Chapter 8

I had just taken a step to leave when I felt something tug at my clothes.

Turning around, I saw a tall hat tip in front of me. Looking down, I saw a short figure hidden by a huge magic hat.

Who is this? What are you doing pulling me? I was immediately filled with confusion.

The owner of the tall hat raised her head, revealing a delicate, porcelain doll-like face, with a pair of lifeless eyes staring at me like a puppet.

Hmm~! It feels somewhat familiar, but I can't quite place it. It seems to be related to something important, but I have no recollection of it. I rested my chin on my hand, trying hard to remember.

"Clap clap clap!"

Pink lips parted slightly, and the puppet-like girl uttered three syllables that were difficult to decipher.

Clap clap clap? Clapping? Or spanking? Is she going to have sex with me?

Ah! Right, I think I came here to change jobs, then chose a woman as my contracted pet, and then I was going to merge with her and transform. I clapped my hands, suddenly realizing.

The image of the contracted pet I chose was blurry in my memory, but it gradually became clearer, finally overlapping with the porcelain doll-like girl in front of me.

Damn it! How could I forget something so important! Those two pets must have absorbed my memories too. And what's with your barely perceptible presence?!

A series of mental tantrums erupted within me. I roared inwardly.

Even a strong woman like Xue Ye could pique my interest. But facing this lifeless, doll-like woman, it was utterly impossible.

Only a professional otaku could achieve the transcendent state of remaining still while mentally engaging, able to fire seven or eight shots at a perfectly sized figurine. My skills in that area were simply lacking!

Damn it! I'm already in this holy land for men, why should I envy such abilities! It's completely useless!

After all, I've already had two rounds, and the sperm in my brain has returned. To get an erection again, I need at least some stimulation. But this "three-no" girl clearly lacked any such "sentiment." Unable to pique my interest, I couldn't complete the job change, which immediately frustrated me.

Seemingly understanding my predicament, the witch pulled down her magic hat, her long, jet-black hair cascading down her back like a veil. Her exquisitely crafted doll-like face, paired with her meticulously manicured, smooth hair, made her resemble a beautiful figurine displayed in a shop window.

Removing her hat, the witch winked at me, her small hand lifting a strand of hair and placing it between her cherry lips. Her hand slid down her jade-like cheek. Head held high, chest puffed out, her little bottom swaying slightly, she then extended a delicate, white leg from her magic robe, tilting her chest back in a seductive pose. Finally, her small hand traced her smooth leg, giving me a knowing wink.

"..."

A bead of cold sweat dripped from my forehead.

Please, even if your pose is perfect and alluring, with that expressionless face, it has absolutely no seductive effect!

"Tch!"

Seeing that I remained unmoved, the emotionless witch scoffed in dissatisfaction. She knelt down in front of me again, took out my penis, and began to stroke it.

"Ah! Oh! Hmm! Hmm! Ah!"

As she stroked it, the little witch uttered syllables, seemingly trying to produce lewd moans. Her

cries, devoid of any emotion, were utterly arousing! And your stiff, lifeless rubbing technique—even a cheap prostitute on the street for ten dollars a time could do it better! Did you even bother learning the techniques the madam taught you?! I looked up, tears streaming down my face.

"Hey! Help her out. At this rate, I'm going to get a sore spot."

My limp penis ached from the little witch's stiff rubbing. I could only turn to the dark elf beside me for help again.

This woman had been laughing uncontrollably all along, and when I called her, she immediately suppressed her laughter, knelt beside the little witch, and took over the task.

The dark elf was far more skillful than the "emotionless" witch. She first lubricated the penis in her mouth, then gently kneaded it in her hands.

Her smooth little hands gently grasped the penis, stroking it up and down, her fragrant tongue lightly licking the glans, shaft, and scrotum, occasionally stimulating the urethra. The dark elf carefully soothed the penis, which had been ravaged by her demonic hands. The penis gradually revived in the dark elf's hands, becoming erect again.

The little witch beside her, watching her companion's actions, her delicate face expressionless, yet a look of sudden understanding flickered in her eyes. She nodded repeatedly, observing carefully, truly a studious child.

Suddenly, the little witch pulled a small notebook from her bosom and began scribbling furiously on it. ...Even if she were very studious, she didn't need to memorize this kind of thing. Sweating profusely, I curiously looked at the notebook she was writing in.

On the pristine white page, the little witch drew a phallic symbol, carefully ticking the glans, circling the shaft, and finally scrunching an X over the scrotum. The meaning was clear: she'd marked all the sensitive spots on my penis.

But! Don't cross out my precious scrotum, you idiot woman!

I slammed a knife into the little witch's forehead, tears streaming down my face. Were you selling your own decency, or smashing my decency bottle?

I was utterly speechless at this shameless, three-nothing witch. No, if this continues, I'll probably be stuck here all day. Since my penis is already hard, I should hurry and change jobs before she makes me impotent again. Thinking this, I picked up the little witch and placed her on the torture bed in the center.

I lifted her wide magic robe, revealing a bare, exquisitely sculpted body.

Her pink skin, radiating a crystalline glow, resembled a perfect work of art. Her petite breasts, bursting with youthful energy, were adorned with two beautiful red nipples. Her delicate, pink body was so beautiful that it ignited a burning passion within me.

However, beneath that exquisite form clung to a wicked tentacle-like creature, firmly attached to the little witch's lower body, wriggling slightly. This added a touch of lewdness to the beautiful figure before me.

Grabbing the black mass of flesh, I tried to remove it. But the tentacle was incredibly stubborn. A tangerine-like protrusion emerged from the vaginal opening, while a long, thin, thick hand remained inserted into the little witch's urethra. It took more than a meter of pulling before the wicked hand was finally freed. The thin threads were covered in glistening fluid, and the still-unhealed urethral opening, like fish lips, spewed forth streams of water.

I thought I could remove it now, but a small suction cup remained firmly gripping the girl's tender bud. The fleshy mound was pulled up, and the girl's bud, like a seedling being pulled up to grow, was also pulled up.

"Mmm..."

The intense stimulation in her lower body caused the little witch to let out a genuine moan, a soft, clear cry.

With a soft "pop," the suction cup finally detached from the bud, and the freed clitoris shyly tried to retreat back into the protection of her labia. However, it seemed that because it had been forcibly pulled, it had lost its elasticity, or had been stretched too much, and for a moment it couldn't hide back. Wet, glistening, and pink, it was exposed outside the delicate scrotum, like a newly sprouted flower bud, vibrant and alluring.

I removed the entire fleshy mound and tossed it aside. With such a lewd object still clinging to her private parts, the little witch's genitals were already a muddy mess, glistening with moisture covering the pink petals, and a bright red bud peeking out from the labia, like a sprout standing upright on the mound.

Gazing at this beautiful sight, I couldn't resist touching it. The soft, fleshy texture made me feel how incredibly tender that area was. Peeling back the fleshy mound revealed two bright red petals, and a small, translucent, pinkish bud appeared between them.

The erect, tender bud was extremely alluring, plump, red, and glistening with moisture. Touching the bud with my fingers immediately made the little witch tremble all over, making soft "woof woof" sounds.

The understanding black elf then climbed behind me, gently embracing me, her jade-like body pressed tightly against my back. She rubbed her not-so-full, but extremely elastic breasts against my back. The two protruding buds rubbing against my back felt exceptionally vivid.

Pulling the little witch's body closer, I placed her legs on my knees, aimed my penis at the wet opening, and slowly inserted it.

"Ugh~!"

The thick, fleshy glans broke through the never-before-opened orifice. The little witch's delicate brows furrowed, and she cried out in pain, her small hands gripping the sides of the torture bed tightly.

