I Became the Progenitor Vampire-Chapter 203 - 204: This game is really fun, you can fight NPCs~ (Long Chapter)
Chapter 203: Chapter 204: This game is really fun, you can fight NPCs~ (Long Chapter)
“Bro, this is the virtual game we’re talking about? It’s way too realistic, isn’t it??”
“Dude, check out that chick—those legs, that butt, those boobs, I can’t even handle it, hurry, help me get to bed….”
“Skank, get lost, what’s there to see in a bean sprout? Have you seen that noblewoman getting on the carriage? Do you get it??
That’s what I call a real beauty!!”
“Pfft, you know nothing, bro, flat-chested lolis are my true love.”
“Little bro, you’re still young, it’s the mature ladies who are……”
...
On a street near the western edge of Green City, three men, freshly emerged from the Life Goddess’ temple and dressed in grey burlap, lecherously eyed the passing crowd, especially at the sight of young, beautiful women, their eyes practically glowing.
One of them, with a cold expression like a facial paralysis, showed no interest in the others’ conversation.
The one called “Third Brother,” with short hair, spoke arrogantly,
“To think that we, the Hun Yuan Thunderclap Hand Cheng Kun brothers, have ruled the game world for years, and now we have finally experienced such a virtual game in our lifetime.”
After saying this, he stretched out his hand and turned to the other two.
“Shout our slogan!”
The two other players placed their hands over his.
The man with the cold face started, “I, Hun Yuan,”
The second, Third Brother, who liked mature ladies, quickly followed, “I, Thunderclap Hand,”
And the last one, fond of lolis, hurriedly added, “I, Cheng Kun.”
Finally, all three shouted together.
“We, the three brothers—Hun Yuan Thunderclap Hand Cheng Kun, will become the masters of this world, hurrah~”
After that, they looked at each other and smiled, very pleased with their slogan.
“What’s all the noise about? You filthy lowlife refugees, don’t spread your disgusting stench in front of my shop. Get lost!!”
Right after the players shouted their slogan, a fat merchant in a golden robe with a big belly and a long hooked nose burst out from a nearby fruit shop, his chest heaving with anger as he glared at Hun Yuan Thunderclap Hand Cheng Kun.
“You’ve disturbed my business ten times in half a day already, Green City is getting filthier by the day because of refugees like you. I really hope the Death God takes you away soon!”
His roaring voice was like that of a giant dragon, startling the three players.
But the trio quickly got angry.
“Motherfucker, that scared the hell out of me. How dare a petty merchant yell at your dad Hun Yuan?”
“Your grandpa Thunderclap Hand is going to teach you why the flower is so red today~”
“Your ancestor Cheng Kun will teach you a lesson!”
The trio had just come out from the Life Temple, and the effects of the Priest’s language comprehension hadn’t worn off yet.
So although they spoke in Huaxia, outsiders could understand them too, but this immediately ignited the merchant’s rage.
“You damn thieves, filthy robbers, I swear I will have the City Lord’s army throw you in jail!”
How dare a bunch of fleeing refugees shout at him like this? It’s outrageous!!
A sneer appeared on Hun Yuan’s face, “An NPC dares to show off against your gamer daddy?? Even if I get killed today, I’ll let you taste the gamer’s fist of justice.”
Gamers were fearless beings, and as such, they wouldn’t be cowed by an NPC in a game.
Thunderclap Hand and Cheng Kun weren’t about to stand down either, hearing Hun Yuan’s words, they immediately prepared to attack. Especially after seeing on the attribute panel that the merchant in front was just a plain merchant, they were reassured.
Swinging the fist of justice, they charged forward.
The fat merchant’s face changed.
These damned refugees really dared to strike him??
“Stop, you bastards, the Goddess will definitely punish you!”
Hun Yuan Thunderclap Hand Cheng Kun brothers were much more imposing than the previous Glory Light.
With their numbers and the fat merchant’s lack of combat prowess, he was instantly knocked to the ground.
“Watch grandpa perform the Monkey Steals The Peach!”
“Awoo~”
“The Millennium Kill!”
“AAAAAH!”
