Poverty makes me capable of anything.

You could have called for others to charge forward while you ambushed people from behind; risking your life at the front isn't fun.

"I'll give it a try. If I can't beat them, I'll run away."

"If all else fails, I'll give you Ether City and Azure City for now, and I'll come back and kill you all once I've leveled up."

An Ran made up her mind.

But we can't let our momentum falter!

Let's cut down all these obstacles in front of us first.

"Ella, you don't need to lift a finger, leave all of this to me."

He casually tossed Su Tingxue onto the Night Messenger's shoulder.

With an energy greatsword in hand, An Ran didn't need any fancy moves; a horizontal slash shattered all the dozen or so Kanti in front of her.

427 million in experience points received.

Although it was less than a tenth of the Duke of Canty's, it came faster.

As long as there are enough Kanti, Anran can keep fighting until he becomes a master-level expert.

The Sword God of Shili Slope?

Me too!

However, Kanti is considered an elite monster, so how many of them can there be?

"Holy crap—"

"Wocao".

Most of the time, players just say "Holy crap!" and that's all they need to know.

You can use this line when you see a good-looking NPC, and you can also use it when you see a powerful NPC.

boom!

A sword strike that falls from the sky!

The raging energy sword instantly cleaved a trench more than ten meters deep in the ground. Several Kanti that hadn't managed to dodge in time were shattered into dust and mixed into the soil, which would predictably become fertilizer.

"Get out of the way!"

"Shark Bee Spicy! Help!"

Anran Shark Honey!

With a flick of the greatsword, it swept straight over a player's head, severing half of his hair. Fortunately, the energy sword had a good converging effect; otherwise, such a shockwave would have sent him back to the fountain.

No matter how much Kanti jumped around, he was no match for Anran's sword.

All that could be seen was the gleaming blade slashing through the air, leaving countless afterimages.

The valiant Silvermoon Knight strode with elegant steps.

The players who had been torturing the players to the point of near death were quickly turned into minced meat.

The sticky mess piled up all over the ground, with the earth as its chopping board. The prelude to this feast was somewhat bloody and nauseating.

"How terrifying!" The female player cried out in fear.

The male player was dumbfounded.

The power of the mechs is truly terrifying!

hiss~

Take a breath.

I'm bowing down to the time-traveling world.

They fought for over twenty minutes until their numbers dwindled, while the enemy wiped out the roaming Kanti in just two minutes.

The gap between players and NPCs is just too big.

When will a normal player be able to pilot such a mech?

"Who is this person who came this time? Could it be ANR?"

"What? My wife's here?"

"Damn it, you don't even know if she's your wife or not. Looks like you've been cheated on."

"..."

With 7600 million experience points, plus over 6000 million from Duke Kanti and 3000 million from mission rewards, Anran's experience reserves have surged again.

That was so awesome!

An Ran casually put a mission hat on her head.

Players, your quest giver is here.

"We have a mission!"

Someone pointed to the top of the Silver Moon Knight's head, and then the player next to him rushed to An Ran's side.

"Damn it, you beast, you run so fast."

Mission Summary: ...Go, spread the evil of the Holy Church! We must not let these traitors of humanity bring disaster upon us! Above us, besides the blue sky and white clouds, is only the air we can breathe freely.

Fighting the Void is everyone's responsibility!

This is a task to spread a message.

The reward for the task is determined by the extent to which the message spreads and the attention it receives.

The message is that the Hundred Wood Pirates are just a front; the real target is the Holy Church.

Several players committed suicide on the spot and returned to the fountain.

"..."

Oh, what a waste!

An Ran looked at the greatsword in her hand with a bit of frustration, really wanting to cut all these players back with one strike.

But she had no excuse to make a move.

Alright, you guys should just go back to your deaths already. This kind of separation of life and death is really heartbreaking to watch.

Then, An Ran looked at the metal monument.

She didn't really know how to break the seal, but this was a complete stele, so she would study it first.

Chapter 35 Song of the Old World (Part Two)

"Something terrible has happened! Something terrible has happened!" Urgent shouts suddenly rang out on the bustling street.

Pedestrians on the street turned to look at the sound. Even the bus that was flying through the sky slowed down, as if wanting to know what kind of excitement was in store.

"What happened?"

A curious passerby asked loudly.

Tan Ying, who had just received the notification and rushed back from outside, immediately perked up her ears.

The large strides that used to be taken have turned into small, quick steps, like when taking a stroll.

His gaze fell upon the stranger who was being watched by countless eyes.

"Disaster is imminent! Nagoria is about to be destroyed!"

The player who spoke immediately dropped a shocking piece of news.

He was one of the players who had accepted the Enron mission earlier, and in order to gain experience, he had to use this sensationalist title to attract other people's attention.

Unable to reach the higher-ups, they can only target ordinary people.

"Naglia is doomed, what nonsense are you spouting?"

"Tch, I thought it was something big, but it's just another piece of fake news."

"I think he's going to talk about the Kuroshio thing next; I'm so tired of hearing about it."

The player quickly shouted, "What I'm about to say concerns Paradise, the Void, and the Holy Order!"

The second step is to throw out attractive keywords.

Tan Ying wasn't sure if it attracted anyone else, but he was certainly drawn to it because of the words "Sacred Way".

The Vatican had recently made a secret deal with the Holy See, and he was summoned back this time because an investigation team sent by the Empire came to his door.

No one knows what the Empire is investigating yet, but it's already a dark cloud hanging over the place.

"The Void is sealed deep within Paradise... but now the madmen of the Holy Church are trying to release this monster... even the Imperial Royal Knights are no match for the Void, and then Nagria will truly be in grave danger..."

The player recounted the story he had heard from Anran with great emotion.

Normally, people would find it hard to believe what he said.

However, it has a 3D projection.

Strange celestial phenomena, fierce battles, monsters rampaging through the player base, and the arrogant members of the Hundred Wood Pirates.

It's no longer surprising to see natural portals connecting many planets in the North.

This comparison does indeed convey a greater degree of trust.

"The Holy Church is now manipulating the Hundred Wood Pirate Gang from behind the scenes. The Hundred Wood Pirate Gang has become the Holy Church's lackeys!"

If this is true...

A small number of people felt a sense of panic.

"This kind of matter must be resolved by the Governor's Office!"

"I've read the records of the Void. Although the details aren't very clear, the word that appears most frequently throughout the entire text is 'terrifying'!"

twitter--

Tan Ying left the bustling place with a stiff face.

He saw the metal monument in the player's projection; the runes on it were all too familiar to him.
