Online Game: Low Drop Rate? I Have a Guaranteed Drop System!-Chapter 187: Killing Bachel, Failed Nation-Building

Bachel was gripped by fear, having already witnessed Lisa’s fate, and knowing that if he couldn’t break free, he’d share the same end.

Not far away, on the city wall, Douglas stood holding the Demon-Refining Pot, watching this scene with eager anticipation.

He was still frustrated that the sudden appearance of that crystal coffin had rescued Lisa’s Divine Soul; he was determined to claim the Demon God Bachel’s Divine Soul for himself.

"Ancestor, what should we do?" Dorian asked, his expression grave. "Bachel probably can’t escape. If he dies, the quest restrictions will be lifted. Johnnie will definitely come after us. Should we activate the Nine Netherworlds God-locking Formation?"

But Douglas shook his head. "No need. The Nine Netherworlds God-locking Formation is designed for dealing with gods. It’s not very effective against players. This is our trump card, and we can’t reveal it yet."

"Then what about Vortanis City and the newly founded Skyspire country?" Dorian knew that without using the Nine Netherworlds God-locking Formation, they had no way to handle Johnnie, and their nation-building plan would surely be destroyed.

Douglas was also unwilling, but he still said, "We’ll have to give up on building a country for now. With support from the Demon race, once the suppression on Universe Continent disappears in seven days and the gods descend, that will be the real disaster."

"Alright, but it’s a shame the Induction Compass ended up with Johnnie." Dorian was furious inside.

The Induction Compass could sense the location of the Map of Heaven and Earth fragments, as well as the aura of other ancient artifacts.

It was the Induction Compass that had led them to the Demon-Refining Pot.

As for those Half-life Lotus and the Map of Heaven and Earth fragments, he really didn’t care.

Those things might seem precious to Johnnie, but in his own hands, they weren’t of much use.

Douglas said nothing, instead keeping his eyes glued to the battlefield and ready to act at any moment.

At this point, Bachel was in mortal danger, surrounded by several flying swords. He tried multiple times to break through Black Tortoise’s encirclement, but it was all in vain.

-36,013,000.

-47,140,000.

...

Damage numbers kept flashing above Bachel’s head, and his Health Points had already dropped below one billion.

Especially with Douglas eyeing him like a tiger from the sidelines, Bachel felt an intense sense of danger.

"Human, I’m willing to hand over twelve Fossils of Creation. How about we call it quits?" Bachel pleaded in terror, taking the initiative to beg for mercy.

Johnnie sneered coldly and wasn’t moved at all; instead, his attacks became even more ferocious.

If it were before, he might have considered the offer of twelve Fossils of Creation.

But now, his target was the Doe Family. Only by killing the Demon God Bachel and lifting the quest restriction could he go after the Doe Family.

And with the power of God-killing, slaying a god would boost his overall attributes by ten percent. There was no way he’d let a Demon God go.

"Damn it!" Bachel was in complete disarray. Every attempt to break through Black Tortoise’s defenses was forcefully repelled.

At this point, his health points had dropped below one hundred million. Facing Johnnie’s terrifying damage, he was completely unable to resist.

Death was now inevitable.

"Human, going against the Demonic Creatures will end badly for you. You’ll regret this!" he roared in defiance, but as the flying sword swept past, his remaining tens of millions of health points were wiped out instantly.

[Announcement: Player Johnnie has slain the Demon God Bachel. Four basic attributes +10,000, Reputation +100,000.]

...

Three more system announcements rang out, and Johnnie’s God-killing power was triggered again, raising his overall attributes by another ten percent. His strength soared once more.

And with Bachel’s death, he dropped twelve more Fossils of Creation, a divine essence, and a Soul-Shattering Stone.

Johnnie was surprised; he hadn’t expected that killing a Demon God would also drop a Soul-Shattering Stone.

Last time, when he was trapped in the Shadow Abyss, slaying a million Demonic Creatures had triggered his Lucky Master class and guaranteed a Soul-Shattering Stone drop.

Now, he had already collected five Soul-Shattering Stones. With five more, he could craft a complete Soul Stone.

A Soul Stone this rare definitely had some special purpose.

Buzz!

Just then, Bachel’s Divine Soul shot out, desperately trying to flee into the distance.

"Hmph, you’re not getting away!" Douglas snorted coldly and struck without hesitation. The enormous phantom of the Demon-Refining Pot swept out and instantly swallowed Bachel’s Divine Soul.

"Despicable humans, you’ll die a miserable death!" Bachel cried out in terror, cursing in rage.

He didn’t have a treasure like Lisa’s crystal coffin—he was completely powerless against the Demon-Refining Pot.

Bachel’s Divine Soul was sucked in and refined by the Demon-Refining Pot, unable to resist.

"Demon-Refining Pot!" In the distance, the woman in purple, who was being attacked by Azure Dragon and Maiev, caught sight of the scene and her expression changed slightly.

"Maiev, until we meet again!" She stopped tangling with the two of them, purple light swirling around her, moving with power and agility as she blasted Azure Dragon and Maiev back, then fled into the distance.

Maiev watched as the purple-clad woman escaped, frowning deeply but making no move to pursue.

That woman in purple was extremely strong—even with Azure Dragon’s help, Maiev wasn’t confident they could keep her here.

Johnnie quickly picked up the loot from Bachel’s corpse and walked over to the two of them, asking curiously, "Who was that woman in purple?"

