Legend of the Pinnacle of Online Games

Chapter 36 Touching the Corpse
The death of the Bloodthirsty War Demon brought Lin Hanchuan three rewards at the same time.

"Ding! Congratulations on successfully killing an 8th-level Lord-class Berserker War Demon, triggering the special reward of the [Demon Attribute Token], gaining 1 point of free attribute, 1 point of hidden attribute, and increasing the progress of [Demon Hunter] by 1%!"

"Please note that the free attribute points obtained through the 1-star rare item - [Demon Attribute Token] have now accumulated to 10. If you kill a demon while this item is equipped, you will no longer gain any more free attribute points."

Listen to the system beeps.

Lin Hanchuan opened the panel.

One free attribute point should be allocated to Intelligence, as more spell attack is always better.

With one hidden attribute point, I continued to invest in Luck. On my very first day in the starting village, I encountered a Starborn, partly thanks to my Luck attribute.

"Ding! Congratulations! You have successfully completed the F-rank hidden quest—[The Little Girl's Request], quest rating: SSS!"

Reward received: Elf Merchant Summoning Order!

The hidden quest was also completed incidentally.

The whole process was incredibly easy.

Lin Hanchuan especially missed that feeling of being invincible and crushing everything.

As for the [Elf Merchant Summoning Order], it's a bonus.

Turn off your personal panel.

Lin Hanchuan looked at the corpse of the Bloodthirsty War Demon.

Under the influence of the Demon Attribute Token, the Bloodthirsty War Demon did not drop any items. However, Dark Legend took out a Demon Identity Token from his pocket and handed it to Lin Hanchuan.

[56-05]

"03, 05, 06, 07, 10."

"We've already killed five of the top ten demons in this newbie village!"

As Lin Hanchuan gazed at the Demon Identity Token, the little wooden figures swaying around him made a new discovery.

"Brother Huang, there's a corpse here!"

The little wooden figure lifted the straw mat under the corner of the courtyard wall, revealing a blurry corpse with white hair and an aged face.

“It must be the little girl’s father!” Lin Hanchuan replied.

The Starborn are half-elves, possessing the longevity characteristic of elves, living for several decades, which is equivalent to six or seven years old in humans.

However, her father must have been a handsome human in his youth, and perhaps even a smooth talker. Otherwise, how could her mother, a star elf, have fallen for an ordinary human and borne him a child?

at this time.

"Ding!"

It's a friend message notification.

Lin Hanchuan glanced at it; it was the "Grow Bigger and Stronger Chat Group".

It was Cao Renjie sending the message.

Cao Renjie was very excited in the group: "The guide on distinguishing between villagers and demons that the captain gave me is really helpful. I have already killed four demons, three elites and one lord. The experience points given are really plentiful!"

"Brothers, look at my level. I'm already level six, and I should be able to reach level ten tonight."

Long Xiaochen also chimed in.

Long Xiaochen replied with no small amount of boasting: "Brother Jie, you're too slow! I'm already level seven! I've killed two lord-level demons and five elite demons. It's so much more comfortable to play as a summoner. Just let the pets go and I can ambush from behind."

"I still have an F-rank hidden mission on me. Once the mission is completed, my combat power should increase further."

"Brother Jie, how about we have a contest? Whoever reaches level 10 first will have to call the loser 'daddy'."

The summoner wanted to compete with him, a tank, in leveling up, which infuriated Cao Renjie. "Long Xiaochen, you bastard, have the guts to compete with the captain."

Long Xiaochen said helplessly, "No way, I'll compete with you!"

Lin Hanchuan smiled upon seeing this.

These two guys used to bicker and joke around with each other back in Zone 1.

Even after arriving in District Nine, the same problem persists. Long Xiaoyue has appeared.

However, he didn't come to mediate the fight; he came to ask Lin Hanchuan a question.

Long Xiaoyue: "@Lin Hanchuan, Captain, why are you stuck at level 9? It's been like this for a long time."

Lin Hanchuan glanced at the little wooden figure squatting beside Xingchen's father's corpse, touching it, and replied in the group: "I got a rare item - Demon Attribute Token. Killing demons can drop attribute points, but the prerequisite is that you can't get experience points or drops from demons!"

"I'll grind experience after I get all the attributes."

Long Xiaochen was squatting in front of a villager's house, while his three pets were inside killing a demon. When he saw Lin Hanchuan's message, his eyes widened. "Damn, Captain, what kind of god-like luck do you have? You got a rare item right at the start, and it even boosts attribute points."

Cao Renjie, who was sitting in the courtyard drinking potions to recover his health, with the still-warm demon corpse under his feet, looked on with envy: "Captain, is this our luck finally turning around? The Ninth District is indeed a lucky place for our Night Owl Squad. Praise to the official team, praise to the game planners!"

Long Xiaochen and Cao Renjie were both a little excited.

Some people have played for years and never seen a rare item, but their own captain got one right at the start of the game.

Lin Hanchuan calmly replied: "Don't get excited. It's only a one-star item, so it's not unique. You can get a maximum of 10 points in free attributes and a maximum of 3 points in hidden attributes."

"Captain, how did you get it? Tell me in detail!" Long Xiaochen couldn't wait any longer.

"Here's what happened..." Lin Hanchuan explained in detail before giving his final reply.

"That's the whole process. See if you can replicate it. Pay attention to the hidden quests related to demons. If you get a high rating, you may get very good rewards."

Long Xiaochen and Cao Renjie are now following Lin Hanchuan's path—killing demons. Demon attribute tokens are not unique, meaning they could also obtain one.

"Thank you, Captain, I'll give it a try!" Long Xiaochen was the first to log off.

Cao Renjie followed closely behind, "I'll give it a try too!"

Long Xiaoyue stayed in the group for a while longer, but seeing that Lin Hanchuan had no further messages, she quietly left.

Lin Hanchuan left the chat group.

The little wooden figure is still touching the corpse.

Experienced players have a habit of looting corpses, especially NPCs. Usually, no items will drop after an NPC is killed, but there is a high chance of finding something valuable on their body.

Both the Underworld and the heavily armored warriors cast their gazes toward the little wooden figure.

After touching it once, the little wooden figure shook its head in puzzlement.

As a father of a Starborn, he had absolutely nothing.

"Never mind if you don't have it, let's go!"

Back next door.

The little girl named "Star" is still standing in the same spot.

As soon as he entered, Lin Hanchuan said.

"Star, we've killed that demon!"

"As for your father's body..."

The heavily armored man carried in the corpse wrapped in a mat, looked at Xingchen with teary eyes, and asked Lin Hanchuan directly, "Brother Huang, should we let her take a look?"

"No need!" Lin Hanchuan shook his head. Her father's corpse was already a bloody mess, devoured beyond recognition by the Bloodthirsty War Demon. Letting the little girl see it would only add to her psychological burden.

Lin Hanchuan ordered the heavily armored soldier to carry the body back.

It was simply to give the little girl a satisfactory explanation.

"Bury him, bury him in the yard!"

"It can be considered as letting him return to his roots."
