Jiang Han quickly walked out of the Novice Village, carefully storing away the Forbidden Spell Scroll, Wrath of the Fire God, feeling a bit strange: "These days, there are so many treasures in the Novice Village?"
Thinking about how that old man not only possessed a Forbidden Spell Scroll but might also allow players to acquire a Hidden Class, Jiang Han couldn't help but marvel at the absurdly abundant opportunities hidden in this broken village.
Wasting no time, he headed to the Wild Bull Territory, raising his iron sword without hesitation and delivering a fierce strike to the bull's belly.
-21!
Not bad. Although it would take more than twenty strikes, at least he could deal some damage.
"Moo!"
The wild bull, attacked, let out a painful howl, immediately lowering its head in anger, using its sharp horns to attack Jiang Han. However, Jiang Han's agile movements allowed him to easily dodge the bull's charge.
"Once you get used to the game, dodging the bull's attacks isn't too hard," Jiang Han smiled faintly, feeling quite confident in his in-game maneuvering skills.
Then, in the next second, his confidence vanished.
"Moo moo moo..."
The bull's cries seemed to have a summoning effect, attracting two other bulls that had been leisurely grazing nearby, charging towards Jiang Han.
"You've got to be kidding me," Jiang Han gasped, "Can't beat me, so you call for backup?"
He had never thought that monsters in the Novice Village would actively attack players. After all, when he attacked the slime earlier, the nearby slimes completely ignored him. Yet, the slightly stronger wild bull had its difficulty level skyrocket!
Taking advantage of the fact that the other bulls hadn't arrived yet, Jiang Han struck the noisy bull twice.
-15!
-16!
Meanwhile, two bulls attacked from the sides. Jiang Han quickly turned and leaped backward, narrowly avoiding them. He then looked around and suddenly his eyes lit up. He picked up a stone from the ground and hurled it heavily at one of the bulls, hitting its rear accurately.
-25!

"Ding!~"
System prompt: You used a stone to deal 25 points of damage to the wild bull!
Throwing stones hurts more than slashing with my iron sword?
Is there no justice?
Jiang Han couldn't help but complain, glancing down at the iron sword in his hand. Without thinking, he thrust it into the eye of the bull charging straight at him. At the same time, he was hit directly, his chest aching as he was knocked back, flying with the iron sword.
-55!
-50!
The eyes were clearly a weak spot, resulting in a critical hit, dealing slightly more damage than the bull had inflicted. At this moment, Jiang Han's health was at a solid 400 points. Even after losing a tenth, he wasn't too badly off.
"Moo!"
The bull jumped and thrashed in pain.
Meanwhile, the other two bulls didn't just stand by. They charged at Jiang Han with reckless abandon.
Fortunately, their attack patterns were simple and lacked intelligence. Jiang Han used the same trick again, swiftly dodging as they approached, effectively avoiding damage.
Of course, for ordinary players, this wouldn't be easy. Jiang Han dared to call himself a seasoned gamer, having some confidence in his maneuvering skills.
After more than ten minutes, he managed to grind down three bulls using stones and his iron sword.
"Ding!~"
System prompt: Congratulations on killing [Wild Bull], gaining 50 experience points!
After checking the system message log, Jiang Han, feeling excited, picked up the three copper coins that had dropped on the ground. After resting for a moment, he prepared to find another bull to trouble.
Regardless of anything else, the experience was quite substantial. Currently, he needed 800 experience points to level up, and twenty bulls would do the trick.
Perhaps some players might find this inefficient, but every game has different settings. To Jiang Han, leveling up in about two hours was far better than idling in the Novice Village.
A few minutes later, Jiang Han found two lone bulls, observing that there were no herds nearby. He quietly approached with his iron sword, wearing a harmless smile as he said to the bulls, "Don't worry, I'm a good person, no malice intended."
With that, he stabbed at the bull's eye, using the weak spot for a critical hit to speed up his leveling process.
"Moo!"
With the bull's angry roar, one man and two bulls began a chase under the bright sunshine.
After more than ten minutes, Jiang Han, panting heavily, picked up two copper coins and found a piece of clothing dropped beside one of the bulls.
Thank heavens, finally some equipment dropped!
Overjoyed, Jiang Han quickly picked it up to check—
[Wild Bull Leather Armor] (Whiteboard Grade)
Defense: 4-5
Description: Armor made from bull hide, much tougher than ordinary clothing.
Although it's just Whiteboard Grade, it's still better than the Soldier's Leather Armor he was wearing. Jiang Han immediately changed into the new armor, increasing his defense by 3 points, significantly improving his tolerance against the bulls.
However, he couldn't just discard the Soldier's Leather Armor. After all, it's still equipment, and he could definitely sell it for a good price to the players in the Novice Village who couldn't even handle slimes.
Afterward, spending two hours, Jiang Han filled up his experience bar, basking in golden light as he leveled up to level 5.
Checking the system time, it was already 8 PM. The game had launched at 1 PM, and he had been online for seven hours straight.
Though Jiang Han wanted to strike while the iron was hot and widen the gap with ordinary players, a pack of instant noodles at noon wasn't enough. Now, with his stomach growling, his body couldn't take it anymore. He decided to fill his stomach first.
Finding a relatively safe spot where he wouldn't be surrounded by bulls upon logging in, Jiang Han summoned the system panel and logged out of the game.
...
Removing the gaming helmet, Jiang Han skillfully took out his phone to order delivery.
"Ding dong!"
In no time, the doorbell rang.
Opening the door, the delivery person in yellow lifted the takeout to indicate, "Hello, are you... the National First-Class Takeout Taster? Here's your chicken cutlet rice."
Looking at the order on the bag, reading out Jiang Han's online name from the delivery app, the delivery person's mouth twitched, seemingly wanting to laugh but holding it in with effort.
"Thank you."
Taking the delivery, Jiang Han closed the door, sat at his computer desk, and while checking the game forum, he dug into his meal.
"It seems most players still haven't even stepped out of the Novice Village." From the various grateful voices on the forum, Jiang Han roughly understood that the current situation hadn't changed.
What does this mean?
It means that the Soldier's Leather Armor he swapped out could definitely sell for a good price!
After browsing for a few minutes, Jiang Han found an interesting post—"On How to Obtain Hidden Classes."
"Players have already figured out how to obtain hidden classes?" Jiang Han was surprised and quickly clicked to read.
How to obtain hidden classes? Everyone is familiar with hidden classes, and the Eternal official website mentioned that there are hidden classes and even Unique Hidden Classes in the game. But how to obtain them? Let's find out together.
Obtaining hidden classes means players acquiring them in-game. You might be surprised that players can get hidden classes, but that's the reality, and even I'm surprised.
...
Damn, it's just a marketing post!
Jiang Han couldn't help but curse, closing the post immediately. He quickly finished his chicken cutlet rice and put on his gaming helmet.
