Chapter 428 - Breaking Records-7, Score & Reward.
The black Cloud Genie stood right beside Athan with a dumbfounded expression as the monsters continued to die the instant they spawned.
" You possess some strange power, lad. Just like that girl. What's your name? "
Athan was currently sitting on the cloud of chaos with a carefree smile as he just controlled the giant web structure around him with his finger and mind to kill the monsters.
He also used a minimum amount of abyssal darkness such that it wouldn't run out in an hour with its recovery rate. He just needed to break the surface defense of the monsters to finish them off with his Arachanid's Demon Web, in which he used the nature of Force of Glittering River.
" You can call me Athan. " Athan replied as he moved his fingers.
The black cloud genie nodded with a grin, " Athan. Khakhaka...Not bad, lad. Anyway, There's only a minute left, so keep it up. "
" But who are you? When I arrived here, I saw someone similar to you, but he looked all white while you are all black. " Athan took this chance to ask while controlling his technique.
" Khakhaka...There are many of us here. We are called cloud genies, and our origins are in Upper Chaosverse. "
He then talked a bit about cloud genie to Athan as one minute passed and monsters didn't spawn anymore.
At this time, The black cloud genie clapped with his cloudy hands as a giant black leaderboard appeared in front of Athan.
There were names written on the leaderboard with golden letters.
All-time Highest scorer:- Linci Crow-184,000.
Rank 1:- Linci Crow-120,300 score.
Rank2:- Zerdawn-46,500 score.
Rank3:- Demon Gobi-45,000 score.
...
" Khakhaka, do you know what your score is, lad? " Black Cloud Genie asked with a mischievous smile.
Athan was a bit speechless and spoke while shaking his head, " How would I know? Hurry up and tell me. " Though inside, He felt that he should have quite a high score since he continuously killed the monsters.
Black Cloud Genie snapped his finger before spoke, " Actually, I also don't know, Khakhaka. Anyway, Considering your slaughter-fest, you just blew the record..."
At this moment, A new name appeared on the leaderboard.
" Congratulations, lad. You broke the record. Khakhaka...Two people broke the same record in such a short time period. But your record is insane. It looks like no one will be able to break it unless they also have similar strange power as you have."
[ Slaughter In Space Leaderboard ]
All-time highest scorer:- Athan Void-184,000
Rank 1:- Athan Void-184,000 score.
Rank 2:- Linci Crow-120,300 score.
Rank 3:- Zerdawn-46,500 score.
" This Linci girl just broke her own record half an hour ago and also broke the previous All-time highest score that was 98,000. But here you are, breaking the all-time highest score once again. What a day. Khakhaka..." Spoke the black Cloud Genie as he laughed loudly.
" Breaking all-time high record? So that means there will be some rewards, right? or is it just for show? " Athan asked with a grin.
Black Cloud Genie smiled while showing his white crystal teeth, " Naturally, There are rewards. Breaking an all-time high record in the Newbie event is a great thing. It's been thousands of years since the last one was broken, but today, two broke the record one after another, Khakhaka..."
He then waved his right hand before Athan in horizontal motion as small portions of clouds appeared.
There were a total of three portions that looked like pillows.
" There are three reward options. You can choose one of them as your reward. " After saying that, black Cloud Genie pointed his finger towards the first cloud.
" The first reward is a special Artifact, Nimbus Aurora. "
Athan saw a fist-sized golden ring with a colorful aura swirling in the middle of it and looked at it curiously, ' Strange...'
" This Nimbus Aurora is a special artifact which you can't get from anywhere else other than Chaos Monolith Hills. As for its use? It's very simple, straightforward, and powerful. This Nimbus Aurora is specially made for Cloud of Chaos. It will merge into your body after you put a drop of your blood on it, and whenever you use Cloud of Chaos, This nimbus aurora will merge with it to make it more powerful in all ways. "
Athan nodded before spoke, " Next? "
Black Genie put his hand over the second cushion cloud as an egg appeared on it.
" An egg of a powerful chaos beast lineage from Upper Chaosverse, Raikin Pegasus. They are fast, potent, and lethal. More powerful than average chaotic beings. Their bloodline can easily allow them to surpass the limits of lower Chaosverse, so if you managed to go to Upper Chaosverse, This guy would be a great companion for you there too. "
Athan nodded without much Interest. He still remembers three naughty guys: DeathKnight, Skylord, and Lucent, ' You three guys. Hahaha, I'm sure Mimi is taking good care of you. '
Shaking his head, He smiled and said to black Genie, " Next reward? "
Black Genie put his hand on the third cloud cushion as a rather small box appeared on it.
" The third reward is this box...which contains a protection jade talisman that can protect your life from any attack from Zen order grandmaster or below level person. "
After saying that, Black Genie smiled towards Athan before continuing, " Now choose. Which reward would you select? "
Athan fell into thought as he looked at the rewards and then at the black Genie.
' He spoke much about the second reward while the third reward doesn't need explanation. On the other hand, He didn't speak much about Nimbus Aurora. That woman told me that the original Cloud of Chaos is a king-rank order technique, but I don't know much about it and how " versatile and powerful " it is. Hmm... '
After thinking for a moment, Athan suddenly smiled at black Cloud Genie, " You seem like an intelligent type. I wonder which one of these three rewards is the best? "
" Khakhaka...Nice one, lad. But I'll still tell you. The rewards represent a personality, one's backing power, and confidence. If you choose the third option, It means you don't have much powerful backing. If you choose a second reward, It means that you want a companion that can help you.
As for the Nimbus Aurora, It's the best value reward and shows one's confidence in reaching the level to unlock the Cloud of Chaos technique fully. I'm sure you know that only ten people here have a full Cloud of Chaos. It's honestly the best technique here if you can acquire it fully. "
Black genie moved near Athan and whisper, " Khekhe...There is a good secret behind Chaos of Cloud, but you will only find about it after going to Upper Chaosverse. "
" So? What would you choose? Both the egg and Nimbus Aurora will help you in the long term. On the other hand, The protective jade is only useful while you are here. If you are confident of reaching Upper Chaosverse, then choosing this protective jade will be like making a grand loss. "
After hearing all that, Athan looked at the egg and the Nimbus Aurora before pointing his finger at one of the rewards, " I choose this. "
