MMORPG: Rise of The Dungeon Master.

Chapter 133 The Start Of First Step.

Dhruv looked at the forum with interest. "Mm, so I can still be involved in the main event if reached lvl 50. Interesting."

Dhruv knew that the main event was a chance for many players to make a name for themselves. The performance in the main event not only increases the player's reputation among other players but also among the NPC.

Dhruv had researched the Abyss guild, and he knew that in the game, the Abyss guild was famous by 10 for the Daemon position. All the NPC in the city ruled by Abyss treated a Daemon as their hero. The most famous ones were the Cold Beauty Rose and Tyrant Young_master. Yup, both of them had an unofficial title that was given by the NPC.

These Unofficial titles gave no power up, but one thing that the popularity among the NPC.

Most of the NPC did not care about the guild and other stuff. Only noble care for that. For other commoners NPC, they recognized the player by their achievement in the war.

Whenever 2 guilds fought for control of the city, all the NPC could see that war from the Arena present in each city. Based on the influence a player had in the city war, many commoner NPC gave these unofficial titles to the player. All the top guilds had a few players with unofficial titles. Getting unofficial did not represent overall strength but a player's overall control in their area or their unique way of fighting. But the guild competed over who had more players with these NPC titles.

The one thing about the NPC title was that you would lose these titles when you moved to the next city. But some of the most powerful players did not lose them and that become the permanent NPC title.

The top 5 guilds each had over 4 people with these permanent NPC titles. Then, from 6th to 10th, each guild had at least 1 NPC permanent title player.

Getting an NPC title was very easy, but making it permanent was very hard.

These titles represent the respect of players in the eyes of NPC. All the guilds wanted players that had permanent titles to increase their favor with NPCs over a certain area.

p??d? ???ê|,?ò? In Abyss, there were only 2 permanent title players. Then there was the 7th Daemon whom everyone excepted to make his title permanent soon.

Dhruv kept scrolling down the forum. "There it is." He looked at the panda hero video that was pretty much at the last of the trending videos list now.

"Panda hero…" Dhruv said to himself.

"Oh, Lil commander, you are also interested in the panda hero."

Dhruv looked up to find a girl. She was one of the oldest members of his team. The red hair girl shook her head. "Lil commander, don't waste your time on this popper."

Dhruv looked at her and asked, "Why do you say that?"

She looked at him and said with a smile, "You don't know how many people were there that even cross the next layer of the blue panda area. While he may be the first one to pass the first area of the panda paradise but there were far more talented players than him."

Dhruv asked with a frown on his face, "But why he is a scammer?"

She shook her head. "This guy is just a stuntman who only knew how to grab public attention. Well, forget about him Lil commander. Tell us what is city you are planning to go to."

Dhruv stared at her for a few seconds, then he looked around. There were around 20 some player. "What about others?" He asked her.

She looked down and said, "They plan to torture those guys more."

Dhruv nodded his head. They choose to not follow him. He was a little hurt as there were only 2 players here from his primary team that were with him from the start. Others just did not come. Dhruv shook his head. No point thinking about them. He looked at his teammates and said, "Our next destination will be Gazzi city."

After saying that, he started walking toward the path of the Gazzi city. Other members of his team were hesitant as they heard the city's name. The red hair girl asked him. "Lil commander, I don't think Gazzi city is good for us."

Dhruv ignored her and said, "I am going there. If you want to come, then follow me. Otherwise, you can go your own way." he said that and moved past all his teammates toward the Gazzi city.

All of his teammates looked at each other, there were not sure about following Dhruv, but then they also did not know what else to do. All of them looked at the 2 players in front of them. The 2 oldest and strongest members of the team.

The red hair girl looked at the guy on her side. He was the second member that was in the initial 5. She said, "they hurt him."

The guy shook his head and said, "Of course, it hurt him. But what can we even do?"

She looked at the man and said, "But I don't think they made the wrong decision." She said then and looked around. "It was going all good but suddenly lil commander recruit baggage without even asking us."

The guy shook his head. "I don't know what going on in your or others' minds." He pointed to Dhruv. "I experience how much superb commander he is. I don't care, as long as I am getting stronger." He started following Dhruv.

Slowly, one after the other, many players moved behind Dhruv. At last, there was only the red hair girl that looked at Dhruv and then at the other side of the road. After much thinking, she shook her head and then rushed to follow Dhruv.

…

Roan woke up. He looked around, only to find himself in the dark hall. "Shit, I black out again." He got up and looked at his mobile. "Mm 3 am. Damn My sleep schedule." He Cursed at himself and got up and walked up to his room.

He was in deep thought about all the things he had done so far in the experiment. 'Demon much have sent that honey to me. I can start the seed germinating. Meanwhile, I can still have time to think about the base stage problem.' Roan knew that the time was slipping quickly, he was feeling that he was forgetting something important. But no matter how much he focused, he just could not remember what it was.

' Well, no point in wasting time thinking about all that.'

He walked to his room, took a shower, and then jumped back into the game pod.

Roan logged in to the game.

…

Grave opened his eyes and found himself in the space village. Without wasting any time, he checked his inventory and there he found a few drops of golden shiny honey. "Mm, it was high quality." Grave had a smile on his face as he looked at that.

He teleported to the gene lab and moved to the Gene machine hall there. He grabbed up the pot with cloud soil and the glass bottle with holy water.

He moved to the artificial room and shouted, "Yunyun, come here!" As he did, Yunyun appeared next to him. "Masterrr, you are back." She jumped at him.

Grave sighed and said, "Where is the World tree seed?"

She looked up with wide eyes and asked, "why do you need that, master?"

He looked at the pot and holy water in his hands and said, "I want to germinate that seed."

She stared at both of the items and nodded her head. "Wait master, Yunyun will be back in a min." She rushed out of the lab.

Grave shook his head, and then he looked around the artificial room. He found many big and small snakes occupying the room.

Grave used god speech and command all the snakes. "All you go out and stay in the field around the lab."

"Hisssss," they hissed at him and then moved out. Grave ignored them and moved to the center of the artificial room.

He placed the pot with white cloud soil in the center of the room. Then he opened the artificial room environment panel.

He changed the whole environment to a dense forest one. At the center of the room, he left one empty patch of grass with no tree around that area.

All around the room, large trees grew out. All the white walls of the room got covered behind the thick trees.

A constant rain started all around the room except at the center of the room. There was constant sunlight falling on the grass patch.

Grave placed the pot down on the grass, then he opened the lid of holy water and dropped a few drops into the pot.

As the holy water came in contact with Cloud soil, the white soil shone in golden light.

The grass all around the pot where the golden light fell grew in size.

The red veins in the divine soil increased in size. This was the power of holy water from the river of life. Grass grew and wrapped around the pot. It was like the earth embracing the divine soil pot.

At the center of the room, a lump of grass formed. Only the top white part of the divine soil remained visible.

Grave closed the holy water lid.

"Master.." Yunyun rushed inside the artificial room. Grave stopped the rain. Yunyun rushed to him. "Here the seed." She handed him the emerald seed.
