Terrence the Dragon-Slaying Warrior scrambled to escape. Li Yi drew the orange bow and proceeded to attack Flaming Skeleton Caitley.
[-10856]
One Crippling Shot has shaved more than 10,000 off Caitley’s HP.
The benefits of Equipment Reinforcement was obvious when attacking a monster.
“Flaming Blast!”
Caitley used the same skill again and shot a spiralling flame towards Li Yi. Li Yi quickly darted to the side, barely avoiding the attack.
Thunk! Thunk!
“Chain Arrow Skill!”
[-9187]
[-9711]
Cracks appeared wherever the arrows managed to hit Caitley.
Within the King of Pantheon, most powerful Bosses possess the null hit recovery characteristic. As an example, if the Cripping Shot skill managed to hit a player’s head, a 0.5 second Dizzy will be inflicted, and a fall-back animation will happen. When that happens, other Archery skills, such as shooting at point-blank, can be used continuously to make a combo.
However, if the target has the null hit recovery characteristic, the target will not be Dizzy nor would it be forced into a fall-back animation. It will be entirely immune and would merely take damage from the attack. In this situation, no combo could be made.
Caitley, the purple Boss now standing before them, had the null hit recovery characteristic.
Since it was impossible to make a combo attack, he had no choice but to kite!
Within the narrow passageway, Li Yi avoided Caitley’s fatal attacks one after another with his accurate predicting abilities. The orange bow’s Armor Strip special effect was unavoidable to Caitley, thus her Defence continued to decrease. In a blink of an eye, her Defence fell to the negatives…
The Armor Strip special effect would only last for at most one minute if it was inflicted onto other players. However, when it was inflicted on monsters, the effect could last up to ten. As Caitley’s Defence dropped to the negatives, Li Yi’s attacks became increasingly terrifying.
Similar to attacking the ‘compounded’ Alex, Li Yi’s DPS was already over thirty thousand after approximately ten arrows. It was still increasing almost like a frenzy…
This continued until Caitley’s HP has dropped until the three million mark when its attack patterns finally changed. Instead of casting the single-target magic of Flaming Blast, she started to cast the group-attack skill – Flaming Dragon Spell!
A gigantic flaming dragon was summoned and released by Caitlyn. In the next second, the narrow passage was filled entirely by the flaming dragon. Li Yi did not even think before he took a few steps back instinctively to retreat immediately.
Ssst ssst!
[-332]
[-544]
[-322]
Although the gigantic flaming dragon did not even come into contact with Li Yi, its overwhelming heat was strong enough to make Li Yi Bleed. He clearly knew that if he was hit directly with the Flaming Dragon Spell, he would have no chance of survival.
“Wind Shield’s Protection!”
Li Yi activated his acceleration special skill to quickly escape the attack radius of the gigantic flaming dragon.
“Pseudocide! Camouflage Mode!”
After using two skills consecutively to break away from the battle, Li Yi had successfully left the battle.
Li Yi quickly backed out from the passage.
At the entrance of the passage stood Terrence the Dragon-Slaying Warrior, his body draped in the tattered ruins of his black clothing, seemingly proud and mighty despite the holes on his outfit.
“Senior Administrator, you actually survived under the attacks of the cursed Flaming Caitley! I’m so astounded.” Now, Terrence looked at Li Yi in a totally different light. All signs of contempt and disdain had vanished; instead, his eyes were now filled with surprise and a hint of admiration.
Li Yi cut straight to the point, “Do you have any way to avoid the Flaming Dragon Spell?”
Caitley’s defense was not high, but the Flaming Dragon Spell was too difficult to avoid.
Terrence spat in anger, “If I had a way, do you think I would look like this now?”
“My Dragon-Slaying Warrior Equipment Set was destroyed in the hands of Caitley. My Fetched Moon Sword had met the same fate too! Ah, all of that is no more… No more…”
Depressed, Terrence sighed repeatedly in regret and despair.
Li Yi frowned.
He had already seen Caitley’s Love Bracelet. He has his sights set on it and he will stop at nothing until he obtained that item.
