Chapter 17

Shui Shen was wondering if Gu Fei had stepped on a trap, but he didn't expect the "pa pa" sound of the traps being triggered to ring out continuously. Shui Shen's view was blocked and he couldn't see what was happening, so he quickly adjusted his steps to widen his view. Finally, the scene behind a large tree appeared before Shui Shen's eyes...

Shui Shen's mouth instantly widened, and in the surrounding woods, more and more players from Extremely Cold extended their heads, straightened their bodies, and their expressions were as if they were carved from the same mold as Shui Shen. Their eyes were wide, their mouths agape, and their faces looked like they had three eggs pasted on them.

Right before their eyes, in the trap formation that Extremely Cold was so proud of and prepared to use to dominate Lin Yin City, Gu Fei was dancing frantically as if he had been injected with chicken blood.

The continuous "pa pa" sounds came from under Gu Fei's feet. Every step he took would trigger a trap, but the high-speed spring-loaded trap jaws were still no faster than Gu Fei's reaction. The tip of his long sword was waiting at the lower three points. As soon as a trap sprang up, his foot would immediately jump up first. When the trap caught up to clamp his ankle, it would immediately be knocked away by the tip of his sword.

"Pa pa"...

One "pa" was the sound of the trap springing up, and the other "pa" was the sound of it being knocked down by Gu Fei.

Shui Shen really had no words to describe the scene before him. This scene evoked some very bad memories for him. The first time he fought Gu Fei, he heard the sound of a trap behind him, and he excitedly thought that Gu Fei had been caught by the trap. But when he turned around, he was the one who had his nose clamped by the trap that Gu Fei had knocked away...

And Gu Fei's performance at this time was even more perverted than that day. At this time, he was already deep in Extremely Cold's trap formation. After all, this was not like the steps at the entrance of the Sunset City dungeon, where the traps were placed nakedly. Here, all the traps were hidden underground, and Gu Fei had no way of predicting the location of the traps. From the moment he accidentally stepped on the first one, it was as if he had triggered a chain mechanism. To avoid the first one, he would trigger the second one. After avoiding the second one, he would step on the third one.

Shui Shen and the others watched in stunned silence, but Gu Fei was also suffering in his heart at this time. At this time, even having an inch of foothold had become a luxury. Gu Fei didn't dare to be careless in the slightest. The traps were already keeping him busy enough, and he couldn't pay attention to Duan Shui Jian's location at all. After knocking down several more spring-loaded traps in succession, finally, this time, after one foot landed, the ground was calm, and nothing burst out of the ground.

Gu Fei let out a breath, but he didn't dare to be careless. He maintained a stance with one foot supporting his weight. Gu Fei had to first find out if there were any traps on the ground before he put his other foot down.

The Extremely Cold players watching were all ashen-faced. Seeing that no more traps were springing up on Gu Fei's side, everyone looked at each other.

"Ten... seventeen..." someone stuttered out this number.

Everyone knew what he was talking about. Gu Fei had stepped on seventeen traps, but in the end, he was fine! He had knocked down all seventeen traps with just one long sword. Looking back now, the time from when Gu Fei stepped on the first trap to when he stopped seemed like a dream. Everyone found that they couldn't remember what Gu Fei had done, because everything happened so fast. All that kept echoing in everyone's minds was the "pa pa" double-tap.

The first "pa" was the sound of the trap springing up.

The second "pa" was the sound of the trap being knocked down.

Suddenly, everyone felt that their class's future was so bleak, so bleak. In this kind of environment, seventeen consecutive traps failed to subdue someone. Could this class still have a future?

Everyone stood in place, wooden. Even the trees around them were more vibrant than they were, and they could still make a slight "rustling" sound when the wind blew.

Gu Fei was completely unaware of the devastating psychological shadow his perverted actions had caused to the surrounding masses. At this time, he was still maintaining the golden rooster stance, poking and tapping the ground with his sword. He wanted to find a safe place to land.

The rustling sound of the wind blowing through the trees suddenly amplified at this moment, but the wind obviously hadn't suddenly become stronger. Everyone's hearts stirred, and they looked in the direction of the sound.

Duan Shui Jian! He rushed out of the bushes at high speed, pouncing towards Gu Fei, who was trapped in the trap formation.

"Lao Duan!!!" The players even made a sound of joyful tears. Obviously, they regarded Duan Shui Jian as their last lifeline. They hoped that someone would prove to them that traps actually had a future and were capable of defeating any pervert. They had actually forgotten that Duan Shui Jian was not a lurker who specialized in traps.

"You haven't left!" Gu Fei was moved. He thought that Duan Shui Jian had lured him to this place to take the opportunity to escape while he was entangled in the traps. He didn't expect that he was still secretly spying on the side, still harboring murderous intentions. This Duan Shui Jian was much more promising than Gu Fei had imagined.

Duan Shui Jian didn't answer. He was silent, fiercely pouncing towards Gu Fei. He also stepped into the trap formation that had trapped Gu Fei, but every step he took was safe and sound.

"Lao Duan, so handsome!!!" All the players shouted. The guild leader had instructed them not to interfere in this PK, and they had obeyed. But in a PK, it was okay to have a bit of subjective bias, right? In this battle, the Extremely Cold players would stand on Duan Shui Jian's side no matter what angle they considered it from. Actually, if they hadn't seen that the guild leader Shui Shen was also watching the battle, some guys might have already been unable to hold back and taken action. If they couldn't help openly, it was okay to fire a few cold shots in the dark, right? This was the strength of the lurker.

