Everyone stared at the experience card.
“No way!” Suture Saint’s voice cracked, her eyes wide with disbelief as she stared at the card.
If this was real...
If this was real!!!
She couldn’t even begin to imagine the massive changes and upheaval the entire world would undergo.
Xie Lin yanked off his blindfold in shock.
Chu Fu had posted the experience card in the team chat. Since the chat content could appear on their retinas, even if Xie Lin had his eyes covered, he could still see it—like wearing night-vision goggles.
But the image was blurry.
Now, however, he was staring wide-eyed at that experience card.
Shen Chi’s breath grew rapid.
“Bringing power from the game into reality? Then what about... our healthy bodies?”
Shen Chi felt like the surprise had come far too quickly.
He was almost stunned.
“Does that mean... I’ll be able to walk too?”
Xie Lin also realized the implication.
“I... can I regrow my eyes?”
Chu Fu nodded.
“Yes, and not only that—you’ll also gain the talents you have in the game!”
Everyone’s scalps tingled with shock.
In contrast, Jiao Jiao Bu Jiao was much calmer. She had suspected something like this for a while; it was just slightly different from what she had guessed. Still, that didn’t stop her from admiring Chu Fu.
“Plant Girl, you’re incredible! How do you have something like this? Are you some kind of chosen one by fate?”
Chu Fu laughed, her eyes slightly upturned, a mix of charm and playfulness.
“No, my brother is the real chosen one. I’m just piggybacking off his luck!”
On the other end of the comms, Chu Feng, hearing the chatter, thought: No, something feels off, because I didn’t get an experience card either.
Just as he was about to say something, the call suddenly dropped with a series of beeps.
Chu Fu noticed it too.
She tried reopening the communication channel, but there was no signal—she couldn’t connect to anyone.
“Something’s wrong. I’ve lost signal here. The communicator won’t work anymore. My brother can’t track my location now.”
Right then, Jiao Jiao Bu Jiao’s phone rang. It turned out that Chu Feng, panicking when Chu Fu’s call cut off, thought something had happened!
He frantically called Jiao Jiao Bu Jiao.
“Chu Fu is fine. We’re still in the instance!”
“Brother, I’m okay, don’t worry. I have the experience card; no one here can touch me. Take your time finding people. I still need to finish this nightmare-level raid.”
“You’re still raiding?”
Chu Feng was shocked.
“What else would I do? I’m hanging up—there’s no time left on the lantern.” Chu Fu shouted.
Chu Feng: With that kind of determination to finish a raid, you’d succeed at anything.
Chu Feng logged off to deal with rescuing his sister’s gaming pod.
Chu Fu and her team, however, were racing against time.
Since Chu Fu insisted on clearing the dungeon, they had to finish it quickly so there would be no lingering worries.
Deep down, they were truly moved.
They felt that Chu Fu—having just received the experience card and being so openly honest with them, and still insisting on completing the raid—must be afraid that if something truly went wrong in reality, they wouldn’t be able to clear the dungeon without her.
She was willing to take risks just to secure the first kill.
She was truly a great teammate from the Hua clan.
In reality, Chu Fu just wanted to stockpile as many attribute points as possible.
That way, when she cashed them out later, as long as she had enough points,
her strength would be terrifying.
Normal people have 5 Strength?
With Chu Fu’s 50 Strength, she’d be on the level of Lin Daiyu effortlessly uprooting a willow tree.
So she was in a hurry.
Her teammates were in a hurry too. The thought that in-game attributes could become real—that they could stand again, that lost eyes could be restored—
Shen Chi and Xie Lin were charging forward like mad bulls.
In the nightmare-level raid, even the minor mobs had become elite mini-bosses, but under the team’s relentless barrage, they were annihilated on the spot.
Inside the nightmare-level Beast God Temple, the map was much larger. The first boss in the underground palace had become the Beast God Priest.
They steamrolled it easily.
The second boss was the Beast God Torchbearer.
[ Beast God Torchbearer (BOSS) Level 10: HP: 600,000. ]
“Sister Jiao, pull the boss now!” Chu Fu shouted.
Jiao Jiao Bu Jiao slammed her shield into the boss.
“Full damage output. Finish it in 30 seconds—don’t let it use any skills.”
They all understood.
They went all out.
Chu Fu’s Watermelon Bomb dealt 35,000 damage per detonation, though the boss had better defense than the Werewolf Tu Ge.
But the rest of the team wasn’t slacking either.
A relentless storm of attacks followed.
The boss collapsed to the ground with a crash.
“It dropped loot!”
Chu Fu looked at the skill book.
[ Scorching Fire Ring: Creates a ring of fire around the caster to burn enemies. ]
A top-tier aura-type skill book for fire mages.
First-kill rewards were insane!
“We can’t sell this skill. It stays in the guild for core members to bid on, and they’ll have to sign a contract!”
Chu Fu made the decision.
Everyone nodded.
After all, they were shareholders, and it was normal for raid drops to go into the guild inventory first.
As shareholders, they had to contribute to the guild.
They quickly moved into the final area of the Beast God Temple.
In an even more open hall stood a Beast God statue.
The boss was nowhere to be seen.
“The statue is the boss. Destroy it, and the Beast God will be summoned. So there’s no danger near it—in fact, we can prepare ahead of time.”
For this team, preparing ahead meant going all out for total annihilation!
Chu Fu immediately placed 20 watermelons around the statue.
After reaching Level 10 and allocating her points, she could now control 20 plants at once.
Not only that, but she also scattered Lala Vine and Dandelion seeds around the perimeter, stopping just short of sprouting them.
Shen Chi planted a bunch of mini-robots and landmines, which were his latest creations.
They were going to send the boss straight to the heavens in one go!
Once everything was set, Chu Fu continued:
“The nightmare-level boss is a Beast God Avatar. Being an avatar means it has no physical form and is immune to most physical damage.
However, it’s weak to Light and Fire damage.
Also, it has a gem on its forehead about the size of a palm. Hitting it with physical attacks deals bonus damage.
So this fight heavily tests everyone’s accuracy and positioning!
Since this boss is a spirit-type, it’s also immune to crowd control. Everyone, give it your all!”
Preparations complete, Chu Fu cast a Venom spell on the statue.
The statue sizzled as the venom corroded it, but the damage was minimal.
On the other hand, Shen Chi and Xie Lin’s damage was spiking.
The Mechanist’s artillery dealt extra damage to structures.
Shen Chi piloted a 4-meter tall mech, raising its arms to fire two stone-shattering shells.
“BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!”
Xie Lin’s greatsword was also perfect for hacking at the statue; each swing carved off chunks of debris.
Working together, the statue crumbled.
“Who dares disturb my slumber?”
A roar echoed through the hall.
A translucent figure emerged from the shattered rubble.
A colossal crocodile monster lay prostrate on the ground, its head alone as tall as a man, its maw wide enough to swallow a player whole in one gulp.
[Beast God Avatar (BOSS) Level: 10, Health: 1,200,000]