The Two-man B-rank Hall of Fame Quest indeed posed some difficulties.
“Senior Administrator, where are you going?”
Just when Li Yi wanted to leave, Terrence called out, making him halt.
“What’s the problem?”
“Nothing, it’s just…” Terrence seemed embarrassed, so much to the point that he struggled for a long time before he continued, “Do you have any extra weapons with you? Can you lend me one of them? I swear on my title as the 38th prince of the Fetched Moon Country that I will never ask this without giving anything in return. Though, I have nothing on me right now…”
Ding!
[Will you respond to Terrence’s request for help?]
The System Notification window jumped in view.
Li Yi nodded and confirmed it. Then, he took a gold quality Longsword from his Backpack and passed it to Terrence.
“A gold equipment! This is a piece of gold equipment!”
Even though this gold sword’s attributes were nothing out of the ordinary, but Terrence was still visibly stunned and excited when he held it in his hands. After all, that nice-sounding sword of his, the Fetched Moon Sword, was merely a blue quality sword. It was two levels below this gold quality sword.
“With this sword, I might just be able to defeat Caitley!” Terrence could no longer wait to go into battle once more. However, he was shaking his head dejectedly again in the next moment. “Even though ordinary fire could not bring me harm, but Caitley’s flames were granted by that Wicked Flaming Dragon. I will never be able to defeat it unless I possess the legendary Frost Armor.”
Terrence grumbles continued for a long time. However, no System Notification came into view. After a long wait, Li Yi left in disappointment.
In the darkened passage, Lonely Semi City the Fire Emperor was still farming monsters. Flash, Frost Rising Star, Meteor Volcano…
Lonely Semi City was not great in PK battles, but the greatest forte of this player was how he could level up almost terrifyingly quick. His techniques in farming were definitely brilliant, his tempo control was so perfect it was as if he was a perpetual motion machine that could farm continuously.
Li Yi stood at the side and observed for a while. When it comes to this ‘no-sleep powerhouse’ that could level like a perpetual motion machine that needed no food, drinks, nor sleep, Li Yi was entirely filled with admiration and nothing else…
Li Yi checked his Online Friends List and realized that among all of his close friends, only Autumn Love was online.
It was quite surprising that Xu Man, Moonlight Ocean, Confused Fox, Flower Underpants, and the others were all offline…
“Missy Autumn, are you there?” Li Yi sent a mail over to Xu Man.
Autumn Love’s reply came quickly. “Yeah, what’s up?”
“Help me buy a set of Frost Armor for Warriors, the set that drops in the Frost Dungeon.”
After ten minutes, Autumn Love had arrived by Li Yi’s side with a set of Frost Armor with her.
That was the advantage of having the friend summoning tool. The summoning could be done anytime, anywhere.
“A set of Frost Armor costs 13 Gold Coins, delivery costs 50 Gold Coins. That’s a total of 63 Gold Coins. Payment on delivery.”
Autumn Love sent a trade request to Li Yi with the Frost Armor attached. However, she refused to click on the ‘Confirm’ button.
Li Yi was astounded. “Missy Autumn, could you put that on my tab?”
Autumn Love nodded generously. “Alright, I’ll charge you 1 Gold Coin every day for interest. You could owe me as long as you like.”
This time, Li Yi did not bring any Gold Coins on him. All of his Gold Coins were saved in his ‘house’.
“Ah, I haven’t learned the skill Teleportation. How should I go back? Brother Dark Wing, I have just calculated the one-way cost for me to come here. I must also calculate the cost for my return trip. I’ll need at least five hours to run back to where I come from. One hour will cost 200 Gold Coins…”
“Brother Dark Wing, you owe me 1063 Gold Coins.”
“You’re better off robbing me then!”
“Time is Gold Coins, my friend.” Autumn Love spread her arms helplessly as she smiled at Li Yi.
“Alright, note it down for now.” Even though Li Yi seemed to have agreed to the proposition, he was very reluctant inside. If he knew that the Black Autumn would be so black-hearted, he would have requested help from an Ice Mage in his Guild.
