Becoming Invincible in the Game-Invaded World

Chapter 5

Chapter 5

In the New World online game, the pets in the game had innate skills.

Usually, there were two talent skills. Above Perfect, for the Legendary, Epic, and Mythical grades, they would have three skills.

Talent skills were also divided into levels.

The highest level was SSS. The three talent skills of the Vermillion Bird were all at this level.

It could be said that this Vermillion Bird was definitely a top-notch pet.

At this moment, there was another notification in the team.

[Please choose the ownership of this pet.]

In the game, this was the rule for a couple party that opened up a pet. They would ask to decide the ownership. Before Lin Chen could say anything, Liu Mengyao had already made her choice… She gave up the ownership of the red bird.

“The Vermillion Bird is a Fire-type pet. It’s a perfect match for your class. Bring it along. In the future, you guys will be in charge of dealing damage. I’ll bring my Stegosaurus baby to help you tank monsters and heal!”

Liu Mengyao said with a smile.

Lin Chen did not decline.

In the next moment, the vermillion bird belonged to Lin Chen.

Then, the world announcement appeared.

[Congratulations to player Forest Dawn for being blessed by the God of Fortune when he opened the pet egg. He has obtained a unique Mythical pet in the entire server: Vermillion Bird!]

Mythical grade.

He had the only one in the entire server!

As soon as the announcement was made, the originally silent world channel instantly exploded.

[Pine Fragrance: Wow, the server is about to shut down, but in the end, a vermillion bird appeared?]

[Professional troll: What’s the use? It’s useless, he can enjoy it for only a little while. The server will be shut down after a dozen days at most. The New World is really inhumane. F*ck!]

[Chasing Wind in Dreams: The troll brother hasn’t left yet? I didn’t see you go on the world chat today. I thought you’d quit the game.]

[Professional troll: I didn’t leave yet. In the end, I didn’t have the energy to troll anymore. Let’s leave it at that!]

[Jiang Haihe: It was very lively yesterday. Everyone was flaming. Today, everyone stopped. Everyone knows that it’s useless even if they scold the planner… However, now, there are actually people who spend money in this game to obtain the mythical pet. This is really unexpected!]

[Snow Foam: President Jiang is still playing? I thought you had disbanded and quit the game!]

[Jiang Haihe: Isn’t President Snow here too?]

[Snow Foam: Haha, I’m waiting for the new expansion pack. I want to play until the end to see what’s going on…]

It seemed that although the game was about to be suspended, because the game was too realistic and epochal, and had been running for a long time, there were still many people like Liu Mengyao who would play to the end until the server’s shutdown.

Snow Foam and Jiang Haihe were two of the more famous guild leaders in the game.

They rarely went to the world channel.

Due to the fact that many people had deleted their accounts and quit the game, the game had become relatively quiet. The news of Lin Chen unexpectedly opening the Red Bird had caused them to all appear suddenly.

There was much discussion around the world channel about this.

However, more people complained that New World’s developers were inhumane.

Of course, there were also many people who raised doubts…

The game was about to die. What was the use of a mythical beast at this time?

The fun times would be over soon!

In the end, it was a waste of money.

Lin Chen couldn’t be bothered to look at the world channel.

Because he still had things to do.

Now, he had already been targeted by some people.

Players were not allowed to PK in the main city. It was not that they could not PK at all, but there would be NPCs supervising them in the main city. If they discovered any PK behavior, the NPCs would stop them or even attack the party who initiated the PK.

The NPCs in the main city were all Level 180, and the current level limit of New World was only Level 100.

Of course.

Today, there was another announcement on New World’s official website.

The first part was an apology, but the second part indicated that the new expansion pack had been prepared and would open at two in the afternoon. At that time, the upper limit of the players’ levels would also be opened to level 120.

Finally, there was an apology from the entire development team.

They expressed that they were also very helpless and that they were very sorry that the game that had been running for 20 years was about to stop.

However, there was only one explanation for the suspension of the server: technical reasons!

What kind of technical reason could cause a game that had been running for 20 years to stop?

Many people clearly did not understand.

Although Lin Chen had been reborn, he was also not very sure.

However, Lin Chen knew that the game company and the game planners definitely did not stop the server on purpose.

After all, this game was about to invade reality!

What Lin Chen needed to do now was to continue increasing his strength.

Zhang Chunlin sent another batch of items to Lin Chen. There was a set of Level 100 Priest equipment and many Equipment Strengthening Stones. In Zhang Chunlin’s words, he had directly cleared his warehouse of all Equipment Strengthening Stones for Lin Chen.

In addition, there were many talismans and formulas for potions, as well as ingredients for making potions and so on!

These things were very important.

Lin Chen’s secondary class was a Talisman Master, and he could make some talismans.

Liu Mengyao’s secondary class was Apothecary.

These materials were relatively cheap.

The truly expensive things were not among these.

Zhang Chunlin asked Lin Chen in a private message, “If you want to strengthen your equipment, do you want the Five-Colored Spirit Stones? I can help you get a batch, about a hundred of them. If you’re lucky, there’s a chance that the enchanted strengthening will appear. It’s just that it’s a little expensive. The market price now is 1,000 each. In addition, there are also some top-grade treasure maps and so on. Many people are selling them now… Oh right, there are also people selling Divine Beast Pills.”

