A game where you have to pay to win? But I have a lifespan roulette wheel!

Jiang Lin rides a little turtle.

Bring a maid.

This scene seemed quite jarring to the eyes of the Earthlings.

But in this hunting capital, this is not surprising at all.

The Hunting Capital – as the name suggests, this is a civilization that reveres hunting.

Ok.

The prey captured were either eaten, made into handicrafts, or used as slaves.

That's right.

Slavery existed in this city.

Looking around, people like Jiang Lin who ride animal mounts can only be considered to have some martial arts skills.

They are not considered superior people at all.

The truly superior person is one who rides on others.

For example, right now.

Everyone lowered their heads, and the roads were closed.

Because a very important person has arrived, reportedly a relative of the King of Hunting. (In this unique profession, few people have children, and relatives aren't necessarily one's own descendants; they could be descendants of one's siblings.)

"You're going to die! Get down and kneel down!"

Someone nearby kindly reminded Jiang Lin.

have to.

It's like encountering a Celestial Dragon who's willing to pay a fortune.

This kind of thing was actually expected. In a world where strength reigns supreme, there are places where human rights exist, but that's because the rulers are kind-hearted. With such a large population, it's not surprising that a few abnormal rulers emerge.

Why don't the people under a perverted ruler run away?

This is like asking any random elderly person why they don't travel abroad.

Many people may never even leave their province in their entire lives, let alone go abroad; not everyone has that many choices.

Kneeling is impossible.

Jiang Lin came here to take over this hunting capital, not to become a slave.

However, he won't jump out right away. He mainly wants to see the original culture and people of this city, since it's about to disappear.

You won't have the chance to experience it again in the future.

So~

Jiang Lin's choice is...

He immediately made himself and Baili Qingqiong invisible.

The royal relatives of this hunting capital weren't as extravagant as the Celestial Dragons, who wore fish tanks on their heads.

But that's where it ends.

In other aspects, there is basically no difference.

Slaves knelt on the ground as mounts, and people on both sides of the road had to kneel to greet them as they passed, while beautiful women served them.

Fortunately.

Jiang Lin was invisible; only a large tortoise was outside.

In this hunting capital, the villa tortoise, being an animal-shaped mount, isn't exactly an eye-catching one.

It went unnoticed by anyone.

Baili Qingqiong was also invisible, so he wouldn't be seen by that royal relative who insisted on pulling him back to his harem.

A stable transition.

Nothing happened.

Until the team leaves.

The people on both sides breathed a sigh of relief, looked up, and continued doing their own things.

"Is it really that exaggerated?"

Jiang Lin retrieved the villa and planned to take a good look around the city.

I was going to complain, since this is supposed to be a supernatural world, if I can't stand this injustice, I can just run away. But thinking about it carefully, the Celestial Dragons aren't exactly a normal world either.

It is precisely because of this extraordinary world that such extreme inequality exists.

Even in the ordinary world, blood can still be spilled five steps away.

In this extraordinary world, ordinary people can't even manage to spill blood five steps away.

"Captain, you seem to dislike the master-servant relationship?"

"Oh well, I can't help it, I'm just a kind-hearted person."

Actually, it's caused by the environment I grew up in; I've always lived in an ordinary environment.

Living in an era where everyone is equal, one naturally feels that everyone is equal.

If Jiang Lin had grown up in a different environment, such as a family with servants who instilled in him from a young age the idea that there are differences between people, he certainly wouldn't be the way he is now.

"Captain, but it's about you and me~"

Baili Qingqiong didn't say it out loud, but everyone understood what he meant.

Jiang Lin and the Lord of the Myriad Realms had a master-servant contract before, that was before.

"Aren't we equals now? I haven't even paid you for being my maid, so we're not even in an employment relationship."

indeed.

The matter of Baili Qingqiong wearing a maid's outfit.

It wasn't Jiang Lin who instructed them; they changed it themselves.

Jiang Lin considers Baili Qingqiong a friend, just like his relationship with the Ghost King.

Jiang Lin acknowledged this bond.

But how to handle it now depends entirely on his own mood.

"What! I'm not even a maid? No way! Captain, pay me my salary!"

"Then you can live in my villa, you can eat whatever I eat, and you'll pay for your living expenses!"

"Whoa!! Captain, what's wrong with you?!"

"I'll do it this way, bite me!"

"No."

"...Where did you learn that?"

I'm not telling you.

The two are arguing.

A child bumped into it.

Ok.

It crashed into the vast blue sky.

For just a fleeting moment, something rippled through the air.

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry."

The child apologized in a panic.

Then he discarded it.

Jiang Lin and Baili Qingqiong watched the child run away in a hurry.

Jiang Lin: "Wow, classic plot."

Ok.

That's right.

It's a story about a child bumping into something, stealing, and running away.

only.

The techniques are somewhat different.

Now it's a pay-to-win game world. Players have backpacks, and as long as you're a player, you basically put everything in your backpack, including commonly used items and weapons, which you put in the most convenient place.

As for money...

The pay-to-win game only has one currency.

That's lifespan. Lifespan is converted into lifespan points, which are displayed in the panel.

So~

Conventional thief methods won't work.

but!

There is a thief class in this game, and there are corresponding forms for each class, from the regular class to the ultimate class.

There might be a unique profession, but Jiang Lin hasn't encountered one yet.

Jiang Lin glanced at Baili Qingqiong.

She's not a player, she's a world boss.

"You stole it?"

Baili Qingqiong shook his head.

"If they steal my main body directly, they might be able to find something. I'm just an avatar. If they can steal lifespan points from me, they can just learn a clone technique to increase their lifespan."

"That's true."

Jiang Lin expressed his approval.

the other side.

Linda.

He was a low-level hoodlum in the hunting capital.

They might not even be considered at the bottom level.

At best, it can only be considered a small tool for low-level players.

Because~

She is not yet 18 years old and has not enabled the player panel.

They're not even considered players.

Although there is no anxiety about lifespan, there is also no way to extend lifespan.

Having parents is good for this kind of person.

If there are no parents, but there is a strong regime that provides basic humanitarian care, things are not so bad.

But ~

No~

These things are not found in the hunting capital, which is still at a relatively primitive level of civilization.

Someone like Linda, who is unwanted and was born in the game, couldn't even log out before obtaining a player identity.

If you're unlucky, you might starve to death on the streets.

If you're lucky, you might be spotted by a low-level player and become their tool for making money.

Linda doesn't have a profession, so naturally she can't use professional skills.

But ~

This is a game world where you have to pay to win, there's always a way.

For example, items that store skills, such as scrolls.

Let Linda become a medium for casting spells.

Or perhaps a skill could be inscribed on Linda's body.

There are always more ways than difficulties.

In short~

She is now a non-player individual capable of using the basic class-priority stealing skill.

Naturally~

Having these abilities doesn't come without a price.

She was required to make offerings to her superiors every day.
