Lin Ye quickly returned to the rest camp. He couldn't wait to level up to 12 and then forget one of his main professions to learn blacksmithing. Even if it cost him a lot of money, he was determined to make the Boots of Swiftness. With boots that could provide such speed, Lin Ye was confident he could solo even the boss monster.
"Adventurer, your strength has surprised me greatly. In that case, you have the right to venture into a wider world. The outside world is wonderful, but it also means extreme danger. I hope we can meet again. Shorel'aran (common elven language, farewell)." Eileen Vina held the quest item that Lin Ye had submitted, her voice gentle.
Immediately afterwards, Eileen Vina extended her slender fingers and chanted a spell. When the spell was finished, a golden light rose from Lin Ye's body.
System: Task completed. You have gained 150,000 experience points.
System: Your level has been increased to level 11.

Chapter Ten: Opening the Teleportation Channel
Lin Ye quickly returned to the rest camp. He couldn't wait to level up to 12 and then forget one of his main professions to learn blacksmithing. Even if it cost him a lot of money, he was determined to make the Boots of Swiftness. With boots that could provide such speed, Lin Ye was confident he could solo even the boss monster.
"Adventurer, your strength has surprised me greatly. In that case, you have the right to venture into a wider world. The outside world is wonderful, but it also means extreme danger. I hope we can meet again. Shorel'aran (common elven language, farewell)." Eileen Vina held the quest item that Lin Ye had submitted, her voice gentle.
Immediately afterwards, Eileen Vina extended her slender fingers and chanted a spell. When the spell was finished, a golden light rose from Lin Ye's body.
System: Task completed. You have gained 150,000 experience points.
System: Your level has been increased to level 11.
System: You have mastered the following skills: Leather Armor Mastery, Swiftness, Pet Taming, Teleport - Dark Forest.
Leather Armor Mastery (Passive): When you equip leather armor, you will receive additional Agility, Intelligence, Health, and Mana. The increase in these values is based on the base attributes of the equipment.
Swiftness: Instantly increases movement speed and firing speed by 30% for 20 seconds. 180-second cooldown.
Taming Pets: You can tame various wild beasts as your pets and give them more complex commands.
Teleport - Dark Forest: After use, you can return to a random map in the Dark Forest. It requires a 10-second casting time and cannot be used in combat. The cooldown is 7 natural days.
Lin Ye successfully completed the mission to leave the village and acquired four skills, which were extremely important to him.
Looking at the new skills in his skill bar, Lin Ye was in a great mood. Since entering the game, things seemed to be going quite smoothly.
Soon, a magical teleportation array flashing with white light appeared in the camp's shelter; this was a teleportation channel to a nearby city.
System: Do you want to use the teleportation channel? Requires 500 copper coins.
Lin Ye tried it out; it showed that he could teleport to all the mid-level cities in the Golanlin Empire, but the teleportation fee was as high as 500 copper coins.
no!
Lin Ye canceled the teleportation, not because he couldn't afford the 500 copper coins, but because if he left the Dark Forest, he would have to use the teleportation skill to return, and the cooldown period for this skill was 7 days.
The Dark Forest also has many resources, such as elite monsters, treasure chests, fishing spots, ores, and herbs.
Lin Ye could easily loot these resources first and then leave.
System: Do you want to forget your "Pharmacist" life skill?
yes!
Lin Ye forgot about pharmacism and then relearned forging. Lin Ye's main profession now is miner and forging.
These two professions complement each other and work well together.
In the following days, Lin Ye kept appearing in various corners of the Dark Forest, but unfortunately, he only encountered a silver elite and got a piece of black iron equipment with very average attributes.
The good news is that Lin Ye's fishing skills improved extremely quickly, with his proficiency skyrocketing to an astonishing level 4, allowing him to catch even higher-level sea fish.
System: You have obtained [Blackmouth Fish], your fishing proficiency +50 points.
System: You have obtained the [Rainbow Fin Fish], and your fishing proficiency has increased by 70 points.
