Reborn in HXH: I Plundered Infinite Traits

What surprised Riku was that the trait on the opponent wasn't merely Gold-tier; rather, it was her very first trait.

Administrator!

This meant the person before him possessed administrator privileges, and her privilege ability was also very special: directly unlocking the entire map.

Perfect!

As for her other Gold traits, they were more inclined towards non-combat attributes—nice to have, but not essential.

"Player, excuse me, are you listening to me? In this game, anyone wearing the ring can use two types of magic. The first is 'Gain'. When you want to use it, you just need to extend the hand wearing the ring and shout..."

Elena was still explaining the gameplay to Riku.

As the beginner guide, she had to explain the operation methods within this game to all players.

However, she noticed that this player didn't seem to be listening to her explanation at all. Instead, he was looking at her with a bizarre gaze, making her inexplicably feel a chill run down her spine.

Then, under Elena's bewildered gaze, the opponent slowly walked towards her.

"Player... you cannot attack me. If you insist on attacking, you will violate the rules of this game and be subjected to a period of confinement."

Elena was somewhat speechless, feeling that the opponent seemed to want to attack her. But as one of the administrators of this game, she possessed very high privileges.

Any player attempting to attack a Game Master would be punished by the game's rules.

But before she could finish speaking, Riku had already arrived right in front of her.

And extended his hand, reaching towards her.

Hum~~

A wondrous scene occurred: a transparent light screen appeared in front of Riku.

It directly blocked Riku's hand, and the entire game world even flashed with red alarms.

[Warning! Warning! Warning!]

[Player is attempting to attack a Game Administrator. Please cease illegal behavior immediately, otherwise you will bear the game's punishment! Warning! Warning!]

The warning sounds echoed throughout the entire game lobby.

As the beginner guide, Elena continued to look at the opponent with a smile.

She understood that the opponent's attack simply couldn't touch her; at least, this was a fact verified by the passage of so much time since the game's creation.

Riku was also somewhat surprised, because he was startled to find a peculiar pressure appearing in front of him.

Nen pressure!

Essentially, it was the Nen strength of the game's creator resisting him.

The opponent blocked his attack.

And it wasn't just blocking; to be precise, it possessed a rebounding effect.

This was what truly surprised Elena. As a beginner guide who had worked here for a long time, she had naturally encountered all sorts of players. Among them were players who harbored malicious intentions because of her beauty, seemingly attempting to attack her here. However, their ends were all very miserable: they were directly rebounded away and then confined in the game for a period of time.

Since then, all players knew that they could not attack these beginner guides or other official NPCs within the game.

This knowledge had even been compiled into external databases. All players entering this game would learn about this information beforehand and restrain themselves.

But she didn't expect this guy before her to clearly be an incredibly arrogant person.

Yet what truly shocked Elena was that the opponent should have been rebounded away, but instead, he remained standing firmly in place.

Could it be that there's a problem with the game's protection rules? It's no longer rebounding? Just blocking?

Elena was somewhat puzzled.

However, in the next second, the bewilderment in her widened, beautiful eyes was replaced by shock, astonishment, and even terror.

As a beginner guide, she had essentially zero combat power. She was one of the co-founders of this game, responsible for some parts of the game's development, which had absolutely nothing to do with combat power.

That was why she took on the role of beginner guide here after the game was launched.

But now.

Under Elena's bewildered gaze, the light screen protecting her shattered like a popping bubble with a pop.

Then, the opponent's hand reached directly towards her head.

At this moment, Elena's mind went completely blank.

"..."

For a moment, she didn't even know what to do, because she simply couldn't understand why the game rules protecting her had been broken.

Riku, on the other hand, understood perfectly well.

Because his Nen pressure had surpassed that of the game's creator.

Or rather... Ging!

Or rather... the intensity of the Nen Ging left behind back then!

Am I going to die?!

Elena was stupefied.

As a game administrator, she had never considered this question. She merely followed the instructions Ging left behind when creating this game, helping to run it here. As an administrator, she naturally wouldn't face any mortal danger.

But now, in this instant, she deeply felt the malice coming from the player before her.

In her terror, Elena squeezed her eyes shut nervously.

But the expected scene of her head being crushed didn't occur. Instead, everything seemed to stop, and there was no sound in the air.

Elena couldn't help but slowly open her eyes, looking in bewilderment as the opponent's hand stopped right in front of her.

A faint curve slowly appeared on the corners of the opponent's mouth. The hand that was originally meant to grab her had changed into a flicking posture.

Thump—

"Wuwuwu... it hurts, hurts, hurts... wuwuwu..."

Elena was directly flicked to the ground. Sitting with her long, slender legs spread out, she clutched her red and swollen forehead, her eyes brimming with tears.

That expression looked exactly as if she had literally been hit until she cried.

Not just looked like it, she was!

[Ding! Congratulations on defeating Game Administrator Elena in a combat stance. 10% chance to automatically copy opponent's trait in progress...]

[Ding! Copy successful... Congratulations on acquiring [Super Memory] - Gold!]

[Ding! Continuous Lucky Star trait activated. Designating copy of opponent's trait in progress... Congratulations on acquiring [Administrator: Omniscient Monitor] - Gold.]

...

Voices resembling the sounds of nature rang out in Riku's mind.

In that instant, a massive amount of information flooded his brain, a portion of which was regarding the super memory.

In reality, this Gold trait was essentially an auxiliary life skill trait for Riku, because possessing Super Copy was practically equivalent to having another form of super memory.

Of course, no one would turn away a Gold trait. Having it would be quite useful in other aspects as well.

But what truly excited Riku was the trait regarding Elena's administrator privileges.

