Chapter 612: 100 Man Slaughter

Translator: Halcyon Translations Editor: Halcyon Translations

There’s a demon within everyone. Some hid it well, while some never bothered to hide it at all.

Lu Li had always been hiding the demon within him because he knew that he had more to do than playing a game. This game was his job; it was his way to save his sister and ensure their living standards.

However, these people had crossed over his line and his financial situation wasn’t as desperate as before.

The demon within him awoke and began to devour lives around him.

It didn’t take long for people to notice Lu Li. They quickly found that he was the player who had previously escaped. However, there was no time to pay attention to him since this was a large-scale fight.

There was no way that the random players and those from smaller guilds would just rush past them.

There would always be some players who enjoyed killing others in this confusion. Some of them had even been killed before by mercenaries, so this was their chance for revenge.

A lot of PVP maniacs also seized their chance.

Regardless of the end goal of each individual, this pathway to Zul’Farrk had suddenly become a dense war zone.

Unlike the Scarlet Monastery, the Horde faction didn’t have any advantages. The desert also provided a wide, open space and the battleground extended for a long distance.

These few hundred players from the mercenary group were very busy.

Even so, there were still two to three of them who chose Lu Li as their target.

A Frostbolt, a Shadowbolt and a Faerie Fire almost landed in sync onto Lu Li.

Most control skills depended heavily on distance between their targets, so it was hard to control a single target that moved at a rapid speed. They chose to burst him down instead; it was three against one.

-124!

-110!

The third skill, Faerie Fire, wasn’t exactly a damaging spell. It was a spell that prevented Thieves from going into Stealth. The first two skills only took about two hundred points of health from Lu Li. The three players felt a cold chill down their spine – they used spells with a casting time, so how could the damage be so low?

What made the situation even worse was that they saw their target recover the lost health in an instant.

If you paid close attention, you could see that as the Thief attacked, a blood-colored mist would fly from his target towards him and be absorbed.

This was the Lifesteal effect.

Whoever this was definitely had an equip with Lifesteal.

Once the three players realized this, they no longer saw Lu Li as a free kill.

As their mindset changed, so did their attitude and what they saw.

Why did he move so fast? Why did he attack so fast? Why was his damage so high, and why did he have such a strong Lifesteal effect?

They couldn’t possibly imagine how much of a bug the Supreme Ring was.

The Lifesteal attribute of the ring was more than that of a few equips combined.

His attack speed was even crazier. The Shard of the Defiler was already a Dark Gold grade weapon that was known across the continent for its attack speed, and he also had other effects that also boosted this attribute.

Lu Li’s critical strike damage was much higher than the average players. Many players died within five hits without even realizing it.

Of course, Lu Li noticed that he had been attacked.

He finished off his target and pounced towards the Druid.

The Druid was caught by surprise and quickly retreated, but his speed wasn’t enough to interrupt Lu Li’s plans. He stunned the Druid first with a Gouge, then used Shadowstrike. With three combo points, he casted Slit Throat.

Slit Throat was a very useful skill against players and Lu Li had already upgraded it to level 5.

Lu Li took no longer than 20 seconds to dispatch the Druid, while also tanking the damage of a Mage and a Warlock.

His Lifesteal effect quickly replenished the health points that he had lost. Lu Li’s health remained at a safe amount as he sent off the other two players with the same method. His health returned to full in the battles that followed.

Although his hands never stopped moving, he wasn’t blindly searching for any random target.

Most of the time, he chose to attack in areas where there were little players, and most of his targets were Cloth-armored.

As his rage boiled, he continued to kill.

Because his attacks were too fast, his Lifesteal effect was often triggered. It was as if Lu Li was covered in a mist of blood.

If he only killed a dozen players, he wouldn’t be too noticeable. After all, this was a group-fight of thousands of players. However, after his attack had increased by 50%, he began killing players within three to five hits. He could even kill some players with two hits if he critically struck. These slain players began whining in their own channels.

"I got killed by a Thief."

"I got killed by a Thief too, his damage is so high."

"I was also killed by a Thief. I had more than half of my health, but I died in two shots."

"What was that before? I don’t even know how I died. Why didn’t you heal me?"

"I... I think I died too. I had full health – how did I die in three shots?"

This was the advantage that the legendary equipment of assassins provided. Lu Li could even stack up to 100% with this item. Among all of the other assassin equips, this bracer was one of the best. If he could consistently kill more than a hundred players...

Can you imagine what it would be like if two Lu Li’s attacked the same person?

Low-leveled Cloth classes would die before they even got a chance to react.

"It’s him!" When the channel was filled with talk about this violent Thief, someone finally discovered Lu Li. This Thief was glowing with a red light and continued to harvest lives at an astonishing speed.

After around half an hour, he had already killed more than a hundred players.

The majority of the random players had already rushed past. At this point, everyone who was left was either too slow, or had come later. They were slowly being slaughtered by the mercenary group.

Lu Li was a total surprise.

"****, kill him! We’ll do it together!" someone shouted as they led a group and pounced towards Lu Li.

Lu Li could kill a hundred people because of his assassin equipment. However, the confusion in the environment also made the situation much more convenient for him. The majority of the players that he faced were by themselves.

Once the situation changed, he glowed brightly like a firefly in the dark.

Dawn was a game that focused on balance. With enough players attacking him at the same time, he wouldn’t be able to do much.

However, Lu Li didn’t escape.

The desert was crawling with players everywhere.

These mercenary players thought they were strong with their few hundred men as they slaughtered the random players. But now, they finally saw true strength before their eyes and realized how small they were compared to the real world.

"Kill all of them! Ruling Sword, charge now!" Square Root 3 sat on his mount and waved his hand as he signaled an attack.
