Online Game: Start as a Godslayer, Get Stronger by Killing Monsters

"I've been reborn?"

Lin Ye suddenly opened his eyes.

The dazzling sunlight streamed into the bedroom through the floor-to-ceiling windows.

The air was filled with the rich aroma of fermented wine.

In the distance, rows of grapevines swayed gently in the breeze.

This is Bordeaux, France, and also his private winery.

But at this moment, Lin Ye stared blankly at his own hands.

His eyes were filled with disbelief.

Just moments ago, he was standing at the edge of the battlefield in the realm of gods.

Divine fires blazed across the sky, while countless evil spirits blotted out the sun.

He gripped the broken longsword and unleashed a final blow at the supreme deity seated high on the throne.

Finally, they perished together...

Then, Lin Ye grabbed the phone.

The date displayed is July 1, 2035.

At 9:00 AM, there were 24 hours left until the global launch of "Gods Realm".

Upon seeing this date, Lin Ye suddenly smiled.

As I laughed, my eyes started to redden.

They're back. They're really back.

Apart from Lin Ye, no one knows what the launch of "God Realm" tomorrow means.

In people's eyes, it was just a groundbreaking virtual reality game with a near-realistic sensory experience and an incredibly vast worldview.

But just one hundred days after the server opened, the game arrived, and the gods appeared in the world!

Overnight, the city fell and order collapsed.

The once prosperous blue planet has been transformed into a living hell, with billions of people dying in the disaster.

And he, Lin Ye.

A person who has never played games has not inherited any professional talent.

Yet they managed to carve a path through the mountains of corpses and seas of blood.

Countless betrayals, countless brushes with death!

Ultimately, they reached the pinnacle of human achievement.

Unfortunately, victory was just one step away...

"Um?"

The memory was interrupted, and a black light suddenly emerged from his chest.

Lin Ye looked down and his pupils suddenly contracted.

It was a black fragment about the size of a thumb.

Its surface is covered with ancient divine patterns, exuding a chilling aura.

"Fragments of the divine realm's origin?"

His breath hitched.

The origin of the divine realm was the very thing he had personally destroyed in the final battle of his previous life.

But why did a fragment come back with me?

Before he could examine it carefully...

The winery gate was suddenly pushed open.

The sound of high heels clicking on the ground came from behind.

A familiar figure walked into the living room.

The woman was tall.

The white long dress accentuated her slender waist.

She was quite pretty, but there was always a hint of meanness and calculation hidden deep in her eyes.

Upon seeing the person approaching, Lin Ye clenched his fists.

A cold, murderous intent flashed in his eyes.

"snort."

Su Qingxue crossed her arms, glanced at the wine bottles on the table, and said with dissatisfaction, "I've only ignored you for a few days, do you really need to get yourself this drunk?"

She didn't even notice the unusual look in Lin Ye's eyes, but instead sat down on the sofa and continued talking to herself:

"Alright, your childhood friend Chen Ziang and I have already arranged a buyer. They're willing to pay 20 million to acquire the winery and vineyards. Just transfer the money to me, and that'll be the end of it."

At this point, she added another sentence.

"Also, I really have nothing to do with Chen Ziang, so stop overthinking things."

Lin Ye didn't speak, but instead laughed, not with joy, but with sarcasm.

In his previous life, the last remaining humans lived on an island. He, as the strongest, guarded the abyss alone, shielding countless people from calamities.

Ultimately, however, the enemy accurately discovered his secret of lacking fire resistance.

The scorching flames engulfed everything; if it weren't for the beauty's desperate rescue, how could he have survived?

But he didn't find out until later.

All of this was a scheme orchestrated by the woman in front of us.

The reason was simply that she wanted to be with Chen Ziang openly and honestly.

Thinking about this...

Lin Ye laughed even more exaggeratedly, to the point of being somewhat manic.

Since Heaven has given him a second chance at life.

There are some scores that need to be settled.

And just then...

Footsteps sounded again outside the door.

A familiar figure led several men in suits into the winery.

It's Chen Zi'ang.

Compared to Lin Ye now, lying on the sofa with messy hair and a listless appearance.

Chen Ziang, dressed in a suit and tie, looked exceptionally spirited.

Especially when he saw Lin Ye, a hint of smugness flashed in his eyes, and then he pretended to be concerned and said, "Old Lin, you've finally agreed to be seen. Qingxue and I were so worried."

After she finished speaking, Su Qingxue blushed slightly and nodded in agreement.

Lin Ye took in all of this, and couldn't help but sneer inwardly.

In my past life, I actually believed those two scoundrels.

"Ahem, Mr. Lin!"

The men in suits stepped forward, and the middle-aged man in the lead spoke first: "Mr. Lin, we have inspected your vineyard, and the quality is excellent. We intend to develop it into a select winery. We can even raise the price to 2500 million, provided that this batch of grapes is successfully cultivated."

