Showing Authority

The leader of Feng Lin Mu was stunned. He immediately looked toward the source of the voice, only to see an ordinary-looking player appearing before him.

"Who are you?"

Feng Lin Mu looked at the newcomer with a hint of wariness.

At this moment, Shen Feng had hidden all his equipment effects. Coupled with the disguise effect of the Soul-Devouring Mask, he looked like an ordinary player in the eyes of others.

He didn't want to expose his identity over such a trivial matter for the time being.

"I'm also a rogue player. I just can't stand your bullying ways."

Shen Feng casually made up an excuse.

His firm tone immediately made the surrounding players burst into laughter.

"Hahaha, in this day and age, there are still white knights who want to play hero?"

"Hahaha, exactly, exactly!"

"We are from the New Era Guild. Get lost if you know what's good for you, otherwise, don't even think about leaving this Beginner Village!" Feng Lin Mu threatened fiercely.

At this moment, the surrounding players also chimed in to advise him: "A rogue player is no match for a major guild, let alone the New Era Guild of God Shi Tian. Friend, leave quickly."

"That's right! Brother, take my advice, there are some things you shouldn't meddle in."

"If you offend a giant like New Era, it will be hard to live in peace, whether in the Meta-Universe or in real life."

…

The onlookers all thought Shen Feng was a foolish young man, fantasizing about acting heroically in the game.

Shen Feng only smiled and did not reply. Originally, he didn't want to deal with these low-level accounts. After all, he was standing at the peak of the game; what adult would bicker with a three-year-old child?

However, Feng Lin Mu's group didn't think that way. Seeing that Shen Feng had no intention of attacking, they guessed that the player in front of them was only slightly over Level 10. Even if his level was slightly higher than theirs, it wasn't by much. They had the advantage in numbers now; the person in front of them not daring to make a move must mean he had reservations.

"Big Brother! The gear on him doesn't look bad, he even has a ring, necklace, and bracelet. He might be some rich second-generation in real life. Should we..."

Wang Dao Zhan Yan Luo made a throat-slitting gesture toward Feng Lin Mu.

Feng Lin Mu looked at the reinforcing brothers who had just arrived, instantly gaining courage.

"Damn it, you want to be a hero? Let your brothers teach you a lesson."

Immediately, he signaled to attack.

A few Assassins around Shen Feng simultaneously cast Stealth, disappearing from everyone's sight. The surrounding Mages and Archers also raised their weapons, ready to attack at any moment.

Shen Feng sneered upon seeing this.

"These guys really won't shed tears until they see the coffin. It seems after I return, I'll have to let Ru Fan discipline the people in the guild."

"Kill him!"

Feng Lin Mu seeing that everyone was ready, ordered the attack.

Instantly, the Assassins around Shen Feng appeared, the daggers in their hands flashing with cold light as they stabbed fiercely toward his vitals. From afar, the Mages and Archers also unleashed their strongest single-target attacks. The Warriors and Knights also activated Charge, locking onto Shen Feng's position.

It had to be said that their coordination was quite good, with melee and ranged attacks chaining seamlessly.

Not far away, Feng Lin Mu revealed a cold smile.

"So what if your level is a bit higher? Dozens of us can crowd-control you to death, giving you no chance to strike back."

Just as he was imagining looting a top-tier piece of equipment from this young man and returning to the club to have fun with some models, an astonishing scene occurred.

Before their attacks could even touch him, the Mage player made his move.

Shen Feng waved the staff in his hand, and countless magic spheres shot out like a Gatling gun, covering all the players attacking him, including Feng Lin Mu not far away.

"Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!..."

While everyone was still dazed, a flash of white light erupted, and the scene was left with only the corpses of the players.

The surrounding crowd was also dumbfounded.

"What just happened? Before I could even see clearly, those people were all dead?"

"This guy is definitely a hidden expert in the game!"

"His level is definitely not low, he probably hid his information. I wonder what he's doing in the Beginner Village."

"So what if he's high-level? Is he as high as God Shi Tian? Offending New Era's people means no god can save him."

"Indeed, what a pity."

…

At the same time, at the Beginner Village's resurrection point.

Dozens of white lights flashed.

Feng Lin Mu, Wang Dao Zhan Yan Luo, and the others appeared in the altar.

The group looked at each other, their faces filled with disbelief.

"Damn it! What just happened?"

"Is it a game bug? Why did I suddenly die?"

"That guy must have hacked. We all died in an instant."

"Yes, definitely a hack, otherwise how could we die so fast!"

"Too absurd!"

At this moment, Feng Lin Mu also stepped out of the resurrection altar, his face just as dazed as the others.

"Could it be that the person's level is even higher than I imagined?"

He thought to himself and immediately checked the system notifications. He discovered that he had been killed by a player with an unknown ID, and the opponent had only used basic attacks.

"Could it be... a hidden god in the game?"

Feng Lin Mu thought.

Just then, the newly resurrected lackeys surrounded him.

"Big Brother! What do we do now? It seems we've kicked a steel plate!"

"Yes, Big Brother! Just now that guy only waved his staff once and killed us all. His level must be very high, he might be a folk expert!"

"Big Brother, do we need to report this to the higher-ups?"

"Big Brother!..."

The lackeys chattered incessantly around Feng Lin Mu.

"Shut up, all of you!"

Feng Lin Mu barked loudly.

The crowd stopped discussing and looked at him.

"A bunch of useless trash, what's the use of chattering? No matter what hidden god he is, could he be more powerful than our Guild Master, God Shi Tian?"

As soon as these words were spoken, the lackeys all nodded in agreement.

"Exactly! Hearing us declare the name of the New Era Guild and still daring to strike, I think he really doesn't know the height of the sky and the depth of the earth!"

"We must take revenge and teach him a lesson!"

"Right!..."

The crowd all showed anger, as if they weren't the ones who had initiated the attack.

Feng Lin Mu waved his hand to signal the crowd to stop, then continued:

"This matter concerns the face of our New Era, we must take it back. I believe he hasn't gone far yet. I've already asked my brother-in-law to call people from the guild headquarters. It won't be long before they arrive at this Beginner Village. When that time comes... hehe!"

"Big Brother is so cool! Your brother-in-law is actually from the headquarters!"

"We're set this time, Big Brother is the best!"

"Kill that hacker!"

…

Hearing his subordinates' flattery, a smug look appeared on Feng Lin Mu's face.