He could sense that her strength was at least on par with Azure Dragon.

Maiev spoke up, "Master, she’s the Saintly Lady of the Nalorin Family. She comes from a powerful family on Universe Continent—the Nalorin Family. We have some history, but I didn’t expect that woman to still be alive."

Nalorin Family?

Johnnie was puzzled; he had never heard of the Nalorin Family before, but from the name, it seemed to have something to do with the Dragon Kingdom.

It was a shame that the woman in purple had escaped; if he had managed to kill her, his strength surely would have increased even further.

Johnnie didn’t dwell on it any longer and turned his gaze toward the Doe Family.

"Now, it’s your turn," he said coldly.He flew with the Controlled Sword and hovered above the city, looking down at the powerful members of the Doe Family below.

Other than the Demon race experts, the rest were just ordinary players—completely vulnerable.

Even Lucius, the stage9 legendary expert of the Demon race, looked extremely grim at this moment and didn’t dare to make a move.

Johnnie could even kill gods; taking him down would be a piece of cake for Johnnie.

"Johnnie, don’t push things too far," Dorian said coldly, fixing his gaze on him.

"Hmph." Johnnie snorted disdainfully and said icily, "If you want to keep Skyspire country, fine—hand over the Celestial Mirror and the Demon-Refining Pot."

He had set his sights on those two ancient artifacts.

The Celestial Mirror, in particular, was especially important to him.

Those one hundred thousand Half-life Lotus plants had been traded to him in-game; if he wanted to bring them into the real world, he absolutely needed to get the Celestial Mirror.

"In your dreams!" Dorian threatened coldly, "Johnnie, if you lay a hand on my Doe Family today, I guarantee you’ll never build a country either."

"Heh, you give yourself too much credit," Johnnie replied with a mocking smile, not interested in wasting words, and struck without hesitation.

He unleashed the Technique of Swordsmanship for Controlling Swords, and at the same time, the Five Elements Technique swirled around him, blanketing the city walls.

"Go!" Dorian didn’t dare hesitate for a second. He summoned the Celestial Mirror, and a powerful spatial force enveloped the Doe Family and several Demon race experts, causing their figures to vanish instantly.

Boom, boom...

A series of explosions rang out as the Five Elements Technique and flying swords rained down, instantly destroying the surrounding city walls and killing any players within range.

Johnnie watched coldly, feeling a bit helpless inside.

Without a way to seal off space, it was very difficult to kill Dorian.

Even if he could lock down the space, Dorian had the Bloodthirsty Void-Splitting Sword, which could break through any spatial blockade.

Johnnie put the matter out of his mind, flew into the city, and directly destroyed the Vortanis City altar.

[Announcement: Player Johnnie has destroyed the Vortanis City altar. Skyspire country failed to be established.]

...

Three more system announcements echoed in the air.

The first player-built nation on Universe Continent had ended in failure.

Johnnie headed to the resurrection altar and found Macbeth.

"Johnnie, here’s the reward I promised you," Macbeth said knowingly, reluctantly handing over two Fossils of Creation.

Johnnie took them and asked, "Do you know where Dorian and the others escaped to?"

Macbeth shook his head and replied helplessly, "The Doe Family doesn’t trust me anymore. Or rather, I’m not worth much to them these days, so they barely reach out to me."

He paused and looked at Johnnie before continuing, "I’d like to join your faction."

He knew perfectly well that without the Doe Family’s protection, he was no match for Johnnie and might as well make peace.

Otherwise, if he wanted to make any progress on Universe Continent, it would be nearly impossible.

Johnnie looked at him, his brows knitting slightly.

To be honest, he didn’t like this guy, and even felt an urge to get rid of him.

Still, the man had his uses—at the very least, Macbeth’s Apocalypse Group held considerable influence, and maybe Johnnie could use him to unite Western players and fight back against the alien invasion of Universe Continent.

Johnnie said calmly, "I’ll consider it. I’ll contact you when the time comes. For now, just head back."

"Alright, thank you." Macbeth breathed a sigh of relief and immediately led the elite members of Apocalypse Group away.

"Johnnie, isn’t it about time we built our own country?" Black Tortoise walked over and asked.

Johnnie nodded; this had been their plan all along.

"Senior, are you confident you can withstand an attack from the gods?" He was a bit uncertain—gods were powerful, and he only had three god-level subordinates. If more than three showed up, they might not be able to hold out.

Black Tortoise nodded and said, "As long as Universe Continent’s suppression of power hasn’t completely faded, we can handle any gods that come our way. But if that suppression disappears and a flood of gods descends, and they target our nation, things could get tricky."

Johnnie felt this whole situation was going to be a challenge.

But building a country was something that had to be done.

Maybe, by founding their nation now, they could slay a few more gods and boost their strength as much as possible.

Johnnie was keenly aware of his own weakness.

Right now, he was unbeatable among the players, but his goal wasn’t just to surpass them—he wanted to face the gods and protect Earth.

Even so, he wasn’t growing fast enough.

"Let’s go. We’ll head back to The Chinese City first." With a thought, Johnnie stored Azure Dragon and the others in the Map of Heaven and Earth, then flew by sword toward the nearest city.

Building a country was a big deal, and he needed to return to The Chinese City to discuss it with Dylan.

"Master, there’s something off about Maiev!" Suddenly, a voice rang out in his mind—it was Coco, the spirit of the Map of Heaven and Earth.
