Game Merchants Starting from the Ninja World

But as his power was unleashed, he felt unprecedented pressure.

Lotus's strength seems to be much greater than imagined.

hula.

The Holy Lord raised his thick, dragon-man-like arm, a chain tightly wrapped around his wrist.

【Demon-Sealing Bracelet (Tier 2)】: A bracelet that can seal magic power.

Originally, this kind of thing was used for confinement.

However, the Holy Lord used it to directly seal away the statue seal that Lü Dongbin had reinforced on him, and he finally escaped.

However, Lü Dongbin's strength was simply too great, causing the [Demon Sealing Bracelet] to only barely seal a portion of the demonic power left behind by the opponent.

So although they escaped, their strength had not recovered to its peak.

Moreover, the twelve talismans containing his power are lost all over the world. Only by retrieving those complete talismans can he reach his strongest form.

"Just you wait, Lotus. The majesty of the Fire Demon cannot be challenged. I will come back for you once I have regained my full power!"

The Holy Lord spoke harshly and resentfully.

Even though he sensed that even in his strongest form, he was no match for Lotus, he still stubbornly insisted on his claim.

at this time,

He had arrived at the deepest part of the Celestial Beast, at the temple ruins of the [First Spine], and sensed a super-huge black octopus.

【Lotus's Pet - Black Octopus (Lord-level)】

"I'll start by collecting the interest for your disrespect towards the fire demon, and then kill your pet!"

The Holy Lord stared longingly at the black octopus. If he could hunt down this monster, he should be able to get a higher-quality treasure chest.

……

Levi was covered in blood, his arm was broken, but he recovered after drinking a recovery potion.

Behind them were countless corpses of cat demons and minotaurs.

A treasure chest fell out, which he opened with a swift and decisive motion.

【Ogre's Soul (Material)】: The main material for crafting 【Berserker Potion】. You also need to collect Vengeance Soul Stones and small red crystals. After drinking the complete potion, you can change your class to 【Berserker】.

Tip: To find the Soulstone of Vengeance, you need to go to the Dark Thunder Ruins.

"Boring, Berserker... Just from the name, you can tell he's the kind of guy who'll definitely end up covered in blood in a fight."

Levi said he hated it, but his body moved as he searched for the Dark Thunder Ruins mentioned in the game hints.

Having experienced the destruction of the world, he did not react excessively.

But the free will to lead the world out of being controlled by others has surged to an unprecedented level.

sizzle...

A chill crept into my chest through my collar.

Levi's expression was serious as he warily surveyed his surroundings.

Roar.

A red zombie leaped out of the lush jungle, its claws outstretched, and a ball of black energy flew toward Levi.

Crossing the two swords, they shattered the black ball.

Like an arrow released from a bow, Levi launched his grappling hook, using the pull to accelerate and sever the red zombie's neck in one strike.

He did not let his guard down as he watched the fallen red zombie.

Because these monsters always appear in groups.

really,

A dozen or so zombies staggered out, smelled the scent of living people, and pounced toward Levi.

Just as Levi was about to make a move, he suddenly realized something was wrong and quickly jumped up.

But it was too late.

Suddenly, a chilling aura condensed on the soles of my feet, like an ice bomb, threatening to explode my legs.

Fortunately, I acted in advance, which barely managed to freeze my left calf.

boom.

Levi used the hilt of his sword to smash the ice, pulled out his frozen left leg, and quickly moved it around on one leg.

In the past, if the legs were frozen, the person would lose the ability to move immediately.

Fortunately, the treasure chests he had opened earlier contained many game items that could enhance his physical abilities, giving him a recovery ability comparable to some of the giants he once was.

"That's... a monster that can drop Vengeance Soul Stones?"

Levi's pupils suddenly contracted as he clearly saw the assailant who attacked him.

A zombie, its flesh and blood rotting and falling away, leaving only a emaciated skeleton, was surrounded by an aura of ice. Even its bones and remaining rotten flesh were an extreme blue.

