Translator: Larbre Studio Editor: Larbre Studio

Although it was just a game, there was still real comradery. Looking at the one who died under the sword for him, Chen Ziyu mourned for half a second before he attacked the other ghost soldier.

This was common in the battlefield.

Meanwhile, Li Tianxia, who was fighting together with Wu Guoyi, was grabbing tight onto one Ghost Wolf Rider while shouting to Wu Guoyi,

“Brother, I’ve got him, kill him fast!”

Wu Guoyi was stunned for a few seconds, then he quickly killed the Ghost Wolf Rider with his sword.

While helping Li Tianxia up, Wu Guoyi patted his shoulder, “Brother, your fighting spirit must be the most reckless here in this ancient era!”

Li Tianxia rolled his eyes, “Brother Wu, stop teasing me and keep killing, we shouldn’t let them get away!”

The two then continued to kill more Ghost Wolf Riders.

The players were happily killing while more and more of the Ghost Rider Army died, making them harder to resist.

Feeling no hope of getting through, the Ghost Supreme Commander howled furiously. He then jumped down from his demonic horse, swayed the sword in his hand aggressively and a path appeared before him.

However, before he took his step forward, the path was blocked by the players once again, making the Ghost Supreme Commander unable to move. It was impossible for him to escape.

It was then that a figure suddenly appeared from the side, a blue spark shone as a blue sword cut through the back of the Ghost Supreme Commander.

“Ha!”

While the Ghost Supreme Commander turned around, the aura around him expanded, throwing the sword on his back out.

After he turned and saw the person who attacked him, the Ghost Supervisor’s pupil constricted, “You!”

Wang Damang widened his mouth with a smile, “That’s right, it’s me!”

“How is this possible, you’re supposed to be dead. I killed you myself…”

The Ghost Supreme Commander saw the familiar face earlier already. At first, he thought these creatures had similar faces, but he knew he was wrong when he saw Wang Damang.

The Ghost Supreme Commander felt grave terror all of a sudden, he would never believe that such strange things could happen. Is it true that these creatures cannot be killed? They can even revive themselves.

When the Ghost Supreme Commander showed a sense of fear, all the netizens sneered at once:

“Hahaha, this is the end for the Ghost Supreme Commander, you should tremble as much as you can under the vicious power of the players!”

“[Facepalm] Under the respawning and plugins of the vicious power of the players, the Ghost Supreme Commander is finally in despair!”

“This is so funny, the facial expression of this NPC makes me feel so good, I’ve taken a screenshot of it; preparing to make it into a meme.”

“To the brother above, remember to send me one when you’re done!”

…

Confronting the Ghost Supreme Commander who was terrified, Wang Damang was ready to attack with his dagger.

“Just bring it on! I’m not afraid of death, at worst I’ll have to wait for three hours to respawn, if you’re so great, why don’t you respawn, too?”

“Go to hell!” the Ghost Supreme Commander’s face darkened as he could not bear with the sneering and swung his sword towards Wang Damang.

The furious attack by the Ghost Supreme Commander killed Wang Damang at once, leaving a deep pit on the ground at the same time.

Wang Damang’s death did not affect the players from feeling high. Once again they had surrounded the Ghost Supreme Commander and started to attack in groups as if they were the suicide squad.

The Ghost Supreme Commander could finally feel the horror from the vicious power of the players.

After some time, the Ghost Supreme Commander started to gasp for air, his speed of swinging his sword was decreasing as well.

His determination to fight was becoming lower, he felt helpless thinking of these creatures who called themselves players and could not be killed for real.

The players were becoming increasingly insane when they saw that the Ghost Supreme Commander was going to be defeated soon. All of them started to pounce on him.

“First kill is mine, don’t try to get it!”

“Stop pushing me, at least let me chop once so that I can get some experience points!”

“I feel like this big boss is going to give out high level red equipment, or something even better, shit, whoever gets it will be rich, get out of my way!”

All the players knew very well about the price of soul coins and the value of red ranked equipment. Lots of rich players who spent money in the game would be scrambling to get one, it was easy to get a few million from it.

Thinking of this, all the players had gone mad completely and squeezed beside the Ghost Supreme Commander, trying to touch his body after he was dead.

After the Ghost Rider Army was annihilated, the Ghost Supreme Commander was getting all the attention, which made his resistance more and more useless. The armor he was wearing was starting to crack, too, as it was being hit on continuously.

“Aargh! Get out of my way!”

Before he lost all his strength, a green aura sparked from the Ghost Supreme Commander’s body once again, sending away the players around him.

“How dare you’re still fighting back, just explode!”

“Deathbed struggles, just explode quickly!”

Within a second, the players surrounded him again, followed by countless attacks.

Under such constantly insane attacks, the fire in the eyes of the Ghost Supreme Commander started to shrink before it finally went out.

The moment the Ghost Supreme Commander died, tens of players around him leveled up at the same time. Meanwhile, the power of battle artifacts was switched on, breaking down the body of the Ghost Supreme Commander and three items appeared on the ground.

[Ghost Supreme Dawn Blade (red): the Ghost Supreme Commander’s weapon]

Attributes: Increase Strength by 18 points

Weapon skills: Wind blade (triggered every hour, doubling the damage for long range skills)

Equipment requirements: Warrior character class, Level 30 or above

[Ghost Supreme Body Armour (red, broken)]

Attributes: Increase Defense by 15 points (broken, so the effect is halved)

Equipment skills: Defense aura (broken, cannot be released)

Equipment requirements: Any character class, Level 25 or above

[Magic – Number One Rune: One of the accessories of the Netherworld Rune Device set, can be sold in the shop for 500 soul coins]

The battle artifacts had analyzed the attributes and value of the three items.

Looking at all three items, the gaze of the surrounding players was full of excitement.

…

In the bedroom, Bei Li who had just finished watching this battle with Lu Wu stood up suddenly when she saw the Ghost Supreme Commander give out a blue rune fragment. She looked surprised.

“What happened?” Lu Wu asked.

“Earlier, you said that you want to set a few hidden jobs, right? I think now’s the chance!”

“Huh?” Lu Wu was puzzled as he looked at Bei Li who was overexcited.

“This magic charm was used by the former top magic caster of Beiqi, Yin Jiumo, to produce the materials for special warriors. If we can get this thing, I’m positive that I can help you create the upgrading plan for a new set of rune warriors!”

“How is this thing so powerful?” Lu Wu was astonished.

“Of course, the idea of rune warriors have already been in my mind for a while now. Unfortunately, all this time I didn’t have the real thing to examine. So once we get this thing, I promise I can create a way to transfer a player’s job to a warrior!”

Hearing this, Lu Wu was interested as well, “Tell me about the details of this plan of yours.”

Bei Li nodded, “Rune warriors were the system’s name for a kind of special warriors created by Yin Jiumo, the top spellcaster of Beiqi. His process of forging needed a lot of materials which had to be fused by a forger. It was very complicated, but the warrior ability of the finished product was very terrifying.”

“However, since we have the battle artifact, it will be less troublesome for us. All I need to do is to examine the rune completely and implant the template into the artifact, then a hidden job will be created: The Rune Warrior.”

“Except leveling up, the other cultivation system for this character class is to collect runes. Every rune collected will be able to upgrade the ability of a Rune Warrior by a great deal.”
