Samsara Online
Chapter 13: Greed is the source of disaster

Xie Feng went step by step to the body of the BOOS 3 Suns and collected 4 potions of mana recovery and all the scattered coins. Xie Feng was surprised by the number of coins in the place.

When he counted them he was even more surprised because in reality, this BOSS dropped 50 silver coins.

He put all the coins in his inventory and finally took the two objects dropped by the boar.

[Boots of Wild Boar]

Equipment Requirement: Level 5 / 8 STR

Grade: Iron

Properties: Defense +7 / movement speed +3

Note: Because they are made of wild boar skin they are extremely resistant.

[Shoulder pads of Wild Boar]

Equipment Requirement: Level 5 / 8 STR

Grade: Iron

Properties: Defense +10

Note: Because they are made of wild boar skin they have a good defense.

The stats of the iron equipment are approximately twice as good as those of the steel equipment. In addition, being a level 5 items, the statistics are several times higher than the armor that is currently using Xie Feng.

Because Xie Feng doesn't want to be on low level maps because of the large amount of people around him, he was fighting on high level maps compared to the current level of the players.

This has a disadvantage: the items obtained by level 5 monsters are naturally level 5 items. Therefore, Xie Feng cannot use them at present.

In other words, Xie Feng is still wearing pants and shoes without statistics. So, when he reaches level 5, his strength will increase quite a bit.

Especially the boots. Boots are one of the few items that give players a speed boost, the speed attribute being one of the most difficult to increase in the whole game.

Xie Feng didn't seem too excited to see the items that the Giant Wild Jaali dropped. He simply took one look at them and casually threw them into the inventory. After that, he continued to go into the forest.

His destination was, naturally: Valley of the Wolves

...

After walking for a few more minutes, the wolf pack reappeared in front of Xie Feng's eyes.

For 99% of the players of Samsara Online, these wolves are no different than a free ticket to the beginner's village. Dead, naturally.

However, to Xie Feng these red-eyed wolves are no different than the rabbits on the first map. Even without the Ring of the God of Destruction, Xie Feng has absolute confidence in killing these wolves easily.

When Xie Feng entered the territory of the wolves, one of them that was previously lying on the ground: he stood up and howled, alerting another wolf.

Both wolves ran quickly to Xie Feng with the intention of ending his life.

Xie Feng did not wait for the wolves to approach and ran towards them proactively.

***

While Xie Feng was killing wolves to raise his level while completing the mission given by the old hunchback Xiao Lei.

Resurrection point of Beginner's Village 666:

The novice priest looked on in amazement at his two teammates who had just appeared at the same time at the Resurrection Point.

Soon, the novice priest smiled bitterly and said

"Did that BOSS?"

The wizard gritted his teeth in hatred and responded:

"That BOSS was not the one who killed us. The one who did it was that guy who was there from the beginning but had not moved."

The eyes of the novice magician glowed with greed as he thought of the magical power of the ring that Xie Feng had and said to the novice warrior

"First brother, we should call other members who are also in Beginner's Village 666 and surround that little bastard."

The novice warrior who had been silent all this time trembled when he heard the words of the wizard and cried out:

"Are you crazy!? Let me tell you this, second: no matter what, don't provoke that person anymore... the greed is the source of disaster"

After saying that, the novice warrior suddenly seemed to realize something and quickly disconnected without waiting for the magician's response.

The novice magician and the priest looked at each other in a daze as they saw the strange behavior of their usually proud team leader.

The novice priest was not present when Xie Feng killed his teammates and felt that it was rare for just one person to defeat two people of the same level. Moreover, he clearly remembers that Xie Feng was wearing rookie gear.

While the novice magician didn't think of anything like that. The magician was completely blinded by greed and desire to have the ring. Therefore, he completely ignored the fact that Xie Feng dodged all of his magic bullets without difficulty.

The novice magician's eyes glowed slightly and he lifted his wrist.

The only way to communicate over long distances in this world is by means of a bracelet that all players can buy for free in the general store.

The novice magician wore the bracelet near his mouth and began to speak.

***

[Ding!...your level has increased to level 3. HP +10 MP +10. You have received 5 status points.]

Because BOSS had given him more than half a level, it took Xie Feng approximately 40 minutes to level up. Leveling up at Samsara Online is not easy, as the difference in experience needed for each level is completely different.

Xie Feng put the 5 status points he got when he leveled up in Vitality, breaking the 10 point mark for a total of 12.

Now, his basic attribute status window looked like this:

[Player: Shiva]

Battle zone: China

Level: 3

VIT: 12

STR: 9

AGI: 4

INT: 15

Luck: 10

Charm: 20

As Xie Feng watched his status window he was also thinking about something that was bothering him.

Normally, Xie Yao would open it and contact him immediately after she logged on. However, she still did not call him, which Xie Feng found strange.

Xie Feng logged on to the official game forum and logged on to the long distance communications tab, then he started reading.

The intercom not only served as a means of chatting between players within the Samsara world: it also served to communicate with people in real life as long as you set the bracelet correctly.

In addition, the bracelet also serves to connect directly to the game forum in case players need to know information about a boss or a specific map.

Of course, the information is very basic. But it is still better than nothing.

After reading for about 5 minutes, Xie Feng finally understood the reason why Xie Yao had not contacted him yet. In reality, communications between the different beginner villages were blocked: that is, players cannot communicate with people who are in another village than their own at the beginning of the game.

Xie Feng looked at the time on the digital clock and saw that it was almost 3 pm. This means that it had been almost 3 hours since Samsara Online officially started.

Due to the excitement of the moment, Xie Feng completely forgot that he had not eaten lunch yet.

[Ding!...someone from the outside world is trying to call you. Do you want to connect the call?

Accept / Reject]

"Reject."

Xie Feng shook his head and rejected the call, he knew the caller was actually Xie Yao telling him to come out so the two of them could have lunch together.

Xie Feng entered the menu and then the game options, then he pressed the disconnect button.

A system message sounded in his ears:

[You will be disconnected in 10 seconds. Hope you will return soon.]

10

9

8

7

.

.

To disconnect a player cannot be hit by an enemy. The player can be chased, but if during those 10 seconds he / she is hit even once then the disconnection will be stopped automatically.

[You are being disconnected.]

Xie Feng soon felt his world darkened, being successfully disconnected.
