(Between you and me, this chapter isn’t short at all, so stop saying the author writes short chapters!)
(I checked out the title suggestions everyone gave yesterday, and they’re all pretty good. Thanks for the support!)
Bang!
With an explosion, the fierce wind ruffled Ye Shuangluo’s hair.
“Failed again?”
His attempt to develop his abilities had failed once more, and he decided to pause his efforts for now.
He had hit a bottleneck, one that couldn’t be overcome by sheer hard work. He needed a flash of inspiration and a sudden opportunity.
Thinking of this, he suddenly realized he hadn’t checked the score in a while.
[Current score: Black vs. White (86:92)]
The scores were neck and neck. Ye Shuangluo opened the battle record panel.
Then he discovered something astonishing: the “King” on the black side hadn’t died once since the battle began.
[Time remaining: 38 minutes and 36 seconds]
In the camp channel, Chris had been cursing like a madwoman for an hour.
Her target, of course, was Ye Shuangluo, who insisted on staying out of the fight.
He could understand her frustration. After all, according to the battle record, she had died 15 times, contributing 30 points to the enemy.
Her mindset must be shattered.
Time was running out. Ye Shuangluo picked up the Red Flame Fang Type III, recalled Silver, and went to join the main force.
…
“You deadweight! If it weren’t for you, how could we be fighting four against five?”
As soon as Chris revived, she opened the camp channel and started cursing.
At first, Chaos tried to stop her, urging her not to destroy team unity.
But now… he chose to watch coldly, as he was also dissatisfied with Ye Shuangluo’s actions.
He remembered his original words were to hide and look for opportunities to take potshots, not to disappear completely!
Miyamoto Lan, the old uncle, remained steady, staring at the voluptuous Chris when not in battle.
Once the fight began, he focused entirely on attacking the enemy’s female support, becoming the team’s second-highest damage dealer.
As for the socially anxious Sun Tian, he stuck to Chaos’s side, allowing Chaos to barely handle three opponents at once.
“Surrender, and you might die a few less times.”
As the group rested, a familiar voice suddenly echoed from the sky.
The four of them looked up in disbelief, seeing the five enemies standing on a hill, looking down at them.
They were trapped at the respawn point.
Chaos was the first to react, shouting:
“Prepare to engage.”
He then picked up his greatsword and charged forward, creating opportunities for Sun Tian and Chris to assist and cast spells.
Miyamoto Lan, as always, lunged at the enemy’s female support.
“Hey, little beauty, come let uncle hug you.”
The female support in blue light armor looked at him with disdain, casting numerous debuffs as if they were free.
“Get lost, you old pervert.”
The teammate protecting the female support, wielding a shield in one hand and an axe in the other, charged at Miyamoto Lan, who was covered in debuffs.
Since Miyamoto Lan kept focusing on the female support, they had clashed five or six times already.
On the other side, Chaos, with several buffs, was holding his ground against three opponents.
Sun Tian, protected at the back, continuously buffed Chaos, while Chris was charging up for a big spell.
“Oh great god of flame and battle, Arnikus, I am your faithful follower and servant. Please unleash your divine power and smite these vile heretics.”
She chanted the lengthy incantation skillfully, golden fireballs the size of human heads forming around her.
The three enemies fighting Chaos exchanged glances, sensing the terrifying energy in the golden fireballs around Chris.
A man in a black mask suddenly took out a jade throwing knife from his space backpack and hurled it at Chris without hesitation.
Chaos tried to block the knife with his body, but it phased through him, piercing Chris’s forehead.
With the caster’s death, the golden fireballs around her exploded.
Sun Tian, seeing the situation turn dire, tried to distance himself, but the explosion’s shockwave nearly drained his health.
He quickly took out health potions from his space backpack, downing five or six bottles to regain his mobility.
On the battlefield, without Chris’s occasional spell interference, Chaos was being heavily suppressed.
If this continued, his defeat was only a matter of time.
Meanwhile, Miyamoto Lan, fighting two opponents, was not faring well either. His attributes were already low, and now he was burdened with debuffs.
Sun Tian watched his struggling teammates, feeling powerless, and closed his eyes in frustration.
“Ah Han, wake up, I need your help.”
“…So noisy, useless brother, you really can’t do anything without me, huh?”
“Sun Tian” suddenly opened his eyes, disdainfully tossing his staff into the space backpack and equipping knuckle dusters.
Bang!
Chaos was knocked back again, blood trickling from the corner of his mouth.
“Sun, what are you doing? Buff me!”
Before he finished speaking, “Sun Tian” had already rushed to his side.
Chaos urged:
“Why are you here? It’s dangerous, go to the back.”
But “Sun Tian” ignored him, charging at an enemy player wielding a long staff.
Facing the “support” who came to him, the staff player enchanted his weapon and swung it at “Sun Tian’s” head.
