William was once a gamer ranked in top 20 worldwide. After his death, he found himself in the body of an insignificant NPC in the game "God's Apocalypse." This NPC was doomed to die early in the game, filling William with dread because he knew he had only three months to live.

The game world of "God's Apocalypse" was rich with many different fantasy races, from elves to dwarves, each offering unique opportunities for him to make use of, as well as challenges to home oneself.

William was terrified because he had the knowledge of the game's future but lacked the power to change his fate. 

However, he was not without options. He retained his game panel and the unique talent "[Jack of All Trades]," which allowed him to learn skills from various professions. 

William realized that when the game's beta opened, players would arrive. As an NPC, he could assign quests to them and use his knowledge of the game's future to manipulate them to do his bidding.

He began to leverage the abilities of the players to alter his fate and grow stronger. 

William made alliances with various races, gaining their trust and learning their secrets. This enabled him to transcend the boundaries of his initial condition and steadily increase his power.

As William's power grew, players in the game started to complain: "This boss is impossibly strong and keeps getting stronger, we demand a nerf!" They were frustrated by his rapid progression and the unique challenges he posed.

In contrast, the elves venerated him: "Lord William is the ultimate chosen one, bringing an unparalleled peace to our realm." They saw him as a savior who brought stability and hope.

The mages revered him as well: "He is the trailblazer of magic, our protector. His name, William Cain, is synonymous with the god of the arcane." They admired his innovative approach to magic and his role in advancing their knowledge.

When asked how he managed to achieve such feats, William simply responded, "Knowledge is power, and it's the one thing I don't lack."

Chapter 121: Yet Another Strange Vampire

Cortana had no intention of engaging with William. He dodged the incoming ice spikes, knowing that conserving any bit of strength was crucial at this point.

Seeing Cortana's relentless attitude, William couldn't help feeling helpless.

"Hey, buddy, I'm just here to watch the show. No need to be so ruthless, right?"

But running away wasn't William's style either. With plenty of life-saving cards up his sleeve, he was inclined to try a bout of combat.

After all, Cortana's aura of evil was quite prominent in William's eyes.

On the contrary, while the other vampire's scent of blood was strong, it didn't give William much of an evil vibe.

William wasn't the type to harbor a deep-seated hatred for evil, but he could still intervene when the opportunity arose.

Besides, the other vampire would arrive soon enough.

With Angela still lying on his shoulder, William wielded his staff.
