MMO: Pierce Heaven Til’ It Breaks

Two days later, Li Yi saw Scumbag Wang around Starting Point City. Next to him still were his eight hundred Huashan men. Only, this group of people were not their usual playful selves. Instead, they gathered together in farming wild monsters with dulled expressions.

They were farming.

Li Yi went up to tease them, “Leader Scum, did you find your Hua Hua the other day?”

“Uh huh…”

Scumbag Wang did not even bother lifting his head as he clenched tight on his one-handed sword to slice the monsters.

Huh?

Li Yi was piqued by curiosity. If it were before, Scumbag Wang would go on about Hua Feihua’s white ass with darted eyes.

What was up with today? This guy seemed to be downcast.

Huashan Sect’s overall ability may not be not high but they triumphed in numbers, enough to kill wild monsters between Level 130 – 150. However, these were not easy kills as they would still die facing a horde.

During the period when Li Yi became a spectator, Scumbag Wang collapsed three times. Though, Leader Scum advanced bravely, continuing the battle when it was reeled back in.

How odd, how unusual.

…

Li Yi watched Huashan level up for a while before returning to Starting Point City.

He was concerned that Huashan might be stirring trouble out there and that it would affect his business, but now it seemed that was not the case. Huashan’s purpose to come here was simple. They were here to farm.

Today, another five joined Starting Point City.

The Xu sisters arrived, so did Li Yi’s former teacher, Miss Zhang Yan, also known as Girl without Underwear and the long-absent Lolita twins, the Wutong sisters.

These five individuals were not taken in by Li Yi. It was the work of Queen Jiao and Qian’er.

The Xu sisters were still living downstairs of Li Yi’s. Li Yi was jealous of their relationship with Qian’er.

The trio often slept together and at times would burst out in giggles. Li Yi could hear all that from upstairs.

Could it be that they too were potentially lesbian? a lesbian threesome…

Underwear Girl was best friends with Jiaojiao. Oh, how fate brought them all together. In real life, Li Yi was Zhang Yuan’s student while Zhang Yuan signed up to Jiaojiao’s women’s self defense class and became Jiaojiao’s student. Jiaojiao mentioned that Zhang Yuan had quick comprehension and reflexes. She was the student she was most proud of.

As for the Lolita twins, the Wutong sisters, they have not been online due to their studies. Appearing online now, they realized the guild was no more, so was Guild Master. They then contacted Jiaojiao and here they were.

The two Lolita’s just joined Starting Point City and chatted with Li Yi for a bit before logging off.

They still did not have much time for games, and their participation in Starting Point City was only by name. They were pretty similar to the celebrity sisters at this point.

“Li Yi, I want to be captain of the soldiers!” Zhang Yuan ordered Li Yi with a certain air of a superior educator.

During his days in school, Li Yi had been ordered many times by Zhang Yuan, and as time went by, Zhang Yuan subconsciously felt that ordering Li Yi was a natural thing to do.

“No problem.”

Li Yi readily agreed and posted Zhang Yuan an official position. Her title was idiot Guard Captain of Starting Point City.

Zhang Yuan stomped her foot out of frustration, “You… You… You…”

Li Yi held the highest authority in Starting Point City and for Zhang Yuan to put her teachers’ superiority on him would put her in a disadvantageous spot.

The person with the highest capability in all of Starting Point City was undoubtedly, Li Yi, followed by Sister Cat, Jiaojiao, Qian’er, Little Elf, and Pale Blue Elegance. The weakest, excluding the Wutong sisters was Miss Zhang Yuan cushioning the bottom.

Her level wasn’t terrible at Level 180, but her equipment on the other hand, was subpar. The current public trend was players wearing Ancient Kings or Foreignland Equipment Sets yet she was still in a body of Light Equipment Set.

“Underwear Girl, what level is your weapon?”

“Call me teacher!”

“Teacher Underwear…”

“You… Fine, I’m not going to argue with you. I’m still your teacher anyway, how can I be angry with a student? Humph, I’m not angry!

“Level 150 Gold Quality Berserk Blade. What? Jealous? Believe me when I say I’ll kill you with one slice.”

Li Yi examined and checked out Zhang Yuan’s equipment before shaking his head. He then called Jiaojiao over.

“What? What?”

“Teach your student a lesson.”

Jiaojiao swung her greatsword and with a slash, Girl without Underwear lay flat on the ground.

“Equipment, not good enough. Level, not good enough. Awareness, not good enough. Technique, horrible. You can’t do anything right, what would that make of you in the future? The way I see it, you’re just another member of the dregs to society.

Zhang Yuan stood up from the ground with reddened eyes. The current her was like a student filled with grievance.

“Go go go, step aside.”

Sensing the situation getting out of hand, Jiaojiao pushed Li Yi away. She quickly carried herself as a teacher to calm Zhang Yuan down.

