Chapter 300: My Mom One-Shot with a Critical Hit (Requesting Monthly Votes)

The Great Emperor's reply left Ning Shu completely bewildered.

When he received the reply from the president of the Gold Coin Guild, "Collecting Shou Shou Jili," he thought it was a friend of his mother's at the Purification Center who had pulled some strings to get Shou Shou Jili.

Or perhaps during this qualification distribution, someone formidable had emerged at the Purification Center, possessing enough Shou Shou Jili to help his mother pay for medical expenses to travel to Moon Eclipse City.

But the Great Emperor's answer gave him a clear response.

It was just that this answer made him feel incredulous.

He decisively initiated a video call, eager to see the truth with his own eyes.

Great Emperor: Are you never done? I'm busy. What exactly is it? I have no time for video calls.

Chen Xiang: Mom, it's Xiao Shu.

The other party remained silent for a long time, then sent an emoji: (Explorer Confused. jpg)

Chen Xiang: Mom, accept the video call.

Just as he was preparing to initiate another video call, the other party sent a video call request first.

After connecting the video call, the light screen image appeared before Ning Shu's eyes.

In the image was a woman with silver hair tied into a high ponytail, holding an ice crystal longbow. She wore a set of blue battle armor with frost-flower patterns condensed on the shoulder guards. An arrow quiver hung at her waist, from which wisps of white mist could be seen rising.

At this moment, she was hunting monsters.

With a raised hand, white mist rose from the quiver, gathered at the bowstring, and formed an ice crystal arrow.

She nocked the bow and shot.

The arrow split into three streams of light in mid-air, precisely piercing the single eye of a distant monster.

Before the white mist swirling around the arrow tail had fully dissipated, she spun and leaped.

A Night Nightmare Beast attacked from behind. Without turning her head, she gripped the longbow in reverse; the bow tip sliced through the monster's throat like a blade, and the cold air instantly froze the monster's black blood into ice shards.

Upon landing, the quiver hummed again. Newly formed arrows automatically nocked themselves, pierced the last Night Nightmare Beast a hundred meters away that was trying to flee, pinned it to the ground, and exploded it into a sky full of ice crystals.

After ending the battle, she flicked the frost flakes off the bowstring.

In the view of the Guidance Water Sphere, arrow fletchings still steaming with cold air were stuck in the foreheads of all monsters within a hundred-meter radius.

At this moment, the woman in the image suddenly clenched her fist. Immediately, all the arrows hummed and then burst into icy cold air, automatically gathering into the quiver.

At this same time, the woman looked toward the Guidance Water Sphere, that is, toward the connection camera.

Seeing the woman's face clearly, Ning Shu's breath hitched.

Those slightly upturned phoenix eyes, the small light brown mole under her right eye, and the habit of unconsciously biting her lower lip whenever she got fierce.

The sharp heroism between her brows overlapped with his memories, except that in the game, the weathering of years had faded away.

Every piece of information reminded him that this Valkyrie surrounded by an ice crystal halo was, shockingly, the mother in his memory, who always wore a floral apron and busied herself in the kitchen.

"Xiao Shu, it really is you!" His mother put on an expression of disbelief.

"Mom, so you are the Great Emperor!"

His mother waved her hand to disperse the ice crystal longbow, scratched her head, the sharpness and heroism in her eyes faded, and she smiled foolishly:

"Son, how did you also obtain the game qualification?"

"Nonsense, it's normal for me to get the qualification. As for you, weren't you being rescued? Where did you get the game qualification?" Ning Shu couldn't help but retort, feeling truly speechless, then asked again:

"Tell me, what exactly happened? How did you end up in the game?"

Facing the question, Ning Qing shrugged:

"At that time, I was processing a batch of newly delivered liquid in Purification Zone 3, but the protective suit malfunctioned, and I was sent to the hospital for emergency rescue..."

Ning Shu interrupted at this point:

"I've already been to your workplace. Uncle An secretly told me the situation. Give me the main points."

Hearing this, Ning Qing nodded in realization:

"Hearing you say that, I roughly understand what happened. It must be that you learned of my critical condition, discovered the Medical Center couldn't treat me, then ran home crying and made a silent vow in your heart: I must save my mother."

