"A... King-tier BOSS!"

Xiao Wen's heart lurched.

King-tier BOSSes. He had encountered quite a few five years ago.

However, the King-tier BOSSes he had seen back then were generally level 50 and above. This one, however, was only level 15.

Yet, Xiao Wen did not underestimate it in the slightest.

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

"Awooo!"

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

"Where are my generals!"

Roar!

Hiss!

Meow!

Moo!

Four Lord-class BOSSes responded with low growls, and the monsters behind them echoed the growls.

"This Emperor will recover to Emperor-tier here. You shall all restrain your strength, and in one month, we will flatten the Novice Village!" the Blood Moon Demon Wolf declared.

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

The system prompt startled Xiao Wen, who was still in shock. Seizing the moment while the monsters were engrossed in their fanaticism, he extricated himself and fled Nightmare Forest.

"One month from now, the monsters attack the village. This time, 'Phantom Gods' has indeed made significant changes compared to the previous game. A monster attack led by an Emperor-tier BOSS... this is truly quite interesting!"

While contemplating these matters, Xiao Wen had already exited Nightmare Forest. He ran straight back to the Novice Village without stopping.

The entrance to the Novice Village was as lively as ever. A large crowd of players, either in groups or scattered, were fighting over low-level monsters. Players came and went around them, occasionally letting out a shout.

Xiao Wen entered the village and walked towards the center. Seeing the Novice Village Chief, who was almost submerged by players, his face darkened.

Damn it! I can't believe that I, a top-tier player, would be reduced to this situation of fighting for space.

With Herculean effort, Xiao Wen finally managed to squeeze his way through.

Not far away, the Village Chief looked at Xiao Wen, who had pushed his way in, and a smile appeared on his face. "Youth is indeed full of vitality. Young man returning from your trials, is there anything the old man can help you with? The current quests here are not suitable for your level."

Xiao Wen grinned. "Village Chief, I have an important piece of intelligence to tell you, which you will surely find interesting."

"Intelligence?" The Village Chief sneered. "Young man, you might not believe this, but I am known as the 'Informant' both inside and outside this Novice Village. There is nothing I don't know. Of course, if you are willing to pay the corresponding amount of money, I can point you towards quests suitable for your level."

When he mentioned money, the Village Chief's eyes suddenly gleamed.

Xiao Wen's face darkened. "In Nightmare Forest, there is a King-tier BOSS that will evolve into an Emperor-tier in one month, triggering a monster tide and initiating a monster attack on the village."

As Xiao Wen delivered the message, the smile on the Village Chief's face froze. He stared intently at Xiao Wen, his mouth twitching.

"Yo... young man, are you serious? You can't joke about something like this!" the Village Chief's tone suddenly became serious.

"Of course, it's true."

"Young man, I need to verify this intelligence. If what you say is true, then the intelligence you've brought back is extremely valuable, and I will give you a treasure I've been cherishing."

As the Village Chief spoke, a series of lights suddenly emanated from him. These lights pushed away all the surrounding players, clearing a path. Then, the Village Chief took off at an incredibly fast speed, disappearing from everyone's sight.

"I... What the hell! The NPC ran away?"

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

"What are you complaining about? I just paid this old man twenty silver coins to hear about the love story between Ah Hua next door and the wandering poet!"

A group of players watched the Village Chief's disappearing back, a thousand unspoken curses swirling in their hearts.

Xiao Wen shrugged, unconcerned. While the other players were still bewildered, he emerged from the crowd.

He hadn't walked far when a large figure appeared in his vision.

It was a Fist Master named [Fist Overlord]. He was burly and also level six, the same as Xiao Wen.

But when he appeared before Xiao Wen, there was an aura of dominance that ordinary players lacked.

"Halfway Through the Mortal World. So it's you, kid. If you're a man, come with me! Let's have a 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 was momentarily stunned, his expression immediately darkening.

"You brat, don't refuse a toast only to be forced to drink a forfeit! If you push me too far, I'll camp at the village entrance and hunt you down until you're level zero! Don't think getting a hidden profession through sheer luck is anything great. Over the years, I've killed plenty of hidden profession players with my fists."

"Fists? It seems you're planning to get rough. In that case, I'll accompany you," Xiao Wen said with a relaxed expression, crossing his arms.

Without even waiting for Fist Overlord to lead the way, he casually walked out of the village.

Fist Overlord was taken aback, a glint flashing in his eyes. He followed closely behind Xiao Wen as they walked out.

He had naturally heard about Xiao Wen killing a Lord-class BOSS. However, from his godson's description, this brat had just gotten lucky, stumbling into it.

Such luck wouldn't happen again with him!

After all, the strength of top players was incomparable to those rigid, low-tier monsters.

Following Xiao Wen out of the village, they arrived at a secluded spot. Fist Overlord narrowed his eyes, staring at Xiao Wen. "You brat, you've got guts. You actually dare to lead me out of the Novice Village. Aren't you afraid I'll kill you right here?"

"Just you?" Xiao Wen held up his index finger, shaking it left and right. "Not enough. You're too weak."

"Weak?"

Fist Overlord's face darkened. He was, after all, a top-tier player. While he couldn't compare to the Four Emperors, when his brothers joined forces, even King-tier existences would have to retreat.

Even if he wasn't a match for a King-tier existence alone, he was still a top-tier player below King-tier!

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

At most, less than a hundred!

Considering this, he was at least among the top hundred in Kyushu, yet this kid dared to call him trash?

"You brat, I'm going to crush your head!"

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

Xiao Wen shifted his stance, stepping to the side to evade. However, just as he took half a step back, his body suddenly stopped, pulled by an inexplicable force, and he was drawn towards Fist Overlord's fist.

"What? How is this possible!" Xiao Wen was shocked.

"You brat, daring to look down on me! I'll take you down with one combo!"