…

Li Yi teleported to the entrance of the Tower of Remorse and retrieved his friend Summoning tool. Ding ding clang clang! A group of women at Starting Point City were dragged over by him.

Li Yi never gave up on seeking God-queen Carulla. Only, he was out of luck with clues after searching for so long. If this was dragged on any longer, the cool down period on Tower of Remorse would come to waste. So he wanted to take one more hit on the Tower of Remorse and finish up the cool down period before going in search for Carulla.

The party setting was the same as before, Li Yi opted random players to fill up the numbers in the party.

“Let’s go!”

Still leaving no instruction before battle, Li Yi took large strides into the first floor of Tower of Remorse.

At the start of the battle, Li Yi realized the random players he partied this time were stronger than the previous party. The first floor skeletons were cleared in just 3 minutes, shaving half the time compared to before.

In breaking Tower of Remorse’s record, should two parties be on the same floor, then time would be taken into account. The team with the shortest time would take first place.

Luck was on his side this time around as the party sifted through eight checkpoints yet did not bump into the gear stage.

At the ninth stage, the difficulty level began to rise.

With white mist covering their vision, an innumerable amount of huge treasure chests indistinctly emerged before them. The ground beneath their feet were made from colorful bricks.

This was almost a copy to Demon God Castle’s spiraling corridor mechanism. However, compared to the spiraling corridor, the mechanism here was more complicated with unknown dangers lurking.

The Tower of Remorse was an inconceivable maze and the techniques to all its mechanism were completely random.

“F*ck me, what’s up ahead?”

As the party stood on the bricks for closer inspection, The Cat that Sings pointed straight ahead and shouted.

Beyond the heavy mist, in a distance no more than ten meters, was an open treasure chest with three scrolls erected within it. The writing on them was apparent.

“Fire God Summon… Water God Summon… Wind God Summon…”

These three scrolls were King of Pantheon’s most valuable God Summoning Scrolls.

One scroll was enough to destroy a country. Every player was aware the forces of this thing.

“Mine!”

A main tank Warrior’s eyes lit up as he took quick paces to the front.

The Cat that Sings ran her mouth, “Shithead, what are you doing?”

Tst tst —

Rumble rumble!

The main tank Warrior only took three steps when a red shot of lightning descended from the sky to electrocute him to ashes.

With booby traps spread out everywhere, making hasty moves would only result in fatality.

The Cat that Sings turned to give Li Yi the middle finger, “F*ck, what kind of trash did you party with?”

Feeling helpless at the situation, Li Yi opened the party members panel and kicked the idiot main tank Warrior who died out.

Although he died, if he was not kicked out of the party, he still would have to suffer a 50% EXP penalty. Li Yi would not kick a dead party member under normal circumstances but this was all his own doing so he had only himself to blame.

“Motherf*cker, Dark Wing, why did you kick me? Because I died? You think you’re all that after becoming famous?”

The main tank Warrior started to curse in the Regional Channel.

No matter if one was kicked out, willingly quit the party or logged off midway, they were considered forgoing the challenge and wasting the cool down period.

Due to the long progress in the Tower of Remorse, party leaders had the power to save ten times. Party leaders could save at any floor and only during then, the party would be temporarily disbanded until the party leader loaded the saved record the next time. As long as they were online, no matter their location, they would be teleported to the saved floor.

With the main tank Warrior kicked out, his Tower of Remorse dungeon cool down period became a waste. Not only was he banned from joining other parties, even if Li Yi were to add him, he could not be reeled back in.

His cool down period was locked, and to challenge again, he had to either bribe the red-robed guardian or wait for the dungeon to reset.

“What an arrogant prick, twisting the truth. I’m gonna head out and f*ck him over.”

Li Yi was not the least bit bothered by the main tank Warrior’s verbal abuse but The Cat that Sings was not having it. She would not take it sitting down once her blood was boiling.

Li Yi answered nonchalantly, “If you dare to quit the party, I’m not going to add you the next time!”

The Cat that Sings responded with the middle finger, “F*ck!”

Li Yi had witnessed this sort of thing happened one too many times. If he did not have magnanimity, what right did he possessed to be called the Continent’s Number One Archer God?

He had to face many people running their mouths at him every day in the World Channel and if he were to act like Sister Cat and quarrel back, he would not have time to do anything, as killing these foul-mouthed b*tches would take up all of his time.

Li Yi muted the Regional Channel so that the party members were not affected by the abuse. He ordered, “Split into three teams. main tanks in the first team, DPS in the second and third, healers. Let’s probe team by team.”

With little knowledge on the mechanics of the dungeon, they could only run experiments to check.

In King of Pantheon, there would always be a certain rule to any mechanic, such as the arrangement of colors. If one course was ran smoothly, then the next course would be another repeated cycle. The only difference might be that the cycle would be in reverse.

With five main tanks on the move, they walked towards five bricks of different colors.

With four strikes of thunder, the four main tanks were electrocuted to ashes, leaving one man standing.
