Before long, Sini appeared in the territory of the Flame Spirit Foxes.
She saw Godslayer effortlessly battling two Flame Spirit Foxes, dispatching them with ease.
"So strong!" Sini was stunned.
This game wasn't simple; it felt like a real world. Beyond attributes, combat skills were extremely important.
Godslayer seemed battle-hardened, but his fighting style was unfamiliar to her and didn't resemble those from Ancient Martial Arts families.
This guy must be a gaming expert with high comprehension skills—a martial arts prodigy. It's a pity he chose the mage profession...
[Defeated Level 10 Flame Spirit Foxes, gained 20 experience points]
[Plunder talent activated, gained 1 point in Spirit attribute]
[Successfully defeated 10 first-tier beasts, Wrath of the Gods talent upgraded to E-level, gained 20% skill cooldown reduction]
[Upgrade condition: Defeat 100 first-tier beasts, Wrath of the Gods talent can be upgraded to D-level]
The notification flashed.
John had killed 10 Flame Spirit Foxes, gaining 1 Spirit attribute point.
Moreover, his Wrath of the Gods talent upgraded to E-level, granting him a 20% cooldown reduction and unlocking the next upgrade condition:
killing 100 first-tier beasts.
"Continue!"
John muttered, noticing Sini nearby but ignoring her, focusing on hunting more Flame Spirit Foxes.
[Player Gale has sent you a party invitation]
Sini sent a team invite to John.
He declined it without hesitation, even intentionally letting a Flame Spirit Fox slip by, which pounced on Sini.
Boom!
A Fireball hit her. At Level 1, Sini was instantly killed.
At the novice village resurrection point,
Sini was furious. "Bastard!"
She could tell that Godslayer had done it on purpose.
Sini desperately wanted to take revenge on this guy, but at Level 1, she was no match.
Even if she hadn't dropped to Level 1, she felt she wouldn't be able to defeat Godslayer.
"For the sake of my freedom, I'll bear it!" Sini gritted her teeth, suppressing her anger. She entered the forest again, heading straight for the Flame Spirit Foxes' territory to find Godslayer once more.
Another Flame Spirit Fox bypassed Godslayer and charged straight at her.
Predictably, Sini was once again killed instantly.
"Damn it!" At the resurrection point, Sini looked grim. In the world of Gods, death was reversible, but the mental strain was significant.
"I refuse to believe I can't deal with you!" Sini was now dead set on confronting Godslayer.
...
After more than ten attempts, Sini emerged from the resurrection point once again, her face pale and her mental resilience nearing its limit.
A player running a stall nearby had been watching for a while. With what he thought was a charming smile, he approached Sini and said, "Hey, beauty, are you lovesick? Big brother can help you out!"
His expression was lewd.
Sini, already fuming, coldly replied, "Get lost!"
"Oh, a feisty one. I like that!" The sleazy man raised his arm, intending to lift Sini's chin.
Sini stepped back, grabbed his arm, and applied a joint lock.
Crack!
The sound of bone breaking was accompanied by the man's pig-like squeal of pain.
Sini moved like a phantom, her dagger flashing as it sliced through the man's vital points. He turned into a white light and reappeared at the resurrection point, looking dazed.
"Hmph, loser!" Sini gave him a disdainful glance before turning to leave.
A Level 1 assassin had just taken down a Level 6 warrior!
The onlookers were stunned, their perception of the world shattered.
"So, assassins are the strongest class in the world of Gods!"
"Is it too late to change my class now?"
"Our party is recruiting assassins, no requirements needed."
...
In the crowd, a novice assassin looked at a nearby heavy armored warrior and stabbed him without hesitation.
Clang!
The dagger broke, and the warrior's health barely budged, displaying a pitiful 1-point damage.
The heavy armored warrior turned, his face full of muscle and anger, glaring at the frail assassin. "What do you think you're doing?"
The novice assassin gulped and forced a smile. "Bro, I just wanted to test if my dagger was sharp…"
Boom!
