I'm a God in an Online Game

He was a poor loser, but he was no miser. If he got it from a game, he would use it in the game without the slightest heartache. It was just a game! What was most important was his happiness!

“Alright. Please head to the skyline lounge of Black Tortoise City’s Fragrant Pavilion to complete the transaction,” the waiter replied.

Meng Jingtian left the forum and returned to the game. His character, through use of the ‘automatic path-finding’ ability, was already close to the coordinates provided by Cai Minghou.

But he saw no sign of Cai Minghou. On the contrary, there was another group here that was grinding levels.

Opening up his messages, he saw that Cai Minghou had sent him a message two minutes ago saying that the player who was his big brother in the game, Long Yuqian, had come over with a party and sent him back to the spawn point, and that Meng Jingtian shouldn’t go over.

“Long Yuqian?” Meng Jingtian raised his head and squinted. As expected, one of the players was Long Yuqian.

Meng Jingtian had had the chance to meet this fellow, but he had sent him back to the spawn point with a single skill. He didn’t have much of a deep impression of him, and if Cai Minghou hadn’t mentioned it, he wouldn’t have even thought about who this fellow was.

As Meng Jingtian noticed this group, the group also noticed him.

Long Yuqian, who was busy fighting a monster, turned his head to Meng Jingtian upon being prompted by a group member. His pupils instantly constricted, and he coldly said, “Truly, enemies meeting on a narrow road!”

Meng Jingtian might have had little impression of him, but he couldn’t forget Meng Jingtian.

Instantly being killed after just exchanging a few sentences had left a very deep impression on him.

“I don’t know if this road is narrow. I only know that I’m sending you back to spawn!” Meng Jingtian declared, taking out Stupa.

“Let me see how long you can stay cocky!” Long Yuqian frowned as he glanced at his group members.

Immediately, a fat baldy stepped forward and threatened, “You still dare to act cocky in front of Brother Long? Kid, it seems you don’t want to stick around in Black Tortoise City anymore.” He swung his tiger-headed saber at Meng Jingtian.

“Hey! Don’t you think this guy looks familiar? He looks like that guy targeted by Godslayer Hall, Meng Jingtian! That was his name, right?” another group member whispered.

“It’s him? Godslayer Hall has failed three times now. Except with the guildmaster of Forgotten Sorrows Island, Godslayer Hall has never failed so many times before.” The others instantly began to whisper in alarm.

At this time, Meng Jingtian smiled in disdain at the fatty and his swinging saber. He had long ago seen through the skill’s trajectory. Though he appeared to barely dodge the skill, in actuality, he was in complete control over the situation.

“Let me teach you how to use a saber!” After dodging the skill, Meng Jingtian swiftly took two steps forward, raised Stupa high, and slashed down. A high damage number instantly popped up.

“-12042”

But this was just an ordinary attack.

The fatty had a ton of HP, and even an attack dealing more than ten thousand damage had only taken off a quarter of his HP.

In the early stages of the game, a DPS player wouldn’t have so much HP. This guy had probably focused his stat distribution and equipment on being a meat shield, so he probably didn’t have very high DPS.

“What are you chattering about? Get in there! What does it matter if he’s Meng Jingtian? Aren’t there seven of us? One skill from each of you should be enough to kill him!” Long Yuqian shouted at the other group members.

The others were convinced by this argument and immediately used their strongest skills on Meng Jingtian.

“A disordered mob!” Meng Jingtian glanced at them and couldn’t help but laugh.

There was no coordination between them, and they were treating him like he was a boss. Without caring what skills he had, they just threw skills at him.

But the problem was that he wasn’t a boss!

He had already used Black Tortoise True Body to deal with Golden Boy and Jade Girl, and the cooldown of attached skills for equipment were longer than ordinary skills. Though the skill was still on cooldown, he still had one other protective skill.

The Forgotten Ring’s Instant Movement skill!

Meng Jingtian disappeared in a flash. The majority of player skills were aimed, so that pile of skill all crashed into empty ground.

And with this, Long Yuqian’s group no longer had any ‘big moves’.

“Divine Punishment!” It was now Meng Jingtian’s turn to attack. The moment he appeared, he used this skill on Long Yuqian.

A beam of white lightning descended from the heavens on Long Yuqian’s head.

While his group could be considered an elite group among regular players, to Meng Jingtian, they truly were a disorderly mob.

They had neither coordination nor any sense of positioning. With this one Divine Punishment, Long Yuqian and the three players standing around him were sent back to spawn.

The remaining three were frightened out of their wits, and turned to flee.

Meng Jingtian’s eyes focused, and he strode forward. Using the Wind-Sweeping Sleeve to increase his attack speed, he swung Stupa around and swiftly took down the remaining few players with ordinary attacks.

Several minutes later, a panting Cai Minghou rushed over with two silver attendants.

Whew! Whew!

“Brother Tian, where… where are they?”

Meng Jingtian’s reply to his previous message had been short: “I’m here already.”

Cai Minghou had rushed back from the spawn point with reinforcements, but now that he had arrived, where was everyone?

Had Long Yuqian just killed him and left so that they didn’t meet?

“Sent back to spawn!” Meng Jingtian was seated on a nearby rock, drinking from the jars of wine that Long Yuqian had left behind.

He threw aside the jar of wine and said, “Why is the taste so weird? Right, let’s go and do the mission!”

“That’s realgar wine! It can confuse the mobs in this Spirit Snake Cave. It’s for grinding!” Cai Minghou’s mouth twitched as he answered.

“Did you really kill them? Weren’t there seven of them?” Cai Minghou looked uncertainly at Meng Jingtian.

“Then do you think your Brother Tian is just emptily boasting?” Meng Jingtian led the way to Cool Breeze Camp, glancing back at Cai Minghou as he spoke.

“That’s not what I meant! It’s just, just, I was surprised!” Cai Minghou scratched his head.

“Brother Tian, I know that you’re not bad at games, but didn’t you have a rather hard time in the early stages of the last few games you played? How is it that you can suddenly challenge an entire group in this game?”

“Luck!” Meng Jingtian paused for a moment and emotionally sighed.

“Ding! Wang Sisi has invited you to join a group!” When the pair arrived at Cool Breeze Camp, they discovered that there was already a group grinding mobs here.

Upon seeing the two, the group had even sent them an invitation to join.

...

Meng Jingtian hesitated, exchanged a glance with Cai Minghou, and then joined the group.

This group already had seventeen people, their average level being around 25 and 26. If it wasn’t a guild group, then it was probably a group consisting of elite unaffiliated players.
