Chapter 943 - For Glory
Li Yi took the risk of changing his class to Blademaster. Fortunately, Li Yi succeeded.
His class as a Sharpshooter remained and the Blademaster class went just as he wished. It had turned into Beast Soul’s Possession — Six-armed Macaque’s Additional Quality.
Li Yi fully activated his Level 19 Chrono Territory, causing the Weapon Warrior’s movement and Abyss-ripping Windstorm to slow down.
Whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh…
The sharp blade aura raged within the Abyss-ripping Windstorm. As the Weapon Warrior’s ultimate skill, it covered a huge area and was on par with the Archer’s True Overlord Arrow. The only difference between the two skills was that True Overlord Arrow affected what was in front of the player whereas the Abyss-ripping Windstorm affected a certain area.
Numbers kept appearing above Li Yi’s head as he was attacked by the Abyss-ripping Windstorm. However, as his Chrono territory kept spreading out, the Weapon Warrior’s rotational speed was gradually reduced.
Whoosh whoosh whoosh.
When the Weapon Warrior’s body was coming to a near stop, Li Yi regained his freedom, aimed at him, and cast Shooting Star Arrow.
Twang twang twang twang twang twang twang…
The Abyss-ripping Windstorm came to a complete stop. Numbers that were densely packed appeared above the Weapon Warrior’s head as his HP dropped drastically…
“Hehe…”
All the Weapon Warrior did was giving off two strange scoffs as he was under Li Yi’s furious attacks. His body popped like a balloon and instantly disappeared.
System Notification: You’ve left the battle.
Li Yi was surprised. “Has he escaped?”
What was that skill? A special skill?
Li Yi pondered for a moment before he sent a message to Shen Lang.
“Help me check out what Tyrant Sword King the Fifth is up to lately.”
The Weapon Warrior who had just escaped looked extremely similar to Tyrant Sword King the Fifth, be it appearance or the skills used. Furthermore, would it be a nobody that was able to climb up the top of the Pantheon Rankings in such a short time?
Li Yi really could not think of anyone who was able to do this other than Tyrant Sword King the Fifth.
“I’ll give you an answer by tonight!” Shen Yang replied briefly.
Li Yi was slightly satisfied as he regained his number one spot in the Pantheon Rankings. Players must realize that their rankings would affect the Title of God they would obtain and the difference between number three and number one was heaven’s apart.
Although the Title of God was recognized as the most useless title by the players, only a hundred people out of a few billion players would be able to get them. Hence, it was absolutely a supreme honor for these players.
Li Yi returned back to Mount Pantheon and obtained another kill order.
“Teleport!”
At the North Pole Icefield, Li Yi saw his challenger, Fluttering Snow Purple Water Chestnut.
It was normal for him to match against Fluttering Snow Purple Water Chestnut. After all, her ranking was very close to Li Yi’s and it was normal that the kill order was placed on her head.
“I cannot lose this!”
Fluttering Snow Purple Water Chestnut screamed as golden aura started covering her.
Although she had always been oppressed by Li Yi, she had never admitted defeat at all. Every time she was defeated, she would work even harder and her strength had been increasing steadily.
Psychokinetic Orbs were revolving around Fluttering Snow Purple Water Chestnut. She screamed as her body turned into a golden beam as she charged towards Li Yi.
“True — Fist of The Raging Overlord!”
Li Yi smiled as he stood there and received the punch without moving at all.
-2,331,361
The red text appeared above Li Yi’s head as he was killed by Fluttering Snow Purple Water Chestnut in one hit…
Thud!
Li Yi smiled as he fell to the ground.
Fluttering Snow Purple Water Chestnut was stunned as she looked at his corpse. Her nose wrinkled as she almost burst into tears.
She had been battling with Li Yi for so many years and this was her first time realizing just how good it felt to win against him.
“I told you. I cannot lose this!”
Fluttering Snow Purple Water Chestnut told Li Yi as she vanished.
“Hey hey…”
When Li Yi stood back up, all he saw was white snow around him and Fluttering Snow Purple Water Chestnut was nowhere to be seen.
The girl had disappeared way too quickly…
Li Yi was utterly speechless.
He had failed the kill order challenge, but his ranking did not drop and remain at number one. However, the second-ranked Weapon Warrior had been overtaken by Fluttering Snow Purple Water Chestnut and was now in the third place.
Li Yi was furious. “D*mn you Lil Chili. Can you let me go now?”
He had no intention of letting Fluttering Snow Purple Water Chestnut have the upper hand earlier. It was just that Jiaojiao had run into his room and rode him when Fluttering Snow Purple Water Chestnut was attacking him, causing him to lose connection from the game.
He was already dead and Fluttering Snow Purple Water Chestnut had run away by the time he reconnected back into the game.
If it was a normal battle, he would not have lost this badly even if he could not win against Fluttering Snow Purple Water Chestnut.
He was utterly speechless since he was killed in one move.
When players died in a kill order battle, they would not drop any equipment nor EXP. the only thing that was affected was a slight reduction in the equipment durability.
Li Yi returned to Starting Point City to repair his equipment.
He checked the God Wars Ranking Points and found out that he was only 10 points higher than Fluttering Snow Purple Water Chestnut and 15 points higher than the Weapon Warrior. The difference was too small, and it was risky for him.
Li Y wanted to obtain another killing order and by the time he returned to Mount Pantheon, he received a message from Chen Yang.
“Brother Yi, Moonlight has spawned!”
Li Yi was energized. “I’ll head over there now!”
“Lil Chili, get your *ss back into the game!”
“Hmm… Hmm…”
Chen Yang and Brother Windcloud Nine announced their King’s Order simultaneously underneath Sky Island as they gathered everyone to kill the Winged Ruler Moonlight.
