Becoming Invincible in the Game-Invaded World

Chapter 15

On Blue Planet, in the year 2150, it could almost be said to be the era of using real names to surf the Internet.

The Internet was also not a lawless place.

Thus, many people in Lin Chen’s class knew that his game ID was Forest Dawn.

Therefore, the news that Lin Chen continued to invest in the game quickly spread throughout the class group chat.

In fact, when Lin Chen called the class director to ask for leave, the class director said to him earnestly, “Lin Chen, although your parents are no longer around, you can’t mess around! Why did I hear that you mortgaged your house and want to play New World? Everyone is deleting their accounts, and the game is about to stop operating. Listen to the teacher’s advice and stop your losses in time!”

Out of goodwill, the class director even advised Lin Chen.

Most of his classmates were mocking him.

Something about his brain being damaged or something.

The matter of Lin Chen borrowing money from Brother Tiger was also exposed by Ye Tenglong.

These things were all within Lin Chen’s expectations.

Previously, when he borrowed money from Brother Tiger, Lin Chen had already thought that with Ye Tenglong’s character of wanting to see the world in chaos and wanting to harm others without benefiting himself, he would definitely take the opportunity to attack him.

Lin Chen just decided to ignore him.

As for the ridicule in the class group chat, out of sight, out of mind.

Moreover, Lin Chen had also seen that those who mocked or ridiculed him had all deleted their accounts. When the game officially stopped and the monsters began to invade the world, it would be their doomsday!

Lin Chen would not remind them of anything. He was not that kind-hearted.

We’ll see how these people cry later!

After the talk with Bai Shuyi, she went back to her room to play games.

Lin Chen also went online.

Liu Mengyao was already waiting in the game. When Lin Chen came up, he saw her talking to Seven, Xiao Mei, and Xiao Li. Lin Chen sent them away and said to Liu Mengyao, “Let’s go to the warehouse first and sort out the materials for the crafted equipment. Then we’ll look for Laughing Blade to help forge it. Once it’s done, we’ll go to the Southern Heavenly Gate Instance Dungeon!”

“Mm!” Liu Mengyao nodded. However, she asked, “Why did you go to Laughing Blade? You recruited so many NPCs. Can’t you recruit a Refiner NPC too?”

That made sense!

Lin Chen’s eyes lit up. Only then did he realize that in the game, there were many NPCs with functional classes that could be recruited. Hence, he continued to grind in the recruitment hall.

The recruitment of these functional NPCs was actually very simple.

There was no need to look at their combat strength.

It only depended on the proficiency level.

Among them, there were many NPCs with the title of Master. It could be said that they were ready for use.

[Duan Zhutian, Mountain Spirit Race, Forging Level: Master, Proficiency: 200,000, Recruitment Price: 400 million gold coins!]

[Yao Linglong, Elf Race, Alchemy Level: Master, Proficiency: 300,000, Recruitment Price: 400 million gold coins!]

[Kuishan, Earth Spirit, Array Level: Master, Proficiency: 100,000, Recruitment Price: 500 million gold coins!]

[Lin Qiaoqiao, Human, Sewing Level: Master, Proficiency: 300,000, Recruitment Price: 400 million gold coins!]

Good lord, a master was indeed a master.

From the price list, even the cheapest master was worth 400 million gold coins.

Among them, array masters still needed 500 million!

It was no wonder that so many players liked to join those large guilds, especially guilds with main cities and a Master overseeing them. They could especially attract players to join them. Just these Master-level NPCs alone were tempting enough.

“Buy it!”

Lin Chen gritted his teeth and bought them all!

He continued to bet that when the game invaded the real world in the future, players’ houses, territories, and cities could be inherited. Then, these NPCs could also be inherited!

If that was the case, then Lin Chen would become even more powerful in the future.

First of all, not only did he have his own city, but he also had the combat strength of three Glory Teams and the help of four SS-level NPCs. In the future, there would be four sub-profession masters in Lin Chen’s Sky Moon City!

After the game invaded the world, although it brought about a destructive disaster, with the huge number of humans on the Blue Planet, they should not be completely wiped out. There were even some people who retained the strength in the game. People would definitely be able to gather again.

At that time, people would continue to live.

They could even have children.

And they should adapt to the new world.

Adults worked hard to learn skills to survive, while newborns leveled up from scratch…

In that case, would they need equipment in the future?

With the existence of these four masters, Lin Chen’s Sky Moon City would definitely be a city that humans relied on to survive in the future.

Moreover, Lin Chen had a large amount of resources in reserve!

Ordinary players’ warehouses were only so big, but the City Lord’s warehouse could be infinitely large. Lin Chen kept expanding it, and now, his warehouse had also received a steady stream of various tools and materials from Zhang Chunlin.

There were a hundred Eternal Crystals inside!

In the game, these 100 Eternal Crystals were a huge fortune.

If it was the previous New World, these Eternal Crystals would be worth a billion!

Lin Chen took out 12 Eternal Crystals and gave half to Liu Mengyao. Then, he took out a bag of crafting materials. He calculated that he could make a total of 200 sets of Level 100 crafted equipment, specifically a cape and a belt.

