Full health is the kill threshold, no matter if you're a god or a demon!

[Heart of Steel activated, HP +81].

A muffled thud.

Under the immense overflow damage, the lizardmen were blasted into a cloud of blood mist, as if hit by a cannonball!

The entire room fell silent.

A deathly silence.

The snake woman's smile froze on her face.

Those lackeys who hadn't yet rushed forward remained motionless, as if nailed to the ground.

Kal'tsit's pupils contracted sharply, and her mouth opened into an "O" shape.

Instant kill?

That was done in seconds?

How much damage did that punch cause to shatter the body to this extent?

Liu Nian shook his head.

With a mere 2000 million+ health points, you dare to act tough in front of me.

Liu Nian said to Kal'tsit, "Hey, let's add each other as friends, so I don't accidentally hurt you."

Kal'tsit snapped out of her daze upon hearing this and quickly sent a friend request.

Just kidding, if you encounter such a powerful figure, wouldn't you cling to them like a pendant?

Only after adding Kal'tsit as a friend did I realize that this guy, who looked almost exactly like a human, wasn't human at all; he was a descendant of the dragon gods.

Kal'tsit could tell from that clan name that this person was no ordinary person!

Any race whose name contains words like "god," "dragon," "demon," "saint," or "venerable" is an exceptionally powerful race!

For example, the Divine Bloodline, the Dragonborn, the Demon Bear...

This guy's name has two of those characters, he must be incredibly awesome!

Liu Nian also learned that Kal'tsit was not an ordinary elf, but a Sun Elf.

Similarly, compared to ordinary races, those whose names contain attributes such as sun, moon, fire, ice, etc., are generally stronger.

"Who's next?"

Liu Nian's voice was very calm.

But to the snake-men, it sounded like a death sentence.

"Attack! Attack together!" the snake woman screamed.

The remaining two lackeys and five snake men pounced on Liu Nian at the same time.

Swords, magic, poison, curses—all sorts of attacks rained down.

But these guys had too low health, so Liu Nian didn't bother wasting time stacking steel on them and just stomped his foot!

The earth roared!

The shockwave spread out.

-214.25 million!

The attackers were once again blasted into a cloud of blood mist.

Only then did the snake-woman realize she was afraid.

This guy is terrifyingly strong!

It's not something that can be measured by levels!

They are definitely not someone of her level who can handle them!

"Are you a leader?"

The snake woman exclaimed in surprise.

Leader-level? Although Liu Nian didn't know exactly what it meant, he could roughly guess.

Players in each race include ordinary players, high-level players, and top-level players.

Within the same race, the difference between top players and ordinary players can be greater than the difference between a rooster and a Tyrannosaurus Rex!

The strongest players of each race, such as the top three players on their respective race's combat power ranking, are usually referred to as "leaders".

It means that they are all prominent figures of this race, and when they go out, they usually represent the face of this race.

The strength of a race depends not only on its own power but also on the strength of its top experts!

Without a doubt, the snake woman has encountered a top-tier fighter from a newly ascended race today!

"You...you stay away..." Her voice trembled violently. "My brother...I, Lie Lin, am fifth on the combat power ranking...If you dare kill me, he won't let you get away with it...you..."

"A truly classic statement..."

Bang! !

Liu Nian was too lazy to listen to her nonsense and directly blasted her into a cloud of blood mist with a Shadow Strike.

What? Being fifth on the power rankings? Is that so impressive?

Kal'tsit looked at Liu Nian, still in a daze.

One punch, one kick, and seven of the eight enemies were dead...

She didn't even see how the other one died...

She watched Liu Nian's retreating figure—this level 104 guy was putting the last piece of Snakeman equipment he'd gotten into his inventory...

Liu Nian turned around and walked back to Kal'tsit's side.

Kal'tsit was still standing there, her mouth agape, her eyes wide like saucers, as if she had been paralyzed by acupuncture.

Liu Nian waved in front of her.

"Feed".

Kal'tsit snapped out of her daze.

She looked at Liu Nian, then at the corpses scattered on the ground, then back at Liu Nian, then back at the corpses scattered on the ground—

"You you you you you—"

Liu Nian frowned: "What...what...what happened?"

"You...you...you're level 104?!"

"Um."

"That's an instant kill?!"

"Um."

"Aren't you afraid of retaliation?"

"Um."

Kal'tsit took a deep breath, her chest heaving.

Then she suddenly grabbed Liu Nian's shoulder, her eyes flashing with an alarming light.

"Would you like to join our guild?!"

Liu Nian: ?

"No, wait a minute—" He tried to pull his hand away from hers, but this time it was Kal'tsit's turn not to let go.

"I'm serious!" Kal'tsit exclaimed excitedly, almost incoherently. "Our guild desperately needs someone like you! No, our faction desperately needs a monster like you! No, I mean a powerful being! You're too strong! Like a god of war!"

"I have a guild."

"Your guild within your own region doesn't count here. I'm talking about guilds with players of multiple races across different regions!"

Liu Nian remained silent for a few seconds.

"Let go first."

"I won't let go! You have to promise me first!"

"..."

Liu Nian was held by the hand by the green-haired elf as she talked incessantly about how good their faction was, how high the benefits were, and how beautiful the girls were.

How could Liu Nian possibly agree to that?

Are you kidding me? I'm the leader of the Dragonborn, with tens of thousands of brothers behind me. What would it look like if I joined you? Are you expecting me to play dumb and take advantage of you...?

Simply put, your temple is too small to contain such a great deity as me.

However, since he was new here, there were many things he didn't understand, and Kal'tsit could be his mentor.

So he didn't agree immediately, only saying he'd think about it. However, he did promise Kal'tsit he'd visit their guild later, which was how he managed to smooth things over.

"Um..." Kal'tsit cleared her throat, "You really aren't planning on running away? Riftscale is fifth on the power rankings. His sister is dead, and given the vengeful nature of the snake people, there's no way he won't seek revenge on you!"

"Then let's wait for him to come knocking on our door," Liu Nian said indifferently.

So what if he's level 199? Didn't he use the Lava Giant as a training dummy to farm it?

Kal'tsit opened her mouth, only to find herself speechless.

This person is either a fool or genuinely confident.

Judging from what just happened... it seems quite possible that it is the latter.

"Alright," she gave up trying to persuade her, "So where are you planning to go next? You can't just stand there waiting in the wilderness, can you?"

Liu Nian looked around.

A desolate wasteland, scattered rocks, and in the distance, a dark purple forest.

He knew nothing about this place.

Do you have any recommendations?

Kal'tsit's eyes lit up: "Of course—Ovitan! One of the four major cities, the gathering place of humanoid races, it's not too far from here. If you don't know the way, I can take you there!"

"Is there a fee?" Liu Nian asked.

"..." Kal'tsit choked for a moment, "No, no! You've done me a huge favor, so I can be your free guide!"

Liu Nian nodded: "Then let's go."

As they walked, Kal'tsit began to introduce him to the world.
