Chapter 551: The Chronicles of a Virtuous Woman
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
The shooting level was simple and could be done by all cla.s.ses as long as they picked up the bow that was provided by the system. Then, they could shoot at the flying plates thrown by the NPC. They would be able to pa.s.s the stage as long as their hit ratio was more than half of the total plates.
Li Yi’s cla.s.s was an Archer. Thus, his Accuracy attribute was naturally heightened. This stage posed literally no difficulty at all to him.
The shooting range stage had no ‘ultimate difficulty’ for the players to beat. The rewards obtained by hitting half or all of the plates were the same.
After Li Yi and Ouyang Qian has finished clearing the shooting range, Tyrant Sword King the Fifth was still staring eagerly at them. When he was about to start at the shooting range, both of them left him behind again…
Tyrant Sword King the Fifth chose to follow them. He had missed two consecutive stages.
“This brother of yours seem to worry a lot about you.” Li Yi teased.
Ouyang Qian smiled but did not answer.
The stages ahead of them started to grow increasingly difficult.
A steel-armoured tank in the shape of a scorpion blocked the players’ way. At this stage, players could also choose whether to fight or flee the stage.
There was only one Scorpion Tank, and it was approximately 50 meters long and 10 meters high. Its attacking method was very special as it never attacks players unprompted. Instead, it utilized a unique defence strike strategy.
When a player attacked, it would retaliate in kind with an attack power that was roughly double of the player’s attack.
When Li Yi and Ouyang Qian arrived at the area, they realised that there were at least a few thousand people that were currently surrounding the Scorpion Tank and attacking it in a frenzy.
Although the damage dealt to the Scorpion Tank by every player was counted individually, the powerful Scorpion Tank’s defensive retaliation was targeted at all of the players around. Thus, each of its strikes could take down a large group of players.
“Warriors, this is the evil weapon that was left behind by Yuge. Initially, it was immobile, but it might have been infused by the evil powers of Yuge causing it to suddenly move. Quick, stop it, quick!”
A Paladin NPC stood not far away, shouting ceaselessly at the players. He was so annoying that many of the players had cursed unendingly at the NPC.
Ching! Ching! Ching!
The Scorpion Tank retaliated without any pauses in between. As a result, the three thousand or so players had collapsed one after another. When fighting this thing, numbers were unable to provide them with an advantage; instead, the more people involved in the fight, the harder the fight would become.
“Quick, stop it. Stop it now!” The NPC Paladin was still shouting non-stop, causing those players that were dead on the ground to grow even more furious.
Some of them started corpse running, some lied on the ground waiting for a.s.sistance to arrive, while others continued to march forward and challenge the Scorpion Tank.
“This stage is quite difficult.” Ouyang Qian shook her head.
“Mhmm…”
“Sister, let me go forward and have a go.”
Tyrant Sword King the Fifth volunteered courageously and drew his Holy Light Sabre. With a Charge, both he and his mount slammed into the Scorpion Tank.
Wham!
The defence retaliation was triggered, and Tyrant Sword King the Fifth was thrown backwards. He crashed to the ground extremely ungracefully.
Ouyang Qian frowned. “It’ll retaliate every attack made onto it, and it becomes more difficult to defeat the higher attack power a player has. I can’t think of a way on how to defeat it.”
Little Elf from the Magical Realm had not cleared this stage but chosen to evade it entirely.
“What are you in such a hurry for? Let’s keep a look out and observe for a while.”
Li Yi took the initiative to take Ouyang Qian’s hand. She was taken aback for a while but did not fling his hand away. Instead, she allowed him to hold onto her hand.
Both Li Yi and her could not be considered as close friends. They even started off as enemies in the earlier stages of their relations.h.i.+p! However, she had no idea why she felt that everything that happened now was natural as if it should have been this way all along…
Could it be true that both of us were lovers in the past life?
Ouyang Qian felt lost.
The two of them sat at a distance and observed the fight between the players and the Scorpion Tank.
Tyrant Sword King the Fifth was indeed skillful. The Holy Light Sabre danced around so fast that it looked like a flash of flying light. Every flash would cause at least 5 combo hits to the Scorpion Tank, and it would then change into the Defence Mode of the Warrior cla.s.s to withstand the attack of the Scorpion Tank head on.
