Chapter 179: 179
Supernova was a divine skill that got reduced to the Legendary category and it had one of the worst cast times . However, Rina's damage with Supernova was prohibitive, it dealt 1000% fire damage over an area zone .
-200,000!
That's right, an entire area zone . The fire explosion from the sun's collision with the earth covered the entire Fleeting Forest, with not a wisp of heat escaping the 'boundaries' of the area zone .
She had slaughtered every player, since they had less than 20,000 HP on average . With 200,000 damage, Void Fodder and Void Monsters were killed without question .
After the sun landed on the ground, only 8 players were left standing .
Only the Void Killers and Void Destroyers remained, though their numbers had been largely reduced by Draco, Riveting Night and the core members of the Four Guilds before they had died .
Rina gained so much experience that she rose to level 50 in one go and even had some leftover . The sheer number of monsters she killed with her single AOE was in the thousands .
She didn't gain anything from killing players in terms of experience, but the system had something else for her in store .
「System to Player Announcement
Player Lusty Wench, congratulations for having killed over 30 million players with one attack! You have gained the title: Queen of Death!」
「Queen of Death – Special Rank
All damage +100%
5% chance to reset all cooldowns when an enemy is killed by your attack
500% damage during PVP」
Rina was shocked by this sudden announcement . She an inkling of an idea about the prowess of titles thanks to Riveting Night's teachings . However, she had no idea the effects were so overpowered .
Were all titles in the game like this?
Draco sent her a private message . "Place all the experience you gained into Flamesear and reduce yourself to level 30, 0% . Then, assist Eva and I with culling the remaining void monsters . Remember, place every single bit of experience you gain from here on into Flamesear until its full . - Draco"
Rina complied with Draco's words unconditionally . She reduced herself to level 30, 0% . Currently, Flamesear received 6,097% of 100,000%, which was a scary amount when one considered the fact that Rina gained 60 levels from one AOE attack .
Gentle Flower, Noble Soul, Sublime Notion, Rina and Fitter Cleric shared a look and went over to support the Evil Duo . Only Dreary Traveler stood in place, because he didn't need to go forward .
"Rise . "
The corpses of all the surrounding slain players rose from the earth, armed with trash-tier versions of whatever weapons they had used .
Dreary Traveler possessed the Hidden class, Necromancer . Necromancers were able to raise the dead and use the corpses of their enemies as their own soldiers .
Even though players, NPCs, and monsters - apart from Field Bosses - turned to pixels upon death, the location they died on was treated as a 'burial site' .
The very first skill any Necromancer would automatically be granted upon receiving this class was Death Vision which allowed them to see those burial sites, to raise the dead from below .
It barely cost him anything to raise the weakest version of the undead, which were skeleton soldiers . The higher the Rank Dreary Traveler wanted to summon, the more mana it would cost and the more it would put pressure on his mind to control them .
He could only raise 30,000 skeleton soldiers at the moment, and they had been the reason the five remaining members of the Four Guilds had survived so long .
Dreary Traveler had been unable to let his army contribute in this fight as frontline fighters . After all, their bodies were weak and their items were trash-tier . Even if they had been - wastefully - imbued with Aether, they would still do almost no damage to the Void Killers or Void Destroyers .
No, Dreary Traveler used them to defend the living members . They acted as bone shields that would dive in the way of an attack meant for a player on his side .
Thanks to that, everyone was able to easily manage the task of cleaning up the last few remnants of the void monster invasion . It took them quite a while, but with Draco and Riveting Night taking the lead, and with Sublime Notion's excellent heals, it wasn't too strenuous .
They naturally formed a party so that experience was shared . Otherwise, people like Sublime and Fitter would have a hard time gaining experience for this melee .
It took them more than 10 more minutes to kill the remaining 20 Void Killers and 5 Void Destroyers . Since Rina's Supernova had already destroyed the portable portal, it meant that the invasion had been resolved .
「Event Zone Announcement
All players, congratulations on completing: Void Monster Infestation Emergency Quest
Time elapsed: 00:48:42
Assessment: SS+
Reward:
1000 reputation with Sturgehaven Kingdom
2000 reputation with all races
3,000% experience
5000 gold
3 Epic Treasure Chests」
The system rewarded them for how they had cleared the quest . The rewards were many times better than what it should've been there, so let's run through the process of assessment the AI made .
The Emergency Quest had three methods of completion . The minimum requirement was to survive for one hour . One could choose to fight until that one hour ended which was the recommended method of completion .
The best method of completion would be to destroy the portal and clear out the remaining monsters before the timer ran out .
This was assumed to be impossible for current players, but when you had two reincarnators like Draco and Riveting Night, predictions and assumptions became useless .
Next was the time it took to complete the quest . It had taken them less than one hour to complete the quest which had a one-hour time limit, so the assessment was boosted by that fact .
All in all, Draco, Riveting Night, Gentle Flower, Noble Soul, Dreary Traveler, Rina, Sublime Notion and Fitter Cleric gained immense rewards .
Putting aside the reputation and gold, three Epic Treasure Chests and 3,000% experience was amazing . It meant that everyone here could challenge the Class Up procedures if they wanted to .
But that wasn't all .
「Event Zone Announcement
All players, congratulations on completing: The First Guild War Sub-Event
Time elapsed: 01:28:42
Assessment: A+
Reward:
70 silver
3 Common Treasure Chest」
Of course, the second one wasn't as great, but it was something . However, the members of the Four Guilds had bet everything they owned on Umbra, and now that Umbra won the Guild War, the profit they made was scary .
Some other clever players had placed bets on Umbra, some wildly and some conservatively, so they would also gain something great after they respawned in 30 minutes, as that was the basic time penalty for Rank 1 players .
「System to Guild Announcement
Guild Umbra has won the First Guild War against Myriad Cards and Lorebinders .
Rewards:
All participants +300% experience
Double Exp boost for 3 days
Event Item - Abyss Key
80 gold paid out from the losers out of a 100 . 」
Draco smiled when he held the Abyss Key in his hand . In the previous timeline, it had been the Rank 7 NPCs who had monopolized it when the crisis had occurred .
Now, he could use this item to profit greatly from the calamitous Abyss Event . As for accessing the Abyssal Trove, he would do that only when the event was about to end .
Destroying the key just to access the trove right now would be a few levels beyond foolish, and Draco would definitely try his hardest to avoid that .
As the eight of them stood around each other, with tired but excited looks on their faces, Draco smiled .
"I think we should all open our chests . It would be best to do so now, when there is no one around to disturb us, don't you think?"
His suggestion was met with approval from the rest . First of all, they weren't like the Evil Duo who had owned many Epic items in their past lives . After getting a taste for Legendary Items, both of them could hold out in the face of possible Epics .
When a normal gamer got presented with loot, they opened such loot . It was unrealistic to expect a true gamer to put loot aside like the way Draco or Riveting Night did .
As such, the Fleeting Forest was lit up with bright lights as many Epic Treasure Chests were opened!
However, the faces of the ones opening them were black, except Fitter Cleric . Out of three Epic Chests, they each only got one Epic item and two Rares, while Fitter Cleric naturally scored a perfect hat trick .
All of the Epic items they received were the growth type, which was what Draco expected . The AI prioritized balance overall, but it still could not deny rewards .
It was possible that they could even have gotten three Rare items, because not everyone invested points into luck and the base chance of getting an Epic item was only 30% .
However, all of them had received too much experience and the system needed to maintain balance organically, so one of the chests was set to be a growth type item each .
