Chapter 178 Back to the game: Changes in the level table!

After a few minutes, Xie Feng took Xie Yao and returned to Planet Earth. Although the view was beautiful, Xie Yao still needed to sleep for tomorrow.

On the other hand, while Xie Yao needed to sleep, Xie Feng, who had just experienced an abrupt ups and downs of emotions, could not fall asleep. Therefore, after a few minutes of consideration, he decided to log on to the game.

Lying on his bed, the necklace around Xie Feng's neck lit up with a faint light green flash indicating that the game was in the process of starting.

Soon, Xie Feng's conscience became blank and his eyes closed completely.

[Ding... Welcome to Samsara Online! Wish you a happy reincarnation!]

The moment Xie Feng's mind was dragged into the virtual world, even before he opens his eyes to see the world in front of him, the usual welcome message from the system sounded in his ears.

Although it had been a day since he last logged on, so much happened during the day that Xie Feng felt as if an eternity had passed.

After college, Xie Feng together with Gu Qianxue and Xie Yao went to the airport, met with a very annoying person, his emotions got out of control out of anger and almost killed Xiong Wang, during the flight he met with his first childhood friend from whom he had been separated by the fate, his childhood friend turned out to be the most famous superstar in Asia, the plane they were flying on was hijacked, he together with Yin Yue subdued the terrorists, at the military base the passengers' memories were erased and rewritten, he almost died during the night as he tried to gain more knowledge and control over his own powers and finally, his strength increased explosively.

Although it was only one day, the amount of emotions Xie Feng experienced was enough to mentally exhaust anyone. Precisely because he knew this, Xie Feng was worried about Xie Yao, Gu Qianxue, and Shen Xinya as, although to a lesser extent than him, they too experienced a turbulent day.

"Well... What should I do now..." Xie Feng murmured as he looked at his surroundings.

The last time he had logged off, he was together with Gu Qianxue and Xie Yao leveling up, so he was still in the open field. Precisely speaking, he was currently in the territory of the monster called One Horned Wolf of level twenty.

The first thing Xie Feng did even before he took a step, was to look at the level ranking tables and, as he expected, the first place was currently occupied by someone other than him.

[Level Ranking Table -

1) Player Name: Yao Mei / Level: 16 / Class: Fire Spirit / Title: None / Guild: None.

2) Player Name: Shiva / Level: 16 / Class: Gods Fall / Title: Creator of Myths / Guild: None.

3) Player Name: Kali / Level: 15 / Class: Seer / Title: Destiny's Daughter / Guild: None.

4) Player Name: Yang Tian / Level: 13 / Class: Earth Spirit / Title: None / Guild: None.

5) Player Name: Mu Wuying / Level: 13 / Class: Spirit of Love / Title: None / Guild: None.

6) Player Name: Feng Yao / Level: 13 / Class: Holy Angel / Title: None / Guild: None.

7) Player Name: Nangong Lei / Level: 13 / Class: Lightning Spirit / Title: None / Guild: None.

8) Player Name: Rainbow Butterfly / Level: 12 / Class: Succubus / Title: None / Guild: None.

9) Player Name: Definitive Arrow / Level: 12 / Class: Archer / Title: None / Guild: None.

10) Player Name: One Man Army / Level: 12 / Class: Summoner / Title: None / Guild: None.]

Since Xie Feng did not log on for more than 24 hours, it was to be expected that Yao Mei would surpass him in levels since she was always only one step behind him. Even so, Xie Feng was slightly surprised as although the level difference between him and her was only 1 level, the experience and time required was a lot. Therefore, unless Yao Mei had killed a boss rank monster, Xie Feng could only think of one more possibility, that was; Yao Mei spent most of her time connected to the virtual world.

Be that as it may, those were not Xie Feng's business. The level did not mean strength and he had already demonstrated that when he faced an entire army of players. Leveling up only granted a few stats and that was all. In this virtual world there were many important things, for example, equipment, pets, mounts, the player's class, the talent and skill one possessed in the real world, and so on.

