"Ding ~!"

System Notification: Congratulations, you have completed the [Beheading the Black Stomp King] (E-level mission), you have received the following rewards: EXP + 5000, Silver Coin + 30, and the additional reward: [Scout Chest Armor]!

A chest armor fell into the bag and he quickly opened it. In the corner of the bag, there was a copper coloured armor. Although it looked rough, it had a strong defensive power.

[Scouting Armour] (Bronze Equipment)

Type: Armor

Defense: 30

Stamina: + 7

Required level: 15

… ….

It instantly raised its defense to 160 points, and its HP limit was also 1728 points. It could be said that the current attribute was already very rough, there were a total of four bronze grade equipment, and they continued to be ranked on the Beginner Village's fighting strength ranking, it was very powerful.

"There's actually an equipment reward …"

Lin Que was overjoyed as a pair of bronze trousers made of cloth appeared on his legs.

Hai Yang and Zywane were resentful. They were only giving EXP and silver coins, not other rewards.

He didn't have the intention to give me the quest, probably because the quest here is already gone, so I said, "We're just short of level 16. Let's go, we'll circle around this village and find stronger monsters to kill. We feel like we can kill monsters that are 5 levels higher, maximizing our efficiency."

Lin Che nodded his head. "I agree."

After passing by the village, he could hear the sound of water in five minutes. A huge flat marsh appeared in front of him as he passed the dense forest. The map was covered in a patch of red, and a system notification popped up: "Please be careful, you have entered the danger map [Sunset Swamp]!"

In the distance, the sun was hanging in the west, shining down on the swamps with thousands of rays of light, which were quite magnificent and dazzling. We were a little entranced by it, and when the cold wind blew, we could feel the bleakness of the autumn sun, which was almost 100% real, making us feel a little cold.

On the map, a few red dots appeared one by one. There was a monster.

"Hiss, hiss ~ ~"

There was a whirlpool moving on the surface of the swamps covered in leaves and water grasses, and it was about ten meters long. When I looked carefully, I was shocked to find a huge head swimming around with water grasses and leaves. It was a water python, and its body was as thick as a bowl.

"It's a little scary..." Lin Che was surprised.

"There's no need for you to engage in close combat. What are you afraid of?"

I smiled as I read out the water python's stats. It was indeed very high. Moreover, it had surpassed bronze rank monsters. It was actually an ordinary metal level monster …

[Water Python] (Mysterious-Iron Monster)

Level: 20

Attack: 95-155

Defense: 90

Qi and blood: 2500

Skills: [Bind], [Whip Tail]

Description: One of the hegemons of the swamp. It is said that an adult water python can easily swallow a cow. Young adventurer, if you are not as strong as a water buffalo, you should be more careful.

… ….

Perhaps it's because it's at the Black Iron rank, but a level 20 water python's stats are not much weaker than a bronze BOSS like the Black Stun King at all, and it even slightly surpasses the attack power. Perhaps it's because it's at the level 20's water python's stats are not much weaker than a bronze BOSS like the Black Stomp King, and it's attack power is even slightly stronger than the Black Stomp King's, but its defense is lower than Black Stomp, and its blood and vitality is also much less.

Try it.

"Little Che, you've pulled the monster. Everyone attack together." "No," I said.

"Let's do it!"

He raised his hand and two talismans stuck onto the water python's large head, striking out a few hundred points of damage. Immediately, the nearby water began to undulate, and the water python's body hidden underwater began to rage. The water python's head even rose into the air, abruptly opening its mouth wide and swallowing Lin Che.

I suddenly shifted horizontally and accurately struck out with my sword while I was moving. My four consecutive strikes landed on the head of the water python, leaving behind a trail of true energy in the air. It was a magnificent sight, the water python's blood and Qi immediately fell to less than a third of its original size.

"Clang ~ ~"

"97!"

If a player was equipped with a full set of Bronze grade equipment, they would basically be able to run amuck in the Beginner Village. Not to mention normal monsters, even a Boss wouldn't be able to do anything to them.

In a matter of seconds, the water python was quickly killed, dozens of copper coins dropped, and it laid straight on the surface of the water. Lin Che immediately began to lure the next monster, and without stopping, with our strength, we could already continuously kill monsters without stopping, leveling speed is not just a normal berserk, and the level 20 water python surpassed us by 5 levels. The experience points are extremely rich, one of them can increase our level by about 1%, killing dozens of them will help us level up, and this will quickly become our holy land.

"Swish!"

A rain of light descended, reaching level 16!

As they went deeper into the swamp, the amount of water pythons around them increased, and their spawning speed was also quite fast, to the point that they would have to face off against two or three water pythons soon. Luckily, my defense was strong enough, and I could take the initiative to reduce the damage through my defensive skills.