“Sun Tian” tilted his head slightly to dodge, letting the staff hit his shoulder.
“Didn’t you eat?”
His left fist, glowing blue, punched the staff player’s abdomen.
Bang!
The staff player was knocked back three meters, and “Sun Tian” gave him no chance to retreat, engaging in close combat.
Whoosh whoosh whoosh!
In close quarters, the staff player had to abandon his weapon, opting for hand-to-hand combat.
“Sun Tian” displayed his madness in battle, showing no intention of defending, and his attack speed far exceeded his opponent’s.
Just as he was about to punch the enemy’s head off, a bullet precisely pierced his heart.
The shot came from the black side’s “King.” Without Sun Tian’s buffs, Chaos was no match for him and another player, and was sent to the afterlife.
“Die!”
The pain of having his heart shot out sent “Sun Tian” into a berserk state, his knuckle dusters now glowing with a dangerous red light.
Bang!
With his last ounce of strength, he punched the staff player’s head off.
Meanwhile, with Chaos’s death, Miyamoto Lan’s attributes dropped, and he was soon found by the enemy, who smashed his head with a shield.
As they thought the battle was over and began to relax, a lurking tiger silently revealed its fangs.
Bang bang bang!
With three gunshots, three black side players were shot in the head and killed.
The black side’s “King” widened his eyes in disbelief, not expecting the white side’s “pawn” to make a move at such a time.
Just then, the four recently killed members suddenly emitted a blinding white light.
At the same time, the little wooden puppet hanging from the black side “King’s” waist began to burn.
[Competitive Item: Substitute Puppet]
[Effect: When more than half of your team dies simultaneously within one minute, this item activates, reviving all fallen teammates.]
[Condition: This item can only be used when your team has no more than ten members and at least one survivor.]
[Evaluation: Surprised? I have a revival item.]
Ye Shuangluo watched with interest as the four revived members returned to full strength.
They truly lived up to their reputation as invaders, thoroughly prepared before the invasion.
The black side was now at full strength, while Ye Shuangluo was alone, seemingly at a disadvantage.
The black side’s “King” looked at the boy in the distance with pity, saying condescendingly:
“I must admit, you’re a competent sniper. Even after witnessing your teammates’ deaths, you didn’t act rashly but waited for the right moment.
You’re a worthy opponent. End it yourself; I don’t want to kill you.”
…
With their respawn point occupied, the white side players revived at the black side’s respawn point.
[101:114]
This was the score difference, and there were less than two minutes left in the battle.
“It’s over, all over.”
Chris sat on the ground, her face filled with despair.
Seeing her like this, Miyamoto Lan felt a stir in his heart and approached, saying:
“Chris, since we’re all about to die, why not do something fun?”
He began to undo his belt, and Chris, after a moment of silence, nodded.
“…You’re right.”
Miyamoto Lan was delighted, ready to embrace the beauty, only to see Chris grab Sun Tian by the collar, pin him down, and start kissing him forcefully.
“Mm.”
Sun Tian struggled, but he was not “little brother” Sun Han, and his strength attribute was far lower than Chris’s.
His pants were forcibly pulled down, and his shirt had long been burned to ashes by Chris.
He seemed like a helpless little lamb, while Chris was the big bad wolf ready to devour him.
Just as the big bad wolf was about to go further, the system’s broadcast suddenly echoed from the sky.
[Double kill (White side “pawn” kills black side “pawn” and “cannon”)]
[Triple kill (White side “pawn” kills black side “rook”)]
[Quadra Kill (White side “pawn” kills black side “knight”)]
[Penta Kill (White side “pawn” kills black side “King”)]
Sun Tian, Chris, and Chaos were all stunned. Did they just hear something unbelievable?
…
[Due to the death of your “King,” all attributes -5, and two skills stripped.]
Ye Shuangluo stood calmly, unfazed by the system’s penalty notification.
After all, before joining the battle, he had secretly swapped Xiao Shan’s soul from “Ghost Legion Commander” to “Breaker Star Fate Master.”
Thus, he could ignore this debuff.
“Silver.”
Since he was going to fight, Ye Shuangluo naturally called out his top aide.
The black side’s “King” frowned at the powerful aura emanating from Silver.
“A summoner, huh? A sniper with a summoned beast for protection, that’s still…”
Before he could finish, he saw the boy across from him leisurely take out a knife from his space backpack.
At the same time, the seemingly harmless boy unleashed an astonishing killing aura.
The killing aura even made the female support at the back turn pale.
The black side’s “King” went from initial disdain to a serious expression.
“…So, you’re the strongest in your team.”
[Asura Demon Eye] activated
[Unbeatable Mystical Body] activated
[Vitality Smoke] activated
With a thought, Ye Shuangluo activated three buff skills.
Due to the [Unbeatable Mystical Body], the blood-red smoke turned golden.
