Chapter 10  : Chapter 10  : A Shocking Meteor! Lin Qingyu found Ling Yi to be a fascinating guy. His knowledge of God’s Path was lacking, and he didn’t seem to be physically trained either.

He was like a fish out of water—someone who never thought he would become a player one day.

He was not like any other person she had ever met before. They always prepared themselves for this world.

Staring curiously at the guy, who appeared to be around the same age as her, she pursed her thin cherry lips and asked, “You knew about our city’s ‘Genius Plan’, right?”

“I know.”

“Then you better hurry up and kill as many Grassland Wolves as possible before they recover. Otherwise, you wouldn’t be qualified for a spot in ‘Genius Plan’.”

Ling Yi subconsciously raised his eyebrow, and a strange expression flashed across his face, but it was gone before Lin Qingyu could even decipher what that meant.

“What’s your level?” He asked.

“Me?” Lin Qingyu crossed her arms and smiled confidently, “Heh, I’m already Level 2, 15 exp!” She proudly said. Then she turned to him, “How about you?”

“I’m only a few exp higher than you.”

“Higher than me? Just a few?” Lin Qingyu frowned slightly at his vague words. She sized him up and down with suspicion evident in her gaze.

It was pretty apparent that he was hiding something.

However, she would have to grill him with more questions later as she could see the battle had already started in the distance.

Giving the boy one last curious look, she nimbly leaped forward to join the fight.

In the blink of an eye, she had already covered more than ten meters.

“She’s quite fast, huh...” Ling Yi muttered softly as he watched her silhouette getting smaller and smaller.

He looked past the players fighting the grassland wolves and stared at the five-meter tall Wolf King.

The creature didn’t move, still standing arrogantly as it watched over the fight. The wind played with its silver-blue fur, and when the wind pushed it upwards, the Wolf King looked like it was made of blue fire.

He was like a marshal in the army, sitting still in the middle of his troops, silently analyzing them.

And just like a marshal, the huge wolf only gave the players a great deal of pressure by just standing there and glaring at them.

But of course, Ling Yi didn’t feel any of it.

“Since you don’t want to move, I’ll use my skill.” A smile slowly crept to his face, “I hope you don’t dodge.”

Ling Yi looked at the time.

[Remaining time from descent: 36 minutes]

He raised his hand and cast [Starfall] at the Wolf King’s location.

A massive meteor with a diameter of 35 meters suddenly appeared in the sky the next moment!

...

After killing a level 2 Grassland Wolf, Luo Yao took a step back and left the battlefield.

[Congratulations! You have accumulated enough experience. You have been automatically upgraded to Level 3!]

“I’m finally Level 3.” She smiled, but before she could revel in her joy, the girl felt an intense pain in her leg.

Her slender brows furrowed slightly.

Looking down, she saw a few three to four-centimeter-long gashes on her previously flawless white calf, and blood was flowing out from the wound.

“Tsk....” She gritted her teeth, frowning deeper.

Then she heard a voice in her mind, “Let’s go back. There’s no point in staying here any longer.”

“The Grassland Wolves’ stamina is quickly recovering. If we don’t leave now, it’ll be too late.”

Deep in Luo Yao’s body, a soul was residing within her.

That soul’s name was Qin Mengya. She was once the number one genius among the younger generation in the land of Shenxia.

Half a month ago, she died in a sudden raid.

The enemy had even burned her body to prevent her from being resurrected to her next life. But what the enemy had overlooked, Qin Mengya had an S-grade item in her possession. And due to its effect, her soul managed to escape and chose to live on in Luo Yao’s body, who was still an ordinary person at the time.

Only when Luo Yao reached the same level as Qin Mengya before she died, level 72, would she be able to revive fully.

That was why, in order to revive her once more, she would spare all of her efforts into supporting and helping this girl to level up.

“... Alright, then.” Luo Yao replied in her heart.

There was an unmistakable sense of regret in her tone.

If the Wolf King hadn’t appeared, she would have been able to gain more experience points from the rest of the Grassland Wolves...

Just as Luo Yao was about to make her way back to the campsite, an increasingly loud rumbling sound suddenly came from the sky.

From the loud rumble, it sounded like some kind of giant object was falling at high speed.

“What the…?” Luo Yao raised her head in confusion and immediately saw the massive burning star rapidly heading down.

Every player and wolves nearby also noticed this phenomenon and were shocked by the increasingly loud and terrifying sound. They couldn’t help but look up at the sky.

“F*ck! What is that? A meteor?”

“The golden flames and the red core… Isn’t that the one that appeared two hours ago?! But why is it bigger than before?!”

“Is this someone’s skill? This is just too ridiculous!”

“No way! How could a player reach this level in just a short time? Even if it’s a skill with a flaw, this is just too much!”

The players all exclaimed in disbelief.

Anyone would know that the attack range of most skills was equal to their attribute stats.

For example, with 10 MP, the player could easily create a fireball with a one-meter diameter.

So with 100 MP, a player could easily create a fireball with a diameter of 10 meters!

The rapidly falling meteor with a diameter of 35 meters caused many people to wonder if the user has 350 MP.

But to have that many MP, the player must have reached level 70 to receive that many attribute points!

In other words, the meteor in front of her was equivalent to a single attack from a level 70 player with full Mana growth!

How could this not be shocking?

Even in the outside world, a level 70 player was enough to be called a strong player in a city!

“This...”

Luo Yao was dumbfounded as she watched the mysterious meteor fall. She finally reacted when the latter hit the plains and exploded with a shocking shock wave.

“Is this an attack from a newbie player?”

The scorching golden flames spread out in all directions like a storm, evaporating all living things in the core attack zone.

An invisible wave of heat rushed toward the players around her as if they were being roasted in a furnace.

The sun was high in the sky, and the sunlight was strong. The surrounding area’s temperature rose significantly after being swept by the flames.

The air became even hotter!

Luo Yao had already forgotten about the pain in her leg. She felt as if her entire world was shaking.

Fortunately, she was determined and quickly recovered from the shock.

“No matter how strong I am, there will always be someone else who is stronger than me. I just need to improve myself.” She consoled herself, but she knew it didn’t completely erase the disappointment in her heart.

After all, who wouldn’t be curious about how it was done?

Who wouldn’t want to be born to have such strong combat power?

If everyone could do that, then her current efforts would be a joke.

However, Qin Mengya comforted her very quickly. “This is indeed shocking...” In fact, if Qin Mengya had not seen it with her own eyes, she would not have believed such an absurd phenomenon. “However, you don’t have to overthink about it, Luo Yao. That’s definitely an extremely rare case. We don’t need to change our growth plan because of one person.”

“As long as you grow according to our plan, you will become the strongest person in this area. Whether it be sooner or later.”
