Chapter 512 - Old God (1/2)

“F*ck, why are you so troublesome! Hurry up and die so I can get my 500.” The Warlock, who Ye Xiu called Old Wei, responded in an extremely loud voice. Chen Guo could even hear his voice from Ye Xiu’s headphones clearly.

His hands didn’t stop moving either. The Warlock jumped backwards. He had predicted Ye Xiu would use a Back Throw and dodged it.

“You’re still looking at that 500? Did you not see the statement?” Ye Xiu said, while continuing to attack. Lord Grim shook the Thousand Chance Umbrella and it transformed into a spear shooting towards the Warlock.

“Hm? Statement? What statement?” The Warlock asked.

“The bounty has already been withdrawn.” Ye Xiu told him.

“F*ck, that happened?! Then all of the work this senior did was for nothing? Practicing the team’s coordination and studying your work and rest schedule?” The Warlock shouted.

“Not my problem. Why didn’t you start a day or two earlier? They only just withdrew it.” Ye Xiu said.

“You’re not trying to trick me, are you? What statement? Send it to me.” The Warlock yelled.

“One sec.” Ye Xiu said.

Chen Guo was stunned. Could everything that had happened today have just been an accident? Who the heck was this guy?

Chen Guo was just about to ask, when she suddenly discovered that while Ye Xiu should be finding a link to send to him, he didn’t even have a web browser open. However, he had stopped controlling his character. Lord Grim stood there, not moving.

“You….”

Chen Guo only said one word, when a shadow suddenly appeared behind Lord Grim. The shadow lifted its hands and cut downwards in a cold arc.

Ye Xiu immediately input a string of commands. Lord Grim stepped to the side and turned around, allowing Chen Guo to get a glimpse of the attacker. The shadow was an a.s.sa.s.sin, holding a dagger. The a.s.sa.s.sin looked like a wild tiger, undaunted by dangers. Chen Guo couldn’t help but tremble. She recognized this skill: Life-Risking Strike!

Blood for blood. Life for life.

Life-Risking Strike didn’t consume mana, but rather used health. The a.s.sa.s.sin’s health burned like mana for a final strike. As long as it hit, the health spent would do true damage to the opponent, ignoring all defenses. In other words, even if it were a weaponless a.s.sa.s.sin, as long as he used Life-Risking Strike, he would guarantee that would do damage proportional to the amount of health he burned.

The amount of health that could be burned depended on the skill’s level. The higher the skill level was, the more health could be burned. The max-leveled skill had no limit to the amount of health that could be burned. One could even burn one’s health to zero. However, once the skill ended, the a.s.sa.s.sin would certainly die.

Life-Risking Strike could be an instant kill move. It was the only skill in Glory that could kill a full health character in one hit.

Using one’s own life in exchange for damage was fair. The only thing which limited the amount of damage this strike did, was the a.s.sa.s.sin’s own health. If one saw an a.s.sa.s.sin equipped with Stamina increasing equipment, then one would be extremely wary of this move. These types of a.s.sa.s.sins stacked health in order to fully utilize this Life-Risking Strike.

a.s.sa.s.sins weren’t a cla.s.s with high stamina, so they didn’t have much health. After an a.s.sa.s.sin burned his health, he would just be an extremely weakened Cloth armor cla.s.s, but if an a.s.sa.s.sin stacked stamina, any cla.s.s would have to match up against them careful.

This a.s.sa.s.sin suddenly used Life-Risking Strike.

Lord Grim grew in a balanced manner, so while he didn’t have a lot of health, he didn’t have too little either. However, his level was low and his equipment were relatively weak. If this attack had hit, the true damage trading health for health was one thing. The skill’s base damage was already painful enough for Lord Grim. In addition, Lord Grim wasn’t at full health right now. An instant kill wouldn’t have been hard for this a.s.sa.s.sin to achieve.

Even though Lord Grim stepped to the side, this a.s.sa.s.sin had clearly burned a lot of health. Lord Grim had stepped to the side, but the a.s.sa.s.sin quick movements from using this Life-Risking Strike made it so Lord Grim’s sidestep not only did not widen the distance between them, but closed the distance. With Lord Grim’s stats, dodging this Life-Risking Strike was clearly too difficult.

Chen Guo thought Lord Grim would certainly die from this strike. Suddenly, a dark light flashed, turning into a six-pointed star. A green goblin popped out from the six-pointed star right in between Lord Grim and the a.s.sa.s.sin.

The poor little Goblin didn’t even have time to understand the situation when it made a shrill cry. The a.s.sa.s.sin’s Life-Risking Strike smashed into its body.

“F*CKKK!!!!” The a.s.sa.s.sin also cried out. The poor goblin had already exploded into a b.l.o.o.d.y corpse, but the a.s.sa.s.sin didn’t feel sorry for the Goblin at all. The Life-Risking Strike, which he had burned almost all of his health for, had struck a weak little house pet. How could he not mourn!

After Life-Risking Strike was used, potions couldn’t be used for a certain amount of time and the user wouldn’t be able to receive any healing spells during this time either. Otherwise, if one could chug potions and receive help from a Cleric, there wouldn’t be any risk involved in using this skill.

Risking one’s life meant no regrets. When Jing Ke attempted an a.s.sa.s.sination on Ying Zheng, he hadn’t left a path for his retreat.

“D*mn! Even that didn’t hit! Is there still any justice in this world!” The Warlock roared in fury.

“Nonsense. I was prepared for it!” Ye Xiu said, while attacking back at the a.s.sa.s.sin. The a.s.sa.s.sin had burned his own health in order to kill a measly green goblin. He was still filled with grief and wasn’t able to react. Ye Xiu seized this opportunity to give him a quick beating and killed the a.s.sa.s.sin.

Chen Guo heard the two speaking to each other and became dumbstruck again. Both of them harbored evil intents! That Warlock lied to Ye Xiu saying he could leave, but had an a.s.sa.s.sin make a sneak attack. On the other hand, Ye Xiu pretended to be fooled, but then took the chance to kill the enemy a.s.sa.s.sin.

Neither of them were sincere, but in any case, it was the Warlock who started it. In addition, the Warlock had set up an ambush as soon as he went online. More importantly….. Chen Guo was definitely  on Ye Xiu’s side.

“Too despicable!!” Chen Guo moved closer to Ye Xiu’s headphones and shouted.

“Where’d this b*tch come from!” The Warlock answered back without a hint of politeness.

“Ambus.h.i.+ng us as soon as we log in, how low can you get?” Chen Guo shouted.

“Ha ha ha ha, you can remember this senior’s name if you’d like!” The Warlock laughed.

“Peh, I’m not that shameless. If you’ve got the skill, 1v1 me!” Chen Guo spat.

“Ha ha, are you hot? If you’re hot, I can keep you company. If not, I don’t have that sort of free time.” The Warlock responded.
