Hu Die Lan
Chapter 343 A History of Blood and Tears
One step, two steps, three steps… Jian Gui and the others moved further and further away from the mission posting board. After a fierce internal struggle, Shui Shen ultimately couldn’t bring himself to order an attack on these five experts.
They might just want to wash off their PK points, or they might have ulterior motives! Shui Shen told himself. Although he felt that his actions lacked courage, he was reluctant to draw swords against friends for the sake of a task.
Thus, under everyone’s gaze, Shui Shen remained silent. Of the five who had left, four had already turned into the street. Only Yu Tian Shen Ming stood at an intersection, taking a few steps to the left, then a few steps to the right, making notes in a small notebook, his face pale and apprehensive.
This was Yu Tian Shen Ming at his most pitiful in the game. Seeing this, Shui Shen felt even more reluctant to be harsh. He turned his gaze to all the guild brothers looking at him: “What are you looking at? If you have PK points, hurry up and wash them off!”
Then the people who had come all looked at each other, asking each other, “Do you have any?” “Do you have any?”
In the end, a few people stepped forward, but their PK values were very low, only one or two points. Therefore, they were not in a hurry to take on a task to wash them away. They thought that after a sleepless night, the PK values would naturally disappear. Why take the risk of doing a PK mission?
“Could it be that all the guys with high PK values have been sent to jail!” Shui Shen thought anxiously, waiting. At the same time, he instructed his men to accompany those with low PK values to wash them off first.
After entering and taking the mission, a player ran out and immediately said to Shui Shen: “I don’t think they’ve registered. There aren’t as many people with high PK values on the PK mission list as I thought. Logically, their PK values shouldn’t be low.”
Shui Shen shook his head: “They haven’t launched a wave of attacks like us. Their PK values wouldn’t be so concentrated. Besides, our losses weren’t as great as theirs.”
The brother accepted Shui Shen’s judgment with sincere admiration.
“What were our losses tonight? Has anyone made a detailed count?” Shui Shen asked.
“About 100 people lost a level!”
“100 people? That’s it?” Shui Shen was very surprised.
Then that player looked back at Shui Shen in surprise: “Of course. It’s all because those guys brought a bunch of mercenary groups. Otherwise, how would anyone have lost a level?”
“Oh!!!” Shui Shen let out a long groan and hit himself on the head.
In a two-way mission, there are no PK values for guild members to PK each other, and death only results in a 20% experience loss. This is the system rule. When they first received this task, the guild members didn’t know it was a two-way mission. They only realized it after encountering their opponents. At that time, Shui Shen and the others naturally thought of the rules of the two-way mission, but somehow he himself forgot about it later. One important reason was: Shui Shen was the first to be sacrificed on their side, and he lost a level. The experience lost from losing a level was also extremely high.
Thinking of this, Shui Shen was instantly in tears.
He hated that his brain must have short-circuited. He was actually grateful that Gu Fei had given him a clean kill. He thought that Wu Shi Zhi Jian was burning with anger after being provoked by him, and if he wanted to kill himself, he would definitely humiliate and torment him in every possible way. But that mage took the lead and gave him a quick death, and he was quite touched. But now, thinking back…
“I curse your ancestors!!!” Shui Shen pounded his chest and stamped his feet at the mission posting board. He might as well have been tortured to death by Wu Shi Zhi Jian. That would only have been a 20% loss of experience, but now? The experience lost was a full 195%, which was almost 10 times as much when rounded up.
Why was he so unlucky? Shui Shen was unable to extricate himself from the pain. He forgot the rule, but did that guy also forget it by such a coincidence? Thinking about the scene at the time, Shui Shen felt that he had already found the answer. Just then, at the corner of the street ahead, Wu Shi Zhi Jian and the remaining mercenary leaders walked towards him. They were also stunned when they saw Shui Shen and a large group of people standing there.
Without thinking, Shui Shen rushed over, and the brothers followed closely behind.
Wu Shi Zhi Jian, who was walking in the front, was naturally shocked. The other side had the advantage in numbers, while their side was just the leadership team. But a leader without underlings isn’t a real leader… What’s more, he was a warrior, so there was no chance to escape!
Logically, the other side wouldn’t make a move in the current situation! This was the conclusion they had reached in their brief meeting just now.
Was the analysis wrong? Or was the other side so stupid that they hadn’t realized this?
Thinking of this, Wu Shi Zhi Jian hurriedly reminded the other side: “Dare to move us? Don’t you want us to bring out your target from the dungeon?”
As a result, Shui Shen didn’t even look at him. He just waved his hand at him: “I’m not looking for you. Go cool off wherever it’s cool!”
Wu Shi Zhi Jian was furious! But what could he say? The other side had a hundred or so people! It was just his mistake that he didn’t bring a large group of brothers with him. A mistake, a mistake.
Shui Shen arrived in front, immediately grabbed Han Jia Gong Zi and pulled him aside. Looking back and seeing his big group of brothers still following him closely, he quickly said: “What are you still following me for? If you have PK points, hurry up and wash them off.”
