Chapter 331: Chapter 331: Blue Moon Mark
“You think that you can provoke me and make me lose my cool, Tianzhen.” The sorrowful voice of Song Yiyi still echoed uncertainly, making it hard to pinpoint her location.
Li Yao slowly drew his bow, and said lightly: “I’m just stating a fact. Regardless of whether you’re calm or angry, it makes no difference to me as long as I’m prepared.”
“Well, then I guess I’ll continue the fight.” Song Yiyi might be low-key and not fond of showing off, but it didn’t mean she lacked pride. Ever since she started playing this game, she hadn’t met an opponent who could pose a threat to her. Even though Li Yao was a formidable healer, she was also sparked with a competitive spirit.
“To be honest, it always hurts someone.” Li Yao released his fingers, letting the steel arrow shoot toward a distant tree: “Also, all this talk is just to pin down your location. Now, you’ve exposed yourself.”
“Ha ha, you’re bluffing, I’m not…”
When Song Yiyi saw Li Yao shooting at the big tree, she no longer paid attention to the steel arrow, instead she tried to taunt Li Yao. But suddenly, a flash of light caught her eye.
Boom…
The bouncing arrow hit the tree but instead of piercing it, it bounced off towards another location, directly hitting the still invisible Song Yiyi in the neck.
A look of realization flashed in Song Yiyi’s eyes, but it was too late. Li Yao’s attack was not something that soft skin like hers could withstand. Her health immediately dropped to zero.
“As I said, you missed your best chance to kill me.” Instead of going to loot the body, Li Yao pointed his bow at her and said: “Stop pretending. The Near-Death Turnaround should have taken effect by now. I won’t foolishly approach you and wait to be killed.”
Full of confusion, Song Yiyi said: “How do you know about my ability? And since you knew, why didn’t you kill me?”
Her ability caused her life to drop to zero but avoided the actual death, falling into a state of fake death. However, if she was attacked in that state, it would result in immediate death.
Li Yao put away his long bow and said, “You and I are both from the Dark Camp. Right now we’re in the territory of the Light Faction, so naturally, we should help each other. Constantly fighting causes damage and strains relations, don’t you think?”
Sitting on the ground, eating and drinking, Song Yiyi glanced at him and said indifferently, “I’m not some naive little girl who doesn’t understand anything. Just tell me the truth.”
Li Yao cleared his throat and then said, “Alright, I think you’re pretty strong and have a promising future. I don’t want to make an enemy out of someone like you for the guild.”
“Didn’t you say I was just a nagging pest? What does it matter if there’s one more of me?” Song Yiyi still held a grudge about what Li Yao had said earlier.
“Yeah, you are indeed not my match. But most of the people in my guild wouldn’t be able to compete with you either. Your intrusion into the temple was clearly for a certain important something. If my guess is right, your death would possibly cause a high chance of it dropping. However, that something is practically useless to me, but all-important to you. If your mission was to fail, you would certainly bear a grudge, and I wouldn’t want you to cause trouble to my guild members. Therefore, I decide to spare you,” Li Yao explained.
“That sounds very reasonable, but you are just scared,” Song Yiyi chuckled.
“No, actually, you’re the scared one. Otherwise, you would already have launched an attack using your Shadow Martial God,” Li Yao threw his short spear like lightning, dislodging a slender shadow with the spear: “Of course, if you don’t care about your mission, I could also send you on your way. I don’t like complications, but it doesn’t mean I’m afraid of trouble.”
“Alright, you win,” Song Yiyi put away her Shadow Martial God. She had no choice but to admit defeat in this battle, especially considering it was her professional mission, with a reward she couldn’t refuse.
Her mentor had clearly informed her, she could still accept the mission if she failed this time, but the rewards, be it skills or other things, could never be compared to completing it on the first try.
Her mission target was already within her grasp; victory was in sight. If she were to fail because of this unexpected incident, there would be nowhere to cry.
“Tsk, tsk, now that’s a sensible lass,” Li Yao sheathed his weapon completely.
“Don’t gloat too much. Sooner or later, I’m going to get even for today.”
Li Yao shrugged and said, “You can try working hard for a few years. Good luck.”
“I have never seen someone as arrogant as you…”
Song Yiyi stopped speaking. In her view, it was a great loss of face today. The arguments were untenable in the gaming world where power is supreme.
“Well, I’ll help myself to this chest now,” Saying so, Li Yao walked toward the location under the big uncles, activated Magic Spider Silk and quickly reached the tree trunk that held a special chest.
Feeling terrible, Song Yiyi had no choice but to sit and watch. She saw Li Yao release the Mechanical Snake again, obviously not truly letting her off his guard. Without the slightest opportunity, she stayed on guard.
Li Yao slowly opened the chest, these kinds of chests usually only contained one thing.
Blue Moon Insignia
Special Equipment: Back
Moon Shadow Skill Level +1
Blue Moon Curse: reduce your own armor and HP by 10%, increase strength and agility by 10%.
Wolf God’s Kiss: After killing an enemy, bind the enemy’s soul for 1 hour. The Moon Spirit can coil around the enemy and absorb 1% of the enemy’s HP every second, restoring half of the absorbed HP to itself, reducing agility by 30%, 0/15.
Equipment Level: None
Equipment Race: Elves
Li Yao’s eyes lit up in surprise. This was another piece of equipment with attributes similar to Titan Equipment. It was like a tattoo, which required no equipment slot.
The Moon Shadow’s damage reduction was terrifying, although Moon Shadow could only be used in places without sunlight, which was plenty strong in the wild. Li Yao had experienced the power of the Priest of Moon’s Moon Shadow before.
As far as the Blue Moon Curse was concerned, it was extremely profitable. 10% of the armor and HP didn’t mean much to him, but a 10% increase in strength and agility was a considerable boost. Li Yao was pretty satisfied with this effect.
As for the Wolf God’s Kiss, it was a passable health recovery control skill. Whether it could be put to good use depended on the individual. However, Li Yao didn’t think this skill was particularly useful for him at the time. He did not lack control skills for now.
“So, did you get anything good? You won’t share it with me, but you should at least let me see what it is,” Seeing the flash of light in Li Yao’s hand, Song Yiyi couldn’t help but ask.
“Since you know it’s something good, it’s better not to look. It’ll prevent any upset feelings,” Li Yao laughed.
“You think too much. I’ve always been able to let go. I won’t dwell on this issue. Are you a man or not? Just show me,” Song Yiyi said impatiently.
“Suit yourself.” Li Yao went ahead and shared the attributes of the Blue Moon Insignia.
“Such a good piece of the Priest of Moon equipment, ruined by you.” Song Yiyi sighed.
“On the contrary, I believe it can only reach its full potential with me.”
Li Yao fired a Sonar Arrow, ready to take a rest, when he suddenly sensed someone approaching.
“Another one coming to commit suicide. You should leave as well. I wouldn’t want them to mistake you for an accomplice.”