The glans pressed against the full, alluring mound of flesh, the smooth, moist touch of her tender orifice arousing my heart. Ignoring all tenderness, I grabbed the little witch's waist and thrust my penis in.

"Ah...ugh!"

The intense pain of losing her virginity caused the little witch to cry out, her face turning pale instantly.

I stopped after the forceful thrust. I saw that the taut joint began to ooze thin strands of red fluid, which dripped onto the torture bed.

A virgin's honey hole is naturally very narrow, and the honey hole of the petite witch was even tighter, the opening almost stretched to its limit to accommodate my penis.

Seeing his companion's pained expression, the dark elf immediately turned to face us, pounced on the little witch, and began to gently lick her private parts. His fragrant tongue slid between our joined bodies, occasionally releasing saliva to moisten the area.

His primary target was her clitoris; his cherry lips caressed it, moving it up and down like oral sex, his tongue lightly touching and teasing the tip.

I knew then that it wasn't wise to force it; I needed to give her time to adjust. I kneaded the little witch's adorable breasts with both hands.

Under the caresses of the dark elf and me, the little witch finally adapted to the penis inside her, and her body responded.

Her nipples hardened and protruded, her glistening body flushed pink, her tense body writhed restlessly, and her vagina began to secrete copious amounts of vaginal fluid. Soft, delicate moans escaped her lips, stirring arousal within me.

Seeing that it was almost time, I thrust my penis in and out slowly.

The virgin's vagina was incredibly fresh and delicious, its walls clinging tightly to my shaft, leaving almost no gap. The tight, oppressive feeling gave me immense pleasure, and my thrusts gradually quickened.

"Ha~! Ha~! Ah..."

Soft moans escaped the little witch's lips. Her previously expressionless face flushed with desire, her beautiful eyes closed, her lips slightly parted, and she breathed softly, her breath sweet as orchids. The

rising pleasure made the little witch more proactive. Her breasts thrust upwards repeatedly, hoping I would squeeze them harder, her waist twisting and swaying, driving my penis to rub against the most thirsty part of her vagina. Her juices flowed like a stream from the opening.

I also changed my tactics, grabbing the little witch's pert buttocks and thrusting wildly. Her exquisite body trembled under my impact. In such intense movements, the dark elf could no longer catch that clitoris, and instead embraced and kissed the little witch.

This turn brought the dark elf's slender buttocks to my side. Her pink vulva, which I had already plucked, stood out so vividly and alluringly against her dark skin.

I couldn't resist placing my hand on her buttocks, my fingers probing into her tender opening, slowly probing and twisting inside.

The invasion of this foreign object immediately aroused her senses; her buttocks writhed restlessly, offering themselves to my hand in a pleading manner, her movements incredibly cute.

While feeling the tenderness and heat of her flesh with my fingers, I enjoyed the exquisite beauty of the little witch's virginity with my penis; the pleasure was indescribable. With a frenzied expression, I thrust wildly into her two vulvas, as if to torture them to death, frantically assaulting my two beautiful pets.

Being a virgin, the little witch couldn't withstand such a rapid onslaught, and soon showed signs of orgasm. Her vulva overflowed with juices, the walls gradually contracted, and the temperature inside rose, making me shout with pleasure.

"Mmm~! Ugh... Ugh..."

With her mouth blocked by the dark elf, the little witch, on the verge of climax, let out moans from her throat, each one longer and higher than the last.

Reaching her peak, the little witch gripped the sides of the torture bed tightly, her delicate body arching upwards, her legs taut, and her whole body convulsed.

At that moment, I also felt a strange energy emanating from her honeyed orifice, rushing into my body like a ferocious beast from our point of union, wildly ravaging my blood.

The excruciating pain, like being pulled out of my marrow, made my face pale, so painful I couldn't even scream. Only after that energy spread throughout my entire body did I feel a warm current rising in every extremity, then beginning to counterattack that foreign energy.

The pain, starting from my fingertips, soles of my feet, and the top of my head, was gradually dispelled, like a collapsing army; the influx of energy crumbled and disintegrated before my warmth. Finally, it merged with the warmth, surging towards my heart from all directions.

All the heat converged in my heart, and for a moment I felt as if my heart had been struck by a heavy hammer, seemingly stopping for a split second.

Thump! Thump! Thump!

Slowly, my heart began to beat again, each beat heavier and louder than the last, the pulsation almost ringing in my ears.

Whoosh… With the force of a wildfire, a ball of heat burst forth from my heart, engulfing my entire body, making me feel as if I were burning.

In truth, I couldn't see the changes within myself. Before, my entire body had instantly lost its color. But then, a red light rose from where my heart was, restoring color to my body. A

faint purple glow emanated from around my black pupils; my skin deepened, turning a blood-red bronze; muscles bulged beneath my skin, making my body stronger and more powerful.

"Ding! Job change successful! Race scan in progress."

"Scan complete, special ability system activated."

"Bloodline value activated, recalculating."

"Calculation complete, talent system activated!"

The system's cold notification sounded in my ears, announcing that I had finally become a demon warrior.

Job change successful, I put down the little witch's beautiful body and jumped off the torture bed. I felt my whole body suddenly filled with power, and my strength seemed to have increased several times in an instant.

Looking at my attributes, sure enough, two major talents had been added to my attributes. It was these two talents that made my attributes skyrocket.

Demon Body: Constitution conversion effect doubled, bloodline was halved and converted into health points and stamina points. Magic resistance 10%. Berserk: Strength conversion effect doubled, attack speed increased by 20%. In addition to the attribute bonuses from the talents, there was another key factor that made me feel like I had unlimited vitality. Bloodline value doubled. Since I had already activated my bloodline value, the magic power infused by the little witch expanded my bloodline, causing it to skyrocket to 108 points.

Successfully changing jobs officially placed me among the players of *Eden*.

After dressing, I led the only mobile dark elf out of the room. As for the remaining girls, someone else would take care of them.

"By the way, I still don't know your name,"

I asked the dark elf as I walked out.

"My lord, my name is Nicole,"

the dark elf replied.

"I don't have many rules around me, relax. No need for 'my lord' or 'my lord' address,"

I nodded and said.

"Yes, master,"

this woman's charm lies in her obedience; she immediately understood and addressed me. It seems she and Mimi will get along quite well in the future.

As we spoke, we returned to the hall, where the two madams were still "greeting guests" outside the door. Seeing me emerge, the succubus madam immediately approached with a coquettish laugh, exclaiming, "My lord, you've finally come out! It's been quite a long time. Are you satisfied with my daughter? Haven't those other girls come out yet? They must be exhausted from your ministrations. My lord is truly valiant. I also congratulate you on officially becoming a member of my clan."

A series of choruses followed, causing me to frown. I said in a deep voice, "Enough nonsense. I want to take Nicole and Blood Night with me. Tell me, what are your conditions?"

"Oh, my lord, my daughters are all entertainers, not prostitutes. Aren't you putting me in a difficult position?"

The succubus tossed aside her handkerchief, feigning distress.

Damn it, "entertainers, not prostitutes"—that's how you interpret it. I was sweating bullets.

Upon hearing the madam's words, Nicole's face turned pale, and she gripped my hand tightly, fearing I would abandon her.

"What do you mean by selling? I've got money, just name your price."

Although I wanted to shout it out so boldly, the few gold coins in my pocket really made me lack the confidence.

I patted Nicole's little hand to reassure her and said to the madam, "You've seen clearly, Nicole has already formed a contract with me. She's my contracted pet now, can't I take her away?"

"Huh?"

The succubus was clearly stunned and immediately stared at Shadowmoon's forehead, examining it closely.

"How is this possible? Her contract seal was clearly broken, how did it reform?"