System Trait: [Administrator: Omniscient Monitor] - Gold Description: This trait is effective within the G.I. Game World. You gain partial administrator privileges, allowing you to monitor the vast majority of areas within the entire game world, including unreleased areas, and including all players without special buffs.

Perfect!

In other words, possessing this trait was equivalent to having a map-hack within the game, allowing him to directly lock onto almost all players.

Isn't this just cheating?

Comfortable! He didn't expect to be able to directly copy even the traits of a game administrator within the game world. His system was truly far above any foundation in this world!

Riku smiled and offered a hand to Elena.

"Uh!?"

The girl who had been hit until she cried, her eyes brimming with tears and her little nose still sniffling continuously, looked bewilderedly at the man before her.

"Sorry, wasn't paying attention just now."

Riku smiled.

But before the girl could speak, an ear-piercing alarm sounded throughout the beginner guide lobby.

[Detected malicious attack on Game Administrator by a player. The player is being confined for 24 hours...]

The ear-piercing alarm rang incessantly. A peculiar force surged around Riku's body, seemingly attempting to forcefully transfer him to this so-called game prison.

But surprisingly, this force seemed unable to directly force Riku's transfer. He seemed as if he were welded into the lobby.

This forced transfer continued for several seconds before Riku suddenly smiled.

"I see..."

He seemed to understand something and deliberately dispelled the Nen protecting him. In the next instant, Riku vanished from the spot.

He had been forcefully sent to the confinement area in the game, where all players who maliciously broke the rules were sent.

Meanwhile, Elena, with tearful eyes and a slightly red and swollen forehead, remained in the lobby.

It took a full minute for her to react.

"Wuwuwu... this player seemed to apologize to me just now. Maybe he didn't do it on purpose... just an accident... I... I must tell the others..."

Elena hurriedly stood up and connected her communicator to the administrator channel.

"Are you guys there?! I need help here, please answer me immediately," Elena spoke up.

"Oh? Is it Elena? Did you run into some trouble today?"

"You're not craving sweets, are you? If you interrupt my research at a crucial moment like this, I'll be very angry."

"It's Elena, can't you speak a little more politely? Elena, whatever it is, just say it."

...

Replies quickly came through the administrator communicator.

"I encountered a player today, and he was put in confinement. But I believe this player definitely didn't do it on purpose. I want to ask you guys to let this player out of the confinement room early..."

Elena hurriedly said.

Because she felt that if Riku had truly wanted to maliciously attack her, he absolutely wouldn't have turned an opportunity that clearly could have killed her into a simple flick on the forehead.

Therefore, she felt the opponent harbored no malice. Perhaps there was a system glitch just now, which allowed the opponent to touch her.

"Hahaha! Elena, did someone bully you again? I told Ging long ago, something as simple as being a game receptionist would be better handled by me. Pretty girls like you always get bullied easily. [Maniacal Laughter JPG]"

"That won't do. If you go be a game receptionist, then no one will be guarding the final stage."

"Elena, did the opponent hurt you? If that's the case, you don't need to sympathize with the opponent. Hearts are sinister in this game, we must also learn to protect ourselves."

"Don't worry, Elena. Who in this game world could possibly hurt us? It's nothing more than those low-quality players having inappropriate thoughts about you. How about I make you a module that can hide your face?"

...

"Wuwuwu... sister, the opponent didn't... didn't bully me... I was just flicked on the forehead. But this player was put in confinement, so I want to ask you guys to let him out... I believe this player harbors no malice."

Elena said pitifully.

"Hahahaha! Flicked on the forehead? Elena, maybe he likes you. You are at the age where you should be dating..."

"Yeah, hahaha, is that guy handsome? If he's ugly, forget it. Wait! What? What did you just say? The opponent flicked you on the forehead?"

"Impossible! We are administrators in this game, how could we possibly be touched by these players? List, do you see any intrusion logs on your end?"

"No, but I see a record of an alarm just now, it should be this exact instance."

"Elena? How could this player possibly touch you?"

...

After reacting, the other administrators were all dumbfounded.

This was simply unprecedented.

It was exactly like someone telling you one day that they could pause time; at the very least, it completely shattered the worldview of these game administrators. As administrators of this game, they were incredibly clear on how perfect it was.

At least in the decades it had been running, there had never been any problems, nor had any player truly been able to touch them, the administrators.

Let alone directly harming them, the game administrators.

Especially Elena, the beginner guide. Because she lacked combat power, she was given very high defense privileges during the initial setup.

In other words, did the opponent completely break through the defense privileges to attack Elena?

"Wuwuwu... I don't know either, but it's true. Let me show you how I look right now..."

Elena, with tearful eyes, pointed the camera at herself to show the other administrators the red, swollen area on her forehead.

Hiss—

Upon seeing the wound on Administrator Elena's forehead, the administrators present couldn't help but gasp.

In the chat window, the previous lightheartedness and teasing completely vanished.

Instead, what remained was an unprecedented calmness and seriousness.

She really was hurt!

This meant that in those few seconds just now, a player had broken through the defense privileges Ging had left in this game world and harmed Elena, a game administrator.

This was simply an unprecedented occurrence.

"The situation is extremely bad. It seems the disaster Ging predicted would eventually befall the game has probably already begun. It seems I should take the initiative to attack. Only by kicking this unstable mapping, this bug, out of the game can we maintain the game's stability."

A naive-looking muscular avatar flashed in the chat group.

The Administrator with the Highest Combat Power · Razor!

He understood.

He absolutely could not allow this danger to continue, otherwise it could highly likely lead to the collapse of the entire game.
