A gigantic dog-headed person walked around the mountain. He took one step after another, the stomps spreading through the entire small mountain.
He was five meters tall, much taller than the players, and held a huge walking stick in his hand, while his eyes exuded red gleams. ‘Dog-headed Priest’ was written above his head.
He was one of the survivors in the Dog-headed People Mountain Village. Since the last sacrificial ceremony, half of the villagers in the village had survived.
The rest had either died of diseases or had exploded and died due to other reasons.
Meanwhile, all of the dog-headed people that survived had gained powerful strength.
However, that power was not eternal. Therefore, the dog-headed people had decided to kill all of the adventurers nearby during the time they had been given the power.
Many dog-headed people followed behind the priest. Some of them had skinny, black skin, while some had wings. There were a variety of looks on them.
At that moment, a bunch of players walked out of the Rookie Village. They were killing monsters in the wild to level up.
The shaking in the ground came from far away, shocking those players.
White Milk turned her head and saw a gigantic dog-headed person leading a bunch of odd dog-headed people.
White Milk immediately thought of that evening when the dog-headed people had tied her up for a long time as she saw the words on the priest’s head.
The rest of the players, on the other hand, looked surprised.
“Damn, why is there such a gigantic dog-headed person?”
“Is that a wild Boss? It’s huge!”
“Let’s go, let’s fight him!”
The players were fearless of death as the Rookie Village was behind them, and they could revive there if they were killed.
It was nothing for their level to drop since they had low levels. They could level up anytime while killing a Boss would get them handsome rewards. They would be lucky to obtain Boss equipment.
Apart from White Milk and Lingering Sweetness, who were there and knew that those gigantic dog-headed people were extraordinary, the rest had no idea that they had long software bugs on them.
The two girls looked at each other and chose to retreat. They did not join the fight with the other players.
The gigantic dog-headed person was fearless, whereby he waved his walking stick hard at a player’s head.
Bang!
– 3,000!
A meat shield player was killed directly.
Bang! Another was killed.
Bang! Another player died.
He killed a player with each hit. He grinned and released a strange peal of laughter.
The dog-headed people behind him charged confidently. They were showing off their abilities while dancing.
The dog-headed people in the air flew by and killed a player with a normal attack.
The players did not retreat. Although more and more of them were killed, there were many of them. Many comments occupied the public channel, saying a wild Boss had arrived.
The players chatted with their good friends and brought more people into the team. It became crowded as more people hurried out of the Rookie Village.
The players from other leveling areas also came after reading the comments. None of them was retreating.
As long as one’s HP bar was revealed, they would kill even if it was a god. That was the players’ philosophy.
The two female players still dared not go up to fight the dog-headed people as they watched batches of players die one after another.
Firstly, they had close to zero equipment on them, meaning their attacks would be weak. Secondly, they had cast a psychological shadow on them, so they did not want to be beaten up or tied up again.
All of the players were fighting in the wild that night.
Two healing monsters had appeared among the dog-headed people. They had been healing the dog-headed people, allowing the tribe to not lose their upper hand as they fought the players for a few hours.
The two girls ran to another leveling area to reach their previous levels, as well as to obtain normal equipment.
It was late when they snuck back to the wild battle zone to watch the battle. The dog-headed tribe people were still fighting the players. Many players were beaten up so bad they were unrecognizable.
Compared to a few hours ago, there was equipment all over the ground, all belonging to the deceased players.
The present players did not have the desire to fight the Boss. Instead, they began picking things from the ground, indulging in it.
The dog-headed people noticed most of the players’ strange behavior. They picked up the equipment while dodging them instead of beating them up. Just like that, the dog-headed people picked up the items and piled them up aside.
That was right—they picked up the items and piled all of them aside. They got their people to guard the items, stopping the players from picking them up.
If players attempted to steal the equipment, the Boss’ staff would hit and kill them.
The players gathered and came up with a collaboration mode—five players would distract the monsters, while two players would steal.