"And the Monster World was your only chance. So you took the name Chen Xiang, implying Chen Xiang saves his mother. These past few days you've been hunting monsters in the game to accumulate Shou Shou Jili, and finally today you've saved enough money, contacted members of the Gold Coin Guild, and prepared to pay Shou Shou Jili to send me to Moon Eclipse City."

"After submitting my data, the reply from the beings of the Upper Realm was that this patient is currently being treated. So you were very confused: which kind-hearted person saved your beautiful mother? You pressed for answers, got my game ID, and sent an inquiry."

Hearing his mother's logically clear analysis of the entire event, Ning Shu sighed in admiration in his heart.

Truly my mother!

"Stop analyzing. Mom, everything you said is correct. What I want to know now is your situation."

"The situation is quite complicated. Listen to me explain it in detail..."

His mother propped her chin up, adopting a serious posture of recollection.

In his mother's narration, Ning Shu gradually understood the origin of the matter.

Just as the doctors said, his mother's condition at that time was extremely dire; her body was eroded by pollutants, and conventional methods were difficult to curb.

At this stage, his mother was sent into a life-sustaining pod, maintaining her bodily functions through dialysis.

But the process was very painful.

The doctors provided two life-sustaining methods to be carried out simultaneously.

First, an anesthetic was injected into her body to put the old lady into a deep sleep, after which she was sent to the life-sustaining pod.

Conventional anesthesia could only be maintained for 24 hours; excessive anesthesia might lead to an inability to wake up.

If not anesthetized, during the long-term immersion, the patient suddenly waking up would likely interfere with the treatment. Therefore, the life-sustaining pod was equipped with neural interface devices similar to game pods.

During her treatment, his mother was sent into a virtual world.

When she woke up, she saw a virtual desktop, and on the desktop, explanatory text left by the doctors.

At that time, his mother did not know that he had already learned the truth. After all, the workplace had confidentiality regulations regarding such safety accidents; during the treatment phase, relatives would not be informed, only various excuses would be given for explanation.

For example, business trips, new purification course training, emergency purification incidents, and so on.

To prevent him from worrying, his mother did not contact him proactively.

At that time, she thought she would most likely not survive.

The only chance was the Monster World about to launch, which contained a special medical channel leading directly to Moon Eclipse City.

So when he fought for a Monster World qualification, his mother also fought for a qualification through the official website inside the virtual network provided by the life-support pod.

His mother was very lucky; she drew a qualification at the exact same moment he obtained his.

Just like his situation, after entering the game, his mother decisively chose the Scatter Arrow as her initial Painful Painful Minghun, named herself Great Emperor, and began her game journey.

Regarding archery, his mother, who hadn't played games for a long time, was already somewhat rusty.

But during the hunting process, she quickly grasped the knack, began rapidly slaughtering monsters to grow, and chose to break away from the advance direction of the newbies' army.

She forged a new path, opening up a route through the Mist Zone.

After the event ended, his mother, who had won first place on the event leaderboard, immediately received a reward of one hundred thousand Shou Shou Jili.

She decisively contacted the channel of the Gold Coin Guild, added ten thousand Shou Shou Jili to the price, and had herself, along with the life-support pod, sent onto a spaceship, urgently dispatched to Moon Eclipse City.

His mother finally stated that she was most likely currently receiving treatment from the Moon Eclipse Clan inside the life-support pod.

After listening to his mother's story, Ning Shu couldn't help but give a thumbs-up:

"Mom, you're truly awesome."

"Where, where? Your mom is just a little bit awesome." His mother smiled foolishly, facing her son with none of the proud, Valkyrie-like posture she had just shown.

"No wonder the house was filled with trophies from game competitions back then, and you boasted that if I hadn't been born, you would probably have continued chasing your dreams in the game."

Facing her son's flattery, Ning Qing's face bloomed with a brilliant smile:

"Son, Mom is currently saving up Shou Shou Jili for you; when the time comes, we'll go to Moon Eclipse City together. After the treatment ends, we'll be discharged together... By the way, what is that big thing following behind you?"

Ning Qing's gaze turned to the Six-Armed Profound Ice behind Ning Shu.

Facing the inquiry, Ning Shu sent the analysis screenshot over.

Seeing the original level of 382 displayed in the analysis information, Ning Qing also appeared greatly surprised:

"Incredible, such a huge opportunity; you really stumbled into good luck."

