The fiery red sun gradually rose and the sky brightened.
On the wet grass, the morning dew dripped from the leaves on the high ground onto Osmond’s forehead. Osmond slowly opened his eyes, revealing his golden pupils.
He wondered how the other players were doing. Osmond opened the public chat and took a look.
“Let’s find a place to rest first.”
“I’m too hungry…”
“Hehe, I killed a Flame Rabbit.”
“Big boss, don’t kill me!”
“I’ll stay in the water for a while.”
“…”
After a night, the notifications on the public screen had already reached 10,000+. One could imagine that many things had happened that night.
Looking at the current number of players, it showed 6 billion.
All players had a three-day novice protection period. In these three days, even if they were killed, they would not lose their qualifications to play the game.
The Gopher that Osmond killed last night was not really killed either. It had been reactivated by the system.
Obviously, during the three days of novice protection, the system gave all the players a chance to make mistakes.
Although it was the novice protection period, and one could be reborn after death, Osmond did not take this matter to heart. He thought that he was the strongest, and his pride would never allow him to be killed by other players.
Due to the strength of his bloodline, Osmond had killed a Gopher that was three levels higher than him in one night and obtained victory by crushing it. However, he had to admit that he himself did not have much combat experience.
Osmond said, “Since the Abyssal Dragon Demon King is gifted, how can I maximize my innate advantage? Now that I’m in the three-day protection period, why don’t I boldly test out my strength?”
Thus, Osmond looked around for opponents to train himself.
Not long after, a loud sound came from not far away.
“Boom…”
“What happened?” Osmond wondered.
Then, he flew toward the source of the sound. It was a large forest.
“Shua… Pa…”
A black bear was using a lot of strength to continuously hit the bushes. A patch had already fallen in front of him.
Osmond flapped his wings in the air, and the golden bracelet lit up.
[Player: Hill]
[Race: Earth War Bear (War Bear)]
[Level: 2]
[Attributes: Earth, Grass]
[Talent: Physical Attack 40, Physical Defense 40, Magic Attack 20, Magic Defense 30, Speed 40]
[Skills: Tear, Berserk Fist, Psionic Awakening (Not yet activated)]
“This guy reached Level 2 in just one day,” Osmond said in surprise.
Osmond, on the other hand, was still at level 0. Hill’s growth rate was actually quite unbelievable.
Then, Osmond flew down and stood behind Hill.
At this time, Hill was training to improve his striking ability, and the bushes were his training targets.
Hill found Osmond nearby.
“Who’s there?” Hill asked in confusion.
Hill walked over and asked Osmond with disdain.
“Who are you?”
“Abyssal Dragon Demon King Osmond” replied confidently.
“Perfect timing. I was just worrying about not having anyone to practice on.”
Hill struck Osmond like a tree trunk.
“Whoosh…”
Hill then raised his fist and punched Osmond with all his might. Osmond did not have time to react and was punched hard.
“Where are your manners!” asked Osmond angrily.
Osmond hurriedly jumped up, flapped his wings, and flew six meters into the air. Then he bent down, raised his sharp claws, and slapped.
Seeing this, Hill dodged to the side and began to counterattack.
“Roar…”
Hill beat his chest frantically before charging toward Osmond at lightning speed.
Seeing this, Osmond turned and went behind Hill, making Hill dizzy.
“Good opportunity!”
Osmond shouted.
Then, Hill was kicked away by Osmond.
Hill fell to the ground.
This kick caused Hill to be severely injured, and he spat out a few mouthfuls of blood.
“So, do you surrender?” Osmond said confidently.
Hill saw that although this kid’s level hadn’t increased, his strength wasn’t any weaker than his. He had even been severely injured.
“Kid, you’re amazing,” Hill replied breathlessly.
“No discord, no concord. You’re not bad either. Why don’t we team up? I’ll be the boss, and you have to listen to me in the future,” Osmond said coldly.
Osmond felt that there must be a reason why Hill’s level had risen so quickly, so he wanted to rope Hill to his side.
At this moment, Hill felt that he was about to die. He fell asleep and did not answer Osmond.
“Since we’re fated, I won’t kill you first,” said Osmond kindly.
Then, Osmond grabbed Hill and flew deeper into the forest.
He didn’t see Hill as an enemy, but as a teammate. In this world, there was always someone better than you. Osmond realized that it was impossible to rely on himself alone. They were on the same side of the demon king and shared a common enemy. Their final mission was to destroy the Locke Kingdom. Osmond had not forgotten about the mission.
It had to be said that Osmond went a little hard on Hill just now, but he was still a team player.
Someone posted on the public chat.
“I almost died!”
“Hahahaha, I really am a battle genius. I killed a Rainbow Spider!”
“F*ck, I finally leveled up!”
“…”
On the second day after coming to this world, most of the players had all gotten a hang of it.
Hill slowly woke up after three hours of sleep.
He was surprised that Osmond had saved him.
Osmond said slightly,
“You’re pretty tough to still be alive after being kicked by me.”
Hill knew that if Osmond had not shown mercy, he would have died long ago.
Hill seemed to have changed his opinion of Osmond.
He thought that in this world, there was no other choice but to kill.
So, when they saw Osmond just now, they fought.
From the looks of it now, he had been too narrow-minded.
Hill was lucky to be Osmond’s first comrade.
“Ding dong, Stamina +1”
“Ding dong, Stamina +1”
“…”
Hill’s strength was gradually recovering.
He wondered how the other players were doing.
Osmond opened the public screen.
“No one can beat me.”
“Go to hell…”
“Anyone alive? Someone come fight me to the death!”
“…”
As far as the current situation was concerned, very few players were interested in teaming up like Osmond.
Based on this alone, Osmond seemed to be more broad-minded.
Although Osmond had a powerful racial bloodline, he did not use it to mess around.
To become the strongest ruler in the world, one not only needed strength, but also a powerful team.
