I was so scared that I put all my points into health.

Chapter 3 The Entanglement of Quests and Job Changes (1)

The receptionist added that after becoming an adventurer, one can also change jobs to various professions. Initially, one is only an apprentice, but as one's strength increases, one can continuously advance to more powerful professions.

Upon hearing the receptionist's words, Wang Xiaoyi's eyes lit up, and he eagerly asked, "What kinds of jobs are available?"

The receptionist smiled and introduced, "We have many professions here. For example, warriors have strong melee abilities and are good at charging into battle; mages can manipulate elemental power and unleash powerful magical attacks; priests can heal the wounded and dispel negative status effects; assassins are good at stealth and assassination, and can strike unexpectedly in battle; hunters are proficient in archery and tracking, and can attack enemies from a distance."

As Wang Xiaoyi listened to the receptionist's vivid descriptions of the various professions, a flame seemed to ignite within him. The descriptions of warriors, their fearless and valiant figures charging into battle, involuntarily reminded him of the dashing figure of a hero wielding the "Sword of Stars." A hero was like a towering mountain, standing firm amidst darkness and danger; each swing of the sword seemed to sever the shackles of fate, its immense power capable of overcoming all obstacles in the world.

Wang Xiaoyi felt his blood surging through his body, a strong desire taking root in his heart. He couldn't wait to become a warrior, to fight like a hero, to protect everything he cherished. His lips trembled slightly, and he was about to loudly declare his choice when, at this critical moment, that annoying system notification suddenly shattered the hopeful atmosphere with a "ding."

"Cowardice effect activated. Requesting to become a priest." The cold, mechanical voice, like icy frost, mercilessly extinguished the flame that had just ignited in Renn's heart.

Upon hearing the notification sound, Wang Xiaoyi's eyes widened, his face filled with anger and helplessness. He clenched his fists, veins bulging on his forehead, and waved them at the air as if he could beat up the invisible system. He kept muttering, "You damn system, you're just messing things up! How am I supposed to use the Hero's Star Sword after being promoted to priest? It's like giving a chef a peerless sword but making him do tailor work! It's infuriating! You always mess things up at crucial moments, don't you have any sense of propriety at all?!"

It was as if a bucket of cold water had been poured over him, leaving him completely dejected. Wang Xiaoyi hung his head, his eyes filled with frustration and annoyance, constantly blaming himself for his damned cowardice.

After a while, Wang Xiaoyi's anger subsided somewhat. He took a deep breath and thought to himself, "Oh well, I can only accept reality. At worst, I'll fight in another way. Priests have their strengths too." He began to comfort himself, trying to see this frustrating situation from a different perspective.

Wang Xiaoyi recalled his past gaming experiences. Back then, priests had skills like Holy Light Attack. Although they weren't quite the powerful attacks he'd imagined, they were still a form of attack. He shook his head with a wry smile, thinking self-deprecatingly, "With my current attribute points, I'm practically a weakling who can only put them into health. Even if I cast Holy Light Arrow, how much damage would it do? Probably just enough to tickle those little monsters. It's laughable." Thinking about this, he even laughed at his own thoughts.

Wang Xiaoyi nodded helplessly, knowing he didn't have many choices. Although he harbored a deep longing to become a warrior, he could only begin his adventure as a priest for now. He secretly vowed to overcome his cowardice and find his own fighting style in the future, striving to become as powerful as the heroes of the past.

The receptionist watched Wang Xiaoyi's changing expressions quietly, from anger to helplessness, and finally to self-consolation and a bitter smile. She was a little confused, but seeing that Wang Xiaoyi had finally returned to normal, she continued, "The job change quest is relatively easy. You need to do a simple quest to get our guild's job change certificate."

With the help of the Adventurers' Guild staff, Wang Xiaoyi successfully registered as an Iron-rank Adventurer and decided to embark on the path of becoming a Priest. His job advancement quest was to hunt down slimes.

Because he had previously allocated all his attribute points to health, and the system did not have a setting to force health loss, his attack power and the slime's defense power canceled each other out, resulting in each attack only dealing 0 damage.

Slimes are seemingly weak but actually resilient creatures. They launch continuous attacks, but Wang Xiaoyi, with his high health points, is locked in a stalemate. Time passes second by second, from morning till night, and the battle seems to have become an endless tug-of-war.

The prolonged battle left Wang Xiaoyi utterly exhausted. His eyelids grew heavy, and his consciousness gradually faded. Finally, during a lull in the slime's attacks, he unknowingly fell asleep in the forest.

