Song Jian stayed in the rental room and didn’t go out. After thinking for a long time, he decided to give the Octagonal Han Sword to Wu Xuan and claim he had borrowed it from Wu Xuan. As for the blood on the sword, Song Jian would feign complete ignorance, insisting he had just gotten the sword back;

As for how Wu Xuan would explain, that wasn’t Song Jian’s concern. Even if Wu Xuan implicated Song Jian, he believed that with the power behind the underground boxing ring, it would be easy to settle this matter.

“However, it’s better to give Wu Xuan a heads-up in advance.” With that thought, Song Jian dialed Wu Xuan’s number.

“Hello, Old Wu?”

“Alt, who is this? If there’s something, say it quickly; I’m busy!” The call was noisy, and Wu Xuan’s impatient tone was laced with alcohol.

At this time, in the largest KTV room in Coastal City, Wu Xuan was lying on the sofa with a phone in one hand and a beer bottle in the other, his eyes shining as he watched a young girl dancing in the middle of the room.

It was also “a chaotic dance of demons” around him, a group of wine and meat friends reveling wildly and dancing;

“It’s Song Jian!”

“Song Jian, which Song Jian? Song… Ah, it’s Brother Song!” Wu Xuan seemed to remember Song Jian and was suddenly startled, breaking into a cold sweat in fright. He quickly lowered his voice and said, “Brother Song, wait a moment; it’s too noisy here. I’ll go outside to talk.”

After leaving the room, Wu Xuan carefully held the phone and spoke softly, “Brother Song, is there something you need? The next fight might be in five days, and I’m arranging it for you. Don’t worry!”

“Hehe, Ihaveafavor to ask,” Song Jian chuckled. “The police came to my door today and took my sword away, and there’s blood on it, so I think there might be some trouble…”

Upon hearing this, Wu Xuan immediately reassured him, “Don’t worry, Brother Song, it’s fine. The weapons in the club have marks on them, so even if the police take them, they’ll return them to you soon. Don’t worry.”

Song Jian was surprised, having not expected the underground boxing ring to wield such power. He breathed a sigh of relief, thankful he hadn’t fled; otherwise, he would have needlessly exposed himself.

“Alright, that’s good. Notify me when there’s a match, and I’ll hang up for now.” Song Jian hung up the phone and exhaled.

Although there were still some troubles, at least they could be covered up for a while. It seemed he had to be more careful in the future, not giving himself away again.

The identities of many players were already known. There was no pattern in this game’s selection of players. Clearly, the police had already become players and were using the means they had gained in the game to capture other players. Song Jian had to hide his identity and grow stronger gradually.

A day passed quickly, and night fell. Song Jian lay flat on the bed, patiently waiting. Soon, the phone screen on the bedside table lit up. A skeleton hand emerged from the screen, grabbed Song Jian, and pulled him into the phone.

Song Jian was always uncomfortable with the way he entered the game each time, feeling a sense of being forced in. After a strong feeling of weightlessness, he found that he hadn’t entered the game directly but was instead in the settlement interface that appeared after each game. He was surrounded by a starry sky.

“Wiry is the post-level settlement now shifted to the beginning of the next game?” Song Jian wondered aloud.

Soon, the images from the last time he entered the game appeared before his eyes: each time he received a mission, fought a BOSS, obtained a sword technique, and completed a main quest…

System: Player has completed the main quest. Level evaluation raised upon mission completion;

System: Player has completed regional quests…

System: Player has completed hidden quests…

System: Player has completed area plot quests…

System: Player has achieved a final level evaluation of SSS. Rewards: 5 free attribute points, 2 gold skill points;

System: Player’s combat power has reached 10,000. From now on, there will be no more main quests released. Players will have greater freedom in the game. Please continue to explore this unknown world where anything is possible!

“Free attribute points? Gold skill points? No more Vitality Points recovery speed bonuses?” Song Jian raised an eyebrow.

Gold skill points were treasures that could directly increase the level of any skill, even those active skills that were not yet at the maximum proficiency;

As for Vitality Points recovery speed, in comparison to the 500% Vitality Point recovery speed offered by the SSS rank or the five free attribute points and two gold skill points, it was far less valuable, but it ensured that Song Jian wouldn’t be easily killed in the game. Now that this protection was gone, the game would become even more dangerous for him.

“From now on, there won’t be any more main quests? But then, don’t I lose my main quest rewards in the future!” Song Jian furrowed his brows. Each main quest was critical for players, whether it was the Vitality Point recovery speed or the current free attribute points and gold skill point rewards that were crucial for the improvement of one’s strength.

“Could it be that reaching 10,000 combat power is a milestone, and once you reach it, the previous benefits are gone?” Song Jian guessed in his heart, but after much thought, he couldn’t figure it out. He could only shake his head and passively accept the system’s settings.

As for the increased freedom, Song Jian was even more clueless about what it meant!

With the free attribute points allocated as three points for strength and two points for agility, Song Jian’s strength attribute reached thirty, and his agility reached twenty-seven. For ordinary players, this was a desperate attribute. Even compared to a warrior class focused on strength, Song Jian could easily deal out crushing damage;

As for the two gold skill points, Song Jian didn’t hesitate to add them to the “Chaos One Qi Indestructible Sword Body.” This was Song Jian’s trump card; when deployed, its strength almost doubled, allowing him to contend even against level twenty Lord-level BOSSes.

At the third level of the Immortal Sword Body, all attributes increased by seven points, defense and resistance increased by 40%, sword weapon damage increased by 80%, skill power increased by 50%, and the duration extended to fifty seconds, while the consumption was reduced to twenty-five Immortal Sword Qi points.

Just as he finished using the free attribute points and gold skill points, Song Jian’s vision blurred, and he entered the game directly.

As soon as he entered the game, Song Jian received a system prompt;

System: Your territory has been invaded by enemies. Three buildings within the territory have been destroyed, five farmland plots have been completely destroyed, and the warehouse has been looted, suffering a loss of 200 units of food. Under the leadership of the housekeeper George, the invaders were all driven away, achieving a glorious victory. War Merit increased by 300 points;
