Chapter 17 In a Certain Moment, I Seemed to See Two Goddesses of War

The slow attack ended.

The fast-slow combination attack followed.

The fast ones were like startled swans in flight, the slow ones staggered and advanced gradually.

Mò Zhī's defense work was further divided, having to judge which attacks would arrive first.

The coordination of their minds was at its peak!

Even so, at a certain moment, sporadic dark arrows still broke through the defenses.

Game over!

Mò Zhī had lost count of how many times she had been defeated by Ān Dǎyīn!

Fortunately, her fighting spirit was still relatively strong, and the sadness of a story-driven death was masked by the current battle.

"Guys, is this the strength of the slaughter line? It's exhilarating! So exhilarating!"

Mò Zhī's face was filled with fighting spirit; she also needed a high-quality duel to showcase her advantage as a professional player.

"So strong! Even watching this level of attack combination makes my scalp tingle, and Mò Zhī is actually tanking it!"

"With my clumsy hands, I'm sure I could last one round against Sister Yu in this state!"

"At one point, I felt like I was seeing two female warriors!"

"Although the operation difficulty of this level seems to have increased by a notch, seeing Mò Zhī constantly dying and updating her progress, I see a glimmer of hope for clearing it. Is this what a pro player is like?"

...

Clearly, the audience's emotions were also stirred by Mò Zhī.

While most people preferred to watch streamers break down in a display of raw emotion, this kind of spirited battle also created an equally exciting live stream.

For a time, all sorts of gifts and tips flooded the live stream, and upon hearing the gift effects, Mò Zhī's drive grew even stronger!

However, the game's difficulty did not lessen because the player's fighting spirit grew stronger. On the contrary, as Ān Dǎyīn's health decreased, her attack methods became even more ferocious.

The alternation of fast and slow was no longer enough for Mò Zhī, so she decided to introduce high-intensity directional changes!

Among the red, blue, yellow, and green crystal arrows, some golden crystal arrows were mixed in. Just as they were about to reach the red heart, they suddenly veered off, rapidly heading in the opposite direction!

Mò Zhī's CPU workload increased again!

At this point, she needed to judge the attack direction and arrival time, as well as pick out the golden crystal arrows to perform reverse calculations, and then issue commands to her fingers to operate the mouse to block them within a second.

All of this needed to be completed in an instant, and if her CPU lagged even slightly, Mò Zhī would feel like she was surrounded by flying stars, like a swarm of angry bees, with no ability to fight back!

Game over!

The frequency of Mò Zhī's screen going black increased with Ān Dǎyīn's health dropping!

This level of combat demanded extremely high instantaneous coordination between the opponent's brain and eyes. Ordinary players wouldn't even see the golden arrows before their CPUs overloaded.

And this was only the offense when Ān Dǎyīn's health was below half.

Through repeated memorization and intense concentration, Mò Zhī barely managed to hold on until Ān Dǎyīn's health dropped below half.

But upon seeing Ān Dǎyīn's subsequent dazzling ultimate barrage, she wished she could die!

Good heavens, these unregulated spears that almost overflowed the screen were like five hundred enraged wild boars released in a bullfighting arena spanning hundreds of miles.

They sprinted towards the red heart from a hundred meters away, and another group rapidly converged around the red heart, their movements as uniform as instructors during military training.

"Wow!! Is Sister Yu the final boss of the slaughter line? I really can't imagine any NPC's attacks later on surpassing this difficulty."

Mò Zhī couldn't help but complain during the intervals between deaths. It wasn't that she wasn't considering the show's effect; speaking even a word during operations would overload her CPU.

'These attacks seem chaotic but are actually steady and showy. However, it seems some attacks are overlapping.'

'This can no longer be called Sister Yu; she has to be elevated to Mother Yu.'

'Mother Yu? Isn't this Ancestor Yu? To the extent that she beat your mother into not recognizing you!'

'I noticed a detail: every time the little red heart takes damage, it flickers briefly, and it's invincible during this period. The streamer can try this angle.'

...

The role of the audience outside the game became apparent. After multiple deaths, the viewers discovered a detail, and Mò Zhī, with this hint, tried again.

"Hey! It's really like that. Before, the red heart was fixed in one position and not obvious, but now when it moves, you can clearly see it flickering for a fraction of a second. Look."

Mò Zhī deliberately maneuvered the red heart towards the converging spears. Seeing her HP drop while the red heart flickered briefly, she exclaimed excitedly:

"It really works! Wow! You guys are amazing!"

"Is this the advantage of a bystander's clear perspective?"

After the excitement, Mò Zhī became melancholic again, "However, this invincibility time is too short. Even if it's not my turn, I can't last until the end even if I use potions at full capacity."

But how could she easily let go of the hope she had finally grasped?

Mò Zhī immediately began experimenting in her inventory. She had collected a lot of food with various functions. What if she could find food that delayed this?

Finally, her efforts were rewarded!

After repeatedly risking her life for experiments, Mò Zhī finally found something suitable among the food items stored at the bottom of her inventory.

"Creamy Caramel Pastry!"

Mò Zhī obtained detailed data after repeated and meticulous calculations, "The normal invincibility time is a little over 0.2 seconds. Eating this food can extend it to 0.5 seconds."

"Although it's not very long, it should be enough for me."

Mò Zhī knew that by spending time memorizing the patterns, she would eventually be able to overcome it, but it would take a considerable amount of time.

This extra invincibility time could significantly alleviate her pressure.

"Hoo!"

Mò Zhī adjusted her breathing, switched windows to open a music player and play some instrumental music, found a comfortable posture, leaned back in her chair, and closed her eyes to rest.

"I'm a bit tired. I'll adjust my state and try to clear Ancestor Yu tonight!"

Gifts were flying in the live stream, ringing and clattering.

"Hey, hey, hey! I'm not implying for gifts, I'm just really tired and want to rest to adjust my state to be at its absolute best."

Mò Zhī looked at the torrent of gift effects with a mix of tears and laughter, repeatedly expressing her thanks, "But thank you all for your enthusiastic support. I will definitely clear the slaughter line today!"

Clearing a story line in one day was reasonable.

With her state adjusted, Mò Zhī, relying on her eighty-death memorization experience and the boost from the delayed-invincibility food, finally wore down Sister Yu to the brink of defeat.

Bang!

HP -1920!

As the final finishing blow flew out, Sister Yu's health bar was completely depleted. She still stood there, her posture firm and resolute.

Mò Zhī also re-examined the eccentric and hot-tempered female warrior in her heart.

At this moment, her image was incredibly real and majestic; her determination to protect the underground world was admirable!

"She truly lives up to the name of a hero. I salute her."

Immediately after clearing the level, Mò Zhī did not cheer or celebrate excitedly. Instead, she stood up, faced the screen, and bowed seriously.

Then, she received a warning from the platform's super administrator.

"What the heck! Super admin, are you even human? At such a solemn moment, you warn me? Are you allergic to seriousness?"

Mò Zhī was already full of anger with nowhere to vent it. If the super admin dared to cross her at this moment, wouldn't she have to let it all out?

The solemn atmosphere vanished due to the minor incident, and the live stream became lively again.

'The super admin is so clueless. You get to watch 36D big white buns for free and you still issue a warning? Are you biting the hand that feeds you?'

'This might be why I love watching Mò Zhī's streams. Unconsciously soaring! It makes me feel young again, like I'm still 18.'

'Congratulations Mò Zhī on your first clear of the slaughter line and Ān Dǎyīn! Truly strong!'

'I thought she was a streamer who specialized in speed runs, but seeing her today, I realize she's a technical streamer. Damn, I love her even more!'
