The quality of the treasure chests I open will always increase by 3.

A wild boar immediately roared and charged towards Lin Yuan.

Just go for it!

Lin Yuan thrust out his sword, instantly creating a huge wound on the wild boar. Unfortunately, while he could kill the rabbit demon with a single strike, he couldn't do the same to the wild boar. Thump, the wild boar nudged him, causing him a sharp pain.

It only hurts a little.

With the talent bonus, 21 points in constitution is no joke.

Lin Yuan threw a punch, and with a bang, a terrifying force erupted, sending the wild boar flying. He leaped after it and swung his sword to strike again.

The infected wild boar is affected by the Tetanus Blade effect, losing 20 health points per second.

Okay, this special effect can finally be put to use now.

However, before Lin Yuan could even celebrate for three seconds, he unleashed another sword strike, and the wild boar crashed to the ground before vanishing in a blur.

You killed an infected wild boar and gained 1250 experience points.

Killing a level 5 wild boar normally yields 500 experience points, but because he was only level 2, he received a 150% experience bonus, so he gained 1250 experience points.

Congratulations on reaching level 3!

Upon reaching level 3, all attributes increase by 1. However, thanks to the Dunshan talent, Constitution is effectively increased by 3, jumping to 24 points!

continue!

Lin Yuan was about to make a move when he suddenly stopped, because he caught a glimpse of something out of the corner of his eye.

box!

He was overjoyed and, forgetting all about killing the wild boar monster, immediately turned and ran over.

Sure enough, there was a dilapidated box on the edge of the field.

Damaged treasure chest, no quality.

Equipment and items without quality are also called "white plates" and are the worst items in the game.

but!

Lin Yuan looked expectant and opened the box with reverence.

You opened the tattered treasure chest with your own hands.

[Because of your Treasure Chest King talent, the broken treasure chest has been upgraded to a silver treasure chest.]

Then, the box disappeared, and something else appeared on the ground.

It is a uniquely shaped shield with ridges on it, resembling hills.

Mountain Shield (Silver, Bound)

Constitution: +45

Special effect: When hit, a shield may be generated that lasts for 30 seconds or disappears after absorbing 500 points of damage.

Level required: 1

Lin Yuan immediately equipped the shield and looked at the character panel. The Constitution column had become a terrifying 159 (53).

159 points!

What monsters are still within the starting village area that can break his defense?

Even the bosses in the trial dungeons wouldn't work.

You have to understand that the S-rank Dunshan talent is already terrifying enough, which doubled his physique. But if he didn't have a silver-rank shield, his physique would only be 24 points. How could it be as exaggerated as it is now?

Therefore, his Treasure Chest King talent is too overpowered.

Silver equipment shouldn't exist below level 10!

No, not to mention silver armor, there shouldn't even be bronze or iron armor. You need to be level 10 to wear the lowest level iron armor!

Therefore, this shield is definitely overpowered.

Unfortunately, only one item was obtained.

Lin Yuan thought somewhat unsatisfiedly, but the beginner's box is special; a normal treasure chest can only yield one or two items.

Why not just give us a few more treasure chests?

Lin Yuan laughed heartily and charged towards the wild boar.

One by one?

No, I'm incredibly strong right now, how come I only pulled one?

Immediately, he disturbed the wild boar's den, and a large number of wild boars charged at him.

Raise your shield and block!

With a series of loud bangs, Lin Yuan immediately noticed that the shield's special effect had been activated due to the high frequency of attacks. An oval-shaped shield, resembling glass and transparent, was formed around him, but due to the refraction of light, traces of the shield could still be seen.

Lin Yuan smiled faintly.

With his current physical strength, even without triggering the shield's special effect, these wild boars would have a hard time breaking through his defenses—being poked by them would at most cause him a little pain.

Lin Yuan thrust his sword forward.

He focused on one of the boars, and when a notification appeared that the boar was infected with tetanus, he switched to another boar and continued to attack it. He used his skills whenever they were available, not wanting to waste cooldowns, and used basic attacks when he didn't have any skills. His goal was to infect the boar with tetanus and cause it to lose health continuously.

This can maximize his output.

He wouldn't have dared to play like this before. Even if he leveled up to level 3, 24 points of constitution wouldn't necessarily guarantee that monsters wouldn't break through his defenses. But with an extra shield, things are completely different.

Kill monsters without taking damage!

Twenty seconds later, wild boars began to die in large numbers.

You have gained 1000 experience points.

You have gained 1000 experience points.

"..."

The game's prompts kept floating by.

When a level 3 player kills a level 5 monster, the experience bonus is reduced to 100%.

Look at the experience bar, it's already increased by 30%!

Hey, a wild boar even produced some goods.

It is a piece of equipment.

Damaged Chainmail (White Item)

Location: Breastplate

Level required: 1

It doesn't add any attributes, but this is the normal equipment that new players can get.

What's the point of having this equipment?

If it were back in the early days of SuperStar, this thing could be sold to NPCs for a little money, but now it's completely useless.

carry on.

Lin Yuan drew his sword and charged towards the second wave of wild boar monsters.

Killing level 5 monsters at level 3 already grants a 100% experience bonus, and with him pulling several monsters at once, the special effect of the Wind Blade of Lavage can barely be considered area damage, making his monster-killing efficiency incredibly high.

Others would have to wait for the monsters to heal even after killing just one, how could they possibly keep killing monsters like him!

It's just... tiring, not only physically, but also mentally.

Fighting monsters all the time is so boring and tedious!

Lin Yuan had killed dozens of wild boars and was panting heavily, but when he glanced at his experience bar, which was almost full, he mustered his remaining strength and started killing monsters again.

Take a break after reaching level 4.

Congratulations on reaching level 4!
