Chapter 60 - Inheriting The Mysterious Aura

*Inheritance Of The Mysterious Aura

*You have received a Mysterious Aura from Vack Dragoon. Should you choose to accept this strength, you would be required to share it with 50 players.

*The Mysterious Aura will be able to give the players a 200% increase in all stat points throughout the course of this war. The side effects are unknown, but it may also not show throughout your whole gaming experience.

This was the mission that the system had given SilentNoise. When he saw it, he knew that the game had not truly given up on him. Godly! Truly a godly skill! The increase in stat points would allow the players to become twice as strong as they usually are.

Now, as for sharing it with players, 18 will be given to his teammates and him, leaving him with 32. Silent was not planning to give this to the other big three alliances, for why would he want his competitors to get stronger. There was only one group he could pass this to.

Near the encampment of the big four alliances in the Undead Faction, laid bare an open ground that was used as a temporary rest point for miscellaneous teams. These were teams that were either formed during the war or just small teams that weren't part of an alliance. These were players that numbered to around 200.

Sato and his teammates were resting on the dirt ground as they waited for the second round of fighting to start.

"Haydennnnnnnn," Hobz was grabbing onto Hayden's leg as he begged him continuously. "Can I please leave the game to eat? I'm veryyyy hungry..."

"No." Hayden's answer was an immediate refusal.

"But..." Hobz soon made a teary face, while looking at Laia. "Big sis Laiaaaa. I'm hungryyyy. Can I get off to eat?"

"Just hold on for a little longer. We should try to survive and kill enemies for as long as we can. That way our rewards would be higher." Laia tried to coax the hungry Hobz. His brother, Hanz simply sat by a stump, enduring the hunger pangs.

From the past 2 hours, Sato had gotten to know his teammates more. Hobz, Hanz and Hayden were all 18 year old students that were attending university, whereas Laia was 26 years old and was already working.

The four of them were only playing this game for fun as far as Sato could tell. Within the past 2 hours, their contribution points had only allowed them to reach within the top 100s ranking, which is pretty for a casual player.

"Sato, what is your true level? Your point rankings is so high compared to us!"

"Luck I guess."

Sato, on the other hand, had reached the 20. How? While exploring with his team, he would first move head and look for any potential kills. He had managed to kill off any random outliers, both on the Human and Undead Faction, credits to his 1000 disguised mask.

"Shucks! I forgot that there was that political science report due early in the morning!" Hanz opened his eyes and stood up in surprise.

"Hahahaha you lazy sloth! Unlike you, I had finished all my reports yesterday!" Hobz decided to rub it on his twin brother. "Who asked you to play ROL till late at night yesterday?"

"Oh Hobz, you managed to complete the 10 structured questions for the Commutative Algebra and Algebraic Geometry?" Hayden asked, with a surprised look on his face.

"Commutative Algebra? We had homework for that???" Hobz then stood up in surprise, alongside his brother. Sato who watched from the background, chuckled lightly. What a funny pair of brothers.

Their conversation was soon cut short when a light commotion arose in the camp base. "Did you hear? SilentNoise from the DeathWing Guild had come with an amazing offer!"

"Oh, let's head over for a listen." The curious bunch of siblings decided to tag along the crowd. They reached the back, noticing that SilentNoise was preparing to give a speech.

"Hello fellow players. Most of you here should know who I am and so, do trust my words when I say it." Silent had attracted everyone's attention. "I just went over to visit the Head of the Dragoon Family. Unfortunately, he had passed on from this world."

"What? The general has passed on? Are you serious? What are we going to do about this war now?"

"This time we are screwed for sure! Why did we even decide to wage war on the Human Faction? What a waste of time!"

"Does this mean that this is the end of Trentham city and the Dragoon Family? This sucks!"

The commotion in the camp had reached an all-time high. Everyone only calmed down when SilentNoise spoke again. "Quiet down everyone! Even though he had left this world, he did leave me something to impart on select individuals!"

Raising out his hand, Silent summoned out the powerful aura as it levitated on his hand. He had even shared the effects of the aura to show that he wasn't lying to then. "This is the remaining power of General Vack. He had instructed me, while on his deathbed, to give the players extra strength to battle in the war!"

"I will be selecting 32 players amongst you all to inherit this power. Now who would like it?" Immediately as Silent said the question, the group of players cheered and roared in excitement. Some people even wanted to climb onto the tree stump, in hopes of stealing it out of Silent's hand, but his guildmates barricaded around him.

The sibling gang joined in the fray, trying to fight for the aura. Only Sato remained still. His eyebrows furrowed as he looked at the aura closely.

Ever since he had gotten close enough to SilentNoise, his heart started to have an uneasy feeling. It felt similar to when he had fought against the Demons back in the Beginner Village. Behind that strong power, was most definitely a Demon essence!
