After thinking for a moment, Jiang Hao didn't reply and simply closed the chat window.
She's already bought the equipment; he needs the only piece himself. He can contact her again when he gets more equipment. Right now, the most important thing is to keep grinding.
He then opened other people's messages and browsed through them briefly. Some asked him what monsters dropped the equipment, some asked him how to kill a level 5 weasel, some asked if he had any other equipment, and some asked if he was male or female, and if he wanted a girlfriend or boyfriend.
Jiang Hao felt a chill run down his spine...
Shutting off these tedious messages, Jiang Hao raised his staff and gently swung it down at a white sea turtle 50 meters away. The turtle's body vanished instantly...
After killing the 7th sea turtle, Jiang Hao gained another 12 experience points. A flash of white light appeared on his body, and he leveled up.
"Congratulations on leveling up! You have gained 5 free attribute points and 1 skill point. Please allocate them wisely."
Jiang Hao was disappointed that no equipment dropped. However, leveling up was a good thing, especially since he had also gained skill points. Jiang Hao quickly opened his personal panel.
Name: Lord of Hell
Class: Necromancer
Level: 2
Life: 60+80
Strength: 6 (affects health, 1 Strength = 10 Health)
Agility: 6 (affects movement speed, 1 agility = 1 point of movement speed)
Intelligence: 16+8 (Necromancer's main attribute, 1 point of intelligence = 2 points of spell attack power = 15 points of mana = 1/2 spell resistance)
Spirit: 14+2 (Affects mana regeneration rate; mana regeneration per second = Spirit / 5 + 12)
Mana: 360
Physical attack power: 3
Spell Attack Power: 32
Physical defense: 1.5
Spell Resistance: 8
Movement speed: 6
Free attribute points: 10
Experience: 1/300
Base stats doubled, health 140, mana 360, not bad. But why does it need 300 experience points?
"System, do you think it would be more reasonable to set the experience points required for leveling up to 200?"
After waiting for a while, the system did not respond, and Jiang Hao knew it didn't want him to think so.
"You won't listen to advice? Fine then."
Jiang Hao checked the skills section and found that upgrading the Resurrection skill required two evolution points. It seemed that he would have to wait until level 3 to upgrade the skill.
He then clicked on the talent section and saw that the stun duration of the talent had increased to 1.07 seconds. Now that he was already level 2, he definitely couldn't upgrade his talent by fighting crabs anymore. Thinking of the terrifying killing power of a level 7 lobster, Jiang Hao quickly shook his head.
Achieving a 5-second stun duration is a long and arduous journey. Perhaps you should go and see what level 7 monsters are like.
Jiang Hao plopped down on the skull-shaped sea turtle, the size of a washbasin, gripping the edge of its shell with one hand and holding his staff in the other, and ran to the left along the beach. After passing through the area of level 7 monster lobsters, Jiang Hao finally saw level 8 giant crabs on the beach.
【Crab】
Faction: Hostile
Level: 8
Life: 1600
Physical Attack: 288
Physical defense: 33
Speed: 24
Skill: Bone Crusher - Uses pincers to clamp down hard on the opponent, dealing 180% of attack power as damage.
Hiss~
With attributes even more terrifying than a lobster and almost identical skill descriptions, Jiang Hao looked at the crab's two large, hairy pincers and had no doubt that the Bone Crushing skill was just the destructive power of one pincer.
I can't beat them, I'm outta here.
Bypassing the crabs and riding the skeleton turtle forward, you'll see a large river ahead. The whitish water carries white sand as it flows into the sea, creating a large white sand beach on the shore.
Jiang Hao spotted a dozen or so crocodiles with red question marks around their levels lying on the shallow riverbank. Clearly, their levels were at least ten levels higher than his. Jiang Hao ordered the little sea turtle to turn around and leave.
Given the nature of Lingxu Games, he simply couldn't handle more than a dozen monsters.
After going around in circles, Jiang Hao found himself back at the crossroads. Poor Ryan, the level 5 world boss, was still standing there. Jiang Hao walked around him at a safe distance.
