Is the person you sculpt as cute as me?

They descended upon the enemy in a riotous and sudden display.

"?!"

Only a little bit of the boss's health was taken away.

In fact, the attack from the novice was too weak, and the rebel leader did not realize that it was an enemy attack at the first time.

But it's hydrated enough.

"thaw."

At this moment, all the ice and snow inside and outside the room that Yu Man could control responded to all the magic power she infused into it.

All the ice and snow melted at her will.

After that--

"freeze."

As she wished, she froze the enemy's breath.

To be precise, it pounced on the enemy's mouth and nose.

The diffuse water vapor turned into solid ice, completely freezing the decadent but handsome face of the rebel leader.

He instinctively wanted to breathe, but he inhaled more water vapor, which froze his respiratory tract due to Yu Man's magic.

Although his hands and body were full of strength, wanting to break the ice on his face or use some skills, he was frozen along with the chair due to the water vapor that Yu Man continued to inject.

If it weren't for the snow-covered home field, Yu Man wouldn't be able to do this.

But when she was in the Novice Village, she was familiar with the rebel leader-type bosses, the terrain, and what the result would be even if she had a novice staff with zero specialization.

"Suffocation", "freezing", "fragile", "unable to move", "hypothermia".

Many negative conditions were thus accumulated on him.

He tilted his body back, and with a look of unwillingness, hatred, inexplicableness and helplessness, he pierced through the transparent ice that had already covered his head and stabbed Yu Man above his head.

But Yu Man just looked at him calmly, waiting for him to die.

It took—not long.

"The defection of 'Winter Late Musician' Blom Judah has ended."

Therefore, 23 specialization points were obtained.

Currently, there are a total of 23 specialization points waiting to be allocated."

In the field of vision, faint text floated out system information.

The large amount of experience players receive is, in essence, a silent eulogy for him.

The frozen corpse turned into magic and returned to this world.

Yu Man pulled away more bricks nearby, thawed the ice that brought victory, and then formed a staircase.

Behind her, a few snowflakes floated into the house through the cave entrance, and she seemed to be doing the same.

He walked down step by step along the ice and snow stairs he had carved.

The footsteps echoed in the silent room, stopping in front of the rainbow-colored treasure chest.

No need for a key, it's already unlocked. No need for caution, it has no traps.

——Yu Man opened it.

Suddenly, the rainbow color emitted by the box faded away, but was replaced by a dazzling array of items inside the box.

It also popped up a window, displaying the icons and names of each item, with a long scroll bar on the right.

On top was the currency—Old World gold coins, 1320 in all. They were packed in a heavy leather bag.

“…So many.” And no silver coins?

If this amount was converted into silver coins in the current world, which is the common currency of the mainland... She quickly calculated that she could rent two shops in the main city.

How long had this world been running before the player entered it, to the point where this box had accumulated so much? Was it simply good luck? Or was it a bonus from the second round?

The other items in the box are also quite rich.

A variety of enchanting materials and crafting materials, although their class is not high due to regional restrictions, their value is not low.

There are also several pieces of equipment for each profession, but because the black market is not operating, the system generates very few of these items, so their value is average.

But there was one piece of jewelry—an ear clip.

Pure sky-blue gemstones, cut into prismatic shapes, are set on pale iridescent metal wire.

Yu Man temporarily ignored everything else and picked up the ear clip.

"A sixth-tier accessory, used by magicians... Pretty impressive. Let me see what the item's abilities are..."

Just like an enchanter can use their professional abilities to grant items skills and special effects, some items are born with skills, often rare ones. Fortunately, this ear clip is no exception.

"Looking into the distance"

"It will grant the user clear vision, even in confusion."

004·Illegal

Although the description seemed confusing, Yu Man recognized this skill.

"Look into the distance."

Simply put, it is a very high-quality "vision" enhancement skill.

As long as this passive skill is in effect, it can enhance vision, allowing you to see farther, more clearly, and without fatigue.

In addition, it also grants resistance to interference with vision, so that even if it is interfered with by the environment or skills, it will still be clear.

"That's great." She couldn't help but sigh.

Unfortunately, this accessory is not a top-tier item, so it is not eligible for a unique name and is simply named by the system based on its material.

"Clear Sky Stone Ear Clip" - not bad at all.

Because the material itself is magical, the wearer does not need to supply magic power. Otherwise, with the current novice level and equipment, Yu Man would have all his magic power drained away by this thing, and even suffer magic damage.

Just like that, Yu Man put the sky blue color on her right ear.

After the initial discomfort, it resonated with the little remaining magic power in the body, and the skill was activated.