Production took time.

Even if a master blacksmith and tailor worked together, it would still take half an hour.

Lin Chen and Liu Mengyao went to strengthen their equipment.

All four sets were equipped with Eternal Crystals.

Then, it continued to strengthen.

In any case, the equipment would not be damaged. He could just close his eyes and strengthen it.

[Congratulations to player Forest Dawn for being blessed by the Goddess of Luck. Equipment Mage’s Divine Hurricane Pendant has been successfully enhanced to +16!]

[Congratulations to player Forest Dawn for being blessed by the Goddess of Luck. Equipment Mage’s Divine Hurricane Armor has been successfully strengthened to +16!]

[Congratulations to player Forest Dawn for being blessed by the Goddess of Luck. You have successfully strengthened the Mage’s Divine Hurricane Boots to +16!]

[Congratulations to player Forest Dawn for being blessed by the Goddess of Luck. Equipment Mage’s Divine Hurricane Staff has been successfully enhanced to +16!]

[…]

A series of equipment strengthened messages appeared on the public chat.

However, this time, no one in the world channel paid attention to Lin Chen’s madness.

Because they were even crazier!

The difference was that Lin Chen was still investing crazily. These players were selling equipment and materials crazily. There were also various account just for selling. Just as Lin Chen had expected, many people were also collecting top-grade equipment in the World Channel.

“I’m not short of money. Sell me the top-grade equipment. I’ll melt the equipment on the live broadcast!”

“It’s about to stop service, what’s the point of playing! Come, come, come, selling all kinds of equipment and materials…”

“…”

Many streamers or media creators took this opportunity to come to the game to collect equipment and materials before starting a live broadcast or filming a video. This game was about to die anyway, but it was still so popular. If they didn’t take advantage of this time, when would they?

Under such a crazy situation, Lin Chen and Liu Mengyao had strengthened four +18 equipment, but it was very easy for others to ignore them.

That was because the equipment notifications for +18 kept scrolling. Many people who were livestreaming or filming videos did not use the Eternal Crystal. In any case, their gimmick was to melt the equipment. It did not matter if the enhancement failed!

“These people wanting attention really have no morals. Every piece of equipment they waste now might be of great help to humans in the future!” Lin Chen was furious.

However, he did not have a better idea… This was the reason why Lin Chen wanted to snatch two sets of top-grade equipment yesterday.

Lin Chen could only order Zhang Chunlin to use his connections to gather more materials and equipment.

He wanted as much as he could get!

Half an hour later, it was finally time for Duan Zhutian and Lin Qiaoqiao to deliver the goods.

Two hundred sets of crafted items and four hundred pieces of equipment.

The crafting fee was a total of four million gold coins!

It was not cheap.

Moreover, these crafted equipment were all unappraised!

At this moment, he needed appraisal talismans.

Zhang Chunlin sent over 10,000 top-grade appraisal talismans to Lin Chen.

But it might not be enough.

It was very difficult to get top-grade crafted equipment in New World. Out of 10,000 pieces of equipment, only one piece of nine-star equipment could be found. Moreover, these 10,000 pieces of equipment had to be appraised with top-grade talismans.

The equipment in this game would have the effect of shining stars according to the quality.

Normal-grade equipment was one or two stars.

Then 3-4 excellent, 5-6 outstanding, and 7-8 perfect.

Equipment above nine stars would have different suffixes: Legendary, Epic, Mythical!

Among them, Mythical was the best.

Lin Chen was not expecting that these 200 sets of crafted items could produce Mythical equipment.

The key was that it also required equipment attributes that were compatible with his class. This was very difficult.

Even if the two NPCs who made the equipment were both Masters, the probability was still very low.

However, Zhang Chunlin had yet to receive any top-grade crafted equipment suitable for him, so he could only make it. Lin Chen paid another fee, and this time, he asked Duan Zhutian and Lin Qiaoqiao to make a thousand sets of crafted equipment.

Then, Lin Chen and Liu Mengyao continued to appraise the equipment. As beams of light flashed on the equipment, Lin Chen had already finished crafting.

Liu Mengyao was the same, but she couldn’t help but comment, “Lin Chen, I have 200 pieces here, and many of them are five-star. This is a top-grade appraisal talisman! The probability of this game giving you well crafted equipment is too low!”

“It’s like this in New World, but there should be some seven-star and eight-star equipment, right? I have a cape here that suits you. It’s eight-star equipment that can be used.”

As Lin Chen spoke, he handed the equipment to Liu Mengyao.

[Blessing of the Moon Goddess]

[Quality: Perfect]

[Level: 100]

[Class: Any]

[Spirit +500]

[Constitution+300]

[Physical and Magic Damage Reduction +12%]

[Forger: Forest Dawn]

There were also signatures for crafted equipment.

Although it was an NPC forging, the person who gave the money and materials was Lin Chen. The last person appraise it was also Lin Chen. Naturally, it was Lin Chen’s game ID.

Out of 400 pieces of equipment, there was only this one that could be used.
