"Ki... King-tier BOSS!"

Xiao Wen's heart lurched!

He had seen quite a few King-tier BOSSES five years ago.

But the King-tier BOSSES he had seen back then were basically all above level 50, while this one was only level 15.

Yet Xiao Wen did not underestimate it in the slightest because of that.

The lower the level and the higher the rank, the greater the opponent's growth potential.

"Awoo!"

The Blood Moon Demon Wolf howled at the sky. Before Xiao Wen's stunned gaze, it spoke in human words. "This emperor has finally descended. Novice Village? Seeds of hope? In that case, this emperor will crush your hopes one by one!"

"Where are my generals!"

Roar!

Hiss! Hiss!

Meow!

Moo!

The four Lord-class BOSSES answered with low growls, and the monsters behind them followed suit.

"This emperor shall recover my imperial rank here. Restrain your strength. In one month, flatten Novice Village!" the Blood Moon Demon Wolf said in human speech.

Ding! Congratulations to player Halfway Through the Mortal World for successfully obtaining intelligence. Please deliver the intelligence back to Novice Village.

The system prompt snapped Xiao Wen out of his shock. While the monsters were swept up in fervor, he slipped away and sprinted out of Nightmare Forest.

Monster Village Attack in one month. This time, "Phantom God" really has made enormous changes compared to the previous game. A Monster Village Attack led by an Emperor-tier BOSS... now that's interesting!

By the time he finished considering these matters, Xiao Wen had already left Nightmare Forest. Without stopping along the way, he raced straight back to Novice Village.

The entrance to Novice Village was as lively as ever. Large groups of players, whether in parties or alone, clustered around low-level monsters and fought to kill them. Players came and went all around, occasionally letting out a few howls.

Xiao Wen entered the village and headed toward its center. When he saw the Novice Village chief almost swallowed by the crowd of players, his face darkened.

Damn it! Who would've thought that a top-tier player like me would end up fighting for space in a crowd?

After an exhausting struggle, Xiao Wen finally squeezed his way in.

Not far away, the village chief looked at the Xiao Wen who had squeezed through and smiled faintly. "Youth certainly has energy. Young man returned from your adventures, is there something this old man can help you with? The tasks I currently have aren't suitable for someone of your level."

Xiao Wen grinned. "Village Chief, I have some important intelligence to tell you. You'll definitely be interested."

"Intelligence?" The village chief sneered. "Young man, you may not believe it, but in and around this Novice Village, this old man is practically an omniscient scholar. There is nothing I do not know. Of course, if you are willing to pay the appropriate sum, I can point you toward tasks suited to your level."

When he mentioned money, the village chief's eyes suddenly gleamed greedily.

Xiao Wen's face darkened. "There is a King-tier BOSS in Nightmare Forest. In one month, it will transform into an Emperor-tier BOSS. By then, it will trigger a monster tide and cause a Monster Village Attack."

As Xiao Wen threw out that piece of information, the smile on the village chief's face froze instantly. His eyes locked onto Xiao Wen, and the corner of his mouth twitched.

"Y-young man, are you serious? This isn't something you can joke about!" The village chief's tone abruptly turned solemn.

"Of course it's true."

"Young man, I need to verify this intelligence. If what you said is true, then the information you brought back is extremely valuable. I will give you one of my treasured items."

As the village chief spoke, rays of light suddenly burst from his body. The light shoved all the crowded players around him away, clearing a path. Then the village chief broke into a run and vanished from everyone's sight with astonishing speed.

"F... fuck! The NPC ran away?"

"Fuck, I haven't even turned in my quest yet! Why did the NPC run off?"

"What's that compared to me? I just gave that old man 20 silver coins and was about to hear about Ah Hua next door and the wandering poet's love story!"

As the players watched the village chief's disappearing figure, they had ten thousand curses in their hearts but did not know whether they should say them.

Xiao Wen shrugged, unconcerned. While the players were still dumbfounded, he slipped out of the crowd.

He had not gone far when a hulking man entered his view.

It was a Fist Master named Fist Overlord. He was powerfully built and also level six, the same as Xiao Wen.

Yet when he appeared before Xiao Wen, he carried an imposing presence that ordinary players lacked.

"Halfway Through the Mortal World. You're the brat, then. If you're a man, come with me! Let's have a little talk," Fist Overlord said.

"I'm a boy, not a man. So I'm not going."

Xiao Wen rolled his eyes and refused outright.

Fist Overlord froze briefly, and his face immediately darkened.

"You little brat, don't refuse a toast only to drink a forfeit! Piss me off, and I'll camp at the village entrance and kill you until you're back to level zero! Don't think getting a hidden class through dumb luck makes you so impressive. Over the years, plenty of hidden-class players have died under my fists."

"Fists? Looks like you're planning to use force. In that case, I'll go with you." Xiao Wen folded his arms, looking completely relaxed.

He did not even wait for Fist Overlord to lead the way before heading out of the village on his own.

Fist Overlord paused, a gleam flashing through his eyes, then followed Xiao Wen out.

He had naturally heard about Xiao Wen killing a Lord-class BOSS. But according to his godson's description, the brat had simply stumbled into it through sheer luck.

That kind of luck would not save him here!

After all, the strength of top-tier players was not something those low-level, rigid monsters could compare to.

Following Xiao Wen out of the village, the two arrived at a secluded corner. Fist Overlord narrowed his eyes and stared at Xiao Wen. "Brat, you've got guts. You actually dared to lead me out of Novice Village. Aren't you afraid I'll kill you here?"

"You?" Xiao Wen raised his index finger and wagged it from side to side. "Not enough. You're too weak."

"Weak?"

Fist Overlord's face darkened. He was a top-tier player, after all. Though he could not compare to the Four Emperors, when he and his brothers joined forces, even King-tier beings had to avoid them.

Even if he alone was no match for a King-tier being, he was still one of the strongest players beneath that rank!

How many players above King-tier were there in all of Jiuzhou?

Even counting them all, there were probably fewer than a hundred.

That meant he was at least among the top hundred in Jiuzhou, yet this brat dared call him trash?

"Brat, I'll crush your head!"

Fist Overlord's face darkened as he threw a punch at Xiao Wen.

Xiao Wen shifted to the side on one foot, retreating sideways. But just as he had moved back half a step, his body stopped. An inexplicable pulling force dragged him toward Fist Overlord's fist instead.

"What? How is this possible?!" Xiao Wen's face was filled with shock.

"Brat, you dared look down on me? I'll kill you with one combo!"
