Chapter 4: Breakthrough to Trainee Warrior

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Upon feeling the emptiness inside his body, Meng Lei was rendered speechless—one single fireball had actually exhausted his magic power!

This consumption is overbearing! I need more magic power!

Meng Lei set his sights on the Fire Wolf. Meng Lei had never come into contact with magic before, so he did not know how to acquire magic power. Currently, he could obtain it by picking it up, and when looking around the whole field, only the Fire Wolf may drop the magic-power light balls!

Although no more magic-power light balls dropped in the next few minutes, some other light balls dropped. Meng Lei’s wild wishes failed to be fulfilled, but his strength was steadily growing, and the Physical Body Constitution column quickly broke through 10!

The system’s cold cue tone sounded just in time. “Ding! Congratulations, host, for achieving a breakthrough and becoming a Trainee Warrior. Please keep working hard, host, and strive to make another breakthrough!”

“Trainee Warrior?”

The stats interface changed as well!

I’m a Trainee Warrior now? Meng Lei was a bit dumbstruck. This speed of advancement is too fast, right?

A Trainee Warrior!

Though there was the word “trainee” in it, it actually made him much stronger than ordinary people!

Magical Beast Village was located on the edge of the Magical Beast Ridge, and people relied on the ridge to make their living. The villagers made a living by hunting and collecting herbs, but great strength was required to traverse the Magical Beast Ridge, and the villagers were all tough and strong!

Yet among the almost one hundred villagers, there weren’t but a few Warriors. Many villagers were limited in natural talent. Despite being slightly stronger physically, there weren’t many who could become Trainee Warriors!

For Meng Lei to get promoted from a member of “the old and the weak”, who were to be protected, to a Trainee Warrior, his improvement speed was definitely astonishing!

Trainee Warriors are very strong!

I’ve seen them tear apart tigers and leopards with bare hands and beat up wild boars with fists. They are even fiercer than those Ding kings on Earth!

I’m also a Trainee Warrior now!

Am I just as strong as them?

Should I give it a go?

Meng Lei looked at his thin arms and legs, picked up a rake, and moved cautiously!

His footsteps became lighter!

And the rake felt lighter!

Roar...

A wild boar with a black face and protruding tusks, almost two meters long, just happened to be rushing over. Its hair stood up like steel pins, while its tusks were extremely sharp, shining with cold light.

If an ordinary person got hit by this thing, they would definitely be ripped apart.

“Take my rake hit!” Meng Lei yelled, waved the rake, and smashed it at the boar!

“What are you doing? Retreat immediately!”

Job, a member of the guards standing beside him, got shocked, and his eyelids twitched. He hurried to raise his big sword and slashed it toward the Hairy Wild Boar!

The Hairy Wild Boar is extremely strong and destructive, and even I have to use all my strength to fight it. Meng Lei is only a little kid, isn’t he looking for his own death, running up to it?

Yet in the next moment, Job was stunned!

Crack!

The rake crashed onto the head of the Hairy Wild Boar, and like a rake hitting onto a watermelon, it produced a crisp cracking sound, and the Hairy Wild Boar’s head directly opened up!

Its brain burst, and blood splashed!

The Hairy Wild Boar made a wail and then went silent. Then, under inertia, it continued running for a distance before loudly crashing onto the ground, eventually lying motionless and completely dead!

“It’s... dead?”

Job’s mouth opened wide. He was feeling that his brain was not working properly. “Meng Lei... actually killed the wild boar? How is this possible?”

“I killed this wild boar? A Trainee Warrior is actually this strong?”

Meng Lei was inexplicably excited!

“Ding! 1 Hairy Wild Boar killed, 10 gold coins gained!” The cue tone of the system sounded!

“10 gold coins?”

Meng Lei was stunned!

“Ding! Friendly reminder: After the host kills the target, the corresponding wealth points can be obtained!”

The system explained coldly, “Wealth points represent the wealth owned by the host. It has many uses. It can either be used to improve various attributes or for consumption!”

“I see!”

Meng Lei nodded to show he understood. He was not in a hurry to use these 10 gold coins, so he charged forward to kill the other beasts!

“Ding! Dropped item detected. Will you pick it up?”

“Yes, pick it up!”

“Ding! Pickup successful. Host’s Physical Body Constitution +3!”

Yes! That’s the way!

That’s the feeling of becoming stronger!

Coming to the village entrance was the right decision indeed!

The pleasure of becoming stronger was intoxicating!

Meng Lei loved this feeling!

Continue!

Meng Lei advanced and attacked the next beast. This time, it was a python-like beast, about 10 meters long, covered entirely in green scales!

Its tongue moved in and out, its eyes shone with a cold light. It came attacking in an S-shaped route, its slippery body looked nauseating!

“Go and die!”

Meng Lei waved his rake and directly severed the python’s head!

“Ding! 1 Green-Scaled Python killed, 20 gold coins gained!”
