As they say, Karma was a b*tch. Had Li Yi encountered any other player that was not Bai Xiaoya, Li Yi would not have launched a sneak attack.
“Thud! Thud!”
Ding!
“Thud!”
After firing three arrows, Dolly rushed towards Bai Xiaoya.
“Someone’s making a sneak attack!”
Just as the arrows were about to strike Bai Xiaoya, an Orc Warrior playing as a main tank ran over to her side. He swiped his shield horizontally and blocked all three arrows.
Clang! Clang! Clang!
The three arrows fell onto the ground, and Bai Xiaoya narrowly escaped.
Thump! Thump! Thump!
The Orc Warrior took large strides towards Dolly’s position. He had accurately pinpointed Dolly’s position!
‘What amazing combat prowess!”
Li Yi was slightly stunned at the Orc Warrior’s abilities. However, he quickly regained his composure, pulled back his bow, and fired at Bai Xiaoya.
“God Mode!”
“Water Clone!”
“True Overlord Arrow!”
Tch-tch-tch—
Li Yi fired three flaming phoenixes in a single breath, and they hurtled towards Bai Xiaoya’s position with unstoppable force.
True Overlord Arrow’s area of attack was extremely vast, and it was not easy to completely avoid it. Players needed to either pre-emptively crouch down or run horizontally to evade it. Even then, however, they had to move fast.
“Divine Earth Shield!”
The Orc Warrior rushing towards Dolly suddenly halted, and lifted the shield in his hand hurriedly.
A tortoise-shell-like golden light spread out with the shield as its center, and quickly enveloped all the members of his party.
The three phoenixes let loose a shriek as they slammed into the tortoise shell, disappearing almost instantly...
“Boom! Boom! Boom!”
[?56778897]
[?76665444]
[?87766655]
Three damage figures popped up from the tortoise shell, and after shaking violently for a moment, it stabilized.
The tortoise shell did not shatter even after receiving three vicious blows from True Overlord Arrow!
Li Yi was slightly in awe of the unfamiliar Orc Warrior.
Although Li Yi did not remember the participants of the God Wars in his previous life like the back of his hand, he was confident that he could recall the players through their looks alone.
However, as Li Yi had never encountered the powerful Orc Warrior before him before, Li Yi could not identify him.
‘Who’s this punk? Iron God? Gold God? Nah, he doesn’t look like them...”
Although Li Yi did not recognize the Orc Warrior, he recalled that the only main tank Warriors that used Divine Earth Shield in his past life were Iron God and Gold God.
Iron God and Gold God were brothers, and they both chose Armored Warriors as their class. The elder brother’s name was Iron-faced God, and the younger one was called Gold-faced God. They were given the nicknames of Iron God and Gold God, and back in the God Wars rankings in Li Yi’s previous life, the brothers easily breezed their way into the top twenty through the powerful defensive skill, Divine Earth Shield. The younger brother was ranked seventeenth, and the older one was ranked at twentieth.
‘Who else but the God Brothers were able to use Divine Earth Shield?’
Li Yi could not recall.
“Stinger Arrow!”
“Thud...thud...thud...”
The moment all three of his Overlord Arrows were blocked, Li Yi immediately switched to using Stinger Arrow.
Although Stinger Arrow’s ATK paled in comparison to True Overlord Arrow, its greatest advantage was its damage over time onto a target.
Divine Earth Shield’s defensive capabilities were unmatched, and unless the shield shattered, the players within it would not take any damage. Furthermore, the players within it can also attack the players outside the shield.
Before Li Yi had managed to get off his Stinger Arrow, Bai Xiaoya had already ordered a counter-attack.
Li Yi fired his bow as he ran, and using his superior movement speed, he managed to evade all the attacks flung towards him.
Stinger Arrow after Stinger Arrow attached themselves to the Divine Earth shield, and they continued to rack up damage on the shield.
Although the Divine Earth Shield could block all attacks, it was not invincible. Just like players, it had its own health, and when that health pool was depleted, the shield would shatter on its own.
The Divine Earth Shield’s HP was based on the user’s health pool. It was a multiple of the user’s health, and based on Li Yi’s calculations, the Divine Earth Shield before him had at least 500 million HP.
‘This Orc Warrior’s not the usual weakling, huh?’
“Squeak! Squeak...”
Li Yi had high movement speed, and with the aid of his Chrono Territory, he could also teleport short distances away, allowing to easily avoid the attacks. However, Dolly was different. Even though she was fast approaching Level 200, her reaction speed was still quite slow, and in the face of the wave of attacks, she instantly reverted into her egg form.
“True Overlord Arrow!”
After stacking his Stinger Arrows to the maximum threshold, Li Yi switched back to using True Overlord Arrow.
Bai Xiaoya who was protected by the Divine Earth Shield, attacked both Li Yi and the green-skinned monster whenever she got the chance.
She had already seen through Li Yi’s goal.
“Dark Wing, you’re despicable. As the Number One Archer of the Continent, I never thought you would try to steal others’ kills. Keke, and to think that you’ve resorted to sneak attacks as well, aren’t you ashamed of yourself?”
“Sigh, more importantly, you can’t even carry out your sneak attack successfully. All you can do is stand there and watch as I slay my quest target. I say, you really are a disgrace.”
Bai Xiaoya had always been inciteful, and now that she had gotten a chance to dig at Li Yi, would she have
let him off the hook?
“Number One Archer, I’m about to finish my quest. Your sneak attack is going to end in failure...”
Once Bai Xiaoya insulted someone, she would never stop. She would constantly spew insults, and with that unique tone of hers, she never failed to incite her opponents, making them want to clamp her mouth shut.
