Chapter 45 The Gods' Gift: Death Reincarnation
Infamous players could reduce their Infamy Value by grinding monsters.
Generally speaking, killing 100 regular monsters could reduce Infamy Value by one point, and killing 100 elite monsters could reduce it by ten points.
As for bosses, a single Black Iron boss could also reduce it by ten points, but it must be soloed.
Moreover, the monsters couldn't be at a lower level than the player.
In Ragnarok, grinding monsters lower than your level yielded no rewards, and naturally, it wouldn't reduce Infamy Value.
One million!
Even with his strength, reducing that much Infamy Value was extremely difficult.
And he couldn't die!
If players carrying Infamy Value die, all their equipment, except for non-droppable items, would be lost!
And it was the kind of loss where everything dropped cleanly with just one death.
So, the question was, how could he leave the newbie village?
Actually, other equipment was not a big deal.
Even if the golden Ninefold Longbow dropped, Alan wouldn't care.
But to Alan, the Bloodthirsty Necklace was an extraordinary item!
If the Bloodthirsty Necklace dropped, he didn't know when he would ever get another item like it!
Should he clear his Infamy Value in the newbie village before leaving?
But with his one million Infamy Value, even grinding dungeons to death wouldn't work.
In the end, Alan set his sights on the Gods' Gift.
Could he defy fate depended on the Gods' Gift.
In Ragnarok, the Gods' Gift was an incredibly powerful item.
"Use the Gods' Gift."
Alan activated the Gods' Gift with great anticipation.
[You have received the Gods' Gift...]
[Due to your high Infamy Value, the gift has changed.]
[You have received Gaia's Gift...]
A dark red beam of light descended from the sky, enveloping Alan.
[You have acquired the ability Death Reincarnation.]
Alan's eyes lit up, and he immediately checked the description of Death Reincarnation.
[Death Reincarnation: 1 Star.]
[Effect: Your normal attacks have a 0.5% chance to instantly kill enemy units.]
[Cooldown: None.]
[Cost: None.]
[Proficiency: 0/1000 (Note: Proficiency is gained by killing monsters, NPCs, or adventurers of a level not lower than your own. Each kill grants one point of proficiency.)]
Alan smiled.
This was indeed a blessing from Gaia.
Even though it was just a one-star Death Reincarnation with a seemingly simple effect, this one effect was practically invincible!
A 0.5% chance was not high.
But what if the star level increased?
The potential effects could be extraordinary.
Especially in the later stages when facing world bosses, he could even instantly defeat them!
Just thinking about it made Alan a bit excited.
After calming himself down, Alan began to pick up the items dropped by the NPCs.
There were sixteen bosses waiting for him to collect their drops, including Daniel.
He was the super boss of the newbie village, and no one knew what good items he might drop.
Equipment, skills, gold, various materials...
Alan frowned.
Except for skills that could improve the proficiency of A Withered Tree Springing to Life Again, everything else was useless to him.
For one simple reason.
With his current Infamy Value, as soon as he left the newbie village, everything will drop.
Finally, Alan found something useful to him.
"Recruitment notice!"
A very powerful game item.
In the early stages of the game, the recruitment notice was even more useful than the Heart of the Lord.
"Use the recruitment notice."
Alan didn't hesitate at all and used it immediately.
Because if he didn't use it, once he died, the item would just drop.
The key point was that after his death, he would respawn in Central City and wouldn't be able to come back to retrieve it.
[Please name your guild.]
[Lone Ranger Guild.]
Alan named it after the guild he had established in his previous life.
[You are the first player to establish a guild. A server-wide announcement will be made. Do you wish to hide your name?]
"No."
[Server-wide announcement: Congratulations to player Ice King for being the first to establish a guild. Reward: special guild item +1. Keep up the good work, players.]
[Server-wide announcement: Congratulations to player Ice King for being the first to establish a guild. Reward: special guild item +1. Keep up the good work, players.]
'Establishing a guild!' everyone was shocked.
This was much more valuable than being the first to kill a boss.
Originally, many people were still discussing the destruction of the newbie village, but as they heard that Alan had established a guild, their attention was immediately drawn.
"Holy crap, Ice King! Has the long-silent Ice King finally made a move?"
"What are the benefits of establishing a guild? Can any high-level players explain?"
"The game introduction for Ragnarok mentions that it provides special bonuses, like guild members gaining an extra 1% experience, 1% damage increase, 1% movement speed increase, and so on."
"Only 1%? That's not much."
"This is a one-star guild. The higher the guild level, the greater the bonuses."
Discussions about this could be heard everywhere in Ragnarok.
In a level 15 game dungeon, SnowflakeChaser frowned upon hearing the server-wide announcement.
'You've been holding back just for this recruitment notice?'
She had been wondering why Alan's level hadn't increased, and now it seemed to make sense.
To get the recruitment notice, he had been doing storyline quests and had given up on leveling up.
'But in the real world, you don't have a big guild backing you. Establishing a game guild won't change much,' she thought.
Not only SnowflakeChaser, but other guilds were also discussing it.
They all operated under the name of a guild, but without a recruitment notice, they weren't true game guilds.
They were just self-organized guilds.
While the outside world was buzzing, Alan began to check his guild's status.
[Name: Lone Ranger Guild.]
[Level: 1 Star.]
[Guild Leader: Ice King.]
[Vice Leader: None.]
[Administrators: None.]
[Regular Members: None.]
[Wealth: 0.]
[Warehouse: None.]
[Achievements: 0/1,000.]
[Bonus: Damage +1%.]
Alan's eyes lit up, and he quickly stored all his gold, equipment, various materials, and items into the guild.
Then, they wouldn't drop if he died.
"What a pleasant surprise."
Previously, Alan had been worried that his equipment would drop when he left the newbie village.
But now, with the guild, he could store everything in the guild warehouse.
Now, he could take everything with him.
After establishing the guild, he received a special guild item.
[Special Guild Item: Bronze.]
[Effect: Upon use, guild members will receive a 10% critical hit bonus.]
Alan's eyes lit up.
This bonus was excellent.
In the early stages, guild bonuses were usually around 1%, but this one was 10%.
"Use it," Alan said.
[You have used the special item. Guild members' critical hit rate +10%, guild achievements +200.]
