Chapter 84 – Honesty (2/2)
“I’m killing you!”
I slid forward. Under my feet, a faint glowing aura appeared. I launched my S-Level [Combo], [Strength of a Thousand Men]!
“211!”
“234!”
“241!”
…
Stamping on to the ground, I rammed my shoulder into Jian Feng Han’s chest, causing him to lose his balance! Light gathered at my blade for 0.2 seconds as I prepared to launch [Wind Blade]!
“Kacha!”
The Jade City sword almost completely sliced open Jian Feng Han’s chestplate. A large number appeared——
“899!”
Instantly, Jian Feng Han’s health fell very low. At the same time, my Combo came off its 6-second cooldown!
With a hint of desperation in his eyes, Jian Feng Han shouted, “Darling Duck，[Revive] me immediately after I die！”
Not too far away, Darling Duck stood carrying some health potions and her staff. She looked at us with her beautiful eyes and said: “Why did this happen? Why did Guild leader and Xiao Yao have to become enemies?”
…
“Keng Keng Keng…”
Sparks flew as I continued my fast attacks. I didn’t give Jian Feng Han any time to heal as I hacked away at the rest of his health. Meanwhile, Wang Jian knelt over with his chestplate full of arrows, musket fire, and smoke.
The corners of Wang Jian’s mouth turned up. As he died, he smiled and said: “Xiao Yao is amazing. He really got rid of that trash….”
I glanced and saw that as Jian Feng Han died, a few equipment dropped. In them was a glowing sword, Heavenly Plan Sword!
“Pa!”
I reached out and grabbed Heavenly Plan Sword. To my side, Li Mu laughed: “Great, you got it!?”
But, at that moment, Darling Duck used revive and Jian Feng Han’s corpse jumped up with 50% of his health and mana. Flames flicker on his sword and [Flame Blade] along with a [Combo] landed on my chest. With dense arrows and spells flying at me, my [Heal] wouldn’t be enough!
A violent pain erupted from my chest, I had died!
The instant that I fell, I glanced at Li Mu. He had a helpless expression watching his final 10% of health be destroyed by a barbarian who, using an axe, split Li Mu’s shoulder apart.
….
“Shua!”
I appeared in the nearby graveyard. In my soul state, I still clutched my Jade City Sword but because I killed Jian Feng Han, I had a red name and lost two levels. In addition, the glowing ring on my hand also dropped. Finally, my inventory was empty; the just acquired Heavenly Plan Sword also dropped.
General Li Mu looked at me: “Are you okay?”
“Sorry, Heavenly Plan Sword dropped…”
“That’s expected…” General Li Mu nodded: “It’s part of ’s rules. Newly acquired equipment has a high chance of dropping. But, to be able to kill Jian Feng Han in the middle of over a hundred [Vanguard] players, that’s enough.”
On side, Wang Jian furiously clenched his fist: “It can’t end like this. Jian Feng Han is trash, complete trash.”
General Lian Po smiled and meaningfully said: “You can’t say that Jian Feng Han is trash, it’s just that Purple-tier swords are too expensive. Heavenly Plan Sword is a priceless treasure right now. If it were any other weapon, Jian Feng Han might have given it to us, but he also is dreaming for an upgrade on his old sword and Heavenly Plan Sword is perfect. So Jian Feng Han could only sacrifice us.”
Bai Qi held his axe: “Damn, he’s shameless!”
Li Mu paused: “We lost quite a few levels this time, Xiao Yao, what are your plans?”
I thought about it before saying: “I would like to thank you guys for your support today. I, Li Xiao Yao, will remember this day for the rest of my life. But to attack [Vanguard] right now is kind of dumb. We’re only 5 players and can at most kill 20 players. Our opponent is [Vanguard], 20 players is nothing to them, and they have thousands of players. We can’t fight that.”
Bai Qi nodded: “Yup, you are right, we can’t go and fight them now.”
Wang Jian asked: “Then… Then what should we do now?”
Liao Pao asked: “Xiao Yao, do you really want the Heavenly Plan Sword?”
I firmly shook my head: “Of course not. To make you guys lose another level over a single weapon, I’m not that kind of person. But thankfully, [Vanguard] didn’t get a Guild Creation Tablet this time, so let’s try to get one ourselves. How’s that?”
Liao Pao smiled: “Great! I was also thinking that. With Xiao Yao’s DPS and survivability, all we need to do is get some good healers and we’ll be able to defeat level 50+ gold-tier bosses. If we could get a Guild Creation Tablet before [Vanguard], that’d be the greatest blow to them!”
Li Mu also smiled: “I feel that the most important thing right now is to get the video for the battle just now and our conversations with Jian Feng Han. Jian Feng Han would want to keep his “honorable” appearance and if we don’t have any solid evidence, he would definitely say that we’re lying!”
I nodded: “Yup, I have the videos for the past 24 hours.”
“Great!”
