At this moment, several big shots from the Jianghai City government were gathered together.
Some of them usually played games in their spare time.
Now, they were quite interested in this Abandoned Gods Game.
Of course...
As officials of the Great Xia Nation, their most important task right now was to maintain stability!
After hearing Wang Meng's report, one of the officials frowned and said, "Wang Meng, according to what you said, Shadow reached level 3 half an hour ago. Why hasn't he returned to reality? Does he have no family in reality to notify?"
Wang Meng shook his head, "I don't know, maybe he really doesn't."
At this moment, a clear and pleasant female voice chimed in, "Uh, could this Shadow be a transmigrator? Aren't transmigrators usually orphans who rise quickly?"
???
Everyone was stunned and looked over in unison.
They saw a pretty policewoman in an elegant uniform, looking a bit dazed...
Her legs were long and straight, and her figure was full and eye-catching.
Seeing everyone looking at her, the pretty policewoman blushed, "Did I say something wrong?"
A minister-level official sighed, "An Yu! I told you to read fewer novels... Don't joke around in such a serious setting."
"Oh."
The policewoman stuck out her tongue and fell silent.
The officials continued discussing the matter of 'Shadow.'
"From Wang Meng's description, Shadow doesn't seem to have a bad personality."
"That's right, although he seems a bit temperamental, saving Wang Meng and the others shows he's a good person."
"It seems there's a need to establish connections with this Shadow."
After a brief discussion, the officials quickly decided to have Wang Meng and An Yu try to make contact with 'Shadow' in the game.
First, they needed to understand Shadow's personality.
Second, they needed to find out Shadow's real-world identity as much as possible.
Third, they needed to establish cooperation with Shadow on behalf of the government!
"Regarding lifespan, we've received confirmation from above that the data is accurate."
"Some older players died after entering the Abandoned Gods Game. After collecting and comparing data, it was confirmed that these deceased players died multiple times in the game, causing their lifespan to be halved repeatedly..."
"If the remaining lifespan is less than a day, dying will result in a forced deduction of one day's lifespan, leading to death!"
"So, this game is confirmed to be transcendent, and countries worldwide are taking it very seriously!"
...
The government now had two busy directions.
One was maintaining social stability.
The other was exploring the Abandoned Gods Game.
Human lifespan being controlled by a mysterious and eerie game forced governments worldwide to take it seriously!
Of course.
Currently, all governments and people worldwide only knew that the game could affect lifespan.
The truly important thing was...
Once someone reached level 10, they would receive a system prompt.
They could extract everything from the game—levels, attributes, equipment, skills—into reality by consuming tradable lifespan!
At that time, global chaos would truly begin!
...
Over an hour later.
Qin Xiaoyou forced herself to sleep in her dormitory, entering the Abandoned Gods Game.
Just like in her previous life.
She chose a random class...
And obtained the hidden class 'Life Sacrifice'!
This class had higher healing than a typical Priest, maximizing the survival environment for her teammates.
In her previous life, Qin Feng was just an ordinary Warrior, which made Qin Xiaoyou look down on him...
Even though Qin Feng was strong in combat.
Qin Xiaoyou still didn't really acknowledge Qin Feng...
But little did she know, Qin Feng chose the Warrior class just to protect her in the game.
In this life, without Qin Xiaoyou, Qin Feng directly obtained the unique hidden class 'Shadow'!
Though both were hidden classes, they were of different tiers.
Life Sacrifice was a common hidden class.
Others could also obtain such classes.
But Qin Feng's Shadow was unique!
Its strength was higher than typical hidden classes!
"Great, I got a hidden class..."
"Now, I can definitely match Brother Song Fei, right?"
Qin Xiaoyou was overjoyed.
Thinking of Qin Feng, she frowned, "He hasn't apologized to me yet, what's going on? Well, now that the Abandoned Gods Game is here, I'm a hidden class... Don't come begging me to help you level up!"
Having obtained a hidden class, Qin Xiaoyou was now quite full of herself.
Moreover, Zhang Wei had already promised to help her, boosting her confidence even more.
However, she clearly underestimated the difficulty of the Abandoned Gods Game, which would definitely give her a hard time!
...
Shell Town.
Qin Feng had filled his backpack with loot and planned to go back to handle it.
"Luckily, I got a storage backpack. Although it only has 5 slots, it can still hold five pieces of loot..."
In the Abandoned Gods Game, players start with a 10-slot backpack attached to their left waist.
Now, Qin Feng also had a black cloth bag on his right waist, adding 5 more slots.
Qin Feng did some quick calculations.
These items could sell for at least five hundred days of tradable lifespan!
You should know, after killing the Silver BOSS 'Curser,' he farmed for a long time and only managed to get a bit over six hundred days of lifespan.
These five hundred days were already quitesubstantial.
As he was stealthily making his way back, he saw two figures...
"Jiang Li from Grand River Industries?"
Qin Feng silently passed by her.
He overheard her conversation with the young man in her team.
Old Mao: "Miss, you've reached level 3, it's time to fulfill your promise, right?"
Pressure: "Don't worry, would Grand River Industries shortchange you? We're heading back to reality now, give me your phone number, and you can contact me... By the way, sell me all your tradable lifespan, I'll pay ten thousand per day, deal?"
Old Mao: "Sure, haha."
The young man, Mao Lijun, was just a common class, self-chosen Archer, and with his initial agility boost, he leveled up smoothly in the early stages.
Now, having brought Pressure to level 3, it was time to reap the rewards!
"Shadow... even though you've reached level 7, it's just a game."
"Like me, seize the opportunity to convert game abilities into cash, that's what a smart person does!"
"Even if this game truly affects lifespan, you can farm lifespan anytime, so why rush?"
Mao Lijun was smug.
He was thrilled at the prospect of receiving five million... no, over six million.
In his life, he had never seen so much money, which made him extremely excited!
...
Qin Feng, of course, couldn't be bothered with those two.
Soon, he returned to Shell Town.
He maintained his stealth and headed to the basement of the central square, descending the stairs to find a petrified teleportation gate!
He reached out to touch it.
——
[Congratulations, you have activated the teleportation array of Shell Town!]
[Shell Town is now connected to other starting towns in Jianghai City (Great Xia Nation), allowing one free teleportation per day (multiple teleportations require consuming tradable lifespan)!]
[You have gained 1 point of reputation!]
——
After finishing, Qin Feng returned to the square.
He resumed his appearance as a veiled, black-robed Assassin, appearing in the sight of the town's players, drawing countless envious, jealous, and admiring gazes!