The warrior swung his heavy sword, instantly killing the assassin, and spat. "Strongest class? Trash!"
...
Unaware of the scene at the resurrection point, Sini re-entered the Flame Spirit Foxes' territory and found Godslayer.
Dead Flame Spirit Foxes littered the area.
Godslayer was effortlessly handling the attacks of three Flame Spirit Foxes.
[Player Godslayer has sent you a party invitation]
Sini, ready to face death again, was stunned by the party invitation from Godslayer. She quickly accepted it, overjoyed, and then realized, "This guy has killed me 17 times, and I'm actually happy?"
Despite her grudge, Sini put on a smile to complete her mission. She looked at Godslayer and said, "Boss, are you going to help me level up?"
John picked up the two copper coins dropped by the Flame Spirit Foxes and said flatly, "Yes, help me lure the monsters."
Most of the Flame Spirit Foxes in the area had already been cleared by John, and luring more would be a waste of time. This task was perfect for Sini.
"What?" Sini frowned, struggling to suppress her anger. She knew he wouldn't be so kind and snapped, "Boss, I'm only level 1. If a Flame Spirit Fox even touches me, I'll die."
"Don't worry, I won't let you die," John replied.
Sini rolled her eyes. She didn't believe a single word Godslayer said. She had died 17 times because of him!
He was a demon.
"Fine. If I die again, I won't forgive you!" Determined to complete her task and regain her freedom, Sini reluctantly agreed.
She charged towards a small group of Flame Spirit Foxes in the distance.
Sini had a cunning plan—this group had seven Flame Spirit Foxes. Godslayer might be strong, but facing so many would be tough.
She wanted him to taste death after killing her so many times.
Nerves on edge, Sini kept a close watch on the Flame Spirit Foxes' movements, ready to dodge their magical attacks.
Whoosh!
Three fireballs roared towards her. She managed to dodge one, but the other two were unavoidable.
"I was careless!" Sini thought, filled with despair. Now at level 1, her attributes were greatly reduced, leaving her no chance to dodge.
Just as she closed her eyes, ready to meet her death again, she heard two explosions.
Boom! Boom!
Sini opened her eyes wide, utterly shocked. "How is this possible?" she muttered.
A fireball and a wind blade had precisely intercepted and destroyed the two fireballs from the Flame Spirit Foxes.
"How did he do that?" Sini stared at Godslayer, a strong desire to learn from him growing inside her. She wanted to ask but couldn't bring herself to do it.
Godslayer was undoubtedly extraordinary.
His control over his skills and his grasp of battlefield tactics were perfect.
Otherwise it not make sense.
"Hey, if you don't want to die, get behind me!" Godslayer's impatient voice snapped her out of her thoughts.
Sini quickly hid behind him, her mind racing with questions.
John knew what she was thinking but didn't bother to point it out. With his skills cooled down, he raised his hand, and fireballs and wind blades flew out.
Boom! Boom!
A Flame Spirit Fox was instantly killed.
The remaining six Foxes launched their attacks, sending six fireballs his way, enveloping him.
John didn't bother to dodge. He let the fireballs hit him, not even using Earth Shield.
-1
-1
...
With his incredibly high magic resistance, the Flame Spirit Foxes' attacks couldn't penetrate his defense, only chipping away 1 HP at a time.
Sini was once again deeply shocked. She glanced at the party interface showing Godslayer's information and couldn't believe it. "Is he really only level 9?"
[The party has killed Flame Spirit Foxes. You gain 10 experience points.]
The notification flashed. Normally, experience points would be divided in a party, reducing efficiency.
But with Godslayer, Sini's leveling efficiency hadn't decreased—it had increased dramatically.
Seeing Sini still in a daze, John urged, "Don't just stand there, keep luring the monsters!"
Sini snapped out of it, glaring at Godslayer.
He was clearly using her as a workhorse.
Determined to gain his trust, Sini continued to lure more Flame Spirit Foxes, willing to endure for her mission.
