GENESYS

TWENTY FIVE

Seven more days passed since Leon entered Broodmother's Lair. 

It would be a whole two days in reality that he was playing nonstop. He was not new to staying in Genesys for a long period of time as he often does so in the past. If not for some arrangements that need to be done in real life, he would have stayed a couple more days.  

[Ding!]

[You level up!]

[Congratulations! You are now level 100]

[Warning: You've reached your limit and would not level up anymore.]

[You have gained a new title!]

The notification Leon has been waiting for has finally arrived. The 1,000,000 kill title.

[Spider slaughterer]

+ 50% damage for spider

+100% poison damage.

+120 agility

- 100 spider race favorability

[First Slaughterer]

+50% damage to all creature

+50 to all stats

‘Isn’t this title a little broken?’ 

Killing 1,000,000 creatures of the same race haven’t been done before and probably would not happen so he doesn’t have anything accurate to compare it with, but based on his previous title. It can be considered an epic title as it matches the [Protector of Arthur] and [The holder of the code] he once has. 

‘If I can kill 1,000,000 of every species in Genesys I would probably be unstoppable, hahaha.’ Leon laughed maniacally but immediately dismissed such thoughts as he would need a dozen lifetime to complete such a task. 

'Now that I've reached the levels limit and even got the title I want, I don't see any more reason for me to stay here. Even my poison blood skill seems to have reached a bottleneck.'

[Poison Blood lv.44] 

'Do I need to risk it and explore?' Leon contemplates. He doesn't like to fight a battle that is out of his control but he has no choice. He didn't know any other place where he can obtain class advancement tome and no trainer would be willing to help him because he was considered as the enemy of the world. Even those in alignment with evil will not help him.

'I need to get stronger fast or those bastards would hunt me down. I'm pretty sure that damn fairy already planned something wicked for me.'

Leon decided to risk it all and conquer Broodmother's Lair but first, he had to eat real food and be at his best. He doesn't know what's up ahead and the danger he has to face in this dungeon so he has to be alert. 

He removed his helmet and moved to the kitchen to get something to eat but as he was about to stand, his feet felt numb and he stumbled down.

"I completely forgot about this." 

Laying down for two days without moving a single inch will make every single part of your body feel numb, not to mention without food and water.

Neo warns players that they shouldn't enter Genesys for anywhere longer than 8 hours without logging out. They even install safety measures that will automatically log the player out if they exceed the amount allocated but this received a huge backlash from players as they keep getting log out in the most crucial time. This prompted Neo to add an option to the player to remove it but they would denounce any liability thereafter.

After stretching his body for a few minutes, Leon arrives at the kitchen and makes himself a couple of sandwiches and a milkshake. He then picks up his phone and dials a number. 

"I already transferred the money when would your people arrive to protect my family?"

"They would arrive tomorrow, don't worry."

"How about the list?"

"Still in progress, It would take a couple of months. They are bigger than expected."

"Is that going to be a problem?"

"No, it would just require a lot of money so you better be prepare." 

"I'll get the money but in the meantime, I want that man called Ivan dead."

"Alright, I would send you his dead picture tomorrow."

"Thanks"

"If your thankful invite me to dinner."

"Some other time." 

…….

ZNN breaking news! This just in, Arcane church issues a crusade for Ostarion Netropolis. Players around the world are gathering to participate in such a momentous event. If you're a member of the church and you still not register, better hurry up or you would regret it. News that the player with the highest achievement would receive the rare class [Holy Knight] and a sit to join Silverhand. We still don't know when the crusade started but we can see that Arcane church is pulling out the big guns. We have inside intel that even Luther and Artas would participate.

Leon watches the news with a turkey sandwich in his hand. When he heard the name Luther, the sandwich in his hand fell.

'Why did the Arcane church suddenly do a crusade in Netropolis? Why now? It's too much of a coincidence." Leon quickly picks up the sandwich and eats it. 

'Damn fairy, why did Luther have to get involved?' Leon grumbles as he prepares another couple of turkey sandwiches.

Luther is Leon's master back when he was just a squire training to be a holy knight. Luther is famous even among the best of what Arcane church has to offer. He was the leader of the silver hand, an elite group tasked to keep the 12 demons of Solomon in hell. Back when he still served Arthur, Luther had already retired from his position and was living a simple life as a guardian for the young prince Artas. 

'Damn, Old man you should have stay retire.'

After finishing his meal, Leon does a couple of light exercises and goes straight to bed. 

Although players are basically sleeping while playing Genesys. Their mind is pretty much as active as they are awake so players still need to go to sleep.

When Leon wakes up, it was still dark. After doing another round of light exercise, he once again put on his OPH.

'Time to conquer Broodmother's Lair.'

"Link start! Genesys"
