After the game announcement, a holographic window appeared.

Lines of data filled the display, showing the names and points of the top fifty players. The rankings kept shifting as new scores rolled in.

Players fixed their eyes on the leaderboard.

In the Assault Squad group chat, Danelle suddenly exclaimed: [Rodger, you’re on the leaderboard. You’re in fiftieth place. Wait, you’re climbing up. Oh, now you’re dropping again.]

Rodger: [Check out Leeanne.]

Danelle: [Whoa, Leeanne’s in the top twenty and still moving up. Huh, looks like Gideon’s in first place.]

Rodger: [Yeah, Gideon’s been holding the top spot the whole time.]

Leeanne: [Derick actually made it onto the leaderboard for a while.]

They realized the points were being counted from the start of the hunt yesterday. Before Leeanne took Derick out, Derick had been on the board the whole time, which meant he’d started killing as soon as he set foot on the island.

The names on the leaderboard kept shuffling up and down, but Gideon held onto first place like a rock, never budging.

Players were buzzing with chatter.

[This leaderboard is fun to watch. It even shows the time. Looks like it’s up to eleven in the morning now.]

[Who’s Gideon? How is he so badass? He’s been dominating first place the whole time.]

[Isn’t he the crazy killer Lillian mentioned? The one who’s always hanging out with Emmett?]

[Derick’s pretty impressive too. He’s a serial killer indeed. He was always in the top five. Wait, where’d he go?]

(Derick’s dead, remember? Leeanne took him out.]

[Leeanne’s been in the top twenty, but her position keeps shifting. She’s not stable on the board.]

[Guess it’s because she doesn’t kill much.)

Ah, so she probably won’t even make it into the top ten this time. What a shame.]

Leeanne wasn’t bothered by the rankings. Even if her points didn’t make the leaderboard, she honestly couldn’t care less

She’d already scored big in this island hunt–wheat, pumpkin, and oat seeds, and a blueprint for throwing daggers. The real jackpot was Bob’s treasure chest, which she looted, scoring her a pair of boots with crazy Agility.

The points were updating at lightning speed. In just seven or eight minutes, the leaderboard had already tallied scores all the way up to nine o’clock at night.

Some of the top players suddenly disappeared from the rankings. Clearly, someone had taken them ont

Only Gideon was still dominating the top spot.

Soon enough, the leaderboard updated to eleven o’clock at night, and by then, Leeanne had been knocked out of the top twenty.

The points kept coming in, and everyone was watching eagerly, totally hooked.

[Geez, Gideon’s unshakable. From the very start, no one’s been able to snatch first place from him.]

[Leeanne’s nowhere on the leaderboard now. She used to always be at the top.]

[That’s odd. What was Leeanne doing between nine and eleven? Didn’t she kill anyone, not even a single beast, during those two hours?]

[What a shame. Looks like Leeanne’s finally getting knocked off her pedestal. Gideon’s on the rise.]

Leeanne thought about it. Between nine and eleven, she’d been busy tracking down loot with her treasure finder.

No wonder she hadn’t racked up any points.

But wait, after finding Bob’s stash, she’d taken out that giant frog and scored a treasure chest. She’d actually done quite a bit and earned points for it.

And she’d earned a ton!

Suddenly, the leaderboard went wild. Leeanne’s name skyrocketed from the lower ranks straight to number one, knocking Gideon out of the top spot.

The chat channel exploded.

[Look, it’s Leeanne! She’s actually in first place now, with over 200 more points than Gideon.]

[This is exciting. Gideon’s finally been dethroned.]

[Leeanne must’ve done something crazy in those two hours to score so many points all at once.]

[Amazing, Leeanne is just unstoppable. She’s still a legend at the top.]

[Yeah, who was it that said Leeanne was falling from grace? Looks like you have to eat your words. She’s still a powerhouse.]

[Leeanne is the one true god of District 33.]

The players were way more excited than Leeanne herself.

In the Assault Squad group chat, Danelle wrote: [Wow, Leeanne, you’re incredible. You got to the top of the leaderboard without even relying on kills. I never saw that coming.]

Rodger: [Same here.]

William: [Congrats!]

Everyone was thinking the same thing They wondered what Leeanne actually did in those two hours to rack up so many points.

Was Leeanne lucky enough to snag some treasure again?

But nobody asked. They all kept quiet about it.

When the leaderboard finally locked in, Leeanne was still reigning at the top, and Gideon was firmly in second place. No one managed to surpass either of them.

The game announcement flashed across the screen again.

[District 33 leaderboard final results: First place, Leeanne; second place, Gideon; third place…. seventh place. Rodger; eighth place, William…

[First place rewards: 1 point added to all stats, and I Invincible Suit, consisting of 4 items.

[Second and third place rewards: Valor Suit, consisting of 4 items. Fourth to tenth place rewards: Mighty Suit, consisting of 2 items.

[Rewards for the top ten players have been distributed. Please check your inventory.

[The first island hunt has concluded successfully. Please wait for the server merge announcement.]

Everyone rushed to check out the stats of the gear.

[Invincible Suit: 1 Invincible Armor, 1 Invincible Helmet, 1 pair of Invincible Boots, 1 pair of Invincible Bracers. Set Bonus: Boosts Constitution, Strength, and Agility by 5 points each.

[They never get dirty, bloody, or damaged by fire or water, and always stay clean. They have healing effects and restore health.]

[Valor Suit: 1 Valor Armor, 1 Valor Helmet, 1 pair of Valor Boots, 1 pair of Valor Bracers. Set Bonus: Boosts Constitution, Strength, and Agility by 3 points each. They can unleash a burst of valor, massively boosting Strength.]

[Mighty Suit: 1 Mighty Armor, 1 Mighty Helmet, 1 pair of Mighty Boots, 1 pair of Mighty Bracers. Set Bonus: Boosts Constitution, Strength, and Agility by 2 points each.]

Leeanne looked at the three sets and honestly didn’t care much for them. In her eyes, only the Invincible Suit was worth it. There were tons of effects, big stat boosts, and it even healed one over time. Now that was some solid gear.

The Valor Suit was alright, but the Mighty Suit felt pretty basic.

Truth was, Leeanne was the only one who thought these sets were nothing special. For everyone else, even the Mighty Suit was extremely hard to come by.

Most players could barely get their hands on gear that boosted their stats, and some didn’t even have any equipment at all. So scoring something that added two points to their stats was, of course, good.

At least, the players who got their hands on these suits were absolutely thrilled, and everyone in the chat was envious.

[Whoa, these suits are awesome. There are so many stat boosts. I’m seriously envious.]

[Look at the Invincible Armor. It’s wild, adding five points to every attribute.]

[The Invincible Suit stays clean whether one’s swimming, rolling in mud, or even covered in blood. I love it.)

[Yeah, whenever we go adventuring and get into fights, we end up totally caked in mud. It’s so uncomfortable. This Invincible Suit keeps one clean and comfy.]

[Those two must be girls, right? You’re totally missing the real point. Who cares if your gear stays clean? The healing effect is what really matters. Now she doesn’t even need healing salve for little cuts.]

Even though there were three suits in the rewards, most of the chat was focused on the Invincible Suit

After all, it was the one that grabbed everyone’s attention.

Emmett stared at the leaderboard for a long time before messaging Gideon: [Look, even with all those kills, you still couldn’t beat Leeanne. Her Invincible Suit is awesome, and she has 1 point added to every stat on top of it.]

Gideon: [Yeah, that’s good. I like it.]

Emmett was caught off guard. [What do you like?]

Gideon: [The Valor Suit.]
