MMORPG: War God, You are Invincible Again

"War God! War God! War God! War God!" In the international competition hall of KNO, tens of thousands of spectators were shouting in unison, frenziedly.

Each spectator had a virtual helmet on their head, and at this moment, in the eyes of the audience, the center of the stage was an arena forged from gold. Amidst the calls of the crowd, a warrior clad in black armor slowly stepped onto the arena. After the black-armored warrior scanned the crowd, the entire venue fell silent. They watched the warrior on the stage fervently, as if they were expecting this warrior to speak.

The warrior surveyed the crowd and then said slowly, "Thank you for your support. I am fully aware of the status of warriors in the Sky Game world. In all teams, in all competitive matches. The warrior is always the worst profession among all, and I'm well aware of how despised a warrior is when forming a team. But today, I have proven to the world that warriors are the strongest!"

As soon as these words were spoken, the entire audience stood up and applauded. Below the golden arena, several players who had just competed also couldn't help but softly clap. In this game called Sky Game, the warrior, as a bottom-tier profession, had always been reviled by countless players. It's not strong, lacks extreme combat output, has no group control, and its myriad of minor skills make it very hard for a player to master completely. After changing class, the skills become even more complex, and the output capability is also not comparable to those top-tier professions, so in Sky Game, a warrior can only exist as a kind of faith. Yet today, in the global competitive championship, it was a warrior who won the victory! This War God announced to the world the strength of warriors, redeeming the profession that had been at the bottom for seven years since the server opened.

"And now, let us present the award to the global champion!" A deep voice echoed throughout the arena, and countless spectators rose to their feet, guessing what the grand prize of the global champion could be. Perhaps it's the legendary Achilles set, or maybe those Judgment Giant Blades that only appeared in the catalog. It could be that a pair of wings that could soar through the skies would be bestowed upon the War God, especially since the War God's battle against the Storm Sacrifice had been extremely tough, almost resulting in a loss.

While all the spectators were guessing, a beam of light descended from the sky, enveloping the War God. When the golden light had dispersed, the mighty War God had vanished from the eyes of all the spectators. In the next instant, the connections of the virtual helmets were cut off from the world, and amidst the shock of numerous players, the Sky Game disappeared without a trace, as if it had never appeared seven years ago.

"What happened?" Lu Hong groggily woke up, wasn't he just accepting the championship award? How could...?!

Lu Hong looked around and then down at his equipment, only to find himself in the middle of a dense forest surrounded by corpses. The Bloodthirst armor that had taken countless effort to forge had turned into a set of tattered bamboo armor, stained with copious amounts of fresh blood.

What happened? What exactly happened? Could this be a secret realm reward? Lu Hong speculated, as in the past the game also had similar rewards. The more discoveries made in secret realms, the more tasks completed, the greater the final reward gained.

Just as Lu Hong was trying to call out the task panel, he was slightly startled to realize it was completely ineffective. However, a War God accustomed to countless storms in the game wouldn't be scared by this. As Lu Hong was about to get up, a spasm and a severe headache suddenly surged through him. Unable to endure the excruciating pain, Lu Hong fainted and lay among the corpses.

"You bastard!"

"Don't talk to him, look at how human he appears, but he's actually a half-breed orc!"

"That's right, he's just a half-breed orc! Sooner or later, he will devour humans like those orcs; a person like him should have been killed long ago!"

In his haze, Lu Hong seemed to be surrounded by countless villagers looking at him with eyes full of disgust and hatred, many with weapons slowly advancing towards Lu Hong who had fallen to the ground.

Apart from this scene, many other memories flashed through Lu Hong's mind. His mother's hatred and beatings when he was a child, and the gaze that seemed eager to kill him.

Finally, amidst the darkness, a cold blade mercilessly pierced Lu Hong's heart. Amidst the intense pain, Lu Hong suddenly awoke with a start, sitting up with his body drenched in cold sweat.

"Eh? You're awake!" At this moment, a young girl spoke softly, "You should lie down quickly; aunty said you've been seriously injured, and you can't move around yet."

"Where is this?" Supported by the young girl, Lu Hong reclined slowly, and while rubbing his aching head, he asked, "Where am I?"

"Here? This is my home!" The young girl replied, "You've been unconscious for seven days and seven nights. If not for aunty's miraculous medical skills, you might have already met the King of the Underworld."

Lu Hong closely watched the young girl, who was quite beautiful. However, as an experienced gamer, his intuition told him that this girl would assign him a task.

