Chapter 788: Going Crazy

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

After the announcement of the Fluttering Snow Continent’s first kills, the party immediately fell deathly silent. All the members looked at Li Yi like weeds left out in the sun for too long, heads bent and dangling.

They were not even sure if they could defeat the gatekeeper boss here, but now their enemies had instead accomplished something so shockingly outstanding. It was only natural that their moods were affected.

“What’s up with y’all? Why the dejected faces? We haven’t lost yet, come here!”

Li Yi called his party members over and began to organize a strategy.

No one could block Bahanuq’s attacks, and it was unbelievably fast too, so fighting it was not going to be an easy task.

Forget right now, even in the past life, only a very select few parties managed to challenge and then defeat Bahanuq.

Three minutes later, Li Yi finished organizing their battle plan. Sister Windcloud Nine was the first to walk toward the pedestal timidly, hugging her staff.

“Clang clang clang!”

The Tuhr Sacred Sword appeared and danced through the air above Sister Windcloud Nine’s head majestically.

“Territory—God’s Protection!” Nirvana Inaction activated his strongest Territory and enveloped Sister Windcloud Nine in a gentle holy glow.

Anyone protected by God’s Protection would be immune to all damage for five minutes.

Of course, such a move was only useful when used on players like Sister Windcloud Nine who had her Tuhr Sacred Sword. If it was used on any other player, its effects would be greatly diminished.

“Swish! Swish! Swish!”

The Sword of Kannon, Bahanuq leaped off the high pedestal on horseback, and the Tuhr Sacred Sword immediately flew up to greet him with its signature move, the 3-Combo Blade Aura.

[−256777]

[−334567]

[−156778]

Three damage figures appeared above Banahuq’s head even as it rushed toward Sister Windcloud Nine, stabbing her with its spear.

“Pfft!”

Being enveloped in God’s Protection meant that Sister Windcloud Nine could not move. She could only stand by and watch as Bahanuq’s greatsword pierced through her chest.

[−0]

God’s Protection took effect. Although Bahanq managed to stab Sister Windcloud Nine, it could not deal any damage to her.

For the next five minutes, Sister Windcloud Nine would be an unkillable cockroach.

“Swish! Swish! Swish!”

The Tuhr Sacred Sword used its 3-Combo Blade Aura again, pulling Bahanuq’s aggro firmly.

The Tuhr Sacred Sword could pull aggro like nobody’s business, and it was even better at it than the main tanks were. This was also why Sister Windcloud Nine died so often; it was just too good at pulling aggro, and the aggro it pulled would all be transferred to its owner. It would stay unscathed, sure, but could the same be said of its owner?

“Attack!”

Seeing how firmly she had pulled Bahanuq’s aggro, Li Yi immediately gave the order.

“This secret weapon is amazing.”

“Haha, that’s bad*ss!”

“Good going, Sister Nine.”

The party members were in high spirits as they launched their attacks.

The compliments from her party members turned Sister Windcloud Nine’s adorable face completely red, but she felt secretly pleased and flattered. She even posted a peace sign sticker in the Party Channel.

Right now, there were no such things like main tanks or healers. Every member of the party had become a damage-dealing DPS.

With Sister Windcloud Nine tanking the boss’ attacks, they would take any damage they could get. That was why they must not waste a single second of the five minutes they had.

Li Yi shot two rounds of Shooting Star Arrow Hail, and Qian’er used her Divine Flames’ Descent too. Every other member was also using their strongest attacks, beating Bahanuq up as though it were a punching bag.

Bahanuq rapidly lost health, and within those mere five minutes, it had lost more than five hundred million HP. That was more than half of all its health.

The God’s Protection Skill could not be used consecutively, and it could not work on the same player in quick succession. Sister Windcloud Nine, for example, was now in 自律 Mode, and she would not be able to enjoy the buffs of God’s Protection or any similar skin for half an hour.

“Pfft!”

Bahanuq swung its two-handed greatsword and Sister Windcloud Nine collapsed in glory, having complete her mission.

“Whoosh—”

“Megashield!”

Unending Unmatched strode toward Bahanuq boldly, armed with his Shieldsword and his activated skill.

Sister Windcloud Nine was down, so it was time for the main tanks to shine.

Bahanuq used Heavy Slash just once and instantly killed Unending Unmatched with just one blow, even though the latter was at full health.

Bahanuq was also known as the Sword of Kannon, so its ATK was several times higher than that of Babarossa, the Shield of Kannon.

Brother Windcloud Nine was the next to run up, but he ended up just as Unending Unmatched had. With just a light swing of its sword, Bahanuq took him down.

“You regicides shall all go to hell!”

Bahanuq raised the two-handed greatsword high above its head and spun it rapidly, charging toward the party on horseback...

One minute later, the party was wiped out...

“F*ck, this b*stard’s too hard to fight!”

“It’s not hard, it’s downright impossible! Even a main tank with one million HP can’t tank it, so who can?”

“If the boss can kill even Brother Nine with one hit, I can’t imagine any main tank can tank it.”

“We can’t beat this, so we might as well disband. This is just so godd*mn frustrating.”

“I don’t wanna fight anymore either, aaaaaargh this is so annoying...”

The party members were sprawled all over the floor, this new round of failure having taken their morale to its lowest point yet.

Li Yi was the only one who remained completely unfazed as he gave the same order, “Corpse run, and let’s continue!”

Although many were dissatisfied with this, the commander’s orders were absolute in a dungeon. They had to obey if they still intended to join this party in the future.