This time, the battle was partic.i.p.ated by fewer players than before as there were only around twenty people taking part. Everyone had dispersed themselves loosely enough to cover all directions. While the Scorpion Tank’s attacks were targeted at everyone, the main target of its attack would receive higher damage than secondary targets.
After around 5 minutes later, the Scorpion Tank seen by Tyrant Sword King the FIfth turned blue. Although other players were still attacking it, the Scorpion Tank in his eyes had stopped moving. This meant that he had already cleared the stage.
Tyrant Sword King the Fifth ran over to them. “Hahaha, sister, you can just attack it with combo hits and then defend yourself. This is a very easy stage.”
Li Yi snorted coldly. “You’re a Paladin and have a high defence. Qian’er, on the other hand, does not have as high of a defence as you do.”
Tyrant Sword King the Fifth did a double take before chuckling. “What great ideas do you bring to the table then?”
“I don’t have any great ideas, but pa.s.sing the stage is no problem at all.”
Li Yi moved his mouth closer to Qian’er’s ears to softly whisper to her. This move looked extraordinarily intimate as if he was kissing Qian’er’s ears for a long time. Although Tyrant Sword King the FIfth was still smiling, the hand that held onto his weapon had started to shake involuntarily. This was a display of extreme anger.
Ouyang Qian had blushed bright red too. She never expected Li Yi to do this, and all she could feel was how her ears were slightly itchy. Her thoughts had drifted far away that she had missed over half of what Li Yi had told her.
“Did you hear me clearly?”
“What?”
“Do you need me to repeat that?”
“No no no, there’s no need for that.”
Ouyang Qian stood up in a panic. Li Yi noticed that both of her fair white ears had turned pink with embarra.s.sment.
Li Yi was overjoyed. Her ears had probably changed colours in real life too.
The most sensitive part of Qian’er’s body was her ears. Even though no one else knew this secret, this information was clear as day to him…
“Remember, when you see the Scorpion’s tail has risen, stop attacking. When the tail is down, attack it as hard as you could.” Li Yi sent Ouyang Qian another private message.
“Oh, is that it? I… I didn’t manage to hear you clearly just now.”
“Just remember this, it’s enough.”
“Oh…”
The Scorpion Tank would neither resp.a.w.n or collapse. Thus, players could challenge it endlessly.
Li Yi and Ouyang Qian had joined in the fight. Now, the number of players that attacked the Scorpion Tank had dropped to a lower number. There were just five people around, Li Yi and Ouyang Qian included.
The fewer people involved, the easier it will be to clear it!
When the Scorpion’s tail was raised high, Li Yi and Ouyang Qian stopped attacking simultaneously. However, since the remaining the three players there had no idea about this, they kept on attacking.
The Scorpion Tank retaliated in defence, and the blastwave has. .h.i.t all of them. All five of them suffered from damage.
“It doesn’t seem like it’s effective…” Ouyang Qian looked at Li Yi with confusion.
“It’ll work only after a few more times.”
“Oh…”
After repeating the process for another seven times, the effects were finally seen. The damage that was inflicted onto the two of them was gradually decreasing.
When the Scorpion’s tail fell, both of them attacked ferociously; when the Scorpion’s tail rises, they would cease all attacks. The three other players were just a hair away from death, but it only took Li Yi and Ouyang Qian three minutes to clear the stage easily.
“That’s easy.”
Li Yi laughed, “It’s easy when you know the way to do it. If you don’t know the method, it’s a thousand times harder.”
“Hehe, that’s true. Eh?”
Ouyang Qian looked at her surroundings and gasped in confusion, “When did King Fifth leave?”
“He left right after we started our fight. Why, do you miss him already?” Li Yi’s tone dripped with jealousy.
Ouyang Qian blinked and teased mischievously, “What do you think?”
“Bye-bye, Mr. Perverted Yi.”
Before Li Yi could even respond to that, Ouyang Qian had waved at him and went offline.
Li Yi immediately lost his motivation once Ouyang Qian had logged off. After some thought, he had gone offline too. He was feeling hungry, and Jiaojiao should already be done preparing the meal.
While it was true that Jiaojiao had already prepared the meal, no one had even touched or eaten them. The bowls and chopsticks were merely placed on the table, still good as new.