He held a huge scythe in his hand.

With each swing of the sickle, a gust of cold air was generated, freezing the air so hard it seemed to explode.

[Corpse Thief - Bone Prison Breath (Lord-level)]

"The Survey Corps never retreats!"

Levi took a deep breath, gripped his twin swords, and charged towards the monster.

……

[The rookie trial has ended...]

The countdown ended, and all the newcomers were teleported back to the town square in the game, where they looked at each other in bewilderment.

Some people were laughing wildly, seemingly having received many benefits, while others looked worried and were clearly too scared by the monsters to hunt, instead hiding somewhere to pass the time of the newbie trial.

[Leaderboard (Newcomers)]

Rascal: 380 points, Ying Zheng: 350 points, Holy Lord: 330 points, Levi: 276 points...

Tip: The top five newcomers on the leaderboard will be awarded the special item "Newcomer King" title by the game merchant.

Tip 2: When wearing the "Newcomer King" title, all Tier 1 items can be purchased at a 10% discount (for personal use only) and cannot be traded.

"Damn it."

Mei Terumi's face was grim; although she had anticipated the outcome, she was still extremely displeased.

The title of "Newcomer King" is also one of the reasons why various forces want to recruit newcomers. They can purchase items in various game towns at a 10% discount. Although these items cannot be traded, it is equivalent to shortening the time and money required to cultivate the player.

[Players who have been bet on will be automatically teleported to [Moonlight Tavern]...]

Whoosh whoosh.

A beam of teleportation light appeared.

All the players who had placed bets went to the second floor of the Moonlight Tavern to face the top players directly.

Levi said rather unhappily, "Betting, is this some kind of depraved game played by nobles? How disgusting."

Before the world of giants was destroyed, I heard that the nobles inside the core walls engaged in some perverse gameplay.

Therefore, he had absolutely no liking for this kind of game.

"You're thinking too simplistically."

Tsunade shook her head solemnly and said, "All of this is to better select outstanding and promising players to fight against the polluted world."

This was indeed the original intention of game merchants; making money was only a secondary reason.

"Humans, how dare you bet on the devil? You're courting death."

The Holy Lord showed no mercy; his enormous body almost touched the ceiling of the Moonlight Tavern.

He lowered his head and looked at the human ants that he had once ruled, who were now looking at him with an indifferent smile.

"Don't get angry, it's just a game, and I have no intention of recruiting you."

Aizen's smile was gentle, showing no sign of being disturbed by the demon wizard's provocation.

demon?

Such a peculiar life form; I wonder if it can resist its own illusions and fleeting nature?

Chapter 439 The Scoundrel Snake: I'm the champion, why won't you choose me?

"Extremely weak, are these the players in the Reincarnation Game?"

The Holy Lord bent over, his fingers hovering in front of Aizen, who wore glasses and looked easy to bully, his sharp nails almost touching Aizen's forehead.

His tone was disdainful.

To be honest, I was really shocked at first. The mysterious game world and the game items that could unlock Lü Dongbin's seal.

However, it wasn't until after the newcomer trial ended that he vaguely realized what was going on.

The so-called game merchants are just using them as henchmen to fight against enemies.

The most terrifying being is the monster, Long-Legged Lotus, who can make even a world-ruling demon wizard feel oppressed.

"The power of holy light, frost, and fire?"

The Holy Lord's gaze swept over the top players in the Moonlight Tavern, sensing an aura from them that was equally matched with his own.

As expected, my judgment was correct.

They're just a bunch of idiots bewitched by the so-called game. If the game merchants were capable of dealing with [Long-Legged Lotus], what would they need these players for?

A cowardly and timid fellow who relies on scheming and trickery.

This reminded Shendu of Jackie Chan, whom he disliked the most.

If the other players knew what the Holy Lord was thinking, they would only find it laughable and laugh their heads off.
