Sensing the fiery blade that was too close for comfort, the middle-aged man broke out into a cold sweat, and his lips went pale. He hurriedly said, “Schoolmate, don’t be impulsive... we can talk things over...”

Link took a look at him. Then, his eyes suddenly focused, and he asked, “You are Zhang Quansheng?”

Zhang Quansheng was the Dean of Dragon City No. 1 Middle School. He was a greedy and lustful person. He played with his authority adeptly and laid his hands on the school’s female students and teachers more than once. However, he had always escaped the law because of his powerful background.

Zhang Quansheng was dazed for a while, then excitedly nodded and said, “It’s me... Schoolmate, it’s good that you know who I am! Being the Dean of Dragon City Middle School, I must take up responsibility for the safety of the school’s teachers and students at a time like this! However, we have limited manpower. We need to unite all the strength we have in order to defeat those monsters!”

Hearing this, Link’s mouth curled into a slight smile and asked, “So?”

“Schoolmate, if you have to trust me! Hand over your sword and the angel to the school! The school will reasonably manage and distribute these resources. This way, the school will definitely be able to lead all of us to safety!”

“Hand them over to the school?” The mocking look in Link’s eyes became even more obvious. “Are you serious?”

Hearing this, Zhang Quansheng’s face went stiff. Displeased, he said, “Schoolmate, all of us should let go of our selfishness and unite together in such a life and death crisis like this. The school has groomed you for so many years. Shouldn’t you think of repaying the school, even for just a bit?”

Link laughed slightly and said, “I did...” Saying so, he applied more pressure on the sword [Red Sky].

The middle-aged man was instantly terrified, his limbs going cold and soft. If it wasn’t because of the sharp sword on his neck, he would probably be unable to stand properly now.

“Link, don’t be impulsive!” In the crowd, a female voice grabbed Link’s attention.

Link turned his head to take a look. Surprise suddenly filled his eyes. “Teacher Yang?”

This was his headteacher, Yang Xuerou. She was still quite young, about 25 to 26 years old. She looked quite pretty and had a kind heart. She was smart, generous, considerate, and a typical elder sister-like beauty.

Link’s parents died when he was still young. Therefore, he was a withdrawn person from a young age. It was only because of Yang Xuerou that his life gradually lit up.

She gave Link a warmth that he had never felt before.

His memories of her in the previous life were already very distant because she had died a cruel death on this campus right at the start of the apocalypse. She didn’t die in the hands of the dark creatures but to humans.

When the [Doomsday Online] game started, the world’s order collapsed. All laws and morals were lost. In the beginning, humans still had their most basic sanity and bottom line intact. However, when everyone’s mental spirit became highly tensed up and needed to fight for their lives at any moment, many people became the craziest beasts in this world.

The previous female survivors became a channel for these scums to vent. Since the women were soft and weak, they could satisfy their animal desires easily.

These women’s screams and yells would only stimulate the most sensitive points in these scum’s hearts deeply.

Yang Xuerou was renowned because she was the most beautiful teacher in Dragon City. Thus, she became one of the first victims to suffer such a fate.

In the end, to preserve her innocence, she gave her all into finding a chance to suicide by banging her head into a wall, successfully killing herself.

This Zhang Quansheng was one of the culprits for her death.

This incident also became the key to opening the door of killing for the [Asura Summoner]—a figure who instilled fear in the people of his previous life.

The reason that Link was addressed as [Asura Summoner] had nothing to do with his profession. This name was a result of the massive massacres he committed! He had no power or influence. He didn’t have a strong background in the Alliance, nor did he have huge amounts of resources to strengthen himself.

What caused people to be surprised was that he was like a lone wolf walking along the edge of hell, forcefully rising to prominence amongst the countless [Doomsday Online] players by leaving a blood path in his wake.

He became a pinnacle existence that countless people could only look up to.

After ten years of killing, he had long ago become an asura. In his eyes, human lives really had no value. To him, even the dark creatures’ lives had more value than human lives! After all, the dark creatures could be tamed through certain methods and would fully listen to his commands afterward.

As for humans... no matter how close they were to each other, there was always the probability of betraying each other.

