Chapter 165: Chapter 165 Player Behavior

The figure sat sideways to Anvis, quietly sipping a pale orange drink garnished with two light blue, bead-like wild berries at the bottom.

Due to the angle, Anvis caught a fleeting glimpse, from the opening of the cloak across that figure’s chest, of a snippet of garment.

Pure black in color, with a collar featuring three simple gold lines, and half-covered, a silver-white, ring-shaped [Light Holy Emblem].

This attire was all too familiar to Anvis.

A Church Bishop of the Holy Radiance Church? Why would they also appear here?

With some confusion and caution in mind, Anvis did not show any reaction outwardly, simply maintaining his earlier pace as he slowly left the tavern with Jom.

Throughout, that figure who was suspected to be a Church Bishop of the Holy Radiance, did not turn their head to glance even once.

A Church Bishop of the Holy Radiance is synonymous with Eighth Rank, and moreover, one of the most powerful among the Eighth Rank.

Though Jom is also a rare Eighth Rank Frostwind Knight, if the two were to truly fight, Anvis was also unsure who would win or lose.

After leaving the tavern, Anvis quickly reviewed the recent targets on the island in his mind.

Explore the temple of [Rai], the Old God, in the town center; explore the ancient Black Tower in the corner of the town; check the specific changes of the island’s Curse Field at night;

Explore the huge castle at the top of the island’s mountains; find the Gem Mine; and explore the rock wall engraved with a giant human figure and the cave Evan mentioned.

At this thought, Anvis suddenly clenched his right fist, gently hitting the palm of his left hand.

Right, and incidentally look for the missing Evan!

Meanwhile, in a certain dungeon, the thought of figure wrapped amidst a mass of pink tendrils twitched.

After pondering for a moment, Anvis decided to start exploring from the temple of [Rai], which was closest to him.

The source of that mysterious protective field was enough to warrant his research.

As for the mass arrival of players, Anvis wasn’t worried at the moment.

Without the hundredfold Experience of the beta test, players would not be able to affect the upper levels too much in a short period of time.

"Hey! Caught you—"

At this moment, at the other end of the city, Xia Ye Yinghuo suddenly pounced and finally caught the cat that was the task goal.

Only, this cat was a bit odd; its left hind leg grew an eye that could rotate and look at the girl.

After she handed the cat over to the NPC who issued the mission, the mission was finally completed.

[System Notification: ’Find the Lost Cat’ task completed, you have gained 200 Experience points.]

Looking satisfied at her experience bar, Xia Ye Yinghuo also glanced at the level leaderboard.

Then, she was shocked by the top few who were already close to Level Ten.

How long had the server been open? How did they do it?

.........

Outside of Frostlin City in Karlars Province,

Thwack—

Last Dragon Descendant, holding an ordinary iron dagger, skillfully made a quick slash across the throat of another novice Human Race player, and then withdrew.

Under the combined effects of critical hit damage and the negative status [Bleeding], the attacked player’s HP instantly dropped to zero.

The body fell to the ground and turned into a beam of white light after three minutes.

At the same time, the name of the Last Dragon Descendant, which had turned a deep shade of red, leveled up once more, reaching Level Nine.

After all this, Last Dragon Descendant sat down on a nearby rock, waiting quietly.

During this time, another Elf player and a Dwarf player came running over, only to have their throats cut in the same manner by Last Dragon Descendant.

About ten minutes later, the resurrected Human Race player came running back, panting heavily.

"This newbie protection zone is such a hassle, having to run so far away just to get attacked, it’s so inefficient!"

Seeing the Last Dragon Descendant waiting on the side, he couldn’t help but complain.

"..."

The Last Dragon Descendant could only maintain a polite and professional smile, unsure how to respond.

Luckily, the Human Race player just grumbled casually, and after venting, he directly ran up to the Last Dragon Descendant and, with hands on his knees, took deep breaths.

Observing his exhausted state, the Last Dragon Descendant’s dagger moved slightly, swiftly slicing across his throat again to help refresh his negative status.

However, this time, the fallen body didn’t turn into white light but gradually dissipated into fading specks of light.

This indicated one thing: the player had exhausted all his respawn chances, and his character was permanently gone.

Fifteen minutes later—

A Dark Elf player ran over.

"No drop, continue—"

"Understood, boss."

The Last Dragon Descendant had just slit the Dwarf’s throat before him and gave an OK gesture to the newly-created Dark Elf character, while taking the opportunity to give the Dwarf another stab.

Being short made it easy to reach.

Afterward, the Dark Elf player also fell dead under the Elf’s blade.

Checking the wear on the dagger, the Last Dragon Descendant sighed, took advantage of the fact that the bosses hadn’t returned yet, and sharpened the blade on a nearby rock to make it even sharper.

Before the official server launch, he had contacted several bosses and arranged to help them farm rare races for five thousand each.

Slitting throats was for efficiency and to minimize equipment wear as much as possible.

It wasn’t easy to get decent equipment for newbies, so it was best to save whenever possible.

At the start of the open beta, the Last Dragon Descendant immediately took advantage of his beta testing knowledge of the game map and took an iron dagger and a logging axe from a hunter’s cabin he had set his sights on long before.

According to the panel, the damage from the logging axe was actually higher than that from the dagger.

But after a few chops, the bosses asked him to switch to the dagger because even with pain reduced to one percent, getting hit in the neck would still jarringly shake the head and bones.

From the start of the open beta to now, the Last Dragon Descendant has farmed for quite a few Magic Times.

He couldn’t recall the exact number of times he farmed, but each boss had to recreate their characters dozens of times at the very least.

His level was a by-product of this race farming activity, gaining 200 experience points for every Level Zero player farmed.

"Got it! A hit!"

Suddenly, an excited voice rang out.

The Last Dragon Descendant turned his head and saw a humanoid race covered in dark green scale armor with a beautifully streamlined figure.

"A rare species [Sub-dragon]! Talent Dragon Bloodline! Increases Strength, Endurance, Constitution, toxin resistance, and life recovery, and grants the ability to breathe underwater!"

"Congratulations!"

The Elf politely nodded at him, then without waiting for the Dwarf in front to say anything, quickly delivered a stab, forcing his words back into his stomach.

One goal down, two to go.

Taking advantage of the other two bosses still respawning, the Elf sneakily checked the leaderboard.

At the top was White Light Esports’ rival, a player from Silver Blue Club [Silver Blue Esports—Dark Card].

Currently, he had leveled up to Level Ten, advancing to become an Official Professional.

Clearly, clubs have advantages over Independents when taking on jobs.