“Jiaojiao, Ice, it’s time to eat! Come out!”
Li Yi called out for them for a few times but did not receive any answers. He was filled with curiosity and started to walk towards the bedroom. The door to the room was locked, and he failed to open it even after pus.h.i.+ng at it for a few times.
“Jiaojiao? Are you there?”
No one replied.
“Ah! Help!”
Just when Li Yi had turned to leave, a terrified scream was heard from within the bedroom.
“Jiaojiao? Jiaojiao?” Li Yi slammed his palm hard against the door for a few times.
“Did something happen?”
After hearing the call for help from within the room, Li Yi was so worried about Jiaojiao that he hurried himself to the living room to retrieve the other pair of keys to the room. Then, he managed to open the door.
Fire Ice was not in the bedroom. Jiaojiao was alone and wrapped in nothing but a blanket while she curled in front of the computer, typing furiously. The keyboard was making non-stop clicking sounds.
Ms. Jiaojiao was so engrossed in it that she did not even realise how Li Yi had approached her from behind.
Understanding had flooded Li Yi right after he took a glance at the computer screen. Jiaojiao was busy writing a novel, and the t.i.tle sounded very compelling.
Midnight Rape Monster – The Chronicles of a Virtuous Woman.
When Li Yi continued on to read the contents, he nearly p.i.s.sed himself off so much to the point that he had wrinkled his nose.
Jiaojiao had written the novel based on what had happened between them last night. However, in Jiaojiao’s story, he had a change in character; no longer was he the ‘boyfriend’, but the ‘rape monster’. Meanwhile, Jiaojiao had turned into a weak and feeble young lady that was thoroughly humiliated by the rape monster…
Click clack click clack, tap tap tap tap…
Jiaojiao was so into it that she did not realise that she now had a ‘spectator’ by her side. She would sometimes close her eyes to meditate and think, or she would start to s.h.i.+ver with her entire being. Other times, she would suddenly emit a scream…
No wonder she called out for help just now. She was once again imagining the scene where she was a.s.saulted…
Li Yi was speechless for a very long time. After he continued to observe the situation, an idea suddenly occurred to him.
Why not help her out with her imaginations?
Li Yi then proceeded to strip all of his clothes and found a piece of white cloth to wrap himself in from the torso up to his head. After that, he went to look at himself in the mirror. He looked like a mummy in the reflection.
This was great, this was epic. Even I could not recognise who I am! This might just work!
Li Yi was very pleased with his work and he hopped excitedly towards Jiaojiao.
Without even explaining what he was planning to do, Li Yi wrapped himself around Jiaojiao from behind her back.
“Who is this? Who is this! Who is this, who is this, who is this!” Jiaojiao was shouting so loudly that it was as if she had violently woken up from a dream. When she turned to look, she saw a scary head that was wrapped entirely in white cloth. She was so shocked that a chill went down her spine. At that moment, Li Yi’s hands were moving down to grab her b.o.o.bs. She instinctually blocked his move with the back of her arms and gave him a bazooka blow to the face.
She really did live up to her t.i.tle as a coach for female self-defence. She was a professional that was certified by the country!
Wham!
A punch landed square on Li Yi’s eyes. One of his eyes had immediately bruised so badly that he had looked like a panda, Before he could react, he had gotten another strike right to his guts that was so painful that he had to squat down. Right when he did that, he was trapped in a headlock and soon felt a tremendous pain from his head. Jiaojiao had held his head and slammed it on the floor so hard that he had pa.s.sed out from it right then and there…
Jiaojiao’s set of movements were as fluid as flowing water as there were no pauses in between skills. All of that was done in one breath, and it was so beautifully seamless.
“Oh my G.o.d, why would there be a pervert in our house?”
Jiaojiao patted her chest while she shouted and yelled. Even though her self-defence skills were great, this was still the first practical session that she had experienced when dealing with a pervert in real life.
“Hm? Hm?”
Jiaojiao probed at Li Yi with her feet. That pretty cherry-like mouth of her was immediately agape…
“Perverted Yi? You, y-you, you… Y-you…”
Jiaojiao screamed and proceeded to straddle Li Yi. Then, she started to rhythmically press on his heard and performed CPR on him by pa.s.sing oxygen through his lips with hers…
