Chapter 52 The Low-Level Code of Life and Death
[This Infamy Value player has put our Jinse Empire region ahead of the world, giving us an extra three hundred bronze equipment pieces and three thousand free attribute points.]
[His greatness is beyond words. I strongly suggest that after completing the mission, we let him leave the city. He might continue to benefit us in the future.]
[To this end, let's pay tribute to our great Infamy Value player!]
After editing the content, Alan sent it out.
There was no other way.
He was genuinely worried that some overzealous players might hunt him down relentlessly, which would be a headache.
However, what Alan didn't know was that major clubs, corporations, and governments were holding emergency meetings.
"I believe you've all noticed that this Infamy Value player has over 400,000 health points. At this stage, even our special forces shield warriors with bronze sets only have a little over 50,000 health points."
"Moreover, his million Infamy Value must be due to some heinous act, like destroying the newbie village or killing the NPCs there."
"This is highly likely. His resistance is almost zero, so to kill the NPCs in the newbie village, he must have extremely high output."
"High health, high damage—his potential is enormous. After this mission, we must recruit him into our team."
The discussions among the major forces all led to the same conclusion that Alan had immense potential and was worth recruiting.
However, it wasn't absolute.
Some forces believed that Alan's current Infamy Value would be very difficult to clear before his second or even third job change. In the future, if he dies even once, his level would reset to one, and all his equipment would be lost, rendering all his efforts futile.
The further he progressed, the harder it became to level up.
Each point of Infamy Value would cause him to lose an additional level upon death. A million Infamy Value was unimaginable.
In his rented apartment, after posting, Alan chose to log back in.
After logging in, Alan ignored the players surrounding him. Letting them kill him didn't have any substantial impact on him anyway.
Moreover, killing him could help these players gain rewards, thereby strengthening the Jinse Empire region. For him, it was acceptable.
This time, he logged in to submit a mission.
[You have completed the mission to release Lysandra. Mission rewards: +50 free attribute points, +1 God's Blessing.]
Alan took a deep breath, saying, "Use God's Blessing."
The last Death Reincarnation was a mighty blessing.
[You have received God's Blessing...]
[Due to your high Infamy Value, the blessing has changed.]
[You have received Gaia's Blessing...]
Just like last time, a dark red beam of light descended from the sky, enveloping Alan.
[You have obtained the Code of Life and Death.]
Alan was extremely shocked.
'The Code of Life and Death?'
'This is an incredibly powerful piece of equipment!'
Every Jinse Empire person knew the power of the Code of Life and Death.
It was just unknown how this Code of Life and Death compared to the legendary one.
[Code of Life and Death: Divine Equipment.]
[Requirements: Only for Ice King; cannot be dropped, gifted, transferred, or traded.]
[Effect: You can write the name of any existing person (limited to one) in the Code of Life and Death. The person whose name is written in the Code of Life and Death will suffer 10,000 plus 1% of your maximum health as true damage per second, regardless of their location, until they die.]
[Durability: Indestructible.]
As expected, it was just a weakened version of the Code of Life and Death.
However, even so, it was still quite formidable.
As long as one knew the other's name, one could attack that person from a distance.
The base damage per second was ten thousand, plus an additional one percent of his maximum health.
This bonus might not be significant for other players, but for Alan, it was a completely different story.
He currently had over 400,000 health points, so one percent was over 4,000.
And in the future, he could continue to increase his maximum health.
Moreover, this equipment might have limited use for other players because it had one restriction—to write down the name.
As a reborn player, Alan knew the names of most bosses from his previous life.
This means he could remotely hunt these bosses.
Especially...
Alan thought of some interesting strategies, and a mischievous smile appeared on his face.
While Alan was reviewing these, the bounty mission finally ended.
The players gradually left.
However, a few did not leave.
One of them stepped forward and said calmly, "Hello, I'm Virgil Newman from Hades Guild. Are you interested in joining our Hades Guild? We can discuss the benefits."
As his voice fell, another voice rang out, "Hey there, come join our guild. We have plenty of beautiful ladies in our guild."
"Step aside, buddy. Our Berserker Guild is your best choice. Join us, and we'll help you clear your Infamy Value."
The group started arguing.
Alan rolled his eyes.
"You guys didn't hold back when you were trying to kill me just now."
A few of them laughed awkwardly, "Buddy, you can't blame us. You log off to eat, and we get so much equipment and free attribute points. You didn't lose out either, right?"
Alan waved his hand. "Alright, I had things to do offline anyway. Getting killed was just my way of supporting the Jinse Empire players. But I don't want to join any guild. I'm out."
He didn't want to waste time with these people. He had very important things to do next—supporting Leona in becoming the queen of Stellaria!
This was extremely important because whether he could become a god later was closely related to this.
The sooner he helped Leona become the queen of Stellaria, the sooner he could gain the power of faith.
If he could gain the power of faith in the early stages of the game, when the Great Cataclysm arrived and the TechNova System invaded, he would have even greater strength.
The power of faith was different from attribute power.
Its level was much higher than attribute power.
During the Great Cataclysm, Alan had seen a strong person from the TechNova System who possessed the power of faith, using it to kill three nine-time job change experts with a single sword strike.
Such strength was terrifying!
Leaving Lindataria, Alan walked towards a less populated area.
With his Infamy Value, he attracted attention wherever he went.
He didn't stop until he reached the territory of level 20 monsters, the Poisonous Spiders.
As soon as he stopped, the temperature around him suddenly dropped.
Alan squinted his eyes and said in a deep voice. "Leona, you finally came."
"Watching me get surrounded at the resurrection altar, was it fun?"
Leona chuckled nonchalantly. "I couldn't help you. If I did, the kingdom's ministers would accuse me of aiding a criminal.
"Then, I wouldn't be able to compete for the throne."
Alan waved his hand. "Alright, what do you want?"
