Chapter 174: Hatred for the Death of the Wife

“Light Sphere Spell!”

“Boom!”

[–59]

Outside of Blade Frost Canyon, a female player with curvy buttocks, who was dressed in white, was standing by the river and waving the staff in her hand, killing the Level 20 crocodile monsters that approached her.

“Whew, finally they’re all dead…” The female player in white was having the jitters as she looked at the corpse of the crocodile mob. She hesitated for a long time and did not bend over to loot the corpse.

“Forget it.”

She gave up looting the corpse and shifted her feet, looking for the next target.

She was only at Level 15 and was a Light Priest. Although she would not easily die when soloing Level 20 monsterlings, her pace was eminently slow.

“Sister Nine, bad news, Sister Nine!”

Just then, a girl dressed like a doll in a pink dress ran over with shock written all over face. Her name was not hidden, and it was a match with the color of her clothes. She was called Pink Girl.

“What’s the matter, Pink?” Sister Nine was startled.

“Look at Enemy List!” Pink Girl nervously looked around.

Sister Nine hesitatingly opened the Enemy List, and her complexion instantly changed with just a glance at it.

“Dark Wing’s here!” Sister Nine and Pink Girl shrieked in unison.

Pink Girl and Sister Windcloud Nine were players from the Western Continent, and they had only one enemy, which was Dark Wing of the Eastern Continent.

The first time at the Church of Light where three alt account Priests were killed by Li Yi, the two of them were among them.

Shortly after, outside of Soaring Cloud City, Li Yi once again killed the three of them, and it was three times straight.

The System ruled that when a person was killed more than three times in a row by someone from a different camp, the party who was killed would be able to see the icon of the enemy in the Enemy List.

In order to protect the privacy of players, the System did not display the enemy’s name but used a skull icon instead. As the hatred of both parties increased, the color of the skull icon would gradually deepen till the extreme, indicating deep-seated hatred.

Although the System did not reveal the enemy’s name, you could use the method, Remark, to name each of the enemies. Sister Windcloud Nine and Pink Girl only had one enemy, which was Dark Wing, so when they saw the name marked as Dark Wing lit up and that his location was at Blade Frost Canyon, they were immediately frightened.

Only in your own continent could you see the approximate location of your enemies from another continent. If you went to other continents to seek revenge, you would not be able to get the enemy’s current location from the Enemy List.

“Sister Nine, let’s… let’s go back.”

“My… My, my, my Return City Stone’s still cooling down. Can’t, can’t go back.” Sister Windcloud Nine was trembling from fear. It was not easy for the two of them to level up as they had no one to carry them. Initially, they were a three-person team, but after one of the girls was killed by Li Yi three or four times, out of rage, she decided to not play the game anymore…

“Then, let’s go offline.” Pink Girl came up with a good idea.

“Fantastic!” Sister Windcloud Nine was delighted and immediately chose to go offline.

Just as the two girls sat on the ground and watched the 20-second offline channeling bar decreased, a silly little crocodile crawled over and opened its mouth to bite Sister Windcloud Nine, causing her to enter into Battle Mode, and the offline channeling bar was broken off.

“Pink… I…”

Sister Windcloud Nine panicked, and she waved her staff to strike the little crocodile. In the moment of desperation, she even forgot to use Light Sphere Spell.

Pink Girl quickly canceled her offline channeling bar, wielded her staff, and fought the little crocodile together.

Just when the two girls teamed up to kill off the little crocodile, Li Yi, who was carrying his bow and arrows on his back and was riding on Crimson Tiger King, appeared smiling in front of them.

In their panic, the girls chanted the Light Sphere Spell and attacked Li Yi.

[–10]

[–9]

The pitiful damage value floated from the top of Li Yi’s head, and the power was so insignificant that even the state of the mount was not affected.

Li Yi did not fight back. Violent Bear King gave an angry roar and rushed up with Berserk Charge, killing Pink Girl at once. It then lifted its claw, and Sister Windcloud Nine was lying on the ground next.