Well, three months passed. Aside from feeding Lu Hong and chatting with him, the girl showed no sign of delivering a task. During these three months, Lu Hong tried countless times to exit the game but was unsuccessful. At first, Lu Hong was somewhat anxious, because the time in the game "Skyscraper" was equivalent to real time. However, after numerous attempts, Lu Hong gradually gave up and even started to doubt whether he had actually traveled to another world.

"Alright, you can get out of bed now! You must be sick of lying in bed all this time," the charming girl said as she watched Lu Hong drink the last bowl of bitter medicine and told him the exciting news.

"Stop worrying over there, I don't need your help to stand," Lu Hong said, glancing at the girl with a worried look on her face, wanting to offer support.

"Hmph! Ungrateful." The girl huffed discontentedly.

Slowly stepping onto the ground and pushing the room's door open, a dazzling light slightly hurt Lu Hong's eyes. Once fully adjusted, he had a panoramic view of half a bustling city, with crowds streaming endlessly through the streets. He looked far and wide, but couldn't see the end of the city.

Nono, the young girl, had told him that his current location was atop one of the seven towers of Kains Academy, the Green Tower. As it stood at the heart of Ruijins City, it made sense that one could overlook half of the city from a window.

"Is this a real world?" This idea had been growing in Lu Hong for a while. How could the food from a game that couldn't be exited for three months actually fill his stomach? Or was he now wearing a VR helmet, hooked up to a drip in a hospital?

Regardless... he had inherited the memories of a boy named Tukuru, and he might have truly traveled to another world.

"Hey, Tukuru, what's so interesting outside that you're not even blinking?" Nono waved her hand in front of Lu Hong's eyes, snapping him back to the present.

"Oh! Nothing."

Just as the pair were about to leave the Green Tower, the big door at the top of the tower was pushed open by a beautiful woman. This stunning matron was dressed in an ornate magic robe, and through the opening of her robe, Lu Hong could vaguely see a pair of beautiful legs clad in black stockings. To Lu Hong, a natural cougar chaser, this was fatally tempting. Yet, he had to push aside such thoughts at the moment, for this woman was the Tower Master of Green Tower, a person he could not afford to offend.

"Auntie!" Upon seeing the beautiful lady, Nono cheerfully bounced to her side and hugged her arm, saying, "Auntie, you're amazing; your Tukuru is completely healed now."

The matron gently ruffled Nono's hair and said softly, "It is the result of the God of Life's blessing. Without the blessing of the God of Life, how could we have saved a life?"

"Yes, exactly! Clearly, the God of Life is way mightier than the Bright Sacrificial Heavenly God. Those priests fiddled around for so long and it did nothing," Nono agreed, nodding.

"One shouldn't talk like that. While both priests and druids are healing classes, they have their focuses," the matron glanced at Nono and then turned to Lu Hong, saying, "I've heard about your background from Nono and did some investigation. I sympathize with your ordeal. Now that you're healed, is there anywhere you would like to go?"

Lu Hong fell silent for a moment, and couldn't help but sigh as he thought about Tukuru's background. Born to a human woman violated by an orc, although Tukuru didn't inherit the orc's appearance, he did have orc blood. He was extremely unpopular in the remote village, frequently bullied. Even his mother was indifferent toward him, treating him as a stain on life. When Tukuru turned eighteen, he unleashed his orcish Bloodthirst and killed a child from the village. This incident ignited the fury of the villagers, who intended to kill him. Eventually, his mother broke into the crowd, cast a fog magic to rescue Tukuru, gave him a badge, and then sent him away. Luckily, Tukuru encountered a merchant caravan while wandering and the caravan's steward, seeing his plight, took him in.

But misfortune did not come singly; the caravan was attacked by bandits en route, and Lu Hong's consciousness arrived in Tukuru's body immediately after the bandits had robbed the caravan.

Lu Hong examined the badge in his hand but failed to make sense of it, eventually saying, "I'm not sure, I'll just take things as they come. Thank you for saving my life." As he spoke, he stole another glance at the matron's barely visible beautiful legs, feasting his eyes.

The matron stared intently at the badge in Lu Hong's hands, looked at him a few more times thoughtfully, and then suggested, "If you don't know where to go, you might as well stay at Kains Academy. Here we have holy temples for all professions, and young people like you will always be blessed by the Heavenly God. Besides, I'll keep this bedroom in Green Tower reserved for you; you can come back and live here anytime."
