"Wow, that's a lot of quests with great rewards! I need to level up first. I'll hunt more creatures around here." Said Ray.

Ray looks around and notices multiple footprints in the mud leading away from the burnt-down village. Ray follows the footprint until they disappears.

"I lost the tracks, " Ray said. Ray searched the area where he had lost the tracks and noticed some blood on some leafy bushes.

Ray transforms into the purple poison Lizard. Sniffing the blood and then the air, Ray smells blood coming from the west.

"I can follow the scent of blood in this lizard form. Said Ray.

Ray continues to head west. After traveling for several hours, Ray sees some smoke rising in the distance. Ray heads towards the smoke in sneak mode. After a few minutes, Ray arrived on the outskirts of a small village. The village was an orc village.

Ray thought, "This must be where those orcs came from. I can go and level up now that I know where they are from. I'm not strong enough to kill them yet." Ray decided to head north towards some cliffs.

He travels for about an hour before arriving at the cliffs' base. He notices quite a few purple poison lizards around the base of this cliff.

"I'll hunt and kill these lizards." Said Ray.

Ray sneaks up on the closest lizard and attacks it with its razor-sharp claws. The body of the lizard was torn in half. The lizard's body squirmed for a little while, then died. Ray assimilated the dead lizard. Ray sneaked and ambushed the lizards around him one by one, killing and assimilating them. After two hours of killing purple poison Lizards, Ray only needed one more lizard to level.

"I killed 25 purple poison Lizards; I only need one more kill, " Ray said.

Rays XP is at 290/300 to get to level 2.

Ray looked around for more lizards, but nothing was in sight. He heads along the base of the cliff searching for more lizards. He climbs over a Boulder and spots a purple poison Lizard crawling towards an incline.

Ray rushes over to the purple poison Lizard and leaps towards it. Slashing his claws at the lizard, he hits his target square on its back, gushing chunks of flesh. The purple poison Lizard squeals in pain as they tumble down the incline. Ray rolls onto his lizard legs and pounces ferociously onto the purple poison Lizard, finishing it off with its razor-sharp claws.

Ray gains 10 XP, earning enough XP to level up. System notification: Congratulations, you are now level 2. " Check my stats." Said Ray.

Ray gets up after assimilating the last purple poison Lizard. He looks around and spots a cave entrance at the base of the incline. He heads towards the cave. Ray noticed a lake not too far away from the cave entrance, and a waterfall on the other side of the lake.

"Nice freshwater. I'm going to get me a drink, " Ray said.

He heads to the lake and drinks his fill of water. "Wow! That water is great, so refreshing!" says Ray.

After satisfying his thirst, Ray stares into the clear lake and notices many fish swimming there.

"This place is amazing! I should make it my base camp!" Ray said.

System notification: Ray, you wish to make this area your base? Yes/No.

"Yes! Athena, make this area my base!"

"Affirmative." Said Athena.

As soon as Ray said yes, a blue light came from Ray's body, circled him, and expanded out. The light grew further and further away, forming a circular array. About 50 acres of land were engulfed, creating a barrier.

"What is this barrier?" Ray asked Athena.

"This protective barrier will protect your base for 30 days, " Athena said.

"30 days?" Asked Ray.

"Yes. That's the best way to protect your base until you can build up your base and your strength, " said Athena.
