Online Game: Low Drop Rate? I Have a Guaranteed Drop System!-Chapter 22: The Unknown Player, Lina of the Apocalypse Group
Chapter 22 - 22: The Unknown Player, Lina of the Apocalypse Group
At this moment, Johnnie arrived at the werewolf territory. Here, there were werewolves of Stage 1, Level 8, and they were quite powerful.
He had now upgraded to Stage 1, Level 5, which was sufficient for him to deal with the Stage 1, Level 8 werewolves.
He decided to quickly upgrade to Stage 1, Level 10 and leave the novice village.
"Owwooo!"
In the dark mountain forest, the melodious howls of wolves echoed.
Under the cover of night, the werewolves were even more powerful, but he wasn't afraid at all.
Soon, he spotted a werewolf and launched an attack first.
The cold light of his long sword flashed, and he executed the Sword Shock skill. Three sword auras arrived in an instant and successively struck the werewolf.
Puff...
Blood spattered, and the damage numbers flashed.
-22
-21
-22
His current attack power was enough to deal over 20 points of damage to the werewolf. The werewolf had approximately 400 hit points, and he could handle it easily.
"Owwooo!"
The werewolf let out a pained roar, its scarlet eyes fixed on Johnnie, and it brought down its big knife fiercely.
Puff!
-55
This guy's attack could only deal a little over fifty points of damage. As long as he wasn't surrounded by a large number of werewolves, it posed no real threat to him.
"Hmph, that's all it is." he took a step back, dodging the werewolf's next attack. The cold light flashed, and he executed the Sword Shock skill again.
-23
-21
...
This time, he directly triggered four attacks and had no trouble dealing with this werewolf.
"Owwooo!"
Soon, the werewolf let out a roar of unwillingness and fell into a pool of blood, easily slain by him.
[Killed a Stage 1, Level 8 werewolf, gained 8 experience points]
The werewolf's level was 3 levels higher than his, and the experience points he gained were also significantly increased.
He took a look at the equipment dropped by the werewolf, a gray long knife, then put it away and continued to search for lone werewolves in the mountain forest.
[Ding, an unknown player has applied to add you as a friend]
Suddenly, a prompt message flashed.
"Hmm? What's going on? Didn't I reject all friend requests from players?" He looked puzzled.
And this was an unknown player?
In the game world of Horizon, players' real information was bound, and there was no way to hide it.
This was the first time he had encountered such a situation.
After hesitating for a moment, he accepted the other party's request.
The friend list still showed an unknown player, and the ID of this person wasn't displayed.
Ding!
A private chat notification sounded, and the person sent him a private message.
Unknown Player: "Hello, are you from Dragon Country?"
What did that mean?
He couldn't help frowning. Could it be a force trying to recruit him? But it couldn't be that they couldn't even find out his identity information, right?
After hesitating for a moment, he still replied to the other party.
Johnnie: "Yes. Who are you?"
Unknown Player: "Hello, my name is Lina. I'm also from Dragon Country. I can't reveal the specific information. I know some secret information, and we can make a deal."
Lina?
Johnnie widened his eyes. He knew this person, and she was quite famous in his previous life.
However, he wasn't sure if it was just someone with the same name and surname, or the very same person.
He edited another message.
Johnnie: "Professor Lina of the Department of Life Research in the Apocalypse Group?"
Unknown Player: "Huh? You know me? Who are you? Are you also from the Apocalypse Group?"
The reply came quickly from the other side, and the words revealed a sense of vigilance and apprehension.
It really was her!
Johnnie was surprised.
Lina, an overseas student from Dragon Country, was a specially recruited professor of life research in the Apocalypse Group. She had a deep understanding of life research. It was said that she had discovered the secret of immortality from the game Horizon.
Moreover, in his previous life, it was this woman who had discovered the conspiracy of the Apocalypse Group, which aimed to enslave all of humanity through Horizon.
Lina had risked her life to expose the true nature of the Apocalypse Group and Horizon.
But at that time, it was only the middle stage of the game. Although it caused a stir, it wasn't taken seriously. It was easily suppressed by the Apocalypse Group, and the woman disappeared without a trace.
He guessed that she had been secretly murdered by the Apocalypse Group.
He replied to the other party.
Johnnie: "I'm not from the Apocalypse Group. But like you, I know the conspiracy of the Apocalypse Group and the secret of Horizon."
Unknown Player: "???"
Unknown Player: "Who on earth are you?"
Johnnie: "Tell me, what kind of deal do you want to make?"
He didn't answer the other party's question and was filled with doubts in his heart.
Could it be that this woman had found him because she wanted him to reveal the conspiracy of the Apocalypse Group?
He wouldn't do that.
