Now, all the channels were in chaos. As time went on, the world announcement that Xiaoyao Studio had boasted about did not appear.
Well, although Chinese players and guilds were jealous, they were at least
Chinese. They had the confidence since they killed the boss.
Keep in mind, even though they’ve merged now, players from each administrative region would still team up within their region. Even though they didn’t interact much, they basically won’t team up together.
Each administrative region still has a sense of regional pride. So, compared to other administrative regions, this news isn’t as great. All the previous world honors were basically due to a player from the China region.
This originally made other administrative regions jealous. Now with Xiaoyao Studio swaggering around, bragging openly, most other administrative regions were dissatisfied.
But now, where was their world announcement? Where was the honor of killing the boss? Nothing appeared.
“Chinese gamers love to brag.” A player in the Africa region said.
“Exactly, I’ve seen it today.” added a player from the European region.
“Xiaoyao Studio, I heard you are quite amazing. Where’s the world first kill announcement you’ve talked about?” asked a player in the American region.
“I’ve even kneeled, where’s the world announcement? I’m still waiting to show my respect.” A player from Japan in the Chinese region said.
It was crazy. Every channel in the game was in chaos, and all kinds of questions and scorn followed.
Some players in the China region could not help but speak out.
“The certain studio, don’t lose face like this.’
“The certain studio, don’t play like this. If you lose face, it doesn’t matter, don’t make us lose face with you.”
“Where is the boss’s first kill you promised? Hurry up, shut their mouths.”
However, there was still no world announcement. The Chinese players were angry.
“In the future, I will not spend anything in the certain Studio. What the hell.”
“Same here.”
“Same here.”
“Same here.”
“+16895”
“589458”
Watching the unified ridicule and condemnation in each channel from the cemetery, Xiaoyao Brother Three felt a surge of rage, as if his body was about to explode.
“Brother Three, what should we do?”
“We’ve lost so much face this time.’
“Damn it, it is all that player’s fault. Let’s kill him once we go back.”
Watching the accusations, ridicule, and scolding on the screen, and then thinking of Li Yao’s smiling face, Xiaoyao Brother Three roared: “Prairie Fire, you and I will never get along!
Then, he disappeared on the spot as his vision darkened.
“Why did Brother Three log out?”
“It’s not good. It is not a normal logout, his neural wave was too intense, and the system forcefully protected him and logged him out.”
The experts of Xiaoyao Studio looked at each other and didn’t know what to do.
In a certain apartment, a young man with a gloomy expression suddenly sat up on his bed and let out a roar like a wild beast.
He was frantically smashing everything in the room, something that looked like a scene of madness.
“Prairie Fire, Prairie Fire, I am xxxxxxxxx, you xxxxx, dog xxx.”
He sprayed all kinds of foul language from his mouth, cursing and smashing at the same time. In less than two minutes, everything in the room was destroyed, and nothing intact could be seen.
“Number three, are you okay?” A middle-aged man asked as he pushed the door open.
“Boss.” Xiaoyao Brother Three panted, but he still felt like his body was about to explode. He said grimly, “I want Prairie Fire to die.”
“Then just kill him in the game. What’s the point of venting in your room?” The boss patted him on the shoulder and added, “I know there must be a reason behind this, but I also believe that you can handle it well. If you want to kill him, there’s still time now.”
“I got it.” Xiaoyao Brother Three finally calmed down, and took the new glasses handed over by his boss. He logged back into the game.
“Go and resurrect with me. If we can’t have the first kill, he won’t be able to get it either.” Xiaoyao Brother Three said to his stunned subordinates.
“Right, kill that SOB back to level zero.”
More than twenty soul-like figures rushed towards the mine to get resurrected and settle the account with Li Yao.
Of course, Li Yao knew that these guys would probably come back to take him down.
But they wouldn’t expect that in a one-on-one situation, as long as you can break the defense successfully, you can cause a lot of damage.
“Damn bugs, you’re dead.”
Mocha screamed, and the large-caliber pistol in her hand shone with a red light.
In that moment when the light flashed, Li Yao saw a small red area appear on the arm holding the gun. Li Yao’s reflexes were fast.
As soon as he saw the red area, his large sword was already slashing at that area.
Puchi…
-35
After all, Li Yao was a Hunter. His close combat damage wasn’t high, but this was relative to his bow. For an ordinary warrior, more than thirty points was considered very high, especially when it hit a level five boss.
The boss’s body suddenly stiffened, blood flowed from their arm, the glow of the gun vanished, and they sunk to one knee on the ground.
Li Yao didn’t even look at the boss after disrupting his move successfully. He raised the bronze great sword high in his hand.
The heavy sword glowed yellow, and three seconds later, the glow turned red.
At that moment, the boss was trying to stand up. Just as he was about to rise, Li Yao’s stored force slash, charged thrice, landed ruthlessly on Moka’s head.
-350
An orange injury number floated above Moka’s head, and his body was knocked to the ground by the force of the huge sword.
Pa pa pa…
The moment the three arrow towers were lowered, arrow shafts continuously pierced Moka’s body.
-110-109-105…
“Damn, is this a boss? Brother Shadow, what’s going on? I don’t understand!” Invincible Truth exclaimed in disbelief.
“This…” Shadow Trace was shocked as well, unable to understand what had happened so far.