“Catch… ptooey, Dragon Claw Hand!”
“Wooo~~”
The severely beaten fat merchant experienced a bizarre array of techniques that made him start questioning his life.
After dealing with the merchant, the siblings looked at the unguarded shop and smirked.
“Second Brother, this jerk is so unreasonable; as messengers of justice, shouldn’t we rob from the rich to give to the poor?”
“Of course, how else can we showcase our strength…”
“Can NPC shops be robbed?”
“Hehe, let’s find out…”
Then, the street-side shop was plundered by the three of them.
For players, it’s just a game, there’s no psychological burden with murder or robbery, would they feel guilty about beating up an NPC?
Don’t even think about it.
So the trio robbed without any pressure, and the chubby merchant could only watch the scene with a face full of mournfulness, cursing these despicable refugees a thousand times in his heart.
Unfortunately, perhaps by coincidence or luck, there were a lot of pedestrians on the surrounding streets at the time, but no matter how much the chubby merchant yelled, no one paid him any attention; even the civilians who saw the scene quickened their pace and left.
Joking aside, this place is right next to the west district.
Daring to rob in broad daylight in front of everyone, this group was clearly not to be trifled with, if they got involved, someone might get killed.
These civilians had long found their own way of survival in the chaotic security environment, and those who were bold and reckless had already met the Death God.
In other areas, there might be people with a sense of justice who would take action, but being close to the west district meant that aside from the Green City patrol army, it was hard to encounter so-called righteous people.
Even believers of the Light God and the God of Justice had no thoughts about this forsaken land of sin, let alone other professionals.
“Is it done? This game is really too realistic, not only can you hit NPCs, you can even rob them just like that.
Hahaha, awesome~”
Thunderclap Hand was completely satisfied, the hardcore level of this game was beyond expectation.
What other game lets you beat up an NPC you dislike and rob them too?
This is the real deal virtual game, explosively realistic.
Turning his head to look at the belly-bloated merchant still wailing at the entrance of the fruit shop, Thunderclap Hand, annoyed, stepped forward and gave him another beating.
“Hmph, fatso, let me tell you, today, me, your second brother, and fourth brother robbing you is something you should accept. What we’re doing is robbing the rich to help the poor, doing good deeds, understand??
And some puny merchant NPC daring to scare us, you probably have no idea how renowned Hun Yuan Thunderclap Hand Cheng Kun really is!”
“You damned bastards, are you from an underground force? This place is protected by the Sinking Fog!! You will surely be killed!!”
The belly-bloated merchant, lying on the ground with two panda eyes, shouted furiously.
These three damned refugees, he must have these three jerks hanged, definitely!
What is the Sinking Fog? The three exchanged glances, intrigued by the name.
“Sinking Fog?? What is that, some kind of gang??
Hun Yuan bent down, questioning the swollen-faced, pig-headed merchant.
Hearing this, the chubby merchant grew even angrier.
“You damned refugees, you dare to rob without even knowing the Sinking Fog?!! This is the west district’s strongest of the three major forces, a protected area of the Sinking Fog.
No one can offend the Sinking Fog, you will surely be hanged at the gallows, I swear!!”
Seeing him still daring to threaten them at this moment, Hun Yuan immediately got angry.
“Fuck, what the hell is Sinking Fog, what three major forces!! Brothers, beat him up”
Bang bang bang~
Two players stepped forward and gave him another beating.
As players, although newly arrived, what were they afraid of? Wasn’t it just a robbery, just offending some underground force?
What is there to be afraid of?
After enjoying the beating, the trio immediately took a liking to this feeling.
Fourth brother Cheng Kun hesitantly said, “Second brother, third brother, are we still going to find NPCs to change professions or do quests? I feel… joining an underground gang and doing some robbery seems more thrilling.”
Players basically have no psychological burden, these guys are just here to play, whatever is fun is the way to go, as for good or evil, these rookie players who just arrived in Glory are not aware of it yet.
Hun Yuan showed approval on his face, “Not bad, definitely possible”
After finishing his words, he touched a large number of copper pucks in his pocket, still fixated on the chubby merchant.
