Chapter 4: Talent Enhancement
For half an hour, Ethan continued his strategy. After delivering the final strike, he watched excitedly as the wounded Sea Turtle slowly approached death. As the last drop of blood vanished, the turtle's massive body finally collapsed reluctantly to the ground. A system notification sound followed.
"Ding, you have slain [Sea Turtle]. Gained 15 experience points. Killing a monster five levels above you grants an additional 7 experience points (round down if less than 1)."
"Ding, Talent Feature Activated: Poison damage increased by 1 point. Inflicts 2 true damage per second to the target."
"Sweet!" Hearing the system notification, Ethan exclaimed with excitement. He had gained 22 experience points in one go, which was much faster than collecting rabbits at the village entrance. The most important thing was his talent had upgraded, which was crucial. Now, killing Sea Turtles would take half the time.
He quickly approached the corpse of the Sea Turtle. To his surprise, two copper coins had dropped, along with a piece of equipment. Excited, Ethan hurriedly picked them up. Even though the drop rate increases by 50% when killing monsters five levels above, considering Oracle's pitifully low drop rates, getting an equipment drop from the first monster was undoubtedly a stroke of luck.
He examined the equipment and found it was a pair of shoes.
