…

John looked at his attributes. He wasn’t just strong; he was terrifyingly powerful.

His current spirit and strength attributes were comparable to those of a level 60 third-tier warrior or mage.

The only shortcoming was his constitution attribute, which was only at 175 points.

However, John made up for this with his extremely high agility and the defensive skill Rock Armor, which entirely compensated for his lack of defense.

Furthermore, with the B-grade physical damage increase, his base physical damage had already surpassed his magic damage.

Both his magical and physical attacks were overwhelmingly powerful.

Ping!

Just then, John received a private message from Ritchie.

Ritchie: “Godslayer, how did you level up so quickly? You’re second on the leaderboard!”

John opened the level leaderboard.

[1st: Dark Angel, Assassin, Level 30]

[2nd: Godslayer, Wrath of the Gods Mage, Level 29]

[3rd: Ritchie, Earth Knight, Level 28]

…

Sure enough, John had reached the second place on the level leaderboard.

Fortunately, the leaderboard didn’t display detailed information, so his secondary profession as a Nightmare Assassin remained hidden.

This was his secret weapon, not to be easily exposed.

Ritchie’s level had dropped to third place, at level 28.

The first place, Dark Angel, had already reached level 30 but was still a first-tier Assassin.

Level 30 required a second-tier advancement trial, which was quite challenging.

Most hidden profession players needed to team up to complete it, let alone Dark Angel, who was just an ordinary Assassin.

Ritchie: “Godslayer, isn’t it time to fulfill our bet? If you can beat me, I’ll be your underling. Otherwise, you have to be my underling!”

Ritchie sent another private message. He had been waiting for this day for a long time.

He admired John’s strength and believed that having him as an underling would be very beneficial.

Ritchie was very confident, knowing that the world of Gods wasn’t just a simple game. Real-life strength transferred into the game.

He coming from an Army family, he had been pushed by his grandfather and uncle to undergo various physical training, even learning a basic Ancient Martial Arts mental technique.

It’s no exaggeration to say that his strength was comparable to a military elite.

Beating an ordinary person would be no challenge.

Godslayer: “Alright, half an hour later, meet at Jade City!”

John readily agreed. Since Ritchie was so eager to be his underling, he wouldn’t refuse.

Cities are connected by teleportation arrays, which allow for mutual transfer, though the cost is somewhat high.

Each teleportation costs 10 silver coins.

This amount is negligible for Ritchie.

John closed the private chat and looked at the silent, deep passage. For a moment, he was stunned and muttered in confusion, “Why am I still here?”

After completing the trial, he should have been teleported out of this space.

John was worried; what if he was trapped here?

There were no teleportation arrays, and he didn’t have any spatial skills to leave.

Fortunately, this wasn’t an enclosed space, and the light at the end of the passage attracted John’s attention.

Maybe that was the exit.

With no more dangers in the passage, John quickly made his way through and soon reached the source of the light.

Outside, everything was shrouded in mist, not looking like an exit. It seemed to connect to an unknown area, giving him a sense of extreme danger.

Looking back at the dark, deep passage, he had no other way to go.

“Let’s take a look!” John muttered to himself. Earth elements gathered, forming a Rock Armor that enveloped him.

Whoosh!

John took a step forward, and the surrounding mist surged. Gale-force winds lashed at him, causing stinging pain all over his body; the Rock Armor was useless.

-10

-10

…

Damage numbers floated above John’s head.

“True damage!” John was alarmed. This mist was too bizarre; it ignored both physical and magical resistance, dealing true damage.

Although it only dealt 10 points of damage per second, with only 1800 points of health, he couldn’t last long.

John didn’t dare stay any longer and turned to leave.

At that moment, a notification appeared.

[You have discovered a hidden, unopened map: Death Land]

[Detected that you possess blessings from the Temple of Magic and the Temple of the Night. You have received a Death Land Token, Contract Scroll1, and Attribute Fusion Stone1]

A hidden, unopened map?

John was puzzled. He had never heard of Death Land before, and the items rewarded were unfamiliar.

He checked each item’s attributes.

[Death Land Token: A pass to enter Death Land. Refining it will seal your life within Death Land. Current power is too weak to refine.]

[Death Land: The sacred land of the dark elves, possessing strange and powerful forces. No life can survive here, except dark elves.]

[Note: This place is sealed with numerous powerful monsters by the dark elves, forcing them to submit to the dark elves…]

[Contract Scroll: Can be used to make a soul contract with any being, ensuring eternal loyalty.]

[Attribute Fusion Stone: Allows early integration of your in-game attributes into the real world, excluding equipment bonuses.]

Integrate attributes into the real world early!

John was surprised and delighted as he looked at the Attribute Fusion Stone in his hand.

Normally, integrating player attributes into reality would only be possible when the world of Gods and the real world connected.

He never expected to find an item that could do this in advance.

John was certain that no one in the previous life had obtained an Attribute Fusion Stone, or it would have caused a massive upheaval.
