Chapter 285 Explosion! Too outrageous!

This time, Princess Vera’s master-disciple bond quest took quite a while.

But it was finally completed.

Si Yan didn’t hesitate and chose to generate it.

With Si Yan’s choice, a master-disciple contract was generated.

The next step was simply to have Princess Vera sign the contract.

This was an active contract.

Now that the bond had been achieved, there wasn’t much of a problem.

“These are some materials I’ve prepared for Your Highness. I probably won’t be able to come over again this month. Your Highness can combine what I’ve taught these past few days with these materials, and I believe you will gain a lot,” Si Yan said.

Princess Vera took the materials: “Thank you, Master!”

Immediately, she grew a little worried.

“Master’s opponents are getting stronger and stronger recently, but I’ve tried to make several talismans these past few days without success. Master, why don’t we sign a contract? Every time, Master only needs to pay a small price in blood essence to summon me,” Princess Vera said.

An ordinary contract couldn’t be without a price, and this price didn’t necessarily have to be paid to Princess Vera.

Even if the contract’s object didn’t demand a price, the contract itself had a cost.

For example, when Si Yan summoned Catherine, there was also a price, but this price was negligible for Si Yan now.

After all, Catherine was a contract that Princess Vera had arranged for her to sign actively with Si Yan.

As a Vampire Prince, if it were an ordinary contract, Si Yan would have to pay some blood essence each time, which would be a temporary weakening.

Indeed.

After the bond reached 500, Princess Vera, considering that Si Yan no longer had a talisman and the Gui Creatures he encountered recently were all Prince-level, was somewhat worried about Si Yan’s situation.

So she proactively suggested it.

This was also why Si Yan chose to use up the talisman Princess Vera had given him in the Evil Ghost Inn instance.

Without the talisman, once the bond reached 500 and a contract was generated, it was more convenient for Si Yan to bring it out.

Now, Princess Vera bringing it up herself was an unexpected gain.

“Your Highness, I also have a contract here.”

Si Yan pondered for a moment, then took out the master-disciple contract and handed it to Princess Vera.

Princess Vera took it curiously.

“This is a master-disciple contract.”

Si Yan was about to explain.

After Princess Vera scanned the contract, she said: “Master, this contract is much better than mine. Let’s use this one.”

After speaking, she put her finger in her mouth.

She bit her finger with her hidden Vampire fangs, dripping blood onto the contract.

Just like that.

Princess Vera, the Vampire Prince, successfully signed the contract with Si Yan!

“Ding! You have successfully signed a contract with Princess Vera!”

“The host’s bond with Princess Vera has reached 500, granting one contract feedback!”

The notification appeared on the system panel.

The contract was finally signed.

Moreover, because the bond was already 500 upon signing, Si Yan directly received a feedback.

Princess Vera, as expected of a Vampire Prince, the contract feedback this time was exceptionally fierce.

In a short time, Si Yan’s Physique, Blood Essence, and Agility rapidly increased.

His Strength also saw a small increase.

Vampire feedback would result in good Physique and Blood Essence.

But Agility was actually the highest.

The feedback was too intense.

After the feedback ended, Si Yan checked his Agility, and in a single boost, it had actually increased by over 100 points!

Reaching over 130 points!

Not only that.

Si Yan’s Physique and Blood Essence also saw significant increases, both rising by nearly a hundred points.

Such feedback power could be considered somewhat terrifying.

It was also normal.

Princess Vera was a Vampire Prince, after all!

As she continued to grow in the future, there would be a continuous stream of feedback!

Si Yan opened his attribute panel and carefully checked it.

“Ding! Loading…”

“Player Attributes: Si Yan

Physique: 325

Blood Essence: 268

Strength: 252

Agility: 252

Resistance: Curse Resistance: 50%, Fear Resistance 18%”

Si Yan glanced at his panel.

After this wave of feedback from Princess Vera, Si Yan’s personal attributes had greatly increased.

His Physique had already broken through 300.

Physique itself was Si Yan’s most prominent attribute; Ying Rui’s previous feedback primarily focused on Physique.

Liu Yiyi was also continuously providing Physique feedback to Si Yan.

All other attributes had also broken through 250, with several items already close to 300.

