“What’s wrong with my worldview shattering? As long as I’m strong enough, the world will reshape my image.”
Orson said with a smile, as the onslaught of his Chaos Magic Balls became even more fierce.
Block!
Block!
…
Drunken Dream continuously blocked, and it only took a few seconds for him to go from shock to rage.
The man in front of him was a madman, a crazy person who’d lost his mind from playing the game!
We’re not on the same path—this kind of friend is better avoided!
Although Drunken Dream had been blind since childhood, he always had a heart of a swordsman. He had long aspired to be someone who would draw his sword to help the helpless in times of need…
At first, when Orson ruthlessly attempted to wipe out all NPCs, Drunken Dream could understand it as simple greed—everyone had moments of greed.
But now, with the Lord’s private soldiers all slaughtered, and Orson still planning to attack allies for a few worthless pieces of equipment, Drunken Dream had a sudden epiphany: this person was not someone he could work with!
“Burning damage…”
Drunken Dream furrowed his brows as the chaotic flames on his Dragon Spear burned towards his hand. He had already witnessed just how overpowered this skill was.
“This skill can be broken!”
Whoosh!
Drunken Dream suddenly withdrew his Dragon Spear into his inventory, and Orson’s eyes narrowed.
“Not bad, you get a 99 for your adaptability. I just have one point left to give you, and that’s for fear you’ll get too full of yourself.”
This tactic was similar to when Orson briefly withdrew the Crimson Lizard King into his Battle Space to avoid a lethal blow or negative buffs. Both techniques used spatial magic to isolate most negative effects.
Next moment, the Dragon Spear reappeared in Drunken Dream’s hand, continuing to shatter the fireballs.
Every time Blazing Burn spread, he would withdraw his spear, repeating the process.
Facing Orson’s unstoppable attack speed, Drunken Dream couldn’t help but sweat profusely, growling lowly, concentrating all his attention on defense.
At the same time, he ordered Hazel’s parents to head toward the task submission point as quickly as possible.
“The Flame Dragon!”
Orson said lightly as the Flame Dragon descended from the sky, its momentum terrifying as it crashed toward Drunken Dream.
“Unleash the Power!”
Drunken Dream’s face shifted as he threw a charged punch toward the sky. A shockwave burst forth, scattering The Flame Dragon into the air.
Hazel’s Father: “Hero from another world, on behalf of the Xien family, we thank you for your great kindness!”
Hazel’s Mother: “Adventurer, you will become a distinguished guest of our Platinum Family. We hope you will visit our Xien family head in the future.”
“Your affinity with Bass Xien has increased…”
“Your affinity with Melissa Xien has increased…”
Drunken Dream’s brows knitted tightly. The man before him was so powerful it left him breathless. He was in no mood to listen to system notifications; his entire focus was on defense.
Why not attack? Because he couldn’t. The opponent was a freakin’ mage!
“Move faster! Stop hesitating!” Drunken Dream snapped, annoyed. Hazel’s parents had barely moved a few dozen meters, and their incessant chatter was driving him crazy.
Orson’s mouth curled upward as he threw out an explosive fireball. Drunken Dream instinctively raised his spear to stab at it.
Boom!
The blazing fireball exploded.
“Damn!!” Drunken Dream’s forehead broke out in cold sweat. He was thinking of removing his armor to block the Blazing Burn, but before he could act, a heavy downpour arrived.
Storm Blade!
Pfft, pfft…
The fireball was extinguished by the rain blades, and the surrounding mist quickly spread. Drunken Dream felt goosebumps on his arms as the visibility in the fog dropped below two meters.
He closed his eyes, planning to rely on sound to locate his opponent.
Born blind, he had developed extraordinary hearing, and he was confident no blinding skill could affect him.
“Listen carefully; no matter how well he moves, he will make a sound.” Drunken Dream muttered to himself.
However…
Some people were more slippery than Drunken Dream could ever imagine.
Orson laughed quietly in the mist, casting the Mud Trap skill beneath his feet.
By deliberately slowing himself down, the hidden effect was that his footsteps would vanish…
Orson slowly walked past Drunken Dream, who was still standing there stiffly with his spear, trying to look cool.
“Why aren’t you attacking me?”