Robbing is much faster than doing quests to make money.
Thunderclap Hand nodded vehemently, “I agree with this”
“So which gang shall we join?”
After Cheng Kun spoke, the three simultaneously turned their heads toward the chubby merchant.
“Tell us!!”
At this moment, the big-bellied merchant wanted to cry but had no tears, he really wanted to stand up and curse.
You beat me up that’s fine, you rob me, that’s fine, but now you even want me to guide you in the direction of your future development.
Isn’t this bullying too much?
But after being beaten up by the players’ iron fists, the chubby merchant also came to a realization.
These lowly refugees, though despicable, the merchant needed to measure the timing, knowing when to retreat and when to ruthlessly fleece the customers, this was the divine revelation taught by the great Goddess of Wealth.
He immediately spoke.
“Underworld of Green City has three major forces, Dark Contract, Demon Heart, Sinking Fog”
The chubby merchant’s eyes roamed wildly, quickly regaining his mercantile demeanor, “Three handsome and great dragon slayer heroes, perhaps you could join the Sinking Mist. Here, you can receive the best training.”
Upon finishing, he looked at the three eagerly, thinking that once they joined the Sinking Mist, he would definitely have fun with these damned refugees!!
He had paid the shelter fee to Sinking Mist for so many years and knew quite a few “big shots”; getting rid of two newcomers would be easy.
Naturally, the three were not so easily fooled.
Their expressions remained calm, “Tell us in detail about these three forces.”
There was some disappointment in the fat merchant’s eyes; however, having adjusted his attitude, he seemed unconcerned about the encounter just now and began to patiently explain.
“Sinking Mist is the most powerful existence among the three forces, commanded by the great fallen knight, Gavin. It’s an unrivaled power.”
The chubby merchant still didn’t give up, continuing to boast, “So joining the Sinking Mist is really the best choice.
The other two powers are many times weaker compared to the Sinking Mist.
Especially the Dark Contract—its president, Viscount Bernard, offended the Protector of Green City, the extraordinary Mage, Lord Rock, and has now vanished without a trace.
Moreover, because of offending Lord Rock, the Dark Contract has been ferociously besieged by the army of Green City in recent times and has suffered substantial losses.
What’s key now is that the Dark Contract has changed to a new president whose strength is unknown—Lord Ilo, who is very mysterious and seems to be a vampire. You might end up as vampire food if you joined…”
All three completely ignored the hidden meaning in the fat merchant’s words, exchanged glances, and felt very excited.
Listen to these titles—
Transcendent, Viscount Bernard, Vampire; very high-end.
They hadn’t expected to encounter such high-level information on their first day in the game, definitely a pleasant surprise.
They were even considering how they were going to boast on the ‘Glory’ forum.
“What about the Dark Contract now? What kind of existence is a Transcendent? And who is this Viscount Bernard?”
Hun Yuan continued to ask with a cold face.
The chubby merchant was frustrated, thinking, Am I supposed to be the boss of the Sinking Mist? How would I know this kind of information?
But seeing the three players with fists as big as sandsacks, he honestly continued.
“The Dark Contract has now become the weakest of the three forces, significantly inferior to the Demon Heart and Sinking Mist.
As for the Transcendent, I can only say that the extraordinary Mage, Lord Rock, is the Protector of our Green City, the only Transcendent existence here. His power is beyond what words can describe.”
“Viscount Bernard was the former president of the Dark Contract. His power is unclear, and since he has offended Lord Rock, he has disappeared without a trace.”
Hearing the fat merchant’s explanation, the three exchanged looks, their faces revealing uncontrollable excitement.
This information was fantastic for them, knowing so much secret intelligence on their first day was exhilarating.
“Second brother, we have to make a few posts when we get out, let that bunch of losers see just how awesome we, the Kun brothers of Hun Yuan Thunderclap Hand, are…”
Hun Yuan nodded, fully agreeing, “Perfect.”
“So, which force do we join? Just like this fatty said, join the Sinking Mist?” Thunderclap Hand hesitated a bit, “I always feel this jerk is up to no good.”
