Terra Nova Online: Rise of The Strongest Player

Chapter 399: Another Global Announcement

( Eren’s POV )

Eren could not believe what he had just witnessed when Leo killed a level 371 High Demons General.

Although he did not do it on his own, and was assisted by the very powerful man, Leo did still manage to take off the Demon General’s head with one clean strike and this phenomenon rocked Eren to his core.

‘Is this the power of the Top Player? Are all rankers really this powerful? Or is The Boss simply on another level?’ Eren wondered, as he watched the third person feed with his jaws agape.

Everything from his fighting skills, to his in-game abilities was top notch.

Eren had not even heard of such abilities existing which allowed one to create countless doppelgangers of themselves, however, as he witnessed it in action, he realized just how wide the gap was between himself and the top player.

‘Is this the end for me? Am I destined to be captured by humans and drop down to level 0?’ Eren wondered to himself, as he softly closed his eyes.

Meanwhile, Leo and Ben only increased their gap versus the pursuing demons, as once they entered the forest area versus the clearing where the demon camp was set-up, the demons found it very difficult to keep up with the nimble movement of the Assassin’s.

While Leo and Ben effortlessly bounced off thin tree branches, the pursuing demons could not do the same.

If they tried to climb on a branch the branch cracked under their weight and caused them to fall face first, whereas if they did not climb the branch, then they found it impossible to chase Leo and Ben in a straight line, which made them lose speed and time.

In the dense forest, their larger and heavier build played against them, as after just 5 minutes of chasing the duo, the gap between them and Ben and Leo became so large that the demons no longer had them in their sights.

“We have lost all sight of the humans…. What should we do now?” A demon asked, as his superior simply shrugged his shoulders in confusion, as even he had no answers to this question.

“What can we do? We must return to Count Vaugn and report the situation….. The Demon Whisperer has fallen into enemy hands–” The high demon said, as the demons called off the chase and returned back to the camp to regroup from this strategic defeat.

( Meanwhile Leo )

Leo was almost ready to celebrate when he noticed that the demons were not longer pursuing him and Ben, however, his mood was instantly ruined when a system screen flashed before him.

[ Congratulations! It is detected that the player is no longer in critical danger, and hence the rewards from the previous fight are being distributed ]

At first, Leo was overjoyed; he had killed a total of 6 demons that were level 250+, a dozen common demons between level 100-200 and one demon general level 371 during this mission to kidnap the Demon Whisperer.

Combined it rewarded him with a few hundred gold coins, and enough exp to gain +18 levels, which brought his real level total from 282 to 300, once again extending his lead at the top of the leveling boards.

‘Level 300 let’s go!’ Leo thought to himself in joy, as while the 9743 ranked player was still only level 200, he was already miles ahead of the curve hitting level 300 already.

However, his happiness did not last for too long, as a second system notification soon ruined his mood.

[ System Notification :- It has been detected that player ‘TheBoss’ has managed to kill ‘High Demon Verium’ , a notorious criminal with an imperial bounty of over 100,000 gold coins over his head, becoming the first player to kill a wanted enemy demon general.

Do you wish to issue a global announcement for the same?

Yes

No

.

It is detected that the host possesses the ‘Actor’ class and cannot decline a global announcement, hence issuing a global announcement for the same….]

[ Global Announcement :- Player ‘TheBoss’ has killed Demon General Verium, and has become the first player in the world of Terra Nova to kill one of the 720 Demon Bosses.

Please congratulate him for the same ]

“NOOOOOO—” Leo shouted loudly, startling Ben who was running ahead of him, as to what was wrong.

If there was one thing that Leo absolutely hated, it was global announcements that brought attention to his in-game activities, however, every few months he ended up on the announcement board anyways.

[ System Notification :- Congratulations to player ‘TheBoss’ for killing one of the 720 Demon Bosses in the world.

You have gained +1200 fame

+500 MP

+System Auction Ticket ]

Apart from the useless global announcement, Leo also got some benefits for killing one of the 720 Demon Bosses, which included +500 MP points which Leo was most thankful for.

While it did not eliminate the pain of making headlines yet again, it did help alleviate it to a certain extent, as Leo hung his head down in shame and kept running behind Ben.

“What? Do you get hallucinatory Fits or something boy? What are you randomly screaming for?” Ben asked Leo, however, Leo chose not to respond to this question.

Ben could probably never understand the pain he was feeling at this moment, as he knew that by now the entire global forums would probably already be abuzz discussing the life of ‘TheBoss’.

Leo knew that there were many vain players in the world, who would probably relish this chance to show-off, however, he was not one of them.

While he enjoyed getting stronger, he preferred doing it silently, as showing off to the masses was not his style.

However, unfortunately, his class never let him be low-key, as whatever he did always ended up being broadcast to the world in the end.
