Everyone was already sitting on the sofa in the living room. Seeing me walk over with a smile, Xu Lin immediately said with a smile, "Lin Fan, how do you feel? How's the game going?"
"The game is awesome!" I gave a thumbs up and continued, "I took on a few small quests and am currently leveling up in the forest outside Novice Village. I can't say I've achieved much yet."
"What? You got quests? Where did you get them? The perverts I'm with said quests are hard to come by, and many have already been snatched up by veteran players. You're really something, kid~" Xin Yu leaned seductively on the sofa, winking at me from beside her. She was still wearing her pajamas, her two peaks trembling as they stood tall.
Xu Lin was equally surprised, saying, "You got quests? That's great! Also, have you found any equipment we can use?"
I calmly replied, "I found a green longsword for myself, a pair of green leg guards for me, and, well, a magic robe with +4 Intelligence. You and Lu Xuehan can discuss who wants it."
"What? A robe with +4 Intelligence?!" Lu Xuehan's small mouth dropped open, looking utterly charming.
"What's wrong?"
"Do you know, in my Novice Village, someone is offering 500 RMB to buy equipment with +3 Intelligence or higher! You actually found three pieces of equipment. Oh my god, are you related to the Game Administrator or something?"
Is +4 Intelligence really that amazing? If I told them that my two pieces of equipment added 6 points to Stamina, I wonder what they would think.
Xu Lin thought for a moment and said, "Let's talk about equipment after we leave Novice Village. Anyway, equipment is hard to come by right now. No one in my Novice Village has even seen green equipment. Don't rush to sell equipment; focus on increasing your level first. Oh, right, Lin Fan, which Novice Village are you in?"
"Wild Dog Village, one of the eight Novice Villages to the right of Hurricane Main City."
Lu Xuehan smiled and said, "What a coincidence! I'm in Wild Wolf Village, very close to Wild Dog Village~"
Xu Lin nodded, "That's perfect then. The rest of us are in more remote villages. Lin Fan, go pick up Xue Han and bring her to your village later. That Intelligence-boosting robe will go to Xue Han, which will make her Priest's life much safer."
"Oh, right, what talents did you all get?"
Lu Xuehan widened her eyes, "Talent? Mine seems to be an increased mana recovery speed of 1%."
Hmm... it's a bit useless, but it's better than nothing.
Xu Lin looked a little envious of Lu Xuehan and said indignantly, "My talent is actually a 1% increase in accuracy. Heavens, I don't even know what use this 1% is."
I quickly comforted her, "You can't say that. Attributes in the game are accumulated little by little. Although this 1% doesn't seem like much now, with equipment and skill bonuses, the effect might become apparent very quickly."
Xin Yu nodded in agreement and then said, "My talent is Perception. There's a certain chance to sense hidden creatures within 8 yards!"
Damn, this is definitely the bane of my Stealth! If I encounter Xin Yu, my talent would be useless!
"Lin Fan, what's your talent?" Xin Yu shook my arm, her full chest rubbing against my shoulder.
"No sexual harassment! My talent is Stealth, which is to hide in the darkness..."
Xin Yu indeed laughed wantonly, her pair of fair breasts bouncing up and down, making one's eyes ache. After a long while, she finally calmed down, wiped away her tears, and said, "I say, we really are fated, even our talents are so mutually exclusive. Why don't you give in to me tonight? Sister has been feeling a bit pent up these past two days..."
"Damn it, go find a gigolo on the street, there are plenty!"
"Don't you have to pay for a gigolo?!"
"I'm more expensive!"
"But I like..."
"..."
Just as I was speechless, Xu Lin said to me, "Lin Fan, what level are you now?"
"Level 5. What about you all?"
"Oh my god, Level 5? How did you level up so fast? I'm only Level 3 so far!"
"It's probably because of the quests. Many quests can be repeated by multiple people. You can try talking to the NPCs in the village more; you should get some rewards. Anyway, everyone should try to get a profession as early as possible. Leveling up will be much faster with professional skills. Oh, right, Sister Lin, how did you level your Mage? You didn't just hit things with a stick, did you?"
Xu Lin blinked and said, "No, before I got my profession, my physical attack and health were the same as yours, so of course I used a broken sword to hack at monsters."
I suddenly realized, "I almost forgot, that's right."
Then I turned to Lu Xuehan and said, "Wait for me at the village entrance later. I'll pick you up, and then we'll go to Wild Wolf Valley behind the mountain to level up. There's basically no one there right now."
Lu Xuehan nodded, and a blush actually flashed across her fair, delicate face. What a shy girl!
Xu Lin pointed to the bread and milk on the table and said, "Alright, everyone, hurry and eat breakfast. After eating, go online and continue leveling up. If you really can't stay awake, go to sleep. The next meal is at 7 PM. If you're too hungry, you can find something to eat in the fridge."
"Got it!"
After a quick breakfast, everyone exchanged their game IDs and then went back to their rooms. Lu Xuehan and I also entered our rooms one after another.
After putting on my helmet, I still appeared on the hillside near Wild Wolf Valley. The Dire Wolves I had killed earlier had already respawned. Now, Lu Xuehan should be waiting for me at the entrance of Wild Wolf Village, right? Just then, the communicator rang again. I opened it and saw it was Vegetable Cocoa: "Lin Fan, I'm waiting for you at the village entrance."
I immediately replied, "Okay, I'll be there in ten minutes!"
Hehe, Lu Xuehan even sounded so gentle and lovely when sending messages!
A "beep beep~" sound came, but it was a message from someone named "Vegetable Temptation": "Little lover, how are things going with Little beauty Xue Han? When are you coming to spend time with Sister?"
I swear to God, this must be that seemingly delicate yet alluring girl, Xin Yu!
"Big sister, please stop harassing me! I'm about to go take Lu Xuehan!"
Xin Yu persisted, "No problem, but go for a walk with me after dinner, how about it? I'm so bored..."
I was stunned for a moment. She also felt bored? In my perception, she should be able to play with her little breasts and not feel bored, right?
After thinking for a moment, I still replied, "Okay!"
A smiley face came back: ":)" and then no more messages.
