Chapter 6: Second Enhancement, Hunting Flame Wolves
“What just happened? What fell down?”
Hearing a loud ‘bang’, Han Qinxue hurriedly asked.
“I think I saw the person behind slip and fall down!”
“Ah! I wanted to pull him, but I was too late!” Cai Lang said in a pretentious tone, sounding extremely sincere.
“What? You’re saying Zhou Han fell?”
Han Xiangning, who had just climbed to the top, hurriedly looked down.
Sure enough, Zhou Han’s figure was nowhere to be seen on the rock wall.
Through the dense leaves, she could vaguely see that Zhou Han seemed to be lying on the ground,
but it was unclear what his condition was.
“Zhou Han!”
“Zhou Han, hurry up and come back up!”
Han Xiangning shouted loudly, but Zhou Han didn’t seem to respond at all.
“No, I have to go down and save him.”
“Are you crazy? The Flame Wolf pack is already here. If you go down now, you’re just throwing your life away!”
Han Qinxue quickly stopped her and shouted.
“I… Zhou Han!”
Han Xiangning closed her eyes in despair, hating herself for being shy earlier and not even greeting Zhou Han. Now when they meet again, it would already be a separation between life and death!
“It’s not like there’s no chance. With the strength Zhou Han showed earlier, maybe there’s still a slim chance of survival?”
Han Qinxue said this, though she didn’t even believe it herself—it was just to comfort her younger sister.
“R-really?”
Han Xiangning stared into her eyes, trying to confirm that possibility.
“Mm!”
Seeing the hopeful look in her sister’s eyes, Han Qinxue turned her head away, unable to speak the truth, and nodded gently.
At this moment, Cai Lang sneered inwardly. A miracle?
In just a few minutes, Zhou Han would probably be reduced to nothing, his body gone without a trace.
At that time, that defensive equipment would become his.
Then he would truly take off,
and those two sisters… hehe…
Cai Lang’s heart burned with desire.
…
“Hiss… that hurts!”
After all, Zhou Han was still only level 1, with the body of an ordinary person.
Falling from five or six meters still hurt quite a bit.
The moment he hit the ground, he lost 80 HP.
He was almost at the end already.
[System Notice: Your HP has fallen below 100%. The basic regeneration effect has been automatically triggered!]
The regeneration effect activated and restored him to full health within a few seconds.
But now wasn’t the time to worry about the pain.
Zhou Han looked carefully—
Good lord,
more than a dozen Flame Wolves had already surrounded him.
If he didn’t think of something quickly, he’d be finished.
[Flame Wolf]
[Grade: Normal]
[Level: 1]
[HP: 330]
[Attack: 45]
[Defense: 20]
[Skill: Fire Breath (Launches a fireball, dealing 60 damage to all enemies within a 1-meter range. Cooldown: 30 seconds.)]
[Description: A pack-type beast. Be careful of coordinated attacks.]
If more than a dozen Flame Wolves attacked at once, their combined attack power would exceed 500.
Even with Zhou Han’s 26 defense, he would be instantly killed.
“That’s right—enhancement! Second enhancement!”
Zhou Han felt nervous. This was his last hope. He hoped his SSS-level talent wouldn’t disappoint.
“Enhance the Cotton Cloth Robe!”
[System Notice: You have activated your talent—Infinite Enhancement. Consumed 10 enhancement points. Normal-grade equipment ‘Cotton Cloth Robe +1’ has been successfully enhanced. The new attributes have been automatically updated. Please check.]
There was no time to check now.
The Flame Wolves had already bitten into his arm.
-0

Huh? I’m not losing HP?
Zhou Han’s face lit up. That meant the enhanced defense had become even stronger.
The worry in his heart disappeared.
Taking the opportunity, Zhou Han quickly glanced at the new stats.
[Cotton Cloth Robe +2]
[Grade: Normal]
[Category: Armor]
[Attributes: Defense +50, HP +200]
[Effect 1: Intermediate Regeneration — restores 200 HP per second while equipped. (Cannot exceed max HP)]
[Effect 2: Basic Dodge — 10% chance to dodge normal attacks while equipped]
[Description: Once an ordinary item, now a powerful protection.]
“Damn, this is insane!”
“50 defense and 200 HP—this is crazy strong!” Zhou Han was shocked the moment he saw it.
This level of strength had completely surpassed normal-grade equipment.
And that wasn’t even the end of it.
As Zhou Han read further,
he found there were actually two effects. It was outrageous.
One was intermediate regeneration, restoring 200 HP per second.
