5 First kill by a player
At the other end of the channel is a world fragment randomly selected by Zhou Heng for the players from the nearby world fragments. This world fragment will drift out of the range that the World Tree can perceive in a week.
The world of Auroras has Nina to stabilize its spatial coordinates, unlike nearby world fragments that can float everywhere, but this is a good thing. Worlds that float randomly are most likely to collide with each other, becoming fireworks and returning directly to the source.
Although the end of the world is called the graveyard of the world and is the final resting place of fragments from all worlds that have died naturally or been destroyed, no matter how dilapidated a world is, there are still some valuable items left.
However, due to the special energy that always fills this place, which can shield divine power, divine power cannot penetrate objects, and the gods cannot use their divine power to search for treasures.
Although it has some value, it is too chicken-rib for the gods. It is too embarrassing for them to dig by themselves. They can mobilize believers for a while, but in the long run, not only will believers' faith in the gods be greatly discounted, but maintaining their lives will also be a huge expense.
The manpower and material resources expended are clearly not proportional to the harvest.
So, generally speaking, the gods will not come here.
This is when players come into play. They don't need money. Simply assigning them tasks and giving them some rewards are enough to make them work hard.
They won't complain, but will only blame you for not assigning enough tasks.
You can't find such good believers in another world.
Nina stabilizes the newly created world, while Zhou Heng is responsible for collecting resources externally.
Now, let's establish a portal first and send players to explore and see the bottom of this world.
After all, players can be revived.
... ....
With tools in hand, Lao Tan Suancai stepped into the portal and appeared on a desolate land.
In the distance lay an endless plain of withered yellow, and a few withered yellow grass grew sparsely on the barren land under his feet, showing the only sign of life in this world.
Lao Tan Suancai stared at the scenery in front of him, not making any move yet, which made the players behind him anxious.
"People in front, move aside. There are others behind you. Don't block the way," shouted the players who were blocked behind.
Lao Tan Suancai quickly moved aside, and the players behind him began to arrive in this world one after another, exploring the new world.
Lao Tan Suancai started looking for places with stones, and the surrounding players also began to scatter and search.
Walking and picking up small stones, fortunately, this game also had a spatial backpack, although it was only 3 cubic meters in size, but it was fine to run a few more times.
After more than ten minutes.
He finally found a pile of stones.
But there was a problem. This game didn't have an automatic mining option, which meant.....
There was no other way, he had to dig!
Lao Tan Suancai was digging boringly when suddenly he unearthed a flat stone slab with some strange writing on it that he couldn't understand at all.
At this moment, the game system prompted: "Do you want to activate the primary foreign language translation function? It can provide a 10-second experience time, and it will cost 1 copper coin for every additional minute."
Lao Tan Suancai thought for a moment and activated it.
It read:
"This is the tomb of Thomson-Cecil. Tomb raiders will surely receive....."
Before Lao Tan Suancai could finish reading, a pale bony arm emerged from the rubble below and suddenly grabbed his foot.
He looked down and jumped in fright. The skeleton was also dragged out by him.
"Mom! A ghost!"
Lao Tan Suancai was so scared that he ran everywhere, dragging the skeleton with him and rubbing it against the rubble-covered ground.
The skeleton, being dragged around by Lao Tan Suancai, tried to react but was not given any time to do so as Lao Tan Suancai ran even faster when he saw it.
The green flame in its pale skull also dimmed, as if it was filled with helplessness and had not expected to encounter such a weird person even after death.
The air was filled with a joyful atmosphere.
Finally, after ten minutes, the skeleton's skull hit a protruding stone on the ground and broke open with a large hole.
The skeleton finally let go, and Lao Tan Suancai, who was now out of breath, thought he could finally stop and rest.
At this moment, the skeleton slowly stood up, its pale bony body now covered in scratches from being rubbed against the ground.
It raised one bony hand tremblingly towards Lao Tan Suancai, and the green flame slowly drifted out from the broken skull. Its lower jaw moved as if trying to say something.
In the end, the flame in the skeleton's skull went out, and a round light ball emerged from its body. It flew quickly towards Lao Tan Suancai as if attracted by something and was then absorbed by him.
The skeleton's body on the ground gradually turned to ashes, indicating that its weakness lay in its skull. Once the skull was destroyed, it would perish.
At this moment, Laotan Suancai absorbed the spherical orb of light, and the system notified him that he had gained 4 experience points, just enough to level up.
Laotan Suancai clicked to upgrade, and all his attributes increased by one point.
After allocating the stat points, Laotan Suancai immediately felt not only that his previously expended energy from the battle had been restored but also that he was now full of vitality, with seemingly endless strength.
He felt like he could run dozens of laps again. The leveling up and stat allocation in this game were incredibly realistic, allowing him to clearly perceive the changes in his body.
At this moment, Laotan Suancai noticed a system notification popping up on his game interface and clicked to view it.
"Congratulations, player Laotan Suancai! As the first player to defeat a monster, you will now receive a first-kill reward," the notification read.
Information from the game system appeared on the interface:
[First Place Reward: Title - Runner: Increases movement speed by 3% (You definitely don't want others to know how you obtained this title.)]
[100 copper coins, Bone Club.]
Item:
[Bone Club]
[Quality: Ordinary]
[Attack Power: 3-5]
[Durability: 9/10]
[Special Effect: Has a 3% chance to stun the enemy]
[Note: This is a thigh bone filled with the resentment of its former owner: "Next time, I won't let go."]
Laotan Suancai nodded and said, "Definitely go for the public announcement. I can't miss this opportunity to become famous. I'm sure to gain a lot of followers."
He clicked on the confirm option.
At this moment, a new system notification popped up on all players' game interfaces.
[Congratulations to player Laotan Suancai for achieving the first kill and obtaining the exclusive title: Runner.]
[We hope all players will learn from player Laotan Suancai, embrace challenges, and create more glory.]
Many players were shocked. They were still digging stones, and there was nothing around them, yet someone had already defeated a monster.
The world chat channel exploded with excitement. If it weren't for the limit of one free message per player, the chat would have been flooded instantly. And if players had earned money in the game at this point, some whales would have been spamming messages.
Nevertheless, many players still managed to get their messages out.
"Big shot, please give some tips on how to defeat monsters."
"Brother, I'm from the Dragon Rise guild. Our guild is willing to pay a hefty sum for the process of defeating monsters. Interested in a private chat?"
"Dude, our guild is full of beautiful girls. Wanna meet them?"
...
In an instant, Laotan Suancai's private mailbox was flooded with messages, forcing him to turn off system notifications.
"I need to focus on my mission. Let me pick up these stones first and check if there's anything good where the skeleton came from," he muttered to himself.
