"This darn ga is a bit too grind-heavy, isn't it?"
Wang Linchi crawled out of the Ga Cabin. After finishing his errand task, he had completed another three tasks that each gave 10 experience points. They were pretty common tasks and not too difficult.
With the aid of "The Private School Teacher's Comntary on Ming Jing," he gained 2 free attribute points and 2 skill points. However, he hadn't used them yet.
But, can I really bring items out of the ga?
Wang Linchi felt a special force within his spirit, sothing he managed to bring back into reality. Since his spiritual power was stronger, he could do this. If it were soone else, they probably wouldn't be able to.
He tried refining it, and the process was surprisingly smooth. It directly beca part of his own power.
Did my spiritual power increase a bit? Wang Linchi's eyes lit up involuntarily.
Under normal circumstances, he couldn't level up in this world where nothing transcendent existed.
More importantly, the unsealing of my power...
Initially, due to the differences in the world, his Thought Field could only exist within his body. But after refining this power, his Thought Field could now interfere externally. Even if it was far weaker than before, it was still progress.
Summoning the Book of Records with so effort, it landed in his hand but quickly fell silent.
It works, but the consumption is just too high. It takes ten thousand spiritual power points just to summon the Soul Resemblance.
Wang Linchi didn't think much of it. Given his situation, ten thousand points of spiritual power could recover quickly. After he put it back, it consud another ten thousand points of spiritual power.
As for the three Saint Masters—True Dragon, Coiling Dragon, and Dragon Soul—they still could not be released; the restriction was still there.
So what exactly is this power I refined? Attribute points, skill points, or experience points?
What kind of principle is this… Oh, no need to think so much. I should get stronger first.
Wang Linchi quickly pushed the thoughts to the back of his mind, as he was not yet able to understand them.
But one thing could be confird: he was indeed able to indirectly beco stronger through "God-given World."
So what are we waiting for? Let's grind.
Getting stronger equates to an increase in lifespan. It also prepares him for any possible fusion of the ga with reality in the future.
After so ti, items from the ga might be brought out, and strength in the ga might also synchronize with the player. Anyway, this seems to be the routine.
Right now, it's just the beginning of the ga, an absolute boon for him.
Without hesitation, Wang Linchi dove back into the ga.
It's experience points!
Watching his level drop from LV2 back to LV1, he realized that his ga character's experience was drained to supplent himself.
However, his attribute points and skill points were still there; they hadn't vanished.
If I exploit a bug to level up infinitely and then fall back, would I keep stacking attributes to beco a monster?
Wang Linchi couldn't help but consider this possibility.
There's no way they'd allow to exploit such a bug, right?
He didn't believe he'd be so lucky. Leveling up and then dropping levels shouldn't allow him to stack attributes again.
He subsequently went to hand in his completed tasks. Before going offline, he had finished his tasks but just hadn't submitted them yet.
It was the sa Private School Teacher in the academy. The reason he hadn't gone before was, firstly, because he had leveled up, and secondly, because this task didn't reward experience or Copper Coins, but rather a piece of equipnt.
Moreover, it was Excellent Level equipnt.
[Qingyun Ink Brush]
[Level: 1]
[Profession: Scholar]
[Quality: Excellent]
[Attributes]
[Fixed Damage 5]
[Effect: Casting Speed 10%]
Wang Linchi didn't hesitate to equip the item. The basic attacks of the Scholar Profession can virtually be ignored unless other weapons are equipped. Otherwise, they can only cause Fixed Damage, and most of the attack skills are also Fixed Damage plus a percentage based on Root Bone and Spiritual Power.
This ant if he didn't use the Scholar's basic attack skill, "Literary Warfare," he could only deal 5 points of damage with the Qingyun Ink Brush. The good news was that this damage wasn't typically reduced, and he didn't have to worry about Defense.
After all, it's called Fixed Damage, and it's generally the lowest tier of damage across all professions.
"I am grateful to you, Calligraphy Linchi, for your significant help," The Private School Teacher said. "However, there's another matter I need your assistance with." As he spoke, three task selections appeared before Wang Linchi.
After a look, Wang Linchi unhesitatingly chose the last one, which had the highest reward and the greatest difficulty.
[The Private School Teacher's Request - Part Three]
[Task: Please kill the Level 5 Elite Monster, the Uni-horned Black Wolf, and obtain the "Gang Chang Analects" from it.]