The other was basic dodge, giving a chance to avoid attacks.
His defensive power had grown tremendously.
The Flame Wolves’ 45 attack couldn’t even break his defense, which was why Zhou Han remained completely unharmed.
“Woohoo! This feels amazing!” Zhou Han roared in excitement.
The effect of enhancing twice was just too damn powerful.
The Flame Wolves still refused to give up and kept biting, but it was completely useless.
A few wolves showed confusion in their eyes.
If they could speak, they’d probably say:
What the hell, is this really a newbie? He’s a freak.
Unwilling to accept this, the wolves directly used their skill—Fire Breath.
Several blazing fireballs shot toward him.
-10
-10
It only dealt minor damage.
Aside from some smoke, it had no real effect.
The wolves instantly looked as dumbfounded as huskies.
This made no sense!
“You bunch of beasts, today I’m going to skin you all!”
At first, Zhou Han had been scared.
But after the second enhancement, the robe’s stats had increased massively.
He had nothing to fear from these Flame Wolves.
Even if a hundred came, they couldn’t harm him at all.
Even their skills only dealt 10 damage,
and with 200 HP restored every second, it was nothing.
Zhou Han raised his iron sword and began slashing wildly.
There was no technique at all—he just attacked repeatedly, since the more hits he landed, the higher the chance of triggering effects.
[You triggered the Tetanus effect!]
[You triggered the Tetanus effect!]
[You triggered the Basic Dodge effect!]
…
Soon, under Zhou Han’s fierce attacks, more and more Flame Wolves fell into the Tetanus state.
Every few seconds, one would collapse.
The remaining wolves were terrified.
Zhou Han was like a berserker—unstoppable and fearless.
Though not very intelligent, the wolves weren’t stupid.
Realizing Zhou Han was too strong, and seeing their companions fall,
they knew continuing was pointless.
Without hesitation, they tucked their tails and fled.
“Damn it, trying to run?”
“You’re all my enhancement points!”
In an instant, the situation reversed.
Zhou Han chased with his sword,
while the Flame Wolves fled in panic.
A group of players nearby happened to witness this scene, and they were all stunned.
What the hell is going on?
Rubbing their eyes, they confirmed it wasn’t an illusion.
There’s actually someone in this area hunting Flame Wolves?
This guy is more savage than the beasts themselves!
One of them opened the chat and sent a message.
“Guys, I just saw someone chasing a group of Flame Wolves with an iron sword.”
“Bro, you can’t just make stuff up like that. That’s way too exaggerated!”
“Are you doing stand-up comedy? Four of us can’t even handle one Flame Wolf. Who’s that strong?”
“I really saw it! My teammates can confirm!”
“I’m Chen Beixuan with a B-grade talent, and even I don’t dare solo a Flame Wolf. No one else could do it either! Everyone disperse, stop listening to this nonsense!”
No one in the chat believed it. They all thought he was just seeking attention.
The man was a bit stunned. Looking around, Zhou Han was already gone.
Was it really just an illusion?
“Huff… huff…”
After chasing for who knows how long, Zhou Han couldn’t keep up anymore.
He panted heavily and had to stop to rest.
“These huskies really run fast!”
Out of 15 Flame Wolves, he killed 11.
The remaining four were too fast and escaped.
After resting for a while, Zhou Han began checking his gains.
To his disappointment, none of the eleven wolves dropped any equipment.
The drop rate was just too low.
If even normal-grade equipment had such a low drop rate, higher-grade bronze equipment must be even rarer.
At least his copper coins had increased quite a bit.
If he couldn’t get equipment drops, he could buy some from the blacksmith in the city—but the prices weren’t cheap.
Looks like he still needed to earn more gold. He was too poor right now.
Also, going back and forth would take too much time.
Zhou Han decided to keep grinding for now.
If by nightfall he still didn’t get any drops, he would consider buying instead.
But before continuing,
there was one thing he had to deal with.
“Damn it, you dared to scheme against me!”
“Today I’ll tear you to pieces!”
A gentleman’s revenge is never delayed.
Zhou Han had no grudge with Cai Lang, yet he had been set up like this.
Killing intent filled his eyes.
He also realized the cruelty of this world.
Unlike Blue Star,
there were no restraints here.
Compared to monsters, other players were the real threat.
Except for safe zones where fighting was forbidden,
anything could happen in combat zones outside the city.
If he showed mercy, he might be the one who gets killed.
After understanding this,
Zhou Han, filled with killing intent, headed back toward the previous direction.