However, the dog-headed people busted their plan directly. They would not chase after those players that they failed to beat up. They guarded the defensive line in determination, prohibiting anyone from coming in.
The players were stunned. They had never seen any NPCs that would pick up equipment, as well as preventing players from stealing them.
“Holy sh*t, have they gained superpowers? They’re picking up equipment and preventing players from stealing. We can’t even pull aggro.”
“Damn, that’s advanced intelligence. Why would there be such intelligent monsters in a low-level area?”
In the virtual reality game world, the more intelligent an NPC was, the more computing resources would be used in the background. Therefore, highly intelligent NPCs were usually used in the high-level areas.
However, the different thing about this game compared to other games was that the NPCs could pick up equipment.
It was unbelievable!
The players were shocked, but the two female players who had experienced it had already gotten used to it.
“It’s taking so long.”
“I’m sleepy.”
The two female players were a little sleepy after playing for a couple of hours.
Ever since virtual reality games had been introduced, humans could sleep in the gaming pods for the entire time. They could choose to sleep in the virtual reality game too.
The gaming pods had a sleep aid function. Three-hour deep sleep in the game world was the equivalent of eight-hour sleep for ordinary people. It could maximize the time the players played in the virtual reality game.
Both of them returned to their house in the Rookie Village and closed the door. Nobody could go in without the house owner’s authorization.
White Milk tucked herself in her blanket and slept on the big, soft bed.
The virtual reality pod’s sleep aid module detected the players’ sleep signal and began releasing sleep aid brainwaves to affect the players’ brain to release fast deep sleep signals.
White Milk girl was fast asleep very soon.
Suddenly, she heard the noise of ocean waves, while her body felt wet as if it was soaked in water. At the same time, she could feel the direct sunlight’s heat above her head, as well as water pressuring her legs.
She opened her eyes in doubt and saw an endless blue ocean.
An Orange Planet citizen like her had never seen an endless blue ocean. She was shocked.
Before she realized she was soaked in ocean water, a big wave came, and she swallowed a mouthful of salty ocean water.
“Ahh!”
Although her arms struggled, she sank into the ocean water. Unfortunately, struggling could not change the fact that she had sunk in the ocean water. She was gulping seawater and could not speak.
She opened her eyes wide and watched the shining blue ocean’s level getting farther away. A muscular marine lifeform was swimming over and bit her with its mouth wide opened.
The pain of death was tearing her heart apart.
“Ahh, ahh, no!”
White Milk opened her eyes and screamed in terror immediately.
There was no water in her mouth. She stretched both her arms into the sky in panic. The blue ocean water hit her body again, and she swallowed another mouthful of seawater.
Gulp…
She struggled a little too much. White Milk fell in a daze as she looked at the endless ocean water drowning her. She had no idea what happened.
A shark came charging with its mouth wide open.
“Ah!”
White Milk woke up again.
The endless blue ocean still surrounded her. The seawater was flowing with great danger.
This time, White Milk realized that she had been revived.
As long as she died in the ocean, she would be revived in the ocean.
She closed her mouth and held her breath. Although it was not as worse as the two times before, White Milk could not escape the ending of being drowned since she could not swim.
Gulp, gulp.
White Milk opened her eyes again when she was revived for the fourth time.
The blue ocean was endless, while the sky was so clean as if it was washed. The bright sun was hanging high, releasing scorching sunlight.
White Milk sank to the bottom of the ocean again and drowned in the seawater. She could not breathe and would experience tearing pain when the marine lifeforms ate her.
She was not a hardcore game player. The seventh time the ocean water dream happened, White Milk recalled she was sleeping in the game.
‘Why would I dream of such terrifying things when I sleep in the game?’
“Get me out, get me out of here!” The girl called out to the game system with her consciousness. She wanted to get the logout button to show, but the virtual reality game’s system did not show.
No matter how much White Milk was screaming, she could not change the fact that she was stuck in the blue ocean.
At the same time, the other female player, Lingering Sweetness, was stuck in the blue ocean as well. It was endless, and she had no idea when this would be over.