After staring for a while, the succubus suddenly exclaimed.

I couldn't help but look at Shadowmoon's forehead as well, but unfortunately, I couldn't see any pattern at all. I guess the system NPC used some special method. However, this exclamation reassured me a little; at least Nicole hadn't lied to me and had really formed a contract with me.

"What's wrong?"

Hearing the succubus's exclamation, the dark elf madam also came over and asked.

"Look at her contract seal,"

the succubus said to the dark elf, pointing at the moon shadow.

"This! How could this be!"

The dark elf was also shocked, his expression changing as he exclaimed, "Wait, could it be…?"

"My lord, if I may ask, did you already activate your Sacred Vein before?"

the dark elf madam asked me in a panic.

What is a Sacred Vein? But I immediately understood. Demons like to call themselves the Sacred Race, so the Sacred Vein was self-evident—it was my bloodline power.

"That's right, I did activate my bloodline power before,"

I nodded slightly.

"No wonder. Only the purest Sacred Vein power can re-establish a contract seal for a contracted pet whose virginity has been broken,"

the succubus said, suddenly understanding.

"This lowly one was blind and ignorant, neglecting the True Demon Lord. I beg your forgiveness,"

the succubus said, immediately kneeling on the ground, speaking in unison with the dark elf.

True Demon? What exactly happened? "Sacred veins and True Demons? Stop messing with me, will you?"

But seeing the two madams' trembling expressions, I adopted a haughty demeanor and said loudly, "Get up. Ignorance is no excuse. Explain to me what's going on."

"Yes, sir. However, given the True Demon's status, I have no right to answer. Please come to the inner hall, where the Demon Envoy will explain in detail,"

the dark elf said, bowing her head in fear.

"Then lead the way."

Since I couldn't get an answer from these two madams, I waved her away.

I wonder what kind of person this Demon Envoy is; probably a high-ranking NPC. Maybe with my True Demon status, I can even get some extra rewards. I couldn't help but fantasize. Divine artifacts! Treasures! Beauties!

Just give them away! Isn't that how it's written in those light novels?

"Yes, sir, this way please."

The dark elf quickly rose and led the way, while the succubus rushed inside, presumably to deliver a message.

Following the dark elf, we returned to the inner courtyard, but this time we didn't go to a room. The dark elf led me into an elevator, which closed the doors and slowly ascended.

After about five or six floors, the elevator stopped. As soon as the doors opened, I found myself in a grand hall. A deep red carpet stretched to the very end of the hall, with black stone pillars lining the passageways, interspersed with lampposts flickering with eerie green magical flames, illuminating the enclosed hall in a dim light. It seemed to stretch endlessly.

Stepping out of the elevator, the dark elf beside me immediately knelt down. Then, with

two crisp "crack!" sounds, the flames on the lampposts suddenly surged, turning a fiery red. The ceiling also lit up, countless chandeliers illuminating the entire hall. The darkness ahead dissipated, revealing a series of steps leading to the end of the hall. At the top of the steps stood a tall stone chair, clearly a king's throne. However, it was empty; no one sat upon it.

"Welcome to the Demon Palace Sanctuary, Your Majesty, True Demon,"

a hoarse voice rang out. From a side door beside the throne, a figure draped in a grey cloak emerged and addressed me. Behind this figure stood the succubus who had arrived earlier, bowing and holding her breath. Upon seeing me, she immediately knelt on the ground.

The grey-robed figure slowly walked to me, removing the cloak from his head. A狰狞 (zhengning, meaning ferocious or hideous) face came into view, with curved horns on his bald forehead. His entire face was a blazing red, like flames. A black dragon was tattooed across the left side of his face, from his head to his chin. Golden eyes calmly gazed at me, and his entire body exuded a powerful aura. This person was clearly a high-ranking male demon.

"Who are you?"

I frowned and asked the demon.

"Thanks to the favor of the Demon God, I, Tuks, hold the position of Demon Envoy, managing the affairs of the Demon Clan for the Demon God."

The demon laughed heartily, then looked at me and said, "It is truly a great fortune to meet a member of my clan with the True Demon Bloodline again today."

"Stop with the nonsense and explain to me what the True Demon Bloodline is."

My current status seems quite noble, so of course I should continue to act arrogantly.

"Also, I want those two contracted pets. Name your terms." I

was too lazy to deal with the nonsense about the True Demon; pets were more practical. After all, contracted pets were level 50 reward pets, so their strength was self-evident. Having such powerful pets was always a good thing. Hurry up and make an offer; I'm in a hurry to level up. (Advertisement: Still relying on your hands? How can that be enjoyable?

"My lord, please don't be in a hurry. I will explain everything in detail."

Tuks slowly said, "The difference between true demons and ordinary demons lies in the fact that the demonic veins of ordinary demons are forcibly infused and nurtured by external demonic energy. The demonic energy we use now to cleanse the players' veins isn't created out of thin air; it's brewed from the demonic blood left behind by Lord Lyon in the Demon Realm. And Lord Lyon is a member of the great true demon race. The so-called true demon race consists of demons who possess innate demonic veins. They don't need the infusion of demonic energy; they are the most primitive and noble demon race. They are the origin of all demons."

Oh, oh, oh. So it's a matter of bloodline. I have royal blood; everyone else is an in-law, their bloodline impure.

"Sounds impressive, but what are the benefits?"

After all that rambling, I'm more concerned with my practical matters. Since he speaks so arrogantly, there should be some reward.

"My lord truly understands the essence of my race: selfish and self-serving, doing anything for profit,"

the demon laughed.

It felt like he was praising me, so I'll take it as a compliment.

"However, I'm sorry, but demons with the true demonic body not only receive no rewards, but will actually face more trials than ordinary demons."

The demon suddenly changed the subject.

"What the hell?!"

I immediately panicked. So, not only did I get nothing, but I also had to undergo more trials than ordinary players?

"My lord, please don't rush, let me finish."

The demon immediately stopped me. "Actually, the so-called more trials are not because we want to make things difficult for you, but because our demon guild cannot offer any help to true demons." "

What do you mean?"

The demon's words made me frown and ask.

"As everyone knows, after becoming a demon, the trainer will teach you some demonic techniques. Unfortunately, these techniques are completely useless for true demons like you."

The demon said.

"Why?"

I remembered. After ordinary players change their class, they can learn some professional skills from the guild mentor. These skills are often very practical, forming the most fundamental skill tree for each player.

Even if players later comprehend any special skills they create themselves, they are usually built upon these basic skills. Therefore, these most basic skills are extremely important to players. After what he said, it turns out I don't even have a basic skill tree anymore.

"This is related to your True Demon bloodline. Every True Demon's bloodline is naturally unique, with no similarities whatsoever. Even the offspring of two True Demons differ from their parents. They simply cannot learn the techniques of other demon races. Only demons created by being infused with demonic energy by a higher-ranking True Demon, sharing the same lineage of demonic energy, can learn the skills of their infused one,"

the demon said. "Therefore, although the True Demon race has a purer innate demonic bloodline than ordinary demons, they cannot learn the skills of other demon races; everything must be discovered by themselves."

After hearing the demon's explanation, I couldn't help but fall into deep thought. I thought that activating my bloodline power and becoming some kind of True Demon was triggering a protagonist bug plot. Who knew it would be a curse rather than a blessing, leaving me without even a skill tree.

Why was I so greedy back then, eating that damn Fire Wolf Pill!

Wait, Bai Jie also took the Fire Wolf Pill I gave her; could she have activated her bloodline power too? I hope she won't blame me then.

"Since that's the case, I won't stay here any longer. You take care of those two contracted pets; I'm taking them with me."