The golden smoke, twenty meters high, enveloped the battlefield, continuously suppressing the enemy.
The suppression affected everyone differently.
For instance, the strongest black side “King” only had his attributes reduced by 2-3 points despite the terrifying suppression.
But the weakest female support was nearly suffocating under the dual pressure of the killing aura and vitality smoke.
Others weren’t suffocating but were still struggling.
“Don’t panic! He’s just one person.”
The black side’s “King” reassured his teammates, cautiously merging his dual axes into a mountain-splitting axe.
Whoosh!
As the battle began, the shield-axe player responsible for protecting the female support activated a skill.
A long, thick chain instantly linked his and Ye Shuangluo’s wrists.
“Come here!”
He roared, using all his strength to pull Ye Shuangluo over.
But the boy stood firm, unmoved, no matter how hard he pulled, like a stone sinking into the sea.
Seeing something was wrong, the black side “King” charged at Ye Shuangluo with his axe.
But Silver wasn’t just for show; he immediately blocked the black side “King’s” path.
The masked player took out a throwing knife, intending to repeat his previous trick.
But as soon as the thought crossed his mind, he felt dizzy.
[Detected intent to attack sl612 player, enemy skill activated, you need to pass a will judgment]
[Judgment… failed]
The player wielding the staff beside him also had a vacant expression.
This was the “Conqueror” at work, easily turning two enemies into useless bystanders.
Ye Shuangluo looked at the chain on his wrist, smiling kindly:
“Is this what you wanted to do?”
With that, he pulled hard, dragging the shield-axe player over.
In the contest of strength, he was no match, his body uncontrollably flying toward Ye Shuangluo.
This was truly a case of playing with fire; his skill didn’t help but was about to get him killed.
Facing the incoming enemy, Ye Shuangluo skillfully added wind and ice elements before slashing.
The shield-axe player adjusted his stance mid-air, raising his shield to block the slash.
Swoosh!
The shield that had withstood countless strikes from Miyamoto Lan was now like paper, sliced through by Ye Shuangluo’s blade, evenly splitting its owner in two.
After slaying the enemy with one strike, Ye Shuangluo didn’t stop, the [Beast Soul] emitting a faint white light.
In the next second, he was engulfed in flames, charging at the two stunned enemies with incredible speed.
Seeing this, the black side “King,” still entangled, shouted:
“Heart! Debuff him, control him, quickly!”
“I… I’ve been trying to control him, but it’s not working.”
The female support’s hands trembled uncontrollably. She was doing her best, but her control skills and debuffs seemed ineffective against the boy.
This was the terrifying resilience of Ye Shuangluo at work.
The negative statuses the female support tried to apply either couldn’t attach at all or vanished within fractions of a second.
Swoosh, swoosh!
Two heads flew high, their expressions still vacant even in death.
“Damn it!”
The black side’s “King” was in a fit of impotent rage, wanting to stop Ye Shuangluo’s slaughter, but this pesky ant kept blocking him.
To be fair, Silver’s strength was far inferior to his, but Silver was relentless, blocking him with reckless abandon.
Swish!
After three teammates fell in succession, the female support, who was utterly countered by Ye Shuangluo in this battle, also met her end.
After slaying the female support with one strike, Ye Shuangluo glanced at Silver, who was battered but still holding the enemy, and praised:
“Well done.”
Then he unhesitatingly ordered the use of [Sacrificial Strike].
Bang!
Silver’s form turned into a stream of light, crashing into the enemy.
The black side’s “King” staggered back two steps, a strange weakness spreading through his body, yet he still roared:
“Come fight me!”
With less than a minute left, he couldn’t believe he couldn’t last even a minute against this boy.
Ye Shuangluo admired his courage and silently activated [Asura Demon Eye: Second Stage].
Swoosh!
With one slash, the black side’s “King” fell, disbelief filling his eyes.
[Slash damage 528 (War God + Master of Weapons) + True damage 300 (Killing Power + Unbeatable Mystical Body + War God) + Elemental damage 1150 (Asura Demon Eye Second Stage + Unbeatable Mystical Body + War God + Spirit Sovereign) + Ice (Wind) Elemental Enchantment damage 217 + Additional damage 439 (Blade of the War God)]
(Bracketed information is invisible to enemy players)
Looking at the barely breathing enemy, Ye Shuangluo sincerely praised:
“Impressive, you’re still alive.”
The black side’s “King,” using an item to cling to life, coughed blood and pleaded:
“Please… cough, our world is already on the brink of destruc—”
Swoosh!
Blood gushed like a fountain from the headless corpse. Ye Shuangluo had no interest in hearing his last words.
After slaying all the enemies, Ye Shuangluo looked at the sky and said softly:
“What a tough battle.”
[Final Score: (116:114)]
[Congratulations to the white side for winning]
