"Don't always think of people as so bad, although I am not a good person either, I will not be stingy with what I should give. Accept it, the reward level for little Isabella!"
The so-called "reward level" is a special dungeon given to players as an additional way to level up by killing monsters.
In this fantasy world, there are monsters everywhere; Isabella just needs to defeat them to increase her level as a brave warrior and become stronger.
It is worth mentioning that the fictional monsters in this world are based on the concept of real-world creatures with bizarre appearances and magical abilities, including both wild and domesticated animals.
The monsters are generally divided into three levels. The "ferocious level" (equivalent to the strength of "hundreds of battles" or "thousands of slaughters" in human terms) is like a stray dog with rabies. They may attack people on their own, but it is not absolute that they will harm lives. Unless you provoke them or happen to be their dinner, ferocious-level monsters usually won't put people in mortal danger. Slimes and the monsters that once besieged Wang Yafu belong to this level.
The "killer level" (equivalent to the strength of "prowling" or "breaking the army" or "bewitching city") indicates that meeting them will generally result in one of two outcomes: either you kill them or they kill you. Compared to the previous level, where the monsters are nothing more than a joke, the fight between the two levels can be likened to an adult bullying a kindergartener. The specific representative is the "meaning-resolving flower" being kept in the prison. It does not attack people on its own because it has been tamed, but it is ruthless when dealing with escapees.
Lastly, there is the "terrifying level" (equivalent to the strength of "bewitching country" and supposedly there were even more powerful monsters thousands of years ago). These ominous creatures occasionally roam and usually hide in Fengshui treasure places. They generally do not bother other creatures; otherwise, it would easily lead to catastrophic consequences for the inhabitants. In several historical events where terrifying-level monsters appeared, none of them chose to quietly retreat. Each time they wreaked havoc and caused devastating impacts on civilization.
The content of the reward level is to let the inexperienced warrior compete against a large number of ferocious-level monsters. Due to Isabella's adventures only being in the early stages, her level growth has been extremely rapid. Even if she only defeated one ferocious-level slime before, she managed to go from level fifteen to sixteen.
The current level represents a threshold that marks a complete difference in leveling speed before and after. From now on, if Isabella wants to enhance her strength, she must go through a medium-scale battle. Wang Xiaole, taking into account her current situation, planned the upcoming fights.
Water rose from the ground and gathered into a pool, releasing over a hundred blue figures that jumped out, causing the air to be filled with water stains, sticky like glue. They carried harmless expressions, one after another showing in front of people. Hidden beneath their calm expressions was the determination to play pranks on the girl in front of them, causing her clothes to dissolve. Ultimately, it was Wang Xiaole's influence on their minds.
"What? Why are there still more? I clearly cut that slime into countless pieces. Why is the number increasing?"
"This question is easy to understand because they are all raised by me. Did the village chief ever say that he only raised one slime himself?"
Sometimes, Isabella wonders: Is the so-called "Demon King" just a puppet cultivated by the village chief? The real Demon King has always been in the same place, hidden in the village where the heroes are born from beginning to end.
The surrounding ground sinks, transforming the flat surface into a bumpy topography, and colorful water continuously sprays out from the cracks, turning the area into a marshy zone.
Standing in a safe area, the two have had the following argument:
"This is the trial given to little Isabella. By overcoming it, you will become stronger!"
"Hold on, did you just mention wanting to join the team of heroes? I now give you the qualification and allow you to become a companion."
"You agree? Great, Isabella finally accepts me on a psychological level.""Don't make any emotional remarks. Just go and do what you can, for example, take responsibility for attracting the attention of thirty of them, and buy me some time."
