796 Chapter 796 - You’ve got this skill too? (2/2)

The opinion of the players below and those above was contradictory. Someone had even posed that Gu Fei could have used a teleportation scroll and left after making it up to the rock.

”Just throw a rock down anyway!” The final decision that they all came to was still to give it a shot. Thus, the players up on the mountain did not care either as they started to take aim and start pelting down objects at that rocky protrusion. Actually, Gu Fei was still on that rock at the moment, but he had been tightly hugging the rocky cliff face the entire time, and because the cliff was not like a smooth and flat mirror, their line of sight was obviously obstructed since Gu Fei had reduced his exposure by shrinking behind the natural cover provided by the craggy cliff.

”How are things with you guys?” Gu Fei felt that he was quite safe right now, so he sent a message over to Young Master Han and the others.

”We're trapped. Where did you fly off to?” Young Master Han and the rest only saw Gu Fei leap away from his encirclement, but they had no idea what the situation was like with him since Gu Fei had gone up along the backside of the mountain.

”I'm fine.”

”You may be alright, but we will be in trouble soon.”

As the other party was unable to do anything with Gu Fei, they decided to divert their attention toward Young Master Han and the others since they had nothing else better to do. Young Master Han and everyone was presently obstructed on that mountain path, all of them hugging the cliff wall as they moved. They were afraid of being squashed by the rocks and logs if they were to fan out onto the path, while also afraid of the enemy's attack if they continued to advance forward. But now that the enemy no longer had to surround and trap Gu Fei, they were able to relegate some of their men to begin making their move toward Gu Fei's friends. A line that consisted purely of Archers was standing in a safe distance, drawing their bowstrings as they let loose their arrows. They were lined up in rows there, while Young Master Han was standing in a single file. Facing their enemy, there was no way for them to mount any substantial retaliation, so Young Master Han and the rest had no choice but to retreat, letting these ambushers from the workshop to slowly move on up to them.

”Don't panic, ” Gu Fei replied as he carefully observed his left and right; his eyes caught sight on a pine tree above whose branch extended outward horizontally. Instantly pulling out his grappling hook once more, he tossed it out in one go, entangling, wrapping, and hooking onto the branch far more securely than the rock from before. Gu Fei took a deep breath, tugged at the rope as he suddenly came swinging out.

”Over there!” Players below saw Gu Fei appear and were all shouting out loud. In the end, they saw Gu Fei wrap the rope once around his fist as he began scaling the cliff face, as if he was running up vertically. He was moving much faster this time than the pendulum motion he displayed minutes ago, so any of the players who tried to draw a bead on the target came away with nothing. What made it even more bizarre was how Gu Fei kept running and swaying halfway before suddenly disappearing in a sudden flash.

”Blink!!” The quick-witted players were still around, and the 5 seconds had long since passed, so naturally it meant Thousand Miles Drunk would be able to cast spells by now.

”Where did he blink to??” Everyone was looking everywhere with their eyes wide open. The fact that none of them could see where he materialized of course meant that he had chosen a spot similar to that protruding rock the last time. All of them started pointing and crying out ”there” one after another almost immediately, calling attention to their own protruding rock that they spotted.

Their answer came in the form of a Descending Wheel of Flames.

Gu Fei was perched up on a vantage point, able to indiscriminately throw out his Descending Wheel of Flames, and this spell had appeared from thin air all of a sudden as it came crashing down. None of them knew where the incantation had come from, so they could only identify all the various suspected hiding spots that he could be in and relay it to the players up on the mountaintop to help them look.

Constantly looking down from up high like they did, it was unavoidable for them to become dizzy, and the players up above were unable to stomach this for long, so they made excuses to avoid doing it. There was no need for any of them to look down like that when they were executing the ambush before; all they needed was to ask for the coordinates and push the objects down the mountain accordingly. There was no need to keep looking down, but now that they were constantly being asked to do so, gazing down time and time again, each of them began to feel a bout of dizziness come over them, with some even getting a system warning about detecting their state of unwellness.

”I think we should forget about it. Why don't we line up a row and push the objects down like that?” Someone suggested.

”That's right. We can't find that man anywhere anyway. There's no way that we could have been able to see anything if the man just huddles himself to some corner and takes cover.”

”Let's do that!!”

”Okay, push!” The one in charge finally gave the order, so the whole lot of them exerted themselves to their limit and shoved all of the objects that they had carried over down the mountain in one go. With so many objects in motion, the stir it made was of course proportionately large as well. The rumbling sounds echoed within this mountain pass, giving Young Master Han and his men quite the scare. However, when they raised their head to look, they discovered that nothing was being thrown down at them. Instead, they got a message from Gu Fei, ”Okay, step out and kill!”

”What happened?” Young Master Han asked. Gu Fei did not respond, so Young Master Han lifted his head up and set his gaze over to the mountaintop. Could that guy have managed to expend all their resources up there? But then, how would he know if that was all their resources or otherwise?

Up there on the mountaintop, Gu Fei was already standing right on the edge of the cliff in his delight, looking at the panic-stricken faces of the players there. His eyes rested on a particular player he recognized, ”So it was you, guild leader Arrogant Spawn!”

Arrogant Spawn was the name Dusky Cloud and his comrades scornfully used for the player actually called Proud Sovereign. He was the guild leader of a guild from Yueye City, Proud Skies, and he was also the branch manager of Remarkable Flair workshop there in Yueye City.

Proud Sovereign stared at Gu Fei, exhaling a deep sigh in the process, ”You've got the skill to rock-climb too?”
