Super God of War Chapter 265 - City of Light Beauties' Rankings

If something could not be understood, then, one temporarily should not think about it. It was an extremely useful guideline that Lin Jie abided ever since he was in his teens. The vultures' IQ was even lower than the Orcs, so the things that were written may not have logic. Wanting to understand the whole matter just from these words was impossible, even if Sherlock Holmes himself came into life, he also may not be able to decipher it.

As for the reason that vultures were dumb, it's very simple: Their brain capacity was much smaller than other living creatures.

Boohoo…

Boohoo…

The Crying Bay lived up to its name as sounds of “crying”, weeping and wailings could be heard. Spirits filled up the place, and the looming Spirit ships in the fog frightened the travelers.

Amongst the 100 Spirit ships, 99 of them were fake, purely just to prevent ships from entering Crying Bay. Rumors said that the inner part was the base camp of the Simon Pirates with countless valuable treasures and money. In Lin Jie's previous life, many players had tried to explore this island, but none had succeeded, and until now, none had found the method to enter.

Lin Jie's boat sailed around Crying Bay. If nothing unexpected happened, then he would be on the boat floating for the next two days. With bread and potions, Lin Jie was not afraid of dying from hunger.

Although The New Age was realistic, it was still a game. If it was in real life, then wanting a person to stay on the boat where one couldn't even stretch one's legs for two days and two nights would be simply torturing one to madness. However, in the game, everything seemed so calm—opening the built-in forum, and browsing websites were extremely comfortable actions.

Not looking at the distribution of The New Age, nor the information of the game and not even the battle of guilds, Lin Jie silently moved his conscious to the “Girl's Dorm” post and opened it.

The girl's dorm was the second-highest post in terms of popularity in the forum. Ironically, the post in the first was the “Overall Discussion”, which also included the Girl's Dorm, or else it may be uncertain who might be first.

On the Internet, what attracted people's attention the most would naturally be beauties. In the past decades, there had been countless of otaku idols on the Internet, each and every one of them was skilled in photoshop, and they basically were odd people, who belonged to being goddesses in pictures, but appalling and unsightly to one's eyes in the real world.

However, the real-life face scan in The New Age had completely cut off any possibility of picture photoshops, except some girls, who specially wore thick makeup when doing the scan to look better in the game, or else their looks would not be too different from in the real world.

“Sunshine City Beauty Hunter Su Wan Er's photos, expert, please help me level up.”

“Cute loli is here, any guilds recruiting newbies?”

“Inside has ‘wonderful pictures' attached, everyone is welcome to come and adopt me~”

Click inside, and it was full of posts with photos revealing one's looks in the real world! Hundreds of fresh new posts would appear with every second of refresh—that was the frightening power of the Girl's Dorm. As compared to the photos uploaded, the replies by the otakus were actually just a scanty few—busy looking, no time to reply.

What was more laughable was that in the photos exposed, as long as the beauty was good-looking, they more or less revealed their intentions of “begging experts for help” or “wanting to ride on the coattail of experts”. In one of the posts, there was even a player with the title Sunshine City Viscount, who had left a comment, “meet at the moat”. A girl instantly replied with a kiss emoji, and then… no one knew what they had done.

Suddenly, eight words popped up in Lin Jie's mind: “Men sell labor, while women sell their bodies.” Who would have thought that it would be so blatant within the game too?

With Lin Jie's equipment, level, and skills, if he really wanted to pick up women, they would just swarm to him! Just by throwing a few gold coins, he would be able to have a pleasant time at the moat.

All of these involved a setting: The things men and women do in the game would not affect reality at all. That was also a hidden selling point in The New Age.

Are your parents preventing you from dating too early? Come to The New Age! It will satisfy your adolescence fantasies.

Is your wife preventing you from having an affair? Come to The New Age! It will satisfy your middle-aged sweet dreams.

You… Not confident enough, not man enough? Come to The New Age! It will satisfy your national football dream.

It could be said that there were about 10% of players who bought the gaming equipment for The New Age just for such things.

Of course, as a person who was reborn and had already detached oneself from such interests, Lin Jie would not reply to such posts. Lin Jie's face was serious as he righteously clicked open An Xiaoran's post—”The New Age Beauties' Ranking”.

Beauties' Ranking naturally attracted the attention of countless players—it spent only three days to become the post, which was number one in the number of clicks. That post was also split into each major cities' rankings and the overall ranking.

“Chey, these are all nonsensical things.” Lin Jie pursed his lips, but he was quite curious at what level would the few girls in his team be ranked at.

[City of Light Beauty Leaderboard]:

First place: Inksnow! This person was the head MT of Triumphant Midnight. She was valiant and heroic in bearing with Plate armor on. Her looks itself had gotten 9 points, her Strength +2 points, a total of 11 points!

Second place: Shallow Smile! The representation of matured ladies, her job of Priest added points. She's able to heal any player, with such a powerful Priest like this, what more could a man ask for?

Third place…

Fourth place…

Lin Jie continued reading. Then, he actually found such a sentence at the end of the rankings.

The tenth place: Codename Dark Blue, Codename Qiu Ye 1, codename Qian Yi 1. There are three people tied in tenth place, all three of them are core members of Brotherhood's Savage Blade. Their figures are full marks! What a pity their faces are always covered by their helmets, and thus, they are temporarily tied in tenth place. I have already actively contacted Codename Lone Wolf to try and obtain the pictures of the three of them, I will definitely upload the pictures if I get them.

