Online Game: I Started with Max Charisma and Caught the Goddess's Eye

Chapter 29: The Siege of Riverfall City, Double Experience!

"Holy crap, is this for real? This guy's damage is more than three times mine!"

Ben, the Vice President of the Snowfall Guild, stared in disbelief.

He was already level 10, placing him among the top tier of players. As an Assassin, his single-target burst damage was among the highest across all classes, yet, at the same level, Luca's damage was multiple times higher than his!

This is insane!

Ada's beautiful eyes swept over Luca, and she shook her head slightly, saying, "This Luca isn't a normal class. It's likely a rare or hidden class, and his gear is exceptional. It's normal for his damage to be higher than yours."

Ada, who controlled the entire Snowfall Guild and was currently competing with The World Guild for talent in Riverfall City, naturally had a keen eye. She immediately recognized that Luca was different from ordinary players.

A fierce battle intent flared in Ben's eyes.

He proposed, "Sis, this Luca is definitely a top-tier player! We should invite him to join our guild!"

Ben had watched a video of Luca fighting on Wind Plain. He had already thought that this guy was stronger than most veteran players—his on-the-spot reactions and timing were not something an average player could possess.

But now, seeing Luca in live combat, he realized he had still underestimated him.

This guy's skill level is probably at a professional standard!

Ben couldn't help but feel excited.

He loved dueling with expert players!

Ada instinctively wanted to adjust her glasses, then remembered this was a game world.

She lowered her hand and nodded slightly, "If there's a chance, ask him if he's willing to join Snowfall Guild. As long as his demands aren't too excessive, we can agree to them."

With countless major investors now involved in Eternal Game, competition for top players among the major guilds was fierce. Professional players with even a bit of fame were being offered sky-high prices—finding a top-tier player was incredibly difficult.

Even with the backing of Blues Family's company, Snowfall Guild was in a tough spot. Now that they had come across a player like Luca, they had to make an effort to recruit him.

On the other side, Celephais, the Vice President of The World Guild, had a different idea.

He eyed Luca's Black Gold Robe.

His gaze shifted slightly as he instructed the man beside him, "His gear is pretty good. Go ask him if he'll sell it for a million. If he's willing, offer him a spot in The World Guild and a monthly salary of 100,000."

Celephais's tone was calm, but it made the nearby players' hearts skip a beat.

A million for a piece of gear?!

And a monthly salary of 100,000?!

This guy's luck is off the charts!

The players around them were filled with envy and jealousy.

The World Guild, being one of the top ten guilds in Summer Country, backed by the James financial conglomerate, offers salaries to its members that surpass those of many corporate white-collar workers. If anyone could join The World Guild, they'd probably wake up laughing from their dreams!

Luca, of course, had no idea what others were thinking.

In the dense, towering forest, his figure moved swiftly among a group of Goblins.

With the skill "Wind Walk" activated, Luca's speed increased dramatically.

The surrounding Goblins couldn't do anything to stop him; they could only helplessly watch as the Black Steel Spear left deep gashes on their bodies.

"Roar! Roar! Roar!!!"

Amidst the splattering blood, the Goblins roared in anger, swinging their machetes and spiked clubs wildly at Luca.

Unfortunately, they were far too slow and couldn't even touch a hair on Luca's head.

Cassman watch Luca move like a phantom among the monsters.

He couldn't help but admire, "This kid doesn't seem like a newbie at all. No wonder he caught the attention of Guild Leaders Franklin and Lucia."

Catherine, standing nearby, nodded in agreement, "Luca the Witch Doctor is indeed impressive!"

When they first came to Beast Forest, Catherine had already felt that Luca didn't seem like a newcomer.

His combat experience was richer than that of many veteran soldiers.

More importantly, Luca's strength was improving at an astonishing rate!

In just a day or two, his power had already surpassed that of Kaman and the others, which was incredibly frightening!

"Maybe it won't be long before I'm no match for him," Catherine thought, startled by the idea that had suddenly crossed her mind.

