Ancient Myth started with 8 billion players in the beginning and after knowing the game's amazing effects and its uniqueness after a few hours the number of players became 20 billion which was a terrifying figure since even the most popular game before it known as Clash of Titan at its absolute peak only had 22 billion players.
Now after more than 10 hours of playing the number of players inside the server of Ancient Myth reached a terrifying 50 billion people, this forced almost all the other games servers to close down since be it old or young all people were only interested in the new game, some of the game developers said that the server can hold the whole human population which was more than 150 billion this made even more wanting to start developing in Ancient Myth since the longer you wait the harder for you to catch-up to the leading players.
"Big brother thanks for your words"
"Little girl do you think I'm saying this just to encourage you," Tony said while shaking his head "listen Suzy of all people I met your talent is ranked in the top 10 because you have a great reaction time and a good adaptive nature, like how you got inspired by my fighting even though I could give you an advice how to fight but I let you alone to test you and you actually excited what I expected from you because just by watching me for few seconds your way of fighting and handling the humanoid planet changed completely if I guess correctly you never had trained before right?".
Suzy nodded her head while being in a surprised and shocked state "big brother are you saying that I have the talent to become a gaming master" she asked him with a voice full of hope.
"Gaming master" Tony sneered "those called gaming masters are all just a bunch of trash in the eye of those truly strong, what I'm saying is that you have to exceed them and became one of the Ancient Myth legends" the two sisters were looking at each other with the most surprised look Suzy was even close to crying when he suddenly asks "which elements did you have an affinity with".
In Ancient Myth there are nine elements:
five basic:Fire,Water, Light, Dark and Earth
three advance: Ice, Lightning and Wind
one special Time. For a melee class player only through fighting and with luck and enough skills will be able to find the element that has an affinity with, but magical class players get the privilege to know what kind of element affinity they have the moment a class is chosen and how the system is a mystery.
"When I chose mage I felt a slight ticklish in my head and then the goddess said I have a fire, earth, and wind" Suzy replied with a proud tone while holding her head in the air which made Tony flick her in the forehead.
"Good girl you have two basic and one advance elements with this my guess is not completely baseless and you truly have the potential of reaching a great high" in the system guide it said that having an affinity with an element means the ability to train and utilize that element easily, one can also train in elements that have no affinity with but the difficulty will be hundred times harder, he locked then at Maya "what about you"
"I have an affinity with water and earth which are perfect for healer"
"Not bad, although you don't have an insane potential like your sister, still with good dedication and training she won't leave you far behind her".
Maya's fighting spirit Has been ignited by his words after all who wants their Little siblings to surpass them, yeah she doesn't have a high potential like Suzy but Maya still won't let herself be left in the dust.
"After this, I'll give you both a set of training exercises and movements so you better work hard" after saying that Tony walked to the monsters to get the loot while thinking "why am I trying this hard for them" usually he never interfere in something that has nothing to do or gain anything from, yet for the two sisters he was trying to guide and help them get stronger without knowing nothing about them which puzzled him because deep down Tony know himself for not being a nice person. Shaking his head Tony proceeded to start looting.
In the game guide, it said that the loot if not taken will be there between 5-8 hours after that it will be gone, after looting the corps of the humanoid planet he got

"What a bountiful loot big brother I never thought that you have such a good hand"
"You can say that I'm lucky and since we're probably the first to kill a humanoid planet that's why the loot is good" Tony then gave Suzy nature hand, gravity pull, 2 health potions, and earth staff while Maya ended up with planet protector and the rest of potions, the also each got 1 silver and 26 bronze with Tony taking the rest of materials.
After talking with the villagers for a bit Tony found that what was harassing them was pigs "there shouldn't be many of them so let's use the pigs for your training" he was explaining to the sisters how to improve after guering themselves.
"The thing both of you need to improve the most now is your timing when to attack and when to block or evade and the best possible way for using a skill if you get the timing right the rest will be easy" in the area were the villagers used to get herbs from 9 pigs had taken over the place so Tony lured away two from the group as he demonstrated to the girls the importance of timing but when the two sisters started trying to improve on it they found it hard especially in a ever-changing fight, takin on one big was what could do Suzy at the moment even with Maya healing it still took a burden on them so after defeating two pigs they stopped and started watching as Tony was battling two at the same time with no difficulty with his amazing footwork and exceptional timing, seeing how he was executing the skills perfectly Suzy for the second time was enlightened as she aggroed the three last pigs at the same time, although Maya was surprised because of the years the sisters now have unbreakable trust in each other and a beyond understanding thinking so she adjusted herself while measuring the distance between the pigs her sister and herself but what happened next shocked even Tony.
For a mage to cast a spell there are two ways the first is by chanting the spell and the second by drawing the magic circle in the air, when Suzy uses [Fireball] she chant it because it was easy that way while for [gravity pull] she chose drawing the circle but because of not training enough with the spell she found it hard a little to pull it off in this fight and even wasting the spell two times. But at this moment Suzy was doing what 90% of mages failed to do in other games. It was a technique that set mages apart from each other the Double casting, using [Fireball] and [gravity pull] at the same time and she actually pulled that perfectly.
"This little girl is a monster to do double-casting without coming in contact with any great mage or a training" Tony was full of praises of her because from what he knows to achieve double-casting one has first to come in contact with the technique and to have at least a partial control over the body and brain to be able to do it. So for Suzy to achieve that is Like a miracle.
