Online Game: The King of the New World - Chapter 32

Chapter 32 Anlo Ruins
At three in the morning, this was a time when there were fewer online players, but even so, Xu You, who had been doing missions, would occasionally run into other players on the way back and forth to the mission destination, let alone the number of players in the campsite and the main city.

When Xu You returned to the Light of Victory Camp to hand over the mission, a lot of players in the camp suddenly started to quarrel. After listening carefully, it turned out that there was a new situation on the ranking list. Xu You’s heart skipped a beat and he immediately opened the ranking list.

First place, Sky Spear, Level 17, Profession: Sky Spear.

Second place, Blood Rose, Level 17, Profession: Assassin.

Third place, Bingfeng, Level 17, Profession: Frost Mage.

Fourth place, Azure Sea, Level 16, Profession: Guardian Knight.

Fifth place, Instant Heaven, Level 16, Profession: Storm Shaman.

Sixth place, Baby King, Level 16, Profession: Beast King.

Seventh place, Inscription of Holy Light, Level 16, Profession: Holy Knight.

Eighth place, Snow Wuhen, Level 16, Profession: Balanced Dryad.

Ninth place, Blaze of War, Level 16, Profession: Druid of Raptors.

Tenth place, Endless Sadness, Level 16, Profession: Arcane Mage.

Generally speaking, the rankings did not change much. Almost all of them were “familiar” people. However, some people’s rankings had changed. For example, the Blood Rose, which had always been ranked third, had surpassed Bingfeng to become second, while endless sorrow had pushed the unspeakable secret of the tenth place off the rankings.

However, these weren’t matters of concern to online players, The real reason for their commotion was that the first-ranked Sky Spear was in the limelight again, His profession had changed. This expert who opened the rankings had already obtained a hidden profession. Furthermore, one could tell from his name that the hidden profession of the Sky Spear was named by him. This had stirred up the conversation among the players, especially those who were reporters. There was something written in the headlines tomorrow.

However, the players only managed to calm down after a while. After all, it was within their expectations that these experts would obtain hidden professions. It was just a matter of time. There were already a few players who had obtained hidden professions on the forums. As experts on the forums, they couldn’t be any weaker than those people who had posted on the forums and flaunted their skills.

“Spear of Sky, it’s actually a hidden profession that you can name yourself. It’s really cool.” Xu You smiled as he looked at the changes on the rankings.

“That’s right, I also want to obtain a hidden profession. Let me name it the unyielding strong warrior. How good!” The orc warrior said enviously.

“Uncle, can you choose a more normal name?” Qingwu teased.

“That can also be called an unyielding war god!” The orc warriors’ eyes were filled with stars.

“Brother Buqu, there will be hidden professions. I believe you.” Xu You encouraged.

“I hope so too, but it’s not that easy. I’m not like you, Brother Wuyou. You actually obtained a hidden profession earlier than those experts on the list.” Ever since the Buqu warriors found out that Xu You had obtained a hidden profession, they didn’t talk to Qingwu about TV dramas. They had been pestering Xu You to watch the attributes of the halo knights all the way. After that, the orc warriors’ minds were filled with hidden professions.

“Don’t worry. If you don’t believe in yourself, at least believe in me. Follow me and hide your profession.” Xu You patted his chest and said. This was not his bragging. In previous games, he had obtained some trigger items from hidden professions. However, he was unable to use them. In the end, they were all rotten in the warehouse.

“Brother Wuyou, this is what you said. Don’t forget me if you have meat to eat in the future!” The orc warriors immediately came to their senses, causing Qingwu to snicker. Uncle Buqu was about to be tricked by Brother Wuyou again, so how could a hidden profession be so easy to obtain?

Xu You patted the orc warrior on the shoulder and said, “No problem. Put it on me. Let’s go. Let’s continue leveling up. I’ve already leveled up to LV15. I’ll be waiting for you guys. At that time, we can go to Cave of East Sea to play equipment.”

“Alright!” Qingwu was also excited. When she heard about the green equipment, she would be very excited. She always remembered that only by having good equipment could she become stronger, and only by becoming stronger would she be able to earn money.

As a result, the group left the camp to continue their quest. Their cultivation speed wasn’t slow anymore. Their rankings had always followed those fellows on the rankings, except for the top three. The three of them had already left the people behind by a full level. They were Supermen, so mortals shouldn’t compete with them anymore.

Now, Xu You was basically certain that this Sky Spear was the Overlord Spear of the past. Both of his arms were on the rankings, and the Sky Spear had even suppressed the Guild Leader of the Heartless Rose, the Blood Rose, and the Ice Age Guild Leader, the Ice Age Guild Leader. This had never happened before. It seemed that the former Overlord Spear and the current Sky Spear were going to fight in the New World.

These gossips circled around Xu You’s mind and flew away. Those experts were a little far away from him. It was better to think about his own matters first. He had two worries now. One was that the halo was too expensive, and the other was that the team was uneven. In order to enter the Level 20 instance dungeon near City of Sunrise-Cave of East Sea, he had to find five people to form a complete team. Otherwise, he would be beaten up.

With regard to the team, Xu You had a plan, And perfect, He’s got three people on his team, Two output professions and a tank were just one output and one healing. He had already planned on these two characters. They were his two brothers. Although he did not know what profession the two brothers were playing, with Xu You’s understanding of the two brothers, Boss Wei Mingyuan was sure to play a strong PK profession. That should be an output.