There's no point in dwelling on it now; I should just focus on leveling up. As for skills, I'll see how they go. At least the skills I learned in the beginner village are quite useful. They're barely enough for now.

"That's simple. Those two contracted demons have already formed a soul contract with you, sir. Naturally, they're your pets."

The demon smiled faintly and said, "However, there are still some problems."

"What problems?"

I asked impatiently.

"The previous contracted masters of those two demons are dead. Their demonic souls are damaged, and their demonic bodies have deteriorated due to a lack of demonic energy. They can no longer be considered pets. Forming a contract with you, sir, will re-condense their demonic souls, but their damaged demonic bodies still need further repair."

The demon said.

"Damn, how long? Do I have to wait until I reach level 50 again?"

I said, immediately annoyed. " What's the point of waiting until level 50? I desperately need pets to help me in battle.

" "That's not necessary. The guild has a dedicated repair room that can rebuild their demonic bodies,"

the demon said. But before I could rejoice, it changed its tone, saying, "However, to repair their remains, a few things are still missing."

"What things?"

I asked. I inwardly groaned that trouble was brewing.

"To rebuild the dark elf's demonic body, you need a drop of Rose's Spider Queen's essence blood. The Rakshasa is a bit more troublesome; it requires the essence of a magma demon and the corpse of a demon emissary."

The demon's words stirred something within me. Looking through my quest log, I saw two new quests: "The Dark Elf's Redemption" and "Rakshasa's Rebirth." The quests required obtaining the three items the demon had mentioned.

However, based on the demon's description, all three items seemed quite special. Rose, revered as a deity by the dark elves, and the demon emissary seemed like very special beings. And the magma demon probably wasn't much better.

Because of my status as a True Demon, although the guild NPCs treated me with utmost respect, I had essentially embarked on a path drastically different from ordinary players. There were no skills to learn in the guild, and after completing two quests, I left.

Before leaving, the demon promised that since Blood Night and Ni were now my contracted pets, they wouldn't need to serve other players anymore. This put my mind at ease; I couldn't let others mess with my pets.

Leaving the guild, I immediately entered my personal space. I opened the encyclopedia and leveling guide, reading them carefully. I needed to plan my future path.

The encyclopedia did mention players who unlocked special abilities early, but not in detail. It seemed the author was an ordinary player, and therefore only vaguely described what they'd heard.

It only described the experiences of two players who unlocked special abilities early. One was a mage, a master of earth and water magic, who created two forbidden spells—Medusa's Light and Frozen Hell. Ordinary petrification magic, while a high-level ultimate skill, is a single-target attack and ineffective against ghosts and elemental monsters, with a success rate of only about 50%. However, his "Medusa's Light" is a group petrification spell that ignores all enemy characteristics, boasting an 80% success rate. As for Frozen Hell, it's a domain skill that, once activated, reduces the movement and attack speed of all enemy targets by 50%, randomly freezes them for 5 seconds, and increases his own water-attribute magic attack power by 200%. It's practically a forbidden spell among forbidden spells.

The other is an archer. Although he also activates natural power, his skills aren't particularly outstanding.

However, his archery skills are unparalleled; his arrows are like Li Xunhuan's throwing knives, striking silently and capable of a fatal blow. It's said that he later captured a Sagittarius from the twelve constellations as a pet, and also took Athena, the goddess of war, into his possession, before finally disappearing without a trace. (What the hell is going on here?

Both of them were legendary figures, and their final fate remains unknown. Some say they were summoned by a demon god and made generals; others say they grew tired of the killing in the game and retired to the mountains; still others say they tragically perished in a battle.)

In short, these are all rumors, but they cannot erase their legends.

Of course, this doesn't mean that players who unlock special abilities are exceptionally gifted. In the Legendary section of the Chronicles, the legends of ordinary players far outnumber those of these special individuals. Ranking first is a knight named Hussein, who was initially unknown but later rose to prominence. His legend lies in his swordsmanship, which has reached a state of effortless mastery. He also created his own sword formation technique, somewhat similar to the sword immortals of the Immortal Realm. However, while sword immortals require the combined efforts of many to set up their formations, he could create an entire sword formation single-handedly. His ultimate skill, "One Sword Supporting the Sky," though slow, possesses an overwhelming force, leaving no room for evasion and only allowing the attacker to await their demise.

Looking at these legendary figures, I always feel a sense of déjà vu. It's like in infinite flow novels, where the A-grade, S-grade, and SS-grade bloodlines, skills, and weapons initially obtained through the system are incredibly powerful, but in the end, they all become worthless, far inferior to the self-created skills that players learn from C-grade and D-grade characters.

Sigh, it seems that activating special abilities on your own doesn't offer any real advantage; everything still depends on your own efforts. In that sense, the system still provides a fair opportunity.

As for the items needed for those two quests, although they're dropped by special monsters, they're not actually difficult to find. Because aside from some well-known big bosses, ordinary monsters and bosses appear in multiple locations at different levels. For example, Spider Queen Rose, while a boss, doesn't only appear from one location, and her level and strength vary. The difference lies in the map, or dungeon, she's in.

While there are monsters in the wild of Eden, they're generally quite ordinary; even the mutated or elf-like monsters are very rare. Those magical and powerful monsters and bosses exist within dungeons. This is mainly to prevent large groups of players from constantly ganging up on bosses to farm monsters and capture pets.

And these dungeons are actually branch worlds. While the number of players entering a world is unlimited, finding the boss there requires following the quest routes within. For example, in the simplest Heroic Dungeon, to find the Demon King of that world, you must follow the questline of "Defeat the Bandits" – "Find the Water Source" – "Kingdom Crisis" – "Shadows of Demons" – "The Princess is Captured" – "Defeat the Demon King."

Only then can you enter the Demon King's castle and defeat him. Wanting to collect the Demon King as a pet is even more troublesome.

You can only kill him once per questline, and if he dies, he resurrects after a period of time, ranging from a day to a year. The chance of the Demon King feigning death is less than 5%. Completing one questline takes about half a month, so unless you really want such a pet, few players have the patience to repeatedly grind a dungeon. You can gang up on the Demon King, but who gets the pet if he feigns death? Therefore, players usually form teams of five or six, pre-assigning who will collect the pet before setting out.

There are five dungeons where the Spider Queen Rose appears, ranging from level 30 to 150. The difference lies in the fact that in the level 30 dungeon, the Spider Queen of Rose rules over a tribe of 1,000 Dark Elves, with only about 100 Dark Elf monsters at level 25. In the level 150 dungeon, not only are the monsters much higher level, but the Spider Queen also rules over a tribe of 1 million people. She has even formed alliances with other races, meaning players will face attacks from the air, ground, and underground. The difficulty is naturally much higher. Magma

Demons and Demon Messengers don't necessarily have to be obtained from dungeons; level 25 Magma Demons can be found in volcanic terrain maps, but in very small numbers. Level 30 Demon Messengers can also be found in demon-type monster areas, but they are elite mini-bosses. While

grinding in the open world is generally for leveling up, if you want to farm equipment and pets, you'll definitely go to dungeons, as dungeon monsters are of much higher quality and have a higher chance of feigning death.

The Spider Queen of Rose dungeon requires at least a level 30 player team to complete. This is a bit of a problem for me. I'm the only one in the Demon Realm this time, and the lowest-level players there are at least level 40. It'll be hard to find someone to team up with.

I'd like to try my luck with the Demon and the Demon Messenger monsters. However, I need to strengthen my pet, and that whole bottle of Ghoul Blood is crucial. Unfortunately, I still don't have the money! Although I've had some interaction with him, he hasn't given me such a valuable item for free. Luckily, I have a basic idea of how to make money.

