Chapter 802: Chapter 341: New Benefits Prepared for Players

As Annan just emerged from the subway.

He looked up and saw a row of messy blue names—

...Those were undoubtedly players who had come to meet him.

Only players would display the blue names above their heads that only Annan and other players could see.

This was the players’ method for distinguishing their comrades while also creating a sense of community identity.

And for this reason, "Annan" had become a special case.

Only above Annan’s head, a golden "Annan" would be displayed.

This was a feature that Annan had taken the opportunity to add for himself after abandoning the identity of Tan Juan. It would only display above Annan’s head when he was operating as "Annan Winter"... The primary function was to differentiate Annan from others.

The players did not appear in front of Annan, but were protecting Annan’s safety silently from various corners and hidden spots.

Annan’s lips curved slightly upward, feeling a touch of warmth.

...By now, the players had almost realized Annan’s uniqueness.

During the confrontation with the spirit hosts, they already knew that their ability to come to this world was entirely because of the Book of Truth "Book of the Celestial Chariot", which pulled their souls from the other end of the dream realm into this world.

Their real souls were stored in the Book of the Celestial Chariot, and what now animates their bodies are artificial souls created by the Book of the Celestial Chariot. This was the essence of the players’ ability to resurrect indefinitely...

Annan had also understood. The "strange power" spent in creating bodies for the players and the energy consumed when a player resurrected after death, belonged to the Power of Truth of the "Book of the Celestial Chariot".

And these players who had been brought over, they were all good children.

Annan had not forced them to come protect him... It was merely the players’ concern for Annan, the "walking server", and their affection for him that brought them here to guard him.

...It looked like it was time to think of some tangible benefits for them.

Annan thought.

Things like "resurrection rights" and "teleportation rights" that don’t cost money seem a bit perfunctory.

But what else can I give them?

Their world and the one Annan originally belonged to are not the same. However, what they have in common is that neither of their worlds has the Mist Realm’s special "Curse Power", meaning the Transcendent system can’t be used.

Nor do their souls naturally contain "Elemental Power". This was a transformation of the Mist Realm after Prometheus ascended to godhood... a power that life created after the second era would naturally awaken to.

Because what is obtained in this world cannot be taken back to the original world.

That’s what makes their "crossing" seem like a "game"...

But they still need to have their own lives.

If it were just eight hours of sleep here each day, that would be fine, but nearly every player spends far more than eight hours adventuring in the Mist Realm.

Annan was a bit worried... this might affect their lives on the other side.

But he can’t just crudely impose an anti-addiction system.

—So he had to make sure that what they gained in this world was worth the time they spent responding to Annan’s call.

At the moment, the only thing affected was the soul of silver.

When players underwent spiritual ascension, the "talents" they gained were permanent. Now that they had advanced to the rank of silver, they had become markedly different—the influence of the soul of silver continuously fortified their bodies.

Common diseases could no longer affect them... and their memory, concentration, and logical thinking also steadily improved at a relatively slow pace after advancing to silver.

The players have hardly noticed this fact yet, but a few who advanced earlier have begun to feel it distinctly. They just still don’t know where exactly it comes from.

Annan had to take responsibility for the players...

After Annan learned about the source of "Elemental Power", he knew that players would not naturally awaken to Elemental Power.

The players are not natives of the Curse Realm, or rather, the Mist Realm.

As such, their souls do not contain the Elemental Power implanted by Prometheus. They are like the first generation of ancient ascendents... after advancing to gold, they won’t have Elemental Power. Compared to the fallen, their only advantage is that they can perform the "ascension ceremony".

Annan decided to help the players find the "seeds" that would allow them to gain Elemental Power.

However, this wasn’t actually difficult.

Long before Annan left Noah, he had heard from the Stone Father that "Nicholas II" was fiddling with research related to tox dust. And tox dust was a targeted weapon used against Otherworld species—it caused no harm to the natives of the world, but could easily corrode Otherworld beings like acid.

But it’s important to note... the Otherworld beings in tox dust are not defined as "Otherworld beings outside of this world". Instead, "all Otherworld beings outside of the Mist Realm".

That is to say... while in the Mist Realm, tox dust is used for self-defense.

But once it is taken to other worlds, it can be used to invade other worlds.

If tox dust could be used to break the shell of the Void World, new Void Realm Blood could be obtained. It would be like creating a one-time Curse Cellar in the Void World.

Invasions from Void World beings have been on the rise in recent years.

Near the Storm Tower, Void World beings occasionally seep through.

After Annan and the players advance to the gold rank together, Annan plans to take them down a few "dungeons". On one hand, it could help the players gain Elemental Power, and on the other hand, it could reduce Maria’s workload.

...Back then, Prometheus dug out the heart of the Void World.

So if I sneak some blood out, there shouldn’t be a big problem.

If the players can obtain Elemental Power—since it is stored in the soul, they might be able to take this power back with them.

As for what happens after that?

—That’s no longer Annan’s concern.

He is a strange Tyrant with a deep love for his friends, subordinates, and subjects... not a benevolent ruler with the world in his heart. Besides, he doesn’t know the player’s world.

The only thing he needs to worry about is the players’ safety on the other side.

Even though Annan can replace player slots at any time or permanently kick out a player... He has never used this power.

But as a friend who has known them for a while, who has adventured and lived together, he still doesn’t want them to encounter any trouble.

Surrounded by over two hundred names.

Although there were only a dozen people around Annan... he felt an unprecedented sense of security.
