Chapter 75 – 74: “A Glimmer of Cold Light Arrives First, Then the Spear Strikes Like a Dragon!” (Seven updates upon release!)
“`
As Chen Yi was about to say something.
Suddenly the chat channel on his personal panel trembled.
“Jiaye: Yi, are you asleep? There are quite a few more monsters outside the city. My brother and I are fighting them outside. Do you want to join us, Yi?”
Chen Yi’s eyebrows slightly raised as he turned his head to look at his reflection in the mirror, pondering for a moment before replying.
“Okay, send me the exact coordinates.”
Soon.
Jiaye sent over the exact coordinates, followed by a playful expression with a sticking-out tongue.
“Let’s go.”
After Chen Yi got ready, he glanced at the Tuberculosis Rabbit next to him still browsing the Fashion Store: “I’m heading out to fight monsters in the suburbs. Jiaye and the others are there too.”
Before leaving.
Feeling a chill around the crotch area, he bought an E-grade underwear from the Fashion Store to wear.
The underwear didn’t belong to any Fashion Set; it was a standalone piece.
It was an optional purchase.
But he was used to wearing it, so he bought a pair anyway since it wasn’t expensive—just 10 Points.
However, most players in Yancheng didn’t have spare Points to spend, which meant that for a long time, most players in Yancheng would have to experience a period of going commando.
Sled activated.
In just a few minutes, Chen Yi arrived at the coordinates provided by Jiaye.
At first glance, there were quite a few monsters sprawled across the plains and forests on the outskirts of the suburbs, but each monster was spaced out, about 1 meter apart from the next, not as dense as an Insect Tide.
Minotaur Monster.
Standing about two meters tall, these muscle-bound bovines wielded enormous stone axes, dotting the plains with a formidable presence.
Many players had also made their way over throughout the night.
Almost all the players were uniformly clad in white boxer shorts, clutching all sorts of weapons, attacking the monsters either solo or in groups.
The monsters’ aggro was determined by distance and damage.
Monsters would target the player who stepped into their territory and dealt the most damage to them.
This also meant the possibility of kiting was present, and there was no need to worry about attracting the aggro of all the monsters by attacking one.
By the time they arrived.
Quite a few players were looking admiringly at a certain player among the monsters, clapping and shouting continuously.
“Awesome, bro, your moves are slick!”
“Kite another one, kite another one!”
“Be careful, brother, don’t get too greedy!”
The player who had garnered the attention of many was seriously wielding a dagger, eyes keenly watching the monster’s attacking motion, and at the moment a strike was launched, the player quickly rolled under the monster!
During the roll, the player lifted a hand and stabbed under the monster!
While this player was bending and rolling, another Minotaur Monster happened to catch up from behind.
The full-force strike meant for the player in the front landed heavily on the head of the chasing Minotaur Monster from behind!
Although the health bar was not visible, the scream of the monster hit conveyed that a significant amount of health had been lost.
This player had impressively drawn the aggro of 4 monsters at once!
With agile movements, the player continuously dodged, causing the 4 monsters to attack each other, gradually wearing down their health bars.
The dagger in hand was opportunistic, targeting the monsters’ vital areas with each stab.
Every heavy blow from the monsters was narrowly avoided by the player.
This player was Han Yu.
“Well done!!!”
The surrounding players were once again impressed by the scene, and a group of players in white boxer shorts started clapping and cheering again!
As Han Yu heard the applause, the corners of her mouth twitched slightly; her heart was not at ease but was even more tense.
Finally, after one minute.
Then Chen Yi, with a calm expression, single-handedly leaned on his staff and stepped onto the staircase with steady and rhythmic strides, like a descending deity, walking towards Jiaye amidst the crowd.
The Tuberculosis Rabbit also stood up, bringing a fist to their mouth to cough lightly, then changed its leg tattoos to floral patterns, dressed up in Hawaiian style, and followed behind Yi with a proud and upright posture.
When this scene unfolded,
The players below, looking up at Chen Yi, were stunned into silence, gazing at the Sky Ladder above their heads, awestruck.
Was this thing... also a Prop?
Why hadn’t they ever seen it before!
But upon seeing the endpoint of the Sky Ladder, that delicate girl in a suspender dress sitting on the broad-shouldered man, barefoot,
The envy and jealousy in the eyes of the others intensified!
A fine woman had fallen for some brute!!
...
Upon seeing the girl in the crowd who stood out so prominently, Han Yu felt a touch of quiet inferiority as he lowered his head, but the dagger in his hand gripped a bit tighter.
Only a powerful man is worthy of such a woman.
He too must grow stronger quickly!
He too must find his own fair lady!
The times were different now.
Classes were no longer fixed; as long as one was willing to fight and had a bit of luck, anyone could leap across classes.
He, Han Yu, would have his chance too!
...
“So showy.”
Li Yide, also standing amidst the crowd, couldn’t help but feel irked as he shook the Fox Tail at his backside, lighting a cigarette and putting it to his lips, “Everyone knows he’s formidable, but does he have to flaunt it like this?”
“It’s really irritating.”
“Look at those girls, their eyes are practically sparkling, and no one even notices the Fashion Set I bought for a hefty price.”
“This feeling of being upstaged is really unpleasant.”
“But on second thought, is that Sky Ladder a Prop or a Skill, and how did he get it? Do we have a chance of getting one too?”
“I’ve never seen this thing in the ’Invincible Under the Heavens’ Points Store event.”
...
“Sorry to keep you waiting.”
Chen Yi descended the Sky Ladder, silently deactivated the staircase effect behind him, and as the ladder turned into a faint yellow dust that dissipated into smoke, he then looked towards Tie Chui and Jiaye in front of him, his lips lifting into a smile as he said,
“Let’s go, together to slay some monsters.” Find more to read at empire
He then pulled out a cigarette and offered it to Tie Chui, “Long time no see, brother.”
“Brother... you look so commanding...”
Although Tie Chui was a bit slow, for some reason, he was very receptive to the gesture of being offered a cigarette, his eyes lighting up as he took the cigarette from Chen Yi’s hand.
He then looked at Chen Yi with a simple smile and gave him a thumbs-up.
Chen Yi chuckled softly and didn’t reply; he had understood the principle of showcasing one’s best while working hard behind the scenes since he was young.
“How about it?”
And then—
Jiaye, who sat on Tie Chui’s shoulders, wiggled her red nail-polished, delicate feet, drawing Chen Yi’s gaze towards her. She looked at him expectantly and asked, “Does this Fashion Set look good?”
...
ps: Today’s serialized chapters are now fully updated, totally 7 chapters, with more than 20,000 words.
The first subscription results are quite good; although it hasn’t been 24 hours, it’s almost there, with a base of around 6k, not quite 7k.
This result would be mediocre for a well-known author, but for a nobody like me, it’s already quite an achievement.
According to the promise made in the launch statement, from now on there will be 3 updates daily, each chapter being over 3,000 words, which means a guaranteed update of at least 10,000 words every day.
Monthly tickets and rewards will be counted separately.
The update times will be, once at noon at 12:00 PM, and again in the evening at 9:00 PM.
Thank you to all the readers for your support, I hope I can continue to create more interesting stories and live up to your expectations.
