Chapter 649: Absolute Territory
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Within merely ten minutes, Li Yi had taken down the Bloodseeker boss. The group of players that Carefree Happy brought in did not even move. They just watched the whole thing…
Carefree Happy secretly messaged Li Yi. “Great G.o.d, where did you buy these hacks?”
How could he deal ten million damage with one hit? He must be hacking! Carefree Happy jumped to conclusions.
Li Yi did not explain anything to him. Considering Carefree Happy’s level of knowledge, there was no way he would possibly understand something like this. Besides, there was no need for Li Yi to explain.
Li Yi looted the corpse but did not find any mounts, so he used the Dungeon Escape Scroll to leave the dungeon.
He did not take a single piece of equipment, leaving it all for them.
“Y’all can split up the equipment as you like.”
“G-G-Great G.o.d…” Carefree Happy was at a loss for words again. All the equipment the Bloodseeker boss dropped was, without exception, Purple Quality Equipment, and he just gave it all away like that?
“Great G.o.d, take me as your follower!”
Outside the dungeon, Li Yi left the party and released a long breath of relief.
Although he could not increase his levels right now, the existence of Territory Power meant that all the EXP he gained from completing dungeons went straight to his Territory.
Li Yi contacted Confused Fox. “Brother Fox, how’s it going in the dungeon?”
“It’s all fine now. Old Nine and Lil Nine are back to normal, chatting and laughing like nothing happened.”
“So Brother Nine didn’t say anything?”
“What’s there to say? He said he lost his Internet connection earlier, and that’s it. Sigh, guess we overthought things. The two of them are perfectly lovey-dovey, so I’m warning you, don’t have any ideas about Lil Nine.”
“Since when did I have any ideas about Lil Nine? You old pervert!”
Confused Fox huffed, “When have I ever been a pervert?”
Li Yu chuckled. “I heard you hooked up with that Rural Flowing Cloud?”
“Yeah, what about it?”
“I also heard that you got something with Yang Xingchen’s older sister, eh?”
“Cough cough cough cough, n-no… of course not.”
“Yang Xingchen’s sister is over forty years old. Brother Fox, you have pretty intense tastes, huh?”
“Nonsense, do I seem like that kind of guy? Talk to you later, we’re starting the dungeon soon!”
Confused Fox hurriedly ended the private conversation.
While Li Yi was conversing with Confused Fox, three Thieves approached Li Yi using Stealth, armed with daggers.
This was Dragonbone Waste, where the three major factions intersected. It was perfectly common to ambush members of the other side here.
One minute later, the three Thieves were laid flat on the ground, and Li Yi summoned Onyxia, leaving on her back.
When Territory Power was activated, his Sensory Skill was highly enhanced. Unless the Thief using Stealth had Territory Power too, Stealth was nothing in the face of his Territory Power. The same applied to all of the players’ skills.
They were utterly useless!
“Guild Master, the ambush failed. Dark Wing is too much to handle, it’s like he has eyes at the back of his head, he even saw through our Stealth…” The three Thieves reported back to Tyrant Sword King the Fifth.
The higher one became, the more attention they got. Li Yi’s reputation preceded him, so while there were many who liked them, there were also plenty of people who hated him. For instance, Tyrant Sword King the Fifth and Shoot Until Daybreak hated his guts.
If they could not fight him head-on, it was perfectly normal for them to try other sneakier methods, like sending a.s.sa.s.sins after him.
While Li Yi was out completing his missions, he would b.u.mp into a couple of players lying in wait every day. However, not a single one of them managed to kill him.
Everything was pointless in the face of Territory Power!
When Li Yi flew to the Invincible Continent Teleportation Door, he saw a bunch of Southern Continent players guarding the gate. By his rough estimates, there were at least three thousand players there.
Tyrant Sword King the Fifth was riding a Black Beetle Mount and armed with a Purple-gold Sabre, standing in front of the teleportation door and cutting quite an imposing figure.
He was waiting for Li Yi. Lately, he had sent countless a.s.sa.s.sins out for Li Yi, but all he had to show for it was an increasing sense of frustration. He had spent quite a bit of money, but Li Yi had not died even once. This lit a fuming fire in his heart, and he had to vent somehow.
“Motherf*cking King Fifth, just you wait and see!”
“You’re shameless, why’d you kill me?”
“King Fifth, I’d kill you down to Level Zero, or I wouldn’t be Defiantly Tyrannical!”
“What did I do to you for you to kill me? Say something, why aren’t you answering?”
There were two corpses lying on the ground, the man being Defiantly Tyrannical and the girl being his younger sister Defiant Xiaoxiao. The siblings were unfortunate as Tyrant Sword King the Fifth had killed them as soon as teleported here.
“The strong rule supreme. Defiantly Tyrannical, you were once a hero too, so why are you deteriorating as time pa.s.ses? Where’d your past glories go? Where are your Tyrannic Dynasty’s Thirty-six a.s.sa.s.sins? Don’t tell me they’re all gone?”
Bai Xiaoya stood before Defiantly Tyrannical’s body, her tone dripping with sarcasm.
Even before they started King of Pantheon, the Fluttering Snow Alliance and Tyrannic Dynasty had been arch-enemies. Now that they were in a different game, instead of cooling down, the grudge between the two guilds had heated up even further.
“Bai Xiaoya, shut your filthy mouth. You little b*tch, you don’t deserve to talk about my guild!”
