Upon hearing this, Gaoyu looked at the five people in the field, lifted the frame of his glasses, and said, “Do you know who those five people are?”
Ling Yi turned his head and carefully examined the five people’s faces.
The more he looked, the more familiar he felt.
“Uhm… I seem to have seen them from somewhere. Wait–” Then everything suddenly just clicked. “Are they… Dark players?”
A few days ago, Lin Shurou showed him a few community group messages on her phone.
There was some information on the Dark Players’ identity.
It was similar to the people below hunting the Wind God Butterfly.
“Dark player” was a general term for all players who were not righteous.
Or, simply put, “Dark Players” are wanted and illegal players.
Ling Yi wasn’t sure what exactly these people had done, but they were categorized as ‘criminals’ by the law.
Now Gaoyu’s intention seemed to be much more apparent.
‘If I see someone trying to attack someone despicable, why wouldn’t I lend a helping hand?‘
He somewhat understood what Gaoyu meant by “I’m going to run away after I give you your buff”.
When Ling Yi didn’t reply, Gaoyu continued, “They are all Dark Players. I hate them. So, if you really want to deal with them, I can give you a little help.”
So this guy really wanted to help.
He didn’t have any other complicated or harmful intentions toward Ling Yi.
So Ling Yi nodded, “Let’s go,”
A free offered help that could temporarily increase his combat power?
It would be a waste not to take it.
“Alright,” Gaoyu said, determined. Then the other man stretched out his hands and pointed his palms at Ling Yi. “Three-star techniques! speed up blessing.” He said softly.
In an instant, a layer of water blue special effect that looked like the reflection of waves on a deep blue lake under the sun flickered around Ling Yi’s body.
The latter looked at the light that flickered for a moment before gradually disappearing. Ling Yi could not help but smile when he felt his body become lighter.
With his [Eyes of Truth], he could clearly see the effect of this skill.
[Acceleration Blessing (3 Stars)]: Increase the target’s speed by 10% for the next 5 minutes.
It was a relatively average effect, but at least it will last long enough.
“Five-star techniques, Light Shield.” Gaoyu cast a second buff on him.
After the shield skill was used up, Gaoyu turned around and was about to leave, but before he could, Ling Yi quickly asked him a question that was on his mind, “I’m really curious. I can understand why you said the name of the skill, but why do you need to mention the star grade?”
He remembered Zhao Ze shouting his star level out loud when they were fighting against each other. But since he was distracted by other things, he didn’t even get the time to let his head wrap around the entire conversation until the other man left.
Now that Gaoyu mentioned his star level as well, the memories rushed back.
“Um…” Gaoyu’s body froze. He turned around and scratched his face in embarrassment.
“Actually… It doesn’t matter whether I mentioned it or not,” He said, slightly embarrassed, “Usually… When players obtain high star skills, they will shout out the skill’s star level when using them to show off.”
“Don’t you think it’s cool to recite the eight-star techniques and nine-star techniques loudly and enjoy other people’s envious gazes?”
Words escaped his brain at the simple explanation.
He was stunned for a moment, and his mind subconsciously acted out the scene.
“That’s true. It would be cool.” He nodded in agreement.
So it was a matter of showing off.
He thought that saying it out loud would be smoother, but….
“But doesn’t your [Acceleration Blessing] only have three stars? Why say it out loud?”
“Hehe… I’m used to it.”
After watching Gaoyu leave, Ling Yi looked at the fluorescent yellow light elemental shield circulating around his body.
[Shield of Light (5 Stars)]: Creates a shield that can last up to 10 minutes on the target. The shield can offset a certain amount of energy damage. During the shield’s duration, it can slightly speed up the recovery speed of the target’s physical strength. This shield can not be stacked with other shields.
This shield was one of the more common ones.
The effect was average.
“Alright, since I have a boost on acceleration and defense, all I need to worry about is the attack.”
Ling Yi looked down at the five people fighting the Wind God Butterfly. He quickly thinks of a battle tactic.
First of all…
He definitely couldn’t use his [Starfall]; otherwise, the world would immediately know that the mysterious newcomer from District 66 was in Shinxia Qianjiang City.
And since he had registered with the Firefly Branch in Qianjiang City before, it would be easier for them to track him.
Secondly, it would be best not to summon the Ice Queen if possible. If it were absolutely necessary, he would have to dress her up and make sure she didn’t use her frosty mist.
After all, a mist that could freeze anything it touches is a rare skill to have in the world.
Therefore, it was still better not to summon her. The trouble is not worth it.
The only thing left was to use his Elemental Spirit Blade in close combat.
‘I have a light and fire Elemental Spirit Blade. The only ones who have seen it before are Lin Shurou and Zhao Ze.‘
‘He wasn’t worried about Lin Shurou telling anybody about it, and Zhao Ze… Well, the Divine Alliance won’t be resurrecting him any time soon… Which means I can boldly use the Elemental Spirit Blade!‘
The Divine Union released a new announcement over the past two days.
It was said that after a period of experimentation, they found that the punishment of resurrecting the wicked did not have a good deterrent effect on them.
As a result, the Divine Union canceled this measure.
They planned to adopt a more rigorous approach and were still in the discussion stage.
In short, Zhao Ze would not be resurrected by them at all.
He could freely use his dual Elemental Spirit Blade without worrying that people would associate him with the ‘mysterious’ player in District 66!
‘I don’t need to worry about the damage effect of the Elemental Spirit Blade. I already copied the agility attribute from the Ice Queen before I left, so my speed is also guaranteed.‘
‘Then I just need to kill them as fast as possible.‘
The Wind God Butterfly was a unique boss known for its agility.
Its speed was extremely fast.
In order to catch up with it and kill it, he had explicitly duplicated the Ice Queen’s agility before he left for this.
Only, he had never thought that he would use such high agility against the Dark Players first.
After confirming his strategy in his heart, Ling Yi didn’t dawdle any longer and immediately ran towards the valley’s center.
…
The Wind Valley was northeast of the ‘Emerald Forest’ secret realm.
The entire valley was not big, and its area was only about 100,000 square meters.
At the edge of the valley, in addition to some other level 20 or 30 monsters, there were many players who were watching.
They looked at the five people fighting the Wind God Butterfly in the center of the valley hundreds of meters away, with different thoughts running through their minds.
“The Wind God Butterfly’s special skill, Great Storm, is an 8-star rare skill. If those people get their hands on it, Qianjiang City will be in trouble!”
“I can only hope that they didn’t win.” Another player sighed.
“It’s the Wind God Butterfly. I didn’t expect that they would really lure out such a rare boss. We must inform the Divine Alliance branch in Qianjiang City and ask them to send people over!”
The secret realm was an independent space.
If one wanted to contact people outside, they could only do so through the God Path forum’s chat function.
Communication messages from the main world could not be transmitted.
While some people had informed the local Divine Union branches, others had secretly contacted other organizations.
In addition to the 8 Star Skill, Great Storm, the Wind God Butterfly could also drop other high-star skills.
It was no different from finding treasure in the rough to an organization with a large number of top powerhouses.