Leaving the space, I found the quest guild in the main city. Besides the system-issued quests, there are other functions here. One is the player-generated quest posting function. After submitting the bounty, the system posts it for other players to complete and earn the reward. Players usually offer bounties for items, pets, etc. Another function is the auction system. The pets and items auctioned here are mostly of medium quality or secondhand. Players usually keep high-level, rare pets for themselves, or they'll keep them to trade with other players. Low-level, unwanted pets are simply dumped in the item shop. Only the mediocre pets, which are neither high nor low quality, are sold here because players are too lazy to set up stalls.

The auction house has advantages: confidentiality and time-saving. Players don't need to expose their personal information or spend time setting up stalls. Therefore, the guild's auction function has become the most profitable tool in my eyes.

It's late at night, and the guild is deserted. I quickly listed twenty stamina recovery potions on the auction house and turned to leave.

The minimum auction time is 12 hours, and the final results won't be available until noon tomorrow. Waiting is pointless. I returned to my own space, summoned Mimi, and, cuddling the voluptuous girl, drifted off to sleep.

The next day, I was finally not woken by the arguing. Opening my eyes, I saw Mimi gazing at me tenderly with her large, expressive eyes, full of affection.

Looking at this adorable little thing, I felt a surge of playful energy. After teasing her for a while, I finally managed to milk her once, and half an hour passed in the blink of an eye. After she

finished drinking the milk, I put away the girl, whose face was already flushed with embarrassment, and prepared to go to the auction house to check things out.

Actually, I didn't have high hopes for the auction results. After all, the stamina potion was only of low quality and was a supplementary drug, not as practical as the red or blue bottles. I really didn't know if anyone would want it.

However, a red letter icon in the corner of my eye caught my attention. Opening the letters, I found five or six in total, with very simple contents:

"Do you still want that bottle of blood?"

"Did you receive it?"

"Are you there?"

"I'm at the usual place."

"Are you free?"

"Are you a pharmacist?"

Without exception, all the letters were sent by Hu Han. The letters grew increasingly urgent, until finally the sender couldn't help but voice their question. At the same time, it exploded in my mind like a bomb.

Had my identity been exposed? Impossible! I was confident I hadn't given anything away; how did they guess? However, judging from their tone, they weren't entirely certain.

So, the problem must lie with the auction house. Thinking this, I forgot about replying to the hastily written letters and rushed towards the quest guild.

But as soon as I arrived, I was blocked. Hundreds of players, all well-equipped, were packed around the guild entrance, three layers deep. Some had even summoned their pets, completely blocking the entrance.

"Let us in!"

"Hell Team is doing business; get out if you don't want to die!"

"Why can you bid, but we can't!" "

Exactly! Low-level potions are useless to you; you're even stealing this little bit!"

"Take another step closer, and if we meet again, don't blame us for being ruthless!"

"Damn it, who's afraid of who!"

The players outside the guild seemed to be in a standoff with the players inside, arguing incessantly.

"Brother, what's going on?"

I asked softly to a player next to me who seemed to be watching the commotion.

"Damn it, someone discovered this morning that a set of low-level constitution recovery potions was being auctioned here. By the time everyone got the news and came to bid, those bastards inside had already blocked the guild. They wouldn't let us in, it's really fucking ridiculous. Not only do we have to give way when we meet outside, but they're so arrogant even in the main city."

The player dressed as a warrior was too busy being indignant to turn his head and said, staring at the guild without looking back.

It seemed to be a fight between high-level and low-level players. Although there was arguing between the two sides, there was no real conflict. In Eden, strength is paramount. For their own interests, players can do anything, let alone block a small door. However, at the same time, each side also had their own concerns. Although the low-level players were shouting loudly, none of them wanted to provoke those formidable figures. The high-level players, though powerful, also didn't want to incur the wrath of the masses.

Unnecessarily making too many enemies was unwise. After all, no one could predict whether some legendary figures might emerge from among these low-level players in the future. Therefore, the argument was merely verbal, not escalating into a full-blown fight.

The commotion quickly subsided, and several flashes of white light appeared at the guild entrance as the players blocking the way outside immediately surged into the guild. It seemed the high-level players had all teleported away.

"Damn it, a few bottles of potions are being sold at such high prices, do you have too much money to burn?"

"Damn it, these bastards!"

"Go to hell, these bitches, they're making things difficult for us!"

A moment later, the players who had rushed in came out cursing, and the crowd slowly dispersed. Once most of the people had left, I pretended to be timid and went inside.

I quickly found my set of potions in the auction system, and a crazy number appeared before my eyes—200 gold!

My blood rushed to my head, a feeling of euphoria making my blood boil. I never imagined that a set of basic stamina recovery potions could sell for such a high price. I was both excited and horrified.

Cold sweat dripped down my back; my initial decision to conceal my identity was undoubtedly the wisest. If I had rashly gone to the square to sell them, I didn't know what the consequences would have been. Perhaps I would have been targeted the moment I left the main city, and the consequences afterward would have been even more unimaginable. Maybe I would have been forced to make potions, or perhaps I would have been kept like livestock by some team. That was definitely not the outcome I wanted.

After glancing at the auction results, I immediately feigned regret and went to the quest posting system, shaking my head repeatedly as if I was discouraged by not having enough money to buy the set of potions. Just then, I overheard a group of players talking nearby.

"I heard those bastards have already inquired. This batch of potions wasn't made by those masters."

"What? What idiot would auction off such valuable potions?"

"It shouldn't be an ordinary person auctioning them. No matter how poor they are, they wouldn't sell potions."

"That's true. Even if they did, they wouldn't sell 10 bottles at once. They might offer one or two at most."

"So, they're guessing that another alchemist has appeared in our Demon Realm."

"Damn! An alchemist? Really?"

"That's just speculation. We haven't heard of any new people being teleported here recently. So, they're inquiring."

Hearing this, my whole body went weak, and I couldn't hear anything more.

My identity was exposed? What do I do? What do I do? I tried my best to control myself, but the question wouldn't leave my mind.

Calm down! Now is not the time to panic. I tried my best to stop my trembling body, left the quest guild, turned a corner, and quickly entered my own space.

As soon as I entered my space, I hugged myself, sat down on the ground, and began to tremble violently. My identity has been exposed, and I'm likely facing being kept as a pet. Fear, panic, and terror surged through me, leaving my mind in chaos.

Thankfully, after the initial shock, I forced myself to calm down. I carefully reviewed everything I'd done since arriving in the Demon Realm.

When I left the space, I lingered in the plaza for a while, then went to the Demon Clan Guild, and later to the Quest Guild, but no one saw me selling potions then. That means the people in the plaza were the only players who had seen me. Only they could tell me anything about me.

And among them, Hulun was the most crucial figure; only he truly knew my newbie status. The others had noticed something, but nothing in detail.

What to do now? Kill him? That's ridiculous; he's already level 50 and graduated. I'm just a level 10 newbie—it's suicide. Ask him to keep it a secret? What's our relationship? Why should he take that risk for me? Besides, I'm sure if he'd sell my information, he'd get a hefty reward.

Right, his letter! I immediately recalled the several letters he had sent me. I reopened them and read them again. The letters were very simple, but I could deduce his current thoughts from them.

He had clearly suspected me and just wanted to confirm it further. Judging from the tone of the letters, he hadn't revealed my identity yet, and his attitude seemed quite sincere. That meant he wanted to befriend me and didn't want to ruin our relationship.

Thinking of this, I breathed a sigh of relief. An opportunity was before me; it was up to me to seize it.

After calming down for a while and organizing my thoughts, I opened my email system and sent him a text message.

"Sorry. Just woke up. Where are you now? I need that vial of blood right now."

