Never, ever admit it.
The target was a [Cataclysm] Sequence Master from the Continent of All-Gods. It’s normal for powerful individuals to die in the wilderness, but if someone with ulterior motives investigates, this matter definitely won’t end quietly. Their identity isn’t simple.
Jiang Chen definitely didn’t want to get involved in such trouble.
Everyone in the Ancient Class Alliance knows I did it. What a coincidence that they just happened to get stomped to death by a Giant Tribe member.
Jiang Chen picked up the scroll from the ground—an Ancient Occupational Scroll—and casually handed it out. "A new Ancient Occupational Scroll. Who among you will inherit it?"
Currently, Caroline was a Linear Master, and Xueli was a Melting Warrior.
The new Ancient Class was called [Thorn Master].
Jiang Chen didn’t know its specifics, but it looked quite powerful.
Alice looked at Muriel; now, only the two of them were not inheritors of an Ancient Class.
Muriel said, "Don’t look at me. I still think being a Vampire is quite strong."
Alice rolled her eyes. "Strong, my ass. Besides sucking blood, what else can you do?"
"I can replenish your blood!"
"That’s utterly useless."
"Exactly! You’d better switch your class quickly!"
The others echoed in agreement. Muriel was a Vampire, considered a Support Class but oddly also a Melee Class. It utilized Skills to bite opponents, inject poison, and reduce their Resistance and Offensive Power. Its Offensive Power wasn’t very high. It seemed like an S-Class, but it was actually an awkward one—tasteless to use, yet a pity to discard.
The [Thorn Master] was obviously much better than a Vampire.
Alice said, "Switch your class. This should be a Long-ranged Class, stronger than your current one. I’m a Melee Class, so if I were to switch, I’d need an Ancient Melee Class. Then all five of us sisters would be Ancient Classes. We’ll stick together through thick and thin, ascend as Demigods, and search for God’s Seal!"
Muriel said, "It wouldn’t be bad for you to change classes either."
Alice shook her head. "I’m a Dark Angel, a Melee Class, and the Skills I’ve learned are for melee combat. Suddenly changing to a Long-ranged Class wouldn’t suit me. You’re a better fit."
"After all..."
"After all what?"
Alice laughed. "After all, you’re shorter and have shorter legs. Long-ranged classes suit you better."
Muriel’s eyes widened as everyone burst into laughter.
"Big sis is right. You’re shorter; this class is perfect for you."
"Don’t deny it; this class is tailor-made for you."
"Look at your legs—so thick and big."
Muriel was infuriated. Damn it, can’t you see a man is present? Saying such things about me is seriously undermining my image in Jiang Chen’s eyes!
To her surprise, Jiang Chen nodded in agreement. "They’re right, this class suits you quite well."
Muriel glared at Jiang Chen. "What do you mean, ’they’re right’?"
"This class is perfect for a short and chubby lolita."
HAHAHA... Laughter filled the air.
"Jiang Chen, I’m going to drain you dry!" Muriel snapped, lunging at Jiang Chen, her tiny fangs clearly visible. Damn him, calling my thighs thick and short?
Jiang Chen was startled. "Whoa, you’re serious!"
"Damn right I am!"
Muriel reached out to grab Jiang Chen, who quickly caught her hands. Looking at Muriel’s petite figure, he couldn’t help but laugh. That laugh was a mistake, as Muriel leaped up, stretching her neck, trying to bite Jiang Chen’s neck.
Seeing her hopping about, the others burst into laughter.
"You’re too short to bite his neck."
"If you’re short, admit it; if you’re stubborn, you’ll get hit."
Alice laughed. "Muriel, stop messing around."
"No way! You all can call me short, but Jiang Chen can’t!"
"Why not?"
"Because you’re a man! You’re looking down on me!"
"I’m not."
"You are! I saw the contempt in your eyes!"
Jiang Chen laughed. "Although you’re shorter, you’re... bigger than them. They’re just envious and jealous of you..."
Muriel looked down. My feet! Where are they? Why can’t I see my feet?
The other girls rolled their eyes. Men. They all prefer women with larger chests.
Only then did Muriel say with a smile, "You’re right. They’re all jealous of me. When we have time, I’ll let you... try them out."
Alice coughed. "Stop it, Muriel. He’s already spoken for."
"So what? Does he still believe in true love or something?"
Muriel took the Ancient Occupational Scroll from Alice’s hand.
Alice looked at Jiang Chen, feeling a bit worried. The people who came to kill us were clearly not simple; they probably have significant backing.
"Don’t worry about it. They died in Giant World; it has nothing to do with us. If anyone asks, just say we found the scroll."
The five of them exchanged glances. The assailants were all masters above the Fifth-stage, clearly from the Divine race with considerable status. Their identities must have been extraordinary.
Alice nodded. "From now on, let’s all stick to the same story: we found the Inheritance Volume in Giant World."
The group silently agreed.
Jiang Qiu asked, "Brother, what are you planning to do next?"
Jiang Chen replied, "We’ll level up in Giant World. The experience gain here is high, and leveling is fast. It’s perfect for us."
Alice nodded thoughtfully. "Let’s go to Titan World. We’ll wait for Muriel to change to an Ancient Class, then come back here to kill Giants."
"Okay."
The group of six returned to Giant World. Muriel went to inherit her Ancient Class. Meanwhile, Jiang Chen waited for Angelina, planning to take her to Giant World to level up. His current goal was to reach Level 200 and then undergo his Fourth-stage advancement.
The most urgent task was to raise their Levels as quickly as possible.
Jiang Chen had a Level 100 Legendary Set. Once he reached Level 200, he would need to find a way to acquire another Legendary Set. It was best to have a complete Legendary Set, as only a full set offered Attribute bonuses. Individual pieces of Legendary Equipment lacked these set bonuses.
To obtain a complete Legendary Set, they would have to get the Alliance of All-Gods to craft one. However, crafting a complete Legendary Set required an enormous amount of Merit Points.
「Assignment Temple.」
[Kill Giant Tribe City Lord Scryps Fast, Merit Reward Value: 100,000 points.]
[Kill Giant Tribe City Lord FitzGerald, Merit Reward Value: 100,000 points.]
[Kill Giant Tribe City Lord Solzberry, Merit Reward Value: 100,000 points.]
...
Jiang Chen looked at these Hell-level difficulty missions. They were all to kill City Lords of the Giant Tribe, and there were dozens of them.
The only consolation was that these missions could be completed as a team. Since teamwork was possible, it was ideal. With Angelina joining him and the five sisters (Alice, Jiang Qiu, Muriel, Caroline, and Xueli), they would form a perfect group of seven. Completing these objectives would not only raise their Levels but also massively increase their experience points.
With Jiang Chen as their leader, the group of seven returned to Giant World.
Muriel asked, "Little Na, why don’t you change to an Ancient Class too? That way, all six of us girls would be Ancient Classes, and we’d have great prospects for ascending to Godhood."
"Yeah, we’ve all changed classes. Now, only Alice doesn’t have a suitable Ancient Class yet!"
"That’s a good suggestion. If all six of us girls become Ancient Classes, once we reach Demigod rank, we can search for God’s Seal together and become true Gods."
Faced with their suggestions, Angelina shook her head. "I think I’m better off as a Priest."
Alice nodded. "Among the seven of us, Angelina being a Priest is good. That way, we can benefit from her Amplification Effect, enhancing our Skills’ Attack Power. It will also help us kill Giants more quickly."
The others nodded. A team with a Priest was completely different from one without.
