Chapter 12
However, once the Ancient Witch Queen, this special boss, is killed once, all her avatars across the Myriad Realms lose their Slaughter Enhancement ability.
When she respawns, she becomes just an ordinary Leader-level Monster.
If you can kill her once, you can kill her ten or a hundred times!
You can always farm her later. Even if the drop rate is low, in an infinite world, someone is bound to get the other pieces eventually.
After taking stock of his gains, Qin Han didn’t leave. Instead, he walked into the Ancient Witch Queen’s room with a hint of anticipation.
As the Ancient Witch Queen, surely her room would contain something valuable, right?
The room consisted of only three sections:
a bedroom on the left, a living room in the middle, and a kitchen on the right.
The furnishings were ancient and unremarkable.
[Discovered Ancient Dining Knife. Pick it up?]
[Discovered Ancient Plate. Pick it up?]
[Discovered Flatbread made from an Ancient Recipe. Pick it up?]
[Discovered Ancient Silk Quilt. Pick it up?]
Qin Han circled the room but found nothing of real value.
These so-called "ancient" items were just ordinary, worthless objects.
Besides, they had been used by the Ancient Witch Queen, so he couldn’t be bothered to take them.
Just as he was about to leave in disappointment, he spotted a faintly glowing book on the Witch Queen’s bookshelf.
The game system hadn’t given any prompt for it, nearly causing him to miss it.
The book was thin, with a leather cover bearing four gilded characters: Land of Shadows.
Opening it, he found an account of the Witch Queen’s extraordinary experience.
In ancient times, the Witch Queen had once wandered into a strange dimensional space within the Ancient God Domain and obtained a Shadow Crystal.
This Shadow Crystal could create a perfect clone of the original body, even sharing its strength.
In other words, whether it was the original or the clone, as long as one grew stronger, both would progress simultaneously.
After the Witch Queen was replicated countless times by the Heavenly Dao and became a boss in the Beginner's Village, the Shadow Crystal was also duplicated endlessly.
All Witch Queens across the Myriad Realms shared their strength, mutually enhancing one another.
This was precisely why, in his past life, she had become an almost invincible, monstrous terror.
Qin Han’s breathing grew rapid at this revelation.
In the later stages of the game, there existed supreme artifacts like the Divine Spark.
Fusing with one would instantly make one a god.
However, ordinary people could only fuse with a single Divine Spark.
But with this Shadow Crystal…
didn’t that mean it was possible for one person to possess multiple Divine Sparks?
Such a treasure was likely more valuable than even the rarest artifacts.
With it, he could shine brilliantly on the Final Battlefield.
Qin Han resolved that, in this life, he must obtain it!
Unfortunately, he remembered the Ancient God Domain as a late-game area, and he wasn’t strong enough to venture there yet.
He could only postpone this for now.
Closing the book and stowing it in his saddlebag, Qin Han mounted his Nightmare and galloped away.
He still had many things to do.
…
Meanwhile, in Beginner's Village 688, deep within the Wild Bull Grassland, Liu Kuang tirelessly farmed Wild Bulls to level up.
He was lucky enough to encounter a massive herd, and the sheer number of Wild Bulls allowed him to level up rapidly.
After clearing the herd, Liu Kuang smoothly reached Level 3.
[Congratulations to player Liu Kuang from this village for being the first to reach Level 3! Reward: +1 Constitution.]
Liu Kuang stopped when he saw this and opened the Level Rankings. His name, Liu Kuang, was prominently displayed in first place. Aside from him, ten others had reached level 2, while the rest were mostly level 1, with a few even still at level 0. Moreover, the Chat Area was flooded with people desperately praising him. By now, Liu Kuang seemed accustomed to it and no longer felt shy. With a smug smile, he muttered to himself, "Ah, it's lonely at the top." "But others are catching up fast. Since it's still early, I'd better hurry and keep leveling!" "The EXP needed from level 3 to 4 has jumped significantly, and killing Wild Bulls gives diminishing returns. Time to move to a new grinding area."
He was already deep in the grasslands, and not far away, he could see the habitat of the Wild Wolves. "These Wild Wolves look tough. Not sure how easy they are to kill, but with my experience slaughtering bulls, I should figure it out after some trial and error." Filled with anticipation, Liu Kuang closed the Chat Area, gripped his blade, and headed toward the Wild Wolf Area.
Just then, in Beginner's Village 688, a sudden Village Announcement popped up unexpectedly: "Congratulations to player Liu Lu for being the first in this village to complete a Job Change, rewarded with Constitution +1!"
The abrupt news left all players stunned. A barrage of questions immediately flooded the chat: "Job Change? What's that? It even triggered a system announcement! Must be super important, right? @Liu Lu" "@Liu Lu, bro, care to explain?"
Unaware of the rarity of professions, Liu Lu readily replied in the chat: "Guys, a Job Change means becoming a profession holder. Profession holders get a Profession Aura and Growth Value Bonuses. I’m a Beginner Profession, and according to the description, every time I level up, I’ll get a 1.5x Growth Value bonus."
"Holy crap! So you get five extra Constitution points per level compared to us?! That’s insane!" "Bro, what are the conditions for a Job Change? What level do you need?"
"Liu Lu: Not much, really. About two kilometers north of the village, there’s a Blade Hall. I stumbled into it while grinding. After some training and a test, I got it. As for conditions, seems like there aren’t any—I’m still level 0."
"No way!! I’m heading there ASAP!" "@Liu Lu, bro, I’m already level 1. If I change jobs now, do I get the bonus for the levels I’ve already gained?"
"Liu Lu: From what the description says, probably not!"
"WHAT?! That’s five Constitution points gone! Just like that!" "Damn, guys, doesn’t this mean the correct way to play is to change jobs before leveling up? So all the levels we gained today are actually a loss?"
"Look at Liu Kuang, ranked first on the leaderboard. He’s already level 3. If he’d changed jobs, he’d have a 15-point Constitution bonus by now. But since he leveled up first, his reward was only three points. Huge loss!"
"Liu Lu: It’s probably even bigger, guys. From what I’ve learned, Beginner Profession is just the lowest tier. There are Intermediate, Advanced, and even higher professions above it. The higher you go, the bigger the growth multiplier."
"Holy shit! That's insane! What's the point of leveling up now? Cut the losses and go change jobs ASAP!"
"Oh my god, this is unreal. Liu Kuang, who was just the top-ranked player, instantly became the bottom feeder. I almost feel bad for him."
"Why feel bad? It's just a game—full of surprises. I thought Liu Kuang would dominate Beginner's Village, but now it looks like he's gonna be the village joke. And to think some idiots were kissing his ass this morning."
"Exactly. He's just a butcher who slaughters cows, relying on brute strength to temporarily top the rankings. What kind of skill is that? This is a universe-level game, sweeping across realms—it’s not just about grinding levels and killing monsters. Raw strength won’t get you far."
"Brothers, let’s go! Hurry and change jobs! We’ll show some people what it truly means to be a real gamer—with brains!"
