Chapter 33: Chapter 32 – Better to Make up for Losses_l
Translator: 549690339
In the vast wilderness, several players riding Seat Wolves began a tactical retreat. They only allowed themselves to breathe a sigh of relief when they had gone a considerable distance away.
Scared to death.
But having taken such a huge risk and retreated halfway, they felt somewhat unwilling.
“Boss, are we just gonna leave like this? Didn’t you say we ordinary players must fight?”
“That’s right, we should fight, but only when there is a chance to win,”
In the real world, the team leader among the players lit a cigarette. Surrounded by smoke, he exhaled a ring of smoke and shook his head, “With the situation just now, were we supposed to gamble with our lives?”
“Indeed, we must fight when necessary, and withdraw when necessary. Players who only know how to fight won’t last long.”
He paused, “Besides, you all know what a gargoyle is. It’s a rare, one-star powerful troop, but it was defeated by one single powerful stroke.”
“This could only explain two things. First, there are powerful monsters roaming ahead. If we had moved even a little bit further, we would have ended up like the gargoyle, hacked to pieces.”
“Second, the powerful player who killed the Gargoyle could be a soldier from some big boss. That Mage Tower must belong to him. We don’t dare to touch it let alone it’s none of our business. Moreover, if my guess is right, that boss had noticed us a long time ago and gave us a small warning by causing an explosion. That’s why I asked everyone to leave immediately. I feared we might be misunderstood by the boss, or worse, we might lose our lives if we took another step.”
“Don’t forget, the Eternal World is not Lanxing, and there are no rules in the wilderness.”
So that’s what it is!
The other players were enlightened, cold sweat trickling down their foreheads. They were scared yet relieved.
They never expected that they had almost walked into the jaws of death.
Thank goodness, thank goodness that the boss was decisive.
Our boss is worth relying on.
“Players? Old players?”
In the sky, a seemingly insignificant Battle Falcon’s pupils focused on a group of conspicuous players in the distance.
There were two falcons. One was observing the battlefield, live streaming the situation at all times.
The other was hovering around the outer forest, vigilant on all sides. Mu Yuan was worried that a powerful monster might ambush them during the battle.
Unexpectedly, he didn’t spot a powerful monster but rather some troublesome old players.
You should know that even the weakest old players have been in the game for half a year. Even if they progress slowly, their main troop level wouldn’t be too low.
At the very least, they should be at the ‘High Section of Zero-order’.
If they have already entered the professional level, even the Dead Bone might not be a match for them.
Moreover, other players may not have the same lofty moral integrity as him. In an unruly place like the wilderness, conflicts between players, monster snatching, or even stealth killings could all possibly occur.
The problem was significant and quite troublesome!
Mu Yuan observed through shared vision, thinking rapidly about how to act.
Before he could even complete a cycle of thoughts, these old players, with a speed faster than that at their arrival, left directly.
Mu Yuan:”???”
He didn’t realize yet, that it was the ‘shock of the gargoyle’, which had intimidated the old players from a distance. They hadn’t discovered that the gargoyle was just a bluff, just like how he and the Dead Bone had initially been intimidated by the gargoyle.
Mu Yuan just let the Battle Falcon keep an eye on these old players, just in case.
At the broken tower, the battlefield.
At the beginning of battle, General Dead Bone instantly killed three gargoyles with his invincible power. The gargoyles started to awaken, and ‘Bone Two’ charged forward wildly, charging up and fiercely throwing the Bone Spear at a Gargoyle.
It hit!
However, ‘Bone Two’s’ throw was a little rushed, and the use of the skill was rough. Even with the element of surprise, it was far from being able to kill a gargoyle in a single stroke.
It merely planted the Bone Spear firmly in the gargoyle’s body.
The remaining five gargoyles fully awakened. They opened their wings and flew, causing a gust of whistling wind. Shadows flickered in the dense forest.
‘Bone Two’ missed with its next two Bone Spears, fired in succession.
The bad news: it missed again.
The good news: it successfully got the attention of the gargoyles.
Three gargoyles launched themselves at it from different directions. Although ‘Bone Two’ could not handle such a complex situation, it didn’t know what retreating was. It decided to charge forward.
The slight swing of the giant sword against the gargoyle scraped sparks, leaving a shallow mark.
‘Bone Two’ pressed both hands together, the blade emanated the thread of a black glow, and it fiercely cut a ferocious gap on the gargoyle, debris flying.
Yet at the same time, the gargoyle’s claws gleamed with a cold, ghostly light.
