Establishing Authority

Qin Chuan was not surprised by Dragon Soaring World's request.

He knew this man very well.

In reality, he was the heir to a multinational conglomerate, a top-tier second-generation rich heir who aspired to build Apocalypse's number one guild and had put in tremendous effort toward it.

Before Qin Chuan's rebirth, although Dragon Soaring Dynasty had failed to become the top guild, it had still ranked among the best.

This time, Qin Chuan had gotten the BOSS first kill and obtained quite a few items. It was impossible for Dragon Soaring World not to be tempted.

However, this guy was also quite proud and upright in his dealings, never resorting to petty tricks.

Qin Chuan clearly remembered that after Apocalypse began merging with Blue Star in his previous life, causing an enormous impact on the real world, Dragon Soaring World had contributed both money and manpower.

Perhaps he had intended to win people's hearts, but compared to those who did nothing at all, he was already far better.

If Qin Chuan had any equipment he could not use, selling it to him would not be a bad choice.

With that thought, Qin Chuan replied, "No problem."

Upon receiving Night Roaming God's reply, Dragon Soaring World relaxed and typed in the party chat, "Night Roaming God agreed."

Several teammates were quite excited as well.

The Giant Wild Rabbit was a Black Iron tier BOSS. The equipment it dropped would at least be Black Iron tier, and the level requirements would not be too high either. In Newbie Village, such items were practically Divine Artifacts.

If their party could get one or two pieces, their strength would definitely soar.

The assassin in the party sighed. "I watched for quite a while just now. Night Roaming God's talent is definitely from the ranged class line, yet he chose an assassin against all common sense. He really has ideas."

Dragon Soaring World said, "This kind of unconventional combination has unexpectedly good results. If Night Roaming God had chosen Archer, even with a hidden class, he would never have been able to steal the BOSS ownership."

The archer agreed, "Exactly. If Night Roaming God were an Archer, other players would have swarmed and taken him out long ago. So what if his damage was high? He would not even have had the chance to get near the BOSS."

Light Snow, the Divine Flame Priest, added, "After this BOSS battle, even if other guilds have issues with Night Roaming God, they will have to weigh their own capabilities. Can they defend against sneak attacks from dozens of meters away?"

The group looked at one another.

They had originally questioned Night Roaming God's choice, but now it seemed that they were on the first floor while Night Roaming God was at least on the fifth.

An assassin who could launch ranged attacks was simply absurd.

The key was that Night Roaming God's ranged damage was ridiculously high. Who could withstand that?

Several guild leaders present had all realized this, so none of them had any further ideas.

Instead, they all spoke up, saying they wanted to purchase any equipment Night Roaming God could not use and were willing to pay high prices.

At that moment, some players noticed that the balls of light around the Wild Rabbit BOSS were gradually disappearing.

That meant Night Roaming God was there.

Immediately, some unwilling players shouted, "Quick, use AoE skills to blanket the area!"

"Night Roaming God's Agility is only in the low thirties. As long as we throw out a few more skills, we can definitely flush him out."

"Even if we can't make all the loot drop, getting one or two pieces would make us rich."

In an instant, several skills descended, while some players swung their battered blades and slashed fiercely through the air.

Stealth only made someone invisible; it did not mean they could not be hit.

If it had been Qin Chuan before killing the BOSS, he might truly have been unable to evade so many skills.

Even if his awareness could keep up, his attributes would have limited his performance.

But now...

With the boost from 74 points of Agility, Qin Chuan had already sprinted more than ten meters away the instant he picked up the drops.

By the time the players began attacking in a chaotic frenzy, he had already run forty or fifty meters away.

"Looks like I've been too easygoing."

Qin Chuan thought to himself.

With a casual Shadow Flying Dagger, he instantly killed the player who had been leading the shouting.

Thud.

The player who had suddenly died collapsed to the ground, startling several people nearby.

"It's Night Roaming God! He attacked!"

"Wasn't he still picking up equipment just now? How did he run that far again?"

"Who said Night Roaming God's Agility was only a little over thirty? I calculated it. He would need at least fifty points of Agility to move that fast."

"He must have received attribute points for the BOSS first kill. We miscalculated."

"I know the guy who got one-shotted just now. He's an elite member of Rakshasa Hall. Looks like Rakshasa One-Slash still refuses to give up and wants to go head-to-head with Night Roaming God."

"Is he really not afraid of being targeted?"

The discussions around him made Rakshasa One-Slash's face turn pale. He hurriedly shouted, "I don't know that guy! He's not from our guild!"

There was no response.

Rakshasa One-Slash thought he was safe.

However, more than ten seconds later, a flying dagger silently appeared and instantly killed him.

At the same time, Qin Chuan's voice emerged from the Void.

"From now on, whenever a field BOSS appears, don't let me see anyone from Rakshasa Hall. I'll kill every one I see!"

Did it matter to Qin Chuan who had incited the players just now?

It did not.

Even if it truly had not been Rakshasa One-Slash's instruction, it was irrelevant.

What mattered to Qin Chuan was Establishing Authority.

There was another reason as well: Rakshasa One-Slash had poor character. Qin Chuan felt no psychological burden whatsoever in killing him.

Even if Apocalypse and Blue Star merged and death became reality, he would not regret killing Rakshasa One-Slash.

Rakshasa One-Slash's death also made the surrounding players realize something.

If Night Roaming God wanted to kill someone, there was no way to defend against it!

And this further solidified Dragon Soaring World's judgment.

That was, Night Roaming God could only be befriended, never antagonized!

Qin Chuan lay hidden in the shadows, waiting for his skills to cool down. He then struck again and instantly killed several Rakshasa Hall members, thoroughly making his stance clear.

He meant what he said.

With that, the remaining players completely gave up.

Qin Chuan finally had time to inspect the loot.

The first thing he cared about most was the skill book.

[Rend (Black Iron tier): Passive skill. While dealing damage, rends the wound, dealing (Attack Power * 20% + 20) damage per second for 3 seconds. Restricted to physical classes.]

Since the Giant Wild Rabbit was a Black Iron tier BOSS, its drops were at least of this grade.

This saved him some Evolution Points, which counted as an additional gain.

For physical classes, Rend could be considered an essential skill. It required no extra action and triggered whenever damage was dealt. In battle, its effect was practically uninterrupted, greatly increasing sustained damage output.

The only slight flaw was that Rend could not stack. Even if one's attack speed reached ten strikes per second, there would still only be one stack of Rend damage.

That was not much of a problem.

What Qin Chuan cared about was whether this damage over time could benefit from Sniper God's bonus!

"With my current Attack Power, plus Rend's fixed damage, it should deal around 24 damage per second. Over three seconds, that's 72 damage."

"If it can benefit from Sniper God's bonus, then at fifty meters, with a fivefold increase, it will reach 360 damage!"

Even though Qin Chuan could now deal nearly a thousand damage with a single flying dagger, more than three hundred, nearly four hundred points of damage still could not be ignored.

Of course, that was assuming Rend could benefit from Sniper God's bonus.

Qin Chuan wanted to verify his guess, but he still had several drops left to inspect, so there was no need to rush.

It would not be too late to test it after he dealt with the equipment.

Still, Qin Chuan was basically certain that Rend benefited from Sniper God's bonus.