Duan Shui Jian rushed over aggressively, but Gu Fei was still standing on one leg, unable to find a foothold. And this was the opportunity Duan Shui Jian wanted to seize.

"Double Flame Flash, Flash!!" Gu Fei didn't dare to move his feet, and had no choice but to use offense as defense. He shook his long sword, and a "Double Flame Flash" stabbed towards Duan Shui Jian.

Duan Shui Jian didn't panic. Seeing the attack, he jumped to the side. Gu Fei never ended an attack with just one move, but when he saw Duan Shui Jian dodging, he could only curse "Damn it" in his heart. The direction of Duan Shui Jian's jump meant that Gu Fei couldn't add a follow-up move without moving his feet. This guy had completely calculated that Gu Fei wouldn't dare to move recklessly at this time.

Duan Shui Jian, having avoided the sword, pressed his advantage and continued to pounce. When Gu Fei saw his posture, he was actually giving up his beloved crossbow-as-gun shooting and was coming over to fight Gu Fei in close combat.

Gu Fei would of course welcome this in normal times, but at this time, it was an extremely grim challenge.

Although we often see masters in some movies and TV shows turning others around in circles without moving, don't forget that those are all top masters playing with newbies. If Gu Fei were to just pick a random player, he could of course do that too, but the person in front of him was not an ordinary player. Duan Shui Jian rushed forward and raised his hand, locking it towards Gu Fei's throat. This move was extremely vicious. If it were a real fight, it would be entirely possible to directly crush the throat bone and kill him with one move.

Gu Fei didn't dare to be careless. While dodging sideways, the foot that had never had a chance to land also took advantage of the situation, and swept horizontally towards Duan Shui Jian's head.

Duan Shui Jian bent over to avoid it, and took the opportunity to kick a sweeping leg towards Gu Fei's supporting single leg.

But Gu Fei's foot was faster. The foot that was sweeping his head suddenly changed direction halfway and stepped down, stepping right on Duan Shui Jian's head as he bent over, and then chased after him with force, almost stepping Duan Shui Jian to the ground. And Gu Fei, taking advantage of this stepping force, not only lifted his other foot off the ground to avoid his sweeping leg, but his body had also leaped into the air.

"Instantaneous Movement!!" Gu Fei chanted towards the sky in mid-air, and with a "whoosh," he had flashed to the upper half of the air. With both hands, he climbed onto a tree branch in front of him, and with a swing of his body, he had flipped onto it steadily.

"Sorry, I was forced to." Gu Fei gestured to Duan Shui Jian, indicating that the impolite move of stepping on his head just now was really a last resort.

When Duan Shui Jian heard this, he was even more depressed. It turned out that there were traps in the two or three moves they had exchanged just now! Obviously, Gu Fei's situation just now, with a single leg balancing, was the biggest flaw. Gu Fei had predicted that Duan Shui Jian would take action against this place as soon as possible, so he used a trick, and came up and gave Duan Shui Jian's head a horizontal sweep, which was calculated to be that Duan Shui Jian would take the opportunity to lower his body to avoid it and sweep Gu Fei's supporting leg. So Gu Fei also took the opportunity to use Duan Shui Jian's head as a support. With such a footrest, plus the distance of instantaneous movement, Gu Fei escaped the trap formation and went up the tree in one fell swoop.

No matter how awesome Duan Shui Jian was, he couldn't fly to the tree at this time. He quickly pulled out his short crossbow and fired a round of shots, thinking that Gu Fei might not be too agile on this tree branch. As a result, Gu Fei's footwork was really solid. He stood steadily on a tree branch, turning left, turning right, and Duan Shui Jian watched helplessly as his six short arrows were shot empty, not hitting a single one. He quickly pulled out his arrow case and buried his head to load ammunition, occasionally looking up at Gu Fei in the tree, only to see Gu Fei taking out an apple from his pocket and gnawing on it, uh, which was also equivalent to replenishing ammunition.

Mana recovery was still a bit slow after all, especially since Gu Fei couldn't wait for the still state with the best recovery effect. He had just taken two bites when Duan Shui Jian had already loaded his ammunition below and raised it again to aim at Gu Fei.

Gu Fei spread his hands towards him helplessly: "What's the point? You won't hit anyway. Do you have to shoot all the arrows in your pocket?"

Duan Shui Jian gritted his teeth. The logic was indeed the case, but if he didn't shoot, what else could he do?

"In the end, you still have to play with guns. Then what did you rush over for?" Gu Fei said.

Duan Shui Jian didn't answer. Actually, of course he didn't want to rush over, but how could he have imagined that Gu Fei would be so perverted that he wouldn't be subdued even after stepping on seventeen traps in a row? Gu Fei didn't dare to move randomly before maintaining his posture, which was no different from being caught in a trap. But this was for Gu Fei, who didn't know the inside story. Duan Shui Jian, who was completely familiar with the trap formation, knew very well that Gu Fei had already jumped out of the formation after dodging seventeen traps in a row. If he was bold enough to step two steps randomly, he would soon notice.

Duan Shui Jian rushed up, wanting to take advantage of Gu Fei's lack of awareness to force him back into the formation, because close combat was easier to control the opponent's movements. But who would have thought that Gu Fei could use his head to fly to the tree instead? Life was really too helpless.