The message was sent and I received a reply immediately. It seemed he had been waiting for my reply as well.

"Okay, I'll wait for you at Billy's house in East City."

Seeing his reply, I couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. I replied with "Coming soon" and left the space.

At the same time, I was basically certain that he had guessed my identity as a pharmacist. Because the meeting place he chose was very clever.

The NPCs living in the East City are mostly ordinary people who can give out a few dungeon quests. Billy is one of them. The quest Billy gives out is very troublesome, and most players won't waste their time on it, so few people go to him. It's a good place for secret meetings.

Using the map, I quickly found Billy's house. Upon entering, I saw a strong, burly man pacing back and forth in the house, looking very anxious. He was the owner of the house—Billy. Ignoring him, I went straight upstairs, where, sure enough, Hulun was already waiting.

"Give me your Return Stone."

Upon seeing me, Hulun reached out to me without saying a word, demanding it.

Slightly taken aback, I immediately relaxed and handed him the Return Stone. Without hesitation, he crushed the stone and entered my space. I immediately teleported back as well.

"I really miss this dilapidated house."

After I followed him into my space, he was already looking at my run-down hut and sighing.

"It's good enough to have a place to stay,"

I replied casually, watching his retreating figure.

"Things will get better once it rises. Everyone goes through this,"

he said, turning back to me with a smile.

"Upgrading is too expensive, I don't have that kind of money!" I said with a wry

smile.

"Didn't you already sell a lot of junk? How can you still say you don't have money?"

The other person gave me a meaningful look and said.

"I don't even know if that's enough to buy your stuff."

I still pretended to be stupid.

"Here you go. My stuff doesn't cost 200 gold."

He casually pulled the bottle of ghoul blood from his bag and threw it to me.

"Sigh! I didn't expect to cause such a commotion."

I sighed as I took the blood bottle. Since the other person had been so frank, I didn't beat around the bush anymore.

"The birth of every apothecary leads to the rapid rise of a group of people, making them powerful beings. Teams with apothecaries are the most terrifying teams in the Three Realms. How can this not drive me crazy?"

The other person stared at me and said.

"Oh? Aren't there other apothecaries? Don't they make potions and auction them off to everyone?"

I was slightly taken aback and asked, puzzled.

"If you can kill level 100 monsters, would you still be willing to go back to killing level 10 mobs?"

Hulun smiled faintly and asked in return.

"Of course not. It's not like I have nothing better to do than eat."

I said directly.

"Similarly, which advanced apothecary would want to concoct those basic potions?"

Hulun laughed.

"But what does it matter?"

I still didn't understand.

"Those high-level potions have all been snapped up by advanced players. We mid-level players can't afford them. Even if we wanted to, we couldn't afford them. But new alchemists are different. They create large quantities of basic potions to improve their skills, and if they can't use them themselves, they'll sell them off. Basic potions aren't very effective for advanced players, but they're incredibly valuable to us."

Hulun sighed deeply and said, "Sometimes, it's just a tiny bit of health or mana that's needed to kill a monster, but because of that lack of health or mana, we end up dying at its hands." "

The reason why a new alchemist represents the rise of a group is because a new alchemist can help those around them through their dangerous growth period, providing them with the guarantee of leveling up and killing monsters,"

Hulun concluded.

"If that's the case, why are those high-level players still so desperate to find me? Aren't there already high-level apothecaries making potions for them?"

"Players are never satisfied with potions. Even a potion that only restores a few dozen points of health, if you drink ten bottles, that's several hundred points of health. In 'Eden,' potions have no cooldown."

He said meaningfully.

I finally understood. The lack of cooldown on potions was the biggest bug. As long as you have potions, you're invincible; I've already proven this in the newbie village. I wouldn't have survived two bouts of Bloodlust without a massive amount of potions.

Some rare pets have healing skills, but their mana is limited, and their cooldowns are restricted; they might not be able to help in crucial moments. Potions, however, take all these into consideration. Sprinkle one on an external wound, or drink one bottle on an internal wound, and you're back to full health and full health.

For new players, a single basic potion can restore a significant amount of health, but for advanced players, it's far from enough. This is a matter of resource allocation. The same 10 bottles of basic recovery potions are distributed among new players, but only one is enough for an advanced player. This is why there's competition between the old and new generations.

Similarly, if a novice alchemist can be recruited into one's team, they will eventually grow into an advanced alchemist, creating more powerful and supportive recovery potions. Naturally, it's necessary to act early, keeping them under control and turning them into one's own supply depot. Otherwise, it will be too late once the alchemist has sufficient strength or joins another team.

"What happened to the other alchemists?"

I immediately asked.

"You had four alchemists before. Although one became the captain of the Heavenly Demon Team, the others didn't fare so well. One alchemist was even imprisoned by the Phosphorous Fire Team and couldn't even return to his own space. The potions he made were divided up by the team members; he had no freedom at all,"

he said hastily.

Although there might be a hint of threat in his words. But it couldn't be fiction, which sent chills down my spine again, leaving me terrified. Living like

that would be worse than death. I couldn't help but rack my brains, trying to figure out how to face the crisis before me. I never expected that a simple medicine-making technique would cause such a sensation; it was completely unexpected.

"Tell me, what should I do now?"

I suddenly looked up at him and said.

"Great! I knew you were an interesting guy."

Hulun laughed heartily, making no attempt to hide his excitement. "You may be a bit reckless, but at least you're not stupid. Talking to someone like you is really comfortable."

"Stop talking nonsense, I'm annoyed right now."

I ignored his teasing and said.

"Fortunately, not many people noticed you in the square yesterday. I've contacted those people, and now I'm just waiting for your reply."

Hulun's face darkened as he said.

"How many potions do you need me to provide?"

I asked in a muffled voice.

"Heh, looks like you've got the wrong idea."

Hulun shook his head and said.

"You're getting the wrong idea. Don't you need potions?"

This only made me more confused.

"Of course we need potions

," he said hastily. "We just asked you to join our team."

"Huh? A team? What team?"

I asked.

"The Starfire Team. It was just formed four hours ago,"

he chuckled. "A knight, a water mage, a vampire, and me, a hunter. Now we just need a support class. Interested in joining?"

After a long pause, I finally let out a long sigh of relief and sincerely said to him, "Thank you."

Did I need to say anything more? He had already considered everything for me. Not only did he not reveal my identity, but he also didn't threaten me into making potions for them. Instead, he actively gathered players to help me level up. His sincerity had deeply moved me.

"Don't mention it. It's thanks to you that we were reminded to form our own team. Of course, besides my team, there are four other teams; you can join them if you're interested."

He patted my shoulder roughly and laughed after getting my answer.

"No need. I'll go with the Starfire team,"

I replied. These four classes are all highly sought after.

A knight who can attack and defend, an undead with high health and lifesteal, a water mage with crowd control skills, and a support hunter. This team is already very well-established; whether I'm there or not doesn't really matter. They've already made this arrangement to accommodate me, so of course I wouldn't be ungrateful.

"Okay. Let's go meet the others. Let's all get to know each other."

Hulun said, handing me a Return Stone.

"Okay."

I took the Return Stone and nodded.

Crushing the Return Stone, I immediately appeared in an open space. The open space covered an area of about four or five hundred square meters. In front of me was a huge ancient tree with doors and windows, presumably a treehouse. There were several small buildings around, but I couldn't see them clearly because more than ten players were standing in the open space, blocking my view.

Seeing someone enter, everyone immediately looked at me. Their expressions ranged from curiosity and doubt to silence.

"Come on, let's welcome our great alchemist—Bai Yu!"

Seeing me follow him into his space, Hulun immediately stood in front of me and announced loudly.