Like fog being blown away by the wind, like the clear sky after the rain - Yu Man's vision became much clearer.

So her skill immediately came into play, allowing her to see that there were still things in the box that had not been counted.

Almost, almost... Fortunately, fortunately.

What remains are some treasure maps and keepsakes from the old world.

Both of these types of items are used to open copies, and each has its own purpose. In short, they consume a huge amount of hard currency.

But there are still some fragments buried in the deepest part of the treasure chest.

It was made of parchment, scribbled with low-level magic patterns, incomplete and inconspicuous.

"Oh, maps." Yu Man recognized what they were.

In the game, although players do not have to complete the long and boring main storyline, there is one thing that all players will work together and act spontaneously: collecting maps.

Because it will reveal the vastness of the world and guide travel.

And tell players how much land and content are waiting to be explored.

After finally finishing the inventory of the spoils, Yu Man directly took out some of the enchanting materials inside, increased the enchantment strength of the backpack to the limit, and barely packed all the things in.

Even if you want to continue hunting monsters, the gains will not fit into your backpack.

There's no other way. Even though I took a long detour to kill a boss, it's time to go to the main city.

……

Yu Man walked more cautiously along the original route.

Her backpack contained a vast fortune, at this stage. If she were killed by a player in an illegal area, all these things would belong to someone else.

By then... I'll probably quit the game right away, abandon it, and curse it for the rest of the year...

Even after being addicted to it for three years in Act 1, she still felt intensely nervous.

But theoretically, most players are in the Novice Village... Those who progress quickly and have high talent should be in the main city. Those who want to start hunting will also be around the main city. As for these deep illegal areas, no one should come...

She observed everything she could see with clear vision.

Being on guard all the way, it was safe. Yu Man was already close to the edge of the area.

After another minute or two of travel, you'll reach a safe zone. In this area, you don't even need to avoid monsters because their density is low and their aggressiveness is low.

but--

Also because of the low density of monsters, the player's figure becomes more conspicuous.

Especially the faint line of personal information above their heads.

The two players, coincidentally, stepped into this area at the same time.

"...Teaming up." Upon realizing this, Yu Man's spirit immediately tensed up, becoming a hundred times sharper than before.

They also noticed Yu Man, with intense surprise flashing in their eyes, and immediately began to communicate with each other... Obviously, they had no intention of avoiding him.

This is not good.

Those who could penetrate such an illegal area at this stage of the server launch were the kind of people who were born to play this game. Even worse, they were actually working in a team...

They've also experienced fighting monsters, which is why they'll venture into more dangerous areas to gain more. Furthermore, if they're in a team, they've likely sparred with each other and have a basic understanding of fighting other players.

It took Yu Man half a second to figure out everything.

He used the remaining half second to judge whether he could avoid the fight and leave the illegal area - no.

One of the players is named Ni Xiaolu, and she is very good at chasing with the bow weapon in her hand.

Another player named Qiqi even held a novice healing staff.

Damn, it even brings milk—Yu Man sighed in his heart.

This second was valuable to the two players. They used it to make the decision to attack. The reason was simple: the system allowed it.

Yu Man immediately threw away all distracting thoughts, leaving only the mentality of "come if you want to fight."

Her tension melted away, leaving only calmness.

It comes from instinct, from calmness, and from extremely rich experience.

Because this is what she has been experiencing every day for three years.

Although she calls herself a lone PVE player, in this world, any PVE is accompanied by huge PVP risks, but she always walks above all risks.

The easiest way to have a stable and safe PVE is to win all PVPs.

——She has been doing this all the time.

With her high familiarity with the system, she immediately added all the 23 specialization points she had previously obtained to the ice staff.

The icy staff in his hand immediately emitted a completely different faint icy light, even though it was only a low-level novice weapon.

Yu Man raised his staff to the sky, and the magic power drew a semicircular trajectory.

A simple, uncharged ice cone spell consumed 3% of her magic power and was instantly thrown at the enemy.

But it's not the healer who's going to kill him first--it's the archer. In the novice stage, the healer is quite difficult to break through, mainly because the magic resistance of the novice armor given to the healer is very high, but the archer's magic resistance is very low.

This sudden attack surprised the two opponents.

They hadn't expected to be attacked first—and they hadn't understood what it meant to fight a magician.

The archer instinctively tried to avoid the flying icicles, his entire attention focused on this initial attack.

But when the archer's feet began to move, Yu Man had already seen which direction the other party was going to go, so he immediately used the second skill of the staff that had been fully charged, causing local snowfall.

After I became specialized, the snowfall was much more abundant than before.