[Reward: Experience x1,000, Copper Coins x100, Level 5 Excellent Defensive Gear - Confucianist Robe]
"Right now, your level is insufficient to confront the Uni-horned Black Wolf. You can level up at the village entrance first," said The Private School Teacher.
This was a ga notification. After saying this, The Private School Teacher beca like a clay statue. No matter how many more tis Wang Linchi tried to talk to him, he would only repeat the sa few sentences.
The NPCs in Novice Village appeared to be preset this way. According to players who had already reached level 10 and left Novice Village, NPCs in other regions were indistinguishable from real humans.
Upon witnessing this, Wang Linchi departed directly.
Novice Village had already been replenished with a significant number of new players. For most players, reaching level 10 was not difficult; with haste, it could be achieved in ten hours.
Monsters were easy to kill, and tasks helped. Novice Village mainly served to familiarize players with the ga. There weren't any difficult requirents like needing to kill specific bosses, complete main story quests, or clear extrely challenging dungeons before being allowed to leave. Therefore, the player turnover in Novice Village was incredibly high.
Wang Linchi then proceeded to the village entrance, intending to try leveling up by fighting monsters.
The monsters at the village entrance were small birds called GuGu Birds. The first task most players received was predominantly to gather GuGu Bird feathers.
[Na: GuGu Bird]
[Level: 1]
[Attributes]
[Health: 20]
[Attack Power: 8]
[Defense: 5]
[Skills]
[Pecking: Uses its sharp beak to attack, dealing 10 points of damage to the target.]
[JingJing Call: Emits a sharp cry, reducing the damage dealt by surrounding enemies by 2 points for 1 minute.]
Believe it or not, this bird was just a typical novice monster. It didn't perform normal attacks, so its Attack Power was practically useless. The monster only used the Pecking skill, which had a significant wind-up ti. Unless players ran into it head-on, they could dodge it. The JingJing Call was basically never triggered unless the player was a complete novice.
Perhaps only a Doctor, who leaned towards support and healing, might have a bit of trouble. The vast majority, however, found it quite easy to fight.
With a normal attack followed by the basic Literary Warfare skill, Wang Linchi dealt 20 points of Fixed Damage, instantly killing a GuGu Bird.
He gained 10 experience points and also looted a GuGu Bird feather.
If it weren't for the compensation from special tasks, killing monsters would be so much faster for leveling... Just this one level 1 monster increased Wang Linchi's experience bar by a tenth.
He killed nine more GuGu Birds after this and successfully leveled up to level 2.
Just as he thought, he did not gain any additional free attributes or skill points.
Wait a minute. If I go kill the Uni-horned Black Wolf now, could I succeed?
Wang Linchi suddenly thought of this.
It's not impossible. For example, I could try summoning the Book of Records.
Subsequently, he decisively distanced himself from the crowd. He was mainly worried that so strange phenonon would occur, which would attract unwanted attention.
He found a deserted spot, quickly sensed the Book of Records, and imdiately thought of summoning it.
It won't work; it's blocked.
Wang Linchi discovered that there seed to be a barrier between the virtual ga world and the real world. The Book of Records simply didn't have the ability to forcibly cross this barrier into the ga world.
This left him feeling sowhat helpless.
If Wang Linchi forcibly summoned it, the Book of Records would highly likely end up smashed into pieces. In that case, he would definitely be the one at a great loss.
What if I use only a part of it?
Wang Linchi's eyes narrowed. The barrier was thick, far beyond his ability to break through. But if he brought a part of it in himself, perhaps it would be successful.
However, doing so might significantly diminish the potency of the Book of Records.
The Book of Records itself wasn't very useful, but the multitude of functions it carried would, at a minimum, be equivalent to an Artifact Quality item in "God-given World."
Perhaps it could transform into a Talent?
Wang Linchi couldn't help but wonder about this. After all, even Strong Luck could beco a Talent, and since the Book of Records was part of his Soul, it surely could too.
Let's give it a try. If it's successful, with the assistance of a Saint Master, forget single-handedly battling a Level 5 Elite Monster; even a Level 10 boss would be easy pickings!
Wang Linchi never intended to play fairly to begin with. If it weren't for the inability to use ga modifications, he would have maxed out all his attributes and gone on a rampage, one-shotting everything like a Holander.
