Is this NPC even playable if it's not nerfed?

Chapter 20 The Landlord's Foolish Son Ambushs Mountain Bandits
[1:100, buying in bulk, as many as you have.]

The player forum was completely ignited by a single post.

One to one hundred, whose stupid son just ran away?

It's just a Xuan-level martial arts manual, it shouldn't cost a million, right?

Not really.

Although Xuan-level martial arts are relatively rare, this does not mean that they are difficult to obtain.

There are many ways to obtain Xuan-level martial arts techniques.

The simplest way is to become an apprentice.

By joining a top-tier sect, one can gain access to Xuan-level martial arts, and even higher-level Di-level martial arts.

As for Heaven-level martial arts, that's highly unlikely.

Putting aside how rare this level of martial arts is, these NPCs treat players like thieves, and given their nature, they would never easily teach players heaven-level martial arts.

Even ordinary players can obtain Xuan-level martial arts techniques if they are willing to persevere.

It's not about how long you have to stay up.

For most players, spending one million to buy a Xuan-level martial arts manual is a very stupid thing to do.

……

[One million? Whose stupid son ran away? Is it really worth it for a single Xuan-level martial arts manual?]

[I thought it was that other guy, but it's just Young Master Leng. Oh, never mind then. Young Master Leng is known as the most clueless guy in our gaming circle; a million is just pocket change for him.]

[Young Master Leng? Is that the spendthrift son who secretly sold his family's shares to play Glory of Kings?]

Yes, yes, that's the spendthrift son who angered his father to the point of death.

Oh, it's him. Never mind then.

……

In the real world, in the office of a real estate group, the young master, whom players jokingly call the number one idiot in the gaming world, is calmly looking at the screen.

Behind him, several secretaries sat at computers, controlling a bunch of fake accounts to spread the news of his acquisition of points.

Judging from the content of the post published by the secretary.

He's building momentum.

The purpose is not yet clear.

But he didn't seem to be as shrewd as the players described; on the contrary, he was quite clever.

"Third Young Master, a blogger posted a video calling you stupid and making personal attacks against you."

"Should we have our legal department colleagues handle this?"

One of the secretaries saw a video that insulted their third young master and was somewhat displeased.

Is their third young master stupid?
Giving them a bonus equivalent to 28 months' salary every year? Are they idiots? They're clearly the gods of wealth, our bread and butter. The slander from the outside world is just jealousy of their third young master.

"Insulting me? Who did it?"

Leng Shao asked casually.

"A melancholy hamster."

"Oh, that poor bastard, it's fine, let him curse if he wants, it's not the first time he's cursed at me anyway."

Hearing that familiar name, Leng Shao didn't take it to heart.

This is an old friend.

Their feud stemmed from a military-themed game.

As for what Leng Shao did.

He didn't think he had done anything that would anger heaven and man.

All they did was crush the opposing alliance, poach all their players, and incidentally steal their goddess away.

This is no big deal.

Is it really necessary to criticize him for several years?

This hamster is so stingy.

"Keep posting, build up the momentum."

"After get off work today, all of you go to the finance department to collect your one-month salary as a bonus."

With a wave of his hand, the young master gave his secretary another month's salary.

"Thank you, Third Young Master."

"By the way, Third Young Master, the Eldest Young Master is looking for you."

"Okay, pick me up."

……

It is located a hundred miles away from Wangyou County.

A group of bandits were riding up on horseback.

Smoke billowed, and menacing figures wielding weapons roamed the area, causing chaos wherever they went.

Many innocent people have been brutally murdered.

For these bandits, massacring entire villages was nothing out of the ordinary.

They don't massacre villages around their stronghold because they regularly plunder those villages. Massacring villages would be like draining the pond to catch all the fish, which is detrimental to the development of the stronghold.

Villages outside the sphere of influence don't have this kind of concern. "Chief, we'll reach Wangyou County in about a hundred li."

"It should arrive around tomorrow."

"Let's rest here. The brothers are tired too. Let them eat and drink well, rest well, and recover their strength. Tomorrow we'll slaughter that wretched county town."

“Cut off the heads of that corrupt official and the head constable and use them as chamber pots.”

The second-in-command made the suggestion.

The leader looked at the brothers behind him and nodded.

"We'll walk another fifty miles and then rest."

After traveling for several days, the road was very bumpy, and even he, a fifth-rank martial artist, was exhausted.

Rumor has it that the chief constable of Wangyou County is very powerful. Although he doesn't know the extent of his martial arts skills, he decided to rest well for the sake of safety and slaughter Wangyou County tomorrow to avenge his Ninth Master and uphold the prestige of his Black Mountain Stronghold.

Of course, that's not their real goal.

The Ninth Master is dead.

They didn't need to travel thousands of miles to Wangyou County to massacre a dead man and incur the court's hatred.

This is not reasonable.

Not worth it either.

Their real purpose was to seize the wealth of Master Liu and the Chen family of Wangyou County.

The fact that Master Liu could become the money bag for their Black Mountain stronghold already demonstrates his ability to make money.

Moreover, when Liu Yuanwai sought help from Heishan Village, he mentioned some information about the Chen family in Wangyou County.

The Chen family is very wealthy.

He was extremely wealthy; according to Master Liu, his wealth was a hundred times, or even more, than that of his Liu family.

Based on this alone, the many bandits of Black Mountain Village had no reason not to make a trip to Forget-Worry County.

As for the Chen family's background, they didn't care.

With the emperor far away and the capital city so high, what can the Chen family do?
They are bandits.

"Hahaha."

There seems to be a village ahead.

"Brothers, let's go have some fun."

"Ha ha ha ha."

"No, there's someone there."

The bandits, who were laughing wildly, suddenly noticed movement in the bushes.

Sure enough, just as he opened his mouth, an arrow shot out from the grass.

"Shhhhh..."

The surrounding grass seemed to come alive.

Arrows kept flying out.

Some bandits, caught off guard, were shot and fell off their horses.

A figure leaped out of the bushes and headed straight for the bandit who had fallen from his horse.

Finish off the enemy.

"court death."

The second-in-command, who was not far away, was furious.

He drew his sword and swung it.

A bright white blade of energy instantly sliced ​​through the attacker, cleaving him in two.

"what……"

With a scream, the figure turned into specks of light on the spot.

This bizarre scene caught the second-in-command off guard.

what?
Where's the body?
"He is an extraordinary person."

"Second Master, that person is an extraordinary individual."

The bandit who had witnessed the extraordinary person suddenly shouted.

Then, players kept jumping out of the bushes and heading towards the bandits.

"Brothers, kill them."

"Finish him off, finish him off."

"You only get points for killing bandits."

Dozens of players teamed up to ambush the bandits of Black Mountain Village.

Their plan is feasible.

However, their rank is too low.

Even if some of the bandits were injured through a sneak attack, their own level was too low to finish them off.

"kill."
