Reborn: Super God of War

Chapter 505: I Like Cooperating The Most

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

“You tricked me!” After Falcon saw Lin Jie’s expression, he instantly understood that what Lin Jie had said about him and Hungry Tiger cooperating were all lies! Lin Jie just was wanted to get information out of him, and Falcon was truly fooled in the process!

Falcon flew into a rage out of humiliation. His eyes gleamed, he squatted down slightly, and two daggers were shot out from the sides of his boots, landing in his hands. At the same time, he wound up like a spring and charged forwards, with a wide throat attack, he directly sliced towards Lin Jie’s throat!

Meanwhile, Lin Jie’s face had a frown, and he had a blank look. His head was tilted, and he was in a daze. It was obvious that his scheme had worked just now, so he was trying to make sense of the information he had received just now. Thus, he was deep in thought.

Falcon took advantage of such a moment and attacked. In the next instant, the dagger successfully slid Lin Jie’s neck. The instant the dagger came in contact with Lin Jie, the tip of the dagger suddenly turned into three shadows—Falcon had actually slashed thrice!

‘Success!’ Falcon was elated, the corner of his mouth curled up slightly and revealed a satisfied expression.

However, something was wrong! Lin Jie actually did not receive any damage! Falcon took a closer look and realized that what he had sliced was just an afterimage, which was gradually disappearing now.

The Vanishing Step!

“You’ve already started grasping techniques of another job? Such a fearsome learning ability.” Falcon’s face darkened. He took a step back and disappeared, it was the basic skill of Bandits [Stealth Move].

When he was in Stealth, Falcon bent his body slightly, like a leopard searching for its prey; such a posture could allow him to pounce onto the enemy with the quickest speed the instant he appeared in front of his enemy. From such a detail, it could be seen that Falcon was definitely an experienced fighter that had been through many battles.

Lin Jie, on the other hand, disappeared, as if he had never appeared before. However, Falcon was extremely patient, as the saying went, “To not commit oneself until success is certain.” He was waiting for his prey patiently.

If Lin Jie could use Identify now, then he would be able to see that Falcon’s attributes had been completely revealed. Falcon’s Attack was as high as 1,100-1,200. For a Bandit, such an Attack Power was extremely formidable. Together with powerful skills, which could instantly deal high damage, even if it were Shield Specialists, it was highly possible that they would also be instakilled.

‘The one who destroyed the teleportation circle is him! That damn bast*rd! Since the teleportation circle was destroyed, the other people won’t be able to be teleported here unless our levels are raised to 150, and we find large amounts of materials to build the teleportation circle again.’

‘However, that also means that in The New Age now, the seven of us are the strongest with the top skills! Unfortunately, after the teleportation circle was destroyed, we can only live in the form of NPCs. The difficulty of raising our levels increased by tens of times, but there are some benefits too. If we obtain Lone Wolf’s Broken Blade, then after we go back, we could receive the rewards we deserve and even profits!’ Falcon took a deep breath as he thought of these in his mind and breathed out slowly. He then calmed down and was no longer anxious. He suppressed his eagerness for benefits and became patient.

As expected, his mental fortitude was extremely strong, it exceeded that of normal people—that was also the most basic condition of being an expert.

However, no matter how strong one’s mental fortitude was when facing overpowering strength, it was useless. For example, now...

Up to 100 rays of Holy Light suddenly descended from the sky, and immediately after, a complete squad from the Holy Church Army appeared!

In the front row were Protection Paladins and Retribution Paladins. Behind them were countless of Holy Archers wearing armors and holding giant axes. The ones furthest back were the Sacred Fire Priests.

“Assassination attempt against the City Leader, unforgivable!”

That group of guards had naturally been summoned by Lin Jie, who had used the City Leader’s privilege. Amongst them, the Sacred Fire Priests and Holy Archers were high-level jobs. The Holy Light Arrows shot by the Holy Archers could penetrate shields and leave a Holy Mark, the target would not be able to escape. Meanwhile, Sacred Fire Priests were a Mage-type job in the Holy Church, their Divine Spell [Holy Fire] was extremely powerful.

Falcon saw that the situation was unfavorable, and just as he wanted to retreat, he could only hear the sounds of arrows being shot—tens of Holy Light Arrows had directly pierced through his body!

“Capture him alive, chain him up, and lock him in prison,” shouted Lin Jie. The guards instantly stopped attacking, and the Sacred Fire Priests used Holy Light Chain to chain Falcon up.

...

At the City of Light’s prison.

Ever since the previous jailbreak had occurred, the system had upgraded and reinforced the prison. Presently, at the only exit of the prison, there was a huge Holy Light rune drawn. No one was allowed to pass through it without permission.

Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!

Falcon used his fists to hit the prison’s bars and walls, unleashing the rage inside him. He did not care to continue keeping his calm, expert demeanor!

“Stop banging, it’s futile. This is a prison under the system’s rules. Even if you grasped top-tier techniques, you would not be able to escape,” said Lin Jie calmly as he stood inside the prison.

Seeing Lin Jie’s appearance, Falcon could feel his blood boiling inside him from anger. If they fought one on one, then he had 100 ways to kill Lin Jie as Hungry Tiger’s strength could not even be compared to his!

However, now, he was actually locked up in jail by Lin Jie. If he could, Falcon really wanted to kill Lin Jie 10,000 times.

“You’re not worthy of speaking the words top-tier techniques!” said Falcon in contempt as he looked down on Lin Jie. “You’re just a piece of trash that only knows how to scheme. You only have a superficial understanding of the top-tier techniques, and you dare to challenge us? You’re really looking for your death!”

