God-level Hero-Chapter 954 - 899: How a Smurf Can Stand Out

Chapter 954: Chapter 899: How a Smurf Can Stand Out
Da Fei arrived at the computer room on the second floor and was instantly amazed. The entire room filled with helmet sofas was one thing, but all the walls were covered with large LCD screens. Is this the US Army’s Star Wars Command Center?
Then, upon seeing the content on the big screens, Da Fei was even more shocked. This is Divine Punishment City, Saint Paul City, and several other cities under comprehensive surveillance. Is this the super security monitoring system? Even Bloodrose is like this; what about the three major guilds? This means that each time I come to Saint Paul City, I’m immediately monitored by them. So, is my NPC identity entering and exiting Divine Punishment City being monitored?
Just then, a beautiful woman stepped forward and smiled, "I apologize; I was on duty and couldn’t come down to greet earlier. I’m Bloodrose Holy Spear, just call me Sister Ann. The three new members can sit here and start up."
Da Fei and the other two quickly replied, "No need to be so courteous, Sister Ann!"
Da Fei sat comfortably on the sofa and put the helmet on, a waft of perfume fragrance hit him. Holy crap, whose helmet is this? It’s worlds apart from my helmet full of sweat! Better not stink up this lady’s helmet.
Entering the game login interface, Da Fei was stunned for a while before suddenly realizing he forgot Little Li’s account passwords!
That’s right, as a netizen, you need to have security awareness, which means you shouldn’t use the same account and password across all forums and websites. Many netizens use the same account everywhere for the convenience of memory, which provides opportunities for certain cyber criminals. They hack into smaller sites with weaker security, or even create phishing sites to obtain database user information, then use the obtained info to test logins on major sites, often resulting in success.
This is why some players are puzzled: my computer has strict antivirus, I haven’t visited shady sites or used add-ons, I didn’t do anything, yet how could my game account get stolen? This is how! But the downside is not logging in for a while makes you forget.
Da Fei was stunned for a while, and ultimately coughed awkwardly, "Uh, Little Fang, I forgot my account!"
Immediately, the surrounding Bloodrose beauties burst into laughter: "Brother Junxiang, you are too careless; how can you forget your own account? It’s worth millions!"
Holy crap! Was hoping to boost my reputation through gaming, but ended up making a fool of myself here! No way, I must redeem myself in the game now!
Da Fei awkwardly said, "I’ve been too busy lately."
Bloodrose Holy Spear dispersed the group of beauties: "Everyone get back to your places!"
The beauties laughed: "Alright, alright, everyone quickly close your eyes and ears, Little Li is handing over an account worth millions!"
Holy crap! Laughing about what, or I’ll spank you!
Of course, Little Li wouldn’t recite the password in such a public place, but logged in with the helmet and handed it to big brother. Although professional guilds indeed have a tradition of letting teammates take turns leveling up accounts, professional guilds and members have contracts, and members’ accounts are the guild’s properties. Little Li and these three evidently don’t have such contracts, so these three accounts are private property.
Now, Da Fei entered the game, and the familiar Divine Punishment City scenario came to life. Da Fei checked the long-missed Junxiang’s attribute information. Last time he played, it wasn’t even level 10, now it’s already level 49:
──Junxiang:

...
Looking at Junxiang’s attributes and equipment, Da Fei was stunned for a long time without regaining his composure. Da Fei now only feels weak, unfamiliar, unadapted, and frustrated! Is this really a character worth millions? Or is it that Little Li and the others are so busy dual-wielding AFK that they couldn’t manage it properly?
Da Fei opened the achievements tab, and indeed this instance had quite a lot of achievements, with rewards adding up to 660 points of Command Power, which was commendable—not a bad yield for AFK farming in instances. This account’s level should be slightly stronger than the average player, right? The problem is, I’m used to crushing with a high-end character full of Divine Artifacts, how can I stand out with something so weak? Double special abilities, so what? I don’t even have troops!
Just then, a deafening roar of beasts came from the sky. Da Fei looked up to see a swarm of Flying Dragon Knights, among which a particularly large dragon was ridden by an extraordinarily robust Blood Armor Knight hero. It was none other than an old acquaintance from the past—the hero riding the volcanic flying dragon, some Tashima guy, the superior of the three coachmen!
Damn it! Even my main character avoided him back then, so am I supposed to reclaim my place with this weak little character now?
