Summerwater City.
Wiki Harbor.
Stepping onto the last boat heading to Dragon Island, Yan Yan took a heavy breath after running, glancing at the NP Sailor standing or lying on the deck, and silently walked into the cabin.
The cramped and stuffy cabin felt like the basement she used to live in. Sighing, she turned back to the deck.
Finding a secluded corner in the darkness, she sat down against the edge of the ship and began to rest.
Currently, the largest vessel of Zero Point was this very ship beneath her. The image of the narrow cabin flashed through her mind, and her expression darkened; transporting such a massive amount of supplies was far from enough.
Annie's blueprints were urgent.
All around her was the sound of crashing waves.
The salty smell of seawater surged into her nostrils, and memories seemed to drift back to a time when she had been helplessly floating on the surface of the sea, struggling.
Rocks tied around her waist weighed heavily, pulling her down. No matter how hard she kicked with her feet or paddled with her hands, the salty water continuously submerged her mouth and nose until it reached the top of her head.
A strong sense of suffocation filled her lungs, causing her mind to feel dizzy. Countless memories from her past flashed before her eyes; in despair, she could only watch the people on the deck of the ship with resentment and unwillingness before losing consciousness...
In her emotionless eyes lay a stillness akin to a stagnant pool of water, and the silence surrounding her made the secluded corner even darker.
"Let go of me—!"
"If you're coming with us, you better know your place and hand over your weapons; otherwise, we'll kill you and send you back to the newbie village."
"Shameless! You are nothing but robbers—"
"Hey there, little sister, it looks like we're really robbers now. Hand over your bow and arrows, or we'll really take you back to the newbie village~"
A girl’s voice, tinged with a whimper and malicious intent, broke the silence of the night.
The Sailors watched coldly as this group of Outsiders argued, showing no intention of intervening.
A few players sitting at the end of the deck shrank back, seemingly losing their nerve in the face of overwhelming numbers.
"Shut up already—"
A cold voice suddenly cut through the noisy bickering.
Yan Yan stood up, her bow in hand. The moment the Golden Longbow emerged from the dark corner, its intoxicating golden glow instantly caught the robbers' attention.
One of them, known as Abandoned Gunslinger, greed flashed in his eyes as he swallowed hard. He released the girl he had been gripping tightly, rubbed his hands together, and said menacingly, "Well well, here comes another big fat sheep—"
His gaze was glued to the Golden Longbow without a hint of distraction.
"Big brother, she looks tough. Maybe we should just let this go?"
Thin Thief tightened his grip on his dagger with one hand while tugging at his companion's sleeve with the other, nervously glancing at his expressionless face.
"What are you afraid of? It's just us on this ship; who cares if she calls for help? Heh heh—today is going to be a big haul."
"Seriously, what are we afraid of? There are four of us; we can't handle just two women? If it weren't for this damn game not allowing it, we could—heh heh~"
The lewd voice dripped from a mouth full of yellow teeth as his gaze roamed between the two girls. He twisted his body and slowly approached the girl standing with her bow drawn.
The Lord's Gift was nearly in tears. If it weren't for her desire to quickly complete her task and level up her Alchemy skill, she wouldn't have joined any random crew to set sail.
Fortunately, the Zero Point protection for women by the System was in place; otherwise—
The consequences would be unimaginable.
It was all her fault. She was weak and eager to complete the mission to obtain the formula, disregarding the fairy's obstruction and insisting on going online to finish the task. Now, it seemed she would incur a significant loss of money and drag that girl down with her. What should she do?
Suddenly, the lewd man under Id Fat Meat Pigeon let out a scream, and then he flew into the air, his head crashing hard against the ground, immediately displaying a -15 Red Damage Value above him.
As a tanky warrior, a single Flying Kick had taken away a large chunk of his Health Points.
"Damn it, Brat, you asked for it! Let’s go, birds!"
There were only three people in front of her: two warriors and one rogue. The discarded pistol had mentioned they had four members; that fourth person was likely another rogue, still in Stealth mode.
With Perception maxed out, even the slightest fluctuations in the air could not escape her keen ears and sharp eyes.
Suddenly!
The air on her right twisted, and a wave of Killing Intent rushed toward her!
“Ding—”
The incoming dagger struck hard against her Golden Longbow.
The attack was blocked, and for a fleeting moment, shock flashed in the opponent's eyes before they quickly regained their composure.
Stun Baton!
Dodge—
Dodging to the left, Yan Yan avoided the opponent's Stun Baton while thrusting forward with her Longbow. "Clang!" The sound echoed as she blocked the Waste Pistol and Fat Meat Pigeon's sword.
"Clang—"
After the bowstring twanged, a shadow shot into the abandoned pistol Chest, dealing -4 damage.
A gust of wind rushed by her ear; it was that thief!
Yan Yan lowered her gaze and quickly turned her head. With a swift slide, her body narrowly evaded the opponent's Chokehold.
This guy has some decent skills.
Suppressing her surprise, she wondered why a player of this caliber was mingling with three trashy ones.
Sweep Kick!
She knocked down Fat Meat Pigeon and the abandoned pistol, her eyes sharpening. Rapid Fire!
The Black Iron Arrow pierced into the throat of the abandoned pistol at an incredibly tricky angle.
-6
Critical Damage.
