《Online Game: I Possess a Monster Merging Simulator!》Chapter 54: I, Tyrant, Will Occupy These Areas!
Advertisement
The next morning, Lorne adjusted his schedule. Only with a healthy body could he play the game in his best state and earn the most money.
After breakfast, Lorne returned to his room and put on his simple helmet.
Looking at the yellow ceiling, Lorne realized that he was still in the slums.
He had to find time to register for the permit to stay in the Energy Zone.
The quality of life in the slums was poor, and violent things happened from time to time.
In order to have a more stable life, it was necessary to move to the Energy Zone.
However, this matter would have to wait.
After all, the game had just started. Time was precious. He could not let other players pull apart the difference in levels.
Thinking that the others had already entered the main city for a period of time, Lorne did not stay any longer and quickly went online.
"Enter the game!"
...
Swish!
Lights flashed.
Lorne returned to the familiar Beginner Village.
It could be seen that because the dungeon had been cleared, the entrance to the main city had also been opened. Now, all the players who reached Level 10 had already left the Beginner Village.
After all, this was only the start. There was no meaning in staying here.
Moreover, level 10 players could change their class in the main city, which attracted the players even more.
Unfortunately, Lorne could not leave yet.
For Summoner players, they had to first raise their pets to Level 10 before leaving.
Such a mechanism was also designed to limit the impact of the Summoner's additional experience.
Lorne looked at his pet space.
There were still two pets that had not reached Level 10. They were Rimuru, Level 5, and Source of Poison, Level 7.

Of the two, one was a Bronze-Grade Boss and the other was a Silver-Grade monster.
To raise their levels, he needed a huge amount of experience.
Lorne did not find it difficult. After all, they were all mature pets that could automatically kill monsters themselves to level up.
They just needed Lorne nearby.
"Let's find a place with high level monsters to farm."
Lorne did not accept any missions. To be honest, the income from completing missions was definitely not as high as his efficiency in farming monsters.
As he thought, he walked towards the village entrance.
But before he could get far, Lorne suddenly stopped.
In front of him was the Beginner Village's chat channel. There was a series of comments on it.
"Attention all solo players! The Lizard Forest in the north of the Beginner Village has been reserved by our [Fire God Guild]. Please do not approach it lest a conflict arises."
"Everyone, look carefully. The Full Moon Valley in the north has been reserved by my [Domination Guild]. Those who trespass will be killed without mercy!"
"Everyone, please note that the abandoned camp in the north is the training ground of our [Sunset Guild]!"
"Attention everyone! The Monster Lake in the South is reserved by my [Fantasy Guild]. Please go elsewhere to level up!"
"Please note…"
For some reason, all the messages in the chat channel were warnings like this.
Because the first batch of elite players had left the Beginner Village, the other members of the guild became more and more fearless. They even used announcements to assign their guild's training grounds.
In this way, almost all the Level 10 areas were surrounded.
Seeing this, Lorne's expression turned ugly.
These guys were clearly not letting him level up.
"Good!"
"Very good!"

"You like to farm, right?"
"Then let's all occupy a farming ground and see who's more awesome!"
Lorne immediately bought three announcement tools and sent his message to everyone.
"@Everyone, from now on, all the areas in the north of the Beginner Village, including the Lizard Forest, the Full Moon Valley, the abandoned camp, the Bear Beast Ridge, and other Level 10 areas, are mine. If you don't agree, just stay where you are."
"@Everyone…"
"@Everyone…"
The announcement was repeated three times.
When they saw the contents clearly, with a loud bang, all the players in the Beginner Village exploded.
...
"Gosh! Boss Tyrant is attacking the large guilds!"
"We should deal with those bastards."
"That's right, they're too much."
"This is going to be interesting. I don't think the large guilds will give him face."
The ordinary players discussed.
The players from large guilds could not help but laugh.
"Who do you think you are? Do you really think you're something?"
"Does this guy think that he can compete with us just because he cleared a dungeon?"
"Hahaha…"
"Which guild doesn't have hundreds of people? Would we be afraid of a fool like you?"
"Come if you dare. Let's see if my machete is rusty!"
"..."
...
In the eyes of the players of large guilds, numbers were the most important.
In the early stages of the game, everyone's skills were limited. Without AOE skills, no matter how powerful a person was, he could not be a match for hundreds of people.
Therefore, when they saw the warning…
None of them felt nervous.
They even wanted to fight Lorne. As long as they killed him, they would be able to obtain his high-level equipment.
One had to know that he had just cleared the Nightmare Dungeon and obtained two Silver Treasure Chests. Coupled with other equipment, they could easily snatch one or two items and obtain a year's worth of earnings.
It was also because of this that many of them even provoked Lorne in the chat.
However…
This provocation did not last long.
About half an hour later, in the northern forest of the Beginner Village, a few terrifying monsters had already begun to kill the players crazily.
Lorne stepped over the corpses and crossed the area.
He did not stop here to farm because his target was not this region.
What Lorne wanted was the entire north region.
He passed through several key areas in the northern forest.
During this period of time, countless guild players who targeted him in the region died under the arrows of 'Small Artillery'.
After reaching Level 10, the basic attack of Fire of Death had reached 910 points.
Against it, these players dressed in White Iron equipment could not resist at all. They were basically killed with one arrow. Even if the tanks focused on raising their defense, they could not block the second arrow.
Coupled with the other pets, the situation was even more tragic.
Under normal circumstances, a team of more than a hundred people would not even be able to last three minutes under their attacks.
Therefore…
An interesting scene occurred in the chat.
"[Fire God Guild] has announced its withdrawal from the Lizard Forest."
"[Domination Guild] has announced its withdrawal from the Full Moon Valley."
"[Sunset Guild] has announced its withdrawal from the abandoned camp."

