Poverty makes me capable of anything.

This is a super online game with the same name and theme as the game Anran previously registered, but it is on a completely different level in terms of technology.

In the real world, although it has not been officially released yet, "Night of the Stars" has already caused a huge stir around the world after undergoing two closed beta tests. Its popularity is unprecedented, and the attention it has attracted has even led to a ceasefire between two small countries.

This is a groundbreaking online game that utilizes countless new technologies. The interstellar map has no boundaries, there are countless development paths, and the interstellar era is completely realistic. The game's time scale is 10:1 compared to reality. Any one of these features is enough to drive people crazy.

This is humanity's second world!

Just ten days ago, [Night of the Stars] announced that it would officially launch its open beta in half a month, and a new era was finally about to begin.

The starry sky, a journey that countless people yearn for.

It is hope, it is dreams, it is freedom, it is longing, it is milk—

clap clap clap!

Cheating!

An Ran struggled and slapped the floor a few times. What did these tempting slogans have to do with her? You have to know that she was not a player, but a native, an NPC, an NPC with only one life.

More importantly, she is an NPC from the evil faction, and a notorious BOSS.

What are the bosses in the game for? Need I say more?

Of course, they're for killing and farming.

High-risk profession, that's what we're talking about in games, the BOSS.

If things proceed as the plot suggests, the villain's fate seems to be sealed.

Being a loser is inevitable.

However, in the completely open-world 【Night of the Stars】, the BOSS's fate is not necessarily that of a cheater. He/she may be able to make a deal with the player to gain a chance to survive, or he/she may be able to hide and become unfinishable by the player.

I have money, a boat, and men. How can I just sit here and wait to die? Kill... that damn chicken.

Let's find a place to hide first!

Anran made a decision immediately.

Villainous BOSS? I can't do that job.

The salted fish, having found hope, flipped itself up and stood up.

"Countdown of one minute begins now: 59, 58, 57..."

Suddenly, a notification sound rang out beside her. An Ran looked around in confusion. One minute countdown. What was going on? Was the spaceship about to explode?

Before she knew it, an attribute panel appeared in front of her.

Age: 22 years old

Race: Terran

Gender: Female

Level: 150

Main Classes: Star Pirate Lv150, Artillery Expert Lv99, Gale Swordsman Lv128, Storm Mage Lv128...

Chapter 02 The Boss Who Lives in the Trailer

What's it like to be given a max-level account at the start of an online game?

Anran hasn't experienced it yet, but it's definitely a great experience!

"The reason I'm only level 150 is because the level cap for the 1.01 version of the [Night of the Stars] open beta is 150!"

It's quite a unique experience to feel like a top student looking down on the academic geniuses.

The information recorded on the panel was so dense that it made An Ran dizzy. She lost patience and could only come to one conclusion.

"I'm fucking strong!"

Look at those powerful professions listed in several rows.

Look at all those skills, they're as numerous as hairs on a cow.

Look at that bright orange outfit.

Look at those shockingly high attribute points.

Enough said, it's simply awesome!

It's a pity it's a girl!

Damn it.

Anran, feeling relieved, hurriedly walked out of the room. She wanted to send a message first and find a place to hide and observe before making any further moves.

No matter how strong it is, it can't withstand the swarm of players that come like locusts.

An Ran didn't want to be hammered flat.

"Chris, please close the door."

Pushing open the door, An Ran strode out in a flurry, not forgetting to call out to Chris, the artificial intelligence idiot on the spaceship (an artificial intelligence idiot who can only obey orders), who is depicted as a little girl the size of a palm.

An Ran is gradually integrating into this identity.

Juliana, the captain of the guards she had just sent away, was standing at the turn of the corridor, dressed in a white guard uniform, standing ramrod straight, with the magnificent scenery on the towering peaks.

But An Ran remained unmoved; she was an upright person!

“Princess!” Juliana called out respectfully.

An Ran was still not used to the sudden change in her identity, so she walked past Juliana with a tense face and her head held high.

First, go to the control room to check the star map, find a hiding place, and then go to the floating yacht cabin to prepare for escape. This plan is simple and brutal!

As for the main ship, let whoever wants it take it; An Ran doesn't care at all.

"Ten, nine, eight..."

Ok?

The countdown alarm in my ears suddenly became enthusiastic and energetic, like doing radio calisthenics, full of youthful vigor and even a touch of joy.

What the hell?

Anran turned around and asked, "Juliana, did you hear the countdown?"

“Reporting to Your Highness, no!” Juliana shouted.

Her conscientious work attitude made An Ran sigh. Such a cute girl, whose whole body exuded the four words "uniform temptation", was actually a notorious pirate.

The game designers really understand players!

"Three, two, one, countdown over. The trailer's storyline is officially beginning!"

The gentle female voice finally stopped, but An Ran didn't relax at all; on the contrary, she was completely bewildered by the voice.

Narrator?

The trailer shows the plot just beginning. What does that mean?

The plot of the game trailer...

While An Ran was still wondering, a loud alarm suddenly sounded in the corridor, and the flashing red lights made An Ran's heart skip a beat. Could it be that the spaceship was about to crash?

The dutiful captain, Juliana, suddenly received a call from the control room.

A scene from the control room popped up in the void. A girl who looked like a pilot said anxiously, "Captain Juliana, the detectors have detected three small aircraft approaching us at an extremely high speed. We expect to encounter them in one minute. They have ignored our interrogation signals, and the Level 1 Armed Defense System has been activated. Please report this situation to Her Highness the Princess!"

"Princess?"

Juliana turned to look at Anran, who was about to slip away quietly.

Want to fight?

Juliana's eyes burned with a fiery intensity, and she looked eager to try.

"Your Highness!"

The driver on the virtual screen also saw An Ranli and immediately greeted her respectfully.

MMP.

An Ran cursed inwardly. She hadn't even taken any concrete action yet, and the attackers had already come knocking on her door. Sure enough, being a BOSS wasn't so easy.

There's no way to escape now. In that case, let's smash the heads of these clueless crusaders first!

Your sister Anran has a terrible temper; she doesn't let just anyone come to provoke her!

"boom!"

"Boom!"

"Whoosh-"

The spaceship suddenly shook violently.

The female pilot's expression suddenly changed: "The left wing of the spaceship has been attacked by a cluster of particle beams, and the furnace wall of power source number 3 has been damaged."

"Whoosh whoosh—"

The walls of the corridor instantly became transparent, as if cascading water. An Ran was surprised to find herself standing in the void, with her feet on an endless starry sky, surrounded by red, yellow, blue, green, and white celestial bodies.

Incidentally, it also included dozens of particle beams fired from the front.

The explosion was filled with an astonishing sense of artistry.

The void continued to tremble. Despite activating the first-level armed defense system, it was still unable to intercept the particle beam attack. However, the spaceship launched a counterattack at this time.

The two sides exchanged fire in the boundless expanse of space.

You fire one shot, I fire two.

You fire two shots, I fire three.

If you fire three times, I'll ram you with my boat.

That's ridiculous!