Link took a look at Zhang Quansheng, then took a look at Yang Xuerou—who was looking at him earnestly, and an absurd-like smile appeared in his eyes. To Link, it seemed so absurd that Yang Xuerou was speaking up for Zhang Quansheng.

Even though many ugly and disgusting things hadn’t happened in this lifetime yet, Link wasn’t preparing to reason with them.

...

He looked at Yang Xuerou, and the sword made a beautiful arc in the air.

A huge head flew into the sky. It belonged to Zhang Quansheng.

No blood splattered out because [Red Sky]’s [Burn Out] effect directly roasted the body into a charred corpse, which quickly turned into ashes.

...

“AH—”

The faces of those present all showed horror and shock. They never thought that Link would really choose to kill Zhang Quansheng.

“Good!” A while later, someone suddenly cheered and said, “I have disliked that old tortoise for a long time. He normally acts so arrogantly. He didn’t behave like a teacher at all and also molested the female students! He deserved to die...”

“Exactly! In the years that he was dean, he never did anything good. However, he did all sorts of disgusting things. He should have died long ago!”

“Well done. If it were me, I would have killed him too!”

...

“Link... you!” Yang Xuerou covered her mouth, looking at this scene in disbelief.

Link slowly walked over to her, his eyes insipid. “He deserved to die!”

He didn’t say why, but Yang Xuerou seemed to understand Link’s emotions very easily when she looked into his eyes.

Zhang Quansheng was a lustful person. He had coveted Yang Xuerou for a very long time. Yang Xuerou was well aware of this, and she herself severely disliked him too.

She asked Link to stop because she had yet to jump out from the framework of a society ruled by laws. To her, killing a person would bring big trouble to the killer. Link was her student; she didn’t wish for Link to pay a price for a moment of impulsiveness. It wasn’t worth it!

Now, looking into Link’s insipid eyes, she was unable to speak the many words of exhortation she had in her heart. Her instincts told her that it was better to choose to believe in Link.

...

Looking at Yang Xuerou, Link suddenly thought of a question. “Teacher Yang, what’s your profession?”

By now, [Doomsday Online] had officially started. All those who still survived would have their own attribute screen.

Link taught Yang Xuerou how to open up her attribute screen and how to share it with him.

Hm? Link’s eyes lit up.

On Yang Xuerou’s attribute screen, the words [Holy Priest] were written in the profession column! The [Holy Priest] profession was a branch of the [Priest] profession. It was one of the hidden professions with an extremely high grade!

[Holy Priest] was a Legend-grade profession! A [Holy Priest] possessed very powerful healing abilities. At higher levels, they even had a chance of awakening an incredible skill—[Greater Resurrection Skill]! It could revive the dead by reversing and distorting the flow of Yin and Yang.

Just this skill alone was enough to cause a commotion in the entire human alliance.

Link never expected that this young teacher—who had died a cruel death early in his previous life—actually had such an overpowered profession.

If she lived on, she would definitely hold one of the Supreme 12 Seats of the human alliance, which would be created in the years to come.

Link took a deep breath and instructed her with a solemn expression, “Teacher Yang, never let anyone else know what your profession is from now on, no matter how close they are to you!”

“Why?” Yang Xuerou was puzzled.

Link assertively said, “No why! Just do as I say!” He was well aware of the terrifying consequences that would follow once others knew of Yang Xuerou’s profession.

Those top powers would do everything they could to obtain her.

In this apocalyptic world, human lives were the most worthless. The most valuable thing... was also human lives!

Hearing his words, Yang Xuerou became slightly dazed. Her impression of Link was that he was a more introverted kind of boy. He didn’t like to talk and was not good at interacting, but was so sensible for his age that it caused others to feel heart pain for him.

She never thought that he would say these kinds of words to her in this kind of tone. It felt really unfamiliar to her. After a brief silence, Yang Xuerou smiled and said, “Okay!”

She still decided to believe in Link.

ROAR—

Then, a sky-shaking roar came from the teaching building beside them at that moment.

A headless horseman riding a tall horse dashed out from the three-story-tall building and landed in front of them.

It was an Undead Knight—a stage-two dark creature!
