Chapter 39 39 Major Update
Max was the first to arrive at Alex's apartment before his apartment was just stairs away, after a while Gabriel also came back and the update would be ready in 11 minutes.
It felt like time was rooted as the three of them sat down waiting for the new update to be ready.
Alex shared his password with them and they all say down waiting, Alex was on his bed as usual, while Gabriel sat on his chair and Max made himself comfortable on the ground.
Alex's room was clean so Max didn't mind sitting on the ground, the three of them tried to do something else to get their minds off the timer but they still took peeks time after time.
"One minute..." Gabriel said.
"What do you guys think the new update would be?" Max asked.
"Don't know... I'm just excited, even though it's a major update or a minor update the game is still great" Gabriel replied.
"I think it's going to be a major update, the game hasn't been updated in a long time, they must be working on something major," Alex said.
"Seconds..." Gabriel said in a loud voice and the three of them quickly wore their helmet, Alex took a deep breath as he watched the timer.

Alex closed his eyes till he heard a little beep, then a voice spoke, and he quickly opened his eyes.
[Server Update ready]

[Face ID complete...]
[Welcome back Reaper]
Alex couldn't help but be amazed, a second ago he was sitting in his bed in his apartment but now he was on another continent entirely, he was back at where he logged out close to the city.
Even when the players are not around the game continues, the city wall that was been repaired was also done and Alex smiled, the new update was ready but they wasn't a notification or anything.
'How would we know what is added' Alex sighed but before he could take a step the interface came up for him and every other player in Nova Online.

[Click on the help icon, a new icon 'New updates' was added, each of the latest features was explained]
Alex stare at the information in front of him, the minor updates didn't affect him because he didn't have any skills yet, skills are unlocked from level 10 and above, and the chances of him obtaining a legendary weapon are zero.
But the major update was shocking, first player vs player was now enabled, meaning the whole bounty killing is now over, players would be able to kill other players without the fear of being hunted down.
'What is the owner of this game trying to do, if names and levels of players are displayed then PvP would be easier...that means the company is trying to reduce players and earn more money'
'By enabling PvP players would be able to kill each other, and when a player is killed that would start a grudge, the player would want to kill the other player by all means'
'Dungeons have been introduced, finally... everyone knows that in an RPG game dungeons are always the spot for grinding so it's a must'
'I don't have any business with the top rankers till I become one of them...wait what!! Huntress is rank 5' Alex's jaws dropped open as he stare at her name on his screen.
'I met the rank 5 of Nova Online and I didn't know, I know she was a top player but I didn't expect her to be ranked 5'
Alex saw the last message and he quickly opened his interface, the game was going to explain the latest update and he couldn't wait to see.

Alex clicked on the [Help] icon and different pieces of information came up, he saw the icon he was looking for [New updates], and clicked on it.
More information came up about the new updates and Alex glanced through the screen.
[PvP] The restrictions placed when killing a fellow player have been lifted, player vs player battle is now enabled.
Killing a player 5 levels above you automatically levels you up, when a player is killed half of the player's items, loot, and coins would be transferred to the victor.

PvP is disabled in dungeons as the major focus would be on the beasts, maximum number of players allowed in a dungeon, 100 players.
Dungeon Difficulty is ranked by their level and final boss, XP would be shared among all players that survive the dungeon, items, and loot are scattered all over the dungeon.
Any player that kills a dungeon boss earns a special reward and a temporary title 'Beast Slayer' is awarded for 1 week.
[Paying feature] Normally only the top three players are being paid, but now all the top ten players would be paid according to their ranks. Each change in the top ten ranks would be announced.
'Why didn't I start playing as soon as the game was launched, I would have been one of the top ten' Alex pouted as he saw the paying features.
