Chapter 6 Professionals

Fang Yi

Cycle Building: Starting Village (Level 1)

Source of contamination: Vampire Baron, Ghost Mage

Players: 500

Reward points: 6865

Fang Yi nodded repeatedly in satisfaction as he watched the reward points steadily increase.

In just two days, this group of players earned themselves a considerable reward.

The white-haired loli's face was flushed, and her head was still wet from soaking in the hot spring. She tried to throw herself into Fang Yi's arms, but he grabbed her by the back of the neck and threw her away.

"Master, what exactly is going on?"

Bai Maolu stared at the players hunting the corrupted monsters on the screen and asked疑惑地问道, "Many players haven't left the game for two whole days, hunting corrupted monsters non-stop. Don't they need a break?"

The amount of origin I've collected in the last two days isn't much compared to the methods used by some world consciousnesses.

But it's very strange.

Even with death as a penalty, most living beings have a negative attitude towards the corrupted monsters, preferring to avoid conflict whenever possible, and engaging in combat is only out of necessity.

But after getting through the initial period of confusion, these players were like hungry wolves encountering sheep, constantly hunting and corrupting monsters.

Some players were even forced offline due to a lack of nutritional supplements in their real-world bodies.

too crazy!

Fang Yi glanced at the white-haired loli, revealing a look of utter ignorance, and said, "Put yourself in her shoes. If you were made to work yourself to the bone like a slave, with someone whipping you from behind, and all the rewards going to the slave owner, while you only get scraps, wouldn't you want to slack off?"

"But if you could watch the reward points flow into your pocket every time you hunted a corrupted monster, and then exchange them for any item you wanted in the shop, wouldn't you be motivated?"

The "breeding gu" model is like the era of slavery, where power forces slaves to work.

The wheels of history have proven the drawbacks of this approach, and slaves will inevitably rebel against oppression.

The white-haired loli seemed to have grasped something, appearing to understand somewhat why the reincarnators would betray the world's consciousness. She said, "However, hunting corrupted monsters is still too slow. These players are all too weak. Should we provide them with powerful weapons?"

"Fool."

Fang Yi rubbed her wet hair and said, "If weapons and equipment are too easy to obtain, it will reduce players' enthusiasm for hunting."

"Inferior browser games that give away dragon-slaying swords and devastating attacks with every strike might attract players at first, but a large number of them will quickly quit."

"It can't be too difficult either. The Rinnegan, Wood Release, and the exorbitant reward points of tens of thousands are like castles in the air; players will feel exhausted."

"Therefore, I categorize all equipment, weapons, and skills according to their level and quality."

White, green, blue, purple, silver, gold, dark gold...

Fang Yi had planned it out long ago. To redeem items in the store, he not only needed reward points, but also, like in traditional online games, he needed to qualify to wear them.

Only after reaching the specified level can one wear the corresponding equipment and learn the corresponding skills.

In this way, players' enthusiasm for hunting polluted monsters can be stimulated in stages, maintaining this momentum.

"It feels amazing, but it's also a bit..."

Before the white-haired loli finished speaking, she mentioned that world consciousness is also divided into orderly and chaotic.

Compared to the Gu-raising model, although there is no threat of death, it is more subtle and insidious.

As someone on the benevolent side, she couldn't help but feel sorry for the players as she watched her master's elaborate schemes unfold.

On the screen,

On the outskirts of the Dead Soul Mountains, players traverse the ruins of towns, battling ghosts.

"Mr. Asuma, what's your decision?"

A young man dressed in a noble robe with an effeminate face blocked the path of the Konoha team.

Asuma shook his head and said, "I'm sorry, without the Hokage's orders, we cannot grant your request."

The person before me is a nobleman from the Land of Fire, a distant relative of the daimyo.

Several warrior players have already formed a team around him, prioritizing the killing of nobles when hunting ghosts to level up and earn reward points.

In return, the noble youth will reward the samurai player with a considerable sum of money in real life.

"That's a real shame."

The young nobleman was furious, but he maintained his aristocratic elegance and turned to leave with the four warrior players.

Asuma glanced warily at the departing noble group, then led the Konoha squad to continue hunting ghosts.

You have reached level 5. Do you wish to accept the class quest?

A faint light appeared.

