"So… do you think they'll be able to survive," GM Albatross asks GM Michigan.
"Uhm, well… if he is able to kill them with his old equipment, won't he level up really fast?"
At first, they weren't going to let the players keep their old equipment. However, GM Albatross looked at his own account he uses in the game, Pixie Lord, so he decided to keep the items in this round of game.
"Hmmm, well, we did up the level cap to level 200… For most people, they won't have equipment like the legendary Thrasher."
Michigan nodded her head. "Yes… wasn't it really cool that we got to meet him?"
Albatross smiles and pulls out a picture they took from the security camera. "Yes, I even have the two of us with him. Look you're holding his hand… However, it was unfortunate that he had to wear that town boyish outfit…"
Michigan seems to have empathy in her eyes as she looks at the photo. "Yes… Now, how about we stop being GM's and go play the game?"
Albatross smiles and they both sneakily exit their desks leaving the other GM's to watch the game.
"Well… we are the Ceos… shall we start this thing Laser Bell?"
"Yes, boss!"
….
Corey looks at the gigantic arachnid ninja in front of him.
He immediately moves to the side before he activates one of his hidden items. He has level one hidden items from completing various quests, and they allow his stats to reach that of a level 12 player.
He activates one of the skills on the epic leaf pendant known as god's whisper. With it his evasion is increased by 20%
The arachnid ninja has eight swords and slices towards Corey's shadow.
Using some of the moves he learned during his martial artist training as a kid he is able to dodge the attacks.
Dream Knight looks on with reverence in her eyes, and immediately activates the angel's blessing on their party increasing his defense by + 10 points.
Corey can now just barely make out the eight arms that are coming towards him.
He spins, and slashes down before he analyzes his opponent.
Arachnid Ninja
Level 20
HP 800 / 800
MP 50 / 50
He then bursts downward with his sword and cuts into the Arachnid Ninja. If he can kill this Ninja, he will get a leveling boost.
Since the Arachnid is more than 10 levels higher than him, he will receive 5x more experience than he normally would.
-50 Hp
-50 Hp
'Yes… just let your father beat you, You are going to die, silly creature." Corey spins quickly in the air again before seven swords barrel towards his face.
Dream Knight wants to cover her eyes and not watch.
At this time, though, Thrasher once again narrowly escapes that slash and jumps back before he pulls out a little disk.
"Hey, Dream Knight! They let me keep an ice bomb! Going to use it once we can amass a crowd!"
Dream Knight rolls her eyes as men cry to her left and right as the Arachnid Ninja's slaughter all the noobs around them.
"Hmph, you're too lucky with your drops Thrasher! Just use it on a good crowd…"
Thrasher smiles as he looks at the turning red Ninja.
He immediately starts a rather long battle with his solo opponent.
They trade blows out in the middle of the town, occasionally toppling over bodies on the floor, and sometimes even causing the NPC's to scream in fright.
"It's so unfortunate we're going to lose such a low level player," One female NPC covers her eyes at the auction house.
"Heh… just watch him survive. I recognize that name from the History books from our gods." Her father replies biting a mango like fruit.
"You mean…. Is that Thrasher… The legendary soloist!"
Her father smiles before he picks up a watermelon and shoves it in his large mouth. "Yup, Lord Albatross wouldn't lie to us… He made us after all dear."
His daughter smiles before the battle continues.
-300 HP
-500 Hp
Corey begins to see patterns as he spins away from another sword move.
"He's too good at this," Steel Lion comments as he walks out of the grave yard, "However, did he have to take my cutlass… I got that from the level 68 boss, the Martian Empress…"
"It's surprising he's still alive… This is no longer the same game Steel Lion… His compatriot looks dejected as he walks towards the safe part of the town.
"Yes, we should start with the boars and level 1 wolves… let's go."
The arachnid, at this time, gets one more attack for – 50 HP. This attack is not a critical hit, but most of his sword moves were critical hits.
"Boom!"
The arachnid burst open before a golden light appears on the street.
A second later, he noticed his reputation stat went up by 3 points in Blue Bay City.
"Heh! You did it!" Dream Knight yells happily.
"We're also… not getting any experience…"
Thrasher looks down looking at his experience bar. 'Wait, did the GM's not give me their accounts… should I send them a message.'
He sighs as his experience still says zero for one minute longer before he gets the notification.
"Hehe... took a second for the AI to calculate... sorry for the delay"
+ 15,000 experience.
- Player Thrasher has reached level 10
-Player has gained 20 SP points. Will show stats after battle.
Thrasher smiles and then runs over to Dream Knight who is fighting another Arachnid. The golden item that dropped immediately flies over to him. At this time, he hops up and ends up slashing his level 1 epic blade into the back of the Ninja
"MOO HAAA!" The creature screams.
It has just called for help as its HP reaches 30.
Dream Knight, who is also level 10 now casts the scarlet blessing of attack on both of them before she rises up and slams her cudgel into its head.
Boom!
The golden coins from the creature fall to the floor as Thrasher watches his level rise to level 12.
"Heh… I think we should get out of here Dream Knight…"
"Yes, let's go before their Mother comes."
With roughly 2000 arachnids running towards them they sprint past Steel Lion who is currently slowly limping along.
"The wolves are even too tough for me… How ridiculous is this," He bemoans his fate to his fellow compatriot who is now without his epic tunic.
"Yes… we should really join one of the beginner's martial studios in another town… It was in the guide book"
As he is mopping, a second later, Thrasher runs by with a cutlass in his hand.
Thrasher, basically, having grown accustomed to his frenemy, throws his cutlass down on the floor. "You're going to need this!" He screams as he runs off.
Steel Lion, with a tear in his eye, reaches down to pick up the cutlass.