Critical Damage.
A flash of white light appeared as she executed a one-hit kill.
In disbelief, the stunned expression in her eyes faded as she vanished from everyone's sight.
"Bird, what are you doing! Attack now—"
Fat Meat Pigeon suppressed the fear rising in his chest, hiding the lewdness in his eyes as he trembled and forcefully pushed the Thief Bird towards Yan Yan's Arrow Tip.
"Puff—"
The trembling tail pierced through and embedded itself into the deck.
-68
The fragile blood of the thin-skinned thief was instantly extinguished.
A white light flickered as Fat Meat Pigeon stared at the spot where the bird had vanished, collapsing weakly onto the ground.
"Heart—"
A girl’s voice, still tinged with tears, suddenly rang out.
"Ding—"
With a swift motion, she raised her Longbow to block the Stun Baton coming from behind.
Soaring Kick!
The opponent sidestepped to evade the fierce attack, twisting their dagger in hand and slicing horizontally towards Yan Yan's slender throat.
Rolling!
In the instant of landing, her body rolled to evade the Chokehold that came from the front. As she got back on her feet, the Black Iron Arrow was released from its string.
FloatingArrow! The approaching black shadow was instantly Floating Arrow, and in the opponent's stiff and disbelieving eyes, "Whoosh——" Double Shot! Black Iron Arrow instantly nailed him to the cabin. -4, -48 White light turns on, instantaneously. Expressionless turned to the last Minion, his cold gaze was like the gaze of death. "Don't kill me, please! Leveling up is too difficult. We finally got out of the novice village." Fat Meat Pigeon His wretched face was filled with prayers, and he knelt on the ground, begging bitterly. "What do you think?" "Eh?" The girl, who had not yet reacted, stared blankly at the girl who was looking at her across the way. In less than a minute, the battle was over? Four people were killed? Amber’s big colored eyes were filled with confusion.
"How do you want to deal with him?"
The calm inquiry pulled her back from her drifting thoughts.
"Huh?!—"
Staring into the inky black eyes of the other person, shock surged in her amber eyes. She glanced at the Fat Meat Pigeon slumped on the ground, and her expression quickly shifted to one of utter disgust as she huffed, "Kill him! No—torture him first, then kill him!"
How dare he say something so vile!
"Mm."
With a swift movement, Soaring Kick, Flying Kick, Soaring Kick, Flying Kick, Sweep Kick...
-1, -14, -1, -...
After a few exchanges, Fat Meat Pigeon was kicked to death.
Indeed, an angry woman is a terrifying thing.
Dazed, she emerged from the Revival Point of the novice village, feeling as if every part of her body was still suffering from excruciating pain. Her limbs were limp and unresponsive as she collapsed to the ground, her eyes vacant like those of Fat Meat Pigeon.
"Hello, I'm The Lord's Gift," a delicate girl pointed to the ID above her head, beaming with a bright smile. The admiration and worship in her large amber eyes were unmistakable. "You're amazing! You took them all down and sent them back to the novice village in just a few moves!"
"Silent."
She replied lightly, glancing at the girl's shimmering golden weapon. Pressing her lips together, she said, "Golden weapons can conceal their aura; that way, they won't attract too much attention."
"Huh? Vina can hide its glow too?"
“Vina?”
“Ah, yes! I call all my weapons Vina~ I'm a seR in real life~ You know Desert Rose, right? I'm the official seR of the main character from that anime~ Vina is her weapon,” she said, bouncing over to the other person, skillfully linking arms while ignoring the sudden stiffness in their body. Cheerfully, she continued, “Yan Yan, you’re amazing~ As a fellow archer, I’m so inexperienced. Please teach me!”
The soft touch of the girl’s chest against her arm sent a jolt through Yan Yan. The faint scent of the girl wafted up to her nose, making her feel uneasy as she tried to pull away, only to be held tighter, her arm sinking deeper into the embrace...
Completely frozen, Yan Yan lost track of time as the girl chattered on with her bright Voice. Eventually, she was pulled down to sit, and just then, a flash of light tore through the night sky. The breathtaking view of the sunrise over the sea jolted her back to reality. Turning her head, she swallowed hard and prepared to continue sharing her experiences when she pointed towards the horizon, “The sunrise.”
“Wow, it’s so beautiful! I have to record this and show it to my fairy later! Oh, by the way, I have a good friend who’s a priest. She’s great at healing! We should go farm Skeleton Graveyard together! She also has a Cute Boyfriend, who’s a warrior—super strong! We can team up for dungeons and level up while farming gear. Wow—she can even be your dedicated healer!”
“Farming dungeons sounds good,” she paused for a moment before asking, “Are you here on Dragon Island for a quest?”
“Yeah! I took on a herb-gathering quest—” Before she could finish her sentence, her eyes widened in surprise. “How did you know? I haven’t been there yet~”
“Just a guess,” Yan Yan replied, her tone cooling slightly as she added, “Where did you form your party?”
“Um—at Wiki Harbor. They all run quests on Dragon Island, so they’re familiar with the map and were willing to take me along. But then—”
Pouting slightly, a flicker of grievance passed through the girl’s eyes. “The fairy told me to team up at the port. With so many players flooding into Main City, some bad people might act uncivilized. I didn’t expect to run into trouble.”
