"This should be the starting town, which is what most games call the Beginner's Village."
Mu Fan's eyes were filled with surprise as he looked at the medieval style streets. In the huge central square, the game had only started for less than a minute, but the entire city was packed with people. At a glance, it was a sea of black. There were countless people gathered here, and it looked like there were at least ten thousand people. Moreover, there were still new players joining the game constantly.
Almost everyone who entered the game was shocked by the almost realistic scene in front of them. Some people couldn't help but reach out to touch the ancient buildings, feeling the almost realistic feeling of the stone slabs and trees.
Before the game started, Mu Fan had already had close contact with Chuyin. Naturally, he knew how high-end the sensory simulation of this game was. Naturally, he didn't waste time trying so much. Instead, he followed Chuyin's method and dashed towards the east along the bluestone paved street. His figure nimbly passed by everyone's side.
At the same time, Hatsune, who had shrunk to the size of a palm and was wearing a green dress and had a pair of transparent wings on her back, landed on Mu Fan's shoulder like a fairy. She smiled and reminded him, "Big brother, the game has just started. You'll be able to level up faster if you hunt monsters before others. Otherwise, it'll be hard to kill monsters when people come over. Also, get more of the game's currency, Cor. Based on the percentage of the game's profit, it'll be sold to players in the future. You can earn Japanese yen. "
It can make money?
Mu Fan was a little surprised. Did he open a fake game?
In his previous life, he played countless games made by Penguin and was almost scammed into eating dirt. He didn't expect to play a VR game that could make money in this world.
It's really shocking. It seems like I have to work hard to become an immortal.
In fact, the running speed in this world was about the same as in the real world. It took a while to get out of the central square of the town. Looking at the realistic shops and streets on both sides, Mu Fan was secretly amazed. He opened his backpack and equipped a beginner's weapon, the [Broken Iron Sword].
Holding a sword full of cracks, Mu Fan felt like he had become an invincible swordsman. Even if he was facing a top boss, he would have the urge to fight.
After leaving the town gate, Mu Fan ran along the winding grassy path towards the leveling area that Hatsune pointed out.
Along the way, he didn't meet any other adventurers. This group of people who didn't have any guides were looking for a leveling area and experiencing life in the town. Unlike others, he could find a leveling area directly, but he could level up first.
At this moment, Mu Fan inadvertently noticed one of his innate gifts.
"Third-level cooking talent, Chuyin. Could it be that I can also be a chef here and have a third-level skill from the start?"
"Yes."
Hatsune nodded and said with a sweet smile, "Big brother, there's nothing I can't do. The cooking skill corresponds to the real world. In this world, big brother's cooking can replenish hunger, recover health, and increase attack. The score determines the quality of the food and how delicious it is. "
"Then I can cook and eat delicious food in this world?" Mu Fan said in surprise.
"Of course."
Chuyin sat on his shoulder and stretched out her snow-white hand to tap on Mu Fan's data. She pointed at a yellow attribute bar and smiled as she said, "Brother, actually, this game has a hunger system. If you don't eat food, you'll become hungry and unable to fight in the game. Hence, you need food to be able to fight. I once ate the bread sold by the NPCs in the city. It was tasteless, just like eating a steamed bun. It was disgusting. "
"Oh, then how do I cook?" Mu Fan asked as he looked at the hunger level that decreased as he ran.
"You just need to kill monsters to get ingredients."
Hatsune smiled and said, "You can see the level 3 gathering skill in the skill bar, right? You can use this skill to hunt monsters and collect the ingredients they drop to make food. Also, because this skill is given by the system, it won't occupy the skill bar. For example, you can get eggs by collecting chickens, and you can get pork by hunting pigs. "
"There's such a benefit?"
Mu Fan was surprised. Although SAO was a game that relied on skills and reflexes to determine the outcome, players still needed to learn some weapon attack skills. However, everyone's skill bar was fixed, and only by leveling up could the skill bar be increased.
However, learning a merchant's skill or a cooking skill would occupy the skill bar, and they wouldn't be able to experience the feeling of killing enemies in battle. Hunting monsters was also more difficult than simply fighting a Swordsman.
But with Hatsune's help, the cooking skill bar in the game could be stored in the Elf Hatsune. He could control the cooking skill with Hatsune, and it wouldn't occupy the corresponding sword skill bar.
This way, he could learn all the sword skills and support skills.
Well, Hatsune is really cute and useful!
Not long after, Mu Fan's footsteps gradually slowed down, and he came to an endless grassland. This was the leveling area that Hatsune mentioned.
"Onii-san, be careful, there are monsters here."
Hatsune reminded him.
"I understand."
Mu Fan's expression became a lot more dignified. This was his first battle in SAO, so he naturally had to be careful. After walking forward about 500 meters, a blue boar appeared in the grassland basin below Mu Fan.
"Hatsune, this should be the mid-level monster in the game, right? It looks very powerful! "
Standing on the grassland, looking down at the boar below, Mu Fan held the iron sword tightly and said in a low voice.
Damn it, Akuya. Speaking of which, this novice iron sword was really of poor quality. Just holding the hilt that was not wrapped properly made his palm tingle. Looking at the curved blade, he really didn't know if it could cut through the thick skin of the boar in front of him.
It only has a little bit of attack power!
Hatsune couldn't help but laugh: "Onii-san, this is just a low-level monster, a [Manic Boar]. You can kill it as soon as you leave the newbie town."
"It's only level 1, but it looks so fierce?"
Mu Fan's face turned red, and he couldn't help but complain. He held the iron sword and rushed down. Sensing the movement behind it, the boar's body shook, and it quickly turned around. White gas came out of its nose, and it revealed its sharp fangs. Its huge body was like a car, and it directly slammed into Mu Fan's body.
"Brother, you have to be careful. Although it's a level one monster, it's still harder for a newbie to defeat. As long as you have a rough grasp of the game's rules, you can easily subdue it," Chuyin reminded him anxiously.
[A newbie?] [Why do you use every word?]
Listening to Hatsune's words, Mu Fan's mouth twitched.
