Only I Can Recharge Money in This Game - Chapter 23
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
A warrior standing in the middle slashed his sword randomly. Suddenly, someone knocked away the sword in his hand. Nothing was in front of him, with only red damage indicator floating in the air.
– 7
It startled the warrior, making him freeze for a moment. But he quickly reacted and shouted, “Heavenly Cloud is in front of me. I hit him.”
A number appeared above Su Jin’s head. His level, equipment, and warrior class had a high defense, high attack damage, and a high HP. He didn’t care about that little bit of damage.
Before the warrior could say anything else, Su Jin slayed him with one slash instantly.
Then, Su Jin rushed into the crowd and charged. His target was the guild leaders of the three guilds. He wanted to slay the three of them with one slash.
Tyrant Knight squinted his eyes and roared, “Charge! Attack! Slay Heavenly Cloud!”
“Attack indiscriminately! Don’t be afraid of hitting our men! I’ll add another 50,000 gold coins!”
After saying that, he retreated while distributing the reward in the guild channel.
As the guild leader, he was the image of the guild. Tyrant Knight could not die at this moment. Otherwise, there would be no one commanding the players. The scene would be in chaos. No player would join in the battle if he were dead.
The vice president of the Tyrant Guild stood at the most eye-catching spot to take over the command.
Under the circumstances where no one cared about each other’s HP, a few damage values would appear from time to time in the empty spots. Of course, most of the players who died were members of the Tyrant Guild. They would turn into white light and return to the resurrection point when Su Jin hit them.
Unfortunately, Su Jin’s luck was not good this time. His [ Fighting aura Domain ] did not activate this time.
As the number of people charging increased, Su Jin’s solo show could only end there. The guild players surrounded him and approached him. They were already like iron barrels locking him in the middle, leaving him no gap to escape.
The guild players might slay Su Jin unless he could activate his Fighting Aura Domain again.
“Today is the day you die, Heavenly Cloud. If there is a first time, there will be a second and third time soon. Don’t ever think you can go against the guilds! Go to Hell.”
“I will use your death to tell all the solo players that there is no way to survive if they go against us!”
Only then did Tyrant Knight reveal himself. He stood at a high place and looked at the distance. After Heavenly Cloud had killed so many of his players, everything was finally coming to an end.
..
At that moment, a sudden rumbling sound came from within the village. It was rapidly approaching the village entrance.
The players subconsciously looked in the sound direction as it grew louder. Then, they saw a strange scene.
More than twenty NPCs from the novice village rushed out. They held a weapon or a farming tool each to use in combat.
Even the village chief, who had always been smiling, had changed into a new set of clothes. He wore a black mage robe and held a magic staff that flickered with a green light in his hand. His speed was fast when he ran.
Behind the village chief, the blacksmith was holding a heavy sword. The female merchant who sold potions carried a longbow with wood patterns. The defensive equipment merchant was wearing plate armor, carrying a heavy shield, and the weapon merchant was holding a long spear. The ordinary villagers in the village were holding hoes.
That group of NPCs’ goal was clear. They headed towards Tyrant Guild, the Greed Wolf Guild, and the Assassin Guild. Their direction had not changed at all.
“What the f*ck is going on? Can someone explain what is going on?”
Tyrant Knight was stunned for a moment before asking loudly.
They were about to surround and annihilate Heavenly Cloud. That was not something Tyrant Knight wanted to see when they were so close to succeeding.
Those NPCs were very different from what he usually saw. It was an unexpected situation!
Soon, the village chief arrived at the outermost circle of the guild players. Without saying a word, he waved the magic staff in his hand. Light enveloped an area of 30 meters before him and slowly formed into a spell formation.
The blacksmith who followed closely behind held his sword with both hands, and a fighting aura burst out from his body. He charged toward the crowd as he shouted, “[ Fighting aura Domain ]!”
The Fighting Aura Domain of an advanced warrior was much stronger than a low-level warrior like Su Jin. The range was extended to thirty meters, revealing an invisible fighting aura, killing all living things within the attack range.
“Beware of my [ Arrows of Falling Stars ] !”
“[ Shield Strike ] !”
The NPCs in the village immediately released all sorts of skills as they charged towards Tyrant Knight and the other guild players.
Most of them were still around Level 5, while the NPCs were at Level 20. Like a flock of sheep meeting a wolf, they did not have the slightest ability to resist. Soon, the NPC slayed all of them.
The players turned into white light and returned to their resurrection points. On the spot, a few pieces of low-grade equipment dropped.
The guild leaders of the three guilds were naturally no exception.
“Isn’t there any customer service in New World? F*ck! Get the F*ck out here! What’s going on? Why did the NPC attack us? Explain yourself.”
Tyrant Knight cursed loudly in the world channel when he was back at the resurrection point.
Tyrant Knight was certain that he had never provoked any NPC. Attacking Heavenly Cloud was the matter between players. He could not understand why the NPCs would attack them.
“This game isn’t fair. Why are the NPCs helping Heavenly Cloud?”
“Could it be that Heavenly Cloud is the son of the boss who created this game?”
“Spat! What kind of lousy game is this? I would have quitted this game if it were not because I could earn money through it.”
“Village chief, please don’t slay me!”
The guild players howled in grief. In the end, they turned into white lights and left.
… ..
Behind them stood the solo players and Rosette Guild members. The shocking scene made them freeze in a daze. None of them knew what was going on.
Tyrant Guild, Assassin Guild, and Greed Wolf Guild had brought over a thousand people to besiege Heavenly Cloud at the village entrance. But in the end, the group of NPCs slayed them without even explaining why they did that.
After a while, the village chief who had cast a spell formation walked toward Heavenly Cloud and held his hands, “Adventurer, as an outstanding villager of our village, we absolutely won’t allow you to suffer any harm.”
All the players stood in a daze.
Only now did they notice that there was a special prefix, [ Novice Village Outstanding Villager ] on Su Jin’s player ID. They realized that the title might be why the NPCs in Novice Village protected Heavenly Cloud.
..
“Thank you, the village chief. I’m deeply grateful for that.”
It touched Su Jin when the NPCs came to rescue, and he even got the buff from the villagers. It seemed that the [ Novice Village Outstanding Villager ] title was powerful.
In that case, Su Jin wondered if he could hide the title and use it to set a trap for the three guilds again the next time.
Su Jin thought about the matter, but he did not say it out.
After a short conversation, Su Jin bid farewell to the village chief and the villagers. He looked at the equipment on the ground. Most of them were low-grade and bronze equipment and a few pieces of silver equipment.
Su Jin picked them all up. He planned to sell them.
Soon, a silver necklace caught Su Jin’s attention.
[ Wolf’s Fang Necklace ]
Quality: Silver.
Attributes: + 5 Defense, + 20 Attack.
Skills: [ Wolverine Shadow ]. Using it will help the player summon a Wolverine Shadow from the shadows. The player can ride the Wolverine Shadow and also command it to attack. The number of uses: 3/100.
It was a piece of equipment that had an active skill, and it also had a riding function.
The riding function had yet to appear. It was cool to own a ride, even though it was only a wolf shadow.
The Novice map seemed to be restricting the necklace’s usage, which was only a hundred times. Su Jin could use it as a shield, according to the description. It was a great auxiliary to attract the monster’s aggro like the Shadow Warrior.
That would be useful for Su Jin. He could use it to raid the dungeon..