2 points of Honor Value were obtained once more.

“Was it necessary? You’re only what level now, and you dare to PK like the others?”

Li Yi shook his head helplessly, rode on Crimson Tiger King, and headed into Blade Frost Canyon.

Sister Windcloud Nine and Pink Girl laid on the ground for a long time…

…

Blade Frost Canyon was home to all kinds of Ice Elemental Monsters. There were various kinds from Inferior Ice Elves to Superior Ice Elves, and they were all grouped in three or five, wandering in this Frost World.

The Ice Elves’ ATK was moderate, but all their attacks had additional negative statuses such as Slow and Freeze. If one was out of luck and continuously bore the negative statuses, the situation would be dangerous.

To counteract this, Li Yi has used Mislead on Violent Bear King then activated Pseudocide after firing off one arrow to aggro the Ice Elves gradually. Over time, he began to loosen up and had Violent Bear King go up and resist while he fired non-stop from the back. The speed of killing monsters was accelerating fast.

The Ice Elves would drop two kinds of rare material, Ice Core and Frost Fragment, of which the Ice Core was the easiest to be obtained. One could loot one out of about a dozen elves. Frost Fragment, on the other hand, was difficult to get. Li Yi had killed more than 60 Ice Elves and still did not see any.

The more advanced the Ice Elves’ level was, the easier it was to obtain Frost Fragment. When Li Yi had acquired enough Ice Cores, he immediately switched his target to attacking only Intermediate-level and Advanced-level Ice Elves.

Half an hour passed. After Li Yi had put down innumerable Intermediate-level and Advanced-level Ice Elves, there finally was a ringing sound. He had managed to loot a piece of Frost Fragment.

Li Yi let out a long sigh of relief. Both his hands flashed red, creating Novice-Level Frost Arrows on the spot.

Frost Fragment was extremely unique and was a non-storable material. If it was not used, it would only last up to 3 hours in the Backpack, and then it would dissipate and disappear automatically.

[Congratulations! You’ve created 20 Novice-level Frost Arrows.]

A bundle of 20 Novice-level Frost Arrows was created by Li Yi.

[Novice-level Frost Arrow: 10–30 damage. Special effect: There’s a 5% chance to cause the target to enter Slow Mode (reduces 50% SPD and 50% skill casting speed. Lasts for 10 seconds).]

Do not look down on this 5% probability. In fact, in the constant firing of arrows, the probability of the Novice-level Frost Arrows triggering Slow was rather horrific. Once the Slow effect was triggered, it would be fatal.

Flame Arrow was the best arrow for Archers to deal DPS, whereas Frost Arrow was the most powerful arrow for crowd control!

The Frost Fragment was used up, and only 20 arrows were created. This was far from the goal Li Yi had in mind.

Li Yi directed Violent Bear King to continue to farm monsters.

There was a great use in acquiring plenty of Ice Core because there was a Level 40 10-man instance dungeon in Blade Frost Canyon whereby if you wanted to enter the dungeon, you would need to exhaust a large amount of Ice Core.

Elite-level Ice Elves littered the instance dungeon, and the drop rate of these two materials in there was much higher than in Blade Frost Canyon.

“Don’t snatch monsters. Those who farmed past their boundary be aware and retreat!”

Just when Li Yi was immersing himself in farming monsters, a message was sent through the Region Channel.

When players from the two continents wanted to communicate, besides face-to-face conversation, both parties could only exchange information through the World Channel and Region Channel. All the remaining channels were not usable.

Li Yi was not alone in Frost Blade Canyon. In fact, there were many Western Continent players who were frantically farming for Ice Core.

It was a common agreement that each one would not cross their boundary and would farm monsters only in their small area, which was not the same as what Li Yi was doing, specifically picking on the Intermediate and Advanced-level Ice Elves.

