Chapter 7
As night fell, the rain covered the forest. Each step of my foot would result with a Ba Ji, Ba Ji sound as my foot ssh among the water puddles in the grass.
I had already run for close to 10 minutes. In this forest, other than the yers and goblins, I did not see any other creatures. But when I pass over a small hill, I finally saw a new creature!
Zhi Zhi ~!
A bat that was encased with me seemed to emit the horrible creaking noise continuously. Its body was red in colour, but its only eye is green in colour. [Fire Bat] (normal monster)

I was mildly surprised. It was a level 5 beast, and it is much stronger than the goblins. With a life of 500 hitpoints, it is very hard to escape the poisonous attack of these creatures.

My attack is considered not bad, but my defence is much weaker. The me bat should be able to break my defence. This, plus the special attack that can poison me, is definitely a tough fight.
But I need to engage it if I want more experience and stand heads and shoulders above the other gamers.
Therefore, I immediately waved my sword and rushed up, and chopped down at the head of the me bat with all my might!
Pa Cha!
A very nice number -85 appears on top of the bat!
Woah!! I was pleasantly surprised. The attack with all my strength was indeed impressive. Just one chopwith my sword had already cut down arge portion of the me bats health.
But at this time, the me bat was also annoyed and immediately attacked me. But before it could do so, I quickly hit it again with my sword, and managed to knock off close to 100 hit points!
Finally, the me bats wings hit my arm, and a searing pain erupted.
Combat notice: You have been injured by the me bat, and lost 51 points of health.
Shit! Just a hit from it and a quarter of my health are gone?
I was shocked. This me bat attack is definitely very vicious!
I dare not to waste time. Before the next strike of the me Bat, I must quick finish it. Since this creature is two levels higher than me, and I do not have any defensive equipment, I could only do this if I want to survive.
With two more cha cha sounds resounding when my dended on the me Bat, two massive numbers appeared on top of its head -91, -87!
Although the me Bat speed was not very fast, its second attack had arrived before I managed to kill it.
All I saw was a sh of green, and a poisonous was spat out by the me Bat and hit me. I felt my body getting rigid and my health had dropped by 70 points!
Combat notice: You have been hit with the me Bat poison. Every 3 seconds, you will lose two hit points. This will continue for 60 seconds.
I was slightly surprised. The unavoidable thing had finally happened. But this poison was not as strong nor as scary as I thought. Every 3 seconds it will do 2 points of damage, after 60 seconds, it will only do about 40 points of damage.
But I did not consider that most normal yers could not afford to buy potions. The cheapest potions would require 20 coppers for a sk. Each goblin only drops 2 to 3 coppers. A typical yer could not hope to aplish and take as much risk as I in engaging a me Bat. I was very lucky, but did not even realised my luck!
TwoCha Cha sounds rang out, and my sword quicklynded on the me bat, ying it. After ast dying cry, it dropped to the ground and dropped some coppers.
Ding ~!
Combat notice: You have in a me Bat, and received 120 experience points!
I could helpughing aloud in happiness. It is really true that the greater the danger, the better the rewards. A single goblin only gives ten experience points. But just kill a single me Bat could me 120 experience points!
As I picked up the coins and counted them, I counted 14 coppers. This is also much more generous than the goblins!
But, my health had dropped by more than half. Although the risk is great, it is definitely worth it!
Therefore, I drank a potion, and continued to kill a second me Bat!
In less than one minute, I killed the second me Bat and received 120 experience points and 19 coppers. But there was not a sight of the quest item [Bats blood]
This continues until I killed the fifth me bat, and heard a Pa Ta sound, when a sk of red colour liquid dropped onto the ground.
[Bats Blood] (Quest item)
There seemed to be nothing special about the bat blood, and I just carelessly threw it into my backpack.
Now I had killed five me bats, and received 600 experience points, but I had also drunk two sks of healing potions. It is like 40 coppers had just left me. This expenditure made me wince in pain.
The forest is quiet except for the sound of me Bat pping their wings with a Hu Hu sound. At this time, I heard some sounds from my back. One of the other yers seemed surprised at my appearance: Wow! This guy just soloed a level 5 creature!
I turned my head and saw three level 2 yers hade into this area. Not long after one of them creep up to draw a me Bat towards them. But the me bat was very vicious and immediately bit the yer. In just one attack, half the yers health was lost. The yer immediately turn pale and shouted Lao Er, Lao San, quicklye and help!
The two yers immediately rushed forwards and their short sticks whammed the me Bat on its head. Immediately two numbers appeared on top of that creatures head.

