After collecting a whole sack of four-leaf clovers and carrying it on his shoulders, Yang Yu walked out of the grass garden and happened to meet his father Kari.
"Are you ready?"
“Hmm.”
"Good luck and don't get hurt."
There were no extra words. Cary had seen all of Yang Yu's efforts over the past year. As a father, all he could do was to silently support his child and let him follow the path he wanted to take.
Lisa watched the scene from afar, and her right hand clenched on her chest. She also saw Yang Yu's efforts in the past year.
At first, she thought her son was finally going to live an honest life, but she didn't expect that all this was a prelude to completing the task they had assigned him.
During this year, Lisa thought a lot, and with her husband's constant persuasion, she had no choice but to accept the fact that her son had grown up.
Even so, she still hopes that her son can stay with her, marry a lovely wife, have a big fat boy, and live an ordinary life.
In addition to the couple, people in the village also looked at the timid boy in the past with a new respect.
It was not only because he defeated the village bully, but also because they saw Yang Yu's growth. He proved with practical actions that no one in the village could be his opponent.
He is the hope of the whole village.
Today, all the villagers came to see him off and gave him the best sword in the village.
Carrying a sack of four-leaf clovers and putting away his silver sword, and bearing the enthusiastic gazes of the villagers, Yang Yu stepped out of the Novice Village and came to the forest he had visited a year ago.
The sunshine here is still bright, shining on the lush forest.
Not long after walking, a blue jelly-like creature jumped out from the grass.

The lv7 slime has incredible attribute values and is as bossy as ever. However, this is what makes it worth challenging.
I’ve been farming for a year, all for today. I’m willing to take your experience points if you gamble your dignity as a player!
Yang Yu drew his sword.
At this moment, Slime was also looking at Yang Yu carefully.
"I seem to have seen this person somewhere. Oh, now I remember. A year ago, when I ran away secretly, I met him twice. He even gave me a four-leaf clover."
Slime He Meng thought so.
In most people’s impressions, slime is a very common weak monster, cannon fodder among cannon fodder.
But that's just human bias.
Slimes built their own cities underground, which are strong enough to withstand the frontal attack of any human country. They also have their own classes, including civilians, merchants, nobles, soldiers, and even kings and queens.
However, there is a type of slime that does not belong to the category of citizens of the Slime Kingdom. After the slime dies, although its consciousness disappears, its body can still move, becoming a zombie among slimes. This type of slime that only moves by instinct is called low-level slime by the Slime Kingdom.
The Slime Kingdom will drive these rapidly splitting low-level slimes to the surface and use adventurers to deal with these troubles in order to achieve internal balance.
Because of this, most people's impression of slimes has always been that they are weak and useless, which also indirectly protects and hides the Slime Kingdom.
The easiest way to distinguish between low-level slimes and citizens of the Slime Kingdom is to use a four-leaf clover.
Low-level slimes have no sense of taste, and the food they eat is simply digested into energy for action, so it doesn't matter what they eat.
Slimes of civilian level and above have the ability to discern food and can extract essence energy from what they eat to enhance themselves.
And four-leaf clover is the favorite food of higher-level slimes, nothing else.
Although the four-leaf clover only has one more leaf than the three-leaf clover, the taste is very different. To make an analogy, it is like fresh Indian buffalo beef and large pieces of grilled Japanese Kobe beef. There is an absolutely unbridgeable gap between the two, and it is definitely not a question of whether it is grilled or not.
The Slime Kingdom also grows four-leaf clovers, but the yield is extremely low, and it is a luxury that only princes and ministers can enjoy.
In order to taste this legendary delicacy, many civilian slimes chose to take risks and sneaked out of the underground kingdom to the surface world.
The upper echelons acquiesced to this situation. After all, rather than letting people’s dissatisfaction ferment within the empire, it would be better to open the door to a new world for them.
Therefore, among the low-level slimes wandering outside, there are many citizens of the Slime Kingdom with self-awareness, and gradually there are rumors that slimes eat four-leaf clovers.
He Meng is also a citizen of the Slime Kingdom, but it is not an ordinary citizen of the Slime Kingdom, but a slime with royal blood.
From this point alone, its strength is not on the same level as ordinary slime.
It is easy for it to enjoy the four-leaf clover as it is. The reason why it came to the surface world is not to look for the four-leaf clover, but simply because it is curious about the outside world.
“Meeting the same person three times is a kind of fate.
Even though he had been rude enough to swing his sword at me without any reason before, I forgave him because he treated me to four-leaf clover.
I don’t know if he will bring a four-leaf clover this time. If he gives me more four-leaf clovers, I may consider being friends with him.”
Just as he was thinking this, the young man in front of him flashed and swung the shiny silver sword towards him. He Meng did not dodge and directly took Yang Yu's attack.
HP-4
"You have really grown a lot since our first meeting, but this is not enough to shake my defense. For the sin of daring to swing your sword at me, you will pay with your body."
Unlike those low-level slimes that can only rely on instinct to launch defensive attacks, He Meng has been trained since childhood and knows a lot of fighting skills. As long as he is a little serious, dealing with a human boy is a piece of cake.
He Meng straightened his posture and slowly jumped up, launching a warning attack. If the warning was ineffective, he would show no mercy in every subsequent attack.
"Pah—"
Avoiding the attack, Yang Yu threw out a four-leaf clover.
He Meng squirmed his body and sucked the four-leaf clover into his body. The four-leaf clover was fresh and juicy. He had never eaten such a delicious four-leaf clover.
"It tastes good this time. If you can stop now, I will let you live!"
Yang Yu didn't understand the slime language at all. To him, the slime in front of him was just burping.
Seeing that the slime's state had turned friendly, he swung his sword and launched a series of slashes. With a series of operations, he managed to knock off more than 30 points of He Meng's blood.
"To be honest, I'm really angry. Even if you give me another four-leaf clover, I will never forgive you this time!" He Meng was very angry, but considering the fact that the other side gave her such a delicious four-leaf clover, she only launched a warning attack.
Easily dodging the attack, Yang Yu threw out another four-leaf clover.
"Only one, are you kidding the kids?" He Meng was very firm. The pain in his body would not be healed by just a four-leaf clover.
"Pah—"
Yang Yu threw out another four-leaf clover. Seeing that the slime ignored him, he simply grabbed a handful of four-leaf clovers and threw them over.
“Pah—” “Pah—” “Pah—”
"At this point, your attempt to bribe me is useless. I know your purpose. You just want to defeat me and gain my experience points! Bear my wrath!"
Originally He Meng wanted to say this, but he gave too much.
