With the class change to Shield Guardian and maxed-out defense, I can maintain infinite health.

Are you crazy?

Even an S-rank shield guard wouldn't fight like this, let alone a C-rank shield guard.

Isn't this just a blood-for-blood exchange with the monsters?

However, to the great surprise of the two, the person in the room did not look disheveled at all.

They got more and more excited as they fought.

Is that correct?

at this time.

Chen Ming also noticed the two people not far away.

He looked over, and the moment their eyes met, he saw the two of them suddenly shudder.

"Um, do you need help? I see you..."

One of them asked tentatively, though hesitant to speak.

They are now unsure whether the other person is even human...

"Thanks, but I don't need it."

Chen Ming calmly replied while brandishing his knife.

"Okay... alright."

After hesitating for a moment, the two slowly retreated.

However, they did not leave, but rested at a distance while silently observing.

The two were genuinely curious about how this C-rank shield guard would deal with the siege of the three-headed monster.

They waited for quite a while, but still didn't see Chen Ming use any skills.

The entire sequence consisted of simple, unadorned basic attacks!

He fought the level 2 Spiked Beast, slashing away at it one by one.

At the same time, he withstood the attacks of two level 1 Spiny Beasts behind him.

"What kind of fighting style is this? It's outrageous."

"This is the first time I've ever seen someone so reckless."

Most importantly.

Despite being attacked so many times, the person didn't seem to be seriously injured at all.

"Holy crap, it looks like he's going to win!"

"That level 2 Spiny Roller has been provoked and is about to use its skill!"

The two watched the battle unfold with bated breath.

I was afraid of missing any details.

-34!

Under relentless attacks, Chen Ming finally managed to exploit a weakness in the Spiky Beast.

One slash, and the weak spot is hit!

As expected, the level 2 Spiny Roller immediately went berserk.

A series of strong winds rose up around them.

The Spiky Beast activated its ability, transforming into a black shadow and frantically thrusting.

It is very fast.

In the blink of an eye, he had already hit Chen Ming twice.

-1!

-1!

Chen Ming remained calm and continued at his original pace.

-34!

-34!

This scene, witnessed by the two people in the distance, left them completely dumbfounded.

"Seriously? He's going to tough it out? He's insane!"

The spiky roll beast's last-ditch counterattack is extremely dangerous.

High speed, high damage.

If a normal job changer gets hit a few times, they'll probably be killed outright.

The conventional teaching method is to first kite and dodge, and then finish off the monster after it is exhausted.

......

-34!

[Defeat the Spiked Roller (lv.2), experience +15!]

Finally, after Chen Ming relentlessly attacked the weak points, the level 2 Spiky Beast was successfully killed.

The time taken to kill a level 1 Spiny Beast didn't increase much, but the experience gained was more than double.

"As expected, I still need to fight high-level beasts; I can level up in just a few."

Chen Ming breathed a sigh of relief.

A faint glimmer of light flashed before my eyes.

[Obtained: Spiky Beast - Beast Core (lv.2)]

[Received: Power Runestone *1]

[Runestone: A special material containing the energy of laws; its use can enhance attribute abilities.]

"Hmm... a runestone dropped?"

Chen Ming's face lit up with joy.

Runestones are precious items that enhance the attributes of equipment.

It can be said that equipment is just a container for enhancing runes; the real boost to a class's attributes comes from the effects of the runes.

Different levels of equipment can provide different numbers of runes.

For example, a Tier 1 ordinary equipment can only be enhanced with a maximum of 10 runes.

The longsword he bought from the guild, which has +4 Strength, is an equipment that has been enhanced by 4 Strength runes.

The probability of a beast dropping a rune stone after it dies is generally very small.

He was clearly lucky.

Without hesitation, Chen Ming used the power rune on his longsword.

The light brown, translucent stone shattered inch by inch, and then a glimmer of light flowed into the blade.

[Power Rune successfully used!]

[Standard Longsword: Strength +5!]

After finishing everything, Chen Ming still ignored the two spiky beasts that were frantically attacking him.

He checked his current physical attributes.

[Constitution: 573/600]

"Killing a level 2 beast will reduce your constitution by about one-tenth, but it will also automatically regenerate 55 constitution points per hour."

Based on this calculation, he could simply seek out and kill level 2 beasts.

There's no need to waste time getting entangled with level 1 beasts anymore.

Having made his decision, Chen Ming no longer hesitated and set off to venture deeper into the area.

As for the remaining two level 1 Spiny Beasts, he chose to ignore them.

I've lost interest in them.

the other side.

After witnessing Chen Ming kill the level 2 alien beast, and then walking deeper into the area as if nothing had happened, [the person] witnessed the entire process.

The two members of the team exchanged a silent glance.

The shock I felt was beyond words.

This is the first time I've ever seen monsters being killed like this.

He used his body to tough it out and managed to wear down a level 2 alien beast to death.

They, a B-rank assassin and a C-rank knight, worked together to maintain their strength and kill a level 1 thorny beast.

Is that person's blood volume wholesale? How come it seems like they can't use it all?

"Even though he hasn't used a single skill, I feel like he's ridiculously powerful..."

"He's practically a superman."

This isn't a C-rank shield guard, this is an SSS-rank humanoid titan!

......

Time flies.

Chen Ming began repeatedly searching for and killing level 2 beasts in the Qingfeng Forest.

-1!

-35!

[Defeat the Spiked Roller (lv.2), experience +16!]

[Obtained: Spiky Beast - Beast Core (lv.2)]

...

[Slay a Leaf Rat (lv.2), experience +14!]

[Obtained: Leaf Beast - Beast Core (lv.2)]

Three hours later.

Congratulations! Your level has increased to level 2! (200 more experience points are needed to level up)

"Finally upgraded."

Chen Ming let out a long breath.

The body, which was already somewhat tired and weak, was nourished in the instant of the upgrade.

It is full of vitality again.

He looked at his career panel.

Name: Chen Ming

[Class]: Shield Guard

[Level]: 2

【Strength】: 25

[Physical Fitness]: 871/1200 (20%)

[Recovery]: 112 (12%)

[Agility]: 20

[Mental Strength]: 238 (19%)

【Skill】:

[Rank C - The More You Fight, the Stronger You Become (lv.2)]

[SSS-Rank - Absolute Defense (Max Level)]

-

"My constitution increased by 600 points, and I recovered a lot of health."

"The more you fight, the stronger you become, and your level has also increased."

Skill levels are accumulated through continuous use.

The level 2 "The More You Fight, the Stronger You Get" skill has a 12% increase in recovery efficiency!

"Breaking through to level 2 in less than half a day, it's estimated that only Qin Zhixue, an SS-level job changer, could achieve such speed in the entire Yunhai City."

Chen Ming was quite satisfied with his upgrade efficiency.

Some things even exceeded his expectations.

Although his invincibility mechanism is ridiculously overpowered, there's still room for improvement in other aspects of his character.

The attack is weak and the methods are limited.

I originally thought that achieving the solo efficiency of an S-rank job changer would be sufficient.

Now, the plans have changed.

He's going to level up to level 3 today!
