Looking at Maple, who was brushing off her clothes, Mu Chen asked, "Do you want to team up?"
Who is a shield girl?
A meat shield!
Mu Chen's only shortcoming was his defense, and teaming up with Maple would perfectly complement each other!
Moreover... this was a european emperor (lucky person)!
It was well known that following a european emperor (lucky person) meant equipment would drop like crazy!
Mu Chen felt that if Maple did a ten-pull gacha, she would definitely get ten golds!
He couldn't compare to this abhorrent european emperor (lucky person).
"Okay~!"
Maple nodded like a chick pecking rice. She was just a newbie who had just started playing the game and didn't know anyone, so teaming up with Mu Chen would provide some support.
"Let's go, let's hunt some monsters~"
Mu Chen smiled and walked deeper into the forest.
Upon hearing this, Maple took a step, wanting to follow Mu Chen, but her speed was very slow, just her initial speed value, somewhat like an old person walking.
Seeing this, Mu Chen stopped, silently watching Maple.
Under his gaze, Maple awkwardly scratched her head with her small hand.
"Um~~ I put all my initial attribute points into defense, so my current defense value is two hundred and twenty."
Her small face was shy, rosy like an apple. She was just too afraid of pain, so she maxed out her defense.
Two hundred and twenty?!
Mu Chen's eyes widened. He had only thirty-six points from doing things related to speed.
Both of them were level one, but the difference in values was too great.
What was going on?
"What's your talent?"
After thinking for a moment, Mu Chen felt it must be a talent issue.
"It's called Earth Defense, and it can increase my defense by four times!"
Maple replied, then explained, "Because I specialized in defense, when my defense reached over one hundred, I triggered a specialization achievement reward, which gave me one hundred defense attribute points."
Hearing this, Mu Chen suddenly understood.
So it was a talent and specialization reward.
He put all his points into speed and got "Space Mastery" related to speed, while Maple put all her points into defense and also got "Earth Defense" related to defense.
This was a very good thing.
Moreover, if Maple could trigger the specialization reward, he should be able to as well.
Other players probably couldn't, as they weren't specialists.
Mu Chen and Maple were one assassin and one meat shield.
Attack, defense, and speed were all covered.
Seeing Mu Chen deep in thought, Maple asked curiously, "Chen-kun, how did you allocate your initial attribute points? And what's your talent?"
Mu Chen smiled brightly, "Because I had to escape... Ah, no! Because I wanted to be like the wind, to happily E, so I put all points into speed. My initial talent is Space Mastery."
He could just directly state his talent.
With his Space Mastery talent, as soon as he used it, others would clearly guess it, so there was no need to hide it.
"Happily E?"
Maple was full of questions, not understanding what Mu Chen was saying, but when she heard that Mu Chen had put all points into speed, she immediately felt a sense of camaraderie.
"That's great~! Chen-kun, do you have any skills?"
"Skills? I have one exclusive skill."
"I also have a skill, but it's not an exclusive skill. This skill is Taunt."
The skill Maple obtained was the Taunt skill, which most meat shields desired.
After hearing this, Mu Chen looked at Maple with great satisfaction.
"Very good! When the time comes, I'll use my speed to pull monsters over to you, and then you can use Taunt to attract them. Level five monsters have one hundred attack power, but they won't deal damage to you. Teaming up, we can level up easily."
In an instant, Mu Chen had planned out exactly how to level up.
"Eh?!"
Maple's bright, watery eyes widened. "We can do that?"
"Of course, but I want to try creating a skill first."
"Creating a skill?"
"Yes!"
Mu Chen wanted to see if he could create skills, after all, this was a comprehensive anime world with Master Tong and Lao Po Na!
Thinking this, he began to consider his own conditions.
Space Mastery and speed were his strengths.
If he were to create a skill, he would have to base it on these two points.
The first skill he wanted to create was the famous "Space Movement"!
This skill wasn't difficult; with his talent bonus, he believed he could create it quickly.
Closing his eyes, Mu Chen activated his talent.
The power of space gradually became clear in his perception, and he observed it carefully.
After ten minutes, Mu Chen seemed to have found a certain point, and with a "whoosh," his figure appeared twenty meters away.
[Congratulations to player for creating exclusive skill "Space Movement"]
[Space Movement: Can move freely to any location. The stronger the mana, the greater the movement distance!]
"It worked!"
Mu Chen opened his eyes and smiled.
This skill consumed half his mana to move only twenty meters. It seemed that if he wanted to cast it continuously, his level was very important!
Thinking of this, Mu Chen used Space Movement again, returning to Maple's front.
"Wow~ This is Space Movement!"
Maple's eyes sparkled with little stars.
This kind of skill was too cool, truly befitting a player who put all points into speed.
"Let's go, let's level up."
Seeing her so cute, Mu Chen couldn't help but reach out and give her a pat on the head.
Maple's cheeks were flushed, but she didn't refuse.
[Ding, player "Chen-kun" has sent you a team invitation.]
[Do you accept?]
Maple clicked accept.
Team formation complete, Mu Chen scanned the forest.
"Maple, wait here. I'll go pull the wild monsters."
"Okay."
Hearing this, Mu Chen took a step and ran into the forest... An hour and a half later,
Mu Chen and Maple, holding their weapons, slumped on the ground, panting heavily, looking very exhausted.
Around them were numerous monster corpses!
At least fifty or sixty!
[Congratulations to player for creating exclusive skill]
[Space Illusory Step: While running, space is attached to the soles of the feet, forming a one to two-meter illusory step, allowing for rapid displacement.]
"That's great, another skill."
Mu Chen smiled slightly and opened his attribute panel.
[Nickname: Chen-kun]
[Level: 5]
[HP: 500 / 500]
[MP: 10 / 500]
[Attack: 10 | Defense: 10 | Spirit: 10 | Speed: 60]
[Talent: Space Mastery]
[Skills: Speed Space (Exclusive), Space Movement (Exclusive), Space Illusory Step (Exclusive)]
[Equipment: None]
With each level up, all four main stats would receive one attribute point increase, and five free attribute points would be given.
Mu Chen still did the same as before, directly allocating these attribute points to speed.