Hyuga Neji received a system notification that once he reached level 5, he could unlock the job skill tree by completing the job quest.

"Professional skills?"

With no way to hide the situation and the goal of freeing the Caged Bird, Neji frantically hunted ghosts, even compressing his sleep time to four hours, which allowed him to gain a slight lead.

Everyone caught up quickly, and after organizing his thoughts, he told Asma about the mission.

Asuma thought for a moment and said, "Professional skills should be the same as ninjutsu."

[Collect 20 Ghost Essences and 1 Ghost Guardian's Essence, consuming 1000 reward points, to randomly assume a new role.]

"Such demanding conditions!"

After hearing the mission completion conditions, Asma frowned and said, "The Ghost Guardians are too strong. They could wipe us out in the blink of an eye."

In the Dead Soul Mountains, ghosts are the weakest monsters.

There are also monsters like Ghost Guardians, which are high-level and possess powerful area-of-effect skills.

The Konoha team once encountered a ghost guardian, and only managed to kill it by sacrificing the lives of Asuma, Kabuto, and two support ninjas.

The Ghost Guardian Essence that dropped at that time could only be exchanged for 100 reward points if sold to the in-game store.

However, if you want to purchase it from the store, you need 1000 reward points.

Neji's eyes were eager; he had already figured out the rules of the cycle game: the stronger the monster, the better the loot it dropped.

The more difficult the task, the greater the reward upon completion.

but,

Although he longed to become a professional, his desire to break free from his caged state made him unwilling to waste his reward points.

Neji resisted the temptation, took a deep breath, and said, "I've already used up my reward points. I'll leave this Ghost Guardian Essence to Captain Asuma. You should be reaching level five soon, right?"

Asuma, not expecting him to say that, asked, "Neji, are you sure?"

"I'm sure."

"In that case, the materials will be left for the next person who meets the requirements for the job change."

Although Asuma is the captain, everyone's strength is about the same in the game, so he naturally can't keep all the materials for himself.

By evening, Naruto Uzumaki had reached level five, using the essence of the Hidden Leaf Squad's Ghost Souls and the essence of the Ghost Guardians to successfully complete his class change quest.

[Complete the profession quest to receive a random profession book*1]

Congratulations on becoming a [Warrior] class user!

Note: After a warrior levels up, they will receive a fixed additional 3 points of Strength and 2 points of Constitution.

Naruto Uzumaki felt his whole body heat up, a scorching aura flowing through his body, and his physique became even stronger.

A new skill bar has been added to the player panel.

[Skills Bar]

Whirlwind Slash Lv.1: Spin and swing your weapon, dealing (20 + 30% of Strength) damage to surrounding enemies.

Naruto Uzumaki eagerly raised his broadsword and activated his skill.

boom.

The broadsword was gripped tightly, its thick blade gleaming with a crimson light.

Naruto gripped the sword hilt with both hands, swung it horizontally, and spun around with the blade, charging towards the mottled stone wall in front of him.

A loud bang.

The thick stone wall was cleaved open by the sword blade, and rubble fell in a flurry, with dust and smoke swirling around it.

The entire stone wall was cleaved open by brute force, revealing a huge hole.

Naruto passed through the hole in the stone wall and arrived on the other side.

Upon seeing the power of the skill, Asuma took a deep breath and said, "This power is comparable to a B-rank ninjutsu."

beside,

The logistics ninja said nonchalantly, "They're not that strong. They're only slightly stronger than ordinary genin. Any trained chunin could easily defeat them."

The pharmacist adjusted his glasses but remained silent.

Seeing that he hadn't grasped the key point, Asma prompted, "How long have we been in this cycle of reincarnation?"

"What does Captain Asuma want to say in two days...?"

The logistics ninja, who had been nonchalant, suddenly realized the key point and cut off the second half of his sentence.

They only participated in the cycle of reincarnation for two days!

Although it's a group activity, collecting the necessary materials is relatively easy. But even a lone wolf, if they're willing to go all out, could probably collect enough materials to complete their job in ten days, or at most half a month.

To know,

Even for the five great ninja nations with their rich history, it takes a long time to cultivate a Chunin.

Selecting talented children, starting with refining chakra, teaching ninjutsu, and then training them on the battlefield, takes at least ten years even for those with exceptional talent.

The cycle of reincarnation only takes ten days.
