While everyone over at the farm was still frantically forming parties, Liu Xuan had already slipped away into the fields.
The fields were barren of crops, completely abandoned and overgrown with weeds. Several waist-high black wild dogs roamed among them, looking incredibly vicious.
Liu Xuan glanced at their stats:
Vicious Hound
Level: 1
Attack: 30
HP: 150
"These stats are a bit insane," Liu Xuan couldn't help but lick his lips.
High health was one thing; there were plenty of people on the battlefield, so they could always just gang up on them. The real problem was the high damage.
Liu Xuan considered himself to be in pretty good shape. He was young and energetic, yet the battlefield's body scan had only given him 80 HP.
Three bites from these monsters and he would be dead, probably owing the dog a chunk of health in the negative.
Many people who neglected exercise probably had even lower health. If they only had 50 or 60 HP, they would kick the bucket in just two bites.
Moreover, judging by its appearance, the Vicious Hound might be an agility-type monster.
"Let's hope its movement speed isn't as fast as mine."
Liu Xuan locked onto a lone Vicious Hound and slowly approached it.
When he was still three meters away, the hound suddenly turned its head and glared at him. Emitting a low growl from its throat, it lowered its front legs and lunged at him violently.
So fast!
Liu Xuan exclaimed in his heart and immediately dodged to the side.
Narrowly avoiding the pounce, he didn't dare to hesitate. He immediately bolted, with the Vicious Hound in hot pursuit.
Fortunately, Liu Xuan realized that aside from the initial charged pounce, the Vicious Hound's normal running speed wasn't as fast as his own.
"It probably has 8 or 9 Agility. Damn, this monster's stats are a bit too much!"
This was only a Level 1 monster, yet its stats completely overshadowed a normal human's.
Other than Liu Xuan, probably no one else could outrun it.
Only Liu Xuan, with his 11 Agility, could pull off this kind of stunt; anyone else would have been chewed to pieces by now.
After walking the Vicious Hound for a while, a system prompt suddenly popped up in front of Liu Xuan.
You have gained 2 EXP from your class ability.
It actually works!
Confirming that he could gain experience and level up by kiting monsters, Liu Xuan breathed a sigh of relief.
As long as he could level up, there was hope.
Plus, he felt that kiting the monster wasn't too stressful, as long as he avoided aggroing other nearby monsters.
In the past, when kiting monsters in video games, he had to deal damage while running. Now, he only needed to run.
After getting used to the rhythm of kiting, Liu Xuan became increasingly comfortable, and his eyes began to wander toward the other Vicious Hounds in the area.
"Should I... kite a few more?"
But before that, he had to test if the monsters would drop aggro and leash back.
Even though Liu Xuan was known as a mechanical god in gaming, he always analyzed carefully and executed boldly.
I dare to play like this because I know for a fact I can outplay you, not out of hotheadedness or a sudden whim.
That would just be brain-dead feeding!
So, Liu Xuan tried leading the Vicious Hound further away. He soon discovered that once it was about forty meters from its original spawn point, it would turn around and run back.
"Perfect!"
With the results in, Liu Xuan's courage immediately swelled.
Exactly. When you aren't sure, you play it safe. Conversely, once you have it figured out, it's time to go wild!
He turned and sprinted toward another nearby Vicious Hound. The creature initiated with the same pounce, but Liu Xuan, already prepared, dodged it effortlessly.
Then came the third, the fourth...
Whenever he felt he still had leeway, Liu Xuan would pull another nearby monster.
The experience points also jumped from the initial +2 to +4, +6...
A few minutes later, when the experience prompt reached +12, Liu Xuan finally stopped pulling. By then, he had exactly six Vicious Hounds trailing behind him.
No more!
Although he was faster than the Vicious Hounds, he couldn't just run blindly in a straight line.
He had to constantly keep track of each dog's aggro radius and kite them within the small overlapping area. Otherwise, if he went too far, some of the monsters would leash back.
Therefore, the space Liu Xuan had to kite these Vicious Hounds was actually quite small. It was truly like dancing on a tightrope.
You have gained 12 EXP from your class ability.
Congratulations, you have reached Level 2. You have gained 5 free attribute points.
You have a new skill available.
It only took 50 EXP to get from Level 1 to Level 2. Liu Xuan had farmed enough in less than ten minutes.
This leveling speed was simply too fast!
He couldn't help but feel excited. Others had to actually kill 25 monsters to level up, but he only needed to kite 6 monsters and repeatedly milk them for experience.
