The players of No. 9527 Newbie Village were thrilled.

Rakshasa One-Slash was going to war with Night Roaming God!

When they had fought the Giant Wild Rabbit before, the players had chosen to give up the BOSS, but quite a few of them had been holding back their frustration.

If Night Roaming God had not barged in, they would have had every chance of claiming the loot rights.

But now, it had nothing to do with them.

Still, after killing the BOSS, Night Roaming God had instantly killed several Rakshasa Hall members, including their guild leader. That made many players realize they could not stand against Night Roaming God on their own.

They had thought the matter was over and were preparing to keep slaughtering rabbits. Unexpectedly, Rakshasa One-Slash had pulled himself together and led his underlings through the Newbie Village, loudly proclaiming that Rakshasa Hall would represent all players in executing Night Roaming God, that villain.

With the mindset that there was no such thing as too much excitement, more and more players joined in. Before long, their numbers had reached several hundred.

Since they could not snatch any wild rabbits anyway, they might as well go watch the show.

Such an enormous display made Rakshasa One-Slash even more pleased with himself.

This was the will of the people!

Night Roaming God, you have run rampant for too long. Your defeat is inevitable!

Some guild leaders who knew Rakshasa One-Slash sent inquiries out of curiosity. Upon learning that he was going after Night Roaming God, they could not help feeling worried.

After all, Night Roaming God could use Infinite Stealth and was unaffected by Level 3 Flares. How were they supposed to deal with an opponent like that?

Rakshasa One-Slash merely gave a mysterious smile and said he had a trump card.

As for what it was, he did not reveal a single word.

His confidence made several guild leaders tempted.

They had not given up the BOSS entirely of their own free will. They had merely endured it because they had no way to restrain Night Roaming God.

Now that Rakshasa One-Slash was preparing to make a move, they had to go take a look.

However, they kept their options open. Rather than openly joining Rakshasa One-Slash's group, they followed from far behind.

If Rakshasa One-Slash failed, they could claim they had merely come to watch the show and avoid being marked by Night Roaming God.

A large number of low-level players gathered together naturally drew the attention of the wild monsters. The monsters swarmed over, only to be hacked to death in the chaos.

However, as they ventured farther in, the monsters' levels kept rising. Once they entered the Level 5 area, casualties began appearing among the players.

Ordinary players simply could not withstand the attacks of higher-level monsters.

At that moment, Rakshasa One-Slash stepped forward and led the Rakshasa Hall members at the very front.

That earned him considerable goodwill from the independent players.

Dragon Soaring World watched from afar and said, "Rakshasa One-Slash is a capable man. Even now, he hasn't forgotten to expand his influence."

The Assassin curled his lip and said disdainfully, "I think he's courting death. He actually wants to arm-wrestle Night Roaming God. Something must be wrong with his head."

The Archer strongly agreed and said solemnly, "Rakshasa One-Slash overestimates himself. He dares challenge my nemesis, so he has already chosen death."

Dragon Soaring World was full of question marks. "You have a nemesis? Who is it?"

Light Snow softly said from the side, "Night Roaming God."

Dragon Soaring World suddenly understood. He looked the Archer up and down, shaking his head and clicking his tongue.

The Archer was so angry he nearly jumped in place. "What is that look supposed to mean? Am I not worthy of being Night Roaming God's nemesis?"

Dragon Soaring World did not answer, afraid of hurting his old friend's feelings.

But the Assassin in the team had no such concern. He burst out laughing. "Old Zhang, why don't you take a piss and look at yourself? How can you compare to Night Roaming God? Can you solo the Wild Rabbit BOSS?"

The Archer was so angry he nearly fainted.

Those two rotten friends always took outsiders' sides. It was infuriating.

After chatting and joking for a while, Dragon Soaring World said, "The Granite Hills are up ahead. By the way, do you feel like there's an earthquake?"

The Archer had been too busy getting angry earlier, but after calming down and sensing it for a moment, he said, "The ground really is shaking, and it's getting stronger."

He stomped on the ground and guessed, "The BOSS Night Roaming God mentioned is probably underground."

They continued onward, only to hear a barrage of curses from ahead.

"Fuck, why did a monster spawn?"

"What kind of stats are these? Ten of me together wouldn't be enough to take one punch."

"Night Roaming God levels in a hellhole like this? I think Rakshasa One-Slash has kicked an iron plate this time."

"Tch, what's so great about Night Roaming God? He only relies on Infinite Stealth and high damage. I could do it too."

"Stop talking, another Granite Giant is coming."

"Everyone, I'll die first as a sign of respect."

The Dragon Soaring Team found a safe spot. Looking into the distance, they almost burst out laughing.

The spirited Rakshasa One-Slash from earlier was now being chased all over the place by a Granite Giant.

But after checking the Granite Giant's stats, Dragon Soaring World could no longer laugh.

With stats like those, they definitely could not farm it. Perhaps they would stand a chance only after reaching Level 5 and replacing their gear.

Yet as far as the eye could see, apart from players rolling around in panic, there were dozens of Granite Giant corpses!

And judging from how the giant fragments were merging into the ground, even more giants had already vanished without a trace.

Dragon Soaring World silently calculated for a moment, his tone filled with shock. "Going by Night Roaming God's earlier leveling speed, he can kill a Granite Giant in two strikes. His damage must be at least around two thousand. I remember that when he fought the Giant Wild Rabbit, his damage was only around one thousand. How did it double so quickly?"

The Archer wore an unsurprised expression. "As expected of my nemesis."

Light Snow added, "Night Roaming God got a dagger drop. Equipping it would greatly increase his Attack Power."

Though that made sense, Dragon Soaring World still felt something was off.

As they spoke, Rakshasa One-Slash finally managed, after tremendous effort, to kill the Granite Giant just before being violently slain himself.

That even earned Dragon Soaring World's respect.

He had not been smashed to death in one punch. He had some skill.

But considering there were more than a dozen Priests behind Rakshasa One-Slash continuously healing him, it was no longer surprising.

Fortunately, only one Granite Giant had spawned. The players had finally avoided being wiped out.

Rakshasa One-Slash steadied himself and shouted at the air, "Night Roaming God, get out here!"

Since he had already decided to tear all pretense apart with Night Roaming God, Rakshasa One-Slash naturally would not be polite.

The other players widened their eyes, wanting to see how Night Roaming God would respond.

He would probably instantly kill someone with a flying knife again, just like last time.

Rakshasa One-Slash had naturally prepared for that. He had specially found a hidden-class helper who could transfer damage, shifting fatal wounds onto teammates.

He had brought dozens of people with him. Even if Night Roaming God could instantly kill someone every time, it would still take a long time.

During that time, his men could keep running back after dying.

Either Night Roaming God would stay here and fight them to the bitter end, or he would leave.

This was Rakshasa One-Slash's perpetual-motion strategy!

Of course, that was not his only goal.

He was waiting. Once he confirmed that Night Roaming God was here, it would be time for him to act!

Come on, instantly kill me.

Rakshasa One-Slash secretly anticipated it.

But instead of an instant-kill flying knife, a Granite Giant in the distance suddenly died where it stood.

At the same time, a figure flashed past in the distance.

It was Night Roaming God!

Rakshasa One-Slash was overjoyed. Just as he was about to pull out a scroll, he nearly stumbled.

The ground shook violently, and fine spiderweb-like cracks spread across the hard rocky surface.

A terrifying roar came from underground.

"Insignificant insect, you dare disturb Lord Amos's slumber! I will crush you!"