Entangled Fates Book 1 - Quantum Beginnings
“By far, the greatest danger of Artificial Intelligence is that people conclude too early that they understand it.” —Eliezer Yudkowsky Hey all, we're moving over to book 2. This content is in a state of transition. The book is now availble on Amazon (includes extra chapters): https://www.royalroad.com/amazon/B07W1534R8 Artificial intelligence was nearly mankind’s last invention. AI took off like a rocket, then when it racked up an impressive death toll, it crashed before it could blossom and took most high-tech industries with it. Resistance and fears became deep-set. Two decades after the infamous Rev. 4.6 incidents, humanity hasn’t quit dreaming of the wealth and power that could be at their fingertips. A new generation of mega-corporations rose from the ashes. When one melds a quantum computer to a barely functional mental patient as a PR move, there are those who seek to profit, those who want to destroy it, and Alex. Alex Sage is a typical college student trying to keep up his grades and maybe find a meaningful connection with the fairer sex. Then, an automated semi crashes into his home, killing his family and turning his head into a pin cushion in the process. Alex awakens to find most of his memories gone and an illegal AI hidden in his brain implant. Now the pet project of a tech billionaire and heavily in debt, Alex struggles to stay valuable enough to be kept online. Still grappling with the repercussions of his injuries, and threats from a dangerous anti-augmentation political movement, there are no easy answers and threats loom around every corner. Alex must use whatever resources he can to escape from under the thumb of a ruthless corporation, while keeping those he comes to love safe. Chapters will stay up on RRL until Aug 10. It'll go up on Kindle Unlimited after that. How do you get those extra chapters I didn't have planned for RR? If you want them, they'll be in the published book. Book 2 will still make sense without them - I made sure of that. But... isn't $3 a lot for extra chapters? Think of it as tipping me for a good job and you'd also be getting my eternal thanks. If you enjoyed it so much that the idea of missing out a few chapters haunts you, I did my job as an author and made an engaging story. What's in those extra chapters? Resolving a few issues, set up for the cybernetic revolution, a rather intense sex scene with a new partner, revelations of who's really pulling strings, and a bit of set up for book 2. Complaints that people missed out on it when it was published here won't help (sorry!). I posted this for the folks who helped me shape the book, which is you all! (Again, yay!) But... Why! Why not keep it all on RR forever? My editor likes being paid for one. For two, I'd like the ability to get broader readership. If I break even on editor costs, I'll be incredibly happy. What about book 2? Drafts for Book 2 will go up around Sept 10. My draft of Book 2 is done, and it will be handed to the editor once Book 1 is published. Feedback has been even more positive. Beta readers devoured it and wanted more. I'll add a link to Book 2 once it's up on RR. I'm more or less, using you all for Beta Readers, so you get it before it's "canon" and edited. I invite active and meaningful feedback during this process. In return, you get early access to chapters. That does mean that the book content or plot might be adjusted before it gets published as I refine it. Sex Y/N? Yes. I heard the feedback, 90% wanted it explicit. You all will get the "full" experience. Will I dump all of book 2 here? Honestly, I'm not sure yet. At a minimum, it'll be up to the 75% mark as we collect feedback, much like what I did with book 1. It really depends on how good the feedback is and how nice people are. Lots of support + meaningful feedback to make it better = higher likelihood you get all the book. Will be it up here indefinitely? No, it'll probably go up on KU at some point, but I'll make sure there's enough time for a large readership to grab it here. Then we move to book 3 which already is around 60K words already. What about other adventures in the same universe/characters? Yep. Absolutely. Nothing ready to share yet though. I plan to keep those side chapters and more slice of life stories as RR exclusive. Since I'm carving this off in book-sized segments, I'll have to figure out where those disconnected story arcs belong. I'm open to suggestions.