The improvement in his skill with sea fish was even more astonishing, making Lin Ye's fishing career extremely enjoyable.
The night passed quickly, and it wasn't until dawn that Lin Ye opened his backpack and took a look at his haul.
[Blackmouth fish] A type of marine fish, numbering 84.
[Rainbowfin fish] A type of marine fish, numbering 62.
A total of 146 items!
Lin Ye's proficiency
It has risen by several thousand points, and it's only a matter of time before it reaches level five.
"Hehe, this is a reward for you." Lin Ye tossed a few sea fish out of his backpack, which the falcon beside him quickly caught.
Lin Ye mailed the rest to Lao Huang, including the recipes and ingredients for delicious small fish and crocodile stew.
Lin Ye did not feel tired and chose to continue playing the game until the next day before logging off.
In the game, when Lao Huang logged in and saw the fish that Lin Ye had sent via in-game mail, he was instantly stunned.
"This...this is a sea fish?" Old Huang was a little incredulous, because he had never seen a sea fish in the more than one month he had been playing the game.
Not only Lao Huang, but it can be said that more than 95% of the players in the game have never been to the sea. All the oceans are far away from the main towns and are located in a lot of high-level maps, making them impossible to reach at this stage.
Lin Ye was able to obtain it easily because he was born on the Dark Sea map, which gave him a significant advantage.
"Brother Lin, you must be a professional gamer from some studio, right?" Old Huang couldn't help but ask at Old Huang's restaurant. Otherwise, how could one person have so many materials?
"I'd say I'm a semi-freelancer!" Lin Ye said.
Under Lao Huang's persistent questioning, Lin Ye revealed the Dark Forest.
Old Huang wasn't very familiar with the ins and outs of the game, but after hearing Lin Ye's explanation, he was immediately filled with admiration.
"Old Huang, learn the recipe for crocodile stew as I told you, then take the food to town to sell. As for the price, it'll be one hundred copper coins a serving, and we'll split the profits fifty-fifty." After logging into the game, Lin Ye instructed Old Huang. Old Huang's level and equipment weren't great, but his cooking skill was a rare level 3, higher than most players.
The first half of the sentence was fine, but when Old Huang heard the second half, his legs went weak and he almost knelt down. One hundred copper coins a share?!
Although Lao Huang didn't know much about the game, he had played for more than a month and had a basic understanding of some things. For example, food was usually sold by NPCs. You could buy a set of food for ten copper coins, and a set of food was twenty.
Even the slightly more advanced food made by players only costs a few dozen copper coins per set, but what did I just hear? One hundred copper coins per serving? Yes, per serving, not per set.
Old Huang also understood what money in the game represented. He had heard that the exchange rate was frighteningly high; a hundred copper coins would be worth several tens of dollars.
Would anyone really waste money like this?
"Isn't this price a bit...?" Old Huang began.
"That's true, it does seem a bit inappropriate. The crocodile stew is too cheap. Adding another hundred copper coins wouldn't be unreasonable! As for the delicious little fish, we can make it cheaper, one hundred copper coins a set!" Lin Ye stroked his chin.
On the other side, Lao Huang was dumbfounded.
Lin Ye felt that in the current game, there were very few foods that could add attributes, if not none. If such a food that could add a main attribute appeared at this time, players in various towns would probably go crazy.
"Well, I'll give it a try." Old Huang said, forcing himself to be honest. He was really afraid of being called a shrewd businessman. Was a mere dozen or so attribute points really worth that much money?
As for Lin Ye, he also had concerns, but his concern was not whether the products could be sold or not, but rather the subsequent sales. Lin Ye was willing to bet that once they were sold, there would definitely be a situation where supply could not meet demand.
After clearing out all the fishing spots in the Dark Forest again, Lin Ye's fishing level soared to level 5, which is extremely rare in the entire game.
System: Do you want to teleport to Dallas? 500 copper coins required.
yes!
Lin Ye completely disappeared into the dark forest and arrived in Dallas, a popular mid-sized city.