“Haha, Brother Tyrannical, your temper hasn’t changed one bit. You flame at the slightest spark, tsk-tsk. Is this your sister? She’s pretty cute, got a boyfriend? Want me to introduce her one?”
“Scram!”
“I mean well, Brother Tyrannical. After all, although our two guilds were always in conflict back then, we were at least more or less on equal footing, right? But now?” Bai Xiaoya shook her head and sighed. “Dark Wing suppressed you so badly. You built the Tyrannic Dynasty over so many years, but what do you have left?”
Defiantly Tyrannical spat. “It’s none of your business!”
“Yeah, it’s got nothing to do with me, but have you ever wondered if your Tyrannic Dynasty will ever rise again if things go on like this? Hahaha, I even heard that you’re planning to lead your men out of Pantheon and into another game?”
“Hehe…”
“Brother Tyrannical, I have a little suggestion. Why don’t we team up? We’ll fight the Iron Alliance together, and I refuse to believe that Dark Wing will still be able to trample all over us!”
“Team up with you, the Fluttering Snow Alliance?”
Bai Xiaoya nodded. “As long as you’re willing, the position of the Fluttering Snow Alliance fourth Vice Guild Master will be yours!”
Defiantly Tyrannical chortled. “You want me to join your Fluttering Snow Alliance? Sure, as long as you and Fluttering Snow Purple Water Chestnut kneel and lick my d*ck for an hour, I’ll join your guild in a heartbeat. That isn’t too much to ask for, is it? Hahaha…”
Upon hearing Defiantly Tyrannical’s words, Bai Xiaoya’s hand shook around her flute out of fury.
Defiant Xiaoxiao said angrily, “Big Bro, how could say something so nasty? I’ll ignore you from now on…”
“Cough cough cough, hurry and mute your voice chat, that was you won’t hear anything I say.”
When Li Yi flew to the teleportation door, he saw Defiantly Tyrannical lying on the ground and cursing Bai Xiaoya non-stop.
Onyxia roared once and slowly landed on the ground.
“Dark Wing’s here, everyone on your marks!” Tyrant Sword King the Fifth yelled out.
Buffs lit up, scrolls were torn, and potions were chugged. Over three thousand members of the Fluttering Purple Alliance reacted like they were facing the battle of their lives, basically treating Li Yi like a boss.
“Go!”
Tyrant Sword King the Fifth pointed with his Purple-gold Sabre, and the three thousand members of the Fluttering Purple Alliance rushed at him, all at once.
The grudge between them was too deep now, so there was no point saying anything now. Many skills came flying madly at Li Yi. All of them knew how strong Li Yi was, and they also knew that they did not stand a chance if they fought him one-on-one, so their only hope was to attack at once and hope to kill him instantly.
Of the three thousand players, only Tyrant Sword King the Fifth and Bai Xiaoya stood still. They stood guard in front of the Defiant siblings’ corpses, watching the battle from a far distance away from Li Yi.
“Territory Release!”
Gold light shone in all directions from all Li Yi’s body, covering a surface area of 30 yards. The Fluttering Snow Alliance’s members’ more powerful skills break through the barrier of light, but they immediately started slowing down.
They approached Li Yi extremely slowly. If one did not look closely, it seemed as though it had stopped moving altogether.
Fireb.a.l.l.s, Hailstorms, Windblades, arrows, lightning… Without exception, everything slowed down, moving slower than snails…
This was the Absolute Territory s.p.a.ce formed by unleas.h.i.+ng his Territory. In this s.p.a.ce, everything would move at drastically lower speeds. Only Territory powerhouses like Fluttering Snow Purple Water Chestnut could move freely, but for everyone and everything else, the end result was the same.
They would move so slowly, they may as well not be moving at all!
“G.o.d Mode— Activate!”
With the golden light enveloping him, Li Yi shot more than twenty Overlord Arrows at the crowd with a flick of his wrist. When he ran out of mana, he followed through with Blazing Fields.
“Smack! Smack! Smack! Smack! Smack!”
The Interruption notifications appeared over and over again, and the terrifying shock wave from the Overlord Arrows continued to spread. Finally, the flames from his Blazing Fields move engulfed the entire army of over three thousand players…
Although Overlord Arrow did not benefit from the Infinite Burst Territory Skill’s buff, Territory Mode nevertheless gave his character’s attributes a huge boost. Right now, any attack he unleashed would deal more than twice as much damage as usual.
Li Yi downed a Sacred Hope potion and instantly regained 30% of his mana.
“Overlord Arrow!”
“Zzzip zzzip zzzip zzzip zzzip…”
The golden arrows shot out once more, but it did not matter what skills the three thousand members of the Fluttering Snow Alliance used now. Invincibility did not work either, because Territory Power overcame all other effects. Using Invincibility in the face of Territory Power was practically suicidal.
[Interrupted! Interrupted!]
The shock wave spread, and every single one of the three thousand odd members of the Fluttering Snow Alliance collapsed…
Li Yi walked forth, and the Territory light barrier moved with him. However, the attacks that entered the barrier would not follow suit, and as soon as they left the Territory, their effects would immediately work on the ground instead.
“Boom! Boom! Boom!”
The earth shook behind Li Yi, but he was completely unaffected. Like a G.o.d, he walked toward Tyrant Sword King the Fifth.
Defiant Xiaoxiao’s voice was filled with admiration. “Brother Dark Wing is so cool…”