Li Yi attacked at a casual pace. The Divine Earth Shield was about to shatter, and he was confident that he could finish off his opponents the moment the shield shattered.
“Pang!”
The Orc Warrior’s Divine Earth Shield broke, and in that instant, another Divine Earth Shield was erected...
The user was a Dark Elf Warrior.
“Divine Earth Shield!”
“Hahaha, Dark Wing, do you think that I’m clueless about your plan? You want to finish us off the moment the shield shatters? Hehe, what a naïve idea. You probably didn’t know that I have two Divine Earth Shield users in my party! Ahahahahaha, seeing the Number One Archer struggling fills me with glee!”
Although Bai Xiaoya’s techniques were nothing to bring home about, her leadership skill was the real deal.
Under Bai Xiaoya’s commands, the green-skinned monster, Bullus had only 80,000,000 HP remaining.
With the players’ current ATK stat, 80 million HP could be easily brought away with a single ultimate skill.
“Territory— Full Release!”
A blindingly brilliant golden barrier extended out from Li Yi, engulfing his surroundings and spanning over 100 yards!
“Shooting Star Arrow Hail!”
“Thud...thud...thud...thud...”
“Thud!”
After two shots of Shooting Star Arrow Hail, the newly erected Divine Earth Shield immediately shattered.
Once the Divine Earth Shield shattered, the players within the Chrono Territory’s range instantly became sluggish. Some players had even ground to a halt.
Aside from the Orc Warrior and the Dark Elf who were still able to move slightly, nobody could budge at all.
Li Yi’s Territory Power was currently at Rank 13, whereas Bai Xiaoya and her gang did not even reach Rank 2. With such a huge difference in rank, was it any surprise that they could not move?
“Thud...thud...thud...thud...”
Li Yi used his Meteor Arrows to kill the players off one by one.
Since Li Yi had caught several players in his Territory, his Territory Power would be expended at a greater rate. As such, it would be easier for him to restrain the others if he reduced his targets.
He first killed off the Orc Warrior and the Dark Elf Warrior. Then, he targeted the other players. In the end, Bai Xiaoya was the only one who had yet to been slaughtered.
His golden barrier was still gleaming with splendor, meaning that Li Yi still had more than half of his Territory Power.
“Keke, Fluttering Snow Alliance’s Number One Commander, Bai Xiaoya, it seems that you’ve misjudged.”
Li Yi teleported to Bai Xiaoya’s side and imitated her tone to mock her.
Li Yi thrust out his hand and removed the delicate hand-craft mask that Bai Xiaoya wore, and revealing the dainty, unprotected face behind it.
The outline of her face was similar to Sister Cat’s, and the only difference was the mole under her eye.
“Y-You... W-What do you think you’re doing? What’re you going to do to me? D-Don’t... D-Don’t you dare come close to me!”
Due to her decelerated movements, Bai Xiaoya could not even speak. What she could do, however, was to type out her words to communicate with Li Yi.
While typing her words out, Bai Xiaoya had accidentally pouted her dainty lips, giving her a seductive look.
Although the victor had already been decided, Bai Xiaoya still did not log out. She had even typed out such shameful words, and Li Yi quickly understood her intentions.
‘This Lil missy’s trying to lure me into r*ping her?’
‘F*ck, do you want me to become the second Defiant Mount Gun?’
Li Yi stifled a laugh as he tugged at Bai Xiaoya’s cheeks. He slowly pulled them outwards and released them only after a long time had passed.
With that, Bai Xiaoya’s cheeks bounced back to their original shape.
“Hahaha...” Li Yi was feeling pretty good.
“Y-You... What do you think you’re trying to do? Let me warn you, I-I’ll never forgive you if you dare act on me!”
Even though she had been toyed by Li Yi, Bai Xiaoya still did not log out. From the looks of it, she would not be satisfied unless she managed to take down Li Yi.
Li Yi produced a small arrow from his backpack and shoved it into Bai Xiaoya’s mouth.
Then a second one...
Then a third one...
A short while later, Bai Xiaoya’s mouth was filled to the brim with arrows, so much so that her cheeks were beginning to swell.
“Squeak squeak?”
Dolly who had successfully metamorphosized came flying over, and upon seeing the scene, she voiced her confusion at Li Yi.
Bai Xiaoya was so angry that she was practically shivering with rage. She was so mad that she could not even muster any words.
Had Li Yi really acted on his impulses and did things to Bai Xiaoya, the system would definitely exact punishment on him. If the punishment was light, Li Yi would be unable to log in for a couple of days. On the other hand, if the punishment was heavy, Li Yi would share the same fate as Defiant Mountain Gun, being completely wiped by the system, and ending his Pantheon days.
Bai Xiaoya was knowledgeable about the system’s rules, and as such, she originally intended to experience some minor defamation in exchange for turning Li Yi to dust. However... She was dead wrong.
Although Li Yi was a pervert, he would never do such a thing as r*ping someone in the game. Bai Xiaoya might have been versed with the game’s rules, but Li Yi understood it even better. He used all kinds of methods within the bounds of Pantheon’s rules in order to humiliate Bai Xiaoya.
“Dolly, come eat some buns...” Li Yi stroked his chest and hinted a few glances at Bai Xiaoya.
“Buns... Squeak?”
Dolly widened her eyes and gave Li Yi’s words some thought. In the end, she tilted her head until her gaze landed on Bai Xiaoya’s chest.
“Bunsss—”
Tch...
A white ball of light entered Bai Xiaoya’s clothes from her sleeves.
Li Yi’s indirect command was a success...
...
