"Huff, huff, huff..." Half an hour later, Reg lay panting heavily on the ground, his beloved battle axe lying beside him. His hands were numb, and his eyes stared blankly at the sky. For half an hour, Wang Han had stood still, letting him attack. Unfortunately, despite using almost all his strength, Reg couldn't even scratch Wang Han. Instead, he was exhausted, his arms numb from the force of his own attacks. Wang Han, on the other hand, hadn't even moved a step, deflecting all of Reg's attacks with one hand, and his attacks hadn't even disturbed the surrounding environment. Reg, apart from the arm armor Wang Han used to block, hadn't touched anything. The difference in strength was so great that he felt utterly powerless.
He now finally understood why people feared the gods so much—they were too powerful, so powerful that even he, a god-level dwarf, felt powerless.
"Sigh!" Looking at the dwarf Reg, who lay exhausted on the ground like a dog, Wang Han sighed helplessly. He shook his head in disappointment. He had hoped these dwarves would have some special martial arts skills, but they were unremarkable, relying more on strength than technique. They were only slightly better than the martial arts of humans in this world, and that was only in terms of the weapons they used. Perhaps this was the way things were in this world; everyone valued strength and rank, and didn't care much about cultivating martial arts skills. Even this god-level dwarf before him was no exception. The only gain was the special sword energy of this world. This world's sword energy had attributes, which he could learn to make his own sword energy stronger, but that was all. Apart from the attributes, his use of sword energy was even inferior to that of the characters in One Piece.
Upon hearing Wang Han's sigh, Reg's face immediately turned red. He was clearly being looked down upon, but unfortunately, that was the truth, and he couldn't refute Wang Han at all.
“Reg.” Wang Han walked up to Reg, and a green energy extended from his hand, covering Reg’s palm.
After the green energy covered Reg's palm, Reg's palm immediately recovered at a speed visible to the naked eye.
"This is... Elven life magic?" Seeing the green energy cover his palm and the cracks on his hand visibly healing, and feeling the life force within the green energy, Reg's eyes widened as he looked at the masked Wang Han and asked, "My lord, are you an elf?"
"No." Wang Han shook his head and withdrew his hand; the injury on Reg's palm had already healed.
"Thank you," Reg said, expressing his gratitude. He didn't ask any further questions, guessing that Wang Han might be a half-elf, and even a god with both magical and martial arts abilities.
"Reg, how do you think we can find interesting things and powerful people?" Wang Han sat down next to Reg, looking into the distance, and asked.
"Find interesting things and powerful people." Upon hearing this, Reg paused for a moment, looking at Wang Han sitting next to him, gazing into the distance. He felt an aura of loneliness and solitude emanating from Wang Han. As a god, he had also experienced this feeling, but not as profoundly as Wang Han, who was already a god.
'Is it because he's too powerful that no one dares to approach him, and that's why he's lonely? Is he lonely because he can't find an opponent?' Reg thought to himself, and after a moment of silence, he said, 'Then go become an adventurer. There are many, many missions in the Adventurers' Guild: assassination, rescue, finding items, protection, showing off, taking care of children, all kinds of missions. There should be some that will interest you. In the process of carrying out missions, you will also encounter all kinds of powerful people, and it's not impossible to even encounter other gods.'
"Adventurers..." Upon hearing this, Wang Han remained silent for a moment before saying, "Perhaps that's a good idea. So, how does one become an adventurer?"
“Uh…” Reg paused for a moment, looking at Wang Han in surprise. He was already a god, and Wang Han had lived for at least a thousand years. How could he not know how to become an adventurer? Did this guy cultivate in the deep mountains all his life?
"What's wrong?" Wang Han asked curiously, seeing Reg's surprised look.
"No." Upon hearing this, Reg quickly shook his head and said to Wang Han, "Becoming an adventurer is very simple. Just take your job level badge to the Adventurers' Guild to register and receive an adventurer badge. There is an Adventurers' Guild in Dawn City, but the Adventurers' Guild in Dawn City can only issue adventurer badges to those at the Saint level. Those at the God level need to go to the Adventurers' Guild in the capital to register or upgrade."
"Um, how do I get a professional level badge?" Wang Han asked, as he didn't have any professional level badges at all.
Looking at Wang Han, Reg was certain that Wang Han must have cultivated in some deep mountain, and didn't even know common knowledge that everyone else knew.
Reg explained to Wang Han in detail: "Applying for a professional rank badge requires going to the corresponding academy, and you have to apply level by level. You need to have crystal records of your strength. After you reach the super rank, you apply through your respective guild. For example, if you are a mage, you need to apply through the Magic Guild. Regardless of which country or race you apply for the professional rank badge in, it is the same badge and can be used in any country."
"This is really troublesome." Upon hearing this, Wang Han shook his head and said. "However, I don't plan to apply for the Attribute Mage position. I plan to apply for the Knight or Swordsman position, or an Archer or Summoner position would also be fine."
"Uh..." Reg was stunned again, staring intently at Wang Han as if trying to see through him. After a long while, he finally said, "May I ask, sir, how many professions have you cultivated?"
"I mainly study swordsmanship and magic, and only dabble in the others. Taking on a side job shouldn't be too much to ask, right?" Wang Han said upon hearing this. He knew that people with dual or even multiple professions were rare in this world. After all, talent limited an individual's career path, and people's energy was finite. Even if someone had the talent to pursue multiple professions, most people wouldn't spread their energy across them. Of course, there were exceptions, but very few.
"Phew..." Upon hearing this, Reg breathed a sigh of relief. If Wang Han really had so many jobs, how could anyone survive? It's just doing part-time work, which is like a hobby.
“No matter how many professions you apply for, they will all be recorded on a single profession badge,” Reg said.
"I see." Wang Han nodded.
“Sir, shall I take you to apply for your job rank badge and adventurer's badge?” Reg asked.
"Then I'll trouble you." Wang Han nodded, picked up Reg with one hand as if he were carrying a chubby child, and used the wall-hook technique to get out. He took a step and returned to Reg's blacksmith shop.
"Please wait a moment, sir." After returning to the blacksmith shop, Reg blushed slightly when he saw his apprentices looking at him awkwardly as Wang Han carried him like a child. He glared at his apprentices, broke free from Wang Han's grasp, and walked into the back room of the blacksmith shop.