Hearing this, Ning Shu couldn't help but retort:

"Mom, what do you mean by stumbling into good luck? What about you? I don't believe you maintained first place on the leaderboard through normal leveling. Holy crap?"

"Where? Mom relied entirely on personal strength."

As she spoke, the mother in the image waved her hand, as if to say: You really are a killjoy.

She then sent an analysis screenshot as well.

Upon opening the screenshot, the relevant information appeared in Ning Shu's mind.

The screenshot image was precisely the Ice Crystal Longbow his mother had used while hunting just now.

【Frost Dome Starfall】:

Equipment Strength Level: Level 428 (Bound: Great Emperor).

Equipment Description: From the Eternal Silence Binghu region, a divine artifact forged by the former Demigod overlord "Eternal Silence Witch." The bow body is wrapped in Ice Soul Silk crafted by the witch with great effort, and the accompanying Ice Breath Quiver was refined from 1,280 Snow Maidens. Every arrow contains Eternal Silence power, capable of instantly freezing the target's body.

When the user draws the bowstring to full, frost flowers will climb along the arm to form armor, significantly increasing defense.

Sealed Traits: Eternal Freeze Breath, Winter Divine Judgment, Ice Soul, Frost Splendor.

Equipment Hint: The quiver auto-charges and nocks arrows, moves following willpower, shooting consumes no Qi Blood, and can additionally apply trait damage.

Seeing that the quality of this equipment had actually reached Level 428, Ning Shu was stunned.

The strongest equipment known on the forum should be the gauntlets worn by Long Gen in the training camp, followed by the necklace on Tongzi's neck.

The quality of these two pieces of equipment was around Level 300; sacrificing Beneath Di Zhao could yield about five million Shou Shou Jili.

Although they lacked the absolute logical effects of Rules or even Pseudo-Rules.

High-quality equipment is piled up from incredibly precious materials, with offensive power and defense as core indicators.

Compared to Rules, the characteristic of such items is maxed-out attributes.

This equipment in his mother's hand, for players at the current stage, was not just overpowered; it was simply an unsolvable divine artifact.

Want to kill someone? One arrow.

If the Di Nian Bully stood in front, he would probably find it hard to withstand three arrows.

Although this weapon was not as precious as a Rule, sacrificing Beneath Di Zhao would probably allow it to be easily exchanged for ten million points of Shou Shou Jili.

No wonder his mother's leveling speed was so fast.

The weapon comes with defensive ice armor when drawn, auto-charging, and willpower movement; this means killing wherever you go, with stamina and offensive power both maxed out.

"I told you, Mom relied entirely on strength, with not a bit of luck added."

Looking at the proud face of his mother in the image, Ning Shu felt contempt in his heart.

Compared to his mother's start, this Six-Armed Profound Ice beside him seemed to fall far short.

He wanted to help the Six-Armed Profound Ice restore its peak state, which would require spending a huge amount of Shou Shou Jili to buy potions, or having the Six-Armed Profound Ice hunt and devour a vast amount of life.

But his mother was different; she started with a peak, undamaged divine artifact.

And the standard for judging whether a weapon is good, besides offensive power, is also the limit of bearing one's own strength.

For example, a Level 1 Shangcheng weapon would break with a wave of a high-level player's hand, completely unable to bear their own strength.

But this weapon with a strength level of over 400 would probably last until his mother's real-life lifespan was exhausted without needing replacement.

This is the charm of the Monster World.

During the exploration process, anything is possible.

Even a newbie can, relying on a single opportunity encounter, reach the top tier of the player camp.

With curiosity, he asked his mother about the process of obtaining this divine artifact.

The answer received fit the logic of encounters spoken of by exploration-party players very well.

Mom explained that at the time, she was holding the Scatter Arrow Bow and hunting monsters when the ice beneath her feet suddenly cracked, and she fell into it.

As a result, she accidentally discovered that inside was actually a passable ice cave.

No difficulty trials, no willpower tests... When she walked to the end of the ice cave, she saw a skeleton sitting against the wall on the ground, and beside it lay the Frost Sky Starfall.

But to obtain this weapon, Mom still paid over ten thousand Shou Shou Jili to break the Master-Binding Zhu Lao Yin on the weapon.

And with the guidance's help, she purified and bound the weapon.

Thus, the happy hunt began.

