

"When it comes to survival, physical strength is the most important thing, and besides, you're not some powerful hidden class..."

"You mean, I should increase my speed in the early stages, and of the thirty-six stratagems, running away is the best?"

Zhao Hao seemed to understand something.

"Hey, that's it, I've got it." Li Xunle clapped his hands.

"You're a priest, you wouldn't have maxed out your [Constitution] stat, would you?"

Zhao Hao seemed to have thought of something unbelievable.

“You guessed right!” Li Xunle said casually.

Zhao Hao's eyes widened:

"But I seem to remember that priest skills should have the [Intelligence] attribute added to them for better performance..."

Li Xunle chuckled:

"I'm not your average wet nurse, I'm a toxic wet nurse."

"Poisoned milk?"

Zhao Hao muttered to himself thoughtfully:

"A full-body wet nurse, you really are toxic..."

Li Xunle curled his lip and rolled his eyes at Zhao Hao:

"What I mean is, I can release poison."

"No way, poison? I've never even heard of that..."

"There are always some special skills that are unexpected. Trust me this time, I'll show you something new."

Zhao Hao nodded with some doubt:

"Okay, so what should I do?"

"First, climb that lighthouse. Second, before level 20, put all attribute points into [Constitution]."

Can I really trust you?

Zhao Hao held Li Xunle's hand and confirmed it again and again.

"Of course! At worst, I'll earn it back for you by socketing attribute gems into your equipment later, how about that?"

"Okay, I'll remember that!"

Li Xunle and Zhao Hao each found a lighthouse, quickly climbed up, and sat at the top of the lighthouse, looking completely at ease.

Li Xunle pulled out a staff, which looked like a wooden stick to anyone who didn't know better.

Zhao Hao then took out a long sword that looked like scrap metal.

Xia Bingxue was puzzled by the two's strange behavior.

What are these two up to?

Tan Huan and the other four well-equipped boys were speechless as they watched this scene.

You could say the priest climbed up to hide, but that swordsman…

They're hiding too?

That's so cowardly!

Tan Huan gently shook her head:

"Ignore the two of them. Let's stick to our previous battle formation. Ice and Snow, you're a mage, so be careful to dodge. Stand in the very center."

"Wang Hao, Chen Yuan, you two are knights, so be careful to absorb damage. Li Xiang, you are the swordsman, so you will be the main attacker later."

"Zhang Tian, ​​you're the archer, so you need to pay attention to your positioning. I'm the assassin, so I'll move around and assassinate the most threatening monsters."

Tan Huan seemed very skilled and made the arrangements in just a few words.

The group skillfully surrounded Xia Bingxue in the center, ready for battle.

Li Xunle and Zhao Hao, on the other hand, watched the performance with ease and without any inner turmoil.

At this moment.

Several large characters appeared in the sky:

First stage!

The next second, a chilling sound began to emanate from the hole in the stone wall.

After a low roar, monster figures gradually appeared at the four cave entrances.

There are two monster figures at each cave entrance.

Li Xunle immediately recognized the type of monster—a stone giant.

It is recorded in the game's monster manual.

Its skin is hard and smooth, and has a rock-like color.

It has long arms and legs, with five big toes connecting to the legs and sharp claws connecting to the arms.

Their faces are well-defined, with strong and lean lines, and their deep-set black eyes make them look very tenacious.

After the stone giant got closer, Li Xunle saw its detailed information.
