Omnipotent Overlord

Recalling Ralerna’s nickname, Ye Li couldn’t help but find the irony in her current situation. ‘Aren’t I an abandoned woman too?’

‘Here I am, about to die, so why am I thinking such pointless things?’

‘Eh?’

‘Why don’t I feel anything?’

Ye Li opened her eyes to see Ralerna swinging her club over as someone was running with her in his arms.

It was…

“Vice-chief Li!”

Ye Li glanced at his name tag and cried in joy.

Li Mo saved her.

A moment later and she’d be a smear on the ground.

Bam~

Bam~

Bam~

Ye Li saw Ralerna charge like made after Li Mo, but she just couldn’t catch up. 

To her shock, Ye Li found the white geared Vice-chief Li to be far faster than even the blue geared Zheng Lin.

Vice-chief Li was a whole lot faster than even Ralerna.

There was no need for fancy movements since Li Mo’s speed outclassed his enemy’s. All he had to do was just run and he’d be out of her attack and shock wave range.

Ralerna gasped on the club and Li Mo left Ye Li back at the crumbled bonfire before attacking Ralerna from the back. 

Li Mo’s attacks were plain. Poking with the wooden sword. But Ye Li clearly saw how each poke dropped Ralerna’s health bar by a good chunk. ‘Just how many times is that Zheng Lin’s power?’

To be fair, Li Mo was only in a bit of a pickle when he entered the Forest of Ruin. Afterward, along with increased levels and stats, he didn’t feel an ounce of threat, even when surrounded by thirty orcs.

Li Mo’s stats had gone well beyond a level 20 player with golden gear. It allowed him to cruise through Forest of Ruin.

Ralerna recovered and did what she knew best, bashing. But what Ye Li saw made her jaw drop. 

Vice-chief Li neither ran nor dodged. He just stood there and blocked. Ralerna’s club came smashing again and again, but the damage was negligible.

Why would he ever run when he had such a strong defense?

‘It must be…’

Ye Li’s heart was beating out of her chest.

‘For me?’

‘This is a true man!’

The rest of the battle was a foregone conclusion. Ralerna could not harm Li Mo so her death was guaranteed.

“Ugh~”

Ralerna let out a groan as the last drop of health was squeezed out of her and collapsed.

Li Mo and Ye Li shined white. They leveled up.

Ye Li laughed, close to tears. Leveling to her had become a miracle. As leveling brought extra stat, it meant an extra life. Even if she died, she wouldn’t hit 1 in all stats.

This level up was important to Li Mo as well, since it carried with it a new message.

[A mysterious power has given you Ralerna’s Valor.]

[Do you want to learn Ralerna’s Valor?]

[Yes!]

[Congratulations on learning Ralerna’s Valor!]

[Ralerna’s Valor: reduce damage taken by 10% and increase critical chance by 10%. Doubles when facing men.]

‘The level 10 gift not only absorbs stats but a boss’ gift as well…’

Li Mo exclaimed.

Ralerna’s body went in a blue and golden light.

[Ralerna’s Club (Golden)

Attack speed: 3 (Max:10)

Physical damage: 10-25

Effect: each attack has a 5% chance to stun.

Effect: Onslaught. Consume all your rage to increase damage by 200% and a 10% chance to stun the target.

Class restriction: warrior, knight.]

Li Mo asked Ye Li, “What’s your class?”

“W-warrior.” Ye Li stammered.

Li Mo threw her the club.

“For me?” Ye Li jerked. That as a golden gear! Even if he didn’t need it, he’d earn a fortune back in Holy City.

Li Mo turned to the other gear.

[Ralerna’s Valiant Armor(Blue)

Defense: 5-5

Magic defense: 5-5]

Li Mo put it on. Although he didn’t lack in these stats, he couldn’t just always stay white, no?

“Vice-chief Li, from now on I’m yours. I will do anything you ask of me.”

Ye Li, with the club in hand, vowed.

“There’s no need for that. You’re not my type.”

Ye Li blushed. She got the hint.

“Are there any more bosses in this forest?”

Absorbing boss gifts was a good reason to be perky. And he was very much itching to get his hands on another.

“Y-yes. Forest of Ruin has three orc camps. Camp Ralerna in the east, Butcher Gutaf’s camp in the west, and orc king Reguland in the heart of the forest.”

Ye Li may have low stats, but she was a professional gamer in real life. She had gained all the information she could on the Forest of Ruin back in Holy City.

“Camp Gutaf in the west an Camp Ralerna in the east are about the same. Each has a chance to drop a golden gear for any class. But the orc king Reguland is a true boss. He will drop any class golden gear set and there’s even the chance for epic gear!”

Golden gear was called legendary, while above that was epic.

Ye Li said, “With how gears are split only by quality and not by level, Reguland has always been under strict control. Milky Way Galaxy’s players and even Clauder have no way of killing him.

“It’s not Reguland himself that makes him difficult, but his gear is just too good that for the other factions to let him be killed.

“What I know is that Dipper Galaxy and Heavenly King Galaxy take turn in having control of the rights on his hunting. And these two galaxies are among the top five galaxies in the world.”

“You sure know a lot.” Li Mo gasped.

“I am a professional gamer. If not for getting killed so many times in here, I wouldn’t have ended up like this.

“Don’t take me for some casual girl. I am a capable woman, and still a virgin.”

“Whether you are a casual girl, or even a virgin, what does that have to do with me?”

“I am stating my qualities.”

Li Mo: …

“You are the strongest right now, but you can’t defeat Reguland. As for the other mini-boss, Gutaf, although of the same level as Ralerna, he also drops a golden accessory and of great importance.

“Milky Way Galaxy players control him and we can’t touch him…”

“That means we can only come after this boss, Ralerna?”

“Ralerna can’t be farmed whenever. It depends on the other factions. If they want to do it, we have to give way.”

Li Mo fell silent. ‘The situation here seems to be the same as in the real world…’