"Big sis big brother did you see I used double casting" Suzy was completely shocked then started jumping and shouting from happiness because she did something only exceptional mages can do.At that moment an angry scream came from inside the fire and she saw two pigs running to her with red eyes. In the heat of happiness, Suzy actually forgot about the ongoing fight which led to the boars reaching her while she was completely defenseless.Although she did an amateur mistake, Tony from the beginning didn't take his eyes from the fight, so when the two boars attacked Suzy he was already in the motion of activating [Lightning strike] which took the rest of the monsters HP"Thank God big brother is with us""Suzy this is not the time for playing around how can you do such a stupid mistake""But sis I was just happy" Suzy replied before she lowered her head and said with a pitiful voice "I'm sorry I won't do this again" seeing how her
After battling for a while Tony completely figured out the way the boar king fights, although using the formless style for a few minutes took a heavy toll on his body, still the results were something worth the try as he comes out of that with many useful insights that will be of great help in his gaming career. So Tony used the rest of the fight to demonstrate to the two sisters how to strategize a fight and gave them a lot of advice while answering some of the difficulties they faced with their skills and movements.Half an hour passed and finally Tony finished the fight, although the fight became easy because of their party law attack strength and the boar king who can regenerate 2% of his full HP it took that much time especially when the boar king used the skill [Ferocity], a broken skill that converts all the damage taken into HP while sacrificing the defense, so the sturdy boar king became like glass to Tony it still took him some time to finish the 1000 HP of the mons
Phantasm Slasher was one of the few monstrous geniuses that appeared inside the abyss battlefield if compared then he was considered of a higher caliber than the likes of Tony and Mark because for them the existence of their master who was there to guide them and more importantly was a dithering force that forced all of their competitors to only face them inside the abyss battlefield and never use any underhand means and with the strength and abilities that Tony and Mark had having a winning streak is a simple thing, but for the Phantasm Slasher who was a lone wolf that didn't associate with anyone, it was quite hard to advance inside the abyss battlefield.Yet not only did he advance there easily, the Phantasm Slasher even had one of the longest winning streaks which reached 42 wins, this led to him becoming arrogant and refusing to join any dojo, company, or family. He even refused some of the worlds renewed Grandmasters to become a disciple under their wing, for that many
"So how does it feel to be back to your old self""It has been ages since I felt this good" replied Silent Shadow in a happy mode as he approached Tony and shakes his hand "let me introduce myself properly I'm Brandan Elias it's a pleasure meeting you" Tony replied while shaking his hand firmly "and I'm Tony'' this was a meeting between two that are going to take the world by a storm in the future. He then left Brandan in his own world as he approached the corps of the boar king for looting it."Big brother who's that person" Suzy couldn't hold herself anymore and asked with curiosity, this made Tony pat her on the head "Have you heard of the Abyss battlefield" the question made her shake her head indicating that she doesn't know about it but Maya, on the other hand, appeared to know something or two."I heard from some classmates that it's the place where you could find anything because all the powerful organizations in the world have a dealing inside the
"Since it'll be an assassin group that only appears when striking and taking down their enemies let's call it Hidden Edge" nothing was fancy about the name however when Brandan heard it his ambition that he lost many years ago started coming back to life."And they don't have to be young because even those with one leg in the grave can laked a name for themselves that's what kind of masterpiece this game is" Tony explained to Brandan his plan slowly "my requirements for the members are the first talented with an adaptive aptitude to cope with any situation they face, second they must have some achievement in martial arts and third is for each member to be loyal and honest I don't want to let a snake enter my house" those three requirements are what Tony wanted to be the foundation for Hidden Edge to be successful.Brandan was silent for a while, he would lie if he said that he wasn't interested in Tony's offer however he was hesitant because of the problems that
The area The Lone Peak Mountain was in is a level 9 monster area called the Mountains forest, and when Tony got there he faced some difficulties because the monsters here usually stayed in groups of three to five, and some of them possessed powerful skills. A single misstep could cause a party-wipe. Let alone a solo player who doesn't have an invisibility skill which made it harder for him to maneuver around the monsters. That's why he took almost an hour just to reach his destination.However when he was looking at the Lone peak mountain Tony got the feeling that it was not a simple one, after all, there were no monsters in the vicinity so he activated [Hawkeye] and he found the cause, there was an invisible barrier around it that made no monster come closer. Tony tried and found that he can enter easily so he took his time and prepared himself mentally. The first thing he did was check his player p
After resting for a minute Tony advanced again in his hunt for Beast Rocks and treasure chests. The monsters had a short respawn time, so from time to time, he would attract some of these Beast Rocks. Fortunately, there were some narrow spaces. This resulted in the Beast Rocks blocking each other’s path.Seeing this, Tony had a good idea. He started luring more Beast Rocks, and within a short moment, he had lured over 10 of these monsters. The monsters chased after Tony in a group as if they owed him money, but the narrow pathways in the mountain prevented them from even stretching their bodies. Just a slight movement and they would run into the other Mountain Beast Fighters. While Tony kept using Lightning strike, double slash, and his other skills to burn off the HP of the Beast Rocks behind him.He kept doing the same thing over and over again for three straight hours, some might find this not worth it considering the shameful loot the Beast Rocks give, howeve