Li Yi did not respond but changed his direction and went to the area where there were many monsters but few people to continue farming monsters.

Li Yi was not afraid of conflicts. What he was concerned of was that the Western Continent players would besiege him. Although he could deal with one or two, if there were tens of thousands of them, that would be troublesome.

“Sister Nine, Pink, look at the Enemy List! Is that scum still at Blade Frost Canyon?”

At the entrance to Blade Frost Canyon, Brother Windcloud Nine, who was shining gold, glowered as he looked into the valley.

“Still there!” Sister Windcloud Nine and Pink Girl nodded in unison.

Brother Windcloud Nine summoned a Cyclone Leopard, got on it, and charged into Blade Frost Canyon.

“Hubby, be careful…” Sister Windcloud Nine shouted worriedly.

Sister Windcloud Nine was Brother Windcloud Nine’s wife, and Li Yi had so happened to kill his wife five times. How could he not be pissed?

“If I don’t kill this scum, I’ll never be a human!”

Brother Windcloud Nine urged his Cyclone Leopard on and began to search in Blade Frost Canyon.

The last surprise attack on the Eastern Continent had failed, and he was deceitfully jointly killed by Li Yi and Scumbag Wang. This made Brother Windcloud Nine extremely annoyed, constantly seeking an opportunity to take revenge. Now that he received a distress message from his wife, he immediately ran out of the dungeon and could not be bothered about anything else but to take out Li Yi.

After the last surprise attack, Brother Windcloud Nine had summed up that experience, and the conclusion was that his equipment was not sufficiently reinforced. Hence, he then madly spent tens of millions of Gold Coins on equipment, finally coming up with a reinforced +14 gold-colored equipment.

Although the cost was exceedingly great, his strength had undoubtedly increased by a huge lot compared with the last time.

‘Just a piece of crap. I’ll give you no chance of returning!’

The SPD of Brother Windcloud Nine’s Cyclone Leopard was much faster than the Crimson Tiger King, reaching 120%. He had spent a lot of money and bought it over from a lucky player. The drop rate of Cyclone Leopard was not higher the Crimson Tiger King, and the most valuable aspect was that the leopard would passively increase the owner’s Dodging ability by 3%.

Brother Windcloud Nine’s equipment was different from ordinary people’s. He was over the limits with Dodge and Parry. As for the ability to resist damage, he did not care much about it.

40% Dodge, 30% Parry, and Null Damage up to 55%; this was Brother Windcloud Nine’s state at this time.

“Brother Nine, how come you’re here?”

A few of the Western Continent players who encountered Brother Windcloud Nine on the road would come up to him curiously and greet him.

“Looking for an Eastern Continent scum. Oh right, if you see a scum archer from the Eastern Continent, inform me immediately, and there’ll be a great reward.”

“Hey, c’mon. Whether there’s a reward or not, with your word, we bros will do nothing else but help you find him.”

“Those who are farming for cores in Blade Frost Canyon, please stop for a while. Brother Windcloud Nine has spoken. There’s a scum archer from the Eastern Continent lurking here. Just report his coordinates, and there’ll be a great reward from Brother Nine!”

The players who were farming monsters in Blade Frost Canyon were all stirred up. Everyone knew that Brother Windcloud Nine was forthright and loyal. He was truly a rich man. All of them split up and began searching in Blade Frost Canyon.

“Brother Nine, I spotted that Archer with a black HP Bar and the word, Eastern Continent, above his head. His coordinates are 365874, 458771!”

“Alright, thanks! I’m coming over now!”

Brother Windcloud Nine was overjoyed. He looked at the coordinates and rushed over as quickly as possible.

When he arrived at the location, sure enough, he saw Li Yi stooping down, farming monsters.

Brother Windcloud Nine activated Charge and thrust forward.

“Whoosh…”

He rammed into Li Yi spot on, triggering Dizzy right away.

“Die, you shitty scum!”
