The look on William’s face when he saw the treasure was that of when a woman saw cosmetics.
He dived headlong into the pile of gold coins. He started throwing bundles of coins into the space ring.
“I knew that Dragon slaying would turn out to be highly profitable from a long time ago. But I didn’t expect to strike it this rich.” Even William’s eyes had turned golden. It was very difficult to slay a dragon in his previous life. There, the players could only slay Dragons if they were at the highest level and had a formidable team with them.
Otherwise, it was impossible for an individual player, or an ordinary group of players to defeat the high-level Great Dragon.
Even if high-level guild members fought the Dragon, their possibility of defeating it was still slim. It was almost impossible. The chance of winning in a professional league was higher than slaying a Dragon.
It could be even said that.
It was 100 times easier for a group of players to defeat a legendary NPC like William, than slaying a Dragon…
The players’ attributes were not impressive. Besides having some powerful skills, the players did not anything special that would be able to defeat the Dragon.
William pillaged as fast as he could.
As long the location was susceptible to magic and battle energy, he could shove the items into the space ring. Within five minutes, the treasure vault was swept clean by William. He had not even left a single bronze coin.
Being thrifty was a virtue in the Chinese culture. Wasting resources was a sin.
William walked around to ensure nothing was left behind. He only departed when he made sure that he had not missed anything.
He could now return with ease.
When he reached the cave entrance, the Dragon’s clansmen had not returned yet. He did not waste any time, and swiftly led his followers towards the coastline.
William only became relieved when he could spot tens of large ships anchoring in the middle of the sea.
It was time, he could now check out the loot from the Dragon slaying.

William read his rewards carefully and took a deep breath. He covered his forehead with his hand. He had squatted by the seaside for half a day before he could recover completely.

(Description: Even though you have become a ‘Dragon Slayer’, the way you did it was by taking advantage of the hard work of other NPCs. Thousands of NPCs will now hate you to the core.)
William ignored the complaints of the game intelligence. He was an NPC. What was the meaning of NPCs hating him to the core?
Did he care?
No,
William placed the Dragon Slayer title happily above his head. The NPCs would not be able to see his title, but they could feel his dominance. They would think that this handsome half-elf is no ordinary character. If they recalled it properly, perhaps they might even recognize him as the legendary Dragon Slayer?
“NPCs can’t, but the players can see my title. When the game exits the open beta, players can use their insight ability on me. This shiny Dragon Slayer title will definitely blind their condescending eyes.
“There is no need to spell it out.
“Many players will definitely fawn on me…”
William let out a sinister laugh, and then checked out his legendary status.
[Dragon Slayer legendary status point+1]
Limitation: The legendary status is only effective in the southeast region]
[Description: In the third era, on 13 December 2333, Lord of Light, William Blackleaf, killed a legendary Fire Dragon at the snowy mountains of the East Sea.]
[Description: This Dragon slaying was witnessed by tens of thousands of intelligent creatures. The legendary feat would surely propagate to the southeast region.]
“I’ve… without a question, I’ve struck a fortune. Once my legendary feat is propagated, perhaps it may even result in a few powerful NPCs coming under my wing!” William stroked his chin as he perused his newly obtained endowment.
[Endowment: Fury of Thunder. When facing creatures that are 10 levels above you, you may sacrifice 50% of your health points to activate the Fury of Thunder.
Within three seconds, your next attack has a 20% chance of having an attack factor of x300% and dealing X300% of thunder damage.]
“It… is it that powerful?” William went into deep thoughts after examining this active endowment.
It was very obvious.
Fury of Thunder was an impressive endowment. It appeared as if it had been specially customized by the game intelligence for William, and was based on his attacks.
Simply put, he was given a second attack that had an instant kill ability.
But he had to sacrifice 50% of his health points for a low 20% chance. To William, it was not a very good deal!
“It’s not much of a use.” William sighed. He preferred an attack whose damage he knew about. It would be best if all the statistics were revealed before him.
For example,
He knew that hitting the head would have a doubled chance of causing critical damage!
For example, hitting the center skull would deal fatal damage. The amount would be unknown, but it was known for sure that the damage would be massive.
William was not fond of the endowment he got. He did not feel it worthy when he had to sacrifice half of his health points in exchange for a small chance of a successful attack.
“Of course, it may turn out useful when I’m unable to deal any damage to high-level monsters. I add it on top of Fury of Thunder. The resulting damage would be fatal.” William stroked his chin. This endowment could not be used in ordinary circumstances.
Only when he encountered a BOSS whom he could not deal any damage to, it was worthwhile to take such a risk.
“Oh! Now, I feel like killing that unicorn…” William was pondering if he could kill the little princess’ unicorn.
Suddenly, his eyes went to the sight of a large group of men walking out of the forest.
Without a doubt.
They belonged to the Dawn Army.
William saw that their numbers had not dwindled. Instead, their party had grown in numbers, as they had captured numerous naked prisoners.
“Board the ships. Bring them along, and when we reach the city, throw them to the mines. We’ll have a Dragon slaying banquet tonight!” As William finished speaking, the whole Dawn Army had started cheering. This was not just a simple victory, it was something greater. Their Lord had become a Dragon Slayer.
Without a doubt.
The banquet would be a grand affair!
An Instance Dungeon crystal appeared again in William’s hand. It was the one generated from the Dragon’s lair!