Da Fei could only place his hopes on the mysterious hero Ouling. Da Fei opened his attributes: Level 35, basically no progress; it was clear he’d been sleeping for over a month AFK without even getting any updates. But it’s alright, as long as he has some Divine Descent-like Divine Artifacts, he still can fight.
At that moment, garrison officer Ror approached guild leader Little Fang, Little Li, Junxiang, and the group, looking serious: "Warriors, the Demons are unwilling to accept the failure of the last great battle and appear to be making a comeback. The Hell Siege Machine we captured is the biggest obstacle for them, and it’s very likely that the Demons will stop at nothing to break into our barrier and destroy the Siege Machine. We must do everything in our power to defend the Siege Machine. Please make every effort to repel the adversaries!"
—System Prompt: Garrison Officer Ror has issued you the battlefield task "Repel the Threat of Demon Airborne Forces"!
For a moment, when the workshop saw the big screen’s progress, Bloodrose Studio was astonished: "Does NPC power alone not suffice? Do we really need our guild players to assist?"
"Exactly, even if Da Fei gave our guild ten angels, this force doesn’t play a decisive role; what can players do to help?"
Upon hearing the female workshop members discussing, Da Fei’s brow furrowed, agreeing they made a valid point. NPCs issue tasks based on players’ reputation and strength, so assigning such a task to my main account wouldn’t be surprising, but given it to a bunch of newbies doesn’t seem reliable. Ouling? It’s possible, but without understanding his background, it’s unreliable.
Or perhaps the system thinks that the Siege Machine is too much of an eyesore to the game’s progress, so regardless of casualties, it must be dismantled? Is this a mission where we’re destined to lose but still earn rewards? Damn, that’s frustrating!
As thoughts raced, the guild leader asked, "Officer, couldn’t we just remove the Siege Machine right away?"
Ror chuckled, baffled: "Removing it wouldn’t differ from letting the enemy destroy it. The enemy’s goal is to render our Siege Machine useless. If we don’t remove it, we can lure the enemy into fiercely attacking it and cause them massive damage while at it."
Damn! This is going to be a fierce battle! It’s likely the Siege Machine won’t last!
Next, the guild leader continued, "Will Da Fei’s reserve forces in the Divine Punishment City participate in the battle?"
Ror affirmed seriously: "Certainly, Deputy City Lord Lady Elda of Divine Punishment City is here; she will definitely join the fight, as everyone must do their utmost."
"I see!" In that instant, the ladies at Bloodrose Studio realized: "So, our role as players is essentially to assist and catch thieves opportunistically."
Little Fang laughed and said, "Leader, you can lead our forces alone; we almost don’t serve any purpose, do we?"
The leader chuckled: "Fine, then everyone can just be spectators. Brother Junxiang is entering this scenario for the first time; you can show him around and quickly familiarize him with the place."
"Got it."
Da Fei was deeply troubled! While I love being a spectator, how can I bear to let the Siege Machine, earned through painstaking effort, go down without acting? Besides, just being a spectator won’t earn the admiration and favor of beautiful women!
In the midst of anxiety, Little Fang laughed and said, "Big brother, let me introduce this place. It’s a very high-end scenario; currently, only the top player Da Fei and a few from our guild have entered this place. Brother’s account can access here thanks to Brother’s Vice Hero Ouling, who is from a fallen noble’s lineage. It’s what he said when he helped Brother acquire a pass for Divine Punishment City, and beyond that, there’s no further introduction. No matter how you ask him, he won’t elaborate."
Da Fei immediately asked, "Ouling, you managed to handle a Beastman Village; surely you can deal with these hordes of Flying Dragon Knights, right?"
Ouling, with a sideways glance, irritably replied, "Really think I’m a god? You and I are nobodies here. Please recognize your abilities and position!"
Da Fei was taken aback! Damn, such harsh words, obviously there’s a lack of friendliness, indeed the side effect of too much AFK farming?
Then the guild leader was deploying forces at the mountain top with the Siege Machine, while Little Li continued working at the pharmacy. Da Fei was led around by Little Fang, uttering ’oh’ and ’ah’ in understanding, yet inwardly troubled and anxious. Could it be, that my skill is non-existent, merely relying on luck at the beginning to snowball all the way?
The only thing Da Fei can’t accept no matter what is the notion that his double special abilities on the sub-account are truly something great; even if it’s a weak little account, it still has its way to break through! So, where’s the solution? (To be continued. If you enjoy this work, feel free to vote for recommendation tickets and monthly ballots on Qidian (qidian.com). Your support is my greatest motivation.
