After the Full-Level Boss Entered the Infinite Game By Mistake

Eh! It’s been a long time guys!! Had taken a short break from ATFBETIBM but now I’m back! Updates will be on Fridays!! 

Song Yuantian began coughing again, coughing so hard that it seemed as if he was trying to cough out his liver from his mouth.

Xia Chi, who was prepared to speak with passion, suddenly lost his voice, sitting there awkwardly and even feeling a little guilty: “Um, I was just complaining, don’t take it to heart.”

‘Don’t die in our guild. I just said a word and you started coughing. Aren’t you just trying to lay blame on me?’

Song Yuantian was still coughing, and Lin Jue looked at him, then at the pitch-black Samael, and reluctantly acted as a mediator: “Don’t be afraid, our guild president’s health isn’t very good this year, it’s not because you scolded him.”

He was really on his last breath; he didn’t like speaking but of the three people who had come, the guild president was coughing, and the other pitch-black person could hold his breath even longer than himself.

He had always said that he disliked attending events with mute people.

When Lin Jue finished speaking, Song Yuantian had just finished coughing, and his pale cheeks had a faint hint of blood color due to the effort.

Bai Lixin asked with some confusion, “According to what the system said, the game lobby cure all diseases. Can’t the system cure your illness?”

Song Yuantian looked at Bai Lixin with a faint gaze: “It’s useless, the system can’t cure my illness.”

Lin Jue opened his mouth to speak, but stopped himself and closed his lips tightly.

Everyone has secrets they don’t want others to know, and Bai Lixin didn’t delve any further. “My Mermaid Heart was reactivated, is that why you came?”

Song Yuantian’s thin and emaciated body always gave a feeling of fragmentation. He raised his hand to tuck away the stray hair on his forehead, and his sleeve pulled back to reveal his bony wrist.

The tendons and bones on his wrist were clearly visible through his skin, as if a third-level wind could knock down this white-haired young man to the ground.

“Yes, you have reached level 300 and reactivated the Mermaid Heart,” Song Yuantian took out a square black iron box from his backpack. The iron box was neither too big nor too small, with a side length of about 50 centimeters. As soon as it was placed on the table, it made a heavy muffled sound. “This is what I have kept for you.”

“This black box requires a key to open. I don’t have the key, nor have I opened it any other way.”

The black box sat quietly on the table, emitting a powerful sense of oppression just from its dark metallic material. It was just an inanimate object, but the air in the room became tense the moment it appeared.

Bai Lixin reached out to touch the black box, but Song Yuantian grabbed his wrist. “Don’t touch it.”

However, it was too late. Dust-like particles suddenly appeared on the black box, and they defied gravity to quickly swarm around Bai Lixin’s fingertips.

The cold and dark sensation instantly spread throughout his body, causing a slight tingling and numbness where it wrapped around. Bai Lixin shuddered and continued to probe forward with his fingers.

Suddenly, a huge force pulled at his wrist, and his fingers were pulled out of the entanglement of these black granular objects. Song Yuantian quickly took out a prop card, threw it towards the black box, and a translucent blue screen barrier enclosed the black box inside.

The black granules were blocked, and they wriggled and coiled crazily against the screen barrier for a few seconds before retracting back into the black box.

In a few seconds, the black box was restored to its original state, still a metallic outer shell that was so dark that it was impossible to discern its material. At first glance, it looked no different from any other metal box.

Song Yuantian explained in a weak voice, “This thing is very dangerous, don’t touch it randomly.”

Bai Lixin looked down at his fingertips. On the fingertips that were entangled with the black granules just now, there was a small wound that was almost invisible. The tingling sensation from earlier had caused a puncture on his fingertips and the black granules had sucked his blood through the wound.

Seeing Bai Lixin lost in thought, Song Yuantian sneered, “It’s a strange thing, isn’t it? I don’t know if that person is your friend or enemy, or if you even know them.”

“But no matter how you look at it, this thing is not good.”

“What I am going to tell you is the truth without any lies mixed in, because I genuinely need your help. I need you to help me resurrect someone.”

“You must also be curious about the person who gave me the black box. I have all the information you need.”

Bai Lixin scrutinized Song Yuantian, and his eyes, which were usually shallow, were now filled with an unprecedented sincerity. “I understand. So tell me, who do you want me to save?”

“I want you to save my lover, who is trapped in a game copy.” Song Yuantian took a deep breath and his expression immediately turned despondent. “According to the time in the game lobby, it’s been thirty years since then.”

“I was a useless weakling at the time, with low luck and poor ability, commonly known as a ‘battlefield garbage’. But luckily, I met my lover.”

“She was a very powerful player who saved me from the mouth of a monster, and since then, she has often taken me through the levels.”

“Thirty years ago, we climbed to over 200 levels and entered an apocalyptic dungeon.”

“That was a dungeon shrouded in death and fear. At first, we were performing tasks as usual, but one of our teammates triggered a zombie frenzy due to a mistake in the operation, awakening the terrifying zombie king.”