“Divine Beast Pill? What’s the price?”

Lin Chen’s interest was piqued.

Divine Beast Pill!

After eating it, it could permanently increase the pet’s attributes.

Moreover, it could allow pets to gain experience and gain enlightenment!

In addition to innate skills, pets also had epiphany skills. For example, it was impossible for a Vermillion Bird to rely on Scorching Burning Heaven alone to deal damage. Most importantly, it could not keep up the DPS because the cooldown time was too long.

Generally speaking, when a pet reached level 20, it would be able to learn a skill via epiphany.

However, there were also good and bad levels of skills that were learned this way.

From E, D, C, B, and A skills to SSS skills, there were a total of eight levels, corresponding to the quality level of the pet.

However, there was also a chance that ordinary pets would have D-rank skills.

However, Mythical pets also had a probability of having SS-level skills.

If he used the Divine Beast Pill, that would guarantee the ability to learn an SSS-rank skill.

Hence, Lin Chen wanted to buy it.

It would be best if he could directly use five Divine Beast Pills to max out the Vermillion Bird’s level, saving him the trouble of bringing it to level up.

However, Divine Beast Pills were usually not easy to obtain.

“A total of four. The other party wants 20,000,” Zhang Chunlin replied.

Five thousand per pill…

Lin Chen immediately agreed!

This price was unimaginable before the service stoppage announcement.

It would cost at least 100,000 each.

Lin Chen quickly purchased them.

He also took all the five-colored spirit stones.

This way, Zhang Chunlin was paid nearly 400,000 from his account.

Next, Lin Chen traded the Priest equipment to Liu Mengyao and said to her, “Follow me and teleport later. We’ll go to another main city. After we’re done with the equipment, we’ll go and clear the treasure map first!”

“What treasure map?”

“A top-grade treasure maps, they only cost 800 apiece now. I asked my friend to help us collect 200 of them. It’s enough for us to farm for a day! After we’re done farming, let’s see how many Divine Beast Pills or Bloodline Pills we can get. After we increase our combat strength, we’ll go to the Heavenly Palace to take a look.”

“Okay!”

Liu Mengyao immediately agreed.

Going to the Heavenly Palace with Lin Chen had always been her dream in the game.

It was very difficult to enter the Heavenly Palace.

First of all, they had to at least pass the Southern Heavenly Gate’s dungeon!

This was the most difficult dungeon in New World before the new expansion pack was released.

In the past, only those who spent hundreds of millions in the game could pass it.

But now, Lin Chen had only spent more than a million and already had a full set of divine equipment.

The two of them teleported away.

Lin Chen did this to shake off the gold diggers.

Unexpectedly, the other party followed him again.

Lin Chen frowned slightly.

At this moment, Lin Chen received another private message.

Zhang Chunlin: “That +12 staff was obtained by me. I offered 250,000.”

“Send it to me. I’ll transfer the money to you!”

Lin Chen was overjoyed.

The five pieces of the Hurricane Divine Mage Set were already complete.

“Don’t worry, there’s another set of things. I think you definitely need it… Hehe, do you want a ring for your game girlfriend? No need to thank me, I don’t need to explain, right?”

Zhang Chunlin sent a screenshot of a pair of rings with the item description.

[Storage Ring, can hold 1,000 items.]

“How much is it?” Lin Chen did not beat around the bush.

This kind of thing had great uses in the game, but it was not just a game.

If the game descended upon reality in the future, he would definitely regret not buying the storage ring!

“8,000 for both of them.” Zhang Chunlin smiled. “If you give me 10,000 yuan, I’ll take it as compensation for my hard work.”

“Okay!”

Lin Chen was shocked.

This thing was even more expensive than a diamond ring in real life before the game was discontinued. The highest price seemed to be 300,000 gold coins, which was equivalent to 300,000 in real life.

But now, there was someone selling some for only 4000 each?

Then Lin Chen would naturally take them!

Just as Lin Chen was stocking up on items, at a company base in a mountain, some programmers were working overtime on their keyboards. At the same time, the company’s higher-ups held another meeting.

This time, all the shareholders were present!

This company had the biggest online game on Blue Planet, New World!

In the meeting, a few people wearing reading glasses were sitting upright. One of them asked, “It has been confirmed that the energy of the Cosmic Stone can only last until April 28th?”

‘Yes, sir!’

A man wearing gold-rimmed glasses said, “Our programmers have tried everything. We’ve even invited scientists from all over the world, but there’s nothing we can do… The Cosmic Stone, this magical stone that was intercepted from outer space back then, is at the end of its rope.”

“It’s precisely because of this stone that New World was born. Sigh! It can only be said to be a pity.”

Many people sighed.

The old man in the lead said, “More than a billion players around the world are denouncing us now! During this last period of time, continue to do your maintenance work until the last day! This is also the only thing we can do for the players. In addition, speed up the development of the content in the Cosmic Stone and let more gameplay be presented to the players. At the same time, it will also accumulate a foundation for us to develop games that are completely independent in the future!”

“Don’t worry, Chairman. We will do our best!”
