Chapter 594 - Low or High Profile
Invikill’s expression was undoubtedly very serious. One could say he was grimacing.
Feng Luo was the “Second player to awaken the Force in War.” In addition, they had the same profession, Sniper. To him, the “Number one Sniper in War,” Feng Luo was a direct threat.
In addition to that, there were also the words of the surrounding players, whether they were intentional or non-intentional.
“Hold on a minute. The Detection skill showed that Feng Luo’s level is 53, but Invikill is only Level 52 right now…” The gaze of some of the players from the top ten guilds began to shift between Feng Luo and Invikill as if they were thinking about something while speaking teasingly.
“Levels don’t really necessarily mean first or second, right? Invikill spent most of his time taking part in guild activities and events. Going behind in levels is more than normal.” Some players disagreed.
“Most importantly, anyone would immediately reveal the news after awakening the Force. It is incredibly beneficial after all. Do you think that someone would hide the fact that they have awakened the Force? Your guesses are impossible.”
“You’re wrong. He is already Level 53. Although the daily experience limit after Level 50 has increased, he would still technically need ten days to get to Level 53, right?”
“He’s already awakened the Force for around ten days, yet there hasn’t been any such news. It is clear that he had no intention to reveal this… Not everyone wants to become famous after all. Don’t forget that back then when Invikill awakened the Force, it came from some internal source…” The player from one of the top ten guilds who spoke earlier continued to speak with an intrigued expression.
The other player no longer spoke. His confused gaze shifted between Feng Luo and Invikill.
However, Invikill, who was standing not that far away, remained quiet. His expression could not be seen. It was as if he had not heard any of the conversation going on.
As for Feng Luo, his cold gaze remained fixed on the Scout player.
“Take it!” The Scout player had an ugly grimace. He gritted his teeth and passed the chip to Feng Luo.
With his personality, he wanted to throw the chip back on the ground. However, with Feng Luo’s rifle muzzle aimed straight at him, he did not dare do that.
Since Feng Luo had awakened the Force, the Scout was certain that it was impossible for him to best Feng Luo in combat.
Although he had a few teammates who were just as strong as him, since he had encountered Feng Luo during disembarkation to the island, he knew that Feng Luo had a lot more acquaintance. Moreover, this “superstar” seemed to have a close relationship with the organizer of the expedition – the Nine-Star Guild.
He no longer had any chance to do anything, which meant that he could only hand the chip over to Feng Luo.
Feng Luo received the pet biochip from the Scout and confirmed the chip’s grade.
Second Generation Biochip (Model: OD-S2). Grade: Highest. Application Scope: DXY-1XXXX type creatures
The first Quasi-Boss chip was finally in his hands.
Considering its market value, the 500 million credits was finally not a dream. Once he returned to the city, he would be able to prepare the production equipment for Legendary Grade gears.
Of course, the prerequisite was that they had to defeat the North City in the exploration expedition, due to the fact that every loot they obtained on the island would drop if they died.
The reason the Scout player handed the chip over to Feng Luo was also due to this. In other places, if one was able to snatch a battle loot, one might try to put it into one’s inventory since it may not drop if the player died. As long as it did not drop, the players would make a huge profit.
However, on this island, even if he put the chip into his inventory, it was guaranteed to drop once he died. So, he could only grit his teeth and hand it over.
At that moment, he was facing the cold stares and ridiculing gaze of many players. He could only leave and meet up with his teammates before moving quickly to the edge of the battlefield where there were fewer players.
“Hmph. Don’t think that I’ve run out of options… Just you wait, when the people from North City get here…” As he walked, the Scout player glared at Feng Luo, who was surrounded by various players from the top guilds, while thinking vengeful thoughts.
…
“Captain Feng, congratulations. Now, there is no way for you to remain low profile anymore!” Stated a laughing Phoenix.
“Old Feng, why are you so high profile this time? Can’t you wait for me to awaken the Force and enjoy the treatment of superstar players? I’m starting to make some progress.” Big Pineapple said with a jealous tone as well as a “pretentious” expression, seemingly wanting to be in Feng Luo’s shoes.
“Holy crap, Old Feng, you’re really tight-lipped, huh! And here I was thinking that you’re my bro!” At that moment, Zhao Yun also sighed and shook his head, not bothering with the fact that he had only known Feng Luo and the others for one day.
As “Storm City’s Number Two Expert,” he desired the special stat of the Force as well.
The day before, when he spoke to Big Pineapple and Feng Luo, they mentioned the Force; however, whether it was Big Pineapple or Feng Luo, whenever they talked about it, the two of them had weird expressions on their faces, they never mentioned this to him at all.
However, Zhao Yun was only joking. After all, they’ve only just met, it was more than normal for one to not reveal something like this. He knew from Feng Luo’s actions that Feng Luo was used to keeping a low profile.
Now that it was revealed that he possessed the Force in a situation like this, it was just as Phoenix mentioned, there was no way for him to maintain his low profile anymore.
At least his ID – “Feng Zhi Luo Ye” had no way of maintaining a low profile. Feng Luo activated the recording limitation, which meant that his character’s face could not be recorded and thus would not be uploaded to the forum, the only remaining thing was his ID.
It wasn’t only because he had awakened the Force; it was also because he was a Sniper, which was the same profession as Invikill.
The September Guild spent a lot of effort and money to push Invikill’s popularity up to the highest level in War. His best title was the “Number one Sniper” who was the only one who had awakened the Force.
Now things were getting interesting.
While none of them could get on the forum at that moment since they were in a mission, once any player died, the news would spread almost instantly. By the time the mission was completed, the topic would definitely be hot news on the forum.
“Mr. Feng, congratulations. But with your strength, becoming famous was inevitable, it was simply either sooner or later…” With regard to Feng Luo awakening the Force, Red Queen congratulated him while lamenting him at the same time.
She was feeling quite conflicted at the moment. Back when she first hired Feng Luo, while he was quite capable and strong, he was only a normal random player who had just passed Level 40 and was equipped with Excellent Grade items.
In a few short months, Feng Luo had reached this stage.
For now, since he had awakened the Force, in terms of strength, Feng Luo was one of the best.
Due to various reasons, his popularity would, without a doubt, be comparable to the best superstar players.
After congratulating Feng Luo, Red Queen suddenly whispered to him, “Mr. Feng, you probably awakened the Force before Invikill, right?”
The day before, when the female Scout talked about Invikill being the number one player to awaken the Force on the military ship, both Phoenix and Big Pineapple glanced at Feng Luo.
Back then, Red Queen thought it was a bit weird; but now, with the facts presented in front of her, she was quite certain of this one more thing.
“Hah…” Feng Luo laughed but did not answer.
Neutron Star had a look of admiration on his face. After congratulating Feng Luo, he could not help but put his wandering thoughts into words, “War’s first and second players to awaken the Force are from Storm City. And they’re both Snipers. Could it be that Storm City has an advantage for Snipers to awaken the Force?” He said that in a joking manner.
After the news spread, many players thought about that seriously.
In the end, many gunner players changed into the Sniper profession, which ultimately increased the percentage of Sniper players by a few tenths of a percent.
It also increased the high-standard players in Storm City by a few tenths of a percent