Cheng Kun sneered, “Do we even need to feel it? It’s obvious. Let’s ask about another one, what about Demon Heart? Just its name sounds powerful.”
After discussing, they turned to look at the chubby merchant who had barely managed to sit up.
“What about the Demon Heart?”
Hearing this name, the chubby merchant showed a hint of fear, “Controlled by the Heart-eating Demon, Wales, Demon Heart is the most evil of the three major forces.
It’s because the Heart-eating Demon, Wales, has a half demon bloodline. His favorite thing to do is to dig out the hearts of his defeated enemies and eat them fresh with blood…”
Seeing the panic on the chubby merchant’s face, they felt a bit creeped out too.
“Damn, this game is so real, look at this dead fatty, that kind of fear coming from the heart is really unsettling.”
Cheng Kun, who was the most cowardly among them, felt a chill upon hearing about the deeds of the Heart-eating Demon.
At that moment, Hun Yuan’s eyes sparkled with a hint of coldness as he stared at the chubby merchant, “You’re lying!”
The chubby merchant shook his head crazily, “No, I am not lying, the legend of the Heart-eating Demon, Wales, is well-known throughout the underground world of Green City; you can ask anyone in the western district.”
Hun Yuan shook his head, “No, I’m not talking about the Heart-eating Demon. I mean about the Dark Contract.”
“Dark Contract?” The merchant seemed puzzled, “I swear by the Goddess of Wealth, I haven’t deceived you…”
Thunderclap Hand and Cheng Kun also looked confusedly at Hun Yuan, “Second brother, what’s wrong?”
Hun Yuan scoffed, “According to what this bastard said, the Dark Contract offended the most powerful existence in this city. Logically, it shouldn’t have survived,
but now, the original president of the Dark Contract has disappeared, and this underground force still exists. Doesn’t that strike you as odd?
Normally, in the underworld, once a gang loses a powerful backing, it would be devoured by other forces in no time.
But this one hasn’t, don’t you find that strange?”
Thunderclap Hand and Cheng Kun looked at Hun Yuan with admiration, “Second Brother, are you the legendary domestic 007? Brilliant, truly brilliant!”
The chubby merchant couldn’t understand what the two were talking about, but seeing Hun Yuan’s mocking gaze, he suddenly felt more pain in his body.
“No, I’m not lying, the Dark Contract really lost their president, but during this time, because of the new president’s emergence, the master of Demon Heart, the Heart-eating Demon Wales, acknowledged the status of Dark Contract…
So although the Dark Contract has weakened a lot, it still remains one of the three great forces…”
Hun Yuan’s eyes showed a hint of interest, “So you mean, the problem lies with this new president?”
“Yes, the new president of the Dark Contract, Lord Ilo, is the legendary Vampire, whose strength is immeasurable,” the chubby merchant said with undisguised amazement in his eyes,
“The shocking part is, this Vampire isn’t just the president of the Dark Contract, but also has been invited by Heart-eating Demon Wales to become the vice president of Demon Heart.”
“It’s simply unbelievable, the Dark Contract and the previous Demon Heart were completely enemies; now, Demon Heart is actually letting the president of the Dark Contract serve as their vice president…”
Hearing this, Hun Yuan immediately understood that this new president was even more powerful.
“Second brother, have you figured it out? Which force shall we join?” Thunderclap Hand and Cheng Kun didn’t overthink it, urging Hun Yuan to make a decision.
For them, joining an Underground Force was merely for the convenience of engaging in exciting games like robbery; they didn’t consider much.
After all, in a game, what truly matters is having fun.
“Of course, the Dark Contract,” Hun Yuan was quite rational about this, “Just think about it, the president of Demon Heart is so formidable, holding two positions among the three major forces,
he’s both the president of the Dark Contract and the vice president of Demon Heart, compared to the disgusting Heart-eating Demon Wales, Vampires are much more acceptable.
If we latch onto such a big leg, won’t we be able to fly high in the future?
Let alone robbing an ordinary NPC merchant, wouldn’t we be able to rob anyone we want in this city?
