Xu Tao frowned, hearing what the veteran said.
'How did he realize I'm close to reaching Godhood?' he thought. 'Was I releasing too much of my aura?'
Just as he was feeling wary—a new popup appeared. No, it wasn't just one, but multiple at once.
[Player Khufra has sent a friend request. Accept?]
[Player Tang Nam Mu has sent a friend request. Accept?]
[Player Hage Jiro has sent a friend request. Accept?]
[Player...]
"Friend... request?" Xu Tao raised a brow, confused.
"Ah, were you the lone wolf type? Don't worry, we won't ask you to party with us later or anything. Just add us for easier communication and such," the first one to send the request, Khufra, smiled wryly.
Xu Tao was unsure what to do. Just moments ago, they had seemingly discovered his near-godhood, and now they were asking to be "friends"? He couldn't help but suspect they were after something from him… some kind of trap.
'...Wait, why am I acting all scared?'
But soon enough, realization hit him.
