The Tycoon God of Online Gaming-Chapter 57 - Divine Skills Mask

It wasn’t because the monsters here were terrifying. They were just level 30 monsters. But even level 60 players would not dare to run amuck here. The Land of Slaughter wasn’t just a title given for fun, it held a massive treasure!

Chu You’s destination this time was not the treasure, but a small Divine Vestige.

He felt like he was stepping on pebbles, a bit spongy underfoot.

Carrying his halberd, he plunged deeper into the cave, candle in hand. Strangely, he saw no elite monsters or guardians.

“Boss, there’s a movement on the level rankings. Many job-advanced players have appeared, all from North America.” The Killing Commander transmitted a message at this moment.

Chu You seemed unperturbed, checking the game time with a glance. As expected, they were arriving.

In his past life, the North American ROD Guild had a few job-advanced players appearing around the same time.

At that time, it indeed created a sensation. It turned out that the North American server had a series of tasks that allowed gold coins to be exchanged for experience. Given the strength of the ROD Guild, it was only natural that this would occur.

However, when Chu You paused to open the level ranking board, he was stunned by surprise.

The leaderboard displayed over 40 job-advanced players, an occurrence that was impossible in his previous life. Chu You remembered that there had only been six job-advanced players at the time. What was happening?

Chu You quickly realized – the Red Queen’s mainframe had awakened slightly later than expected. He hadn’t predicted that such a minor delay would have such a significant impact on the game!

The irony was that Chu You had overlooked his own impact. His existence was changing the course of the game in its entirety.

“No problem, inform me as soon as their guild appears!” Looks like they’re planning to create guilds earlier than expected.

“Understood, boss.”

Chu You immediately proceeded. Not long after, the sound of flowing water reached his ears.

Chu You had reached the end – there seemed to be a large rocky mountain. To the side, a river flowed underground.

Commonly known as the Underworld River, Chu You stared at the black river surface knowing that its calm surface hid dangerous undercurrents. A player would be swept away immediately upon entering it.

But… There was nothing to worry about because at the end of this river was where the treasure was. The water would automatically carry any player there as long as the player wasn’t killed by a monster in the water.

Just as Chu You was about to transform, from the corner of his eye, he caught sight of something dark sitting by the riverbank.

Chu You walked over with a candle. A dilapidated wooden boat was floating there.

Huh? Why wasn’t this mentioned in his past life? Chu You was taken aback.

But soon, Chu You gently set his foot on the boat. And then a system notification rang.

System: Would you like to board the ‘Ferry of Souls’? The Ferry of Souls can help players safely cross the Underworld River. Boarding fee is 100 Gold Coins, would you like to board?

Is it possible?? Chu You was ecstatic. He immediately spent 100 Gold Coins and boarded the boat.

After Chu You had paid 100 Gold Coins, a white candle lit up at the front of the boat. The boat started to sway, leaving the bank to sail into the pitch-black river surface.

Going downstream all the way, Chu You looked indifferently at the elite beasts appearing in the river alongside the boat. These elite beasts were aquatic creatures, which could only attack players who were in the water. They could not come ashore.

Before long, Chu You saw a faint green glow spreading from the entwined rocks on both shores not far from him.

Upon seeing this material, Chu You squinted slightly, realizing its value. This was because it was called a Spirit Stone!

Not only is a Spirit Stone an upgrade material for equipment, it is also an advanced material for crafters. But its greatest value lies in its inherent attributes.

Spirit Stone: A player who absorbs 50 Spirit Stones can have their attack power +2, hit rate +1, critical hit +0.2, which is permanent and infinitely stackable. For magic-based classes, this translates into magic attack power, magic hit rate, and magic critical hit.

This is really a fantastic treasure. The reason why this place was known as the Land of Slaughter in the past life was because of the enormous utility it contained!

As long as a player has a mining tool, they can mine here and embark on a road to wealth.

This is a vast Spirit Stone mine; in the previous life, players mined here for a full two years before the mine was depleted.

Generally, this place is monopolized by several big guilds who will kill any outsiders they catch.

Without pausing for a moment, Chu You continued to drift deeper along the river on the wooden boat. Soon, he saw a tunnel with the shape of a ghost tooth carved out of the darkness in front of him. That place, was no man’s land for players. To go there meant instant death, regardless of level.

As his eyes remained calm, he drew the wooden boat towards the shore and disembarked. Looking up, he saw a small platform with a candle emitting a faint light. Beside it was a stone door.

This was the place…

Chu You immediately approached it. When he reached the stone door, he put away his candle and picked up the candle on the small platform. It was emitting a faint, chilling green light.

When Chu You had done this, the stone door suddenly opened.

A savage light flashed in Chu You’s eyes, and he immediately activated the One-Star Body Transformation of the War God skill.

His physique expanded instantly, Chu You’s human form vanished and was replaced by a terrifying humanoid figure called the Ancient God!

After transforming, Chu You immediately hunched over and rushed into the stone gate.

The inside was a high-level ancient underground palace, said to be the burial place of an empress.

-500, Chu You’s health was invisibly reduced by 500 points.

System: You are under the Power of Suppression, please leave immediately.

A negative effect had appeared on Chu You, with 500 points of health decreasing every 10 seconds.

In the dark, Chu You’s pupilless eyes emitted a faint red light. Paired with the chilling green candle in his hand, it looked particularly terrifying.

Following his memories, Chu You made his way to the deepest part of the underground palace, the place where the master of the tomb was located.

His health was constantly decreasing, however, thanks to the transformation, Chu You had more than 54000 points of health, which he could still afford to expend.

Arriving there, he saw seven giant caskets arranged in a petal shape.

Chu You was fully aware that he had to be extremely careful at this time. If he opened the wrong casket, the master of the palace would awake!

Out of these seven caskets, only one actually contained a treasure; the other six all contained the body of the empress.

His eyes sternly fixed on the seven caskets, memories in his mind continued to overlap with the scenes before his eyes, hoping to recognize the true casket.

Chu You stood still here for what seemed to be a long while, not because he was reluctant to open the casket, but he was hesitating as his memory was somewhat obscure when it came to discerning the real from the fake casket.

The memory was too distant, somewhat blurred. But he could not procrastinate like this any longer. Chu You steeled himself and opened one of the two caskets that could be the real one.

The sound of friction was particularly abrupt when the casket was fully opened. At this moment, Chu You felt some mist emanating from inside.

But at this very moment, the chilling green candle in Chu You’s hand went out…

Unperturbed, Chu You immediately popped his head in and saw a beautifully decorated mask quietly resting on a dark red embroidered pillow in the large coffin, which was empty.

The mask seemed to sense that it had been discovered by the player, and at this moment, it actually glittered like a treasure.