We, Hun Yuan, Thunderclap Hand, and Cheng Kun, will become the new tycoons of the Green City’s Underworld…”
Hun Yuan’s words made Thunderclap Hand and Cheng Kun itch for action; they were college students, and aspiring to be gang leaders in real life would probably be suicidal, even the old lady from the building next door could take care of them.
But it’s different in the game, who hasn’t fantasized about leading underlings to pick up girls and slashing people in the streets, walking down the street majestically with hundreds of underlings?
This game even allows robbing in broad daylight, it’s so realistic; they can certainly live out their fantasies here.
“Let’s go, Hongxing Club opens today~”
“Fatso, do you know how to join the Dark Contract?”
Hearing this, the chubby merchant, with his big belly and wearing a golden robe, cursed these damned jerks in his heart, thinking what they took him for.
“I’m sorry, I…” Just as he was about to refuse, thump~ a sandbag-sized fist slammed down.
Hun Yuan sneered, “What were you saying?”
The merchant’s face trembled, and he quickly spoke, “Great dragon-slaying warriors, I swear to the Goddess of Wealth,
you just need to enter the western district and declare your origin in a crowded tavern, and you might meet someone from the Dark Contract.
I, I am just a merchant, I don’t know much, I really am just a merchant… sob sob… I’m a merchant… sob sob.”
By the end of it, the chubby merchant felt greatly wronged and couldn’t help bursting into loud crying, his voice filled with tears and his appearance sad; even the crowd pretending not to see couldn’t help but sneak a few peeks.
He swore, he only wanted to drive away those noisy guys next to his shop, but unexpectedly… sob sob, he was so miserable.
Hun Yuan, Thunderclap Hand, and Cheng Kun exchanged awkward glances.
Sweating internally.
MMP, you might not believe it if we didn’t say, but on our first day in the game, we robbed a roadside NPC merchant and even made him cry…
This game is just too damn fun…
“Alright, alright, we’ll let you go this time. Stop crying.”
Cheng Kun threatened awkwardly, and under the imposing presence of the three, the chubby merchant immediately choked back his tears, looking at them with red eyes, pitifully helpless.
“You’re an adult, acting like a child, isn’t this embarrassing?
It’s just a beating, right? You’re an NPC, what are you crying for? No more crying in the future.”
Thunderclap Hand stood up and intervened, speaking earnestly to the merchant,
“You need to be stronger, life is tough, but the future is bright, promising, and splendid. We have to believe in the college entrance examination… ah, I mean, we have to believe it’s possible…”
The merchant looked confused, “Possible what?”
Thunderclap Hand’s face stiffened, “Hmm, possible, possible, just possible, what does it matter?”
The merchant ended up swallowing his words, “Oh.”
Seeing this, Thunderclap Hand turned to Hun Yuan, looking smug, “Second brother, I’ve educated him, I believe he won’t dare next time, right, fatty?”
The chubby merchant almost cried again, now only praying for these jerks to leave his shop, he could only nod fiercely.
“See that, second brother?! That’s the power of knowledge.”
Hun Yuan ignored him, turning to glance at the street where people continually passed but nobody ever stopped or came in to help the merchant; his eyes reflected thoughtfulness.
“It seems the public order in the west side of Green City is even worse than I thought. We’ve been robbing for so long and no one has come to stop us, and there’s not even a patrolling officer… this is really shocking.”,
Cheng Kun asked curiously, “What does this indicate?”
Hun Yuan’s expression remained as stoic as ever, “It indicates chaos, it shows that this kind of thing is very common, it indicates that the patrolling force in Green City is very weak,
and it also indicates that we don’t need to worry too much about robbing other places in the future. This will be our paradise.
Let’s go join the Dark Contract and become professionals.
We, Hun Yuan, Thunderclap Hand, and Cheng Kun, will definitely become the gang leaders, ruling the entire Underground Force of Green City…”
He turned around after speaking, taking the dozen silver pucks and hundreds of copper pucks they had robbed from the chubby merchant and headed toward the western district.
The arrival of players melds into Glory gradually and silently, some choosing light, others darkness.
What happens next, remains a mystery.