The second Zhang Ping practiced the treatment profession. Because Zhang Ping was a sideline maniac, he didn’t have much time to practice leveling, so he chose the treatment profession. In his words, having milk was like having a master. He wasn’t afraid that no one would bring him along.

Speaking of which, one had to mention the players’ career choices. At the beginning of the 21st century, after online games flourished, there was no way to change the situation. Tanks and healing were always uncles, and the output was always thugs. The same was true for New World.

From the attributes of Buqu’s strong warriors, As a tank, the orc warrior’s damage output was not high. It would take a long time for a person to level up, so it was presumably the same for healing. Therefore, relatively few players would choose tanks and healing. The damage output was high, and fighting was fierce. Of course, it was popular. As a result, the output was as large as a dog, and fighters were everywhere.

Therefore, it was not easy for ordinary idle players to find a tank and heal to play instance dungeons, Because tanks and healing players had already been booked by their relatives and friends, and most of them were recruited by the big guilds. Facing this situation, in the past, the three brothers usually worked together. Some trained in tanks, while others played healing. This way, there was no need to worry about this problem.

New World is different, The three of them had talked about this before, At that time, the New World hadn’t even decided when to start, At that time, they decided that if the three of them entered this game, they could play whatever profession they wanted to play. Because this game stipulated that a player could only create one character and could not change it. Unless they deleted the number and repracticed it, they could not be so casual. However, Xu You could still guess what profession the two of them were playing.

However, the problem was that Wei Mingyuan and Zhang Ping hadn’t contacted him yet in the game, and they didn’t know when they would appear, so it was urgent to find teammates.

Generally speaking, Xu You didn’t like to randomly find a player he didn’t know to play dungeons with. If this was to take into account the distribution of spoils of war and the technical aspects of the character of unfamiliar teammates, Although Xu You was currently the captain of the three-man team, he did not like to play this role. In the past, he was always the boss, Wei Mingyuan, in charge of everything. Although Xu You had that ability, he was used to relying on the “bad habit” that the boss dealt with. Xu You became lazier and lazier.

Right now, his two teammates, one pure and one “stupid”, this captain could only fall on him. Moreover, he had said that he would protect these two teammates, so he didn’t want to be the captain.

“Eh? What’s that thing over there?” The orc warrior suddenly cried out, interrupting Xu You, who was deep in thought as he walked.

“Huh?” Xu You raised his head and discovered that the orc warriors had already run to the side of the road.

Xu You and Qing Wu exchanged a glance before running up to the ruins. This ruins was called the Anluo Ruins. They had once killed a quest monster here.

“What’s the matter?” Xu You looked around and found nothing strange.

“I saw an NPC flying this way just now, but why is it missing?” The unyielding warrior scratched his head and looked at the ruins doubtfully. However, apart from the monsters and the few of them, there was nothing else in the ruins.

“NPC? Fly over?” Xu You looked at Qing Wu, meaning did you see it?

“I didn’t see it.” Qing Wu’s face was a little red. She had been staring at Xu You who was thinking all the way. She was dumbfounded when she saw him.

Xu You noticed that Qing Wu was a little shy and didn’t know why. He then asked the orc warrior, “Buqu, did you really see that it was an NPC, not a monster?”

“Uh, it should be an NPC, right?” The unyielding warrior scratched his head again.

“…” Alright, Xu Youbai asked.

After pondering for a while, Xu You said to Qingwu and the orc warriors, “Although I don’t know if it’s an NPC or a monster, Buqu should be right. There may be something wrong here. Let’s clear up all the monsters here before looking for them carefully.”

From some traces, it could be seen that this Anluo Ruins was originally a camp, but now it was a ruined wall. It should have been caused by war. Moreover, the war was very ancient. Now, this ruins had been occupied by a group of kobolds.

Fierce Kobold: LV15, 800 HP.

This monster’s blood was higher and its defense was thicker, but its attack power was lower. It didn’t have any skills. To Xu You and the others, it was just a dish. Very quickly, this small ruins was emptied.

“Let’s split up and look around. If there’s a situation, just shout. Remember to keep an eye on the surrounding players.” Xu You said. The current situation was different from when the undead Lex was found in Novice Village. This Anlo Ruins was right beside the main road. Players could pass by at any time, so they had to pay attention to this.

The orc warrior and Qing Wu had been following Xu You for so long, and they had also had some opinions about the hidden mission. Therefore, they were filled with confidence. They wanted to compete in this ruins to see who could discover the clues first.

But this time, Qingwu did not use her subtle observation as last time. Neither she nor Xu You found anything strange in the ruins. Instead, the most careless looking orc warrior found clues.

“Brother Wuyou, Qingwu girl, hurry up and come over. There’s something strange here!” The unyielding warrior shouted.

When Xu You and Qingwu heard this, they ran to the orc warrior’s side and discovered that the “strange thing” was just an ordinary stone slab lying on the ground. However, upon closer inspection, they discovered that the stone slab seemed to be embedded on the ground. With Xu You’s rich experience, they knew that this was a mechanism.

“Oh, Buqu, I didn’t expect you to discover a clue. How did you notice this stone slab? This place is full of such broken stone slates. This one looks very ordinary.” Xu You asked with a smile. He was in a good mood because they had encountered another hidden plot.

“This is a good man’s instinct. You won’t understand.” The strong man from Buqu used his hand to rub the hair on his head and said calmly.

Both Xu You and Qingwu only responded with one word: “Scram!”