Lin Jie widened his eyes, the top three beauties of his team were only ranked at the tenth place? What joke was this?

However, mentioning An Xiaoran… It seemed she had really contacted Lin Jie, but at that time, he had just finished his Warrior's Job-Changing Mission, and there were many messages on his communication device. Naturally, the messages from people that were not added as his friends were skipped.

In the top ten beauties, the most popular one was “Inksnow” that was ranked first. Lin Jie's memory of her was especially vivid, not because of how beautiful she was but due to her tenacious character, which even Lin Jie also quite admired. She had trained hard for the War of the Gods for more than half a year, and she had even obtained the Primordial Shield Specialist remains' Heritage. It was a pity that she had met Lin Jie at her last battle, so she could only nurse a grievance about her death under the half unsealed Broken Blade.

Then, the three sisters of Brotherhood immediately followed.

Things that were hidden were forever far more tempting than simply just a naked body. How many people would beg to just catch a glimpse of their faces?

Lin Jie's heart could not help but be a little satisfied. ‘Chey, I can see them all I want, bite me if you can! Hahaha…'

As a person who was reborn, that was simply… not a promising mentality.

In a total of a few months, the number of times he had asked a girl out could be counted on one hand, let alone get enough girls to build a harem. All he did every day would be killing zombies, Undead, and Spirits. He was literally walking the road of being alone for life and relying on jerking himself off forever.

Actually, it was not all Lin Jie's fault, either.

Netherblue, the representative of mature ladies in Brotherhood, with a tall and sexy figure and long legs, which tickled one's fancy, who knew how many diaosi 1 had fantasized about them? However, she would bring along pepper spray all the time, and she herself was even not bad at martial arts. Thus, anyone that dared to try and flirt with her must reflect on one's ability first.

Qiu Yuan, the representative of barbaric girlfriends, with healthy wheat-colored skin and curvy figure, she seemed to be quite sexy. She could scold anyone with her arms on her waist or use her fists to beat up hooligans. Lin Jie had known Qiu Yuan for so long; besides the first time when they had met where she had been reserved as a girl, all the other times she had been like a man.

As for Bu Yi… Eating smelly tofu, to be honest, it really did spoil the atmosphere a little.

A tremble ran through Lin Jie's body, and then he hurriedly shook his head. ‘What am I thinking? I must be influenced by Ziliang. He's too dirty-minded.'

He looked at posts as he drifted on the ocean, and a day's time quickly passed. One must try to avoid going offline as much as possible when traveling on the sea, or else the boat would only sail into the distance by following the flow of the water currents. Lin Jie, with drowsy eyes wide open, slept for a while in the game.

Sleeping in the game also had the effects of resting, but it was not as good as sleeping in the real world.

If one felt tired when playing the game, the best way was to go offline and sleep.

“Hoo…” Lin Jie rubbed his eyes and instantly woke up. The fog surrounding him was much thicker, what was this situation? By right, when the player was online, the boat would not drift too far away!

The coordinates were still within Crying Bay's radius, so it seemed he had encountered dense fog.

Lin Jie raised his head and took a look around. The sky was full of stars, it was now nighttime in the game. Lin Jie only needed to wait until daytime arrived, and the fog would be dispersed. Then, he could return to the Crying Bay. Meanwhile, that timing would be exactly when Baili Xuanyuan and the Simon Pirates carried out their slave transactions. As long as he took a picture and recorded a video of it, Baili Xuanyuan would be blacklisted by the whole Guild of Light!

‘By then, let's see what else he can do!'

Lin Jie smiled, but he found out that in the distance, it seemed as if there was… an island?

Endless secrets were hidden in the ocean, so it was not rare for an island to appear. However, that island actually had a lighthouse, now that was rare.

‘Is it possible that it is the pirates' island?' Lin Jie's heart thumped. If that was really the case, then he was gonna be rich!

The bolder one was, the larger the fortune one was favored by. He must go and take a look!

Lin Jie headed towards that island on the boat. As the island got closer and closer, he could clearly feel the breeze that was much denser than the sea wind, and that was all due to the tropical plants on the island.

“Could this be the legendary pirate's island?” Lin Jie murmured, thrilled with joy.

He rapidly pulled over to the shore, and then he tied the boat properly. Lin Jie had finally stepped onto the island.

Ding~

—'You have found [Crying Island], You earned 2 Knowledge points.'

It was the island near Crying Bay, so it was named Crying Island. Now that island was named very casually, Lin Jie could not help but comment.

Lin Jie carried Silent Killer on his back, held Broken Blade and Thunderbolt Sword in his hands simultaneously, and slowly explored the island on the sea. It was rare to discover a new island, so, of course, he had to search it thoroughly. At worst, he should also at least discover a few treasure chests as a reward for his hard work, right?

If he found a mine which produced ores or a land with medicinal herbs… Hehe, then he'd be filthy rich! The first movers would definitely earn a huge fortune!

Wuwa—

Wuwa—

While Lin Jie was fantasizing, the wail of a baby could be heard. Lin Jie's pupils constricted, and he instantly rushed forward. Unexpectedly, he was completely stunned.

Babies, hundreds to thousands of infants!

Also, they were not humans, but…
