Zen blinked. Party Raid? Would that make the boss stronger or weaker?
His question was soon answered when Liu Feng and Akiko struck the orange slime boss simultaneously. Sasha mirrored Zen’s shocked expression, full of disbelief as the orange blob exploded.
“Isn’t this cheating?” Zen asked himself and watched as orange goo rained down upon him. Standing above everything were the two most powerful members of his party and guild.
[Armoured Slime Boss has been defeated by Party “Godly Food”. Calculating contribution rates to distribute Area Boss rewards.]
“Are you ok?” Akiko walked up to Zen, and Liu Feng touched the orange goo that fell onto his hair in curiosity.
Zen felt embarrassed that he had to be helped up by a lady even though he was a man. Even Sasha ran over to them like she didn’t just almost die, and Zen wondered if the mafia heirs were incapable of feeling fear. None of his party membe
For everything that happened, there was a reason behind it. For the longest time, Zen wondered about the intention of the Godfather. Why did the Godfather summon five hundred candidates for a battle royale tournament? If this was truly a battle royale, why did they have the option to become the Godfather by clearing the game? Shouldn't it be a simple slaughter-fest like what Johan wanted to do?No, it wasn't that straightforward. He didn't know if anyone else understood the Godfather's intentions, but Zen had an inkling the Godfather wasn't just looking for a strong candidate.Several things made Zen think that the arrangement was odd. While there were several candidates with unawakened blood, Zen didn't know why the Godfather would arrange a slaughter-fest on the first day with four hundred candidates eliminated. The only plausible conclusion was how there was a need to build a certain mindset into candidates before the selection.After meeting Bolt and Yelena,
Before even the alarm rang, someone was knocking on his door.Zen woke up with a groan. Sleep deprivation might kill him faster than Johan could at this rate."Who is it?" he stumbled across his room and opened the door."A delivery has arrived for you," the invigilator lady growled, and Zen nodded, thanking her for the package.At once, his mind cleared when he saw that it was the Egg Encyclopaedia with a letter to explain more about today's Egg Hunt Event.Zen quickly logged online to check if anyone else received their deliveries and a letter about the Egg Hunt Event.As expected, the early birds already knew about it. In fact, Zen was surprised at how many early birds there were. Did the people in the mafia not need sleep? Then again, Zen logged out much later than they did.[Akiko "Death Princess" Kanzaki sends you a message. "Please come to my room once you have woken up. The rest of the Guild will be waiting for you. The items
According to Zen's Egg Encyclopaedia, the eggs are prone to spawning in only a few locations based on their descriptions.===[Red Egg]Points: 1Abilities: Runs very fast.Other Information: Can be found in open areas.[Blue Egg]Points: 2Abilities: Poisonous shell.Other Information: Hides in long grass.[Green Egg]Points: 3Abilities: Camouflage.Other Information: Loves food.[Yellow Egg]Points: 4Abilities: Extra Fragile.Other Information: Loves to swim.[White Egg]Points: 10Abilities: Flight.Other Information: Perches on high places.[Black Egg]Points: 50Abilities: Countdown.Other Information: Hates crowding.===While some were obvious, others were questionable."For now, secure the garden, kitchen, swimming pool and rooftops. It is easy to farm points in these areas. Oriol
While everyone else busied away to prepare for the event that could happen at any moment, Zen logged into his virtual world. There was something he had to confirm.Ever since he found out how virtual reality games were a cheating way to bridge the ability gaps between reality and games, Zen had something he wanted to do. He might not be able to match any of these crazy mafia heirs and heiresses in combat. Zen was just an ordinary teenage boy who did not undergo any of their crazy training. He was poison resistant, had the power to set someone in flames or steal people's luck. However, he would like to think that he was more knowledgeable than anyone else about games and their loopholes.There were safe zones in the Egg Hunt arena. Zen memorised everything he could about the school that the first event will be hosted based off. However, what he lacked was the ability to escape his safe zone if it was compromised.Sure, Zen trusted his party members to come to his
There was a huge commotion over in the cafeteria where Oriole and her party gathered. Even the Impenetrable Shield could not stop everyone. Negotiations broke down when the hungry mafia heirs and heiress understood the person they wished to see the most that morning wasn't coming."Boo! Who are you? Where's our cute chef? Call him out!"Match growled lowly and shoved the boy who said that. "Watch it," he warned and ignited his hand on fire as a real threat. "That cute chef is Guild Survivor's advisor and a man under the Seer's protection. I may not be able to kill you here, but I can definitely do so in the event. Watch your tongue if you want to live."The reminder that Zen was indeed under Liu Feng's protection made the crowd sombre. They were simply too used to that civilian behaviour by Zen that it slipped their mind. Most of them like Zen enough to not kill him in the event and let him go if they passed him by. Some even came here intending to offer Zen a p
The candidates were preoccupied when they found themselves getting pulled suddenly into the virtual game world.The sudden change in environment took many by surprise, and some felt sick. However, the mood changed almost at once when they realised the Egg Hunt had started. Forgetting their sickness, everyone launched into action, contacting their guild and party members. Others who worked alone started hunting eggs for points.There was no countdown for the event to begin, and some students fought each other. The bystanders left quickly, not wanting to get caught in the scuffles. Some were too afraid of leaving their spawn areas, while others were on the run as if they knew where they were heading.Zen was disoriented for a while as people ran and shouted everywhere. He was in an unfamiliar place, and while his mind understood where he was, his body still felt sick from the transfer. One moment he was falling off the roof, and the next moment, he was in the laun
Felix looked around carefully. Nothing seemed out of place, but his instincts smelled a rat, a very cornered and frightened rat. However, before his hunt could begin, the Hunter had to defend himself from a very violent assault as the door blasted open.Zen thought that Akiko was here, but the person was too tall to be her. Instead, he heard a man's voice and Zen rejoiced. His big brother was here!"Thank you for taking care of my man, but I'm not that generous to share him, so you'd need to leave."At first, Felix did not understand what the Seer was talking about. However, he recalled the strange news going around that the Seer picked up a stray puppy who made good food. Things clicked, and Felix laughed. The rat in the laundromat turned out to be the nerdy kid ranked dead last. No wonder Felix could not find them. They were good at hiding, just like how they hide in the opening ceremony.The dagger tore Liu Feng's sleeve, and Felix quickly flipped over
"What happened here?" Zen asked Sasha.The kitchen was so badly messed up, but there were still some things functioning when Zen checked. Thank goodness for that!Sasha sighed. "We were fighting some dude that had guns in his body. I don't know what kind of freak he was, but his family did a number on him. We fought him with guns, and I shot him in a place that created sparks, so he fled. I assume he wanted to capture this flag, but resistance is futile. AS long as those monsters within the higher ranks do not come, we can hold everyone else off with numbers."Zen studied the people gathered in the kitchen base. Most of them were newly joined group members, and without Liu Feng or Akiko, he had the next highest authority in the guild."Rookies," he addressed the anxious mafia heirs and heiresses. "I am Zen, Guild Survivor's advisor. Give me a brief report on the ground situation."Sasha stood behind Zen with her sniper rifle in her arms. The Russia
