The most difficult game in history has descended upon the world, and players can obtain a random talent as soon as they log in.
Jiang Hao starts with a Supreme-level talent: as long as it is ...
Jiang Hao pointed to the three characters on the banner and said, "That character is written wrong."
The city lord of Jinling City showed an awkward expression for a moment, but said without batting an eye, "That's right, it's three! We are all human, and our cultures are similar. Don't try to fool me."
Upon hearing the word "human race," Jiang Hao suddenly remembered something. Regardless of whether their banner was correct or not, he asked, "Which five races are involved in the Five Races War for Supremacy?"
The city lord of Jinling City was taken aback by Jiang Hao's question and said after a moment of surprise, "Shouldn't you have asked what the title of King's Warrior is for first?"
"I can't help it, I'm more interested in the five races now."
"Alright, I wasn't supposed to reveal this, but since you're a Samsung Warrior now, I'll tell you."
Jiang Hao smiled, too lazy to correct the city lord's mistake, and put on an attentive expression.
The city lord of Jinling looked around and said, "Let's go to the city lord's mansion in Jinling."
So Jiang Hao, along with Ice Queen, Tian Sheng Wo Cai, and Jun Lin Tian Xia, followed the City Lord of Jinling City through the teleportation array in the newbie village to the square of the Priest's Cathedral. As they walked towards the City Lord's Mansion, Jiang Hao noticed a significant increase in the number of players from Jinling City, but he didn't see any players from other newbie villages; they were all from his own.
The group walked south to the right of the cathedral, passed through the main entrance of the military affairs hall to the west of the government affairs hall, and continued south. After passing through the corridor under the sky dock, they finally arrived at the city lord's mansion of Jinling City.
The main gate of the city lord's mansion was magnificent and awe-inspiring, but once inside, one found nothing particularly special.
The simple three-courtyard house lacked any magnificent buildings, elegant pavilions, or flowing streams, let alone rare or precious flowers and plants. If one hadn't seen the imposing gate earlier, it would appear quite shabby compared to the grand family mansions depicted in television dramas.
This city lord of Jincheng is quite interesting.
Jiang Hao followed the city lord of Jinling City to the backyard, passed through a small door, and suddenly the view opened up before him.
On the stone platform, which is more than ten meters wide, there is nothing else except a stone table and a few stone benches in the middle, surrounded by a fence.
Unexpectedly, the City Lord's Mansion of Jinling City was built on the edge of a cliff. Beyond the stone railing at the edge of the cliff, one can see the boundless blue sea below. The sea breeze blowing gently from high above carries the unique coolness of the sea, but without the damp saltiness of the sea breeze, making one feel refreshed and relaxed.
Jiang Hao looked to both sides and saw another lower platform to the west, where a large area was covered with neat courtyards. Soldiers dressed simply were moving back and forth in the square-like courtyards. It must be the rest area for the soldiers of Jinling City.
Below the cliff to the east lies a huge port. A dozen iron ships are docked at the pier south of the shipyard, and soldiers are loading and unloading cargo in an endless stream, creating a bustling scene.
"You wouldn't have guessed, would you? Jinling City, nestled among mountains, has such an excellent deep-water port?"
Jiang Hao nodded. It's undeniable that Sirio was a truly remarkable talent! It's a pity that because he failed to obtain the city-building fee, he ultimately sacrificed himself and his men to the monster.
The city lord of Jinling seemed to recall Sirio, a hint of regret in his expression.
Standing on the stone railing of the platform, the city lord of Jinling City finally answered Jiang Hao's question.
"There are five major races in the Spirit Ruins: the human race, the dragon race, the deep-sea race, the beast race, and the jackal race. As for the other races, large and small, they are merely vassals of these five major races, so let's not mention them."
"Among them, the human race has a close relationship with the dragon race, while they are at odds with the beast race and the gnolls. As for the deep-sea race, they neither help either side nor the other, their stance wavering between the two. They will help whichever side offers more."
Surprisingly, there was no skeleton race among them. Jiang Hao asked, somewhat taken aback, "Where is the skeleton race?"
Upon hearing this, the city lord of Jinling City's face immediately turned grim. It was as if their madness was still vivid in his mind's eye.
"The Skeleton Clan is quite unique. They didn't originally belong to the Spirit Ruins, yet they were able to enter. No one knows where they came from or what their purpose is. Wherever they appear, regardless of race, devastation ensues. Since the five clans sealed their entrance two hundred years ago, they have vanished without a trace. I never expected that now..."
The city lord of Jinling seemed to recall something terrifying, and was still feeling lingering fear.
Jiang Hao was somewhat puzzled. His second skill, Summoning Space, always summoned skeletons. At first, he thought it was because of his necromancer profession, but now, after listening to the description from the city lord of Jinling City, coupled with the detailed description of the skill, an unbelievable idea unconsciously entered his mind.
Could it be that his summoning space is connected to the space where the skeleton monster resides?
Holy crap, this joke has gone way too far!
Jiang Hao suddenly had an idea: he had to find a way to enter the summoning space and take a look, even if it was just in a game.
Otherwise, he wouldn't be able to sleep in real life either.
What if the city lord of Jinling City's talk about world fusion is true? Wouldn't he be sitting on a volcano about to erupt?
But there was something even more important at this moment. So Jiang Hao asked, "You said that as long as you obtain the title of King's Warrior, you won't have to run away anymore. What exactly is the use of this King's Warrior title?"
Jiang Hao had barely finished asking the question when he saw Jun Lin Tianxia and the others looking at him and laughing. The vomit on their faces was still there, dried and untouched, yet they didn't seem to find it disgusting.
Jiang Hao took a few steps back and said, "What are you laughing at?"
"I was born to be rich," he said, pointing to the top of his head and laughing. "Dad, Dad, I know! The title of 'Four-Star King Warrior' increases attribute values, 50,000 strength per level! Look at my health bar, over ten million HP!"
The city lord of Jinling was taken aback and hurriedly asked Tian Sheng Wo Cai, "What four-star? What fifty thousand?"
"It's the four-star King's Warrior title! Each level increases strength by 50,000 points. I'm level 19 now, and my strength has increased by 950,000. When my older brother arrives in Jinling City, I'll beat the crap out of him!"
Like a bolt from the blue, it struck the head of the City Lord of Jinling City. Even the usually mature and composed Guardian Mingdu's smiling face turned blank.
"You...you..."
The city lord of Jinling pointed a trembling finger at Jiang Hao, stammering for a long time without being able to utter a complete sentence.