In terms of resistance, Si Yan’s Curse Resistance reached 50%, which was the effect after equipping the nether ghost heart and using the soul tree heart.

After equipping the nether ghost heart, the effect of the soul tree heart was many times greater than before!

It could be said that this contract with Princess Vera brought immense benefits.

Although it took a long time and consumed a lot of points, the gains were enough to outweigh all the costs.

“Master’s contract is indeed better than mine; it seems to allow communication, which is much better.”

Princess Vera’s voice sounded beside him.

After sensing the contract, she made a discovery.

As a Vampire Prince, Princess Vera’s understanding of contracts far surpassed that of Xia Yuruo, Du Siyu, and the others.

Si Yan nodded: “Yes, if Your Highness has any questions in the future, you can tell me through the contract.”

“Okay, Master,” Princess Vera said.

Si Yan looked at the time and said: “Your Highness, I must leave.”

After bidding farewell to Princess Vera, Si Yan returned to the real world.

Although this time cost 240 points, the gains were huge.

Si Yan checked the time; there were only a few hours left until the Shouyang Mountain instance began.

“You’re the one!”

After contracting Princess Vera, Si Yan decided to enter this instance.

Si Yan pondered for a moment, made some preparations, and then rested.

It was always necessary to conserve energy before entering an instance.

Soon, Si Yan fell into a deep sleep.

It was just getting dark in the real world.

Si Yan was asleep, but someone else couldn’t sleep.

After Si Yan emerged from the Vampire World, a voice rang out from a massive estate.

“Hall Master, this is bad! Your position has been taken by Si Yan!”

A panicked voice sounded.

“What?”

Inside the villa within the estate, a middle-aged man stood up, still not understanding what had happened.

“Si Yan, Si Yan has climbed to the overall rankings and taken your position, Hall Master!”

The voice grew even more frantic.

“What? Si Yan has climbed to the overall rankings?”

The middle-aged man’s expression changed, and he quickly opened the Player Ranking.

He saw that Si Yan’s name was prominently displayed on the overall ranking of the Player Ranking!

Si Yan’s name was currently in the last position on the overall ranking!

That is, 100th on the overall ranking!

This position originally belonged to him.

“How is this possible?”

Although this middle-aged man was a top-ranked player, at this moment, his eyes also widened suddenly, unable to believe it!

Si Yan had actually climbed to the overall ranking so quickly!

He stared at the Player Ranking again and again.

He seemed to want to see if he was mistaken.

But no matter how he looked, the 100th position on the overall ranking was Si Yan!

After clicking on Si Yan’s information panel, it was confirmed to be Si Yan without a doubt.

Si Yan only used a dozen games to reach the overall ranking of the Player Ranking!

Although it was the 100th place, this was unprecedented!

Before it happened, people wouldn’t even dare to imagine such a thing!

After all, with Horror Space progressing as it has, which of the players on the overall ranking hasn’t played over a hundred games?

Many of these top-ranked players entered Horror Space from its very inception.

They themselves were among the most outstanding and powerful players in their batch.

After all, no matter how talented someone was, if others had a two or three-year head start, catching up wasn’t that easy.

But now.

Si Yan, a rising star, despite others having a head start.

Actually, he surged to the overall ranking in one fell swoop!

No, to be precise, this middle-aged man was an older batch of players, and it had been almost four years so far.

This year was his fourth year as a formal player.

He also only climbed to the overall ranking at the beginning of this year.

After reaching the overall ranking, the boost to his reputation was immense.

The player organization he founded expanded from a medium-sized organization to a large one in one go.

It even had hundreds of experienced players.

He had always worried that the players he had pushed down would surge back up.

Or that some players would suddenly rise to challenge him.

As for Si Yan, he had noticed him before but hadn’t paid much attention.

In his opinion, no matter how talented Si Yan was, he wouldn’t even think about the overall ranking without two or three years.

In two or three years, he would have already progressed further.

Who would have thought that in only the fifth month, Si Yan, having played only a dozen games, had already climbed to the overall ranking!

The middle-aged man’s face also became extremely unsightly.

If he hadn’t been in 100th place, but rather 99th, seeing Si Yan’s talent would at most have surprised him.

But now, Si Yan had pushed him down.

