Chapter 13: C013—Continent LXV

[ Successfully reached the 232nd step of Senri Kaidan ]

[ Obtained Azurite (B) (1x) ]

[ Attribute upgraded:

Strength (+2) 

Agility (+2) ] 

[ Stunned for (5 seconds) ]

Finally, Rein has accomplished it. He had been waiting for this attribute since the 205th step, as it would allow him to set a new record. Now, he is eager to achieve all of the attribute records after Gaia told him she would not share Rein's identity with everyone.

—DING!

[ Congratulations! You have reached (100) Strength ]

[ " Congratulations, Rein! You have broken the record for the fastest player to reach (100) Strength, at a time of [200(m):45(s):45(ms)] !!! " ]

[ Previous record [19,990(m):45(s):12(ms)] ]

[ Achieved Special Title [Strongful] ]

It only took 15 minutes more, and unlike other attributes, strength is the easiest to collect. The previous record was ever achieved by a normal player in just 13 days and 8 hours.

"That person must have just been hitting wooden dolls every time they logged in," said someone who obtained his attribute by climbing a hill.

Rein could have used Azurite grade B, but he felt it would be a waste if he encountered difficulties in the future because his attribute was not suitable for climbing the Senri Kaidan. So, he kept it for emergencies and promised not to be reckless like before. 

If we're talking about strength, all players know what it feels like. However, Rein doesn't understand the direct effects of 100 points of Wisdom. More accurately, he hasn't realized it yet. 

Only forms of life like the Senri Kaidan are aware of the presence of Wisdom. 

The stun still causes his head to feel disrupted. After regulating his breathing, Rein continued his journey.

[ Announcement! ]

[ The Record of Crossof has just discovered a new achievement! ]

[ Someone has just broken the world record for the fastest achievement of (100) Strength ]

[ A fiery passion will envelop the universe ]

From this point on, the whole world was shocked simultaneously as players in the Crossof Realm began to take the arrival of this anonymous figure seriously. They walked, sat, drank, and ate, but their minds were so focused on waiting for another announcement of the Record of Crossof.

This narrow world doesn't need too many people to stand at the top! Survive or be eliminated?

That's what they were thinking...

[ Successfully reached the 277th step of Senri Kaidan ]

....

"I AM STILL STRONG!!!" Rein shouted, using all of his effort to climb the stairs that were sapping his soul, "My body feels more comfortable to use. Is this a bonus from the Strength Special Title?" Rein was dumbfounded.

"Why did I only think of this now?!?" He had been suffering since earlier and had not thought of anything other than climbing the stairs. 

Now, he had just realized a new thing, the Special Title.

[ Congratulations! You have reached (100) Vitality ]

[ " Congratulations, Rein! You have broken the record for the fastest player to reach (100) Vitality, at a time of [222(m):12(s):22(ms)] !!! " ]

[ Previous record [24,578(m):24(s):33(ms)] ]

[ Achieved Special Title [All Sources] ]

"I even forgot that my next target is the Vitality attribute. Let's check it out!

"Open Special Title All Sources!"

[ ACCESS DENIED ] 

Rein couldn't believe he had to hold in the incredible curiosity inside him since arriving at this place. Invited by a stranger, on a Special Quest related to the Sakuya race, and all of it happened just because he accepted that Unique Race.

It turned 180 degrees so fast that he couldn't even control it and just went straight with that path.

"I really have to finish all of this and enter the Training Zone!"

[ Announcement! ]

[ The Record of Crossof has just discovered a new achievement! ]

[ Someone has just broken the world record for the fastest achievement of (100) Vitality ]

[ Lively sources will envelop the universe ]

Now, almost all the players who were playing at that time were starting to pay attention to the ongoing timeline of the Record of Crossof. They were all having fun and welcoming the year 2056 but were enjoying something more surprising than fireworks. 

They even changed their new year's wish to...

"I hope that anonymous player is from our continent!"

They're all excited about the emergence of the unknown player.

Hundreds of players gathered at the Adventure Guild of Long, a building managed by an NPC named Ling. It was a place for players to take on quests and was located in the east of the 65th continent, known as Continent LXV. 

This continent is one of the 68 that are available on the Crossof planet and can be inhabited by players. It is part of Land Rank 1, which is the starting area for all players after the Training Zone. 

Beasts in this area range from level 10 to level 120. Land Rank 1 is divided into 5 continents, with African players in Continent LXIV, Asian and Australian in LXV, European in LXVI, South American in LXII, and North American in LXIII.

Inside the Adventure Guild of Long, there was a commotion surrounding the Record of Crossof. Players from various countries in Continent LXV were exchanging their opinions and views about an extraordinary player journey in the timeline

"I don't think that player is from our continent... it's been too long since we've had a good new player."

"Come on, why are you thinking that way? Having that player in our continent must be a good sign! Don't ever say that again!"

"Yeah! We need strong players!"

"Use your brain, brothers! Our best players have been playing Crossof Realm since its release, like Zhao," the person said while pointing to Zhao who was sipping tea at another table, "Kazuki, Kanna, Khan'an, Hamza, who else? Did you think there's another great player that exists and not playing Crossof Realm?!"

Everyone is furious by that statement .... 

"SAY THAT TO MY FACE!!"

"SO YOU WANT A SWORD?!!"

They were both ready to break the table in front of them, but they stopped after Ling threw a spoon at them, so they sat peacefully again. None of them wanted to have a clash with Ling, as that NPC is a warrior at level 285.

