The newcomer was an archer player.
Qin Feng had seen him once before in Shell Town... It was the young archer who was with Jiang Li, codenamed "Old Mao."
Initially, Jiang Li offered ten million to hire Qin Feng for leveling up, but Qin Feng refused.
As a result, Old Mao contacted Jiang Li and helped her level up...
He hoped to receive a hefty five million.
But when he went to collect the money, he was tightly bound by the thugs from Grand River Industries and taken to a basement in a villa where he was locked up!
Thus, Mao Lijun was coerced and tempted to work for Grand River Industries, forced to hand over his lifespan...
If he handed over too little lifespan, he wouldn't be given food or drink!
Mao Lijun was practically in tears.
Only then did he realize why "Shadow" didn't even want ten million at the time, having such foresight.
Damn it, this was life-threatening!
After being kidnapped by Grand River Industries, Mao Lijun compromised.
He even agreed to become Jiang Li's lackey, bringing two more people over for her...
At this moment!
He was here on Jiang Li's mission, waiting for "Shadow" in Glowfire Town!
"Shadow."
Old Mao, dressed in green leather armor, came to Qin Feng's stall, glanced at him, and said with a smile, "Our young lady said that as long as you are willing to help her level up, she can offer you three billion, plus shares in Grand River Industries!"
"How many times do you get such an opportunity in life? I advise you to cherish it!"
Hearing Mao Lijun's words, Qin Feng looked at him as if he were an idiot.
This guy probably didn't know yet that Jiang Li was already dead?
He only said one word: "Scram."
"??"
Mao Lijun froze on the spot.
He didn't expect that three billion, plus shares in Grand River Industries, couldn't move Shadow?
Although he was unwilling, he still slunk away dejectedly.
He had just heard that Shadow had quietly taken out Song Fei in reality!
How could he dare to stay and argue?
However...
He only knew that Song Fei was dead and didn't know that Jiang Li was dead too!
After all, he was detained in reality and had no access to outside information.
In the Abandoned Gods Game, he only heard about Song Fei's death from others' idle chatter.
As for Jiang Li...
Who was she?
After Mao Lijun left, he wasn't completely disheartened and still wanted to find an opportunity to invite Shadow over; otherwise, he wouldn't complete his task and would be whipped...
Just then, he overheard a few people nearby whispering.
"Damn, Shadow actually appeared, didn't he just take out Song Fei?"
"Not just Song Fei, it's said there was also a little beauty who was cruelly killed by him..."
"Huh? Isn't that a waste?"
"Waste your sister... It's said that woman was the young lady of Grand River Industries, named Jiang Li. She originally planned to capture Shadow in reality and take his lifespan, but was killed on the spot!"
"Hiss... How did Shadow manage that?"
"Who knows. It must be something with the Abandoned Gods Game... This world is about to change, let's level up quickly..."
...
"What? Jiang Li is dead?!"
Hearing the discussion, Mao Lijun felt as if struck by lightning on a clear day!
He stood there in disbelief.
Song Fei's death didn't affect him much, as there was no connection between them and they were far apart.
But Jiang Li...
She was a woman who terrified Mao Lijun!
"In such a short time, Shadow killed Song Fei and Jiang Li?"
"And it's an assassination?"
Mao Lijun felt a chill down his spine.
Shadow!
He had once laughed at Shadow for being foolish, not taking the free ten million, but in the end... the clown was himself!
"Luckily, I didn't provoke Shadow..."
Mao Lijun was terrified!
Death had always seemed far away from him.
But he never expected that Jiang Li, who was so high and mighty before him, would be taken out just like that!
He took one last look at Qin Feng's figure, trembling slightly, and hurriedly left...
...
Qin Feng didn't pay much attention to Mao Lijun's appearance.
To him, it was just a minor episode.
As he set up his stall, he noticed that the players in Glowfire Town seemed afraid and nervous around him, with some girls even avoiding passing by him, fearing his attention...
It seemed that many already knew that Song Fei was killed by him...
However, Qin Feng didn't care.
"At this time, some veterans have already entered the game."
"But they've all been assigned to the towns in the back, so I definitely won't see them here."
"In another two hours, others will reach level 10, and by then, I can prepare to head to the continent."
Qin Feng wasn't in a hurry.
Before heading to the Forsaken Gods Continent, he could first complete a full set of Gold and Platinum equipment in the initial town.
After all, once he got there, there would be so much he could do!
Soon, two players in black robes came to Qin Feng's stall.
"I have the coordinates of a Silver-level boss here..."
...
Meanwhile, as Qin Feng was preparing to hunt more bosses.
In the neighboring city of Jianghai, Magic Metropolis!
Jianghai City had a total population of over eight million.
While Magic Metropolis had a population of thirty-five million!
So far, the initial towns in the Jianghai City area had over seven hundred, with more than seven hundred thousand people entering the Abandoned Gods Game... This number would surge at night, quickly surpassing five million, until all adults entered the game.
In comparison, Magic Metropolis had an even larger population.
The initial towns in the Magic Metropolis area already numbered over four thousand and were increasing rapidly!
In one of the towns in the Magic Metropolis area.
There was a team that caught a lot of attention.
It was a woman in wind-burned leather armor, accompanied by five foreign men, three with white skin and two with black skin.
The woman seemed very close to the five of them, chatting and laughing!
She was none other than the daughter of the chairman of the Qian Group, Qian Shishi!
Originally, Qian Shishi planned to fly to North America... but with the arrival of the Abandoned Gods Game, flights were grounded.
So she contacted five foreign men in the Magic Metropolis area and entered the Abandoned Gods Game together.
Quickly, she spent the group's money to buy a lot of lifespan, then exchanged it for equipment and skill books, boosting her and the five foreign men's strength.
At this moment.
Qian Shishi walked with the five men in the town, sneering at the players who avoided her: "Look at these Great Xia men, weak as bugs. Tony, you North Americans are much more charming..."
A quiff-haired White Man named Tony beside her laughed and said, "Miss Qian, you have good taste. We're naturally much stronger than these Great Xia men. We're strong in other ways too, and when we return to reality, you can experience it well."
Qian Shishi giggled, "OK~ I'm looking forward to it..."
Then she thought of someone.
"By the way."
Qian Shishi suddenly said indifferently, "I just heard that useless Song Fei was killed? I played with him once before, and he was done in a minute, such a waste..."
"The Shadow from Jianghai City can kill Song Fei, so it should be even easier for him to kill a common person, right?"
"Everyone, I'll log off to make a call and have someone contact Shadow to help me kill someone in Jianghai City!"
The person she wanted to kill...
Was naturally Qin Feng!
After all, Qin Feng repeatedly refused her "play" invitations, completely ignoring her, which made her very unhappy.
In her view, it was the other person's honor that she even considered a Great Xia man!
Just a mere employee of a subsidiary company.
How dare he refuse her?
"If you don't give me face, then you should die. Of course, spending a lot of money to kill you is a waste, the key is to use this to connect with Shadow... Although he's a Great Xia man, he's the global number one, I can reluctantly get to know him~"
Qian Shishi smirked, thinking she had everything under control.
However...
She didn't know that the Qin Feng she wanted to kill was actually Shadow!
Hiring Shadow to assassinate Qin Feng... was she trying to kill herself?!
...
Of course, Qin Feng was unaware of this.
As he prepared to hunt bosses everywhere.
On the other side, Qin Xiaoyou, who had been rejected for her gift, had fallen into an emo state.
She had intended to sever ties with Qin Feng and cling to Shadow.
But...
Things turned out completely different from what she imagined!