“Don’t be in a hurry to talk big, I already know now that you and your teammates are not people from the land of The New Age. Or in other words, the server you were in was equal to the “testing server”. There is an abundance of resources for all of you, so you only had to train top-tier techniques without worries to prepare to face enemies, and that was enough. However, in The New Age, this game is different from the past games where it was split into servers like China server, Korea server, or US server. Everyone shared the same server, only they are in different lands, so...”

Lin Jie stopped for a moment before he continued, “You, the ones that have always been representing China to battle, would you be on the same starting line as us? Of course, that’s impossible! Therefore, according to my guess, you are in a totally different land from ours, the resources are much richer, and monsters are much stronger. However, there were limitations too—that is, you are unable to enter the land of The New Age because that is where normal players are.

“What a pity. In the end, The New Age is not a normal game. The land you people are in may be a place the nation had obtained for you, and it must be powerful. However, you will lose some things, such as the Broken Blade in my hands, there is definitely no such thing in the place you people are in. Hungry Tiger informed you about me having the Broken Blade, so you people risked breaking the rules and teleported here. However, the extent of one’s greed is limitless. Maybe your original aim was just my Broken Blade, but after understanding, you people want to obtain the whole land to earn economic benefits for you.

“Who would have thought that I would enter the Spider Den, this overly covert map, and would encounter you people. Now it seems that something must have happened to the lot of you while being teleported. At the very least you people are unable to live in the form of players, so in other words... Once killed, you are unable to revive.”

!!!

“Who-who are you? Why do you such a comprehensive understanding?” asked Falcon loudly as he pointed Lin Jie in astonishment. A horrified expression could finally be seen on Falcon’s face.

“I guessed.” Lin Jie shrugged. “I think I am quite knowledgeable about the game rules, then I linked it with your behaviors, and I took a guess. Looks like my guess is not far from the truth.”

Falcon was unable to calm down. ‘Just relying on guessing, Lone Wolf was able to deduce this much information? Just how deep are this youngster’s thoughts?’ His voice slightly trembled as he said, “So? What do you want to do?”

“To cooperate, I always encourage cooperation. People come together with benefits, as long as their interests align, all enemies can become friends. However, I need you to recognize a fact, now I have the absolute initiative. If I wanted to, you would have already been dead. It’s just that I value the information you have, so I kept you alive,” said Lin Jie calmly, “Now, answer my questions.”

Falcon took a deep breath. “You’re right. The me now is the same as an NPC. Once I die, I will not revive. However, I want to ask, what’s the aim of our cooperation?”

“You have no qualifications to ask,” said Lin Jie.

“You!” Falcon’s face turned cold, but he forced himself to calm down. “Ask away.”

“Firstly, how did you come here?”

“Through the teleportation circle, your guess is very accurate. The resources in the land we were in are extremely rich. Raw materials like Time Sand are abundant, and currently, The New Age is far from having developed, so the space barrier is weak. Therefore, as long as Hungry Tiger was here to be to connect us by providing the coordinates, we could be teleported here.”

“Oh? Then can you send more people here using the same method?” Lin Jie raised his brows.

“How could it be that simple? Doing such a thing was already breaking the rules. The few of us were only substitute members, our ability was weaker so we could be teleported here. Our powerful members are completely suppressed by the system. Also, because you destroyed the teleportation circle, all the high-level materials and equipment have all disappeared. Unless we find an immense amount of teleportation circle materials in this land, which lacks resources, or else...” Falcon smiled bitterly.

Lin Jie, on the other hand, heaved a sigh of relief as since they could not continue sending people over, the people already here could be dealt with! He continued asking, “How many came?”

“Seven.”

“Can you contact them?”

“No, we are now NPC characters and commoners. We are unable to release missions or use the communication function.

“Very good, the last question. Is your aim for coming here to recruit me, or were you planning to forcibly kill me and snatch the Broken Blade?” asked Lin Jie with a meaningful smile.

Falcon was stunned, how could he answer that question?

If he answered, “Yes, that’s right we are here to kill you”, most likely, he would immediately be killed, right?

However, if he replied, “We are here to recruit you”, wouldn’t that sound too fake? Did recruiting one person need so many people?

“Hmph! Truthfully, our aim for coming here was to firstly kill you and obtain the Brotherhood. Secondly, to destroy the Brotherhood and help an organization, which belongs to us, develop. You should also know this organization, it’s the Xuanyuan Alliance. Their strength in the real world is extremely powerful, and it’s the best collaboration partner.” Falcon thought and added, “However, if you work with us now, then we can destroy the Xuanyuan Alliance instead.”

Lin Jie smiled sarcastically with an emotionless expression on his face. “How many top-tier techniques did you grasp?”

“Four.”

“What about the others?”

“About the same as me since we are all substitutes, to have qualifications to stay there, everyone grasped at least over three techniques.”

Lin Jie nodded and thought, ‘As expected... three top-tier techniques was the basic condition to joining? No wonder so many experts had disappeared from The New Age three years from now. They were all recruited.’

“Lone Wolf, I have already told you everything you want to know. Now, you can let me go,” said Falcon with a frown as he shook the chains on him.

“That’s right, you have already told me everything I want to know. Our cooperation ends here,” said Lin Jie calmly as his face revealed a cruel smile. “It’s good being an NPC! According to the system’s rules, after killing an NPC, there would be chances to obtain the items, equipment, and materials the NPC has. There might even be the possibility of learning the skills, which the NPC practiced year in, year out, just like the City of Light’s Corporal, who learned Sun Swordsmanship... A summary in one sentence: NPCs are moving treasures!”