I was watching this screen from a distance, and almostughed out loud. Without any potent weapons, they dare to attack a creature that is three levels above them. This is no different from seeking death.
As I expected, within 2 minutes, all the three men could not withstand the potent attacks of the me Bat, and respawn in the beginners vige in a sh of light. They left a bloody me Bat in the area.
With such an excellent opportunity in front of me, why wouldnt I grab it?
I immediately rushed up and my sword lurched a volley of quick attacks against the injured bat.
Ka Cha!
After the resounding noise of my de hitting the bat, the bat emitted a death cry, and at the same time, there were two Ding Dong sound, as if something had dropped onto the ground.
I immediately searched the ground, and discovered 17 copper coins, and a sk of Bat Blood. Also, there is a coloured leather armour!
I was pleasantly surprised, and immediately picked up the armour, and examined it. <strong></strong><strong>Bat Leather Armour</strong>White colour regr item

Required Level4
I could not helpughing in glee. Even God is helping me! I was quite unhappy that I did not have any suitable armour. But right now, this is the best thing that ever dropped. If the three men knew that the bat they were targeting had dropped this item, they would turn green with envy!
I looked at my experience bar. Just a little bit more and I will reach level 4!
Therefore, I immediately drank a health recovery potion, and attacked a me Bat that was not too far away. After I had killed it, a golden light enveloped me. I had gained a level!
Ding~!
System notification: Congrattions! You have gained a level, and have gained 20 more hits points. You can allocate 5 points of attributes to any of your stats.
Hahaha! I finally can get to work!
I immediately equipped the bat leather armour, and my defence raised from a measly 4 to a 12 points. I also add all five attribute points to my strength, and now my attack has reached 16-21!
Although the bat leather armour is not very good looking, it is the first armour that I had won from monsters drop. This armour could also be the first armour that was dropped in the beginning vige. Therefore, wearing this armour, I was very happy and pleased with it.
Having 12 points of attack, I again target the me bat with my sword, and to my amazement, an incredible number rose from the head of the me bat -248!
What the fuck?!
I could not believe my eyes. One swing of my sword had taken out half of a level 5 beast hitpoints?
I looked at thebat log. Only did I discovered that I hadnded a critical hit.
Even then, with a regr swing of my sword, I could hit a me bat for about 124 points of damage. This could be considered not bad!
At this time, the me Bat retaliated against me, and I felt a small sting. I was shocked to discover that the me Bat poison attack had only done 24 points of damage to me.
I was ted! Looks that wearing this armour have reduced the amount of damage I received greatly. Now I can continuously kill me Bats without worries.
Therefore, after killing the me Bat in front of me, I continued to seek out more me bats to kill.
As the time goes on, after about half an hour, I had already received 19 vitals of bat blood. At the same time, I had levelled up to level 5. Fighting against simr level beast was much easier. With just three swings of my sword, I could annihte a me Bat.
After killing anther me Bat, I picked up the spoils of war- another sk of bats blood.
I counted the number of vials of bats blood and confirmed I had 20 sks! Great. Now I can return andplete the quest!
Therefore, I turned around and prepared to go back to the beginners vige. At this time, I suddenly felt a massive chill in my back. I turned around, and saw something that scared the crap out of me!
Not far away, there suddenly appeared a massive me Bat, and it is at least ten times as big as a normal me Bat. It was floating in the sky like a small aerone. <strong></strong><strong>Variation me Bat</strong>Variation Beast
Level8
Attack20-28

Special AttackPoison
I was shocked. This is a boss level beast. Its attack was so high that it was very scary, doing maximum 28 points of damage with each hit. Its defence was an insane 18 points. My current level 5 character with 26 points of damage could barely break its armour.
The variation bat did not allow me time to think and immediately charged towards me. Its sharp ws racked my armour and left a mark on it.
I felt a massive pain, and from the top of head, a huge number appeared -88
Although this is a lucky number, I could find myself being happy [1]. I immediately retaliated and with a Peng sound, I managed to do 110 points of damage to the beast.
[88 in Chinese sounds the same as fortune. It is considered an auspicious number by Chinese. Yes I know, the authors Chinese jokesdonot trante well among non-Chinese.]
The number is not too bad, but I need to have 20 strikes of the de to kill this variation bat. I looked into my backpack and discovered I had left only five healing points. Would I be able tost and destroy this me bat?
