I'm a God in an Online Game

Sun Yaohai’s Challenge

Now that everything was confirmed, Meng Jingtian’s main quest mission was on a positive trend. But as the construction of the temple would take some time, the mission did not immediately complete.

Under Ma Fangxing’s command, a group of villagers had gathered in the center of Cool Breeze Village and had begun construction on the temple. As a player, Meng Jingtian could see a countdown at the base of the temple indicating that three days were left.

Cai Minghou and Wang Sisi had weird looks on their faces as Meng Jingtian conversed with Ma Fangxing. Mobs had turned into NPCs and were even building a temple for a player. What in the… Were they playing the same game?

Once he had settled the details of the temple with Ma Fangxing, Meng Jingtian turned to the slack-jawed pair and snapped his fingers in front of their faces. “OK! It’s settled. Let’s head back to the city. I have a few things to take care of!”

“Do you have a mission?” Let me help!” Wang Sisi quickly came to her senses and smiled, not asking about all the unreasonable things that had just occurred.

“There’s no need!” Meng Jingtian shook his head and began to head back to Black Tortoise City.

“I’m going to hand in the mission! Call me if you need anything!” Cai Minghou waved his hand and said goodbye.

But Wang Sisi did not have that sort of self-awareness. With no intention of leaving, she followed Meng Jingtian to the Fragrant Pavilion.

“I heard that the Fragrant Pavilion has two main courses that can boost your basic stats by 50% for two hours. They’re considered essential luxury goods for training. After we’re done eating, why don’t we go grinding?”

“That’s not necessary. I’m going to Fragrant Pavilion for another matter, not to invite you to a meal,” Meng Jingtian callously refused.

Wang Sisi’s face went stiff. She wanted to say more, but then she saw Sun Yaohai come out and stand in front of the pair.

“Kid, since you’re so capable, do you dare to accept my challenge in the arena?” Sun Yaohai said to Meng Jingtian, not even looking at Wang Sisi.

Sun Yaohai had already been very close to Wang Sisi, almost on the verge of confirming their relationship, but Meng Jingtian’s sudden appearance had made Wang Sisi have a change of heart.

This left Sun Yaohai rather depressed, but there was nothing he could do. After quarreling with Wang Sisi, he had left.

Afterward, he couldn’t help but complain to his friends out of melancholy.

But one of his friends commented, “You just handed over a woman that you just got to another person? Are you even still a man?” In this emotionally agitated state, he saw Meng Jingtian and Wang Sisi once more walking together, and impulsively rushed over to challenge him.

“That’s not necessary! My time is very precious and is not to be wasted on boring things like this.” Meng Jingtian glanced at Sun Yaohai before pushing him aside and entering the Fragrant Pavilion.

Sun Yaohai froze, and then his eyes blazed with even more anger. Was this kid underestimating him?

“It’s just an arena match, right? You won’t lose equipment or experience if you lose, so why are you so afraid?” Sun Yaohai once more stood in front of Meng Jingtian and spread apart his arms to block him.

“Annoying!” Meng Jingtian finally looked him in the eye and frowned.

“Then fight with me! I want this woman to see that her eyesight is lacking! What’s so good about only knowing how to fight monsters? In the end, it’s still just a game between players!” Sun Yaohai refused to back down and yelled louder, causing several people to turn their heads.

“Haaa!” Meng Jingtian sighed. “I already said that it wasn’t necessary, so why seek to humiliate yourself?”

A thick bolt of white lightning descended from the skies, instantly sending Sun Yaohai and his bold and pompous words back to the spawn point.

As the crowd watched in stupefaction, Meng Jingtian called over a Fragrant Pavilion waiter, asked for directions to the skyline lounge, and then headed up to the second floor.

Wang Sisi’s eyes flashed like stars, and then she hastily followed. Affectionately grabbing Meng Jingtian by the arm, she said, “I’m sorry! I didn’t think he would be so annoying.”

Meng Jingtian reached out and brushed off Wang Sisi’s hand, looking at her seriously. “In truth, this sort of closeness from you is very annoying. We just happened to do a mission together. I hope that you don’t get any other ideas.”

After saying this, he turned around, entered the skyline lounge, and closed the door.

Wang Sisi stood there in a daze, her eyes in disbelief.

Who would be so unperturbed in a game when a beautiful girl threw herself into his chest?

It was just a game! There was no need to be responsible. Didn’t everyone want to play a game alongside a beautiful girl?

Was this guy a ‘sage’ or gay? Wang Sisi angrily clenched her fists, staring at the door as her eyes blazed with ‘the flames of war’.

She didn’t believe that she couldn’t ‘conquer’ this man!

“What information does guest wish to buy?” Inside the skyline lounge was a player with a scholarly and refined air.

The skyline lounge was a private room that Bai Xiaosheng had taken a long-term reservation on. Each day, it welcomed countless people who had come to buy information. These words were basically the opening remarks made by all the waiters tasked with this duty.

But when he looked up and saw Meng Jingtian’s ID, the waiter smiled and said, “So it was our major client! The information is ready. Do you wish to make the trade now?”

“This is fifty thousand gold coins!” Meng Jingtian didn’t worry that an organization of this size would deceive him, so he immediately handed over fifty thousand gold coins.

A few moments later, the waiter sent a private message which contained the locations of all the assassins of Godslayer Hall around Black Tortoise City.

“Every ten minutes, I will update the coordinates. Happy to be working with you!” The waiter shook Meng Jingtian’s hand.

“Golden Boy and Jade Girl! In ‘Grand Desolation’, you made me fear for my life. Now, it’s time for me to return the favor!” After shaking the waiter’s hand, Meng Jingtian turned and left, all the while muttering to himself.

Pa!

The player, whose ID was Li Si, opened a folding fan and stood up, smiling. “Interesting. Someone wants to move against Godslayer Hall! Big news!”

“Boss, you want me to investigate this news?” another player asked Li Si, emerging from behind a screen.

This player was the real ‘waiter’ in charge of this area.

“Of course! I suspect that Godslayer Hall has gotten themselves involved in something extremely troublesome this time! This is definitely big news!” Li Si raised an eyebrow and smiled.

After leaving Fragrant Pavilion, Meng Jingtian headed straight for Black Panther Cliff. According to the information he had just bought, this was where Golden Boy and Jade Girl were.

Godslayer Hall had already attempted to kill him three times, and at the third time, it had even been a pair of old enemies. For now, he would put his missions aside and have a match with Godslayer Hall.

When Meng Jingtian arrived at Black Panther Cliff, Golden Boy and Jade Girl were working together to kill a silver boss, the Black Panther King.

This was a Level 30 silver boss, and for ordinary players at the current stage of the game, twenty players would have to group up to ensure that they wouldn’t wipe. But Golden Boy and Jade Girl had already brought down the Black Panther King to a sliver of HP.