She had spent years elevating her strength to Silver-grade. If Luca could really surpass her in such a short time, it would be utterly absurd!

Meanwhile, in an inconspicuous corner among the players...

A small, cloaked figure hid behind a tree, quietly recording Luca's battle.

Watching monster after monster fall to Luca, she clenched her little fists, her eyes full of admiration, exclaiming excitedly, "As expected of my idol! He's amazing!"

This person was none other than the forum user known as "ShadowCat," whose real name was Malina.

Thanks to the popularity of her last post, she had become one of the first gaming content creators in Eternal Game, specializing in capturing interesting in-game videos. Now, she already had forty to fifty thousand followers.

Since filming a few videos of Luca, Malina had become his die-hard fan.

She even spent a fortune to create a fan club for Luca.

Though, at the moment, she was the only member of that fan club...

"Roar! Roar! Roar! Roar!!!"

At that moment, countless roars suddenly echoed from deep within Beast Forest.

Many people looked toward the sound and immediately gasped in shock.

Suddenly, hundreds of monsters were surging toward the Iron Mountain army and the players like a tidal wave!

These monsters were mostly above level 10, with many elite monsters among them.

Their eyes were blood-red, and their bodies radiated bloodlust and savagery. The sheer ferocity of the hundreds of monsters gathering together was so overwhelming that many players, experiencing such a scene for the first time, felt their legs turn to jelly.

One player, his face full of tension, muttered, "Why do these monsters feel so different from the ones outside?"

The difference between the monsters in Beast Forest and those on Wind Plain was stark.

He was even starting to think that the club-wielding rabbits outside Riverfall City were starting to look cute by comparison!

These monsters were clearly not on the same level as the ones they'd encountered before!

"It seems Miss Sophia and Luca were right. Luckily, we noticed in time!" Cassman, realizing the unusual nature of these monsters, felt a mix of relief and rising determination. His eyes flashed with killing intent.

These damn beasts! If they break out of Beast Forest, who knows how many people will die because of it!

"Everyone, prepare for battle!" Cassman shouted the order, drawing the massive sword from his back. Golden streams of energy began to swirl around him, and a powerful aura erupted from his body.

It was the signature skill of the Knight: "Battle Will"!

"Kid, if you can't hold on, don't forget to call for help!" Cassman warned Luca, then with a powerful stomp, the ground beneath him exploded, and his burly figure shot forward like a cannonball, leading the charge into the horde of monsters!

Catherine and the others, not wanting to be outdone, drew their weapons and charged into the fray.

Noticing the commotion, Luca's eyes grew cold.

These monsters were clearly affected by the nearby node, their power enhanced.

He could only hope that Sophia would quickly bring in reinforcements from the city. The longer they delayed, the more unpredictable the situation could become.

As Luca was thinking this, a game notification suddenly popped up in front of him.

[Ding! Riverfall City players have triggered the main city quest "Siege of Riverfall City." All Riverfall City players are eligible to participate!]

[Quest Description: A large number of players from Riverfall City have entered Beast Forest, disturbing the monsters within!]

[Quest Rewards: Players will receive double experience for killing monsters. Achieving a certain number of kills will earn you reputation points. The top ten players with the most reputation points will receive exclusive rewards after the quest ends, with higher rankings earning better rewards.]

It wasn't just Luca; the notification appeared in front of all the other players as well.

The players immediately erupted in excitement.

"No way, we triggered a large-scale quest!"

"Holy crap! Double experience?!"

"Hahaha, this was totally worth it! If players from the other main cities find out, they'll be so jealous!"

"For the glory of the Kingdom of Clinton! Charge, brothers!"

"Charge! Charge! For Catherine! Protect Sophia!"

...

After triggering the main city quest, the once-cowardly players seemed to be injected with adrenaline.

They raised their weapons and, shouting with excitement, charged toward the monsters.

At this moment, they were completely different from their previous selves!
