Volume 1, Chapter 62: Soaring Six Levels in One Go, Shocking the Entire Server!

As time passed, the growth rate of the Wraith Value gradually began to slow down.

Finally, it came to a complete halt at 11,577 points.

"It seems the wraiths in the vicinity have all been absorbed by me."

Seeing the stagnated Wraith Value, Lin Yu touched his chin and muttered to himself.

After all, given his current level, he could only absorb wraiths within a radius of less than one kilometer.

His current location was right in the center of the previous novice village, where the nearby wild monsters were not particularly numerous.

"Even so, these ten thousand plus Wraith Values are enough for me to reach level fifteen."

Looking at the Wraith Value displayed on the panel before him, a flash of undisguised ecstasy surged into Lin Yu's eyes.

He had previously been heartbroken over losing a level due to death, but that pain instantly vanished into thin air.

According to the exchange ratio of 10 Wraith Values for 1 Experience Point, his current Wraith Value was enough to exchange for 1,157 Experience Points.

Since the experience required from level ten to twenty was two hundred points per level, it meant that relying on these Wraith Values, he could actually jump up by six levels.

What concept was a six-level increase?

One must know that Xiahou Qingqing, currently the highest-ranked player, was only around level thirteen or fourteen.

From this, the terrifying nature of the Necromancy Refining Technique was evident.

Of course, this time it was mainly due to Lin Yu's good luck in encountering the humanitarian destruction!

Otherwise, if he had relied on killing wild monsters slowly by himself, it would definitely not have been this easy.

"Since that's the case, I might as well test the power of this Necromancy Refining Technique."

After pondering for a moment, Lin Yu decided to convert all his existing Wraith Values into experience.

After all, he was also very curious if the art of necromancy was truly as miraculous as its description claimed.

Having made up his mind, Lin Yu no longer hesitated and directly converted all the Wraith Values into experience.

Had it been before, Lin Yu would definitely have kept a low profile and tried his best to slowly follow behind the main force in terms of level.

But now, he no longer had any need for that.

He was already wanted by the entire server, coupled with the fact that he could no longer resurrect at will as he used to.

Therefore, in order to stay alive, he had to utilize every single method available to enhance his strength.

"Ding, you have reached level ten, and obtained ten free attribute points."

"Ding, you have reached level eleven, and obtained ten free attribute points."

...

"Ding, you have reached level fifteen, and obtained ten free attribute points."

Until six consecutive prompt tones sounded in his ears, Lin Yu's level shot up like a rocket straight to level fifteen.

And the moment he reached level fifteen, a mechanical voice rang in Lin Yu's ear once again.

"Ding, your current level has entered the level leaderboard. Would you like to hide your nickname?"

"Hide!"

Lin Yu directly chose to hide it. After all, he was not someone who liked to stand out too much.

[Ding, congratulations to the hidden nickname player for reaching level 15, becoming the new number one on the level leaderboard! May everyone keep up the good work!]

[Ding, because the hidden nickname player has reached level 15, the drop rate of Guild Creation Tokens from all server Bosses will be increased. May all players keep up the good work!]

...

The instant Lin Yu's words fell, a server-wide announcement suddenly resounded throughout the entire game.

Unlike equipment, which players could change at any time, levels did not have that issue, and therefore triggered server-wide announcements.

And as this server-wide announcement rang out, those players who were still online and had the leaderboard enabled instantly boiled with excitement, all stopping whatever they were doing.

If they remembered correctly, Xiahou Qingqing, who was number one on the leaderboard today, had only just reached level fourteen before logging off!

Moreover, at that time, she was leading the second place by more than a level and a half of experience. Now, a level fifteen player had suddenly popped up, how could people not be shocked?

"Are you kidding me? Did I hear that right? Wasn't the highest level today only fourteen? Where did a level fifteen suddenly come from?"

"Could it be a hack? That's at least a jump of three levels!"

"Didn't the game officials say there wouldn't be hacks? What's going on with this guy?"

