"Players can learn life skills after reaching level 10."
Jiang Chen looked at Xia Rui'er seriously and said, "I think there's a profession that's perfect for you!"
"What profession?"
"Tailor!"
"Tailor?"
"Yes."
Jiang Chen nodded and explained, "Tailors can make various outfits to sell to players. It's definitely one of the most profitable side jobs in 'Gods'!"
"Making outfits?"
Upon hearing this, Xia Rui'er's eyes lit up.
Fashion design had always been a small but persistent dream of hers.
However, after graduation, she had to give up this path for the sake of making a living, burying the dream deep in her heart.
She also knew that in-game outfits were particularly lucrative.
Whether it was the costumes in the dress-up game "Warm Dress-Up" she liked to play, or the skins in MOBA games, they all generated huge profits.
Not to mention a game like 【Gods】, which was immensely popular.
The more she thought about it, the more Xia Rui'er felt she could give it a try.
What if she succeeded?
With a look of anticipation, Xia Rui'er said, "I want to learn tailoring!"
Jiang Chen smiled and asked, "By the way, what level are you now?"
"Uh..."
Xia Rui'er's high spirits deflated instantly upon hearing the question. She said somewhat dejectedly, "Level 3."
Jiang Chen: "..."
Goodness, level 3!
Level 3 was bad enough, but they weren't even in the same Beginner's Village.
He couldn't even help her now.
Different Beginner's Villages couldn't be teleported between; only after reaching the level 10 main city could they use the corresponding teleportation arrays.
Jiang Chen suddenly felt a bit frustrated.
"Don't you think the monsters in 'Gods' are too difficult? They take forever to kill, and their damage is ridiculously high."
Enjoying the story? Show your support by reading it on the official site.
Seeing Jiang Chen's speechlessness, Xia Rui'er said helplessly.
Jiang Chen didn't discuss the difficulty, but after thinking for a moment, he said, "I'll send you a Beginner's Village quest guide later. Just follow it."
A guide?
Xia Rui'er's spirits lifted immediately upon hearing this. She nodded quickly and said, "Okay! I'll go take a shower first, then wait for your guide to get in the game!"
With that, she ran back excitedly.
Jiang Chen also turned and walked back to his room.
After a quick wash.
He opened his computer, eating the breakfast Xia Rui'er had brought him while typing out the guide.
In the Beginner's Village, leveling up didn't necessarily require mob farming. Many fetch quests, though tedious, also provided a lot of experience.
Of course, the leveling speed couldn't compare to top players who farmed mobs.
However, with a reasonable task flow, it was still much faster than common players.
After about twenty minutes.
Jiang Chen had written a guide for fetch quests in the Beginner's Village.
Although he had forgotten many task details, the general task flow, where to find tasks, and the order and logic of completing them were all detailed.
Top-tier players took about 8-10 hours to reach level 10.
Jiang Chen's guide would take about 20 hours to reach level 10.
Compared to common players who could be stuck in the Beginner's Village for two or three days, this was much better.
The main advantage was that this guide required no technical skills; anyone could follow it.
The only downside was that it was extremely tedious and boring.
After sending the guide to Xia Rui'er, Jiang Chen put on his gaming helmet and entered the game.
At 8:30 in the morning.
Jiang Chen appeared in the Beginner's Village square.
He saw two unread messages.
【Tao Xiaoyao: Great God, I'm online.】
【Tao Xiaoyao: Great God, call me when you're online.】
Just as Jiang Chen was about to reply, another message came through.
【Tao Xiaoyao: Great God...】
Knowing that she had been waiting for him, Jiang Chen immediately sent a voice message: "Meet at the village entrance."
Then, he opened the marketplace.
Four white items and two bronze items had all been sold.
The Sharp Dagger (Silver Level) had also been auctioned off.
Final sale price: 1250 gold!
After deducting the transaction fee, Jiang Chen earned 1125 gold coins.
At the current gold price, that was nearly 100,000 yuan!
Expensive?
Not really.
Although there were already three or four silver items up for auction in the marketplace.
When Jiang Chen sold this dagger, it was still the first silver-level item in the national server.
If the item level wasn't just level 5 and the base attributes were a bit better.
Jiang Chen thought the price could have been higher.
Of course, he was very satisfied with this price.
Moreover, this dagger wasn't the main event.
【Equipment: Blood Tide Greatsword (Gold Level)】
【Current Bid: 2000 gold.】
【Auction Time Remaining: 6 hours 55 minutes 31 seconds.】
This gold-level greatsword was the real highlight!
"With nearly 7 hours left, that's when the real big spenders will make their move!"
Jiang Chen was extremely excited!
Exiting the marketplace, Jiang Chen walked towards the outskirts of the Beginner's Village.
Along the way, he checked the level leaderboard.
First place: Zainxia Faye (Mage), level 11.
Second place: Qian Xingtianxia (Warrior), level 11.
Third place: Xian Duan You Shui Ting (Archer), level 10.
...
Tenth place: Jian Qi Heng Qiu (Warrior), level 10.
As expected, he was no longer in the top ten.
"Those who rush the level leaderboard are warriors unafraid of sudden death."
Jiang Chen sighed, crossed the square, and arrived at the village entrance.
The petite Tao Xiaoyao was standing under a statue by the village gate, her head slightly lowered. Occasionally, someone would invite her to join their party, but she declined them all.
Then, she saw Jiang Chen, her face lighting up with a gentle smile as she hurried over.
"Great God!"
Her voice was soft and sweet.
"Let's go."
Jiang Chen sent a party invitation and then headed straight towards Black Mist Canyon.
"Aren't we waiting for Sister Qing Ying?"
Tao Xiaoyao asked from behind.
"Not sure when she'll be online. We'll go first. She can catch up when she logs in."
"Okay."
Twenty minutes later.
The two arrived at Black Mist Canyon.
With players leveling up, more people were farming mobs at the canyon entrance.
They continued deeper inside.
Finally, they found an empty area surrounded by level 10 mobs.
Few players came here anymore.
【Armored Zombie: LV10】
Ahead, several zombies clad in black armor wandered aimlessly.
"Healing Spell!"
A white light fell on a mob's head.
-360!
Jiang Chen now had 220 magic power, making his Healing Spell incredibly powerful.
Next, a white beam of light gathered in front of Jiang Chen, connecting to the mob.
The beam then bent at a 90-degree angle, connecting to two more mobs.
-330!
-330!
-330!
Three damage numbers floated up.
At the same time, the three mobs were covered in a layer of white frost.
Their movements slowed down.
This was the additional effect of the Cold Frost Staff: damage skills reduce the target's movement speed by 20%.
Plus, the Phantom Boots' 10% movement speed boost.
Jiang Chen could pull multiple mobs and keep them from getting close to him!
He retreated while casting spells.
Three armored zombies chased him but couldn't catch up.
"Is this the joy of being a ranged class?"
Jiang Chen smiled brightly.
Indeed, kiting was the essence of being a ranged class!
Now, Jiang Chen's mob farming efficiency was three times higher!
"Let's reach level 10 as quickly as possible!"
