Chapter 58 The Bounty of Demon King Greyfawn
The Royal Palace, the Abyss Well.
Leona heard the server-wide announcement echoing across Stellaria, and a look of excitement appeared on her face.
'It worked!'
Silvermoon Palace.
King Rex looked up in the direction of the Abyss Well, a faint smile appearing on his face.
"Leona, you've been gone for so long, and you come back with such a big surprise."
Crystal Palace.
Lisa's face grew increasingly grim. "Mother, Grelorin is dead."
"I heard." Susan took a deep breath. "From now on, stay here in the Crystal Palace and don't wander around."
"But... what about the competition for the throne?"
"Competition?" Susan retorted, "No, the throne can only be yours!"
Susan glared at Lisa with some reproach. "Think before you act."
She continued, "Ashley is already at her peak, and now that Leona has killed Grelorin, she will also be heavily favored. The best thing you can do now is to lower your profile and let them fight it out."
Lisa's eyes lit up. "Mother, you're so wise."
Deep in the Ice and Snow Forest.
In a grand and majestic palace, a thunderous roar echoed through the sky.
"Who dares to kill my son? I will tear you to pieces!"
A surge of demonic energy shot up into the sky, forming a massive mark above the heavens.
The mark solidified and shrank, forming a black rune.
"Bloodline Resonance, Pursuit Across Thousands of Miles!"
The demonic rune shot out instantly.
After killing the demon king's son, Alan silently opened his attribute page to check his current stats.

[Equipment: Ninefold Longbow (gold), Breeze Set (bronze), Bloodthirsty Necklace (special), Purification Necklace (special), Eye of Purity (special), Tome of Life and Death (divine gift).]
Overall, his attributes had undergone a tremendous change compared to before.
At this moment, Alan sensed something and looked up at the sky.
He saw a mark emitting demonic energy rapidly flying towards him from afar.
Seeing this, Alan felt a strong sense of foreboding.
Without any hesitation, he stored all the equipment he was wearing in the guild warehouse.
In case he was instantly killed by this sudden mark, he wouldn't lose his equipment.
"Whoosh!"
A sound of something breaking through the air came, and the rune instantly entered Alan's body.
[You have been marked by Demon King Greyfawn.]
Alan's pupils suddenly contracted. 'Damn it!'
Sure enough.
A grand voice echoed throughout Stellaria.
[National announcement: Demon King Greyfawn has placed a bounty on the marked adventurer. All players are encouraged to kill the marked adventurer!]
[National announcement: Demon King Greyfawn has placed a bounty on the marked adventurer. All players are encouraged to kill the marked adventurer!]
Alan's face turned grim; another nationwide bounty quest!
However, in that instant, Alan's eyes turned cold.
In Central City, he kept a low profile.
But outside of Central City, if anyone dared to mess with him, well, too bad for them.
He would just send them back to the revival altar!
With his current stats, unless those with god-level talents had all awakened their abilities, no one could touch him in the wild!
'Demon King Greyfawn, huh? Once I leave Stellaria, I'll definitely come find you.'
'I'm just wondering who to farm for HP, and you show up at the perfect time!'
Coldness flashed in Alan's eyes.
Collecting his thoughts, he took out a bottle.
This was a corpse gas collection bottle he had obtained in the newbie village. The description said that once it was filled with corpse gas, it would trigger a special quest.
[Congratulations, you have successfully filled the corpse gas bottle and triggered the special quest: Footprints of the Snow Corpse.]
[Quest details: Locate and conquer the hidden game dungeon, "Footprints of the Snow Corpse," prior to your second class change. The rewards increase with the difficulty level of the first completion. Completing the dungeon on "Hell" difficulty could potentially unlock a subsequent quest.]
[Quest penalty: None.]
[Quest reward: Unknown.]
Alan's brow furrowed just a touch—this game dungeon was news to him.
He drew a complete blank; not a single memory jogged.
There was only one answer—this game dungeon had not been discovered in his previous life.
This wasn't surprising.
Ragnarok's hidden game dungeons and hidden quests all had specific trigger conditions.
It was entirely possible that it had never been triggered.
Without thinking about the quest for now, Alan's top priority was to change his class.
If he couldn't change his class, he wouldn't be able to continue leveling up.
Alan knew of four god-level hidden classes for archers, but he only knew the strategy for two of them.
After all, not everyone would share their strategy for obtaining a hidden class.
However, one of the god-level hidden classes for archers that Alan knew of was in Stellaria's capital, Starcity.
With Alan's current Infamy Value, the city guards wouldn't let him into the city, so he couldn't trigger the class change quest for that god-level hidden class.
As for the other one, it wasn't in Stellaria, and he couldn't go there for now.
Killing the demon king's son, Grelorin, had reduced Alan's Infamy Value by twenty thousand.
But he still had over nine hundred thousand Infamy Value.
'Since there's no way to break the deadlock for now, I'll focus on stacking HP.' Alan thought to himself.
Alan had a good mindset; he knew his talent was the key.
As long as he stacked his HP, even at level twenty, he could still sweep through everything.
In Stellaria, most ordinary wild monsters couldn't withstand Alan's attack power.
However, there was one place with monsters that were quite good.
Level 45 Bloodback Turtles.
They had thick health bars and a passive self-healing ability, perfect for farming HP.
Moreover, Alan knew how to unlock the game dungeon for the Bloodback Turtles. Once the dungeon was unlocked, farming Hell-difficulty Bloodback Turtles would make stacking HP even easier.
With a plan in mind, Alan headed towards the Bloodback Turtle spawn point.
Starcity.
In an inconspicuous small courtyard.
Roy Brooks, the leader of Blackwind Stronghold, stood timidly in the courtyard, cautiously speaking towards the room.
"Sir, that adventurer is just too powerful, I..."
The door opened, and the person inside the room slapped Roy across the face from a distance.
"Stop making excuses. If the matter of you forging standard weapons reaches the king's ears, no one will be able to protect you!"