While Wang Xiaoyi was fast asleep, the low-level monsters in the forest, like sharks smelling blood, swarmed towards their unsuspecting target. Their eyes gleamed with greed as they began to relentlessly attack the sleeping Wang Xiaoyi.

Wang Xiaoyi's body was struck by repeated attacks, and pain spread throughout his body, but his consciousness remained immersed in his dream, unable to perceive the danger outside.

Time ticked by, and suddenly the system screen began to vibrate, followed by lines of error code scrolling across the screen. The system seemed to have fallen into a state of chaos, and hidden functions that shouldn't have been triggered were being activated.

System notifications rang out incessantly, each sound like a lightning bolt piercing the night sky, shaking Wang Xiaoyi's soul.

"Ding! The passive skill 'Damage Reflection' for life-related skills has been successfully activated."

"Ding! The life-type passive skill 'Auto Heal' has been successfully activated."

"Ding! The passive skill 'Auto Holy Light' for life has been successfully activated."

"Ding! The passive skill 'Barrier of Light' has been successfully activated."

...One after another, life-related passive skills were activated, and Wang Xiaoyi's body underwent astonishing changes with the help of the system.

Damage Reflection: When damaged, there is a chance that a portion of the damage will be reflected back to the attacker. Proficiency: Beginner.

Automatic Healing: Automatically restores a certain amount of health after taking damage. Proficiency: Beginner.

Automatic Holy Light: Randomly launches a Holy Light attack on enemies, with a certain chance to stun them. Proficiency: Beginner.

Light Barrier: Creates a barrier of light around the body, which can withstand a certain amount of damage. Proficiency: Beginner.

Wang Xiaoyi sensed these changes in his sleep. His body felt as if it were enveloped by a warm power, the pain gradually lessened, and his life force steadily recovered.

After an unknown amount of time, Wang Xiaoyi finally woke up with a start. He opened his eyes and found himself lying on the ground unharmed, surrounded by materials and props left behind by the monster.

He looked at his body in astonishment, feeling the powerful energy surging within him. He tried to cast a healing spell, and a soft light gathered in his palm before rapidly spreading throughout his body. He felt his injuries healing at a visible speed.

Wang Xiaoyi was filled with surprise and joy. He knew that he had turned misfortune into blessing and gained these precious life-related passive skills.

He stood up, dusted himself off, and confidently continued his adventure. He knew the road ahead was long, but he was prepared to face all challenges and opportunities.

In addition, Wang Xiaoyi gained four types of elemental resistance, which will make him more resilient and less susceptible to various elemental damage. These resistances include:

1. Fire Resistance: Reduces fire damage taken. Proficiency: Beginner level, can be increased by contact with fire or taking fire damage.

2. Frost Resistance: Reduces frost damage taken. Proficiency: Beginner; proficiency can be gained by coming into contact with frost or taking frost damage.

3. Lightning Resistance: Reduces damage taken from lightning. Proficiency: Beginner level; proficiency can be gained by touching lightning or taking lightning damage.

4. Toxin Resistance: Reduces the damage from toxins. Proficiency: Beginner level; proficiency can be gained through contact with toxins or by suffering toxin damage.

Feeling the changes in his body and the new abilities he gained, Wang Xiaoyi burst into laughter. "This is more like it! This is real life!" he thought. Just then, the system notification sounded again, bringing exciting news.

System notification: "Ding-dong! Achievement features are now available. Ding-dong! Title features are now available. You have obtained the following achievements and titles:"

A new player starts with 50 HP at level 1 and receives 20 attribute points as a starting character. Each attribute point increases HP by 10. Currently, Wang Xiaoyi's passive skill grants a 12% HP bonus, bringing his total HP to 280. Due to the passive skill "damage reflection," he defeated many monsters while sleeping, allowing him to reach level 6 without engaging in combat. Since each level up does not grant additional attribute bonuses, the system rewards 5 attribute points per level. Currently, the system forces all attribute points to be allocated to HP, bringing Wang Xiaoyi's total HP to 530.

The process of Wang Xiaoyi's health points increasing can be calculated step by step:

1. Initial health and attribute points:

- New player level 1 health: 50 points

- Initial attribute points: 20 points

- Health gained per attribute point: 10 points

- Passive skill health bonus: 12%

2. Calculate initial health:

- Health points gained from attribute points: 20 * 10 = 200 points

- Base health + Health gained from attribute points = 50 + 200 = 250 points

- Passive skill bonus: 250 * 12% = 30 points

- Initial total health = 250 + 30 = 280 points

3. Upgrade process:
