nJack then turned his gaze toward the fox corpse as it began to glow with a pulsating mesmerizing orange glow.

n“You guys, your sacrifice wasn’t a waste. This is all thanks to you!” He sighed, grateful.

nWorld Boss Defeated!

nParticipated in Fox Subjugation!

nReceived Fleeting Fox Reward Box!

nJack waved the notifications away. Right now, he didn’t give a flying ** about the loot box, even if it was a good one.

nWhat would follow would be magnitudes better! Oh, and he was just waiting for the party to freaking begin! The orange energy kept getting richer and richer, almost as fast as the 1%!

nIt grew and grew some more until it got utterly out of hand. It even engulfed the entire New Leaf area, as it became as orange as American cheddar— and it was **ing great.

n━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

nMany players couldn’t help but freeze, utterly flabbergasted:

n“What the hell is this? Is there a new even starting?!”

n“Already?! Day 1, we defeated a bloodthirsty Chicken wave..”

n“Day 2 we faced the flesh-hungry wolves led by the Demon King….”

n“Still Day 2, and now this?! How the heck are there so many events?!”

nAs for the monsters, they too reacted to the orange light:

n“Cluck—Cluck—Cluck…”— Chicken playing dead.

n“Kon—Kon…” — Fox diving into a bush, its ass sticking out.

n“Awooo! Awooo!” — Wolf howling non-stop.

nThere was perhaps only one man that not only remained calm about the situation but just so happened to be near tons of players when it happened.

n“I see, hahaha. This sure is fast! This means that he’ll be visiting soon, hahaha!” The training instructor laughed out loud, not even bothering with the braves watching intently.

n“S-sir? Do you have any idea what is happening?”

n“Can you please enlighten us? Pretty please!”

n“Hehe, alright. Consider this a special lesson. Do you all see this blade of grass right there?”

n“No, Sir, I can only see orange, nothing else!”

n“…..-_- Just give it a minute. It should rescind.”

nExactly a minute later, the lesson could resume.

n“Alright, this blade of grass represents the New Leaf Village, plain and forest. Do you all follow?” Igor asked, and they all nodded. “Now, picture that every other blade of grass in this plain is just like us…or perhaps different.”

n“There are that many villages?!” One player gasped in realization. “What about that orange light?”

n“Hehe, this is what happens when two blades of grass connect.” Igor chuckled, stopping his lecture there.

nThe results of that massive bombshell of a revelation were very varied:

n“Grass touching? What is he talking about? That sounds gay….”

n“So, circling back, what was the grass again?”

n“Oh my **ing god! Seriously?! HAHAHA!”

nOne began laughing like a madman, soon followed by a few others…even if most just faked having understood.

n“What did you understand? Please tell us, oh wise sage!”

n“You see, this game is a multiverse and—” But a system announcement instantly stopped his explanation short.

nThe land trembles, the foxes cowers, a new adventure appears!

nDemon King Jack’O has opened the path toward a new world!

n“Mighty Dragons’ Debt = 15 G Please Pay ASAP!”

n—

nThe players felt their blood boil at the first announcement.

n“Holy **, this is the sound of new quests!”

n“Don’t we already have plenty to do here?”

n“I don’t care. It said a new adventure has appeared! It ought to be good!”

n—

nThey found the second one natural yet couldn’t help but chuckle.

n“Of course, the Demon King did it!”

n“Yep, if it’s him, then it’s totally expected.”

n“From now on, I’m his fan for sure! He freaking rocks!”

n“Now I’m picturing the idiots that called him a fake, haha!”

n—

nThen there was the last announcement. It was…peculiar.

n“This…it’s a custom message from the user, right?”

n“This would be worth so much in ad revenue!”

n“Yet, he uses it for debt collection?!”

n“Hell yeah, **ing legend!”

n—

nThe Mighty Dragons became livid upon hearing the news. This was one hell of an ultimatum! Either they paid him, or they would be **ed. It was already day 2, and he already somehow had access to All chat announcements!

n—

nThe Mighty Wolves cheered and laughed, rejoicing at his success!

n“I knew he’d win it clutch!”

n“This is huge! Today we made history!”

n“Hell yeah! Plus, we got some sweet Fleeting Boxes!”

n“Wait, what do you guys think is in there?!”

n“Loot! That’s my answer!”

n“Thanks, captain obvious.” -_-”

n“You’re welcome.”

n━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

nAs for Jack, he was staring straight at the wall of the hollow.

nAfter the light, an orange-glowing passageway had opened in the wall. It was a tunnel that seemed to be heading quite far away. This thing seemed even longer than the tree was large.

nIt had also brought a few system messages:

n Created a link with a new world!

n 200 Reputation New Leaf Village

n 50 Reputation Greenwood County

n Acquired Title: The First Explorer 10% Regen when in a foreign world!

nThis was perhaps one of the unique points of Infinite. Everything was interconnected in one way or another, rendering the multiverse quite interesting.

nAny location that one could find in the game’s lore would eventually be accessible. Well, not that it would necessarily be easy.

nFor now, he sat on the side, taking out the Fleeting Fox loot box. It was covered with orange fur and looked like one of those horrendous fluffy dice that used to be popular.

n“Now, let’s see what we got. RNGesus, please bless this lowly one!” He whispered a small prayer. “Please be gear, please be gear!”

nDing! ~ 24%: Epic Grading! Wow!

n Fleeting Fox Paws

n Fleeting Fox Fur

nOh well, only materials. It wasn’t good, but it could have been worse.

nIt couldn’t be helped as the Fox Progenitor was a Boss that would naturally respawn and wander the forest (now that its lair had a huge portal in it). Since one could farm it every day, the rewards would be lower in general.

nAlso, they had really struggled a lot because of their low level, but that was an issue on their part that wouldn’t affect the rewards. Jack nodded satisfied while sending messages:

n– Jack’O: I’ll be going on a journey very soon. Try not to die too much while I’m gone and keep training diligently.

n– Bublegum: What are you talking about?! I’m always dying while trying to save your ass! It’s the second time with that one Fox Progenitor already!

n– Jack’O: What about the time you got killed by the Mighty Dragons?

n– Bubblegum: I was tagging along with you too. It still counts! Actually, now that you’ll be gone, I’ll be the strongest player in the village, right?!”

n– Jack’O: Perhaps….

nJack wouldn’t admit it. What if she became too arrogant?!

nHe couldn’t help but find that something was amiss. Where was the little wolf?! It should have already respawned by now! He couldn’t help but worry a little…

n━━━━━━ POV ━━━━━━━

nA small creature suddenly spawned in the complete darkness, curiously observing its surroundings— or it tried.

nWhy was everything so dark? The small wolf realized that it probably had its eyes closed. It focused and opened them as wide as possible, but it barely did anything. What?!

nIt was its first time being confronted with such a strange place, and it couldn’t understand anything that was happening.

nBut, there was worse. Where was its powerful and wise master?! He was gone! It began calling for him. But no matter what it did, its master was nowhere to be found!

n“Woo!” (Puzzled)

n“Woo!” (Worried)

n“Woo!” (Sad)

n“Woo!” (Resolute)

nIts tiny heart couldn’t help but beat faster in its chest as it feared the worst! Ah, it had been eaten, right! They had been fighting that big fox and then….

nBut how had it arrived here? This was so weird!

nThat’s when the entire realm began to ripple. Raising its head, the little wolf froze as it saw four enormous divine eyes staring straight at it.

nIt began to shake as there was no way it could defeat it!

nThe little wolf pup wanted to run far away. It wanted to hide from this monster! But then it suddenly remembered the lessons its master had told it: It had to train until it could intimidate dragons!

nIt had no idea what this thing above its head was, but neither did it know what a dragon looked like.

nAt that moment, it knew what it had to do. It raised its head high up in the air, even using its little paws to stand even higher. Then it gave the glowing things the best “looking-down on you” look it could!

n“Woo!” (Heroic)

n“Woo!” (Excited)

n“Woo!” (Resolute)

nAs it saw the thing move away, it knew it had succeeded! It began chasing after the eyes without hesitation, even howling at them!

nFor a few minutes, a courageous puppy kept bullying the actual god of death. Of course, this was only because the being had felt playful, but the scene was still extremely comical.

nBut, eventually, after a hard-fought battle of non-stop howling, the little one ran out of energy. At that moment, it wished so much to see its master!

nThat’s when purple light surrounded it as it disappeared from that eerily dark place…

n━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

nThe first thing it did as it spotted its master was to run in his arms.

n“Welcome back.”

n“Woo!” (Happy)

n“How was your first time in the void? Not too bad?”

n“Woo!” (Confused)

n“Don’t worry about it. It’s normal

n“Woo!” (Glad)

nJack began to pet the little wolf, but as he touched it, there was a spark of purple energy that glued itself to him. That’s when a fantastic system prompt showed up:

n Your pet has gained the attribute courage 10

nWhat?! This was possible?! This was a hidden stat that was extremely hard to get! It seemed that courageously facing the Fox Progenitor had brought it great benefits!

n“Alright, are you ready, partner?” Jack asked confidently.

n“Woo!”

nA man and his wolf steadied their hearts and took a step forward, straight into a new world…

n━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

nA

/N Just finished an 8 chapters mass release on CA. Now, the plan is to Mass release for RPP next ^_^v Get as many chaps as possible for next month and do one OP chapter drop!

nCreator’s Thought

nI wanted to unlock this new dimension as fast as possible. What was it? Honestly, I wasn’t sure myself. I wasn’t playing back when the game was initially launched. I knew what it would eventually look like, but not its current appearance and features.

n
