Standing like a madman, he saw them fall like wheat that was harvested.
"YOU!"
The warrior, Derby, shouted as he tried to punch Zypher a few times.
But, all he got was a smashing that his body can not even comprehend.
[Transcension ending in 10 seconds.]
With that, Zypher did not think twice.
Taking the spear, he ran out of the jungle as fast as he can.
Derby, who saw this, felt the indignation and the humiliation, yet, instead of backing down, he took a drastic measure.
"Aura Release!"
Release, is a universal skill that players get when they reach Level 15.
It is skill that raises up the stats, making them invincible for a few seconds.
The only downside is, it empties the Stamina and Energy bars of a player, which means it's a debuff after if you didn't achieve what you wanted to do.
But, Derby risked it all.
Because he has a hidden Ability that everyone despises: Plunder.
Items, in Project: Zerø, drops upon death, but it is a random item everytime.
So, when players kill other players, the loot they get is random.
But Derby can bypass that.
Hidden Ability: Plunder. It lets you chooses something on the opponent's inventory and take one thing upon their death.
And because he saw Zypher take something shiny, he wants to get that said shiny thing.
He ran as fast as he could, and saw the silhouette of Zypher.
With a maniac smile on his face, he jumped towards Zypher, only to see a spear flying, intercepting him.
"Eagle Stomp!"
Using a skill, he dodged the incoming spear and dove headfirst towards Zypher.
But what he saw was not fear.
"Barisada."
Zypher said as he pulled out a sword from his inventory.
The sword, is a slender sword that as a guard blade near the guard that looks like a dagger.
The blade two edges, and it is covered with blue fire.
[Transcension ending in 3 seconds.]
"Onyx Storm."
Suddenly, air drifted as if a black storm engulfed the surroundings.
Tornadoes and typhoons were summoned, instilling a deep fear in Derby.
As he lost sight of his enemy, Zypher then used this chance to deliver the final blow.
"Barisada - 3rd Movement: Midrib."
Suddenly, everything stopped.
The storm, the noise, and even Derby.
A single line of fire can be seen, from heaven up to the place Zypher is standing.
[Transcension ended. Reverting back to the original.]
With that, Zypher began to convulse as he dropped down.
Derby, who was sliced in one go, was nowhere to be seen.
[Stat Debuff - 99%.]
Rolling through the mud, he saw the notification.
[Warning: Pain Receptor is at max, player needs to rest.]
"Yeah, yeah, I hear you."
He said as he took out a small stone on his hand.
"Teleport."
He said as he suddenly vanished from the place.
He was then sent to Ruintown, and there, in his room in an inn.
After taking ten scrolls from ten different places, he rented a place in here.
Fortunately, they give out one-use teleportation stone, and he used it as soon as he got the chance.
Using it while Derby is hot on his tail doesn't stop him from making new problems for him.
BANG!
His body hit the bed, but Grand Heal began acting again, healing him, but his Health Points were stuck in 1.
"HA.."
His body, weak from the fight, was still experiencing the pain, but the joy in his heart is still there.
He can play the game, and get his revenge.
When he got his third card, he got new things from Mr. Celess.
The Clear Chain, now has the rewards, such as how many cards he can draw, and Chain Links he can get.
There were no changes on the other chains, as he didn't get the four symbol ones.
"...HAHAHAHAHAHAHA."
Laughing out loud, he covered his eyes as mania started seeping into him.
Standing up, he opened his inventory to see what is inside.
Barisada, which he used, is not there, but the thing he wants now is the reward he took last time.
[Chain Link.]
- a chain used for the other chains. Each one has a different evolution path, so be careful how you use it.
In short, it was to upgrade the chains he has.
And now, he only has one chain to upgrade.
"Use it on the White Chain."
[Using...]
Suddenly, the White Chains glowed in power.
[White Chain - Transcension.]
- Transcends the player to his past life account for 20 seconds. Cooldown: 24 Hours. Level Restriction: Level 50. Stat Debuff after using - 1 Hour.
Past Life Account.
It means, he can use his items, skills and even everything from his past life, inside twenty seconds every day.
The upgrade is the five second addiotion to it, and it also added five the last time he picked the four symbol card.
That means, from the start, he only had ten seconds to work with, but now, he doubled it already.
20 seconds can do a lot of things, and Zypher won't miss these.
Plus, he is basically a god if he fought players under level 50.
Taking these into consideration, Zypher looked at the Stat Debuff. He still got almost thirty minutes.
Now, he must do what he needs to do.
Although his past life account is OP, his present life account is trash and filled with restrictions.
So, he took some things to level up the grounds between him and the players around him.
He opened his inventory, and there, he saw the fifteen scrolls he bought, one gold each, and even took so much time to find each and every store.
"This is enough for now."
He said as he took one out.
[Mage Basic Skill: Mana Bullet.]
He looked at the scroll with the scribbles and magic circle.
[Learn Mana Bullet?]
Zypher smiled as he took all fifteen, and opened it.
He stacked them upon each other, and smiled.
He put his hand on top of them, and suddenly, a notification popped up.
"I was waiting for you."
