Chapter 40 (1/2)

While Qin Fengyi was livestreaming, the chatroom was flooded with messages.

“What happened to that douchebag who was shouting earlier on, why hasn’t he said anything yet?”

“Hurry up!”

“Hurry up and divide the cash.”

“WillowBaby, you are so full of sh*t! I will remember you. Weren’t you just spewing all sorts of crap, where are you now?”

Fengyi looked at the messages on the screen at the corner of her eyes. “You’re going to make a fortune today. In just moments, we’ve stacked up a few hundred ingots!” Fengyi smiled.

“Those ingots are yours.” Li Yao sat on top of the dome catching his breath. They had killed thirty Elites and Li Yao’s Exp bar had reached 88%. He would level up once they clear out the second platform.

Even Li Yao felt that leveling up this way was awesome. This was the result of killing Elite mobs that were five levels higher than them.

“Levelling up this way is awesome! But I feel like we’ve dragged you down.” Tong was both thrilled and distraught.

Li Yao patted her on the head, “It is impossible for me to level up this way alone, I can’t do it without your help. Besides, all of you play an important role at later stages, we’re just in the first platform.”

“Really?”

“Of course, trust me.” Li Yao replied in a serious tone.

“Boss, why don’t you call up another person into the squad, I want to go up there too. I can’t see much from below and I can’t learn much of your techniques.” ShadowDancer looked pitiful as he stood on the hilltop.

Before Li Yao could say anything, Tong waved her hand impatiently. “You can open up Summer’s livestream and watch it there. Cut the nonsense, if you are not willing, I will replace you with someone else.”

“No, please don’t! My mistress, I thought that you promised to carry me until I become an expert player.”

“Then be prepared to take orders from Big Bro, or I’ll really replace you.” Tong said, she acted like a big lady boss that was full of herself.

“Yes, yes.” ShadowDancer tried to appease Tong.

Countless fans and viewers were instantly drawn by them and burst into laughter. The little gnome was too funny, she acted just like a child. What they did not know was that Tong was in fact a child.

Li Yao looked at them with a blank mind. The scenario was not right, ShadowDancer did not look like he had the slightest bit of dominance and ruthlessness like an Apotheosized Bandit, instead he was completely someone else’s punching bag.

“My fans told me that KB said unless you’re really a master, you will not be able to reach the second platform and it’s impossible to stay at the platform and kill mobs this way.” Summer laughed. “My fans asked if you agree with that statement?”

“There is one thing that KB said that was right, which is the method we used for the first platform that is not suitable for the second platform. But he said I won’t be able to reach the second platform, and I’m going to prove him wrong.” Li Yao looked at Tong and Fengyi, “It’s time to play your parts now, I wonder if you can meet my requirements.”

“Whatever requirement you have, I’m up for it. I’m very capable!” Tong shook her little fist.

“It won’t be a problem for me, too.” Of course, Fengyi was not willing to fall behind.

“Alright then, let’s test this out. ShadowDancer, stand on the hilltop and walk slowly, keep your tempo similar to that Elite mob. Can you do that?” Li Yao asked ShadowDancer.

ShadowDancer observed the strides of the Elite that was currently patrolling on the spiral corridor. He nodded. “Their pacing and tempo are fixed, they are easy to learn and imitate.”

Without waiting for Li Yao to say anything, he began to learn the Elite’s steps and began pacing back and forth on the hillside.

“Why do you need him to learn the Elite’s pace?” Tong was curious to the point where she was going mad, but deep down she was extremely excited. Following Li Yao was so much fun.

“My request is simple, I need Tong to use Lava Burst and Feng… er, Summer to use Bone Spear to attack ShadowDancer at the same time. Doesn’t matter if your attacks do not land at the same time, but the timing must not be more than half a second apart. Both of you can practice your timings, if you can’t do it, we have no way to get to the second platform.”

Tong and Fengyi exchanged glances. “Witch Sis, how long will it take for you to release a Bone Spear?” Tong asked.

“My Bone Spear requires 1.25 seconds of incantation time.” Summer replied.

“My Lava Burst takes 1.75 seconds to fire out.”

Summer nodded. “Your Lava Burst is a throwing skill, just like my Bone Spear. From what I know, the general throwing skill has the same projectile velocity. How about this, you still start your incantation first, I will follow next and try to synchronize our attacks.”

“Okay,” Tong agreed. Li Yao gave them a countdown and both players began to recite incantations and unleash their skills one after the other.

At the TV station…

After ten attempts, KB looked at them both as they were basically able to hit ShadowDancer that was mimicking the Elite Patrol’s stride. “Awesome.”

Tina, who was just an anchor and did not have a deep understanding of the game had some questions. “That doesn’t seem that hard to me.”

“It’s way harder than you think.” KB replied. “You think that once AdorkableTong recites her incantation first, Summer will recite right after her and they will be able to meet Liao Yuan’s requirements, right?”