After obtaining the Frost Sky Starfall, every monster along the way was killed with a single arrow, needing no follow-up shots at all.

Shooting the Scatter Arrow Bow consumes blood qi, but the Frost Sky Starfall does not; it automatically absorbs the world's spiritual energy to recharge throughout the entire process.

The "Snow Maiden (arrows)" shot out can be recalled with a single thought.

Truly an infinite-ammo, violent, world-destroying weapon.

Unlike his tortuous experience, Mom completed the opportunity blessing on the very first day she entered the Monster World.

And on that same day, she surged from rank 63 on the leaderboard to rank 1.

She maintained this until the event ended, still leading him by 8 levels in comprehensive Painful Painful Minghun level.

After listening to Mom's story, Ning Shu couldn't help but pout and complain:

"Come on, Mom, where is the skill here? It's clearly just being blessed by the God of Luck; starting by falling into a hidden map and picking up a divine artifact for free—does that have even a shred of connection to skill? You're the one who just got lucky."

Ning Qing raised an eyebrow:

"Before obtaining the opportunity, your Mom was already in the top hundred of the leaderboard, unlike someone who could only barely cling to the very end of the top hundred by the event's end."

"Rank 1 on the leaderboard? That's still just relying on an opportunity."

"Brat, what do you know? Do you think anyone can make a divine artifact submit? So many players were wandering the Binghu area; why did only your Mom trigger the hidden condition?"

"So what? Isn't that just luck?"

"Of course it's the divine artifact choosing its master; it's not that I wanted it, but that it chose the powerful Mom."

"Fine, you're right about everything." Ning Shu stopped arguing about who grew up relying on luck.

In short, both of them, mother and son, had great luck and both obtained very precious opportunity rewards.

A monster with an original level of 382, an undamaged divine artifact with equipment strength 428—truly a god-tier start.

Mom was first on the event leaderboard; he was third.

It's just unknown what opportunity the guy in second place on the leaderboard obtained during his exploration.

This Eternal Silence Binghu, once a battlefield, clearly hides enormous historical wealth, waiting for players to unearth it.

After the idle chat, Ning Shu looked at the video screen and said:

"Mom, where are you now? I'm coming to find you."

"Want to form a party to farm experience, huh?" Mom in the picture spoke with a teasing expression:

"Fine, I'll reluctantly agree to level you up; after all, I'm your real mom, and the Shou Shou Jili I've saved is for you anyway."

【Challenger Notice: Player "Great Emperor" requests to form a party with you. Agree: Yes/No.】 Ning Shu used his consciousness to tap "Yes" to agree, then opened the map and locked onto Mom's location.

Controlling the Six-Armed Profound Ice, he turned and sprinted wildly toward Mom's direction, while Mom in the video screen once again activated her hunting mode.

The camera pulled back; Mom's silver hair flew with the wind. Her right hand grabbed at the void, and the sky-full of ice mist roared and gathered as if summoned, condensing in her palm into the bow body of the Frost Sky Starfall.

The instant the bowstring tightened, the snowflakes in the nearby area all suspended in mid-air, as if time had frozen.

Her left hand brushed past the quiver at her waist; a wisp of white mist coiled around her fingertips, instantly transforming into an ice crystal arrow (Snow Maiden) bursting with cold blades.

The ice-blue star patterns on the arrowhead lit up in sequence, emitting a hum.

In the distance, a Red-Eyed Demon Owl just spread its bat wings when the frost patterns on Mom's bow arm suddenly bloomed; the instant she let go, the arrow pierced the air, becoming a deep blue meteor.

Where it passed, the air froze into spiral ice trails.

The Demon Owl couldn't even flap its wings before the arrowhead pierced its brow.

The power of Eternal Silence instantly erupted from within outward, freezing the three-meter-tall giant owl into an ice sculpture.

The arrow's remaining force continued to pierce backward, rebound, and shuttle repeatedly through the Demon Owl's body; instantly, a hundred-meter-diameter ice crystal lotus bloomed in the sky.

"Mom, awesome."

Mom turned her head, winked playfully at the camera, then sprinted toward a target even farther away.

Watching Mom's fierce, Valkyrie-like figure in the picture, Ning Shu suddenly had an idea.

He originally wanted to play a ranged archer, which was also his favorite class choice in other games.