Running back from the dungeon entrance took at least more than two hours, so the party only had time for at most one more attempt at Bahanuq.

“This is our last chance, let’s see it to the end...”

“Sigh, we might as well do it. We’ve been wiping out for a month anyway, so this one time won’t make a difference.”

With that sort of mentality, the party members released their souls and corpse-ran in unison.

Three hours later, the members gathered together and dejectedly looked at Bahanuq on his pedestal. They could not get themselves fired up for this at all.

No one believed that the next attempt would work. How could they possibly fight such an invincible boss?

Were they masochists?

“We’ll keep to the same strategy as before. Sister Nine will be the dummy while the rest of us concentrate fire on it. When Sister Nine dies, however, I want the main tanks to run around the pedestal rather than approach the boss. Just avoid its attacks as much as you can.”

Li Yi was explaining his strategy, but only a very few members were actually listening.

It did not matter if they listened or not, did it?

As Li Yi was telling them his plan, Unending Unmatched tried to say something several times, but in the end, he held back and did not say anything.

What he wanted to say was, “Bahanuq moves so quickly, so we won’t be able to dodge its attacks even if we do run around the pedestal.”

“Everyone got it?”

“Yeah...”

“Uh-huh...?”

“Huh?”

“Okay...”

The members of the party just hummed and hawed. It was obvious that their hearts were not in it.

Li Yi glanced at the time and said, “We can rest for a little longer this time, we’ll wait until all the skills have finished cooling down. Let’s set the start time at half an hour before the dungeon resets.

“So we’re not fighting now?”

“Nope!”

Li Yi’s words were absolute, so Flower Underpants fell silent after asking just once. Just like the other party members, he was thinking that they only had one more shot at this anyway, so it did not really matter when they started.

The party members sat together in twos and threes, taking a break right there and then.

It was utterly silent inside the dungeon, but the World Channel was still a flurry of activity.

Players had to pay to post a message to the World Channel, and the fee increased exponentially the more one tried to spam the channel. Posting once only cost one measly Gold Coin, but posting a hundred times added up to a considerable sum.

Tyrant Sword King the Fifth’s first kill of the Fourth and Fifth Demon Gods had created a scene of chaos in the World Channel. Players who opposed him swore at him viciously, while Tyrant Sword King the Fifth’s own supporters flamed them right back.

“Gongsun Chuqian, this is King Fifth. Marry me!”

“Gongsun Chuqian, this is King Fifth. Marry me!”

“Gongsun Chuqian, this is King Fifth. Marry me!”

While Li Yi and the others were resting, Tyrant Sword King the Fifth began to spam the World Channel incessantly.

Tyrant Sword King the Fifth had paid for red-lettered posts too, and those cost an arm and a leg. A single message cost 200,000 Gold Coins.

“This...”

“F*ck me...”

“What’s happening?”

Li Yi’s party members were once more stunned.

Everyone here knew that Qian’er was Li Yi’s woman...

Qian’er’s expression changed, and even her dainty hand began to tremble around her staff.

She was shaking out of anger!

How dare Tyrant Sword King the Fifth try something like this! Even Li Yi could not help himself, posting a long string of “F*ck off f*ck off f*ck off!” in bright red letters all over the World Channel.

“Qian’er, marry me!” Tyrant Sword King the Fifth was still howling.

“Go marry your dad! There’s no way Qian’er will marry you, b*stard!”

Li Yi was still thinking of a way to respond to Tyrant Sword King the Fifth’s challenge when Sister Windcloud Nine suddenly posted three messages to the World Channel, crowding out Tyrant Sword King the Fifth’s words.

“Gongsun Chuqian and I were engaged to start with, and it was this despicable Dark Wing who tricked my Qian’er away with dirty means! Qian’er, do you hear me? I don’t care about all that, I just want you back!”

Li Yi felt his temper surging, and he swore, “Has that retard lost his mind?”

Qian’er had finally lost it too, messaging Li Yi, “Give me money!”

Li Yi transferred a hundred million to her in one go.

“I’ve never liked you, and I will never like you. Dark Wing never tricked me, but you did. King Fifth, everyone has a limit to their tolerance, and I hope you can give me some basic respect!”

“You’re my fiancee, but you ran off with another man! And now you’re asking me to respect you? Alright then, sure, I can respect you, but first, I want to hear it from your own mouth. Did we have a prior engagement, or didn’t we?!”

He had been mostly low-key before this, but today Tyrant Sword King the Fifth broke the usual mold and boldly taunted them on the World Channel.

“You’re the type of scum who’ll steal a woman’s underwear to masturbate! How are you worthy of any respect?” Li Yi flew off his handle, and he spat back before Qian’er could say anything.

Li Yi’s statement kept Tyrant Sword King the Fifth silent for a long time.

“How could you mention that?!”

“Why shouldn’t I? Should I just let him act all holier-than-thou and accuse you as though he has the moral high ground? Or stand by as he accuses me?”

“King Fifth is no gentleman. If you offend him, he’ll never let you go.”

“If I was scared of him, I wouldn’t get on his bad side. Now that I’ve made an enemy of him, there’s no way I’ll be scared of him!

“King Fifth, why aren’t you saying anything? Why don’t you open your fat*ss mouth? I know all too well, you like collecting women’s underwear, and you have an infinite number of side chicks, and you’re gay, and a pedo too. Blergh, you’re utterly disgusting...”

The one who posted such a riotous statement on the World Channel was none other than Sister Windcloud Nine!