Su Qingxue's eyes lit up immediately, and Chen Ziang's face also showed joy.

Twenty-five million has exceeded their expectations.

"Lin Ye, did you hear that? They're willing to offer 25 million! What are you still hesitating for?"

Su Qingxue urged him hurriedly.

Lin Ye, however, remained silent.

Until everyone started to get a little impatient.

He suddenly looked at Chen Zi'ang.

"Shall we meet up and talk?"

After saying that, without waiting for Chen Ziang's reply, Lin Ye got up and walked out of the villa.

Chen Ziang paused for a moment, then followed Lin Ye out of the villa.

They continued until they reached the edge of the vineyard, making sure no one was around.

Lin Ye slowly said, "I'll sell the winery."

Chen Ziang immediately smiled.

But the next second, Lin Ye's words stunned him.

"But I'm not selling it to them, I'm selling it to you."

Chen Zi'ang asked in confusion, "What do you mean?"

"It's very simple," Lin Ye said calmly. "I'll transfer the winery and vineyards to you for fifteen million. Then you can sell them back to them yourself."

Chen Ziang's breathing became rapid instantly.

With just one transaction, they can make tens of millions in profit.

Where can you find such a good deal?

But soon, he became wary again.

Why did you do that?

Lin Ye remained silent for a moment, then revealed a bitter smile full of meaning.

"Hehe... Why else? Because of Qingxue. Aren't you two good friends? Find a chance to say a few good words for me."

Chen Ziang was taken aback at first, then almost burst out laughing.

It turned out to be the case.

What a hopeless simp!

He was willing to give up tens of millions just to please a woman.

And the woman you couldn't win over even with millions of dollars, hehe...

"Sure, Lao Lin, I'll take care of it! I'll definitely try to persuade Qingxue for you in the future."

Chen Ziang agreed without hesitation, fearing that Lin Ye might change his mind.

The two quickly signed an electronic transfer agreement and completed the formalities.

When Chen Ziang saw that he had become the owner of the winery, his hands were trembling with excitement.

But Lin Ye just watched quietly, a faint smile appearing on his lips.

Having been reborn, he knew that in another half month...

An unprecedented fungal epidemic will sweep across the entire Bordeaux region, leaving countless vineyards with no harvest.

And in that acquisition agreement...

The most important thing is to ensure that the entire batch of grapes is delivered on time.

Otherwise, the compensation would be as high as 50 million.

Even Lin Ye in his previous life had a headache over this matter, let alone Chen Ziang, that parasite who only knew how to suck blood from others.

The two returned to the villa together.

Su Qingxue immediately came forward and asked, "How did it go? Did you reach an agreement?"

Chen Zi'ang beamed with pride and said, "Of course, this winery is mine from now on!"

"Huh?" Su Qingxue was stunned.

Lin Ye explained casually, "I'm planning to go back to China to develop my career, so there's no point in keeping the winery. I might as well sell it to him."

Upon hearing the words "returning to China," Su Qingxue's eyes lit up, and she asked, "What about these buyers?"

Lin Ye gave her a meaningful look and smiled, "Haven't you always been good at business? You could stay and help out. Maybe you can even get a share of the profits."

Upon hearing this...

Su Qingxue's breathing quickened; she understood, of course, what this meant.

If managed well, the price difference alone can earn millions, or even more...

"Don't worry about it, leave it to me!" Su Qingxue glanced excitedly at Chen Ziang, then quickly looked away.

Seeing the two of them unable to contain their excitement.

Lin Ye remained completely unmoved.

What I owed him in my past life, I will slowly repay in this life.

A few hours later, at a private airport.

The silver-white Gulfstream aircraft slowly taxied off the runway.

Through the porthole, Lin Ye looked down at the winery, which was getting further and further away.

He then looked away.

He still had many things to do before the gods descended.

Money, resources, equipment.

Every step is crucial.

Most importantly, those who should not have become the dead.

Thinking of this, Lin Ye took out his phone.

Dial a private number.

The phone rang a few times.

The call connected, and a clear, pleasant voice came through.

"What's up?"

The voice was still the same as I remembered, as cold as ice.

Lin Ye's lips curled up slightly.

"Please buy me the highest-spec gaming pod, the one for Divinity: The Realm of Gods."

There was a two-second silence on the other end of the phone.

"Lin Ye, when did you become interested in games?"

The woman was clearly somewhat surprised.

Having known him for so many years, she had never seen Lin Ye touch a game.

"just."

Lin Ye said casually.

The person on the other end of the phone seemed speechless for a moment before continuing.

"Is there anything else?"

"have."

Lin Ye looked out the window at the rolling sea of ​​clouds and said softly, "You should come and play too."

This time, the silence on the other end of the phone lasted even longer.

"The reason," the woman finally spoke.

Lin Ye smiled, thought a lot, but ultimately didn't explain, because explaining wouldn't make a difference.

"So you can play with me, okay?"

"......good."
