Chapter 367 - 367 Taking a Break Midway
367 Taking a Break Midway
Suddenly, someone in the crowd let out a scream.
“AHH!”
Everyone looked in the direction of the sound and saw a player suddenly turn into a light spot and dissipate.
“Eh? What was going on? Why did he suddenly die?”
“Did the Wind Spirit kill him?”
While they were in shock, the hundreds of people around them suddenly looked pained, as if they had difficulty breathing, their hearts and lungs were failing, or as if their throats were being strangled. Their faces were red, and their mouths were wide open, but they could not say a word.
Some people went up to help, but they also fell into that strange state of pain.
Upon seeing this, the others around him immediately retreated a distance away.
At the same time, Lin Meng and Luo Yuan, who had seen Ling Yi land on the ground, flew over.
“Brother Ling Yi, do you know what’s going on?” Meng Lin asked.
“Yes.”Ling Yi nodded and explained simply, “The Wind Spirit has entered its second form. During this period, it will transform into its wind form that can not be attacked.”
“What!? Then what do we do?”
“Just tell everyone to retreat.”
“Alright,” he said.
Meng Lin immediately took out a megaphone and asked all the players to retreat.
Although the players’ retreat efficiency was extremely high, the Wind Spirit’s second form was too fast, and its killing range was too large. In the end, less than half of the players successfully escaped.
Those who remained naturally became the Wind Spirit’s targets.
Ling Yi, who was the closest to the center, was the first to bear the brunt.
In an instant, he felt the air around him suddenly disappear, and an external pressure pressed on him from all directions as if trying to compress him into a ball.
This pressure was fatal to most players, but to Ling Yi, it was as if he was in a slightly crowded crowd. It was a squeeze, but it was far from fatal.
After being in a stalemate with the Wind Spirit for several minutes, the Wind Spirit’s life force was finally exhausted.
Bang! Bang!
A soft sound came from above Ling Yi.
Immediately after, a large number of white spots of light suddenly appeared in the sky dozens of meters above him.
They slowly floated towards the sky and gradually faded away as they flew.
Seeing this scene, the players all relaxed.
“We passed the 18th checkpoint on the same day! This is great!”
“That was fast!”
“It’s mainly because of 01’s help. Otherwise, we would need at least another 20 years!”
Buzzzzzz!
A fiery red figure appeared in front of Ling Yi. The latter didn’t even need to look to know that it was Nangong Li.
“Should we continue?” She asked.
“Mm…”
“Although many people died just now, they will all be revived in a while.” Nangong Li added.
“Then let’s continue.”
Thinking about how Muye had already cleared the 20th checkpoint and was about to face the ultimate map Beast King, Ling Yi didn’t want to dawdle.
Since he had the strength to continue fighting, he might as well fight all the way to the Beast King today.
He told his thoughts to Nangong Li, and the latter was surprised. She nodded her head that reminded Ling Yi of a chick pecking rice, “Okay!”
“That’s right. We’ll fight directly in front of the Beast King. This way, the players of Earth will have a greater sense of danger and will work harder to improve during this time.”
“Then I’ll go and inform everyone!”
As soon as she finished speaking, Luo Yuan, who was resting at the side, suddenly shouted at Ling Yi, “Little Brother, since we’re going straight to the 20th checkpoint, why don’t we take a break here?”
“After fighting two battles in a row, most of us are tired. If we take a short break, not only will everyone’s combat power be higher, but some of the powerhouses in the main world can also rush to join the battlefield in time.”
Luo Yuan felt a little ashamed when he said this.
Clearly, they didn’t put in as much effort as Ling YI, but they were the ones who suggested resting.
Ling Yi didn’t hesitate. He nodded and smiled. “Even if you didn’t say it, I would have had the same intention.”
“Alright then, I’ll be leaving!” Nangong Li said after the conversation ended.
Then she flew off into the distance with excitement.
After she left, Lin Ying, who was sitting on a rock nearby, couldn’t help but roll her eyes when she heard that they were going to fight again.
As if she had thought of something, she came up to him with a smile.
“Boss, clearing the 20 checkpoints on the main road is a big deal for all players on Earth! Any player would want to personally witness it, right?”
“Probably,”
“Aren’t you going to ask your clan to join?”
Then Ling Yi heard a clicking noise.
Immediately after, an information interface appeared before his eyes.
[Lin Xiaorou: I heard that you want to clear all 20 checkpoints in one go?]
[01: …. Why are you so well-informed…]
[Lin Xiaorou: Luo Yao was chatting with me the whole time. She told me.]
‘Good Lord, she can still chat freely after the fusion. They’re being a little too comfortable with each other.’
Ling Yi touched his chin and thought, ‘Isn’t this just a Gundam created by a few people?’
[Lin Xiaorou: I’ll go too. It’s the final stop on the main road. It’ll be a pity if I don’t see it.]
[01: Come.]
As she closed the panel, Lin Ying took out three wooden chairs. She sat on one and patted the one next to her with her fair hand. She smiled at him, “Sit down! Sit down!”
“You knew she was coming?”
“Of course. After fusing with me, we all share the same thought. We all know what each other is thinking.”
Ling Yi sat down naturally. It was then that he realized that the two of them were a little too close to each other. If he moved his thigh slightly, he could touch her thigh.
He tilted his head and looked at the beautiful woman beside him who was grinning at him, but he didn’t say anything.
He opened his backpack and roughly scanned through the Skills he had obtained from killing the two leader monsters.
[Thunder Spirit drops: 8-star [Gold-Crushing Wild Thunder fist], 10-star [World-Ending Thunder], 8-star [Spark Lightning].]
[Wind Spirit drops: 10-star “[Wind-Returning Hell].]
The Wind Spirit was exhausted to death by its own Skill, so it wasn’t considered Ling Yi’s kill. The [Probability Reversal] Skill couldn’t be triggered, so it only dropped one Skill.
When the orange Skill crystal fell from the sky, many people saw it. However, everyone tacitly did not snatch it but consciously gave it to him.
[Wild Thunder Gold-Crushing Fist (8 stars)]: A fist wrapped in electricity to increase his power. (Brief Description)
[Lightning Apocalypse (10-star)]: Sends down a pillar of lightning that deals a large amount of continuous damage to a certain area. (Brief Description)
[Spark Lightning (8 stars)]: it can consume Yang energy to create sparks and lightning. When it hits a target, it will cause at least a small amount of yang attribute damage.
(Spark Lightning + Ultimate Energy → Ultimate Spark Lightning)
[Returning Wind From Hell (10 star) (Passive)]: It will be triggered when the user’s health is below 10%…
Before he could finish reading, someone patted his shoulder.
He turned around and saw Lin Shurou, who was wearing a white robe, squatting behind him.
“You’re here?”
“En!”
Lin Shurou nodded her head vigorously and sat down on the empty stool on the other side.
“What were you doing just now? You’re so focused.”
“I’m looking at my Skills.”
Hearing this, Lin Shurou immediately leaned in. “By the way, did you get Wind Spirit’s last Skill?”
The warm fragrance sprayed onto Ling Yi’s face. The fragrance was like an orchid and musky, intoxicating him.
“The one where the Wind Spirit disappeared?”
“That’s right, that Skill is so powerful. It can kill so many people under the eyes of a strong person like you, and you can’t do anything about it. That’s why when Yunji saw it just now, she really wanted this Skill.”
Lin Shurou’s eyes widened when she mentioned the Skill, and her beautiful face revealed a rare touch of cuteness.
