"146!" "78!" "88!"
It was clean and swift. My Heavy Strike plus a Combo instantly killed a Thief. Murong Shanshan also cooperated with the Mage to take down another Thief.
Thieves who couldn't use stealth were completely like fish on a chopping board. I only then saw the Thief's name: "Myth Under Crotch," truly vulgar. I checked the combat log from earlier: You killed "Miracle Under Crotch"!
Damn it, what a vulgar bunch of people!
Murong Shanshan was about to make her move when another group of people approached, about seven or eight of them.
The leader was a Warrior. Without a word, he immediately used Heavy Strike and Combo to instantly kill our Mage MM. My scalp tingled. Is this what the game is? Killing for fun?
"It's him!?" Murong Shanshan leaned closer to me, her voice trembling. At the same time, our Beastmaster was also dealt with in a flash.
"Kuang Zhan? The top-ranked Kuang Zhan in this city?"
It was a middle-aged man's face, with a faint scar visible. The people behind him were also quite vulgar; I didn't even need to look to know they were with those three Thieves.
"Haha, one is ranked 3rd in this city, and another is 9th. Looks like this business will be quite profitable. Tsk tsk, Murong Shanshan is still as beautiful as ever, isn't she? Do you remember my brother's matter?"
As soon as Kuang Zhan finished speaking, several players on the other side attacked simultaneously. Under the assault of Concussion Arrow and Frost Arrow, our two Beastmasters immediately fell to the ground, instantly killed!
"What should we do?" Murong Shanshan probably hadn't seen a scene like this before, leaning against me, trembling slightly.
I didn't say anything, directly trading a bottle of tomato sauce to her. Then, in the team channel, I said: "Drink this, run behind the BOSS, I'll draw aggro."
Murong Shanshan didn't say anything, immediately used the item and ran back without looking. This girl is clever; if she didn't do that, she'd probably lose another level. This was PK, so dying would mean losing two levels.
I looked at the eight people lined up opposite us. The cooldown for Concussion Arrow shouldn't be over yet, good chance!
I suddenly rushed from the side, continuously unleashing Combo and Heavy Strike!
"MISS!"
Damn it, the Combo was actually dodged by their Archer!
"324!"
So gratifying! A critical hit!
The Heavy Strike landed a critical hit, and the Archer named "God, Grant Me a Woman!" was instantly killed!
"Damn it, kill him!" Kuang Zhan saw that with so many people present, his Archer was still instantly killed, and immediately gave the order, furious.
I didn't linger, directly dragging my sword and sprinting along the edge of the level 19 wild monsters. The group chasing me behind could still see my shadow at first, but after a while, they could only see monsters.
Screams rose and fell. They didn't have my 60 defense. The 8 people quickly all fell to the level 19 monster horde. On the other hand, thanks to the tomato sauce, I only used up half of my HP before shaking off all the monsters. When I stood in front of Kuang Zhan, his expression was very interesting.
"Damn it, we'll see about this!"
To my surprise, Kuang Zhan immediately crushed a city return scroll. For a moment, I was a bit confused. Is this the number one in the city?
"Should we continue the quest?" Murong Shanshan came out from behind, still a bit unwilling as she looked at the spot where Kuang Zhan had returned to the city.
The Puppet BOSS still had nearly 1/10 of its health. I immediately rushed forward, saying: "Hurry, don't let it regenerate health!"
Without a Priest, the pressure on both Murong Shanshan and me greatly increased. Fortunately, Murong Shanshan was well-prepared, trading me two medium health potions while fighting. I was both relieved and lamented that this girl must be a spendthrift; these medium health potions, costing 1 gold coin each, are rarely affordable by anyone now... "Qing Cai, help, I can't hold on!" Murong Shanshan was already calling for help.
"Damn it, don't you have health potions?"
"I traded them all to you..."
"You're so good to me..."
"Cut it out! I just clicked the wrong thing..."
After using two health potions, the level 21 BOSS finally fell under our relentless assault.
Murong Shanshan rummaged through the monster's corpse and found a blue crystal, happily saying: "Quest complete! This crystal can be exchanged for a level 20 blue equipment."
I was very puzzled: "Logically speaking, a level 21 BOSS should drop some equipment, shouldn't it? How can there be nothing?"
"It's probably because it's a quest monster, Qing Cai, thank you..."
"Don't mention it, I charge for my services."
"I'm thanking you for helping me kill those people earlier."
"It wasn't me, the monsters killed them."
Murong Shanshan finally lost her temper, gritting her teeth and saying: "Stop with the nonsense, just thank you, that's all!"
I hadn't expected even a thank you to be so reluctant, so I had to accept it, then said very seriously: "Transfer that 700 yuan to the bank card I gave you last time. Be sure to remember, and send me a text message once it's done."
Murong Shanshan chuckled softly, saying: "Got it, Hero Qing Cai! Now, should we return to the city or what?"
"Of course, we should make a quick getaway! Are we going to wait here for Kuang Zhan to bring people back to kill us? Oh, right, what exactly is your feud with him? Why did he bring people from so far away to disrupt our quest, and how did he know we were doing a quest here?"
Murong Shanshan froze, blinking at me without speaking.
"Is it very private? Then never mind."
"I'm sorry, let's go back to the city first. After we get back, do you want to level up with me?" Murong Shanshan asked with a smile.
"No, I prefer to level up by myself."
"Hmph, hmph, men fight to level up with a beauty like me, but you're strange. Honestly, are you BL?"
"Narcissist!" I crushed the city return scroll.
"Bastard, how rude!" Murong Shanshan gritted her teeth and returned to the city... After slightly repairing my equipment, I saw that my level was quickly approaching 17. My world ranking was over 3000, China ranking over 2000, and in this city, I was directly ranked second. It was probably because the level 21 BOSS I just fought gave a lot of experience, pushing Little Ant on the Leaf to third place.
I checked the brief map. My next quest, "Rescue Princess Misha," was in the Plague Graveyard in the west of the city. It wouldn't be bad to level up and familiarize myself with the map at the same time.
"Lin Fan, what were you doing just now?" A text message from Lu Xuehan.
I immediately replied: "I helped Murong Shanshan, the one who bought my sword last time, with a quest. We encountered some people who maliciously PKed us, so it just took a bit of time."
Lu Xuehan didn't reply to the text message, but Xu Lin quickly asked me: "Xiao Lin, did you charge a service fee?"
"Of course I did, 700 big ones, not bad, right."
"Hehe, not bad, not bad~!"