The Winged Ruler Moonlight was much stronger than the Winged Ruler’s Spirit in the dungeon. A kill would not be guaranteed even if there were tens of millions of players surrounding it. This level of power had far surpassed any other World Boss.
It would be impossible to try to kill the Winged Ruler alone because Moonlight would cast dozens of one-hit KO skill which would neglect the player’s HP in the early stage. It was necessary to fight in large numbers in the beginning, but powerful players could have the chance to challenge it alone later as Moonlight would no longer use any one-hit KO skills.
“Brothers from the Savage Continent and the Ninth Continent, remember to add yourself into the group. Please click on the names Tall and Mighty and Brother Windcloud Nine and you’ll automatically be added in. Please select party for the attacking mode. Thank you for your cooperation!”
“Brothers, let’s go. For our achievements, our titles, our glories!”
Millions of players rushed towards Sky Island from all directions as they cried out their motto.
When the Winged Ruler Moonlight appeared, it jolted its wings as a few ten thousand players fell from the sky.
There was an 80% chance that players would be killed Moonlight at the beginning of the battle. Essentially, whoever was on the front line would die.
However, death was not much of a bad thing for these players because they would obtain an Achievement called ‘Grieving Soul under the Moonlight’ when they were killed by Moonlight. Their stats would increase by 3.
In order to obtain this Achievement, even Li Yi was willing to charge in the front line and die at least once.
It would be impossible to not excite players in the beginning of the battle. As leaders, Chen Yang and Brother Windcloud Nine charged in bravely and their number of deaths were multiples higher than the average players.
Li Yi’s death count was not low as well, but he was not at a huge loss as he had the Sacramental Stone.
The sky was covered in feather arrows as players died in waves. When a bunch of them had flown up, a bunch of them had been pushed down. The Winged Ruler Moonlight was the closest thing to a god in the early stage of the fight.
More than half of the players had died by the time Moonlight’s HP had dropped down to 50% as its attacks started to slow down.
However, there were still too few players that could withstand its attack. One of its casual arrows could kill thousands of players in an instant. It would not be an exaggeration to say that millions of players would perish if it were to cast its ultimate skill.
Li Yi activated God Mode as he brought along his legendary pet, Dolly, to find an opportunity to strike in the sky.
Moonlight’s ATK was incredibly high. If Li Yi were to become its target, he might not be able to defend against it even if he had the entire Glory Equipment Set. He would at most be able to take three hits before he inevitably died.
As Moonlight’s HP drained constantly and was about to turn into an egg, Li Yi landed discreetly as he turned into Lightning Leopard and snuck underneath Moonlight.
It would be impossible to kill Moonlight when it turned into an egg unless players attacked its weak point which was down below.
This time, Li Yi had made preparation beforehand.
Whoosh!
As Li Yi moved forward, Moonlight had turned into the golden egg.
Li Yi leaped to the front of the golden egg without any difficulty as he took out his claws and started digging into it.
The Golden Egg’s weak spot was underneath it. All he needed to do was to claw it gently when he spotted it and Moonlight would perish.
Kaboom! Kaboom!
As Li Yi was digging his way in, his surroundings exploded causing the golden egg to tilt.
Li Yi spotted a petite Vagabond among the thick smoke rushing into the golden egg.
‘Hey~’
‘Are you here to steal the boss again?’
“Divine Thunder Spell!”
Li Yi raised his head up and screamed as thousands of lightning bolts fell from heaven, striking the ground chaotically…
Crack! Crack! Crack! Crack! Crack!
The divine thunder that was as thick as a bucket attacked indiscriminately. Anyone other than the caster would be struck if they were to get close to where the divine thunder was cast.
The Vagabond that wanted to kill steal the boss again did not expect that Li Yi was waiting for him. As thousands of lightning bolts struck the earth, he had no choice but to clap his hands. A black smokescreen appeared as he escaped.
Li Yi walked forward as he reached out his claws and scratched gently at the giant golden egg’s weak spot.
The golden egg started cracking as a few purple lights shone in all directions.
Li Yi ignored the equipment and only picked up the Moonlight’s Feather.
“Fatty, Brother Nine, bring someone to pick up the equipment. I’m heading out.”
Li Yi did not wait for the main party to arrive as he waved his hand and returned back to the Starting Point City.
All he lacked was the Moonlight’s Feather before he completed the Evil God Summoning Scroll. All he could feel right then was eagerness.
“Boss, I’ve done my research. Tyrant Sword King the Fifth is still serving his sentence but his condition isn’t that good. He has suffered quite a bit in there and his intellect has degraded significantly.”
Shen Lang sent a close-up picture of Tyrant Sword King the Fifth. He was as thin as a post and Tyrant Sword King the Fifth looked rather retarded in it…
“Thanks…”
Li Yi responded back to Shen Lang as he held onto the Moonlight’s Feather tightly in his hand and frowned.
If the Weapon Warrior was not Tyrant Sword King the Fifth, who could he be?
Li Yi’s hands were glowing red as he pondered while refining the Moonlight’s Feather.
The Winged Ruler Moonlight had dropped a total of five purple equipment. The most valuable of them was a staff called Soul Admire. It was the ultimate weapon for the Wizard class and Brother Windcloud Nine had asked for the Soul Admire staff so that he could give it to Sister Windcloud Nine.
The remaining four pieces of equipment were all auctioned and the money had been stored in the two nations’ National Treasury.
As Li Yi was refining the Moonlight’s Feather, he placed the video he recorded on repeat. By the time he finished refining the Moonlight’s Feather, he had also figured out the identity of the Vagabond who tried to steal the boss away from him.
It was you – Ghostly Walker!
