Chapter 14 - Chapter 14: The World's Fastest

"Smiling Frog" isn't just one of the top ten strongest healers in the National District from the previous life, but also the tenth most beautiful person in the district's beauty rankings. If not for being too young, she might have ranked even higher.

It's said that she's as exquisite as a doll, a classic case of someone admired by everyone.

What left Lin Yi a deep impression wasn't her astonishing healing capability, nor her stunning looks, but rather... her sneaky theft skills.

Yes, you read that right, a Priest possessing the thieving divine techniques that Thieves dream of.

No one knows why a Priest like her would have such a skill in stealing.

You might say if she has it, she has it, but generally a Thief's stealing skill can only be used on humanoid NPCs or monsters.

But she's different.

Her skill can be used on players, and what's frightening, her theft success rate once despaired a scoundrel who specialized in killing female players.

She's also the only one who, relying solely on the theft skill, managed to steal from a high-end player so much that they didn't dare to carry their equipment out.

It's hard to imagine, a girl with divine looks and a holy profession like a Priest, secretly tagged with the title: Ghost-hand Thief.

It's hard to tell whether to cry or laugh over such a situation.

After all, having a title in the game recognized by everyone is a supreme honor!

This is something that countless players dream of, but unfortunately, titles truly recognized by all players are very few.

.........

When Lin Yi walked out of the teleportation array in Cyan Dragon City, he suddenly felt a tingling sensation in his heart.

Clenching his empty hands, Lin Yi couldn't help but wail:

"No way..."

The last one who surprised Lin Yi this much was Red Eyes, and now it's this Smiling Frog, are these two cheating?

How come the game just started and there are already skills that destroy the 'balance.'

It's pretty clear someone consciously chose to ignore themselves.

.........

At the moment in a secluded corner of Clearwater Village, two girls were drooling over the item attributes shared on the public screen.

Wand of the Sage

Weapon

Quality: Rare

Magic Attack: 17-21

Usage Level: 3

Additional Attributes:

Intelligence +4

This was a personal weapon left behind by a sage who once passed through Clearwater Village, and it holds a certain value.

A female Mage named "Don't call me Potato," nervously said:

"Sister Xiao Ai, you stole Feng Hua's weapon, do you think he'll come looking for revenge?"

Beside the female Mage, a young girl wearing just a coarse robe hesitantly replied:

"Probably... not?"

"I say, Sister Xiao Ai, you have some nerve, daring to steal even Feng Hua's equipment, haven't you thought of the consequences?"

After the initial shock, Smiling Frog gradually calmed down,

"What consequences? At most, I'll return it when the time comes, what can he do to me in the game."

With that, Smiling Frog quickly equipped the weapon, showing a hint of pride on her face,

"I gotta admit, it's quite handy to hold."

Don't call me Potato rolled her eyes,

"That's a god-tier weapon, of course it's handy!"

"How about... let me hold it too?"

"No!"

Smiling Frog quickly clutched the equipment to her chest, afraid her sister in front might snatch it, leaving Don't call me Potato speechless.

"Stingy!"

"Hehe~~"

"By the way, Potato, what were you about to say?"

Don't call me Potato suddenly glared,

"Don't call me Potato, damn Xiao Ai!"

"Oops, forgot, forgot,"

Smiling Frog quickly apologized,

"My dear girl, who did you say was coming?"

"Go away, annoying!"

Don't call me Potato then remembered the important stuff, anxiously stomping her foot,

"You better log off quickly, I heard from my sister your brother is coming home tonight."

Upon hearing this, Smiling Frog's face changed,

"Oh no, didn't he say he wouldn't be back tonight?"

"Not talking to you anymore, Potato, I need to log off, see you tomorrow."

After speaking, he quickly logged off.

Watching Smiling Frog's figure gradually become ethereal, Don't call me Potato cried out angrily:

"Ah ah ah, don't call me Potato!"

"Hey Potato, what are you doing here? Let's level up together!"

