Rise Online: Return of the Legendary Player

Chapter 139 Sigurd



"That... that was..." Dathan couldn\'t finish his sentence.

"Incredible." Araxie completed for him.

"I didn\'t do anything special." Kaizen said, modestly.

"Yes you did." Dathan stated. "You saved us all. Thank you."

"No need to thank me." Kaizen waved his hand. "I just did what had to be done."

"Still, thank you." Dathan insisted.

Araxie then asked:

"What now? What are we going to do?"

All the players present looked at the Lord\'s cocoon that was about to hatch and mentally asked the same question to themselves. However, there was nothing that could be done.

When the black smoke finally cleared, a message appeared for everyone in the sky of the square.

[A special event has been initiated.]

A man with black hair, gray skin, and wings made of black energy five meters tall appeared. Beside him were two black dogs, each two meters tall, with pointed teeth and fungus over their eyes. Below them both, all the servants of the cult The Eye of Hermodr who were killed by the players, were standing again, but zombified.

"The weak... human... dared to summon me once again? I will... punish them." The Lord said, opening his eyelids and revealing intensely red eyes.

[The Guardian of the Gates of Nielfheim, Sigurd, begins to move].

Both the players who were present in the square, and also those who were not, felt a terrifying aura, something they had never felt before.

This Lord was not a normal NPC, nor a monster that could be found naturally in the world, this was a being connected to the mythology of the entire game.

The Bleeding Lily looked at the warning screen about the special event as it came out from inside the mouth of the late Centipede Queen. She smiled bitterly and immediately thought:

"What the fuck did you do, Kaizen?"

In the library square, when Dathan, Araxie and the others looked to their left to see Kaizen\'s reaction, they realized that he had already disappeared. They were about to insult him with every bad adjective in existence, but suddenly they heard his voice.

"I liked the view from here." Kaizen said. He was standing on top of the pediment of the City Library. "By the way, guys, I advise you to get out of there." He waved to the players.

No one could imagine what Kaizen was thinking at that moment. It was impossible to predict what he wanted to do. Still, everyone followed his request and ran out of the square.

The Lord turned his neck to look at Psyker.

[The Guardian of the Gates of Nielfheim stares at you].

"Human... Insolent... Do you think that\'s enough to stop me?"

Kaizen ignored him for a second, opened the system interface and clicked on the camera option. Then a small, metallic sphere, which was floating quietly, appeared next to him.

\'Ah, so that\'s what people use to record in-game... Should I broadcast all this or upload it later?\' Kaizen wondered as he equipped the Guardian\'s Elm. \'Streaming this live will make it more exciting, I\'m sure.\' So he clicked to start a broadcast.

Since Kaizen was one of the few players in the middle of the event who turned on a broadcast, immediately the algorithm of Rise Online\'s own video platform placed his broadcast as recommended. Obviously, the numbers began to climb at an impressive rate and never stopped.

50... 136...951... 2003... 7597... 14030...

"Great..." Kaizen said with a smile. "Let\'s get the real party started."

The Lord, who was already irritated by the fact that Kaizen stared at him without fear of looking him in the eye, became even angrier when he was ignored for a moment.

[The Guardian of the Gates of Nielfheim begins to move toward him].

"Humans... weaklings... that man is mine... you can... execute the rest of them!" The Lord\'s voice was drawn out, but it was still thunderous.

When the undead minions and the Lord\'s two dogs started running towards the players present, everyone watching the broadcast was shocked. No one could believe what they were seeing.

"What\'s really happening?"

"Are they... are they undead? Isn\'t that amount too absurd?"

"And that giant thing? Is that a monster?"

"How is that possible?"

On the streets, people who were guarding other shelters in order to also earn rewards from the Tretidian Kingdom were shocked by the situation as they watched the broadcast. Many of the people watching all this, had never seen such an event happen in the game. No one knew what to do. They could only watch as the Crimson Soldiers\' Guild and the Psyker fought against the powerful enemy.

Meanwhile, in the command room of the headquarters of the Order of the White Sword, the player-leader of the strongest guild in the Mibothen Human Realm, Galahad, was watching Kaizen\'s broadcast with the other guild members.

"Is... is that part of the game event?" Someone asked, shocked.

"No... that\'s not part of the event, I don\'t think." Galahad said. "I ... I don\'t know what\'s going on."

"What we\'re seeing now..." Another guild member said. "Should it be happening? At this rate, the Royal City of Tretidian could be destroyed..."

Everyone was shocked by the situation as they watched all this. No one could believe what they were seeing. It was like watching a nightmare come true.

Galahad was right, the Lord\'s emergence was not an event thing, because mathematically his emergence could only happen if a crazy player did exactly what Kaizen did.

Thanks to this, the condition of no undead appearing because Kaizen killed the Necromantic Witch was not enforced.

The zombies commanded by the Lord spread throughout the city, running after every player in sight. At that moment, Kaizen equipped the \'Ring of Gold\', one of the items he received when he killed the Necromantic Witch.

\'I think it\'s time to use that to get the top of the slaughter rankings.\' He said to himself.