Li Yi waved off Autumn Love. “You can leave now, you have no business staying around here anymore!”
Initially, he had another reason to call Autumn Love over. He hoped to let her help in the battle against Caitley since the Ice Wizard’s Frost Protection was a direct counter of all Fire Spells. However, he had now changed his mind. If he really asked for the help of this Black Autumn, there was a high chance that his debt will no longer be just 1000 Gold Coins. He might as well just get another Wizard from his guild.
Suddenly, Autumn Love shrieked in surprise, “Brother Dark Wings, is this the Wailing Grotto?”
Li Yi nodded. “To be more accurate, this is the depths of the Wailing Grotto.”
“This is great! I’ve just gotten a quest to find a red treasure chest in the depths of the Wailing Grotto.” Autumn Love withdrew a red key and waved it before Li Yi’s eyes.
“Oh, if that’s the case, does this mean that you’re staying here to do your quest?”
“Of course, of course.”
“If you were to come to the Wailing Grottos from the Western Continent, you’ll need at least five hours even when you’re traveling by a flying mount. You’ll need another three days or more to walk from the entrance to the depth of the Grottos. Since I was the one who pulled you here, Missy Autumn, what do you think I should charge…”
“Cough, cough. Brother Dark Wings, you’re Second to None on the Invincible Continent. You have great amounts of money and a remarkable reputation. I believe that such a mighty person will never take advantage of such a weak woman as I, right?”
Autumn Love’s face was stretched with a tight smile before she left the party and ran away as fast as she could. She looked like she was dead terrified of Li Yi asking her for money.
“Second to None? That’s my title, mine! Meteor Volcano!”
From afar, Lonely Semi City bellowed. Flames erupted afterward, eliminating a bunch of Dark Elementals.
Li Yi chuckled. He did not go after Autumn Love, but instead went to join Lonely Semi City’s party to farm monsters together…
His previous attacks on Caitley was just an experiment. Jiaojiao was not online yet, and the Two-man B-rank Hall of Fame Quest needed two people for completion. If only one of them were online, the quest will never be completed.
Thus, his focus was now on leveling up. Even though he did not have any EXP Buff to boost his progress, their speed was quick enough for the level up to happen soon…
“Meteor Volcano!”
“Shoot at Random!”
Both Li Yi’s and Lonely Semi City’s DPS was incredibly high, and their progress accelerated even further once they have combined their efforts. In the blink of an eye, Dark Elementals within a large area all died, contributing to the quick increase of their EXP.
After approximately an hour of sustained effort, Autumn Love ran out from the passageway. When she saw the sheer amount of Dark Elemental Cores that covered the ground, her eyes shone brightly with excitement.
“You… Both of you are so wasteful! Corpses, so many corpses; money, all of these are money…”
Black Autumn’s eyes shone with greed and instinctively went to harvest the bodies of the Dark Elementals…
Dark Elementals do not drop equipment or Coins. Instead, the only two materials that drop are the Elemental Shards or Cores. Li Yi and the others would never pick them up because both Elemental Shards and Cores are relatively common and too worthless. Picking those up was a complete waste of time.
“So many materials… Mine, all of these are mine! Don’t take them away from me, Brother Dark Wing, Brother Wizard, don’t you dare take them away from me…”
Autumn Love went on a looting spree, but she forgot that she was not in a party with Li Yi right now. On top of that, their camps were already different in the first place, thus aside from party mode and peace mode, her HP could easily fall with any other modes available.
Autumn Love ran into the flames that was cast by Lonely Semi City to loot for materials and failed to notice the dropping HP bar above her head. After ten seconds, a squeal came from within the flames.
Wham!
Autumn Love collapsed onto the ground and died!
Blue, gold, green, and purple equipment alongside a variety of materials dropped, the amount was enough to fill a 9×9 box. Black Autumn suffered a major loss from death…
Terrence the Dragon-Slaying Warrior scrambled to escape. Li Yi drew the orange bow and proceeded to attack Flaming Skeleton Caitley.
