Online Game: I'm in MapleStory

The next moment, a notification message dominated the world chat box.

Congratulations to Adventurer Chen Fade for successfully killing the first regional boss monster in the MapleStory world in the early stage. The World Will congratulates you and rewards you with a professional weapon!

It appeared ten times in a row, directly dominating the virtual panels in front of adventurers around the world who were still upgrading in the MapleStory world.

Suddenly, without warning, a dazzling light poured down from above his head, rushing straight towards Chen Fade. The light was as fast as lightning, instantly enveloping him.

At that moment, Gou Taiyu felt the spark deep in his soul tremble violently, as if touched by a powerful force. However, this tremor only lasted for a moment, and then quickly returned to calm, as if nothing had happened.

At the same time, something unexpected happened: the unassuming backpack Chen Fade was carrying began to glow with a strange light. Then, an exquisite and unique box quietly appeared on top of the backpack.

The box is decorated with dotted patterns all around, and these patterns are cleverly formed into beautiful purple bows, giving people a mysterious and charming feeling.

"It's finally over! This brutal battle has finally come to an end! Of the 80,000-man hunting group, only a dozen of us are left alive..."

For a moment, the survivors stared at the advertisement prompt that popped up in the world chat box, feeling mixed emotions.

They were both grateful and happy to have survived, but at the same time they were filled with grief and sorrow for their deceased companions. These two completely different emotions intertwined, leaving everyone's face with a complex and difficult-to-decipher expression.

However, Chen Fade did not indulge in the joy or sorrow of the atmosphere like the others. He turned around without hesitation and ran towards the foot of the mountain, heading straight for the Mushroom King's body.

Along the way, his eyes remained fixed on the huge, shattered body not far ahead. When he finally reached his destination, he immediately began to carefully search the surrounding area for any possible dropped objects.

Soon, his attention was drawn to a unique area. Amidst the shattered corpse of the Mushroom King boss, a multicolored ball of light quietly hovered.

The ball of light emitted a soft and alluring glow, as if beckoning him. Seeing this, Chen Fade stretched out his right hand without hesitation and reached straight towards the ball of light.

Congratulations on successfully obtaining 2000 Maple Leaf Coins! In addition, you also received a special piece of equipment: the Elf Pendant; 20 precious skill book fragments, various equipment and weapons, various magical potions, and more...

Just as Chen Fade touched the ball of light, a system message suddenly popped up.

Hearing this good news, the corners of his mouth lifted slightly, revealing a satisfied smile. However, his movements did not stop for a moment, and he continued to search among the wreckage on the ground.

"Special equipment has appeared!"

When Chen Fade saw the elf pendant, an unexpected expression appeared on his face. After being surprised, he took it out and checked the item's attribute details.

After Chen Fade carefully read the incredibly detailed description of the Elf Pendant, the corners of his mouth couldn't help but curl up slightly, outlining a hint of satisfaction. Clearly, he was filled with joy and satisfaction for this newly acquired piece of equipment.

However, he did not indulge in this joy for too long. Immediately afterwards, he reached for the backpack behind him without hesitation and took out another exquisite box.

The box was tied tightly with a lavender bow and decorated with floral patterns, making it particularly eye-catching. After all, this was the precious reward he had received for successfully securing the first kill!

Without even a second's hesitation, or even a moment's pause to take a deep breath, Chen Fade eagerly reached out and opened the mysterious box. The moment the lid opened, a dazzling light suddenly burst forth, seemingly illuminating the entire world.

At the same time, the world chat box exploded, instantly dominated by a series of news about new weapons. People marveled at this sudden surprise, while Chen Fade stood there, his face filled with pride and excitement.

【Black mop】

Required level: 30

Required Strength: 130

Required Occupation: Novice

Weapon Classification: Spear

Attack speed: relatively slow

Attack Damage: +220

"Oh my God! Who is this Chen Fade? He was able to successfully hunt down the Mushroom King and even got a god-level weapon! This is simply incredible!" someone shouted in surprise.

"Look, this weapon called 'Black Mop' actually increases the attack power by 220! You know, the highest attack power of weapons currently available for the warrior profession is only a little over 50 points!" Another person's voice was filled with shock and envy.

However, someone soon laughed out loud, "Haha, this is killing me! Hey guys, calm down and look carefully! That's a novice weapon! We've already reached level 10 and completed our job change. This novice weapon is completely useless to us!"

"That's right! It's such a pity that such a weapon with seemingly top-notch attributes is just a useless mop in the end!" Another person echoed.

For a moment, chat boxes around the world were abuzz with people engaging in heated discussions about this "black mop," with all sorts of mockery and lament pouring out.

"I was originally looking forward to seeing a truly earth-shattering weapon of the highest quality, but who knew that what I got in the end was a top-notch rotten mop! Hahaha, it's really hilarious!" Someone sneered mercilessly.

"Brothers, I sincerely thank you all for your tacit cooperation during this period! Our mission has now been successfully accomplished! Next, please be patient. I will transfer the money to your bank accounts one by one according to the previously agreed-upon remuneration amount!"

Chen Fade spoke excitedly, but he didn't even glance at the world chat box.

After quickly checking and sorting out the fruitful harvest of this operation, he threw away the slightly worn razor, picked up the black mop beside him, and grinned.

"Everyone, please add Ah Xiao quickly. If there is similar work to be done in the future, I will let Ah Xiao contact you directly!"

After saying this, as if suddenly remembering something, Chen Fade hurriedly asked the remaining elites to add Brother Xiao's contact information. After everything was arranged, he set off alone on his way back.

On the way back, a sturdy wild boar wearing hard iron armor suddenly jumped out from the grass on the side of the road and blocked Chen Fade's way.

