Awoke As A God After Auto Battling For 1000000 Years

To be honest, Lucy really outdid herself this time.

If it weren't for her Steal skill, Zhang Yue would never have been able to kill Hell's Messenger, Bigoas. And without that, entering the Gate of Hell and reaping so many treasure chests and profits would have been impossible.

This venture into the Gate of Hell not only dealt a heavy blow to the Infinite Guild, but also earned them loot worth a total of 2 million. That includes the nearly completed special equipment [Death's Eye] in Zhang Yue's hands, plus a Hell-tier treasure chest whose value is currently incalculable.

In other words, all of this was thanks to Lucy's contributions.

How could Zhang Yue not recruit such a top-tier thief into his guild?

Thinking about his upcoming monthly salary of 50,000, Lucy happily removed her hood. Beneath her short, neatly cropped hair was a somewhat youthful and unnaturally pale face.

She immediately greeted her colleagues, "Hi everyone! My name is Ouyang Ling'er, the newbie. Please take care of me."

Seeing Ouyang Ling'er's pale complexion, Wu Haotian couldn't help but blurt out, "Wow, to be honest, you're paler than the corpse of my unlucky buddy who's been dead for two months."

"You really look like a shut-in who never goes out."

When it came to welcoming a new guild member, Wu Haotian couldn't resist a little "friendly concern": "With a Steal skill like yours, you must have done well in the Professional Tournament, right?"

Ouyang Ling'er awkwardly raised a finger and stuck out her tongue. "Barely… barely made it to the top 100~"

"That's not right!" Wu Haotian frowned. "With a Steal skill that can disarm opponents and lasts 10 seconds, you should've easily defeated your rivals."

"She's poorly equipped," Lin Tian commented as he sized up Ouyang Ling'er. "She can't deal damage. Even if the opponent just stood there, she wouldn't be able to kill them."

"What kind of gear are you wearing?" Wu Haotian asked.

"Pure whites…"

Ouyang Ling'er's reply left everyone dumbfounded. "Seriously? Do you not know there's a refinement function for gear in the Otherworld? What have you been using your energy on if not refining equipment?"

"My Steal skill is S-rank now." Ouyang Ling'er said proudly.

It turns out she had poured all her energy into leveling up the Steal skill.

At this moment, Zhang Yue opened his storage space and laid out the dozens of golden gear pieces he had looted from the Infinite Guild's professionals in front of Ouyang Ling'er. "Pick whatever you can use and equip it."

Ouyang Ling'er was stunned. "I… I can just pick anything?"

"Anything."

True to his word, Ouyang Ling'er selected several pieces of assassin gear and equipped them on the spot.

Having never worn golden-tier equipment before, she couldn't even begin to describe how thrilled she felt.

"Thank you, Guild Leader. From now on, I'll do my best to bring prosperity to the guild."

And just like that, the Destiny Hall's membership grew from four to five.

Believe it or not, this five-person guild didn't even have a single standard professional.

The baseline? Elite-tier, all the way. [T/N: Quality over quantity]

Since Zhang Yue had killed many members of the Infinite Guild during their time in the Gate of Hell—targeting red-named and gray-named players as much as possible—his own ID had turned pitch-black.

In the Otherworld, Level 40 monsters have a chance to drop Level 5 materials. So, the team randomly chose a Level 40 wild zone nearby to farm materials for crafting [Death's Eye] while also working to reduce Zhang Yue's infamy.

———

Meanwhile, on the other side…

The Infinite Guild was licking its wounds after suffering devastating losses in the Gate of Hell.

Hundreds of players gathered around the resurrection fountain at the Dawn Sanctuary, creating quite the peculiar scene.

"Damn it! We didn't get a single treasure chest out of this run? All of them were snatched by Zero? We just handed him free loot."

"Don't even mention it. Ever since running into Zero, my full set of golden gear has been reduced to just three pieces. At this rate, I'll lose even my underwear."

"Why does it feel like that guy's treating us like his personal ATM?"

Infinite Phantom clenched his fists, seething with rage. "Everything we've lost, I'll make him pay back tenfold!"

———

Back in the Level 40 Carnivorous Worm Kingdom, Zhang Yue and his team had spent the entire day farming. Lin Tian, Wu Haotian, and the others had all managed to clear their infamy and turn their names white again.

Zhang Yue, however, still had a pitch-black ID.

"At this rate, you won't just miss dinner—you might not even get any sleep tonight." Wu Haotian remarked. "You went way too hard on the Infinite Guild."

"If they don't learn their lesson, I'll teach them one," Zhang Yue replied. "You guys go eat. Tonight, it's free time. Do whatever you want."

The other four left, leaving Zhang Yue alone in the vast Carnivorous Worm Kingdom.

Half an hour later, they all came back.

"Didn't I say it's free time? Why are you back?"

"We're a team!" Wu Haotian said, hoisting his blazing spear. "And in a team, we share blessings and hardships alike."

Lin Tian chimed in, "We'll help you grind off your infamy. Many hands make light work."

Ouyang Ling'er casually added, "Once you're done, Guild Leader, you owe us a midnight snack."

"Are you from Linhai City too?" Ning Tiantian asked Ouyang Ling'er.

"Yup!" Ouyang Ling'er replied. "I live alone in the city center. Honestly, my landlord's driving me crazy. I've told him about the clogged drain for ages, but he won't do anything about it. By the way, does our guild have a headquarters? Can I move there?"

Zhang Yue said, "The guild HQ will be ready within a week."

Originally, Zhang Yue had planned to build the headquarters using prize money from tournaments. But with the Infinite Guild acting as their personal ATM, the plan might just be fast-tracked.

At that moment, Zhang Yue received a Feixin Message from Su Jinyan,"Zhang Yue, be careful these days. If there's another battle involving the Infinite Guild, we at Misty Rain Pavilion might not be able to help you."

"What happened on your end?" Zhang Yue asked.

"The Infinite Guild retaliated against us in the high-tier regions today and issued a warning: If we continue opposing them, they'll launch a full-scale suppression of Misty Rain Pavilion."

Meanwhile, F4's group chat lit up with a message from Liu Yao:

"Damn it! The Infinite Guild is so shameless. They can't beat us newbies, so now they're targeting veterans."

Apparently, Supreme Guild had also come under pressure from the Infinite Guild. By attacking veteran members in high-tier regions, the Infinite Guild was isolating Zhang Yue from any support from Misty Rain Pavilion or Supreme Guild.

It was clear: Infinite Phantom was hell-bent on taking Zhang Yue down this time.

And to ensure success, they'd even enlisted experts from the prestigious Tian family in Tianjing City.

———

On a rainy night, two helicopters descended onto the rooftop of the Infinite Guild's Tianlang headquarters.

Dozens of senior guild members, including the guild's top executives and even Infinite Phantom's elder brother, Infinite Tyrant, were present to welcome the arrivals in person.

As the helicopters landed, dozens of individuals disembarked, led by a young man in a white suit. Sporting sunglasses and a luxury watch, he casually chewed on a betel nut and said indifferently,

"Let's see just how capable this beast tamer is."

"To think he's worth the Tian family's personal involvement, he must be special." [T/N: Plot thickens]
