He had just received a system prompt: “Cross-level monster kill, exceeded rank by 6, earned thirty silver coins.”

It was dropped by the demon wolf he killed on his own. Although cross-level kills have a higher drop rate, not every monster drops equipment. Thirty silver coins are only equivalent to a few hundred yuan in his original world.

Never forget your roots—back when he was William Carter, a few hundred yuan was no small sum.

After putting the money away, William Carter focused his attention on the female ranger.

Rangers are warriors with agility attributes, but at this moment, she was wearing a strength glove on her hand.

At low levels, whether strength-type or agility-type heroes, they all prefer strength attributes. One point of strength increases health by 19, which greatly improves a warrior’s survivability.

This also leads to strength-boosting equipment being shockingly expensive. For example, a one-star strength glove that adds one point of strength can easily sell for fifteen gold coins, while a pair of agility boots that adds one point of agility only costs five gold coins.

And a one-star mage cloak that adds one point of intelligence costs only one gold coin.

That’s because intelligence-type transfer warriors are extremely rare, and most of them only know one skill, or even none at all.

“Praise the Moon Goddess, young adventurer, thank you for saving me and my companion.” The female ranger crossed her hands over her chest and thanked William Carter again. Rangers are usually followers of the Moon Goddess, perhaps because most of them are elves.

“For the glory of the Sentinel, it was nothing, not worth mentioning.” William Carter replied with a dashing smile, imitating the tone of other transfer warriors, looking every bit the charlatan.

But his eyes habitually swept over all the equipment on the two transfer warriors before him.

He wanted to trade.

When transfer warriors meet, they often exchange equipment to suit their needs.

“Wow—big brother, are all these your pets?” The little girl who had been crying in fear earlier now bounced over to William Carter, her bright eyes fixed on William Carter’s Pleasant Goat.

She was still a bit afraid of Grey Wolf, hesitating and not daring to get close.

At this moment, Grey Wolf was lying on the ground with his eyes closed, basking in the sun, completely ignoring the three people in front of him. His laziness came from his pride.

“I suppose so…” William Carter didn’t want to reveal that he possessed the Holy Persuasion skill, fearing it might lead to unforeseen consequences. It’s better to keep a low profile.

Act humble in front of people, stab them in the back—this is William Carter’s consistent principle: appear weak to the enemy, strike when they least expect it.

Despicable? Yes, exactly.

Despicable—forced by circumstances. You can tell just from the pronunciation; despicable people are made by necessity.

Since he had to play humble, he might as well attribute these two pets to being summoned by a Holy Persuasion scroll.

“So cool!” The little girl jumped up excitedly. “Big brother, can I pet it?”

“Of course you can.” William Carter replied to the little girl in a gentlemanly and polite tone, just like a neighborly big brother, a true gentleman.

“Xiaoqing, don’t be willful. Stay put. This all happened because you were playing around…” The burly man seemed to be scolding the little girl, but there was no trace of harshness in his tone—on the contrary, it was rather gentle. Hearing such a tone from such a big guy was enough to give anyone goosebumps.

He pulled the little girl behind him and apologized to William Carter: “Children don’t know any better, sorry for the trouble.”

In fact, he and the female ranger were both very curious about how William Carter got his two pets. Logically, if he had used a Holy Persuasion scroll, the pets’ attributes should have been greatly weakened, but judging from the recent battle, these two pets were clearly very powerful.

If someone could make a 100% effective Holy Persuasion scroll, that would be beyond the ability of a transfer hero—could he be a legendary hero?

At this thought, the two of them felt a chill in their hearts and looked at William Carter with even more curiosity.

There are already very few transfer heroes left on the Dota Continent, and legendary heroes are even rarer—most of them have already gone to the Holy Land.

Those who still remain on the Dota Continent probably number less than double digits. Of course, that only counts those who are still active; some have been in seclusion for a thousand years, or are neither dead nor alive old monsters, and they don’t count.

“I really hope I can learn a skill like Holy Persuasion when I reach level six, so I can summon lots and lots of little pets. That would be so cool!” The little girl stroked the light staff in her hand, her voice innocent and sweet.

William Carter chuckled, about to say something perfunctory like “You can definitely do it,” when he suddenly realized something: the little girl in front of him was actually an intelligence-type transfer warrior.

Intelligence-type transfer warriors are extremely rare and very powerful, because they are more likely to learn skills. In all his time on the Dota Continent, this was the first time William Carter had seen an intelligence-type transfer warrior.

No wonder the female ranger and the burly man were so protective of this little girl.

Speaking of which, this little girl was really adorable, making it hard not to have some thoughts at first glance…

How about… a little girl raising plan?

This thought suddenly popped into his mind, and even William Carter himself felt he was being evil to the extreme.
