Star Archipelago, Dragon Scale Island.

Eastern respawn point.

After a flash of light, Jiang Ming stepped out of the respawn point, carrying a hoe and wearing linen clothes.

"I'm back, you bastards! You dared to bully me? You're all going to die!"

Thinking of his encounter at the abandoned mine three hours ago, Jiang Ming felt his anger flare up.

He felt he had never suffered such an insult in his life, being ganged up on and beaten to death.

At this moment, Jiang Ming had long forgotten his original intention for playing this game.

After satisfying his curiosity by trying out Omnipotent God, he had become completely addicted.

He had already forgotten Fang Chong's instructions to apologize to Wonder Studio and then negotiate a partnership.

Just as Jiang Ming was pondering how to take revenge, the respawn point flashed, and another figure stepped out.

"Jiang Ming, what do we do now!"

The young man speaking was named Huang Yan. He was slightly chubby, Jiang Ming's childhood friend and best buddy, who had also joined Omnipotent God after Jiang Ming recommended it to him.

"We have to hit back!" Jiang Ming glared immediately.

"How? There are only two of us, and they have a whole crowd!" Huang Yan looked very depressed, then his expression shifted:

"Jiang Ming, didn't you just take over your father's position managing the Infinite Game Platform? Can't you use the platform's name to demand some privileges from Wonder Studio? Get us a million divine power each so we can upgrade our gear, summon more troops, and buy the full set of Giant Spirit Rage from the shop. Then we won't have to be afraid of them!"

"You want me to use the platform's name to demand privileges for such a small matter?" Jiang Ming looked displeased, though he felt hollow inside.

He knew that Wonder Studio wouldn't give him the time of day.

"That's not right. You used to love using privileges. In the games we played before, didn't you always use your father's name to get tons of perks? I still remember that time you got us two sets of invincible supreme gear, letting us walk all over everyone in the game..."

"Shut up, that won't work this time!"

"Then what do we do? Without privileges, how can we win? They have nearly a hundred people!" Huang Yan grumbled.

"I've already thought of a way."

"What way?"

"Spend money to buy divine power!"

Hearing this, Huang Yan looked stunned:

"You mean, spend cash to buy divine power?"

"Exactly. As long as our price is attractive, players will definitely sell their divine power to us. Then we'll have the money to summon troops and buy Giant Spirit Rage!"

"But you never spent money on games before... Fine, I'll listen to you!" Seeing the change in Jiang Ming's expression, Huang Yan agreed immediately.

Since there was no top-up channel in the game, the two began to brainstorm how to acquire divine power.

They first posted an ad in the Omnipotent God discussion forum offering to buy divine power, leaving their contact number in the post.

After logging back into the game, Jiang Ming and Huang Yan began camping the respawn point.

Whenever a player stepped out, they would rush up eagerly and ask:

"Brother, do you have any divine power on you? Name your price, I'll take it all!"

Although the method was clumsy, with the power of money, they managed to collect 1,300 points of divine power in just half a day, spending nearly 200,000 in cash.

With the divine power, Jiang Ming and Huang Yan immediately resurrected their fallen troops and summoned four Blood Gladiators, significantly boosting their strength in a short time.

But Jiang Ming and Huang Yan were clearly not satisfied with this.

Because the faction they had a feud with had nearly a hundred players; four Blood Gladiators were simply not enough to contend with them.

Another half-day passed.

Having only collected 600 points of divine power this time, Jiang Ming and Huang Yan were extremely depressed.

They discovered that players in the game were generally short on divine power, and buying it with cash wasn't as easy as they had imagined.

The largest single purchase they made was only 23 points of divine power.

In fact, several times when players walked out of the respawn point and heard they were paying cash for divine power, they were actually willing to offer higher prices to buy divine power from them instead.

Having played games for so many years, this was the first time they had encountered such a situation.

"What do we do? We're getting less and less, can we even get our revenge?" Rubbing his chubby cheeks, Huang Yan said dejectedly.

"It's impossible to just let it go. Keep buying!" Jiang Ming's attitude was firm.

"How about we go to other resource points to mine? We can collect divine power along the way. Players near resource points should have more divine power, right?" Huang Yan suggested immediately.

Hearing this, Jiang Ming was silent for a moment, then nodded.

The two then downloaded an exploration map shared by other players in the discussion forum and headed south.

This time, their target was the southern resource point, the "Lava Stone Mine."

Following the map's markers, they moved forward, constantly discussing how to take revenge along the way. It was clear they had become obsessed.

This also had something to do with the environment in which they grew up.

Both of them were born with silver spoons in their mouths, surrounded by people who catered to their every whim since childhood; they had never suffered a single grievance.

In other games, they were privileged gods of war who only ever bullied other players, while those players couldn't even break through their defenses.

However, in Omnipotent God, the two of them, stripped of all privilege, were given a harsh lesson by society.

While mining in an abandoned cave, they were mistaken for members of a hostile faction by a group of players, pinned to the ground, and given a sound beating.

The two of them, filled with indignation, naturally could not swallow this bitter pill.

After walking for about twenty minutes, the sounds of fighting in the distance caught the attention of Jiang Ming and Huang Yan.

Circling around the thicket of thorns ahead, Jiang Ming and Huang Yan witnessed a spectacular scene.

A white-furred ape with a golden beard was dueling another white-furred ape, their punches landing with visceral thuds that sent gusts of air blowing outward.

Surrounding them, countless white-furred apes watched with solemn expressions, seemingly awaiting the outcome of the duel.

[Dragon Ape (Lord)]

Biological Details: One of the overlords of the southern region of Dragon Scale Island, possessing innate divine strength and strong combat awareness and grappling skills.

Strength Rating: Level 31

Temperament: Volatile, irritable

After checking the detailed information of the white ape with the golden beard through analysis, Jiang Ming and Huang Yan trembled in fear, shrinking behind the thorn bushes and not daring to show their heads.

They knew full well what the consequences of being discovered would be.

A three-hour resurrection cooldown was certainly unavoidable.

As they waited, the battle neared its end.

The Dragon Ape Lord was clearly running out of stamina, its punching speed slowing down, while the other white ape fought with increasing ferocity, its claws leaving a trail of wounds on the Dragon Ape Lord's body.

Accompanied by a deafening roar, the Dragon Ape Lord was smashed to the ground by a punch and could no longer get back up.

"Hoo! Hoo! Hoo!" The victorious white ape raised its hands and then pounded its chest with force.

Seeing this, the surrounding white apes also stood up excitedly, pounding their chests along with their new king, seemingly welcoming the birth of a new ruler in this manner.

A moment later, the new white ape king led the troop away, leaving behind only the dying Dragon Ape Lord.

Determining that it was now safe, Jiang Ming and Huang Yan stepped out from the thorn bushes.

They arrived before the dying Dragon Ape Lord.
