Chapter 308: Chapter 304: 0-Year-Old Little Stone

Whether it was Priestess Granny or the Mushroom Man Elders, Mu Ying felt grateful for their help, including the Half-Breeds and players who joined for the rewards of Contribution Points and coins.

It made Mu Ying feel that she wasn’t fighting alone.

Although she was still a loner, she wasn’t lonely.

Isn’t this what the meaning of a territory was all about?

She went back to the Magic Hut in the Plantation in a good mood, where Little Stone was famished, wriggling and clinging to her fingers.

Despite having fed on Stone Milk for so long, it remained palm-sized, but had transformed from a stone cake into a rounded pebble.

Mu Ying was now a practiced nanny, grinding Stone Milk with great proficiency; it didn’t take long before she had a large bowlful prepared.

Little Stone nestled in the bowl, slurping away.

In the past, the Feeding process would only clear the Stone Milk, but this time, not only did the Stone Milk become transparent, the color of Little Stone also became lighter, turning into a light grey, semi-transparent stone.

Its shape evolved from an oval pebble into a round stone sphere.

And it didn’t feel like a stone to the touch anymore; it was springy, and she could mold it into various shapes.

According to the "Underground City Baby Feeding Guide," Little Stone had finally reclaimed the vitality it had lost from being hungry for who knows how many years.

Mu Ying checked the Underground City page.

[Underground City]

[Age: 0]

[Size: None]

The age had finally changed from "None" to "0," yet the size remained "None."

The age of creatures in the Underground City isn’t calculated by time, but is equivalent to their level.

Starting from age 0, Little Stone could now eat stone powder, so she wouldn’t need to laboriously grind its Stone Milk anymore.

She had prepared the stone powder well in advance, having set up a stone-grinding station at Quarry Camp and hired people specifically to produce the stone powder—one ton of it, enough to last Little Stone until it turned 1.

Mu Ying brought out a big wooden vat and tossed Little Stone into it.

The vat was filled to the brim with stone powder.

Little Stone:١١(❛ᴗ❛) Eat eat eat!!

As Little Stone busily chowed down, Mu Ying also made herself something to eat and browsed the World Forum while eating.

The top trending post was: "Level 7, 14% — Level 8, 5%: What kind of monster is a Druid?"

Mu Ying: "..."

Isn’t this talking about her?

Seeing this post, she knew how many people were shocked by her level growth today, and actually, she felt pretty good about it inside.

The leveling speed of Draco the Barbarian from Bear Country Region and Vinica the Bard from Northern Europe was also quick, with the gap between them and her closing all the time.

Even yesterday, they had been at the same level as her.

Lately, one post has been very popular, consistently in the top three, and it’s still in second place now, forming a stark contrast with the top post: "Druids’ weakness in the late game — Level ranking leader is not a Druid."

Previously, this post was full of comments about people whose Perception was not bad, seeing Mu Ying leveling up fast and following the trend by choosing the Druid profession, only to end up in a sorry state.

They call Druid a jack-of-all-trades, master of none, with weak combat abilities and a poor career outlook, saying Mu Ying’s level is inflated and that she’ll fall behind later on.

They also said among the top ten players in the Xia Country region, two have strong perception, one Druid and one Priest, both support professions; seriously, they’re not even as good as one player from another profession when it comes to fighting, so those two Trialist spots are a waste.

In short, there were a lot of snide remarks and mockery.

Mu Ying had her fill of these negative posts, yet she didn’t take them to heart.

The anonymity of the World Forum is such that it tends to magnify people’s nastier sides, so such comments are normal.

Mu Ying might not know much about other professions and wouldn’t have much say, but when it comes to the Druid profession, she doesn’t think it lacks prospects.

The Doomsday Game has eleven professions, and not a single one is useless; each has its unique characteristics.

This isn’t just some actual online game where a man-made professional system might have flaws.

Beyond Blue Star, the entire Multiverse’s battle profession system is the same, absolutely time-tested.

There are six attributes in total. Different attributes tend to suit different professions. Ultimately, there are only eleven professions. If there really were such disadvantaged professions, they would have been weeded out long ago.

Mu Ying always felt that there are no weak professions, only weak people. What suits you is the best for you.

So she took these posts as nothing but a joke.

Still, she clicked into this post to have a look.

"Is the person who said Druids were no good still here? How’s your face? Does it hurt?"

"Haha, I’m dying, good at nothing but getting slapped first!"

"I don’t know if Druids can take on other professions of the same level, but I’m sure Mu Ying can—if you’re lucky enough to have seen that vine that looks like a tentacled monster."

...

The tone of the comments changed completely.

Though she didn’t care much, seeing these people get slapped in the face was quite satisfying. She clicked in just to enjoy the moment, a little appetizer for herself.

After browsing for a while and feeling better, she went to look at the first post.

"Today, in just a few hours, we’ve witnessed Mu Ying rocket from 7th level and 14% all the way to 8th level and 5%, those who stared at the level rankings waiting to laugh at her must be struggling to chuckle now; she’s the first to break through again.

But this doesn’t mean that Druids have an easier time leveling compared to other professions; it just shows that Mu Ying is a monster.

Previously Druids were acknowledged to level up quickly in the early stages. I believe Mu Ying played a significant role in this, as she was the first to figure out and share the Druid profession’s leveling methods, helping her residents and spreading it beyond, saving many Druids from taking detours.

This time, too, Mu Ying has discovered another shortcut to gain professional experience for Druids, which is by dealing with those who severely disrupt the natural environment.

To judge a profession’s strength, one shouldn’t only look at the leading players but also the middle and lower tiers, the majority. In fact, the proportion of strong players in each profession is roughly the same, only some professions have a smaller base.

So, the monster isn’t Druid; it’s Mu Ying."

Although Mu Ying has her reservations about being called a monster, she must admit that this post isn’t just clickbait. Some points were quite spot-on and reasonable.

Beneath it were some interesting comments as well.

"I’m not jealous of Mu Ying leveling up like a rocket, I just think the Doomsday Game owes me a giant panda, the kind that throws fruit."

"Not only is Mu Ying the number one Druid, but her Gungun is also the number one animal companion. Unfortunately, her master is too powerful, which makes its taunting skills useless. Today, I am just another lemon spirit."

"It’s not just a taunting panda, it’s a kung fu panda, man! I saw it with my own eyes, Gungun rolling over Fishman, and not a single hair was harmed by their spears, can you believe it?"