He suddenly felt that not having to attack was actually pretty fun.
What do you mean, I'm being chased by dogs?
Can grinding for EXP really be called getting chased by dogs?!
With a thought from Liu Xuan, a slot-machine-like device suddenly appeared in front of him, floating in mid-air. The text in its window spun rapidly.
The whole thing was nearly transparent, so it didn't interfere with his kiting.
Liu Xuan looked at the lever on the side of the machine and used his mind to yank it down hard.
The window spun faster for a few seconds before instantly stopping with a click.
A line of text appeared in the window:
Blood of the Giant: Your HP is multiplied by 1000%.
"Holy shit!"
Liu Xuan couldn't help but curse.
Ten times the health?
Was this passive really this simple and overpowered?
Just like that, his HP skyrocketed from 80 points to 800 points!
Perhaps he could play even more boldly now?
After all, taking a bite or two occasionally wouldn't be dangerous anymore.
Liu Xuan's eyes locked onto even more Vicious Hounds in the vicinity.
Should I go even bigger?
...
"Holy shit!"
Almost at the exact same time, an exclamation rang out from the direction of the farm.
It was Chen Yu, the guy who had called out to Liu Xuan earlier. He stared dumbfounded at Liu Xuan, who was currently being chased by a pack of dogs in the fields. His jaw practically dropped to the ground.
His newly formed party members noticed his expression. Following his gaze, they were equally shocked:
"Is that guy crazy? Pulling so many monsters?"
Chen Yu recounted his earlier encounter with Liu Xuan, leaving the group with faces full of question marks: "Even if he wants to commit suicide, he doesn't need to pull that many monsters, right?"
"If he wants to die, why is he running?"
"Probably got scared at the last second."
"Well, that guy is dead meat, being chased by so many monsters."
"Wait, how is he able to run for so long?" suddenly someone noticed something amiss.
Ever since they came out, Liu Xuan had been chased for quite a while, yet those Vicious Hounds hadn't even been able to touch him.
Chen Yu's eyes widened: "Didn't Zhang Meng just say that the Vicious Hound has over 8 Agility? That means this guy's Agility is at least 9 or higher? Could he be a professional athlete?"
"This guy is pretty good at kiting monsters," another person smacked his lips, then shook his head: "But just running fast is useless. He isn't attacking at all, so he won't be able to hold the monsters' aggro."
"And look, he doesn't even have a beginner's weapon in his hands. What kind of class is he playing anyway?"
It wasn't just them; many people who had finished forming their parties and come out of the farm saw Liu Xuan being chased around by the Vicious Hounds.
But no one dared to rescue him, or even get close, terrified of drawing the attention of that massive horde of monsters.
Zhang Meng had also come out with his team. Watching from a distance as Liu Xuan was chased around by the monsters, he was surprised to find that the fleeing figure's back looked somewhat familiar.
"Could it be that guy?"
He thought of a certain someone he had never been able to defeat.
But Zhang Meng quickly shook his head and let out a chuckle. "Impossible, absolutely impossible! I simply can't imagine that guy being chased all over the place by dogs."
He was probably just some track athlete who wasn't very good at video games.

ive and Ruthless] Before his transmigration, Ye Xuan was playing a game called "Severing Emotions to Attain the Dao." The game's core wasn't about leveling up by fighting monsters, but about conquering various "bad women" with wicked personalities and cold, fickle natures. There was only one method to conquer them: stay unwaveringly by their side, then die at a critical moment, driving them to madness after losing the protagonist. The higher their level of regret, the higher the player's score. To dominate the server, Ye Xuan conquered all the bad women. In the early stages, he showered them with boundless tenderness, only to choose to sacrifice himself for them later, making them weep bitterly and drown in regret. Among them were: Xia Lengyue, the unfaithful immortal wife who chased after powerful men and discarded her husband like trash. Ye Qingcheng, the Demonic Venerable of the Joyous Union Sect, who appeared pure and innocent but was, in reality, promiscuous. Wu Lingxiao, the Empress of the Great Xia Dynasty, who lusted after men and loved maintaining a harem. Bai Qiangu of the Endless Demonic Sect: a bloodthirsty mass murderer. However, when the protagonist transmigrated into the game world, he made a horrifying discovery. Eight hundred years had already passed. The bad women he had conquered had now each become deities and revered ancestors. Faced with the endless stream of toxic women coming for him, Ye Xuan could only rely on his god-tier acting skills to carve a path of survival through this world of treacherous women.
