Online Game: My Decay Drives the Entire Server Crazy

Chapter 2 Infinite Decay! I completely wiped out those who were stealing monsters.As the white light dissipated, Lin Ye appeared in the bustling Novice Village No. 003.

The open space at the village entrance was packed like a can of sardines, filled with players who had just entered the game. Each one wore the basic cloth clothes provided by the system and clutched a rusted novice iron sword. They were charging like madmen toward the Wild Rabbit spawn points outside the village—the novice quest required ten rabbit legs, and whoever finished first to level up would gain the upper hand.

[System Notification: You have entered Novice Village No. 003. Current Level: 1. HP: 100. Attack Power: 1-3. Defense: 0. No skills.]

Lin Ye glanced at his attribute panel. It was a standard novice account, no different from any other player. However, he knew in his heart that holding the server’s only SSS-grade heaven-defying Talent was his greatest source of confidence.

He didn’t follow the crowd to fight over rabbits. Instead, he found a secluded corner and tentatively activated his Talent against a domestic hen pecking at the ground by the roadside.

[System Notification: Target is a non-malicious unit. Perpetual Energy Level Decay Talent cannot be triggered.]

As expected.

Lin Ye raised an eyebrow, now fully understanding the mechanics. The rules of this Talent were strictly defined; it truly only worked against malicious targets. This also quelled any thoughts of killing the innocent—not that he ever intended to bully ordinary people. His targets were always those blind, rotten bastards.

He turned and walked toward the Wild Rabbit spawn point at the village entrance. As he approached, he heard a burst of arrogant, overbearing cursing that stood out sharply from the noisy crowd.

”Get lost! Are you blind? Brother Kai has claimed all the rabbits in this area! If any blind fool dares to touch one, we’ll kill you back to level zero and make all your hard work go to waste!”

Three players were blocking the densest spawn area. The leader, a blonde warrior with the ID [Young Master Kai], was actually wearing a piece of green novice armor, and the iron sword in his hand emitted a faint glow. He had clearly just spent money to buy a novice gift pack, making him look out of place among the surrounding players in basic gear.

Behind him followed two Mage lackeys, conjuring small fireballs in their hands. They were hurling insults at several novice players trying to snatch kills, their voices dripping with disdain.

Those novice players were fuming but didn’t dare speak up. They could only huddle on the edges, eyes fixed on the spawning rabbits. If they were a second too slow, they would be hit by a Mage lackey’s fireball, losing both HP and experience.

”Brother Kai, these pathetic solo players are such an eyesore. Why don’t we just clear the area? It’ll save us the trouble while we level up!” one Mage lackey said flatteringly.

Young Master Kai sneered and cut down a newly spawned rabbit with his sword, causing his experience bar to jump slightly. He patted his armor and said arrogantly, ”What’s the rush? Let them watch us level up first. Once I hit Level 3, I’ll deal with them one by one. I’ll let them know that this game isn’t for broke losers!”

Lin Ye’s expression instantly turned cold.

What he detested most were scumbags like this who bullied novices just because they had spent a bit of money. Perfect. He would use these guys to see exactly how powerful his Decay Talent was.

Lin Ye didn’t say a word. He stepped forward directly, just as a plump Wild Rabbit spawned at his feet. He raised his hand and gave a light swing of his novice iron sword; the rabbit lost 3 HP, entering a critical state. With another strike, he successfully claimed the experience.

This move immediately enraged Young Master Kai.

”Fuck! Are you goddamn deaf? Didn’t you hear me say we’ve claimed this area?!” Young Master Kai led his two lackeys to block Lin Ye’s path. He pointed his iron sword at Lin Ye’s nose, his gaze fierce. ”Kneel and apologize, then hand over all your money. Otherwise, I won’t let you leave the Novice Village today. I’ll drop you back to level zero and make you delete your account and start over!”