This is the dreaded Ironclad Pig! However, facing this sudden threat, Chen Fade was not afraid at all, but instead a hint of excitement flashed in his eyes.

He held the mop tightly in both hands, raised it high, and then used all his strength to smash it hard at the armored pig. There was a loud "bang" and the armored pig fell straight to the ground without even having time to scream, raising a cloud of dust.

Immediately afterwards, a ball of light emitting faint light slowly floated out from above the body of the armored pig.

At the same time, on the planet called Blue Star, Wu Ming was lying quietly on the extremely comfortable big bed belonging to the Blue Star world, immersed in a sweet dream and sleeping very soundly.

The first gentle, warm rays of morning sunlight, like golden threads, gently passed through the cracks in the window, spilling into every corner of the room. At that moment, as if gently awakened by the sunlight, Wu Ming finally slowly opened his eyes, slowly waking from that intoxicating dream.

However, on that night when Wu Ming was completely unaware, while he was still sound asleep, two powerful teams had successfully hunted down two terrifying bosses that existed in the MapleStory world!

At this moment, Wu Ming, still a little sleepy after waking up, slowly got out of bed and began to methodically carry out a series of morning activities. He brushed his teeth, washed his face, and started making the pre-made breakfast he was going to enjoy.

There was a crisp "ding" sound, and it turned out that the microwave oven had finished working. Wu Ming, who had just finished brushing his teeth and washing his face, walked towards the kitchen.

He brought out a plate full of steaming hot dumplings, took out a bottle of ice-cold soda from the refrigerator, and then walked straight to the sofa in the living room.

Wu Ming plopped down on the sofa. With his left hand, he expertly forked over steamed dumplings, shoving them into his mouth. With his right hand, he clutched his phone, intently checking the latest news.

"Breaking news! Gou Taiyu defeated the Warrior Tribe's Dryad King, the leader and boss, and successfully obtained the Eternal Weapon! This feat has undoubtedly made him the center of attention!"

"Shocking news keeps coming! Just three hours after Gou Taiyu defeated the leader, another mysterious figure unexpectedly slew the Mushroom King boss of Shooter Village!"

"It's unbelievable! One hundred thousand people from an entire dimension perished because of Chen Fade!"

"Chen Fade is simply a demon! To hunt down the Mushroom King, he even sacrificed the only chance for resurrection for everyone in the entire dimension! And all he pursued was a worthless piece of junk! (Hint below the image: Watch the ad to refresh the detailed image of the weapon)."

"What's even worse is that a popular celebrity openly expressed his willingness to marry Chen Fade! How crazy is this?"

. . .

Wu Ming was scrolling through his phone out of boredom. The screen was filled with all kinds of posts and comments about Chen Fade.

Obviously, most of this overwhelming information stemmed from the fact that Chen Fade had hired someone to quickly overthrow the Mushroom King. For a time, all kinds of rumors about Chen Fade were rampant, filling people's vision.

After searching through countless posts, Wu Ming finally found the true identity of these two exclusive weapons. When he compared them with his own magic wand, a bitter feeling welled up in his heart.

Because Wu Ming suddenly discovered that the properties or special features of the magic wand in his hand were nothing compared to those of the two exclusive weapons, and were not on the same level at all.

"No wonder this class-exclusive weapon sparked so much criticism. Now I see it's truly worthy of its reputation! In my opinion, that guy named Chen Fade is probably just a newbie who hasn't completed his class change yet, which is why he got this black mop!"

Wu Ming muttered to himself, unable to hide his envy for the owners of the two exclusive weapons.

"It's truly astonishing! It's actually a growth weapon! If I could possess such a divine weapon and was an archer, I'd probably be drooling over it and dreaming of it!"

Wu Ming secretly compared the difference between the two weapons while silently pondering in his heart. At this moment, his eyes were always fixed on the two exclusive weapons shining with mysterious light, and he couldn't move away for a long time.

"Based on the current situation, there's a high probability that a powerful boss is hiding near almost every village! Look, the Snail King, the Mushroom King, and the Wood Demon King have already appeared. So, perhaps the only remaining undiscovered boss is the mysterious boss in the abandoned city and the magical forest!

However, some people say that the City in the Forest also counts as a village. Oh, this is really giving me a headache!

Thinking of this, after completing a detailed comparison of various weapons, Wu Ming once again focused his thoughts on the boss's whereabouts, and all kinds of strange thoughts began to run uncontrollably in his mind.

While absentmindedly nibbling on the steaming bun in his hand, he stared intently at the computer screen, sliding the mouse wheel continuously, carefully browsing the key information on the web page that might be helpful to him.

During this process, Wu Ming discovered an interesting piece of information.

Recently, shocking news spread rapidly overseas. Reports indicate that in parts of South Korea, previously peaceful residential buildings have exploded without warning. This sudden incident has sparked widespread concern and speculation.

Experts in related fields have expressed their opinions on this bizarre incident. After preliminary investigation and analysis, they believe the sudden collapse of these residential buildings is most likely due to disrepair. The lack of effective maintenance and repairs over time has weakened the structures, ultimately causing them to collapse under their own weight.

Meanwhile, another eye-catching piece of news arrived from Je Island. Local fishermen claimed to have discovered mysterious debris in the waters near Je Island. The origin and nature of these fragments were the subject of much debate. Some speculated they might be the remains of a jellyfish torn apart by an unknown force; however, other witnesses insisted the fragments resembled strangely shaped mushrooms.

Despite this, this enigmatic piece of information did not generate the kind of widespread excitement people had hoped for, perhaps because the actual damage caused was relatively small, or perhaps because the public was already accustomed to such bizarre phenomena.

In short, this incident did not become a hot topic of discussion on the streets, but was simply mentioned occasionally by Korean people during casual conversations after dinner.