But now that he had the Six-Armed Profound Ice, he definitely couldn't choose the archer path anymore.

He had to switch to the Liu Wan Fa, a less popular playstyle on the forums.

The characteristic of this school is self-buffing and pet damage output.

The embedded Star Veins focus on Painful Painful Minghun such as Light Shield, Blood Ignition, Life Link, and Mental Shockwave, centering on control, healing, and buffing the baby.

Only this way can the power of the Six-Armed Profound Ice be maximized.

But deep down, he still longed more to take the archer path; he didn't like playing support.

Thinking of this, he tentatively asked in the voice channel:

"Mom, let's discuss something."

"I know whether you're about to poop or fart just by the way you lift your butt; let me be clear: this Frost Sky Starfall isn't for trade, and I have no interest in the Six-Armed Profound Ice either. From now on, you take the support path; your Six-Armed Profound Ice will be the damage-absorbing tank, while Mom is the absolute main damage dealer."

"I haven't said anything yet." Ning Shu couldn't help but widen his eyes.

"You're the brat I raised with my own hands, feeding you poop and wiping your tears; how could I not know what you're thinking?"

"Mom, I'm your son."

"If it weren't for raising you little rascal, your Mom would have joined the professional league when she was young. Now Mom is here in the Monster World to fulfill her dream and reach the peak of players; your ideas are off the table. Don't think about stealing Mom's spotlight."

"Fine."

The negotiation failed; Ning Shu pouted, swallowing the words that had reached his lips.

On the journey, he began to ponder a question.

How could he bring the Six-Armed Profound Ice back to Emperor Tomb Village, otherwise every time he entered the village, he could only store it outside.

Although the purification system went online alongside the pet system.

It only targeted the Shuyuan Warriors produced within the Shuyuan domain.

But analyzing information obtained from the forum, the Guide seemed capable of helping players accommodate high-quality items and pseudo-rules into the player system.

For instance, the special Painful Painful Minghun of the Infant Group Dean: Darkblood Legion.

Or the Painful Painful Minghun of the Pain Brothers from the early days.

Thinking of this, Ning Shu looked up at the Guide Water Sphere floating beside him and asked if there was a solution.

Facing the inquiry, the Guide Water Sphere opened its eyes:

【The player system does not accommodate trash. The Six-Armed Profound Ice you control barely passes inspection. Pay 150,000 Shou Shou Jili, and I will help you purify and process it, allowing you to carry it back to Emperor Tomb Village thereafter. However, it still cannot be resurrected upon death. Integrating it with the player system requires completely reshaping the Six-Armed Profound Ice; the Shou Shou Jili consumed is enormous, far better used to strengthen yourself.】

Hearing the Guide's answer, Ning Shu was not surprised.

Being able to receive the same treatment as a Shuyuan Warrior, returning to Emperor Tomb Village after purification, was already very good.

In the future, when encountering high-intensity wars, he would still have to store the Six-Armed Profound Ice in the pet space.

If it died during a war, the loss would be huge.

After traveling for half a day, Ning Shu rode the Six-Armed Profound Ice through the blizzard and finally arrived in the region on the map where his mother was located.

Looking up, a blue sun floated in the distant sky; his vision zoomed in.

His mother stood upon the air, enveloped in dazzling ice crystals, her silver hair flying wildly in the gale.

With one hand, she drew the Frost Dome Star Pendant; amidst the trembling of the bowstring, an ice-blue arrow shot out, breaking the air.

The arrow left the string and suddenly split in mid-air, instantly transforming into hundreds of cold glints.

Each one precisely locked onto a distant Ice-Winged Demon circling above.

The instant the arrows pierced the monsters, they were frozen into crystalline ice sculptures, then all shattered into a sky full of ice crystals.

Compared to the mother in his memories wearing a floral apron, his mother now was too domineering!

Just then, the Binghu below his mother exploded.

A Frost Demon as massive as a small mountain burst through the ice, opening its mouth to spew ice mist, which turned into a biting cold current sweeping toward his mother floating in the air.

Ning Shu's heart tightened, and he immediately controlled the Six-Armed Profound Ice to assist in the battle.

But he saw his mother slap her quiver; immediately, dense ice mist overflowed from the quiver, converging toward the center of the bowstring.

The bowstring was drawn back, and a single arrow, condensing all the cold glints, slowly formed.

