Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

[Whether or not you disclose the information to the equipment ranking list will not affect the rewards you receive.]

At this moment, a game notification suddenly sounded in James Williams’ ear.

“I choose to disclose the information!”

James Williams chose to disclose it after careful consideration.

Previously, when he cleared Misty Forest, he was ridiculed by many players. Now, it was time to announce some shocking news and let them know his strength. However, he could not release all the information about Crimson Myth. He still wanted to leave some trump cards for himself.

[Ding!]

[New York server announcement: New York Server’s Top 10 Equipment Ranking List has been activated! The game system will evaluate all of the players’ equipment in the server. It would select the server’s top 10 equipment and give them corresponding rewards!]

[For specific information, please go to the official website to check out the details!]

[Ding!]

[As the New York server is the first server on the Eternity Continent to activate the Top 10 Equipment Ranking List, all the players in the server will be rewarded with 100 gold coins!]

[Ding!]

[As the ranking list is opened, the New York server has officially opened the continental horn function. Players can spend 10,000 gold coins to release a continental horn as a means to quickly deliver news to other players. Feel free to use this function!]

[Ding!]

[Ding!]

..

A total of three announcements were released, and each announcement was refreshed three times.

When all the players saw the announcement, the chat window of the server exploded with cheers. Everyone had received 100 gold coins for free.

Being the first server to open the Top 10 Equipment Ranking List meant that on the Eternity Continent, out of the hundreds of servers in the world, their New York server was already at the top of all the servers!

As for the function, continental horn, one use would cost 10,000 gold coins. Except for the players who were loaded, the rest of them felt that the Eternity Company was too evil!

Not long after the announcement was made, a continental horn appeared.

The president of the Emperor Union, who came from one of the ten best earth-ranked unions in New York, Ida Murakami said, “What?! Am I seeing it right? What’s going on with this equipment ranking list?”

Soon, players flocked to the official website to check the ranking list. They all wanted to see which union’s boss was ranked first.

[New York Top 10 Equipment Ranking List]

[First Place: Crimson Myth (5-star Legend), Player Hades from Zero Union.]

[Reward: Damage increased by 10%.]

[Second Place: Death Scepter (Extraordinary), Player Region from Region Union.]

[Reward: Damage increased by 9%.]

[Third Place: Crystal Sacred Shield (Diamond), Player Ida Murakami from Emperor Union.]

[Reward: Damage increased by 8%.]

[Fourth place: Hidden (Diamond), hidden, hidden.]

[Reward: Damage increased by 7%.]

..

[Tenth Place: Bloodthirsty Crystal Bow (Diamond), Player Tina from Rose Union.]

[Reward: Damage increased by 1%.]

It was a total of ten pieces of equipment, but the players were so shocked that their minds were about to explode.

While most players were wearing a mix of silver and gold equipment, some unions with resources had barely managed to change into a mixture of white gold and platinum equipment. On the Top 10 Equipment Ranking List, there was actually legendary equipment! Moreover, it was a piece of 5-star legendary equipment. Many people had never heard of it before.

Yet now, someone had actually obtained one?!

Moreover, it was Hades?

All the players were cursing.

[Does Hades’ family have some relationship with Eternity? Why is he so powerful?]

[Why? Oh God, it’s so unfair. I only have a piece of gold equipment, but Hades already has legendary equipment!]

[I think there’s a bug in the game. Brothers, I’ve already reported it!]

[You have to report it. This must be a cheat. How could you obtain legendary equipment in just a few days? Could it be that legendary equipment was common now? Why haven’t I encountered one!]

..

[Oh my God! I just took a look at the leaderboard. Why do I feel like the equipment level in the New York server is already a century ahead of our server!]

In the official server, under the game forum, the players were frantically spamming their screens.

Not only were the common players speechless, but even those big shots who spent money were also speechless. How could it be that the players who loaded money into the game were slower than those who farmed monsters and equipment? Their equipment was more than a century behind those on the Top 10 Equipment Ranking List. Who could understand the pain of paying money for nothing?

After a series of complaints, the players began to study the information on the Top 10 Equipment Ranking List. They could still accept the equipment from the 10th to the 3rd place, while their attributes were slightly better than ordinary diamond equipment, they were far from being abnormal.

2nd place: Death Scepter (Extraordinary). As an extraordinary piece of equipment, its attributes were all hidden.

The players’ attention was also fixed on the first place equipment, Crimson Myth.

[Crimson Myth]

[Attribute 1: + 1,000 attack! 900 defense! 1,000 HP! 700 agility!]

[Attribute 2: Increases attack speed and attack range by 50% during battle!]

[Attribute 3: Ignores 30% of the target’s defense during battle!]

[Attribute 4: Hidden]

[Attribute 5: Hidden]

Wow…

The game forum exploded once again when it saw that the equipment had five attributes.

[Damn it! Does Hades have the goddess of luck by his side?]

[This piece of equipment actually increases so many attributes, how can other players play the game!]

[I strongly request Eternity to remove this legendary equipment! It’s too abnormal!]

[The attribute bonuses of Crimson Myth are twice as high as my attack!]

[How am I supposed to play this game? None of my equipment can even compare to one of the attributes…]

[Moreover, these are only the first three attributes. I can’t imagine how insane the other two hidden attributes are…]

[Why do I feel that all the pieces of equipment on the Top 10 Equipment Ranking List combined can’t even compare to Hades’ Crimson Myth?]

..

In an ancient jungle castle surrounded by dense fog.

A handsome man with long hair was sitting on a gray throne paper. He was playing with a brownish-purple scepter in his hand. He casually glanced at the Top 10 Equipment Ranking List and was surprised. “This time, it’s not number one?”

Then, he scanned the attributes of the equipment, Crimson Myth, which was ranked first..