Boom! This announcement was like a thunderclap in the crowd. The few who were initially puzzled showed excitement, and even the silent ones had a slight twitch at the corner of their mouths. Everyone showed surprise and delight.

"It really is this kid."

A man dressed as a berserker walked over first and patted my shoulder.

"Really? Is it true? It's true! Hahaha!"

A hero wielding a large shield was so excited he was incoherent.

"Hello, I'm Qi Sui."

A slender archer shook my hand vigorously.

"Little Qi, I'm not your buddy. Bai Yu, right? Interested in joining my team? We're full of beauties."

A valiant female warrior walked over, pushed past the archer, and smiled at me.

"Xing Yan, using a beauty trap is a bit unethical. Besides, we're short one person, come join our team."

A male mage carrying a black magic wand stepped forward and said to me.

"Huh, boss, aren't we already full? Why are we short?"

Archer Qi Sui immediately asked, puzzled.

"Nonsense, with just three mages and one hero, of course we need a support."

The male mage immediately said.

"Hey! Hey! Boss, what about me?"

Qi Sui was clearly a member of the mage's team, but he had unknowingly been kicked out by the mage, and immediately shouted.

"We haven't accepted you, this ungraduated guy, as one of our team members yet."

The male mage said in a matter-of-fact manner.

"No! Boss, I'm already 49. I'll graduate soon. Then I'll become a hunter and cook for you guys."

Qi Sui immediately hugged the mage's leg and cried.

"Tch, if I need someone to cook, I'll ask Hu Lun."

The mage said disdainfully.

"Alright, stop arguing. Bai Yu has already agreed to join our Starfire. You guys stop arguing."

In the end, Hu Lun interrupted everyone's quarrel and announced.

"Tch, I knew it wouldn't end well if I sent you to find someone."

The male mage said with a regretful look.

"It's okay, I've saved a spot for you here. Come find us whenever you get tired of those guys. Our Linlin doesn't have a boyfriend yet."

The female warrior hugged my neck and said ambiguously.

"Sister Xing!"

a clear voice called out immediately.

Looking in the direction of the voice, we saw a short girl dressed in emerald green, carrying a longbow covered in green leaves. She wore a green feathered hat, a silver choker around her fair neck, a green corset around her waist, a green miniskirt, and green leather boots, making her look like a sexy, erotic magical girl warrior.

Our eyes met, and the girl blushed crimson, hiding behind a female mage, too ashamed to come out.

"Haha, not bad, Linlin. The task of stealing Bai Yu is yours. If you succeed, you'll get three chances to choose a pet,"

the female warrior said with a grin, noticing our expressions. This made the girl named Linlin even more embarrassed, wishing she could disappear into the ground. But she still couldn't resist peeking out curiously, secretly observing me.

"Thank you, thank you everyone for your trouble."

I bowed deeply to everyone and said.

"No need to thank us, we'll all be counting on you from now on."

The Berserker patted my shoulder and said cheerfully.

"Yeah, don't forget about our Linlin. Without your healing potion, it would be terrible if she got into danger."

The female warrior Xingyan teased me as she spoke.

"Alright, let me introduce you first."

Hulun came to my rescue again.

Hulun introduced the teams one by one. There were five teams in total, named Xinghuo, Xingyun, Xingchen, Xingxue, and Xingtong. The character Xing means "new." It signifies the rise of a group of new players. At the same time, Xinghuo also means "spark," hoping that through our five teams, we can inspire more new players to rise.

Starfire is my team. Besides Hulun, there's a very capable and steady knight—Iron; a carefree undead—Fang; and a thin, taciturn mage—Ice Soul.

Nebula's captain is a warrior—Qianjun, and the members are a spirit race member—Shenmu; a fire mage—Huoyun; a lightning mage—Xuanxiao; and a longbowman—Yunque. However, the whole team seems rather quiet, so their side is a bit deserted. But when I looked over, everyone nodded to me.

Stardust is the team of the male mage I chatted with earlier—Os. He's an ice mage, and there's another ice mage, an earth mage, a knight, and finally, the sullen-faced man, Qisui.

Starblood is a pure melee team, led by the berserker—Kuangyun. There's also a berserker named Feihu, a warrior named Kidd, a wolf orc named Iris, and an assassin named Xiaodao.

Xing Tong was naturally part of the female warrior Xing Yan's team. Besides the little sister Lin Lin from the Spirit Clan, there was also a ground mage—Xu Yan, and a knight—Yu Li.

"By the way, you should have already changed your class, right? What class did you choose?"

After introducing everyone, Hu Lun turned back to me and asked.

"It's a demon."

I replied.

"A demon? Why did you choose this class?"

Xing Yan was slightly taken aback, but a strange light flashed in her eyes.

The expressions of the others also changed noticeably, some were somber, some were surprised, and some were disgusted. In short, the friendly atmosphere from before was gone.

"What? What's wrong with demons?"

Fang, one of my teammates, immediately walked over with a grin, glanced at Xing Yan, and said, "If you don't understand anything in the future, just ask me."

"Being a demon isn't a problem, but what are you planning to change to later?"

Hu Lun's expression was also somewhat somber as he looked at me and asked.

No wonder everyone had that expression. After joining the Demon race, I gained a more systematic understanding of my class. The Demon race is relatively balanced in terms of classes, but it severely tests one's character. This is because, in everyone's subconscious, the Demon race is inherently evil. Some of their skills are extremely insidious, and Demon players who cannot maintain their clarity of mind often become incredibly treacherous and cruel.

There was once an incident where a Demon player massacred his entire team. Therefore, everyone is wary of Demon players. It

seems that if this misunderstanding isn't cleared up, it will inevitably create a distance between us. I couldn't help but smile wryly and said, "Actually, this wasn't my intention."

I paused and said, "Back in the starting village, I crafted a pill, and who knew that after swallowing it, it would unlock my bloodline power. Only after arriving here did I realize that I could only become a Demon."

"I see."

Everyone suddenly understood.

"Wow! I didn't realize you had such incredible luck. Not only did you learn medicine-making, but you were also the first to awaken your bloodline power!"

He laughed heartily, pounding my chest. These graduated players naturally understood the concept of automatically activating special abilities, weighing the pros and cons, and weren't particularly envious.

"So it wasn't your intention. You just need to control your temper in the future,"

Xingyan said, her brows slightly relaxed, but still offering me advice.

"I will,"

I nodded to the female warrior. It seems the demon race is indeed disliked.

"Damn, if you activated your bloodline power early, wouldn't it double when you changed jobs? So what's your current bloodline power?"

Fang suddenly realized this and immediately asked with envy.

"108,"

I replied.

"Wow, you didn't add all your points to your bloodline, did you? How did you allocate your points?"

Fang exclaimed in surprise.

"I went for an attack/agility build, not much in constitution. But I allocated the points in the later levels to bloodline,"

I explained simply.

"Attack/agility? That kind of point allocation doesn't seem suitable for demons. Constitution is very important for demons, you've allocated too little,"

Fang frowned. But that expression made me realize they were genuinely concerned about me. They were

using their own experience to explain the class characteristics of "Eden."

"There's nothing I can do, I originally considered becoming a warrior, but unfortunately, I became a demon by mistake. I can only adjust gradually from now on,"

I could only say with a troubled expression. Among the two major talents of demons, constitution provides a bonus to both attack and physical strength, so my point allocation was obviously off-target, but I didn't regret it. The high agility build during the newbie village really taught me a lot of combat skills.

"Hmm, agility is still necessary. A 10-level deviation isn't too serious,"

Xingyan finally truly understood my decision to become a demon and nodded.