"Bang!"

.........

Standing next to the teleportation array in the center of Cyan Dragon City, Lin Yi couldn't help but sigh: this is the first time he had seen Cyan Dragon City so deserted.

As one of the Four Major Cities in the Huaxia District, once players gradually reach level ten, this main city will slowly become bustling with activity.

Due to the monsters around Cyan Dragon City being of level 10-20, along with two important dungeons being outside the city, it won't be long before such a deserted scene becomes a thing of the past.

At this moment, besides Lin Yi, the only ones in Cyan Dragon City are the NPCs who have been endowed with special 'intelligence', each busy with their own tasks.

It's said that in the game "Glory of the Gods," every NPC is a completely independent entity, each given their own life and intelligence by the system.

The officials once said that you will never find two identical NPCs in the game.

Even those densely packed soldiers apparently have their own independent thoughts and a complete life history.

It's at moments like these that people can't help but marvel at the level of complex algorithms required to achieve such an astounding feat!

This means that when an NPC dies, it means they are erased from this world completely.

Of course, this doesn't include those humanoid monsters that respawn repeatedly.

"This..."

Just then, Lin Yi suddenly noticed a piece of equipment emitting a purple glow had appeared in his backpack,

Punishment Treasure Pearl (Sealed)

Special Weapon

Quality: Epic

Magic Attack: 26-51

Magic Defense: 1-10

Critical Strike Damage: +20%

Accurate: 5

Usage Level: 10

Additional Attribute 1: Intelligence +20

Additional Attribute 2: 30% chance to trigger a life steal effect when attacking, converting 10% of the damage into your own health.

Additional Attribute 3: 10% magic damage bonus against players with red names.

It is said that during the Demon Race Invasion period, this was a divine treasure lost on this continent by the Divine Court in collaboration with the Hundred Races. However, it seems to have been sealed by some force, no longer possessing its former glory.

Unseal Progress: 0%

Lin Yi stared dumbfounded at the piece of equipment in his backpack, wondering when did he get this equipment?

Could it be that there's some bug in the game?

Because Lin Yi logged off just after reaching level 10, he still didn't know about the world announcement triggered because of him.

This equipment is actually the system's random reward for being the first player to reach level ten.

Regardless of whether it's due to a system bug or not, Lin Yi felt that he already experienced enough strange incidents; one more wouldn't make a difference.

Last time, after defeating a boss and being forcibly logged off, he found he had obtained another piece of epic equipment, could there be some connection between these incidents?

Noticing that this piece of equipment is a special weapon, Lin Yi was quite surprised, no wonder he couldn't equip it.

Everyone knows that there are many hidden professions in the game, and these so-called special weapons are exclusive to those hidden professions.

Looking at this Treasure Pearl in his backpack, if he guessed right, it should be an exclusive weapon for a magic system hidden profession.

Lin Yi was thinking, he wondered if a Spirit Summoner could use it.

It would be best if it could be used; if not, it would be such a waste given its mouth-watering excellent attributes!

If having an epic level equipment in his backpack shocked Lin Yi, then when he discovered he had unknowingly acquired a glittering title, he was truly stunned.

To have such a dazzling title, it must at least be a unique title above the district level.

Title: World's First Speed

As the first in the world server to reach level 10, 'World's First Speed' belongs to you.

Additional Attribute: All NPC Affinity +100

In this game, titles are definitely one of the hardest special rewards to obtain, and they are also the only ones that can increase NPC affinity.

From mid-game onwards, countless people have gone crazy trying to get a title.

Yet this kind of world-class title that countless people longed for, Lin Yi showed nothing but disdain and resignation.

No matter if others misunderstand, Lin Yi definitely wouldn't flaunt this kind of title on his forehead, it's just too embarrassing.

Just then, Lin Yi's communicator suddenly rang.

"Too Cool for School?"

Lin Yi glanced at the game time, a playful smile appeared on his face,

"I was just about to look for you."
