Chapter 157

Finally, after more than 5 hours of struggling to beat the orcs monsters until the boss came out 5 times, Hiro managed to get the item he was looking for. With the help of the buff he got from Alice, he could collect 15 Crazy Orcs Hearts in just 5 hours. The boss monster dropped 2 crazy orc hearts every time it was defeated. And Hiro was sure that it was actually not that easy to get them.

Hiro immediately rushed back to the Training Area to complete the second stage of advancing job class.

By grinding for 5 hours at the crazy orcs’ place, Hiro had levelled up twice and obtained various types of Miscellaneous items as well as several weapons and equipment from Tier B and A. After some consideration, Hiro decided to sell the items through the Guild Shop later, or through Jacob who could be a dealer.

For now, he wasn’t too bothered about it. By creating a Guild Base, there was an additional menu called Guild Bank. Only officers could access the Guild Bank. Hiro could store the items he would sell in the storage without having to return to the guild base first.

In the Training Area, Hiro immediately looked for the location of the giant bunny dolls, which were his second target after the crazy orcs. He could find giant bunny dolls lining the sandy field in the backyard. However, when he counted the number of dolls, Hiro could only find 5 dolls made entirely of wood in that place. Whilst, he needed 10 dolls to be destroyed in 10 minutes.

Hiro knew about this. He had to talk to a male NPC who looked almost the same as NPC Fred, except for his long sword. The man was standing near the fifth row of giant bunny dolls.

But, he didn’t want to be caught in a trap. So, Hiro didn’t immediately ask the NPC to move him to a place where 10 giant bunny dolls waited for him. Instead, Hiro walked over to one of the bunny dolls to test how fast he could destroy it. Actually, he already had a bad feeling about this stage.

Clank!

Splat! Splat! Swish!

Hiro beat a doll until his body was covered with sweat, and his breathing became ragged. Meanwhile, the doll remained intact, standing firmly in front of him like a boxing glove with the face of a rabbit laughing scornfully at him.

“Damn it! I knew this was bound to happen.” Hiro stopped attacking the bunny doll after seeing that its HP was still green. It was only reduced by a quarter, even though Hiro had beaten it without pause for 3 minutes.

“You certainly can do it, Hiro.” Spyro was just watching while perched on top of a bunny that didn’t get hit by Hiro.

Hiro believed many players had difficulty passing this stage, so they decided to give up too early. They had to increase their strength first before continuing this extremely strenuous test.

Hiro sighed, trying to rack his brain out. In this condition, he couldn’t recklessly enter the place where 10 giant bunny dolls waited for him.

After his breathing returned to normal, he tried again with a different technique. He would use two types of combos that he had mastered. With the awakening sword combo skill, which was the advanced skill of his sword combo skill, coupled with the martial arts combo, Hiro felt that he still had a chance to pass this stage.

Clank!

Crash! Cracks!

“Ugh!”

[You managed to destroy one giant bunny doll!]

“It’s 3 minutes.” Even though he managed to destroy the wooden doll this time, it still took him 3 minutes for just one doll. He had to take down 10 dolls in 10 minutes.

He sighed again and wiped the sweat that dripped down on his eyes. It made his eyes sting.

This time, he opened the Marketplace menu on the homepage of his system to check if someone had already sold the buff or whether Ninecent had it available there. Alice’s buff wasn’t enough. He had to increase his strength first, even if it only lasted for a few hours or minutes.

[Price: 2,500 LSC]

After reading the buff items he could buy, Hiro found two items that seemed to help him succeed in destroying 10 giant bunny dolls in 10 minutes. Indeed, to achieve something, he needed to sacrifice something. With a total price of 3,500 LSC, this was the most expensive buff he had ever bought in a MMORPG.

“Are you sure you can handle this?” Spyro had already flown back in front of Hiro.

“I’m certain. You’re not helping me at all, Alice. I have to buy these expensive things.”

“Let’s see if you will succeed or you will just be wasting your time once again.”

Hiro rolled his eyes. He walked over to NPC Louis, who was standing next to one of the giant bunny dolls.

[Enter the training area]

[Quest Advance Job Class]

[Learning Martial Arts Skill]

[Just say, Hi!]

Hiro arched an eyebrow when he saw the menu options that appeared as he spoke to NPC Louis.

“Martial arts skill learning?” It instantly distracted him from his main goal.

“Hiro, what are you doing?”

Hiro ignored Spyro, who looked annoyed that he had misfocused on other things. But, Hiro knew what he was doing.

[Learning Martial Arts Skill]

Hiro was teleported to a new map. He had to follow the movements taught by NPC Louis in a room that looked like a karate practice room. It took up to 3 minutes to be able to follow the movements perfectly, and at the same time took down NPC Louis.

Ding!

[You have learned new martial art]

[Acrobatic Blitz]

“Now, I am much more prepared.” Hiro clenched his fists, then asked NPC Louis again.

[Job Advancement Quest]

Ding!

[You will be teleported to the special place of the Training Area]

[Good luck!]

Hiro was standing on a field that was exactly the same as the field he had previously lived in. However, the difference was, there were 10 giant bunny dolls that looked exactly the same as the one he had managed to destroy surrounded him in a circle. Seeing them so close to each other only made Hiro more confident that he could pass this stage.

Ding!

[All basic stats have been increased (30 minutes remaining)]

Hiro drew out his sword and prepared himself before he put the red tablet in his hand into his mouth.

“Watch me!” He glanced at Spyro, who chose to keep itself safe by flying away. It became a spectator for Hiro’s fight. Its body was already emitting light when Hiro got the basic stats conversion from his pet.
