However… Luo Yao was still highly suspicious of whether such a tool existed in God’s Path.
‘Oh, that’s right.‘ Luo Yao suddenly thought, ‘If Mengya’s guess is correct, then whoever is behind this might have the strength to defeat a level 30 Beast King!‘
She excitedly told Qin Mengya about her speculations.
However, the soul in her body quickly poured a bucket of cold water on her hopes, “How can these two things mean the same thing? Even if this mysterious person can defeat the Wind Maestro, it doesn’t mean he can defeat a level 30 Beast King. And you should know this well more than anyone else. I was once a powerful player at the peak of my condition before I died. But even then, I could be defeated by a level 30 Beast King if I face it alone.”
Luo Yao’s excitement immediately calmed down after hearing Qin Mengya’s words, but it didn’t mean that she didn’t feel disappointed.
‘She’s right….‘
Defeating a Beast King would require thousands of players and several hours to defeat it. It was not something that one or two players could easily kill.
Her heart fell again.
Seeing this, Qin Mengya looked away and scolded herself for being too talkative.
Helplessly, she could only comfort her, “It’s useless for you to think about it now. Why don’t you find whoever this player is first? To be able to reach the third area on the third day is still something to applaud for. I may not know what kind of strategy they used, but they did create history.” Then the soul added with a slightly awkward tone, “Perhaps this person or group of people has a chance of defeating the Beast King.”
It was just her way of consoling the girl.
As a level 72 player who had fought two Beast Kings, she knew this kind of enemy was not something one or two players could deal with.
“Is that so? Then that’s good!” Luo Yao believed her idol’s words.
Although she knew Mengya was probably trying to comfort her, a wisp of hope still rekindled in her heart.
But Mengya did have a point.
She needed to find him first!
How strong this person or party was, whether they would help her, and so on… She needed to have a talk with them about it. And for that to happen, she needs to meet them!
With that goal in mind, she walked even faster.
In a few minutes, they followed the crowd to the top of the mountain.
[Current Area: Hot Wind Golden Peak (Main Road’s third stage)]
[Monster Information: Flaming Skeleton Soldier (level 15 – level 20), Flaming Monarch (level 20, Boss)]
Everyone was notified of the third area’s information as soon as they arrived.
The Hot Wind Golden Peak.
Just as its name suggested, the wind was hot and constantly blowing here, and the exposed rocky ground emitted golden light from the sun.
From a distance, it looked like ground covered with gold.
There was no grass, trees, rocks, or soil on the top of the mountain, just an uneven rocky surface.
There should have been thousands of Skeleton Soldiers holding sabers in their left hands and shields in their right hands, moving to charge them.
But none of them were in close range.
There were only about a hundred of them.
“Hmm? Are the monsters here?”
The players at the top of the mountain looked at each other when they saw a few more Flaming Skeleton Soldiers wandering a few hundred meters away.
Many people made a guess.
There were either a large number of monsters here, or there was not a single one, to begin with.
The fact that there were only a hundred or so left was out of many people’s expectations.
They carefully looked around and found that there was nothing on the peak except for the hundreds of skeleton soldiers.
There was no Boss, the Wildflame Monarch.
There was no evidence of any fight or players to have come here.
“That’s strange… Didn’t that player release meteorites here just a few moments ago? Where is he now?”
“Could they have used a teleportation device?”
“I think it’s likely that he’ll return to his original spot.”
“Then we didn’t come in vain?”
The players chatted, and everyone was disappointed they didn’t see the mysterious player.
However, just as they were feeling disappointed, the army of Flaming Skeleton Soldiers in the distance had discovered them!
They cawed and strode towards the crowd with their long, boney legs.
As soon as the skeletal foot touched the ground, it immediately jumped up again, leaping four or five meters away. Then it swung its arm in a big arch, starting from its waist to its head.
The two-meter-tall gray skeleton, coupled with the exaggerated movements, looked menacingly creepy.
“Sh*t! We’ve been discovered by the skeleton soldiers. Retreat!”
“If you can’t outrun them, why don’t you return to where you were?”
“If you want to draw today’s wheel, then go back. Since we haven’t reached level 10, it’s fine even if we die!”
As many people began to retreat, some people rushed toward the horde of bones with excitement.
“Hahaha! Since we don’t have any death penalty, I’ll just let the skeleton soldiers send me back to the camp!” A middle-aged man with spiky red hair laughed as he charged.
“We have so many people. Maybe we can kill some.” Someone shouted and conjured a fireball from his hand as he ran.
“You guys retreat. We’ll block them!” A handsome young man with golden hair rushed out of the crowd.
Immediately after, more people were infected by their optimism and followed into battle.
As newbies, they were not afraid of death.
They follow their heart’s desires.
“Don’t you want to join them?” Qin Mengya asked Luo Yao.
“Mm….” She thought for a moment before finally shaking her head, “There are too many people. Even if we kill one, we won’t get any experience.”
If a level 10 monster were killed by a level 5 and a level 10 player, then the level 5 player would gain (6/2=3) experience.
In theory, a level 10 player could get (1/2=0.5) experience.
It was only in theory because God’s Path had a rule of “rounding down experience.”
0.5. Experience will be treated as 0 exp.
Which means… In this kind of situation, the level 10 player would only get 0 exp.
When too many people worked together to kill a monster, almost no one would get any exp.
This was why Luo Yao didn’t want to participate in the fight.
She stood alone outside the crowd, letting the wind blow her hair. Her gaze penetrated the crowd in the distance and focused on a place even further away.
Her pretty face inadvertently looked a little melancholy.
…
[You’ve absorbed 77 points of Zhang Yuan’s excitement value]
[You have absorbed 40 curiosity points from Arhan]
[You have absorbed 91 excitement points from Wang Tianze]
[You absorbed …]
Ling Yi walked unhurriedly through the crowd as if he was a tourist.
He watched everyone fight with great interest while absorbing their distress points.
He was in an excellent mood.
He had only planned to test the Ice Queen’s strength two hours ago.
Who would’ve thought the creature was so powerful that it didn’t take much effort to eliminate the second area’s monsters and boss?
When he came to the third area, it was evident that the Ice Queen had a much harder time.
The third stage’s Boss, the Wildflame Monarch, was killed with the help of his [Starfall].
After two battle rounds, he had a rough idea of the Ice Queen’s strength. He was a little stronger than the leader-level monsters of the same level.
1
He had the upper hand, but he couldn’t crush them in an instant.
He could defeat his opponent, and it would take time.
It was about the same strength as he had expected.
It was a pity that although Ling Yi had seen her in action so many times, he still didn’t know much about her abilities.
He only knew that she had many ice skills, could fly, and was very fast.
But he still had no idea what the effects of those skills were.
However… Luo Yao was still highly suspicious of whether such a tool existed in God’s Path.
‘Oh, that’s right.‘ Luo Yao suddenly thought, ‘If Mengya’s guess is correct, then whoever is behind this might have the strength to defeat a level 30 Beast King!‘
