Apocalypse: Infinite Breaker Online-Chapter 40: Ruthless Anticipation of Drama

One hour was left until it was time for Axir and others who logged in since the day began to log out.

In the Seraphel Kingdom’s plaza, Axir and others appeared.

The players there saw their names, and a commotion immediately began.

But no player dared to approach or annoy them.

Nobody would mess with a level 177, and a bunch of level 154 when the majority of players had yet to even reach level 30.

The group began walking towards the royal palace while looking at various things.

"The leaderboard is looking interesting."

"Some fellows must have acquired a good deck or cards or a good combo, and helped their friends or family level up as well." Axir blinked, his eyes reflecting names. ’Interesting. I don’t know any name except for Darkon.’

There were many skilled people in the world, and those who take risks and farm in high-level areas with a good strategy can level up faster. Especially if they triggered quests to get cards or got lucky drops. And it was just day 2, so there would be many more.

’The time rewound, but luck is fickle. The people who got lucky in a past life might not necessarily get lucky this time. Ultimately, this is a different reality.’ Axir’s eyes glinted. ’Adding the new development of Abyss and God Factions in the equation...this run will be far more interesting.’

’And I have to remain top of its interest.’

Selena and others were not even in the top 30. It was normal. In the past, they were never even in the top 100.

And Axir had ignored all the messages he got from Selena and others while he was in the Hidden Area—Underworld.

He just looked at them now and saw tons of messages.

[Axir: Sorry, babe. I was stuck doing a quest with other people, and then we were trapped in a level 300 area. Of course, with me, we survived and leveled up crazily.]

[Selena: Yeah, you leveled crazily. But now only one hour is left. We did a lot of things and reached level 39. Got some quests, and got cards as well.]

[Axir: Good job. Cards are more important. Leveling is easy.]

[Selena: True, you can just bring us to some high-level area, and we can grind to level up fast again. Anyway, will you be able to meet us before we log out, or will we meet outside?]

[Axir: Are you missing my touch already?]

[Selena: Of course, darling~]

[Axir: Where are you all?]

[Selena: We just returned from a quest, so let’s meet at the Plaza.]

[Axir: Alright, I’ll bring you all to two high-level Elite Dungeons, and we’ll clear them before the deadline. I’ll give you an opportunity to get a unique deck.]

"Folks," Axir spoke to Siddha and others. "I have no business here anymore, so I’ll take my leave. Only one hour is left, so if you go now, you will get free extended time in the game because you won’t be logged out forcefully while you are in the ancient ground."

"That’s pretty cool."

"Well then, see you outside."

"Axir, take care of Mio. She must be bored out of her mind only training there." Aunt Kira wryly smiled. "It’s been 11 hours."

"Yep. Leave it to me. I’ll make sure she has a lot of fun." Axir smiled. "I’ll take her around the world."

...

Axir teleported to the Suryax Kingdom and met up with Selena and others.

He brought them to a level 100 area first, where he found an Elite Dungeon, acquiring 10 stat points.

The level 100 Elite Dungeon leveled up everyone except for Axir, who was over-leveled.

"What are your stats, Axir?" Aoi curiously asked.

"Here." Axir distributed the stat points he had saved and then shared his status with everyone in the party.

[Axir Grimspire]

Level: 177

Power Level: 377,483

<Basic Stats: 0>

"Holy crap!" Yuta shouted. "What the fuck?"

"What are those big numbers in the parentheses?" Jason raised his eyebrows.

"What in the world is that Power Level? Insane." Kazuo’s face turned blank.

Selena blinked. "Your gears...look different."

"No way gears can boost that much," Lexi said speechlessly. "Right?"

Axir chuckled. "It’s the gears. My equipment is Prime-tier, and Prime equipment gives percentage boosts of stats rather than flat numbers."

"Insane..." Aoi muttered. "So you are basically a god on Earth. You can do whatever you want, and nobody can do shit to you."

"Correct." Axir grinned. "Now let’s not waste more time and go get the second Elite Dungeon. Only 27 minutes are left."

"But why are you not using the Mysterious Deck?" Kazuo asked. "Isn’t that gonna give us a good deck?"

"Nope. There’s a better way to use it." Axir smiled. "That way is the reason I got my Unique deck, Shivanta Sunborn Artist."

"And when were you going to tell us that?" Jason rolled his eyes.

"Whenever I feel like." Axir flatly smiled, his words making the atmosphere a bit damp.

"That’s right! Guildmaster can tell us whenever he wants to." Kazuo snorted at Jason. "You don’t say anything."

"Yeah, yeah, I was just joking." Jason chuckled, minimizing the awkwardness.

"Alright, let’s go."

The group flew away with Axir’s help and swiftly arrived at the second location, a level 150 Elite Dungeon.

The 10 points he got were put into the Constitution.

After easily clearing the dungeon and gaining a second Mysterious Deck, only 2 minutes remained until it was time to log out.

"So, we have two Mysterious Decks. That means two people will get an opportunity to enter an ancient ground where they can acquire a Unique deck, tailor-made by the game based on their experience and endurance in the ancient ground."

Everyone’s eyes shone.

"That sounds dope!" Kazuo shouted. "Boss, please give me the opportunity."

"It’s up to him, so stop begging." Aoi rolled her eyes.

But everyone was practically thirsting.

The place where Axir gets his strong deck? Hell Yeah!

The most excited was Jason, but he also tried to remain the calmest. ’This is the chance. If I get a deck as strong as Axir, my position will become better. He won’t give me a chance this time, but since he told us about this, I’ll eventually get my unique deck.’

’I need it.’ Yuta clenched his fist. ’If I get a strong deck, I’ll have an easier time getting Lexi. There’s no competition, so I should propose to her once I get the deck.’

[Yuta: Brother, I’ll do whatever you say, so can you choose me? I know one spot will go to Selena, but I will be in your debt forever if you give me a chance.]

Axir’s eyes coldly glinted with ruthless anticipation.

"Selena, teleport to the Suryax Kingdom quickly. We don’t have much time. I’ll choose others later, but for now, you’ll enter the Ancient Ground, and you won’t be logged out until you finish it."

"Got it."

Axir and Selena vanished.

The others blinked and then quickly teleported as well.

Axir grabbed her hand and flew towards the palace.

"And there he goes with your girl," Yuta spoke as he stood next to Jason.

Lexi was biting her nails. ’Why give her the chance?! I told him she is pretending.’

’I have to do something...’ Aoi was brainstorming. ’He already has Selena, but if I expose her and take her place, I’ll get pampered and get the benefits, or...wait...instead of exposing her and making a mess, I can seduce him naturally. Yes. That’s best instead of creating annoying drama. Secret life is more interesting.’
