Chapter 641: w.a.n.g Yu’s TempoTranslator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas StudiosJust as everyone was still confused, the G.o.d of Puppets’ upper body had already returned to its original position. Shortly after, it twisted and attacked w.a.n.g Yu again.
Just like before, w.a.n.g Yu used both his hands for hinder as he flew to the other side together with the G.o.d of Puppets’ long sword. Following up on that, he jumped and used [Eagle Stomp], [Thunder G.o.d’s Stomp], [Eye Piercing] and [Double Moon Encirclement].
G.o.d of Puppets tried to grab him but w.a.n.g Yu slipped away with his clone…
Spring Halo, Ming Du and the rest were already observing with the att.i.tude to learn. However, they were still completely at a loss even after observing this round closely. They were unable to comprehend anything at all.
“What on earth is going on? Shouldn’t he be slashed into two by that sword? External modifications?”
Everyone in Quan Zhen Sect was a top expert and top experts would usually have this exceptional curiosity towards unfathomable gaming techniques. w.a.n.g Yu used the same method to fight the G.o.d of Puppets twice but these fellas were still unable to obtain any clues as to how he did it. Therefore, they started scratching their ears and babbling nonsense.
“External modification your head! Did you guys not see how he jumped backwards when he exchanged blows with the BOSS? You think he is stupid enough to take on the BOSS directly?” Yang Nuo started scolding.
Yang Nuo’s judgement couldn’t be compared to the rest of the Quan Zhen Sect. However, because she was also a pract.i.tioner of martial arts, Yang Nuo understood w.a.n.g Yu better than anyone else. While others might not know how w.a.n.g Yu did it, this lady understood everything clearly.
“Jumped backwards?” Everyone was taken aback and during the third round, everyone paid close attention to w.a.n.g Yu’s legs.
Just like what Yang Nuo said, w.a.n.g Yu jumped back at the moment both his swords came into contact with the BOSS’s cross blade.
Because of the G.o.d of Puppets’ high judgement, it was capable of hitting players so hard that they fly out. Therefore, n.o.body noticed this point previously. Even if they did notice, it was near impossible to discern that it was w.a.n.g Yu’s doing.
After all, battles in games were highly dependent on the data and skills of the players. In the eyes of other players, w.a.n.g Yu’s little maneuvers were deemed to be unfathomable.
“Old Bull’s jump cancelled out the power of the BOSS’s strike?” Boson scratched his head as he asked. Even though Boson wasn’t crafty enough, he was gifted in terms of gaming movements. Hence, he was able to understand w.a.n.g Yu’s motive for doing so.
“Cancelled out? You can do that?” Everyone was shocked when they heard Boson’s words.
Everyone had only heard of dodging an attack in the game. No ordinary players would have dared to even think about jumping back to cancel out the force of a BOSS’s direct strike.
“Even so, wouldn’t Old Bull still get hit after cancelling out the force of the strike?” Ming Du asked depressingly.
“Haha!” Spring Halo laughed, “Did you not notice that Brother Bull’s dual swords formed a triangle? Once the force of the strike is cancelled out, his swords will be there to block the BOSS’s sword.”
“No wonder…” Ming Du nodded as though he really understood everything.
Indeed, the G.o.d of Puppets’ power was cancelled out. Even though his strike was powerful, w.a.n.g Yu jumped in the direction of his strike which would cancel out a large portion of the force. w.a.n.g Yu’s dual swords formed a triangular point which would effectively block out the G.o.d of Puppets’ blade. By doing so, he had turned himself into part of the sword.
If w.a.n.g Yu was a housefly and the G.o.d of Puppets’ sword was the flyswatter, there would be a huge difference in consequences between successfully hitting the housefly and having the housefly crawling on the flyswatter.
At the thought of this, what they had just witnessed was far more terrifying than they initially thought.
At the instant w.a.n.g Yu exchanged blows with the BOSS, he managed to jump back to cancel out the force of the strike and simultaneously making himself a part of the sword. This high level of movements was not something easily executed even if they were told what to do. The growing difference in strength between w.a.n.g Yu and the rest of them was truly depressing.
“Since Old Bull is able to hold back the BOSS, should we help to attack?” Ling Longmeng took aim at the G.o.d of Puppets as she asked.
Spring Halo waved his hand hurriedly, “Let’s not do anything for now. Old Bull has his own tempo now so if we attack now, we will be disrupting him and this will be adding trouble instead of helping him. Given Old Bull’s temper, he will definitely call out for us if he needs our help to attack.”
Indeed, w.a.n.g Yu’s monster fighting tempo and methods were far too complex for ordinary players to comprehend. Therefore, while fighting alongside w.a.n.g Yu, the rest of them knew that they shouldn’t intervene from the start. w.a.n.g Yu would shout for their help when he realised that he was in complete control of the situation.
Stamina was not part of the game so even though cancelling out the G.o.d of Puppets’ strikes was extremely exhausting, his stamina would not deplete at all. Round after round, w.a.n.g Yu was attacking the G.o.d of Puppets’ with increasing ease. In fact, he was even starting to get bored.
However, he had no choice because the G.o.d of Puppets’ health bar was simply too long. [Hinder Strikeback] was considered a pa.s.sive skill which required the BOSS to attack before succeeding.
Even after half a day, the G.o.d of Puppets’ health bar merely decreased by 5%. w.a.n.g Yu was really starting to bore himself out. If the person fighting the BOSS was getting bored, the people watching him fight the BOSS were naturally even more bored. This was the painful part of fighting a brainless BOSS with such a long health bar.
“F*ck! I can’t take it anymore. How long is w.a.n.g Yu going to take down this large-scale dungeon BOSS?” Ling Longmeng looked at the time and then looked at the BOSS’s health before complaining.
The rest of them kept quiet as they turned to look at Spring Halo.
Ling Longmeng was right because the health of a BOSS of this scale was an astronomy digit. With w.a.n.g Yu’s current tempo and rate of fighting, this was taking too long. Moreover, everyone came to play the game so there was no point in letting w.a.n.g Yu do everything himself.
Spring Halo shook his head helplessly, “We cannot be of much help at all. Old Bull had finally caught hold of the tempo and if we were to disrupt his tempo, wouldn’t we be adding trouble to him?”
“What do you know!” Ling Longmeng rolled his eyes at Spring Halo.
Spring Halo might be comparatively respected in the eyes of the members of the Quan Zhen Sect. However, his words were not worth anything to Ling Longmeng. She pointed her middle finger at Spring Halo as she raised her bow to shoot at the G.o.d of Puppets’ leg…
[Shadow Binding Arrow]’s effects to the G.o.d of Puppets were not significant at all. The G.o.d of Puppets’ paused for a while as it didn’t even bother looking at Ling Longmeng.
While this pause seemed insignificant, it was devastating to w.a.n.g Yu. After fighting the G.o.d of Puppets for such a long time, w.a.n.g Yu entered a mechanical routine. The slightest of pause caused w.a.n.g Yu to jump up slightly earlier than usual…
Because of the disrupted tempo, w.a.n.g Yu’s swords were slightly off the centre of the BOSS’s strike.
“Bang!”
The G.o.d of Puppets’ sword slashed his waist and w.a.n.g Yu was sent flying like a baseball.
