Am I A God?

“Flee!” A short youth wearing shorts screamed, “Zou x GuangYuzhui’s coming!”

A watermelon cleaver shot out and impaled the head of the youth, who vanished after flashing rays of light.

“What?”

“Zhao’s gang coming!”

“Run! They’re here to kill newbies!”

Tom lifted his head that showed his name, Earth’s Tom, above. He was shirtless and holding a staff as he joined others in a training quest to kill small monsters.

Hearing the panicked screams of the surrounding players, he asked curiously, “What’s going on? Who is Zou x GuangYuzhui?”

His friend said, “You don’t know him? He’s a scumbag! Rumors said he likes to sexually harass female players and his alias is super perverted. Nobody knows how many female players he had harassed!”

Another friend said, “The second thing he likes to do is kill newbies, massacring the training area outside the Beginner’s Village!”

Tom was puzzled as he said, “If he’s perverted, wouldn’t his attributes be lowered and lose his combat power? How could he kill others?”

“He has a group of perverted members who kill newbies for fun.” Looking at the fleeing crowd, Tom’s friend said, “They’re coming! Let’s run!”

Tom’s eyes lit up and said, “You run first. I’ll stay behind to provide cover for you!”

His friend looked strangely at him and said bewildered, “Just flee directly…”

Tom patted his chest and said, “No problem. Run quickly. Even if I die, I’ll help delay them!”

His friends looked at each other, swiveled and fled without a word.

“Is he nuts?”

“We’ll not team up with him in the future. He seems like a mental case.”

Tom did not know the contents of his friends’ private chats. He looked happily at their receding figures and thought, “I suppose they will be grateful to me and provide some Awareness Dimension’s energy?”

He turned his head to look at the approaching crowd and thought, “If I can convince the Zhao Gang to subdue to me, won’t I earn more Awareness Dimension’s energy?”

A group of people surrounded him and the leader was a bald burly man, Matcha.

Matcha walked up to Tom and said arrogantly, “Good fellow, you are brave. You didn’t flee when you saw us?”

Tom said righteously, “Your behaviour of the strong killing the weak is not to be condoned. Let me tell you…”

“Enough of your nonsense.” Matcha waved and said, “Beat him to death!”

The big group of supercats rushed forward and threw kicks and punches at Tom.

Tom shouted in fear, “Wait a minute!”

“I’ll be d*mned if I wait!” Lightning punched Tom’s head.

Tom fell to the ground with a loud bang and he retorted angrily, “Talk nicely. If you use violence, I’m going to be angry!”

Matcha laughed. “Angry?” He stepped on Tom’s face and said, “Show me your angry face.”

Tom was furious and wanted to retaliate but was beaten down to the ground. As a newbie, his level and number count was inferior. He was no match for Matcha and the supercats.

Tom screamed furiously, “Stop it! Don’t force me! Otherwise I’ll destroy the Earth!”

“Hahaha, you’re destroying the Earth!” Lightning said, “Brothers, let’s beat him up!”

“I’m an alien! You can’t beat me! You are causing a galactic conflict! You’ll become the Earth’s criminals.”

“Carry on beating!”

“Unreasonable!” Tom said in a fury. “You’re all dead! Remember this! Earth will be destroyed because of you!”

As Tom vanished after flashing rays of light, Lightning clapped his hands and said, “This silly dude uses aliens to fool us when his alias is Earth’s Tom.”

Matcha waved his hand and said, “Let’s go to another place.” They went in the direction of the training area like a swarm of locusts.

…

Tom exited the game once he arrived at the Beginner’s Village. He took off his game visor and ran to Giggle and meowed in anger.

“Giggle! I was slaughtered!”

Giggle did not flinch as he continued browsing the internet and said, “Oh.”

“Contact the company immediately and locate their whereabouts! I want to teach them a good lesson in the material realm!”

Giggle diverted his gaze at Tom and said, “No, don’t do anything that would affect the Closers World adversely,” He said. “It’s no big deal being killed in the game. Train hard and avenge yourself.”

Tom glared at him and said indignantly, “You didn’t say that when you were killed in the game! This gang of players are killing newbies daily and it’s not good for the game! The killed newbies may not want to play the game anymore!”

Giggle narrowed his eyes and said, “That’s a problem. We can’t allow rogue players to kill newbies indiscriminately. As the Closers World become more powerful, I’m unable to change the rules at will.”

“What’re we going to do?” Tom said anxiously. “Those rogue players are doing their evil deeds! Do we stand by and do nothing?”

The American Shorthair Giggle curled his beard and said, “Perhaps we can allow other humans to deal with them as their deeds had caused much condemnation.”

…

A few days later, Zhao Yao sat in front of the main entrance of the Beginner’s Village so that he was conspicuous to the players passing by.

He smiled happily at the BOOK’s progress bar that increased sporadically.

His supercats had been killing newbies outside the Beginner’s Village in order to make him notorious. He sat at the entrance, gazing at his perverted alias so as to attract attention. His deeds caused many players to condemn him.

According to Arthas’ theory, more and more players were sending their dissipated mental energy to Zhao Yao unknowingly.

Zhao Yao knew that his BOOK was accumulating their mental energy which was used for Diana’s evolution.

In a few short days, Diana’s progress bar had reached more than 50%. It would not take a few days for her to evolve.

Recently, other high level players counterattacked Matcha and the supercats. Besides Rice Cake and Gaia, the supercats’ level and pets were inferior and were often slaughtered.

“We have done enough damage in the Beginner’s Village. It’s time for us to move to another location,” Zhao Yao thought. “I’m a rich game player.”