The instant the string was released, the arrow flew out like a dragon's roar.

Wherever it passed, the wind and snow stilled.

The Frost Demon's breath torrent was pierced by a single arrow; the arrow's momentum did not diminish, driving straight into its brow.

Boom!

Amidst the shaking of earth and mountains, the entire giant beast began to crystallize from within, instantly transforming into a towering ice sculpture that refracted dazzling light under the setting sun.

Crack!

Cracks appeared, spreading rapidly.

At this moment, his mother slowly lowered her longbow.

Boom!

The ice sculpture exploded, the gale carrying flying ice crystals.

His mother stood in the air like a Valkyrie, her silver-white hair flying wildly, facing the assault of the violent battle aftermath.

The Challenger Notification also rang out in Ning Shu's mind immediately after.

"I said why the rewards were cut in half; it turns out the experience leeches arrived."

"Mom, how much Shou Shou Jili do you have left?" Ning Shu showed no shyness, asking straight out.

The 53,000 Shou Shou Jili collected by the Gold Coin Guild's Guild Master as a "Shou Shou Jili Fee" had already been refunded.

But to purify the Six-Armed Profound Ice and bring it back to Emperor Tomb Village, he still had a shortfall of 100,000 Shou Shou Jili; perhaps his mother had this huge sum on her.

"How much do you need?" His mother drifted down from the sky, the longbow in her hand dissolving into ice crystals.

"100,000."

"None. Ten thousand was spent on curing the illness, thirty thousand on the Critical Hit Painful Painful Minghun, plus other expenses; I don't have much Shou Shou Jili left on me." His mother arrived and landed in front of him, spreading her hands to show helplessness.

Hearing his mother's answer, Ning Shu immediately felt curious:

"Mom, the Force Maul and Shattered Blade Painful Painful Minghun have the highest cost-performance ratio in the early game; why did you start with the Critical Hit Painful Painful Minghun? Your understanding of the game isn't good."

Ning Qing heard this and said in a bad mood:

"It's obvious you haven't understood the game content thoroughly. The Painful Painful Minghun provides absolute mechanics. The damage I deal with my Level 428 Artifact, boosted by Critical Hits, can still deal multiplied damage. So the higher my base damage, the higher the lethality of the Critical Hit trait. Do you know what that means?"

His mother's explanation made Ning Shu instantly understand the reason.

The extremely high base damage provided by the Frost Dome Star Pendant, combined with the multiplier boost of Critical Hits, was nothing short of explosive output after Martial Soul fusion.

This was precisely the most terrifying aspect of the player mechanics.

Mechanics cannot be interfered with by any external force; the descriptions all state absolute logic.

Looking at it this way, spending 30,000 Shou Shou Jili to embed the Critical Hit Painful Painful Minghun was incredibly worth it.

"By the way, what do you need 100,000 Shou Shou Jili for? Do you want to come to Moon Eclipse City to accompany your mother as soon as possible?"

Ning Shu shook his head:

"My treatment isn't urgent; I've managed for so many years. It's mainly to bring the Six-Armed Profound Ice back to Emperor Tomb Village, or to store it in the pet space normally. Otherwise, every time I return to the village, I have to be on edge, afraid it will be lost if left outside. The Guide said purification consumes 150,000 Shou Shou Jili; I only have 50,000 on me, so I'm short by 100,000."

Hearing her son's explanation, Ning Qing nodded to show understanding:

"Then let's set out and earn Shou Shou Jili. There are far too many places where Shou Shou Jili will be needed later."

Having spoken, Ning Qing raised her hand to generate an ice-crystal longbow, her body lifting into the air:

"Follow me. The monsters nearby don't need your Six-Armed Profound Ice to absorb damage; your mom one-shots everything with a critical hit. Just act as a tag-along to soak up experience."

"Coming." Ning Shu decisively controlled the Six-Armed Profound Ice to follow his mother's departing figure.

Two days later, a post exploded across the forum.

The post was a video shot by a player from a bystander's perspective.

In the footage, cold wind swept over the frozen land; countless black shadows circled in the blizzard above, their ice-crystal wings slicing the air and emitting a high-pitched hum.

Below lay a dense mass of Icefield Tyrants.

Suddenly, the ground trembled as a burly six-armed beast tore through the wind and snow, charging out.

