Kneel Before the Fire Qilin and Speak

The little incident on Blackfish Island had not slowed Yang Ling and the others' evacuation.

Once the thirteen ships were loaded with valuables, they immediately set sail.

"I thought starting out mining was already a disastrous opening. Now it seems plenty of players have it far worse."

Yang Ling watched Blackfish Island recede into the distance.

He had always assumed that the first challenge players faced after entering the Divine Realm was filling their stomachs.

Even the Immortal Gods Sect had gradually preyed on other players through deception.

He had never imagined that some players would face such a hellish start.

Without even a single tael of silver on them, they could not ask for help through the Divine Realm Communication Channel.

They had no opportunity to level up, either. They were simply treated as disposable beasts of burden.

If I'd started on Blackfish Island, under the rule of Chen Haiyang and his people...

Yang Ling's scalp prickled.

As long as he was held captive and unable to level up, even his initial advantages of viewing other people's attribute panels and receiving immediate experience feedback when leveling up would have been useless.

"When I arrived, the Divine Realm was still in its earliest days. It took a long time before I met another player, Zhang Wei."

"More and more players are entering now. The first thing newcomers need to watch out for isn't the natives, but their fellow players, who know exactly how they operate."

"Even if some players started as ordinary people, neither particularly good nor evil, they'll gradually change given enough time and a profit to be made."

"The later players enter the game, the more disproportionately difficult things will become."