This made him a bit uncomfortable.

He suddenly dropped from the overall ranking!

It would be somewhat difficult to climb back up after falling!

But the facts were right before his eyes.

Even if he was unwilling to accept it, he could only accept it.

The middle-aged man stayed there for quite some time.

Then, with a grim expression, he opened his player panel and looked at the several instances he had saved with instance tickets.

For one of these instances, an invitation should arrive in a few days.

These instances were all very dangerous for him.

However, he was already prepared to go in.

He was going to reclaim the 100th spot!

In the villa, Si Yan was still sleeping soundly.

He hadn’t paid attention to his overall ranking.

But soon, apart from the middle-aged man who was originally 100th, other players also noticed!

“Holy moly!”

In a villa in a small county town, a man jumped up.

Because his physical fitness was too good, this jump directly sent him several meters high, smashing the villa’s ceiling.

His head also buzzed from the impact.

If it weren’t for his hard skull, this blow would have killed him.

“Si Yan is already on the overall ranking?”

The man clutched his head, his face full of disbelief.

At this moment, both his actions and expression were filled with shock.

He stared at the Player Ranking again and again, still finding it unbelievable.

This player took a deep breath. He had paid a lot of attention to Si Yan.

Because the player organization he belonged to was interested in recruiting Si Yan, they asked him to keep an eye on information related to Si Yan.

This is insane!

It’s too fast, isn’t it?

It’s been less than five months!

Si Yan is already a top-ranked player?

This player was also utterly stunned.

He didn’t even notice the blood gushing from his head where he hit the ceiling.

It took several minutes for this player to come back to his senses, and he quickly opened the Player Forum to post the news of Si Yan’s ascent to the overall ranking.

Other players wouldn’t be so bored as to stare at the rankings every day.

Especially the overall ranking, which didn’t change much.

Although the top-ranked players were all very strong, people would only pay attention to topics related to themselves or those they were interested in.

It was like the rich list before Si Yan’s transmigration.

Normally, apart from the richest person or the top few,

How many of the names further down could you remember?

Of course, the Player Ranking had some differences, but the principle was still the same.

Before this player posted the message, no other players in his player organization had discovered it.

In a chat group with hundreds of players, the players were exchanging information about instances.

Or discussing instance guides.

Normally, ordinary players wouldn’t know this information.

Because this was an internal group for this player organization.

“Everyone, look quickly, Si Yan has climbed to the overall ranking!”

Then, this player’s message was sent out.

In that player group, someone else sent a few more messages.

Then, the chatting players saw this message.

Immediately, the player group fell silent for a moment.

“Is it true or false?”

Someone sent a message.

But the other players remained silent, either not seeing it or having gone to check the Player Ranking.

“Oh my god! This is real, Si Yan really climbed to the overall ranking, holy crap, he’s a top-ranked player already?”

“How is this possible? How did he do it? Five months, a dozen games?”

“Damn! He’s truly incredible!”

“Gah, that’s too fast!”

Soon, the player group became incredibly lively.

After checking the rankings, the other players were all shocked, expressing their disbelief in the player group!

They were indeed shocked!

Some other players, after seeing Si Yan climb to the overall ranking, were stunned for a long time before reacting.

Soon, this news spread like a tsunami, quickly propagating.

The speed of its spread was also astonishingly fast.

In a short time, the news of Si Yan reaching the overall ranking was known in numerous player groups.

On the Player Forum, there were also posts about Si Yan climbing to the overall ranking.

Posts related to Si Yan almost reached a “forum-wide takeover” in a short period.

The Player Forum was filled with such posts.

Although there were still many players in the game, there were also many players not in the game.

Si Yan’s ascent to the overall ranking soon caused a huge earthquake among all player communities.

“Holy crap!”

“666, Si-ge has gone completely god-tier!”

“Simply incredible!”

“Too amazing, I’m completely stunned. When I first saw it, I thought it was fake news.”

“Me too, my head is still buzzing right now.”

“This is truly invincible. This record probably won’t be broken even in three years.”

“Three years? No one will be able to break it in a hundred years!”

On the Player Forum, all the players were stunned.

Everyone was discussing it with immense enthusiasm. (End of chapter)