Song Yuantian frowned, “At that time, there were already many players who considered themselves experts, but compared to the zombie king, we realized what it meant to be powerless.”

“All we could do was run and continue the task with our tails between our legs. On the last day, when the task was about to be completed, the zombie king found our hiding place and launched a fierce attack against us.”

“In order to protect me, she was scratched by the zombie king.”

“The toxin of the Zombie King is a very special toxin, even if an item card is used, it has no effect. I watched her lose her heartbeat and in order for her corpse not to rot, and also to prevent it from becoming food in the mouth of the zombies, I froze her in a glacier where zombies can’t get close.”

“It is precisely because of this decision that I have the opportunity to revive her.”

“I was a lucky survivor in that copy, and I wandered aimlessly for a long time afterwards. Suddenly, this black box appeared in my backpack, along with that memorized phrase.”

Bai Lixin asked, “It’s been thirty years. What about that copy? Have any players entered it? Has your lover’s body been found by anyone?”

Song Yuantian replied, “I understand what you mean. Even if we can enter, we may not be able to find her.”

“Buy if there’s a glimmer of hope, I must try,” Song Yuantian’s five fingers clenched tightly, and the pale blood vessels immediately bulged from his loose skin. “Just come with me. Even if I don’t find her, or she can’t be resurrected, I will give you the black box.”

Bai Lixin sighed silently, “Go on, tell me about this copy, how do we get in?”

Song Yuantian relaxed his fingers slightly and said, “Alright, I’ll keep going. The copy is still open and has not been sealed off. But few players have entered in the past thirty years. It has only been opened five times, and has not been launched again in the past decade.”

“The activation of the zombie king was defined as a system bug, and its appearance has gradually decreased due to this reason.”

“I have seen the game content of these five times, and I found that after each time, the zombie king’s abilities became stronger and stronger. As a learning monster, it should have further improved its abilities in practical combat.”

“When we awakened it, it was probably just a newborn baby.”

“Now that ten years have passed without the copy being opened, even I don’t know how powerful it has become.”

Bai Lixin asked, “So that’s why you asked me to come and find you after reaching level 300.”

Song Yuantian replied, “Yes. If your abilities are not sufficient, entering the copy will be in vain. Only by improving your own level can you survive until I find her.”

“I have a designated card for the copy. If you’re ready, I’ll take you into the copy. But I want to remind you that this copy is extremely dangerous. Your teammate can become your enemy in the next moment. I know you just had a narrow escape, but this copy may be even more dangerous.”

Zhou Guang and the others frowned at the same time. Xia Chi who was sitting next to Bai Lixin stretched out his hand and tugged at Bai Lixin’s sleeve.

Bai Lixin smiled and looked at them reassuringly. “Which of my copies wasn’t extremely dangerous? The more dangerous the place, the more opportunities there are. Alright, I agree. I can leave at any time.”

Song Yuantian’s eyebrows, which had been tense, relaxed because of Bai Lixin’s promise. “Give me five days. I need to prepare, and I’ll come find you in five days.”

Bai Lixin replied, “Of course.”

Zhou Guang asked, “Wait a minute, how many people can your designated card teleport at most?”

Zhou Guang, who had been silent all along, suddenly spoke up and immediately attracted everyone’s attention. Song Yuantian paused for a second and replied, “10 people.”

Zhou Guang stared sharply at Song Yuantian, “You said you were going back to prepare, but you won’t be going into this dungeon alone, will you? How many members does your guild plan to send?”

Song Yuantian hesitated for a moment, then suddenly chuckled softly, “Originally, we planned to send nine people, plus Bai Lixin.”

“Coordinate with us,” Zhou Guang crossed his hands under his nose, hiding his slightly pursed lips. “Make some room for us.”

Bai Lixin: “Zhou Guang.”

Zhou Guang’s gaze grew sharper, “As President Song just said, one second your teammate could be your ally, the next they could be your enemy. In the last dungeon, you proudly sent Samael, confident that he could protect God Xin. But in the end, he was either looking for God Xin or on his way to find him.”

“In short, we don’t trust you. We won’t entrust our president to you either. Our president can protect himself.”

Zhou Guang shifted his gaze to Bai Lixin, and his demeanor softened, “God Xin, you said it yourself, fortune favors the brave. We’ll take care of ourselves.”

“President?” Song Yuantian looked carefully at Bai Lixin and his companions, then smiled brightly, his thin shoulders shaking with delight. “Bai Lixin, you have a group of loyal comrades that are truly enviable. I’m jealous.”

“Including Bai Lixin, I can only offer you five spots. Is that okay?”

“Although we believe more is better, you’re the host and we’re the guests, that’s enough,” Zhou Guang said.

Song Yuantian beckoned towards the black box on the table, and it disappeared into his backpack in an instant.

He stood up, supported himself on the table, and extended his hand towards Bai Lixin, “It’s settled then. We’ll meet at 8 am on the first floor game lobby in five days.”

Bai Lixin stood up and shook the bony hand that was almost bird-like, “Happy cooperation.”