Clearly, the boss was about to release a skill, but suddenly got interrupted. He saw clearly that Li Yao was just using a regular attack, not any stun skill. Plus, a hunter wouldn’t have a close range stun skill either.
But the boss’s skill was less than half a second from striking Li Yao, somehow it got interrupted. followed by a thrice charged stored force slash.
He was too familiar with this skill, when used by a Hunter it would not exceed a hundred in damage. But he saw three hundred, plus the three arrow towers. The boss who had 3000 blood points suddenly lost six or seven hundred, as if a fifth of its health evaporated in one go.
Then he saw the boss roll to dodge Li Yao’s second stored force slash, then half-squat on the ground, and an explosive barrel appeared in his field of vision.
But he saw Li Yao lightly strike the boss again with his sword, and the explosive barrel the boss was planting vanished in an instant.
Then, he saw the boss once again strangely kneel on the ground, holding his arm, his face twisted in pain, completely blackened by the explosion, appearing incredibly pained.
Boom…
Then he saw the boss being knocked down again by a thrice charged stored force slash when he was about to stand again. The boss then rolled over to avoid Li Yao’s next stored force slash.
In the meantime, the three arrow towers continually fired arrows.
By the time the boss was releasing his third skill, Shadow Trace was alarmed to discover that the boss’s health was already less than half.
Following that, he watched as Li Yao disrupted the boss again several times. Each interruption was accompanied by the boss dropping to one knee every time he was about to use a skill or attack.
All the while, enduring the continuous attacks from three arrow towers firing an arrow each second, Moka even went so far as to destroy three Arrow towers, enduring Li Yao’s attacks.
Afterwards, it kept trying roll, lunge and other maneuvers, doing everything to pull away from Li Yao. It was not unintelligent, knowing it could do nothing if it let Li Yao get close.
Moka roared in frustration, trying to keep his distance all the while, but Li Yao stuck to him like glue, and he could not manage to shake him off.
Then, the two watched the scene of Li Yao with his great sword chasing the boss all over the place.
But even after dodging like this, when Li Yao’s sixth thrice charged stored force slash fell, the boss never stood up again.
“This is an illusion, it must be an illusion.” Shadow Trace vigorously rubbed his eyes.
InvincibleTruth, meanwhile, was looking on with adoration, shouting, “Bug, it must be a bug! The official statement says that if players find a bug they can use it freely! Now, God of Prairie Fire has found it. It’s incredible. In just a few minutes, he killed a boss. God, from now on, I’m your diehard fan.”
Shadow Trace watched as Li Yao quickly looted the body, indiscriminately stuffing the loot into his bag without even checking the gear, but he still felt it was unreal.
Afterwards, the colorful world announcement clearly told him that everything was real, not an illusion.
The crowded channels went completely silent.
“Player Prairie Fire completed the world’s first single-player kill against a humanoid boss, taking all the glory.”
“Player Prairie Fire completed the world’s first kill of Mine Puppet, Moka, reclaimed the mine, and was recognized for his outstanding merits by the High Elf Council.
There was silence across all channels as everyone tried to digest the news.
First of all, the Leisure Studio claimed the first kill on Boss Moka, yet there was no news. Now, how did this Prairie Fire end up with the first kill?
Countless people were frantically asking if anyone knew this fellow.
At the entrance of the mine, the group including Leisure Number Three, who had just entered, were stunned as well.
“How is this possible? How could he bring down thousands of the boss’s health points so quickly. It’s impossible!”
Leisure Number Three couldn’t believe it. The high-level players of Leisure Studio behind him also couldn’t believe it. This was too weird. Just a few minutes. It was too horrifying.
“No matter, speed up and catch that bastard.”
A group of people rushed in like the wind.
After looting the body, Li Yao ran to the side of a ballista. His hands were a blurry flurry of motion, and within tens of seconds a complete ballista was reduced to parts.
Li Yao quickly tossed the parts into his bag, and then began using his hearthstone.
“Great God, I’m going to put the video on the official website, do you have any objections?” Shadow Trace quickly asked.
“You deal with it as you please. It doesn’t bother me,” Li Yao responded nonchalantly. There was no point worrying about videos now that so many people knew he had killed the boss. He also added, “You guys also hurry back to the city, the people from the Leisure Studio are about to respawn.”
Li Yao needed to return city as soon as possible in case he was surrounded in this confined space. It would be very inconvenient. Although they had dropped back to level one, their gear was still on them. Facing more than 20 elites, Li Yao couldn’t afford to be complacent, not to mention he was carrying the boss’ huge fortune, Li Yao was not going to take the risk of playing with them.
“Damn bastard, if you dare, don’t leave!” Leisure Number Three stood up straight, as soon as his gaze swept over he saw Li Yao hearthing back. He bellowed, throwing his weapon at Li Yao, trying to disrupt his hearth.
“Buddy, I’m so touched that you’re in such a hurry to bid me farewell. Good brother, we’ll meet again next time.”
Li Yao kept waving to him, his smile still unfading, and his faint figure disappeared inside the mine.
Ding dang dang…
His weapon, thrown towards Li Yao, passed through Li Yao’s fading image and hit the edge of the mine hall, creating a harsh noise.
Ah puff…
Watching the failed attempt to disrupt the hearth, watching Li Yao escape while he could do nothing, and listening to Li Yao’s words, Leisure Number Three’s eyes went dark, and he was forcefully disconnected by the system again….