“Why?”
Two seconds later, Drunken Dream suddenly realized. “Shit, he’s attacking the NPCs!”
Clang!
The spear shot forward like a dragon, and Drunken Dream gritted his teeth. “You’ve gone too far!”
With that, Drunken Dream kicked Orson out of his team. This time, he was really pissed off. He had no tolerance for bullies!
Hazel’s Father Bass continued to babble: “Honorable hero, are you protecting us with your life? Hazel is so lucky to have a friend like you!”
Hazel’s Mother Melissa: “May the God of Light bless the great hero!”
“Your affinity with Bass Xien has increased to 60 points.”
“Your affinity with Bass Xien has increased to 70 points.”
…
“Your affinity with Melissa Xien has increased…”
At this point, Hazel’s parents were looking at Drunken Dream with eyes that practically oozed affection.
Orson squinted, his face filled with amusement, as he sent a secret message: “Left, right, left, right, undying body.”
Drunken Dream froze for a while. Orson didn’t give him a chance to respond and suddenly distanced himself, bringing his hands together.
“Earthquake!”
Two massive stone dragons charged toward Drunken Dream’s left flank!
“Left left?”
Drunken Dream was dumbfounded. His spear moved in large arcs, forcefully smashing the stone dragon on the left.
At that moment, two chaotic fireballs came from the right…
Even Drunken Dream, if he were any slower, would have realized. The sudden attack on Hazel’s parents was clearly a setup arranged by the Mage God!
“Your affinity with Melissa Xien has increased to 80 points!”
Find adventures at empire
“Your affinity with…”
Drunken Dream felt his scalp tingle. He had to admire the Three Crown King’s way of thinking. He had figured out the fastest way to build affinity with NPCs: one person plays the good cop, and the other plays the bad cop.
“You will face judgment!”
Orson shouted with dramatic flair as he launched a Brahma’s Divine Flame into the air. Drunken Dream immediately activated his Godslayer Body, resisting the massive damage.
“Hero!”
“May the great Drunken Dream Lord be blessed!”
Hazel’s Mother released Mana Dispel to remove the burn debuff.
The Dragon Knight stood tall, his majestic figure towering over all.
To Hazel’s parents, he was a divine messenger, the King of the Dragon Knights, a legendary hero in the Infinite Dimensions world!
“You have obtained a hidden quest clue.”
“Would you like to check it?”
His affinity with them quickly reached a full 99 points.
“Is it maxed?” Orson asked privately.
“It’s maxed, but my friend, I really thought you were going to kill me just now,” Drunken Dream said with a bitter smile.
“The front was the test, the back is the performance.”
Orson replied without hesitation, then dramatically shouted: “Damn! You’ve forced me to use up all my mana, Dragon Knight, we’ll settle this another time!”
The Crimson Lizard King flew low to the ground, and Orson leaped onto its head, flying off.
Drunken Dream was shocked, wondering how the Three Crown King played games so differently from ordinary people.
“Hazel’s parents invite you to join the Xien family.”
“Quest time limit: None”
“Quest penalty: None.”
“Note: Joining the Xien family may influence your future faction alignment.”
“Do you accept Bass Xien’s proposal?”
The prompt chimed, and Drunken Dream quickly asked Orson for his opinion via private chat.
“Of course, join. You need to marry the Duke’s eldest daughter. That will bring you endless benefits,” Orson laughed lightly. The situation was developing just as he had planned.
Drunken Dream, as a Silver Dragon Knight, would always join the Platinum Family, and Orson was just speeding up the process by n times.
“The Duke’s daughter? Can we go with someone else?” Drunken Dream hesitated.
Orson replied sarcastically: **”Oh, you’re picky? That woman is one of the Seven Beauties of the Light
Dragon Empire.”**
“Probably a bit more beautiful than Wedge,” Orson added.
“Wedge… I’ve already made plans, but in the game world, is Hazel okay?” Drunken Dream blushed; he liked loli characters.
“Get lost! Not okay!” Orson reacted violently, scaring Drunken Dream: “Are you into that kind of girl too?”
“Bullshit! I just want to give US gamers a glimmer of hope!” Orson put on a serious face, severely reprimanding Drunken Dream’s improper thoughts.