After three hours of hard work, in the blink of an eye, three hours have passed. Accompanied by a rain of light, Lin Che, Hai Yang and I have both risen to level 18, Zhang Wei has also caught up to level 17, and our harvest is quite bountiful. Although we don't have any Mysterious Iron Equipment, we gave out two Bronze Equipment to Hai Hai and Zhang Wei respectively.

Whoosh. Whoosh. Whoosh.

Further up in the depths of the Sunset Swamp, the whirlpool on the surface of the river began to surge rapidly, forming a huge current that was at least twenty meters long.

"What's going on?"

Zywane frowned, "I have a bad feeling about this."

"The Boss has appeared."

I pointed at the map and said, "Brother Wei, this time you should go and clear the Boss. With the Boss in the water, Little Che and the sea won't be able to clear it. I'll have to rely on you."

Zywane felt his scalp go numb. "It's a giant python, right?"

"That should be right."

"Hey, why don't you pull the monster?" He stared.

"I'm the main DPS player, so of course you go first. What's there to be afraid of? At worst, you can just feed it half of its body. Go, brothers. Can you still let it go?" "No," I said.

Zhang Wei's face was ashen. "If I get swallowed alive, I'll deal with all of you!"

Lin Che and Wang Jinhai both smiled. "Go, brother! "Your wife, we will raise her."

Zywane carefully walked forward, and after taking a few steps, his feet suddenly felt a whirlpool swirling around him. "Pu!" A huge monster rushed out from the bottom of the water, and a half meter thick python started to churn, its flexible body trembling, directly wrapping itself around Zywane's body. Soon after that, a huge hideous head appeared, opening its bloody mouth and directly swallowing Zywane.

"Pfft!"

"1904!"

It was a terrible injury. Luckily, it was Zywane who attacked first. He had more than 3000 HP. If it was me in his place, I'm afraid I would only have a sliver of my blood left!

"Body Securing Technique!"

Lin Che's precise Body Securing Technique has already landed on the python's head, directly stunning it. I then leaped up, my long sword slashed across the sky, the bronze sword was ignited by the true energy. The fiery red heavy slash and the blue and white light from the attack landed on the python's head together, releasing four consecutive attacks!

"247!"

"282!"

"244!"

"301!"

After a series of damage attacks, the Boss' aggro immediately shifted towards me, and a huge tree tail like splashing water swept towards me. Its speed was so fast that I didn't even have a chance to defend myself before a "Peng" sound rang out and hit my Chest Armour.

"594!"

At this moment, he raised his head and felt a little disappointed. The King of Water Pythons, a level 20 Bronze-ranked BOSS, was still not a Black Iron level BOSS. Killing it would not give a first kill reward for the Black Iron level BOSS, but he still had to kill it!

Gunfire rang out in succession from Lin Che and Hai Yang. After eating enough damage, Zywane also drank some medicine while slapping the python's body with his ferocious tiger palm. When I rushed over with my sword, the BOSS already had 40% of its health remaining.

"Aowu ~ ~"

The King of Water Pythons raised its huge head and roared. Then, its body suddenly stiffened and turned into a pitch black rock. With a "hualala" sound, several pieces of equipment dropped.

"Shua!"

The EXP bar flickered. A Boss gave us 28% of our EXP bar, which was incredibly generous.

Lin Che looked through the equipment and muttered to himself, "A Bronze Armour Gloves, it was given to Hai-ge. There is also a Bronze Armour Boots, they belong to me, this …" "Brother Chen, you have armor and legs. If I'm not mistaken, your equipment is bronze. Take it."

I took the Leg Protector to increase my Strength and happily accepted it. I didn't want to split the points with Zhang Wei anymore. Half of his skills were wasted and Strength didn't help much.

[Python Scale Leggings] (Bronze Equipment)

Type: Armor

Defense: 32

Strength: + 7

Required level: 17

These were the five pieces of Bronze Equipment Armour. If it was a full set of Bronze Equipment, the defensive power would probably be high enough that the Physical Profession players would not be able to hit it. However, another problem was revealed: Low level armors did not have any magic resistance, so fighting Warriors were not bad, while Mages were considered natural enemies.

… ….

"Someone's coming!"

Suddenly, Lin Che warned.

As expected, on the hillside on the other side of the swamp, a group of players were hurriedly heading towards the north. There were seven people, all of them of quite high levels, the lowest being level 15. They had already reached their initial fighting capabilities, and the person walking in the middle looked very familiar.

Blazing Flame Mouse, why is he here?