They swooped over, shredding ‘Bone Two’s’ warrior armor as if tearing through cardboard.
Metal fragments scattered about, flinging broken rib bones. Yet, even with several holes in its body and even when faced with a multiple of enemies, ‘Bone Two’ remained fearless in the world.
Heya!
At the same time, General Dead Bone was leading the other Skeleton Soldiers, executing a tactic of righteous mob attack.
Normally, it would be challenging for Skeleton Soldiers to inflict severe damage on Gargoyles with exceptional defensive capabilities. However, the tactic of Cleave compensated for this weakness.
Normally, it would be challenging for Skeleton Soldiers to seize the opportunity of Cleave when faced with Gargoyles that could fly back and forth like the wind. However, General Dead Bone’s command compensated for this weakness.
In the blink of an eye, two Gargoyles were brutally hacked into rubble during a dive.
General Dead Bone also, at the same time, took out a specially-made Bone Spear, seizing the opportune moment for a solid surprise attack.
Charge… Blast!
A Gargoyle, who had just used its Tear skill and had not yet reached, shattered into pieces right in front of ‘Bone Two’.
‘Bone Two’: Am I that strong?
Shortly after, General Dead Bone seized another opportunity, he chopped off the Gargoyle’s wings with a sword and dashed with a punch. It, who transformed the Cleave skill into carnal skill, shattered the Gargoyle’s hard head with one punch.
Only after a few blinks, there was only one Gargoyle left out of eight.
It seemed to have been scared, hovering high in the sky, not daring to come down.
General Dead Bone fixated his gaze on this figure.
This Gargoyle’s power was too strong, it absolutely cannot be left alone, it cannot linger for long!
However, it cannot fly, not being able to fly was its shortcoming. The hit rate for the Bone Spear against a Gargoyle on full alert was not high enough.
Indeed, it was still not solid enough.
In that case…
General Dead Bone turned his gaze to Big Slime No. 2. It has been a Slime Feeder for a period, and was well aware of Big Slime’s capabilities.
Under Mu Yuan’s dumbfounded expression, General Dead Bone stepped on Big Slime, using the force of its Leap ‘attack’ to catapult upwards into the semi-empty skies of two to three ten meters, seizing the gap before the Gargoyle could fly far. It discharged two Bone Spears to block the area, then took a several meters long black sword radiance, slashing the Gargoyle into two with a single stroke.
Bang !!
General Dead Bone, clad in armor, fell from mid-air, causing many cracks to appear in the ground.
Behind him, the fragmented Gargoyle’s corpse also fell with a bang, kicking up dust and gravel.
General Dead Bone pulled his Battle Boots out from the ground, looked at the armor on his body that already had some cracks, and still sighed:
“Indeed, I’m still not solid enough.”
The battle ended in just over ten seconds, which left Mu Yuan feeling immensely stirred. He wished he could also enter the world personally and exchange a few moves with the Gargoyles.
Oh, it seems that he only has the power of one bone? Little Skeleton’s bone.
Upon second thought, he decides not to.
The dust fog filled the air, countless trees collapsed, broken stones and split branches flew everywhere. The area in front of the entire broken tower had become unbearably messy.
But General Dead Bone deliberately controlled the battle area, and it did not affect this ancient tower, which may have already become a dangerous building.
This battle was no small matter. It seems that the Gargoyle area had its own deterrence. There were no monsters in the surrounding that were attracted. By the time Mu Yuan came forward, he could only see the fragmented Gargoyles’ corpses, and…
Also, ‘Bone Two’ whose body was riddled with holes, even its heart cavity had been emptied.
Mu Yuan:”…”
The sight was undeniably tragic. However, looking at ‘Bone Two’, who was happily playing with itself, his sorrow diminished before it could well up.
Let it be, as long as you’re happy.
Skeletons, it doesn’t matter.
If ‘Bone Two’ had focused on dodging, it wouldn’t have gotten so severely injured within such a short time. However, it chose to fight, even if that meant taking a hit, just to slash the Gargoyles a few times.
Looking at ‘Bone Two’, whose heart cavity had been emptied, General Dead Bone thought that it would require a considerable amount of time for it to recover from such injuries. Hence, it naturally thought of the Undead Resurrection skill that it mastered.
As long as ‘Bone Two’ was killed off and resurrected, its injuries would naturally be gone.
General Dead Bone was 99.99% sure of this operation, but after careful consideration, it still shook its head. ‘Bone Two’ was a brother in arms. It decided to wait and test it on a few captured Undead creatures from the outside world before performing the operation on ‘Bone Two’.
Only then, it would be solid..
