He's absolutely cheating!

"Someone took the bronze grade first kill?"

Looking at the world announcement that popped up before him, Chen Ming felt surprised, but not entirely shocked.

[Wealthy Under Heaven], one of the ten strongest people on Blue Star in his previous Life, was as rich as a nation and had a deep background, maintaining profound friendships with both the Dragon and Demon Civilizations.

It was only logical for such a person to take the bronze grade boss first kill at this stage.

...

Falling Leaf Village!

[Huang Quan] had reached the final stage of his strategy against a bronze grade boss.

He only needed to wait for the boss's berserk state to end before he could easily slay it.

Thinking of this, [Huang Quan], who was currently invisible, couldn't help but let a smile curl at the corners of his mouth.

But right then, a series of world announcements suddenly popped up before his eyes.

[World Announcement: Congratulations to player [Wealthy Under Heaven] for successfully killing the Bay Giant Turtle (bronze grade boss) and securing the bronze boss first kill.] x10.

"How is this possible!"

Looking at the world announcement, [Huang Quan]'s eyes were filled with shock... and fury.

He was only one step away from killing the boss before him and taking the bronze grade first kill to prove to the world that he was the strongest player.

He hadn't expected to be intercepted at the critical moment.

"Wealthy Under Heaven..."

Looking at the name in the world announcement, [Huang Quan] felt like killing someone right now.

First, it was Calamity who snatched a boss first kill from him, and now Wealthy Under Heaven had intercepted the bronze grade boss first kill.

"Do they really think I have a good temper?"

"Calamity..."

"Wealthy Under Heaven..."

"You'd better hope I don't run into you."

[Huang Quan] let out a hysterical roar.

But at that moment, another world announcement popped up before him.

[World Announcement: Congratulations to player [Calamity] for successfully killing the Lair Lizard Lord (silver grade boss) and securing the silver grade boss first kill.] x10.

“This...”

[Huang Quan] was instantly stunned in place.

Calamity... took the silver grade boss first kill?

After reacting, [Huang Quan] instantly flew into a rage.

"Impossible! Calamity... how could he have the strength to kill a silver grade boss!"

"He's definitely cheating."

"Damn it!"

That was a silver grade boss; even he wasn't a match for a silver grade boss right now.

Yet Calamity had done it.

Envy, jealousy, resentment, anger... all sorts of emotions swirled within him.

"He must be cheating, I'm going to report him."

"Despicable cheater!"

[Huang Quan] said through gritted teeth.

However, just then, the boss in its berserk state followed the sound of his voice and suddenly charged over.

"Not good!"

Coming to his senses, [Huang Quan] hurriedly tried to dodge, but it was too late.

The giant serpent boss instantly bound him tightly. [Huang Quan] could only watch helplessly as his health dropped lower and lower until he finally collapsed in frustration.

At the same time, the [World Chat Channel] also began to boil over.

"Holy crap, is this for real?"

"A bronze boss first kill and a silver grade boss first kill were taken at the same time."

"That's incredible!"

"By the way, who is this [Wealthy Under Heaven]? Never heard of him before, he wasn't a beta tester, yet he quietly took the bronze grade boss first kill."

"The Great Calamity Player is still the fiercest; he killed a silver grade boss on the second day."

"The Great One is awesome!"

"The Great One is awesome +1!"

"The Great One is awesome +..."

"The Great One is awesome +999..."

"@Calamity, are you taking followers? I've been a professional lackey for twenty years, specializing in riding on others' coattails. Begging for a chance to cling to your thigh."

"@Calamity, please give me a chance to be a leg hair accessory."

"Wait, how can you all talk to my father @Calamity like that?"

...

Seaside Village.

[Wealthy Under Heaven] looked at the world announcement about Calamity taking the silver grade boss first kill, his eyes full of surprise.

Wait, this Calamity is way too fierce.

Taking a silver grade boss first kill this quickly!

"Hey, Karl, if I wanted to kill a silver grade boss, how many gold coins would I need to pay?"

[Wealthy Under Heaven] subconsciously asked Karl, who was currently recovering nearby.

Karl glanced at him indifferently: "I wouldn't do it for any amount of money. If you want to die, don't drag me with you."

Hearing Karl's answer, [Wealthy Under Heaven] understood.

Karl was a level 20 mercenary, and if even he wasn't a match for a silver grade boss, yet Calamity could take the first kill on the second day of the game.

Good heavens, isn't this exactly the kind of powerhouse backer he dreamed of!

"If I can cling to Calamity's thigh, won't I have a backer for the rest of my Life?"

With that thought, [Wealthy Under Heaven] made up his mind.

Once he entered the main city area, he had to find a way to make friends with this Great Calamity Player.

...

Silver Dragon Village.

The Lair.

Time went back a few minutes.

Under Chen Ming's frantic damage output, the Lair Lizard Lord had already reached a low health state.

"It's over!"

As Chen Ming fired a Flame Incineration World-Ending Arrow, the low-health Lair Lizard Lord was instantly killed before it even had time to enter its berserk mode.

[Ding! You have successfully killed the Lair Lizard Lord, Experience +35,580.]

[Ding! You have successfully killed the Lair Lizard Lord and secured the silver grade boss first kill. Congratulations, you have received rewards: Lair Belt (silver grade), frenzy potion (gold grade).]

[Your deeds will be announced to the world. Would you like to remain anonymous?]

A dense cluster of notifications popped up, and Chen Ming decisively chose no.

He then quickly checked the rewards.

It was decent equipment, but it could be better.

Chen Ming activated his talent.

[Congratulations! You have obtained the equipment — Life Goddess's Blessing Belt (Dark Gold Grade).]

[Ding! You have used your Forbidden Talent on the [Lair Belt], successfully adding a Blue Affix: Life.]
