War Soul King
The Big Water Cunt continued, "And we the Immortals are basically the strongest organization in the future of the elemental world, which is why I eagerly joined and came to this godforsaken place to coast along. After all, if I can become an elder, my status will rise accordingly. When Azathoth becomes the Elemental King, I might even become an Elemental Lords. You can basically think of the Immortals as the ruling party of the future Elemental Plane. In short, joining is definitely not a bad thing."
After saying that, he added, "Of course, the future ruling party is still in the stage of expanding its influence through guerrilla warfare, so it's not very useful to build up this reputation right now. It can only be used to exchange for some junk equipment or something."
Jing Wuming secretly rolled his eyes and exclaimed in surprise, "This is what you call junk equipment? But I saw that you can get epic equipment from the quartermaster, and the stats are pretty good too."
The Big Water Cunt his lip in disdain. "What's that? Just a few pieces of broken purple gear. Let me tell you, once Azathoth unifies the elemental realm, the equipment you can get with the Immortals reputation will be plentiful, not just purple gear. Legendary gear will be the biggest selling point, and you might even get artifact quests from Azathoth."
Jing Wuming thought to himself, "Really? A divine artifact quest? It seems that no player has ever obtained a divine artifact in the game yet. The highest level they've ever obtained is legendary equipment (orange equipment). Most of the divine artifacts that have appeared are in the hands of NPCs. Let alone genuine divine artifacts, players don't even have a knock-off version."
The Big Water Cunt Water Elemental elder said, "Of course, reputation won't be as easy to gain then. Right now, it only takes 1,000 reputation to go from neutral to friendly, 3,000 to honored, 5,000 to revered, and 10,000 to exalted. But when Azathoth unifies the Elemental Plane and the Immortals take power, the required reputation will increase at least tenfold."
"Wait a minute! You mean that when Azathoth unifies the Elemental Plane, our reputation can be preserved? We won't need to grind it then? In other words, grinding it now would be very worthwhile?"
Big Water Cunt nodded hurriedly, "That's right, but you can't just tell anyone about this. Keep it to yourself. After all, this is a game official secret. It wouldn't be good if people found out I leaked it."
After saying that, he feigned evasion, saying, "Actually, I was just speculating casually, and I can't guarantee whether it's true or not."
"Absolutely, I would never make things up." Jing Wuming agreed. However, although Big Water Cunt said that, based on his gaming experience, he felt that the matter was pretty much true, otherwise a level 35 Elemental Lords would never appear. After chatting for a few more minutes, Jing Wuming made an excuse to leave.
He chuckled as he watched Jing Wuming leave the Big Water Cunt, then turned his gaze to a passing female Priest.
"Hey beautiful lady, want to learn a big secret? Come on, dance for me and I'll tell you."
After leaving the Big Water Cunt, Jing Wuming was incredibly excited. He had to increase his reputation, and not only did he have to, but he also had to get everyone in the guild to do it. No, he had to contact the boss immediately.
Opening his friends list, Jing Wuming saw that his boss was online and immediately messaged him. This was a very convenient feature of the Adventurer app, with all sorts of functions available, making it easy to find contacts.
Jing Wuming: "Hey, is the boss there?"
War Soul King: "We're in a dungeon right now. Damn it, a Death Knight boss has been blocking our main raid for three hours. I strongly suspect this guy is a player. Spit it out."
Jing Wuming: "I've discovered a key character in the plot."
War Soul King: "A key plot character? Are you sure?!"
Jing Wuming: "Absolutely certain."
As he spoke, he used his camera sprite to take a picture of Azathoth in the distance and sent it to him.
War Soul King: "A level 35 Elemental Lords, wow, this guy's amazing."
Jing Wuming: "Am I right? This guy can't be this awesome unless he's a key character in the plot."
War Soul King: "Could it be a player?"
Jing Wuming: "Impossible. Players can buy BOSS accounts, but they can't buy titles. There are only a few Elemental Lords in the entire game, and they're all controlled by studios. Which of them who can become Elemental Lords isn't a level 50 or 60 skeleton-level BOSS? Besides, if it were a player, how could they dare to come to the Prime Material Plane? Water Elemental can't fly. Wouldn't they be afraid of being killed by the plot?"
It's very dangerous for a player-controlled BOSS to be in the wild. They can easily be discovered by adventurers and reported to a guild with a hero template, who will then organize hundreds of adventurers to take them down. Therefore, players must have Stealth, flight, or teleportation abilities to have top-notch survival skills before daring to roam the wild.
War Soul King: So he really might be a key character in the story. No, I can't do this dungeon anymore, I can't beat it anyway. I'll just put myself in the past.
It's no wonder that War Soul King was excited. You see, important storylines often happen around key characters in games. Especially before a key character becomes famous, they may seem like an ordinary character, but the game company will definitely arrange a series of important storylines for them to increase their influence, shape their image, and participate in major events in the game. Therefore, these storyline missions often involve a lot of interests.
For example, when the game was first released three years ago, several guilds made the right bets, followed the right story quests, and gained a lot of reputation by completing quests, instantly becoming some of the most powerful guilds in the game. For instance, the two strongest guilds in the game right now, the Arcane Federation of the Alliance and the Wild Warriors of the Horde, happened to be there when the Burning Legion invaded Kalimdor and attacked the World Tree. The Arcane Federation followed Jaina, and the Wild Warriors followed Thrall, and they fought a fierce battle against the Burning Legion under the World Tree. As a result, they not only raised their reputation with the Alliance and the Horde to Exalted, but also obtained a bunch of titles, legendary achievements, and legendary weapons, instantly becoming the two most powerful guilds in the game.
As the saying goes, fortune's wheel turns, and this year it's my turn to strike it rich! War Soul King thought to himself as he led his men out of the dungeon.
War Soul King: "By the way, how did you get there?"
Jing Wuming: "You'll be on a ship traveling from Menethil Harbor to Theramore Harbor. Halfway there, you'll encounter a group of Hydras attacking the ship. After it sinks, a group of sirens will bring you here. Just follow the storyline."
War Soul King: "Understood. We should arrive tomorrow. You should focus on building reputation."