As he watched Song Yuantian and his team disappear from view, Bai Lixin suddenly heard a system prompt.

[Ding! You have a guild invitation. Would you like to check it?]

[Yes/No]

Bai Lixin looked at Zhou Guang, who nodded slightly.

Looking at these four determined people, it would be a lie to say that he was not moved.

He has helped many people in the long river of time without expecting any rewards.

But when the roses he gave away turned into a garden full of flowers and were returned to him by someone else, he was pleasantly surprised by the sweet fragrance they brought.

Bai Lixin tapped the [Yes] icon with his consciousness.

Escape System: 【Dear player Bai Lixin, the Core Fire Guild has sent you a guild invitation. Do you accept or decline? ]

[Accept/Decline.]

Bai Lixin: 【Accept.】

Escape System: 【Ding! Congratulations to player Bai Lixin for becoming a member of the Core Fire Guild.】

【Ding! The Core Fire Guild invites you to become the guild president. Do you accept or decline? Accept/Decline.】

Bai Lixin: 【Accept.】

Escape System: 【Ding! Congratulations to Bai Lixin for becoming the Core Fire Guild president. Your privileges include:

1. The power to appoint and dismiss other members’ positions in the guild at will;

2. The right to handle all members’ joining and leaving the guild;

3. The right to use the guild warehouse;

4. The exclusive property bonus of the guild president.】

【Ding!】 Bai Lixin didn’t know what it was, but at the moment he heard this sentence, an unpleasant feeling flashed through his mind.

As expected…

【Ding! Congratulations, player, you have gained a +5% luck value bonus.】

Bai Lixin: 【…】

Sure enough, it’s the least useful luck value bonus.

【Ding! Your current luck value level is F-, and due to your low luck value baseline, the 5% lucky value bonus has no effect on your luck value, which remains at F-.】

【Congratulations, player, and have a pleasant game.】

Bai Lixin: 【…】

Congratulations for neither increasing nor decreasing? Shouldn’t I reply with a thank you for nothing?

【To be honest,】 Bai Lixin couldn’t bear it any longer, 【System, is there no specific number for my luck value? Every time it’s just F-; isn’t that too much?】

Escape System: 【Uh, let me check for you, please wait.】

【Ding, check successful. Friendly reminder, the lucky value of player Bai Lixin is -∞.】

Bai Lixin: 【???】

Damn.

You can throw a stone into a deep ditch, and it will make a sound. With his luck value, even if he smashed an asteroid down, there would probably be no sound at all.

Bai Lixin: 【May I ask if there is a tool in the game that can reverse the luck value?】

Escape System: 【Believe it or not, there is such a tool. However, it’s a rare item that can’t be easily obtained. If you really want to have better luck, you’d better borrow some luck from the player named Xia Chi next to you. I can tell that his luck value is extremely high.】

Bai Lixin slapped Xia Chi’s shoulder heavily.

Xia Chi was thinking about what supplies to prepare when Bai Lixin’s slap came down, and he was suddenly startled. He raised his head in confusion and looked at Bai Lixin, “What’s wrong, brother?”

Bai Lixin smiled very kindly, “Let’s go find the tokens together.”

Xia Chi: “…”

Help! Brother’s gaze looks a bit menacing, I’m scared!

Zhou Guang asked, “Shall we also go?”

Bai Lixin said, “You guys stay here and pack up. Also, you guys discuss and decide who wants to go. Shouldn’t we leave someone to manage the guild? Won’t the guild be in trouble without you guys?”

“Okay, you guys go first, and we’ll pack up. As for the guild’s matters, you don’t have to worry about it. We have a virtual guild administrator. We never missed going into copies when you weren’t here. But you reminded me, I’ll adjust the administrator’s settings later.”

Bai Lixin said, “Okay, let’s split up and act.”

After a minute, Bai Lixin and Xia Chi stood in front of the elevator door. Xia Chi was still guilty about his fan-fiction novels and asked like a little wife, “Brother, which floor shall we go to?”

Bai Lixin opened the event page, and the number of participants had reached 10,000 and was still increasing.

At this point, he suddenly understood that person’s intention.

He was counting the number of players.

Without this interaction, Bai Lixin would not have known that there were so many people hidden in this game lobby. Most players were busy with their own things, either clearing copies or on their way to them.

Participating in the event was straightforward, just sign up, with no punishment, and even the chance of hitting the jackpot. Players could play the game while leisurely.

With such a simple activity, almost all players would sign up.

In just half a day, the number of participants had reached 10,000. It seemed that the number of players in the game lobby was much larger than he had anticipated.

After closing the event page, Bai Lixin led Xia Chi into the elevator and pressed the button for the 50th floor. “Let’s look from the bottom up.”

Xia Chi asked, “Okay, but there should be a lot of people on the 50th floor, right? Almost all players can reach the 50th floor.”

Bai Lixin looked up at the monitor in the elevator and smiled lightly. “We need a lot of people to create a lively atmosphere, don’t we?”

It’s only when things are lively that you can do something naughty, like meeting someone.

Crowds are natural protection.
