A game world must inevitably have players arriving.
Otherwise, it wouldn't be called a game world.
Su Bai always understood from the start that the world he lived in was a game world. He also knew that sooner or later players would appear here.
They would arrive at the weakest level 1 form, then grow at an unimaginable speed for the world's creatures, plundering every resource they could find, killing every monster in sight to forge their own strength!
Simply running away was useless.
The players' greatest advantage was that they were players.
For Su Bai, this was the real world, but for the players, it was merely a game.
Even if characters in the game died, they could revive or simply create a new character and reappear in the world.
Given enough time, their footsteps would cover every corner of this world, discovering every monster within.
Given enough time, they would grow nearly without limit.
When tens of thousands of top-level players appeared, don't mention a newbie village boss like Su Bai, a mere level 12 warrior monster—even gods from the abyss or celestial temples would be slain by players if game rules permitted.
The only way was to quickly improve his own strength.
To grow stronger faster than the players!
Before the players grow strong, he must become an existence they can only look up to.
Before the players grow strong, he must become one of the highest beings in this world.
Perhaps only by doing so can he escape the fate of monsters.
In other words, if before players grow strong, he can become a great demon lord in the endless abyss, even if he eventually cannot escape the fate of being hunted by players, he will have lived longer than most monsters.
Grow, strengthen.
Grow and strengthen at the fastest speed!
This was Su Bai's only way out!
The essence from the corpses of dozens of Murlocs had been fully devoured by the Worm Demon Spear, leaving only piles of gray ash falling to the ground.
Stowing away the Worm Demon Spear, Su Bai and Little Worker Ant hurried toward the direction the Murlocs came from.
After five days, Su Bai had gathered most of the information about Poison Swamp but hadn't found the exact location of the Murloc Lord.
His chosen method was simply to kill!
Kill every Swamp Murloc that appeared before him!
Murloc Lords would never allow such mass slaughter of their people; as long as Su Bai killed enough, higher-level Murlocs would come to avenge.
By killing his way through, Su Bai would eventually encounter the Swamp Murloc king, the Murloc Lord.
As for whether the level 12 warrior-rank Su Bai could stand against the Murloc Lord...
What a joke!
After five evolutions and with four major Resistance skills, if he couldn't defeat a single Murloc Lord, he might as well stay in Gloomy Jungle and wait to die when players arrive.
Soon, Su Bai and Little Worker Ant encountered a second group of Swamp Murlocs.
Unlike the first batch, this group was clearly stronger.
At a glance, he noticed two Advanced Murlocs—agile-class Advanced Murloc patrolers.
The level 18 Murloc patrolers had high agility and considerable strength, stronger than Goblin Centurions, likely only rivaled by warrior-rank Goblins.
But to Su Bai, Murloc patrolers were still just cannon fodder.
When this group appeared, Su Bai instantly activated his maximum speed and rushed into the group before they could react.
Then, the Worm Demon Spear carved a streak of black light.
More than a dozen Murlocs had their heads severed, and their blue-scaled bodies collapsed to the ground.
After piling the corpses and devouring them with the Worm Demon Spear, Su Bai pressed on toward the Murlocs' origin.
An hour later, they met a third group of Swamp Murlocs, this time with more Advanced Murlocs.
Two hours later, they encountered a fourth group, featuring their first elite—a level 20 Murloc caster.
However, the poison and ice-based spells of the Murloc caster failed to harm Su Bai. One glance was enough for Su Bai to decapitate it, turning it into experience and Evolution Points.
Three hours...
Four hours...
After half a day, following the trail of groups of Swamp Murlocs, Su Bai finally found his target.
A sparse forest grew within the swamp, and in the center stood over a hundred simple wooden houses built around trees.
Though somewhat crude, these houses already resembled human dwellings more than the Goblin tents.
Over a thousand Swamp Murlocs lived in these wooden homes.
At the very center was the Murloc Lord—the king of the Swamp Murlocs!
"One level 25 boss Murloc Lord, three level 22 warrior-rank Murloc patrolers, over thirty level 20 elite Murlocs, and hundreds of advanced Murlocs..."
"The strength of Swamp Murlocs isn't weak, but compared to the war potential of the Gold-devouring Ant tribe, they still fall short."
Comparing the war potential of the Swamp Murlocs and Gold-devouring Ants in his mind, Su Bai ordered Little Worker Ant to wait in a nearby hiding spot while he stealthily approached the Murloc Lord using the shade cast by the trees.