"Damn, could this guy have taken down that red-named player?"

"Hiss, a Guild Creation Token! This is going to be good to watch!"

For a time, the entire game fell into an uproar, because this result was simply too unexpected.

At the same time, as the news of the leaderboard's number one changing hands spread, the entire country shook violently.

Especially the top-tier families, who hurriedly held emergency meetings, swearing to find out the player who ranked number one on the level leaderboard.

Of course, the most important thing was that they needed to find this person to complete a Boss kill and secure the drop of the first Guild Creation Token.

Because in the game, only players above level fifteen who dealt the final blow to a Boss had a chance to drop a Guild Creation Token.

And as the faction that established the first guild, all members would receive a 10% increase in their guild attribute bonuses!

For these top factions, this was definitely something they could never give up.

The Xiahou Family.

Xiahou Qingqing, who had just woken up and was preparing for her morning run, didn't even have time to step out the door before she almost bumped head-on into Steward Fu, who suddenly rushed into the doorway.

Fortunately, her reaction was fast enough to avoid an awkward scene.

However, before she could even scold him, she heard him panting heavily and saying, "Miss, the master wants you to head to the conference room immediately for a meeting, because someone in the game has already reached level fifteen!"

"What? Level fifteen?"

Hearing this, even the usually calm Xiahou Qingqing had an extremely complex expression on her face at that moment.

You must know that before she logged off, she was leading the second-ranked player by a full level and a half.

Even if the other party had some sort of fortuitous encounter, it shouldn't have been possible for them to level up this fast.

...

The Xiao Family.

Xiaoxiao, who was still fast asleep, suddenly received a phone call.

Looking at the caller ID displaying the name "Xiaozhan", she was clearly somewhat stunned.

Why is this brat calling so early?

However, the moment she answered the call, she instantly became much more awake, and then cried out in somewhat ungraceful shock: "Xiaozhan, what did you say? An anonymous player at level fifteen has inexplicably appeared in the game today?"

"Yes, I'm currently suspecting whether this anonymous player could be Brother Yu? Because this person is not among the top twenty on today's leaderboard." Xiaozhan's voice came from the other end of the line.

Because in the latter's view, only Lin Yu had this possibility.

"Lin Yu?" Hearing this, Xiaoxiao's expression changed slightly, and a very bold idea suddenly popped into her mind.

Could the reason Lin Yu destroyed the resurrection altar be just to gain five levels?

If her guess was correct, the one who destroyed the resurrection altar yesterday was definitely Lin Yu without a doubt.

After all, throughout the entire game, probably only Lin Yu possessed this kind of strength.

Originally, she had wanted to contact him to confirm, but for various reasons, she couldn't get through.

Now, hearing Xiaozhan inexplicably say that someone had reached level fifteen, it was hard for her not to connect these two events.

In her view, it was highly likely that Lin Yu had taken on a hidden quest, which was why he had chosen to remain in the novice village all this time.

"Sis, if it really is Brother Yu, then you'll probably have to trouble yourself to contact him and get him to help our Xiao family secure the first Guild Creation Token as much as possible!"

Right at that moment, Xiaozhan's voice came from the other end of the line again.

Because the value of the first Guild Creation Token was simply too high—not to mention being able to lead in guild level, just the extra 10% attribute bonus alone was enough to make people flock to it eagerly.

Xiaoxiao naturally knew the importance of the first Guild Creation Token, except that she was still obviously immersed in shock at the moment.

After pondering for a moment, she finally replied faintly: "Xiaozhan, I'm already aware of this matter. As for whether it's Lin Yu, we can only confirm it after I log into the game."

With that, Xiaoxiao exchanged a few simple words with Xiaozhan and hung up the phone.

However, her expression at this moment was clearly much more complicated.

A moment later, she suddenly looked up at the gradually brightening sky outside the window, her eyes narrowing slightly.

"Lin Yu, just how many secrets are hidden on you, fellow?"