"Actually, this stat allocation path isn't necessarily unsuitable for demons,"

another demon orc, Iris, said, walking over. "If you later become an orc, using an agility-type pet as a sacrifice will definitely grant you an agility bonus. His stat allocation might actually have unexpected benefits."

Everyone looked at him and immediately nodded in agreement. An orc's second job advancement depends entirely on the pet used for the sacrifice. If I could use a pet with an agility bonus, my stat allocation wouldn't be so crippled.

But such players are extremely rare. Agility is practically useless for demons in the early game. Insisting on an attack/agility build would leave an attack/agility demon practically crippled before the second job advancement, a self-inflicted wound, extremely dangerous. Later, constitution still provides a bonus for demons. Therefore, this stat allocation is too unconventional, and few would choose it.

"But where does this orc fit in?"

Os suddenly asked, as if struck by a thought. Everyone immediately fell silent again.

The so-called "role" refers to the role of each player within a team. For example, Knights and Undead are the best tanks, responsible for drawing monster fire and preventing them from attacking other low-health, low-defense teammates, allowing them to unleash their full damage potential. Berserkers and Rogues are important melee DPS, while Mages and Archers are ranged attackers. Warriors, Hunters, and Demons are support roles.

If you switch to an agile Orc, they won't have ranged attacks or support skills, and their melee DPS isn't as high as Warriors or Rogues. Wouldn't they become truly useless? You can't really treat me as a mobile pharmacy and completely ignore my combat capabilities.

"Alright, it's still too early for the second job advancement. Let's think about how to arrange things for him now."

Hulun interrupted everyone's discussion about my skill point allocation route and said, "Xingyan, what news do you have?"

When Hulun asked, the female warrior immediately became serious and said, "There are people checking everywhere in the city, and several newbie quest NPCs have also been monitored. It's very troublesome, and Baiyu can't show his face at all. "

"What about Kuangyun?" "

Someone was asking around in the tavern just now. They mainly asked if any new players have come recently."

"Aus?"

"There are also checkpoints at several city exits. Every player leaving the city will be checked by them."

"Qianjun?"

"Those teams have secretly offered bounties. As long as you have information, you can join their team and get two blue-quality medium-intelligence pets."

"These bastards are really ruthless."

After listening to everyone's report, Hulun said through gritted teeth.

I was once again moved by everything they had done, even though they had their own selfish motives. But it was really not easy to resist those temptations. As an apothecary, I haven't been able to provide them with a single potion so far.

Even worse, if their actions are exposed now, they'll definitely attract the pursuit of those high-level players.

"Bai Yu, what are your plans? To be on the safe side, I suggest you stay in the city for a while. It'll be safer to show your face after this storm has passed,"

Hu Lun asked, turning back to me.

"No, staying in the city... I don't know how long I'll have to wait. Dragging it out too long isn't good for me either,"

I said after thinking for a moment. In *Eden*, strength reigns supreme; only by becoming stronger as quickly as possible can we escape our current predicament.

"In that case, I'll arrange it. I'll sell some potions later, making them think our team is newly formed and lacks funds, hence the potion dumping,"

Hu Lun immediately devised, seeing that I had made up my mind.

"There's no need for that, it would put you in danger too. They'd definitely become suspicious."

I smiled gratefully at him and said, "Does anyone here know how to teleport directly to the wilderness?"

"I left coordinates in the Lilith instance. I can teleport there directly,"

Xingyan said immediately, though she didn't understand what I meant.

"I also have coordinates outside."

"Me too,"

the other three or four people replied.

"What's your plan?"

Hulun asked curiously.

"Well, I have a pet here that might be able to get me out of the city."

I smiled faintly and said, "This pet has a buffed form and a shapeshifting skill. I want to use it to transform into one of you. This person will teleport out first, and then I'll use that person's appearance to leave the city and meet up with you outside. That way, they shouldn't be able to find me." "

Damn, you're amazing. You even managed to catch such a top-tier pet in the newbie village. Tell me, are you some idiot protagonist from some light novel who came here to mess with us mortals?"

Fang immediately grabbed my neck and shook it violently with envy and jealousy.

"This method will work."

Hulun pondered for a moment, and then a surprised smile appeared on his face.

"However, we'll still need to return to the city."

I broke free from Fang's clutches and said.

"Returning to the city via teleportation is safer. It can also avoid their surveillance. You need to upgrade the Return Stone as soon as possible."

Hulun nodded.

"So, you don't mind me taking a bite out of your pockets now, do you?"

I smiled slightly.

"No problem, everyone chip in a little, let Bai Yu upgrade the Return Stone first."

Kuang Yun immediately shouted, taking out more than 100 gold coins from his pocket and handing them to me.

"I've received so much kindness from you all. I can't just take your money for nothing. I refined quite a few in the newbie village. Keeping so many is a waste. If you're interested, just name your price."

I said, taking out all the potions I had refined in the newbie village and laying them out on the ground, looking at everyone.

Immediately, everyone fell silent again, and no one made a move to buy them.

"What's wrong? Are they too cheap?"

I was slightly disappointed. I didn't understand what they meant. A few bottles of basic stamina recovery potions could sell for 200 gold coins, so there should be some they needed among these potions.

"You should keep them. After all, your level is too low, these potions are more useful to you."

He swallowed hard, seemingly suppressing something as he spoke. There were also flames of fervor in everyone's eyes, but they were also suppressing some kind of impulse.

These adorable fellows' concern for me truly moved me to tears. My eyes welled up slightly, and I smiled reassuringly, saying, "There are plenty of potions in the growth kit; I've kept them all. Besides, you can find herbs everywhere in the wild, and monsters can drop them too. Making medicine is very easy. You don't need to worry about me."

"Damn it! Why didn't you say so sooner? These recovery potions are all mine! I want them! 500 gold!"

Fang, the closest to me, immediately pounced, yelling.

"Damn, you want that much? Are you looking to die?"

Kuangyun also immediately pounced. The scene instantly descended into chaos.

"Stop fighting! Leave some for me!"

"Damn it, what are you, a mage, going to do with poison?"

"Then why are you, a knight, grabbing berserk potions?

" "Leave some constitution potions for me!"

"Spit those recovery potions out! Don't keep them in your mouth, I don't want to drink your saliva!"

"Mages, move aside! There's nothing for you here!"

With this scrambling, the distribution was obviously unbalanced. After the initial excitement wore off, everyone calmed down and began to distribute the potions seriously.

Actually, the types of potions brewed in the starting village weren't many. Most were melee support potions. Health recovery potions and constitution potions, due to their limited quantity, were concentrated on the knights, undead, and warriors—classes that needed to draw fire; strength and attack potions were given to melee damage dealers; agility potions naturally went to the archers and the only assassin. Poison was monopolized by the assassin's dagger; and stamina recovery potions were given to the mages. Although there were no magic recovery potions needed by mages, they could convert their physical strength into mana through meditation, which could make up for some of the deficiency.

After distributing the potions, Hulun handed me a bag of gold coins, containing more than 1,300 gold coins. Perhaps part of this was due to their consideration for me, but it still proved the scarcity of potions in "Eden". Even such basic potions could cause a buying frenzy, let alone the advanced ones.

"Alright. The potions have been distributed. Let's arrange the departure from the city."

As the initiator and organizer, Hulun said finally, "Baiyu, you go back to your space to upgrade your return stone. Xingyan and Kuangyun's team will go out of the city first to see which exit is safe. Qianjun and Aos will stay in the city to gather information and provide support. If they encounter danger, help Baiyu escape immediately and let him return to his space. Gangtie, you teleport out first, and then I will bring Baiyu to meet you in the Distant Forest."

Everyone immediately agreed. After leaving Hulun's space, they went their separate ways.