Everyone was stunned. One person asked blankly: “Aren’t we going to take care of them?” He pointed to Wu Shi Zhi Jian and the various mercenary leaders over there, who were already surrounded by them.
“Take care of what? What is the mission content? What’s the use of taking care of them now? Go do the real thing.” Shui Shen sent everyone away. Then he grabbed Han Jia Gong Zi and scolded: “You bastard.”
Han Jia Gong Zi rolled his eyes and said to the leadership team of Cloud End City, who were staring at them dumbfounded: “You guys go first. I’ll come over later. I have something to say to this madman.”
Although everyone was very curious, they were too embarrassed to just stand there and watch, so they had no choice but to leave.
“Was it you who hinted at it, you bastard?” As soon as people left, Shui Shen immediately prepared to settle the score with Han Jia Gong Zi.
“Hint at what?” Han Jia Gong Zi feigned innocence.
“Still pretending?”
Han Jia Gong Zi continued to spread his hands with an innocent look.
So Shui Shen narrated his bloody history in a tone of deep resentment, and concluded: “Such a despicable act could not have been instructed by anyone but you.”
“Hehehehe, so you’re talking about this.” Han Jia Gong Zi’s smile was extremely gentle.
“What are you laughing at!!” Shui Shen was angry.
“Frankly speaking, this matter has nothing to do with me, and he was also kind. I can be sure that he probably doesn’t know there is such a rule, and even if he knows, he definitely didn’t realize it. That guy is a gaming noob.” Han Jia Gong Zi said.
“A gaming noob? Don’t joke around!” How could Shui Shen believe it! A gaming noob captured him alive, and a gaming noob disrupted their well-arranged street attack plan. If he said this, would he still have the face to hang around?
“He is a noob, but the current game mode is very suitable for him,” Han Jia Gong Zi said.
“What do you mean?” Shui Shen asked.
“He claims to be proficient in kung fu,” Han Jia Gong Zi said.
“Kung fu? Are people still playing with these things now?” Shui Shen asked suspiciously.
Han Jia Gong Zi shrugged again: “I don’t know, but his skills are indeed abnormal. Besides, he knows almost nothing about the game.”
“Where did such a weirdo come from!” Shui Shen muttered to himself, unconsciously letting go of Han Jia Gong Zi.
“I’m really sorry about today!” Han Jia Gong Zi said after tidying up his clothes.
“Wow, did I hear right? How could you possibly say an apology?” Shui Shen looked like he had seen the most terrifying thing in the world.
“Apologies are just for better offending next time,” Han Jia Gong Zi said calmly.
Shui Shen immediately became wary: “What conspiracy did you design to deal with us?”
“Guess,” Han Jia Gong Zi smiled gently.
“I’ve decided to kill you to silence you,” Shui Shen said suddenly.
“That’s not your style,” Han Jia Gong Zi patted him. “I’m leaving. Wait to die!”
Shui Shen whitened his knuckles again from excessive force. Facing this vile guy, he really shouldn’t have had a merciful heart! From this angle, first, a double arrow, then snipe him with a shot, a powerful critical hit, and then a tracking arrow. Kill this bastard. Shui Shen was enjoying the revenge in his heart, and suddenly quickened his pace and rushed over.
Hearing the rapid footsteps behind him, Han Jia Gong Zi turned his head and saw Shui Shen rushing up aggressively, very surprised: “What are you…”
“There are thieves!” Shui Shen said succinctly. While rushing towards Han Jia Gong Zi, a handful of white lime powder had already been waved towards Han Jia Gong Zi’s right side.
This handful of lime powder was generously dosed. Not only were two thieves blinded, but they were also coughing loudly.
“Quick, dodge!” While Shui Shen shouted, Han Jia Gong Zi was already moving to the side, while paying attention to the two thieves who had appeared.
“Aren’t they your people?” Han Jia Gong Zi couldn’t imagine that in this unfamiliar place, besides Shui Shen and his group who were fighting against them, who else would try to attack him.
“Nonsense,” Shui Shen said.
The two thieves didn’t seem to be unfamiliar with the white lime powder. After quickly dispersing it with a wave of their hands, they gripped their daggers tightly and were about to rush to chase after him.
“Into the woods!” While Shui Shen shouted at Han Jia Gong Zi, he nocked an arrow to his bow. But unlike ordinary archers, he didn’t shoot at the opponent’s front, but at their feet.
After the arrow flew, there was a soft “pa la” sound, and a trap suddenly popped up from the ground and caught the player’s ankle.
“Trap arrow, haven’t seen it before?” Shui Shen smiled and explained to the other party’s surprised gaze, and backhanded another arrow at the other person. This person’s reaction was considered quick. Seeing that the arrow was aimed at him again, he immediately stopped. As a result, he saw a very ordinary arrow stuck in front of his feet. The man was so scared that he jumped to the side, fearing that the arrow would suddenly turn into a trap and clip him.
Shui Shen had already escaped several meters at this time. Turning his head and seeing the player’s panicked look, he smiled slyly.
