Chapter 73 End of Internal Testing, Ambition
Chapter 73 End of Internal Testing, Ambition
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
The City of Dawn was not too far away from Rainbow Lake, only a few kilometers away. The journey also took less time now, due to roads being entirely constructed now.
The mountain roads were much safer too. The nearby wild beasts, magical beasts, and some dangerous, primitive tribes had been eliminated. Even typical civilians could travel up and down the roads.
If that was not the case, the fishermen would not have been able to transport their catches back. The patrol troops in the forest couldn’t continuously keep their eyes everywhere at the same time.
William brought the duo to the Rainbow Lake. They did not encounter anything strange. As players who had never seen this world, they were very curious about the scenery. They were full of excitement towards the adventure in the Blackleaf forest.
When they crossed the hillside, a downward sloping terrain appeared. One could see a colorful lake adorning the green fields from above.
Sunlight sprinkled over the Rainbow Lake, and the waves glistened in the light. A dozen small boats floated on the surface of the lake. The scene looked like something straight out of a beautiful painting.
Many wooden houses had been built on the grass beside the lake. The recently migrated Tauren Warriors diligently building their new homes.
When William arrived, they bowed respectfully. Although they were curious about why Fiu Roeser had not returned, they did not think too much of it.
After all, they could not guess that Fiu Roeser had basically lived in a blacksmithy so that he could quickly produce equipment for himself. It was not an exaggeration to say that he had completely forgotten about his people.
He has his own quirks. He did not want a helmet, but he wanted his horns to be made out of gold. No one knew why he wanted to be so dazzling. What was he up to…
There was a group of 50 soldiers stationed at the Rainbow Pier.
A human, a middle-level close-combat professional, was the leader. He had gained this position at a young age. When he saw the visitors, he quickly rushed over and bowed in respect. “Good day, city lord!”
“Enough with the formalities. Did anything unusual occur recently?”
“Not for now. As for the information that you had asked me to gather…” As the young leader spoke, he could not help but glance at the two players.
William picked his eyebrows. He said, “Let’s go into the house first. Then speak!”
“Yes, my Lord!”
Changli Jiuge and Fatso watched as the two of them walked into the house. They did not dare to follow them.
After all, the assistant city lord Odom and the highly respected Executive Lautner had chosen not to follow. They would be shooting themselves in the foot if they went inside, right?
The two of them were curious, but they knew it was good enough that they could witness this.
Without any doubt,
From the lord’s behavior, he was definitely not a boss who was satisfied with one position. He had the desire to advance and develop his powers.
Angry Fatty looked at Changli Jiuge. They laughed and wandered around. Gradually, the duo left the view of the two epic bosses.
Odom and Lautner watched the two players leave. They looked at each other and laughed. “Have they been chosen by the Gods?”
“Yes. They also possess undying bodies as in the legends.” Odom nodded his head. When William left, he had requested them to look out for these fellows. This behavior was unlike that towards ordinary civilians.
“Where did our Lord hear this information? He hadn’t been tricked or something, right?” Lautner was slightly worried.
“No, no. Yesterday, they were trying to bathe the Lord’s pet bears. I secretly allowed Big Bear to show its prowess and slap them to death twice. One turned into a white light and disappeared, but returned from the city. The other revived on the spot. Death means nothing to them…”
“Not only did I witness this with my own eyes, but a few other people also managed to. But I ordered them to remain calm.” Odom was also worried. The chosen ones had suddenly appeared.
Furthermore, they had undying bodies?
According to their Lord, they were brave warriors who had been sent by heaven…
“But why do they seem like a bunch of lackeys whose only perk is they can’t die?” Odom thought about this but did not say it out loud.
Lautner was too wondering about something, but he also kept silent.
He was not worried that William would do something irrational. The achievements over the past half-year and the entire City of Dawn were proof of his capability and foresight.
Even the Elfin Royalty in the Dark Night City had focused on the developments here. They seemed very curious. Why had William changed so much?
In many territories, there were 1000 players under the internal testing and could not die. They had attracted the attention of the NPCs in the Gods territory.
But the areas they landed in were new.
They did not cause a huge commotion.
When the game Beta would arrive, millions of players around the world would arrive at the same time. Only then, it would garner the NPCs’ attention.
But at this moment, the mysterious heavens would issue a decree through the dreams of the NPCs. Everyone would be told that these players were chosen by the Gods!
But why were they chosen by the Gods?
Why did they have undying bodies? It would definitely generate some panic.
But as time went by, everyone slowly forgot about the mysterious decree. They also gradually got used to these undying chosen ones and accepted the new world.
But a majority of the NPCs were full of distrust towards the chosen ones. The way the players behaved typically caused NPCs to not trust them. Not only were they immortal, but they also grew very quickly.
The NPCs all thought of ways to make use of them. They fought to make the chosen ones one of their trump cards.
Day after day, Angry Fatty and Changli Jiuge followed William to the two places. He increased their affinity by three points and cast them aside.
Furthermore, the background of the Gods, the levels of the NPCs, and some powers slowly appeared in front of the audience.
Meanwhile,
Players who were looking forward to this game slowly understood one thing.
There were very few Legendary Bosses! (This was a misunderstanding. Legendaries were everywhere. It was the truth that epics were very common.)
Till now, they had only discovered one, the lord of the City of Dawn, who had revealed himself.
Only a few epic bosses had been seen. Adding on the four from the CIty of Dawn, and three that other players had discovered, only a total of seven had been found.
But the players also slowly discovered one thing. City Dawn had too many bosses simply because the city occupied a relatively small area. The population density was high.
On the other hand, the Iron Nation and the Black Lava Nation occupied a large surface area. Many small towns, large cities, empires, and even palaces existed. Bosses had branches in various places, which made the search for them very difficult. Plus, if the players were not high-leveled enough, they would not be able to see them.
Furthermore, players should not expect too much from Legendary, epic, and master NPCs. They were all bosses.
As more adventurous players started to attack NPCs, problems started to pop up.
Players of the same level could match up against ordinary NPCs. They would face some difficulties if the NPCs’ had better bloodline.
Of course, this was under the circumstances that their equipment, secret books, and skills had not leveled up.
This could possibly indicate that the operations in “Gods” were too difficult. There were no lock-on attacks, and even rangers only had a massive front sight. This news destroyed the enthusiasm of many ranger players.
The player looked through some libraries and realized that their resources were very impressive. It was as if no matter whether they were ordinary, elite, leader, or epic NPCs, they all had a fatal weak point. It was their heads!
If the players had superb techniques and employed them to through the defenses, they might be able to deliver a fatal blow on the bosses.
But the main thing was, could they find an opportunity? They would have to risk their lives for it!
For a moment,
The veterans in the forum were full of appreciation. They seemed hardcore.
However, ordinary players felt that it was too difficult and could not accept it. But this was also the main reason that later one when “Gods” became popular, there were only 30 million leisure players and 60 million training players.
But some players revealed that two combat occupations could be chosen. It was discovered that each race had a special occupation. They could also learn skills from other races. This only served to make ‘Gods’ even more popular.
But what did two combat occupations and other skills learned from outside races meant?
It meant that there were countless possibilities for the players to fight. How could they not be excited?
In conclusion…
12 days passed, and the internal test players all went offline.
The forum closed.
After William was unable to obtain information on the players, his ambitions swelled once again!
He slowly turned to look at the ocean in the south, as well as the snowy mountains in the east!