He didn't have the ability to protect himself now. If he revealed this matter, he would definitely be targeted by the Apocalypse Group and would surely die.
Moreover, it was only the early stage of the game now. Even if he revealed it, it wouldn't attract the attention of those in power.
Unknown Player: "Can I trust you?"
Johnnie looked at the message she sent and smiled faintly.
It was obvious that this woman didn't trust him.
Johnnie: "Do you have any other choices? I think your current situation isn't good. Maybe I can really help you."
After a moment of silence, the other side replied, "The power in the game Horizon can be extracted into the real world."
Johnnie: "I know. Go on."
Unknown Player: "I'll help you materialize the abilities in the game into the real world, and you rescue me."
Materialize the game abilities?
Johnnie frowned. Didn't one need to break through the Divine Stage, or have Horizon connected to Earth with a large number of alien monsters invading before this could be done?
Johnnie: "What do you mean? Isn't it only possible after breaking through the Divine Stage? Do you have a way to materialize the game abilities in advance?"
Unknown Player: "You even know this?"
Lina was shocked. She now seriously suspected that Johnnie was a high-Stageing member of the Apocalypse Group.
Otherwise, it was impossible for him to have increased his strength so quickly.
These pieces of information were only known to the high-Stageing members of the Apocalypse Group.
Johnnie: "Don't worry. I'm not from the Apocalypse Group. Otherwise, I would have already taken action against you by now."
Lina looked at the message he sent and pondered for a long time. Still, she didn't dare to believe it easily.
But just as Johnnie had said, she had no other choices now.
Unknown Player: "All right, I'll trust you this once. In Horizon, apart from reaching the Divine Stage, obtaining the Fossil of Creation can also materialize the in-game abilities in advance in the real world."
Fossil of Creation?
He had heard of this thing, but it was only discovered after the large-scale invasion of alien monsters. At that time, the players' in-game abilities had already been materialized in the real world, and the special nature of the Fossil of Creation hadn't been discovered.
He never expected that this thing could actually materialize the in-game abilities in the real world in advance.
This woman was really something.
Johnnie: "This thing is only owned by the descendants of the gods, right? Those guys are all powerhouses above Stage 7. I haven't even left the novice village yet. Do you think I'm a match for a Stage 7 powerhouse?"
Unknown Player: "That's true. But there's an exception. I've found out that a Fossil of Creation is hidden in Novice Village No. 001, which is prepared for the boss of the Apocalypse Group. You must get it before the boss of the Apocalypse Group does."
Novice Village No. 1?
Johnnie frowned and replied, "No way. I'm in Novice Village No. 103 and I can't enter Novice Village No. 001 at all."
The novice villages aren't interconnected, and players can't return to the novice village even after they reach Stage 1, Level 10 and leave the novice village.
Unknown Player: "Find a way. Also, do you really think this is just a game? Rules are only meant to bind the weak."
Johnnie looked at the message she sent and it seemed quite reasonable.
But how could he enter another novice village?
Unknown Player: "I can't stay online for a long time. This login crystal is a replica I made. It can only get me into the game lobby. I'm being monitored now and can't maintain the same posture for too long. I'm logging off now and will contact you at this time tomorrow."
Before Johnnie could react, her nickname had turned gray and she logged off.
"Damn, so hasty?" He frowned. Lina had given him too little information. He only knew that there was a Fossil of Creation in Novice Village No. 001, but there was not the slightest bit of information on how to find it.
This 𝓬ontent is taken from freeweɓnovel.cѳm.
"First, upgrade to Stage 1, Level 10 and ask the old village chief if there's a way to enter other novice villages." he said to himself. This matter wasn't urgent.
Moreover, Lina was at the headquarters of the Apocalypse Group. Since she had found him, it meant that the video of today's battle had already reached the Apocalypse Group company and had even caught their attention.
He had to enhance his strength as soon as possible, otherwise, he might be in danger.
Owwooo...
In the deep mountain forest, the howls of wolves echoed.
Johnnie continued to slaughter these werewolves to level up.
...
[Killed a Stage 1, Level 8 werewolf, gained 4 experience points]
[Your level has been upgraded to Stage 1, Level 7. All four basic attributes +1, free attribute points +2]
The prompt message flashed.
"Finally upgraded to Stage 1, Level 7." Johnnie said with a tired expression. In one night, he had hunted more than two hundred werewolves and successfully upgraded to Stage 1, Level 7.
He had obtained a lot of equipment again, including two pieces of green equipment with good attributes.
As for those gray and white pieces of equipment, he still handed them all over to Cox and the others to deal with.
Ding!
At this moment, his private chat notification sounded. It was Crysic.
Crysic: "Johnnie, I've completed the quest and transferred to a Blazing Mage. Johnnie, is there any reward?"
