Harry stopped in his tracks as the surrounding players came forward to greet him, displaying great enthusiasm, which made him feel a bit embarrassed.
Originally, Harry intended to go solo, but after some consideration, he decided to join a team.
Although he was capable of soloing the Venom Snakes, it wasn't the time for leveling up yet. Completing the quest first was the key.
In Harry's opinion, completing quests was much faster than leveling up. Joining a team would allow them to split the Aggro of monsters, making it easier for him to quickly complete the quest.
The team consisted of three players, two males and one female. Harry roughly glanced at them and noted that the female was a Mage, while the other two males were Warriors, all around level 3. With this combination, as long as they were careful, dealing with the Venom Snakes wouldn't be much of a problem.
"Bro, would you like to take the position of the team leader?" one of the players, upon seeing Harry choose their team, quickly smiled and inquired.
He looked at Harry and was secretly surprised. He was practically a legendary figure who Managed to reach level 6 in a short amount of time and had extraordinary equipment. It was truly unbelievable.
Since entering the game until now, apart from wasting a few hours searching for the village chief, they had been grinding monsters and leveling up. Not to mention equipment, they hadn't even seen a few copper coins. And now, suddenly, such a player appeared, leaving them feeling unbelievable.
"No need. You two Warriors will be responsible for luring the monsters separately." Harry rejected the position of leader because he had to return after killing 20 Venom Snakes, which was the reason he joined the team. With two Warriors, they could split the Aggro and greatly increase the speed of monster grinding.
Upon hearing Harry's words, the three of them were momentarily stunned, but then they reacted and immediately split up to lure the monsters.
They had no choice but to follow Harry's instructions because his level and equipment had a tremendous impact on them.
Although the three of them were capable of grinding in the Venom Snakes area, they still needed to be cautious. They could only lure one snake at a time and wait until they recovered before luring the next one. But now, with Harry's arrival, they became excited.
Soon, the two Warriors lured three Venom Snakes. One of them seemed to have made a mistake and his HP kept decreasing. He must have been hit by the Venom Snakes 's skill.
Looking at the three Venom Snakes that had been lured over, Harry's expression remained the same. He swung the staff in his hand and a fireball instantly smashed towards one of the Venom Snakes.
"-160"
A large number floated above the Venom Snake's head, indicating a critical hit. The snake was instantly killed.
A crisp sound rang out as if the Venom Snake's death had triggered something. Harry casually glanced at it—it was probably copper coins.
None of the three teammates bothered to pick them up. At that moment, they were all stunned.
They had already held a high opinion of this legendary player, but none of them expected that this newcomer to the team would actually kill a Venom Snake in one hit!
Harry didn't care about the copper coins or the shocked expressions of the three people. He swung his staff once again, conjuring another fireball that flew straight at the head of the second snake.
"-80"
Seeing the Damage number appear, Harry furrowed his brows slightly. Although the fireball hit the snake's head, it didn't result in a critical hit. He quickly followed up with another fireball.
After the second snake died, Harry turned around and attacked the third snake.
...
In less than a minute, all three Venom Snakes were dead.
At this point, ignoring the shocked expressions of the three players, Harry walked alone to the side of the Venom Snakes' corpse, picked up the copper coins, and began collecting Poison Elements.

"Continue luring the monsters, don't waste time." After collecting the Poison Elements, Harry turned to look at the three of them. Seeing that they were still in shock, he smiled and said.
The three players in the team snapped out of their daze upon hearing Harry's words and immediately split up to lure the monsters.
Not only them but also the surrounding players had been secretly observing Harry since his arrival. They had witnessed the scene of him killing Venom Snakes in one hit, and now they were gasping for breath, filled with disbelief.
In their view, Harry must be someone with a powerful background in a major clan. However, his name didn't have any clan prefix.
Harry ignored the gazes of the players around him. He checked his Mana, and it was indeed recovering 1 point per second.
Before long, two Warriors quickly ran over from a distance. Harry looked up and saw that they were being chased by seven Venom Snakes, hissing and spitting venom as they relentlessly pursued them.
The two Warriors in the team were just testing Harry's ability when they lured three snakes on their first attempt. That was not their limit. After all, if they lured too many snakes on their first try, even if Harry was a great player, there was a possibility of the team being wiped out.
However, after witnessing Harry kill Venom Snakes in one hit, they no longer had any concerns. They thought, the more they lured, the more experience they could gain from the snakes. This was their current mindset.
Harry saw that the two Warriors had attracted so many poisonous snakes. How could he not see what they were thinking? Although there were many players around, there were even more poisonous snakes. With only three snakes lured on the first attempt, Harry instantly understood that the two Warriors were just testing his ability.
However, Harry didn't say anything. Instead, he praised the two Warriors for their caution.
The arrival of the seven Venom Snakes made the surrounding players stop farming monsters. They turned their heads and looked at the player named Savion, curious to see how he would handle the situation.
Looking at the seven Venom Snakes slithering towards him, Harry's expression was calm. He didn't panic at all. Although he was under a lot of pressure, he could still handle it.
When the Venom Snakes entered the attack range, Harry raised his staff and a fireball appeared, smashing into one of the snakes.
"-160"
Another critical hit appeared, and Venom Snake was instantly killed.
"Don't let the Venom Snakes get close to you." Harry kindly reminded him, and then continued to attack the next snake with his staff.
The two Warriors, with the snakes following closely behind them, didn't dare to ignore Harry's warning. If they accidentally got poisoned, they would be free teleported instantly. So they could only keep running, dodging the snake's attacks, and let the expert deal the damage.
"Don't just stand there," Harry looked at the girl in the team and saw that she was staring at him in a daze. He smiled and reminded her.
Upon hearing that, the girl instantly snapped out of her daze and blushed. She quickly swung her wooden staff and launched a fireball skill to attack the Venom Snakes.