If you continue straight ahead from the crossroads, the monsters will only get higher and higher. It's better to take the left-hand path instead.
Jiang Hao saw a large open area to his left and rode his skeleton turtle there. In the distance, he saw several deer with antlers on their heads on the grass. He cast a detection spell on the nearest deer.
【Wild Deer】
Faction: Hostile
Level: 9
Life: 1350
Physical attack: 234
Physical defense: 34
Speed: 54
Skill: Charge - Quickly moves to a distance, dealing 120% of attack power as damage to enemies in its path. Skill cooldown: 10 seconds.
Stroking his chin, Jiang Hao thought, "He can fight!"
However, he dared not be the first to engage the monster. If he used his talent effect to pull it over, and the skeleton turtle failed to draw aggro, he would be doomed.
Flying a kite? Forget it! With a movement speed of 54, I'd be grateful if they didn't fly kites around him and the skeleton turtle.
Jiang Hao dismounted from the skeleton turtle and commanded it to slowly crawl towards the wild deer. Jiang Hao followed behind the skeleton turtle, his eyes fixed on the wild deer's every move.
When the skeleton turtle crawled to within 15 meters of the wild deer, the deer suddenly turned its head and looked at the skeleton turtle warily. Jiang Hao's heart jumped, and he immediately stood still.
Is WC that vigilant?
The skeleton turtle was still slowly crawling forward. When it was 14 meters away from the wild deer, Jiang Hao saw the wild deer turn around, lower its head, and then leap forward like the wind to rush in front of the skeleton turtle. Its sharp horns mercilessly pierced into the skeleton turtle's skeleton.
-281
White damage numbers floated up above the skull turtle's head, making Jiang Hao's eyes widen in disbelief.
Holy crap, is he that brave?
Did they just unleash their skills right away?
He quickly ordered the skeleton turtle to fight back, but the skeleton turtle wasn't tall enough and bit the wild deer's lowered head.
-150.5
The wild deer was stunned for a second, and the skeleton turtle released its mouth and bit its head again.

Jiang Hao had already reached the skeleton turtle's side. Just as the wild deer recovered from its dizziness, he took the opportunity to strike down with his staff, forcibly stunning the wild deer for another second.
-148
The skeletal turtle was about to bite the deer's head again. At this moment, the deer finally woke up, still with its head lowered, and used its antlers to butt the turtle. The turtle, not to be outdone, stretched out its skeletal head and bit into the deer's head repeatedly.

One blow after another, the deer and the tortoise engaged in a primal brawl on the vast green grassland. The skeleton tortoise was alright; no one could tell where it was injured. But the wild deer's head was a different story. It was covered in blood from the skeleton tortoise's teeth, making Jiang Hao's teeth chatter.
The wild deer only had 1350 health points, which was lower than the 1584 health points of the skeleton turtle. In addition, Jiang Hao's skill could stun the wild deer for two seconds every 5 seconds. Finally, in the 12th second of the battle, the valiant wild deer died from the stun.
Gained 23 experience points
Gain 1 copper coin
"Player detected defeating a monster 5 levels higher than their own. Talent effect enhanced, stun duration increased by 0.01 seconds. Current stun duration 1.08 seconds, true damage 5 points."
There were no equipment drops, only one copper coin. A level 2 player fought 9 monsters at a level 7 level higher and only got 23 experience points, which is pitifully little.
"After grinding for so long, I've finally seen some money."
From the beginning until now, although Jiang Hao hasn't killed many monsters, he has never received any copper coins. He even thought that this game didn't have its own currency system.
Jiang Hao didn't choose to revive the wild deer mainly because he didn't have enough mana. Reviving a wild deer requires 460 mana points, and he only had 360 mana. Although he had 10 points of free attribute, he didn't want to use it right now. Another reason was that the skeleton turtle had its own healing skill, so it wouldn't take long for it to recover to full health.
After the skeleton turtle recovered, Jiang Hao had it continue luring monsters. Just like before, there was no strategy involved, and one after another, the wild deer died helplessly in the skeleton turtle's mouth.
