Chapter 12 – Silver Python King

　　“Roar,” the black wolf attacked once more. However, Fatty was now able to handle it casually. He easily dodged the wolf’s bites, then occasionally either used Combo Attack on its waist, or kicked it again. In a mere few minutes, the black wolf yammered, then died.

　　Whoosh. Two items dropped. One was a piece of meat, which Fatty picked up to have a look at.

　　Wolf Meat

　　Mission Item

　　It wasn’t much use, but Fatty chucked it into his bag. The other was a long saber, which was gleaming with a hint of green.

　　Thorn Saber

　　Bronze

　　Longsword

　　Level Requirement: 8

　　Attack: 12 – 15

　　Strength: +1

　　Cla.s.s Requirement: Warrior, Knight

　　Not bad. Higher level monsters are truly richer. This saber has a much higher attack than the custom saber in the weapon shop. Ahhh, what pitiful players the others are, some of them can’t even afford the custom sabers, and have to use their starting items.

　　Fatty put the saber away, then used Harvest on the corpse, which netted him a full wolf skin.

　　Undamaged Wolf Skin

　　Basic Tailoring Material

　　Not bad, that’s pretty decent. Fatty happily walked off to continue to harvest more white cogon roots while killing black wolves or pythons.

　　There was actually quite a lot of white cogon roots in the area. Although Fatty only harvested in a corner of the Blackthorn Forest, he had already gotten the 200 needed. However, since he guessed that there might be other uses for the herb in the future, he continued to harvest more. At the same time, he also collected twenty something pieces of wolf meat, and was about half way done with the farmer’s mission.

　　Overall, the black wolves and pythons did give him a good chunk of experience. After killing quite a few of them, Fatty had finally reached level 8. This time, he clenched his teeth and added his new stat points to endurance instead, then equipped the dagger he swiped from the blacksmith.

　　Dark Star Dagger

　　Bronze

　　Dagger

　　Level Requirement: 8

　　Attack: 10 – 12

　　Strength: +3

　　…

　　As Fatty harvested white cogon roots with great excitement, he gradually entered the depths of the Blackthorn Woods. Right after he used up two pots to kill three more black wolves, he heard a hissing in the distance.

　　The sound was strange, creepy, and cold. It was enough to cause a person to tremble in their heart. Due to his experience, Fatty understood that the boss had appeared.

　　He silently climbed up a tree, then looked afar. At quite a distance in front of him, a huge silver python that was as thick as a water bucket was slowly feeding on a black wolf in the center of ten-odd pythons.

　　Fatty wiped away the sweat from his face when he saw the silver python swallow the black wolf whole. Then, he made an approximate measure of his stomach and nodded. If I go over, I’ll get swallowed whole as well.

　　He used Appraisal onto the monster, causing its stats to appear in front of his eyes.