The most eye-catching thing was undoubtedly the big change in the level ranking table after what happened the day before. When Xie Feng faced the God of Heaven and Sacred Wings guilds, both Yao Zenyu and Nangong Lei were killed by him and lost a level; therefore, while Nangong Lei fell from 4th place to 7th place in the table and was even surpassed by Xie Yao, Yao Zenyu was completely kicked out of the level table!

This was something that since the beginning of 100% immersive virtual reality games had never happened! You should know that many tried to assassinate Yao Zenyu in the past to make a name for themselves, but unfortunately it wasn't that simple. Yao Zenyu was not only known as the Prince of China because of his real-world status and appearance, he also received that title as he was always surrounded by powerful elite players who acted as his guardian! Not only that, Yao Zenyu's personal skill was top class; so even fighting against several players at once was no problem for him.

However, Xie Feng slaughtered Yao Zenyu under the eyes of his guards and then, he also killed his guards! It was as if he was telling the whole world that no matter how strong they were or how protected they were, if he wanted them dead, then they would die!

"Oh, right. Let's see if there was a system announcement about the 3 event missions."

When Xie Feng logged off yesterday, the system announced that 3 chain quests would soon be released as an event since more than 50% of the players in the entire world had successfully reached level 10, leaving the Beginner Village and officially starting the adventure in this world.

Entering the game forum, Xie Feng navigated for a few minutes before finally shook his head. Apparently, the event had not yet begun. But Xie Feng thought that the event would probably be triggered today or tomorrow.

Pulling out a teleportation scroll, Xie Feng waited for a few seconds before finally turning into a flash of light and disappearing from the scene.

_________________

The place Xie Feng had been teleported to was a small-sized city that was very close to the territory where the monster that attacked Eminentis City was located. Since he did not want to lose the traveling process, Xie Feng always bought return scrolls to every town or city he passed through.

Although this place was a bit farther away since he now had to go back through the Calamity Palace, it was an acceptable loss for him since at that time Xie Yao and Gu Qianxue were in trouble.

According to the detailed map that King Hu Yi gave Xie Feng before he left, Xie Feng could reach the Dark Forest after riding for a few hours.

With such a high speed as he had, probably only Xie Feng could afford to act so carelessly with this mission. Any other player would probably have to run without rest for more than ten days just to reach the right place.

As for whether other players could complete the mission successfully or not, Xie Feng had his own thoughts on the matter.

Although Xie Feng was very confident in himself or else he would not have accepted the mission given by the King of Eminentis City, he was not arrogant enough to confirm 100% that he could complete the mission. After all, the monster that kidnapped King Hu Yi's son was a monster that managed to break the city's defense for a moment.

Even if according to King Hu Yi's words, the monster only entered the outer area of the city and fled after sending a guard to sleep with its poison, this alone was enough to demonstrate the power that monster possessed.

After confirming the coordinates, Xie Feng called Ferghana's Horse out of the mount space and jumped on it. Leaving a cloud of dust behind him, Xie Feng activated his Cloud Path skill and rushed south without looking back.

[Ding!... Your pet 'Ling Long' wishes to leave the pet space. Allow, yes or no?]

Not even five minutes had passed since Xie Feng had left the vicinity of the small town when an announcement from the system surprised him.

"Uh?" Confused, Xie Feng agreed. He didn't know what was going on.

With a flash of white light, Ling Long appeared in front of Xie Feng, on the horse's back. Without a word, the little animal opened her small arms and clung to him as she looked at him with her big bright eyes and a big friendly smile.

"Puuh!"

Xie Feng blinked dumbfounded before finally bursting out laughing. He hugged the little dragon and asked:

"Did you miss me?"

"Puh Puuh!"

Without many surprises to Xie Feng, Ling Long nodded repeatedly as she looked at him.

"Hahaha..." Xie Feng laughed and gently patted Ling Long's head, "Sorry, it was a hard day. But I'll try to spend more time with you from now on, yes?"

Ling Long nodded with shining eyes. She looked happy.

In that way, a horse, a dragon, and a human traveled farther and farther away from civilization, deep into the forests of danger.
