Crossing the Ark, I was picked up by Penguin Logistics at the beginning

"You've made great progress. It seems that you really have a talent for swordplay." Texas picked up Mo Yu's wooden sword again. "I'm very curious about what you experienced during the day I was away."

Texas found it hard to imagine that Mo Yu, who couldn't even take on her three moves a day ago, was able to transform the theory of swordsmanship into sword skills in just one day and even take on her attacks. Such a growth rate surprised her.

Mo Yu stepped back quickly to avoid Texas' sword, and the latter immediately rushed forward and attacked even more fiercely.

One move, two moves, Mo Yu felt that after yesterday's improvement in sword skills and the enhancement of his mental strength, although it was extremely difficult, he was able to keep up with Texas' attack speed and react instinctively.

But the absolute gap in strength still existed. He relied on instinct and luck to barely hold on for seven moves, but in the end, because he was half a beat slow to react, Texas knocked the weapon out of his hand.

"Well done." He reached out and pulled up Mo Yu who was lying on the ground. "Your swordsmanship... I've never seen you use it before. Did you figure it out on your own?"

"Hey, it's a secret from my hometown." Mo Yu naturally wouldn't say that it was the system that taught him, so he gave a vague answer.

"Yeah." Texas didn't delve into this question. After all, everyone has secrets that they don't want to tell, so she naturally wouldn't delve into it. "Very good sword skills. At this rate of growth, you'll be able to stand on your own soon."

Mo Yu was a little surprised by Texas's evaluation, "I'm just a newcomer..."

[Host, do not underestimate yourself. Your current strength has reached the average level of three-star operators in Rhodes Island.]

"?"

Hearing the prompt sound in his mind, Mo Yu was stunned.

Have I reached the average level of a three-star operator?

"So how many stars is Texas?"

[Five stars, have you never played the game? ]

“??? Is this star rating the same as in the game?”

Mo Yu was overjoyed. Has he made such great progress? Lingyu, a member of the Lateran Guard, and Xiangcao, a Black Steel employee, were only three-star level. How could he compare with them now?

He remembered that Texas's panel seemed to have 5 A's and one B, and he didn't know how big the gap was between him and Texas now.

[If we only consider physical fitness, then this is the case, but the host lacks actual combat experience]

Mo Yu then realized that in addition to physical fitness, there is also such a thing as practical experience.

With the same physical fitness, special forces soldiers on the battlefield are always better fighters than coaches in the gym. Even though the Ranger is only a 2-star, many -stars in Rhodes Island cannot compare to him, the Scimitar of the Crimson Valley, in terms of actual combat experience.

"You, why can't you be more confident?" Texas said in a light tone, "I don't want my savior to not have the confidence to stand on his own."

"Thank you, Texas." Mo Yu nodded. He had no standard to measure against before and could only use Texas as a comparison. Naturally, his self-confidence was completely destroyed.

After all, you can't beat them, and you have to be beaten every day.

It was not until yesterday's sparring with Croissant that he was able to regain a little confidence.

Today, with the recognition from Texas and the certification from the system, he felt like he was back to normal. The hellish training over the past month had not been in vain, and he had indeed grown.

"I will take you with me on the next field mission." Texas looked at Mo Yu and said, "You need to step up your training during this period and be prepared."

"?" A question mark popped up on Mo Yu's head, and his face was full of confusion.

Texas smiled and said, "After all, you have been here for more than a month. If you don't go on a mission, the emperor will probably be unable to bear it and fire you directly. You don't want to end up living on the streets of Longmen, do you?"

Looking back, Mo Yu realized that he had indeed never been on a mission and had received the Emperor's monthly salary in vain. However, Angelica and Croissant, who lived next door to him, went on missions very frequently. Mo Yu did not run into them very often. But even Texas, who gave him special training, would occasionally deliver goods at night, which made him seem to be lagging behind.

"The environment at Penguin Logistics is so good, I certainly don't want to be homeless, so I'll go on this mission." Thinking of this, Mo Yu nodded. He had spent the past month training in Texas, and the system also pointed out that he lacked practical experience. This was like a pillow being given to him when he was sleepy.

But isn't Penguin Logistics a logistics company? If I want to gain practical experience from delivery tasks, isn't that just hoping for something to go wrong? It's better not to have any accidents.

"Don't worry, the first mission for a newcomer should just be delivering some small things, nothing will happen." Texas nodded, "I will apply to the emperor and go with you."

Mo Yu seemed to hear the sound of a flag being raised, but if Texas was with him on this mission, there shouldn't be any problem.

After a whole day of training, Mo Yu said goodbye to Texas and returned to the dormitory.

As soon as I sat down, a reminder sounded in my mind.

[Side quest accepted: Successfully complete the host's first mission in Penguin Logistics, rewards, random Texas favorability, random Penguin Logistics popularity]

"?"

After hearing the system's prompt, Mo Yu finally realized that this could also be considered a task?

[Host gains the buff effect [Good at Practice]. Before the mission begins, the host's training effect is increased to 150%. There is a chance to gain skill enhancement during practice. Please seize the opportunity to strengthen your practice.]

"I didn't realize that you are such a reliable system that can provide me with just the right amount of support."

【...】

The system is silent.

"Wait a minute, you're giving me so many buffs at once, my first mission won't be too difficult, right?"

【...】

The system is still silent.

"Oh no, I have a bad feeling." Mo Yu felt something was wrong. "It's not like I'm being robbed on my first delivery mission."

......

A week passed quickly. During this week, thanks to the buff of [Good at Practice], Mo Yu's sword skills improved by leaps and bounds. Even Texas was surprised at his rapid progress.

From three moves at the beginning, to five moves, and later to seven moves, Mo Yu was able to hold out against Texas for longer and longer periods of time. The day before the start of the mission, his [West Wind Swordsmanship. Knight] was successfully upgraded to level 5, and he also lasted ten moves against Texas for the first time.

……

"Okay, after preparing for so long, it's time to stretch your muscles." Texas stood behind Mo Yu and pushed him into the emperor's office.