Its six arms, wreathed in cold mist, tore through the beast horde like a meat grinder; the monsters in the front row didn't even have time to scream before their bodies were blown apart by a punch of blood qi released from a distance.

Visible on the beast's shoulder stood a youth wearing a newbie black cloth robe.

He gripped the beast's hair with one hand, controlling it to rampage through the monster pile, crushing the creatures along the way with the most primitive form of violence.

The next second, the lens captured a streak of silver light.

Then came the sharp sound of wind being torn apart.

A silver-haired woman drew her bow while suspended in the air; her body resembled a blue sun. With a casual shot, the moment the bowstring vibrated, a swarm of black shadows in the sky turned into ice sculptures and plummeted.

With every subsequent faint twang of the bowstring, swarms of flying monsters turned into ice sculptures and burst apart.

It was less like hunting and more like a one-sided slaughter.

After watching the video content, the forum players' first thought was: what business do two top-tier veteran players have stirring up trouble at the Eternal Silence Binghu?

However, guided by comments pointing it out, many players noticed the names hovering above the two figures only upon rewatching the video.

Both of these names were famous.

One was the Great Emperor, who led the comprehensive level rankings for this round of newbies by a huge margin.

The other was Chenxiang, ranked third on the level-rush activity leaderboard.

The combat power they displayed left many veteran players stunned and speechless.

This generation of newbies is ridiculously strong.

Last generation, a newbie who won by a cliff-like lead already made many veteran players think it was awesome.

This generation is the same, producing two monster-level newbies.

Just as forum players were discussing this heatedly, the player who posted the thread edited it and uploaded two screenshots.

He stated this was firsthand information obtained after approaching the two newbie big shots to ask.

The two screenshots were respectively of the artifact longbow "Frost Sky Starfall" in Ning Qing's hand, and the super pet controlled and captured by Ning Shu: the Six-Armed Profound Ice.

The screenshots once again sparked heated discussion among forum players.

Many veteran players had also encountered opportunities while exploring the Monster World; after all, the Monster World is full of burial grounds for powerful races, and encountering opportunities or digging up treasures happens every day.

But such a lucky encounter is indeed rare.

While making forum players feel envious, many guild leaders formed the Ren De Xiang Fa of recruiting these two newcomers.

It can be confirmed that as long as these two newcomers join, the guild's strength will be significantly enhanced.

At this moment, the God King, who was in the library of Emperor's Tomb Village, also saw this post.

When he saw the analysis screenshot information of Frost Sky Starfall and the Six-Armed Profound Ice, a thought surfaced in his mind.

There is a resource node in the Winter Snowfield region that has never been secured.

Among the resources produced by this node are very rare space-type spiritual ore.

But the node is occupied by a massive number of Snow Ridge Great Desolations.

The levels of the strongest few Snow Ridge Great Desolations are generally 140+, making it difficult even for the Divine Hall Guild to contend.

But if these two monster-level newbies join, there might be a chance to secure it.

Especially this woman named Great Emperor; she wields a weapon of equipment level 428. The killing power displayed in the footage is truly terrifying, and it also comes with an ice-freeze control effect.

Although weapon level has no direct relation to how many levels of monsters can be hunted, this number only represents the Wu Qi De Pin of the weapon.

But it can be confirmed that this weapon's killing power is sufficient to break through the defenses of the strongest few Snow Ridge Great Desolations.

For us players, as long as we can break the defense, we can definitely kill.

He has plenty of ways to create an output environment for this player.

As long as the Kongyuan Peak node is secured, the Emperor's Tomb Village mining district will be able to produce space-type ore, and the price in the trading hall will surely drop.

This would be a good thing for the Divine Hall Guild, and even for all major guilds.

Space-type ore is the core material for crafting teleportation arrays; currently, all major guilds are actively expanding external resource points, and the only problem is that coming and going is too troublesome.

But with space teleportation arrays, many tedious problems will be solved.

It's just that the current price of Kongyuan Stone is too high; since the server opened, the price has risen multiple times, making the cost of crafting teleportation arrays Gao Ang.

"It is time to secure Kongyuan Peak."

Closing the book, the God King immediately stood up and walked out of the library.

Along the way, he summoned his contact list and sent friend request applications to Great Emperor and Chenxiang, these two newbie players.

Not long after, the friend request was accepted.

(End of this chapter)