"S-so you want a spoon? Here..."

But it didn't stop them from sharing their thoughts again. Zhao doesn't care about that and was enjoying his tea.

"Like he said, Zhao, what's your opinion on that mysterious player? What if the player is from our continent too?" asked a player with a bow hanging behind them.

Zhao didn't answer and just shifted his gaze to the corner of the room. The other players who had been looking and talking with him were confused about what Zhao was looking for.

They looked at a player in the corner, a man who was seven feet tall and wearing a white robe stained with blood and a greatsword on his shoulder.

"Is that Ethan? Has he returned already?"

"Isn't he supposed to be in Land Rank 3?"

"Could he have cleared that Level 195 Dungeon?"

Ethan is one of the top players in the Asia & Australia region and is known for his fierce movements when using that greatsword. No one can stop him when he combines it with a mount.

Ethan walked towards Zhao, who was sitting comfortably with a cup of tea. The crowded building quickly became quiet, as the two of them had been rivals since the release of Crossof Realm. 

All of the players in Continent LXV had witnessed their competition, especially six months ago when Ethan was defeated by Zhao with bare hands in the arena. 

Ethan raised his greatsword into the air. 

All of the players were ready to see a clash between them, but a new player would turn their attention to the NPC, Ling. 

Ling often interrupted players if they wanted to fight inside the Adventure Guild building, but there was a clear exception and everyone knew it....

If Ling doesn't interrupt you, then you are considered to have respect and are known as the strongest among others. Because of this fact, all of the players in Continent LXV have created an unofficial competition called 'Ling Approved' They even have a large wall in front of the Adventure Guild of Long, to put a placard for a player that gets Ling Approved. 

The placard is filled with the player's name and the date they received respect from Ling. 

Sometimes, a random player who wants to gain respect from Ling creates a mess inside the Adventure Guild, but instead of gaining respect, they receive a ban from entering the building by Ling.

But what they were hoping for did not happen. Ethan placed his greatsword on the table, "Zhao, do you know that wonder kid?"

"Ask someone else," Zhao almost got emotional because the greatsword was touching his teacup, but he relaxed after noticing that the teacup was still okay.

"Don't think you can run from this, you are my only rival in Strength. How can a normal player climb that fast without someone's help?"

"Everyone is also disturbed by that, can you just pay attention to him and don't bother me—"

—SLING—

A dagger flew straight toward Zhao's face.

THUD—

The dagger stuck in the wooden wall behind him. Zhao, being a martial artist, was able to see the movement and successfully avoided it.

"Oh? He's not bad, Ethan!"

"Shut up." Ethan picked up his greatsword from the table and walked away from Zhao.

"Sorry, Sir." The man, who was only a head shorter than Ethan, also walked out of the building following him.

The other players were either afraid and pretended not to know their existence or like Zhao. He felt down since an hour ago, and had no intention of responding to the insulting action, Zhao only gave a smile to Ling who was watching him all the time.

"Don't touch this or you'll die," Zhao said as he looked at the dark, sharp dagger. "May I have an Antidote grade A, Ling?"

Being asked that, Ling quickly threw a bottle of Antidote, then Zhao poured it onto a cloth, pulled out the dagger, wrapped it, and threw the dangerous dagger to Ling.

After that, everyone returned to their own business, they were too impressed to talk with Zhao after the beautiful conversation between the player and NPC. It was strange to see an NPC giving an item willingly without any force or quest. Even the person who asked about the mysterious player to Zhao earlier had also disappeared from his sight.

Zhao continued to lose himself in thought and enjoyed his tea, but suddenly someone sent him a message...

—PING!

[ Kanna: Zhao?! Are we going now? ]

Zhao gave a small smile at the message.

[ Zhao: You're late, we already did it earlier~ ]

—PING!

[ Kanna: AAAAHH! YOU GUYS LEFT ME BEHIND?! I'll just do it with Kiara then! ]

[ Zhao: Aahahaha, if she's still awake~ ]

Zhao smiled widely after sending the message. He was tired and exhausted from exploring the dungeon, yet the party had only covered 15% of it.

[ Kanna: You guys are so mean!!! ;((((( ]

[ Kanna: Jaa! I want to sleep! ]

Zhao closed the screen and still smiled widely, but he felt bad for it and wanted to apologize in person later. But it's not finished yet.

—PING!

[ Kanna: Record of Crossof, is he the culprit? ]

[ Zhao: I don't know, Kiara didn't say anything, and the information on the forum didn't help either.... ]

[ Kanna: Oh.. is Kiara still ignoring him? ]

[ Zhao: She's just focused on killing beasts with us.... ]

[ Kanna: Isn't it a strange coincidence that the anonymous player reached it in 3 hours! And 3 hours ago was New Year's for UTC +7! ]

[ Zhao: Kanna-san, you should just go to sleep, do you want us to leave you again? ]

[ Kanna: !!!!!!!!! ]

—DING!

[ Announcement! ]

[ The Record of Crossof has just discovered a new achievement! ]

[ Someone has just broken the world record for the fastest achievement of (100) Toughness ]

[ Nature energy will envelop the universe ]

"WOAAHHHHHH!!!!"

"LET'S GOOOOO!!!!"

All of the players inside the Adventure Guild of Long cheered for the new record. Everyone felt the same excitement and trembled uncontrollably, including Zhao.

His tea was spilled all over the table.

[ Zhao: I guess I want to sleep too ]

[ Kanna: Let's go to sleep! ]
