Chapter 26: Hunted Becomes Hunter

Shortly after entering Xuanming Land, Lucien felt someone following him from behind.

He took a subtle glance and discovered that it was the dozens of Unaffiliated Players who had been behind him earlier.

However, these people’s tracking skills were truly abysmal.

He had originally thought he would be targeted or ambushed by members of the Gods Guild.

He hadn’t expected that the first ones to target him would actually be some Unaffiliated Players.

Looking at the Unaffiliated Players who were staying steadily fifty or sixty meters away, Lucien was not the kind of person who waited to be hit before striking back.

He never needed to stand on the moral high ground to do things.

Furthermore, he believed in striking first to gain the upper hand, for those who act late are the ones who suffer.

With a wave of his hand, a Soul Fire Talisman flew toward one of the players following him.

At this moment, the players behind Lucien were discussing in low voices.

"Boss, can we really beat him?"

"No matter how powerful he is, he’s only just come out of the Novice Village. Can so many of us not handle him?"

"The guy has a ghost artifact and even dark gold equipment on him. If those drop, we’ll be rich."

"Don’t worry, have you forgotten my talent? It can increase a skill’s damage by five times. Although it only lasts for two seconds, it’s definitely not something a Level 10 player can withstand."

However, while they were discussing, a miserable scream rang out.

A string of numbers popped up above the head of the player who had just been speaking.

-800

-900

-1560

-1689

A series of damage numbers exploded on the person, instantly killing them.

This caused the group of players to freeze in their tracks.

Even though Lucien was only Level 10, these Level 20+ Unaffiliated Players were no match for him.

Lucien’s sudden attack gave these players quite a fright.

"Falling into the Human World, we have no grudge against you, why are you attacking us for no reason!"

Someone from the group immediately shouted at Lucien.

Lucien paused his arm, which was about to rise again, and said, "What are you doing following me?"

The players immediately said, "We’re just passing through, just passing through, and you attack us?"

Lucien said unhurriedly, "Passing through? I’m sorry, but anyone who follows me, I treat as if they are preparing to launch an attack!"

After saying that, without waiting for them to react, he raised his hand and sent a Five Elements Spirit Talisman radiating five-colored light toward them, which exploded right in the middle of the group of Unaffiliated Players.

-600, -1200, -500

Seeing that high damage, they all wanted to retreat.

They launched their own attacks while backing away.

Various fireballs, arrows, lightning, and so on flew toward Lucien.

Lucien didn’t even prepare to dodge, nor did he use any protective skills.

Seeing that Lucien had absolutely no intention of defending himself,

the group of Unaffiliated Players stopped in their tracks.

"That kid is finished. So what if he has an SSS-Rank Talent? He actually dares to take the attacks of dozens of us head-on!"

"I have an A-Rank Talent that can temporarily increase a skill’s power by five times!"

"So we actually have a big shot here; that’s an A-Rank Talent, one in ten thousand."

"Haha, it’ll be great if that ghost artifact and dark gold weapon on him drop in a bit."

The group of players looked at Lucien with pity, as if he were about to die.

They didn’t believe he could withstand the talent of an A-Rank player focused on boosting attack power.

Yet Lucien’s gaze remained calm, not taking these people’s attacks to heart at all.

Just as the attacks were about to reach him, he extended the Thousand-Year Peach Wood Sword in his hand.

"Summon Five Elements Zombie."

Six magic circles lit up on the ground, and six Five Elements Zombies appeared to block the path in front of Lucien. 𝚏𝐫𝚎𝗲𝕨𝐞𝐛𝕟𝚘𝐯𝚎𝗹.𝕔𝐨𝗺

All the attacks landed on these six zombies.

-100, -150, -800, -80

"Ding! Player Little Genius has attacked your summon."

"Ding! Player Love Never Stops has attacked your summon."

"Ding..."

Amidst a series of system notifications, the zombies’ health bars only dropped by a visible sliver.

The players all stood there with their mouths wide open, stunned.

"What’s going on? He summoned six zombies at once?"

"Can’t others only summon one zombie? How can he summon six?"

"Why is the health of those zombies so high? After so many attacks, the zombies’ health dropped by less than a tenth."

The player with the A-Rank Talent found it even more unbelievable; he had used his talent skill.

Even against a Level 20 monster, it would only take three or four hits to kill it.

But the zombie he hit had only lost a fifth of its health.

At this moment, the way they looked at Lucien was even filled with fear.

However, Lucien didn’t care about how others looked at him.

He raised his hand and aimed a Soul Fire Talisman directly at that A-Rank Talent player.

"Big brother, I..."

Before the solo player with the A-Rank Talent could finish his sentence, he was engulfed by the Soul Fire Talisman.

-800

-1560

A series of six damage numbers floated above his head.

Then, a white light flashed, and he disappeared from this world.

Where he had vanished, a staff appeared out of thin air on the ground.

Seeing that someone among them had actually died, they finally snapped out of it.

"This damage isn’t right! Why are there six consecutive damage numbers!"

"This guy must be hacking! The damage is too high!"

"He’s definitely hacking, I’m going to report him to the system!"

"Everyone charge together, otherwise we won’t be able to escape once his skills are off cooldown."

However, the player who told everyone to charge together was quietly backing away, preparing to flee.

Another flurry of various skills was launched toward Lucien.

Similarly, Lucien sent a Five Elements Spirit Talisman flying toward the crowd.

His luck was good this time; it directly triggered Nine-Fold Spell Casting.

Nine instances of damage were simply not something these players could resist.

One by one, the players screamed and disappeared, leaving the ground covered in equipment.

As for the skills attacking Lucien, they were all blocked by the six zombies.

Glancing at the loot on the ground, Lucien picked them up one by one.

The vast majority were Black Iron equipment, with only one piece of bronze equipment.

There was also a pile of various materials, none of which were valuable.

"A bunch of trash!"

Lucien muttered very dissatisfiedly.

These players were really too poor.

He didn’t know where they got the courage to actually try and attack him.

They probably really thought he was just an ordinary Level 10 player!

After this farce, no one else came to disturb Lucien.

Soon, Lucien arrived at a monster spawn point.

There were many monsters, but there were also many players here to level up and farm materials.

Finding a spot with slightly fewer people, Lucien began his leveling journey.

Xuanming Skeleton Warrior

Level 20

HP: 10,000

Attack: 290

As ordinary monsters go, they were only slightly stronger than the ones in the Hell-difficulty Goblin Forest.

He directly commanded the zombies to start attacking these monsters.

Lucien didn’t stay idle either, observing where the monsters were more concentrated.

His current grinding speed was too fast; the monster respawn rate simply couldn’t keep up with his killing speed
