Chapter 159 - The End of the Road?

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

The battle continued.

Li Yi’s body was already covered in copper smelling blood. The armor on his body had long lost its original color.

There were still countless players that surrounded Li Yi. The blood on the ground pooled more than on his body.

It was originally just a flat ground, but now it had almost become a blood pool.

The players around him continued to besiege him one after another.

In the face of the absolute advantage in numbers, Li Yi’s HP had already dropped by more than half. If it was not for the fact that Deaths Descent had already reached the second stage, he would have lost even more HP.

“-15,410!”

“+1,541!”

…

Li Yi casually chopped down another player.

His body started to feel weary, and his hands were starting to feel numb. If he had not been prepared, the sword in his hand would have loosened by now.

The battle had been going on for almost half an hour now.

However, the players around him were still as numerous as a flock of sparrows.

The scheming player from before had already noticed Li Yi’s exhaustion. These players were waiting for Li Yi’s stamina to be weakened.

“Hey look, he’s about to die from exhaustion. Everyone, let’s work harder. We’re about to take him down.”

The players who were still alive were even more excited taking him down than fighting monsters in dungeons.

The name Carefree Dream was widely known. He was an insurmountable hurdle in everyone’s hearts. He had stabilized himself at the top of the level rankings. He had obtained the first clear of dungeons all year round. He was a frequent star to the entire server.

These achievements made countless players envious and jealous of him.

They also wanted to one day be able to pull this person down from the altar.

Now was the best opportunity to do so and they would not miss it.

Li Yi looked around at these players who were like hungry wolves. Although these players were not organized, and their attacking methods were not methodical… There were too many of them. They were like a pack of vultures and hyenas, trying to scrape off a piece of meat from Li Yi’s body.

If Li Yi stayed where he was, no matter how much HP he had, he would only be like a lamb waiting to be slaughtered.

How could he let them get what they wanted?

He clenched the cloth in his hand tightly with his teeth.

“Charge!”

Li Yi shot out once again on the spot, breaking through the crowd, and the blood mist rose again. He used the same trick again, taking away another group of players.

[System Notification: Player Domineer has withdrawn from the game.]

…

Li Yi did not stop there. When he reached an area, he began to move, waiting for the cooldown time to end. As he walked, he reaped the players that blocked his way.

When the cooldown time was over, he shot again, repeating this process over and over again.

Along the way, there were countless screams.

“Quick, someone stop him!”

“No, I can’t stop him, ah!”

“Don’t come over here, ah!”

Li Yi kept harvesting the bodies, and blood spurted in the air. The sword in Li Yi’s hand cut through the crowd time and time again.

The blood spurted so much that a few players’ visions began to be blurred from the dense red liquid.

[System Notification: Player Naughty Naughty has exited the game.]

[System Notification…]

…

Li Yi kept cutting and killing.

How many players had died under his hands? He did not keep count.

However, his hands did not stop. Every time he killed a group, another group would surround him.

Meanwhile, Li Yi’s movements were getting slower and slower.

No matter how good his equipment was, no matter how strong his skill talent was. Right now, he was only level 27.

In this game, players would feel the exhaustion of burning out their stamina.

Such a large amount of stamina consumption was something that even Li Yi could not bear.

When he was harvesting others, he also had to resist their attacks.

Up until now, the attacks he received had already exceeded his maximum HP.

The recovery speed of his HP also began to slow down as the potion buffs stopped.

Li Yi was soon surrounded by the crowd again. He did not have much MP left. Using skills frequently consumed too much MP.

“Don’t always let the Warriors come forward. All of you Mages, release your skills and bombard him from afar.”

It was unknown whose words it was, but the Mages who were originally behind the dense crowd began to bombard him indiscriminately.

“Those inside, quickly come out and surround Carefree Dream. We’ll bombard him from afar.”

The players inside tried to retreat, and many of them inevitably suffered. In the beginning, few Mages did not dare to do this because they were afraid of hurting their own players. However, with so many players, who cared who those unfamiliar players were.

Li Yi received the most attacks from the center.

“Starlight’s Blessing!”

“Lost Magic!”

All sorts of magic attacks came at Li Yi. Although they could not cause any damage with him being invincible, the heavy effect of the black shield suppressed Li Yi to the ground.

“Damn it, I’m running out of strength.”

Li Yi felt a little helpless. He had to endure the continuous bombardment alone, which made his stamina get depleted even faster.

The black shield was in front of him. This was his last defense.

His Invincibility skill soon disappeared as well.

However, the bombardment did not.

“-1540! Block!”

“-2410! Block!”

“-1,458! Block!”

“-2,451! Block!”

…

Under the counter damage and the shield’s resistance, Li Yi absorbed a very small amount of HP. However, this amount of HP could not compare to the damage he received.

“Heroic Spirit’s Blessing!”

“+3,541!”

Li Yi watched as his last life-saving passive skill was activated.

It seemed that he had been too careless.

He only wanted to find her, but he had neglected the current battle situation.

He had even bragged shamelessly about wanting to establish his reputation. Now, he had even tested out his last resort.

Could it really not work?

Li Yi was somewhat unwilling to submit, but he was not discouraged.

There were just 1000 players. They were nothing compared to the Pantheon.

He was someone who wanted to kill a god, so how could he stop here. Taking advantage of the gap between the skills, Li Yi used all his strength to draw a huge arc slash.

“Horizontal Sword Slash!”

“-41,541!Critical Hit!”

“-15,134!”

“-15,122!”

…

The sharp attackbroke through the crowd and took away a large number of players.

“+4,154!”

“+1,513!”

…

Following this attack, Li Yi’s HP recovered quite a bit. However, he no longer had MP left to use.

The potions in his inventory had also been used up.

The current Li Yi was truly at his wit’s end.

“What a pity.”

“What’s a pity, bro? Really?”

A familiar voice sounded in Li Yi’s ears.

A streak of golden lightning streaked past him, breaking through the crowd and taking away a few players. It then released a dazzling bolt of lightning on the spot, and the surrounding players were frozen in place by this sudden bolt of lightning, unable to move.

Then, a long knife flew over from the sky and stood in front of him, and a familiar figure appeared.

“Clutch King, couldn’t you’ve waited for me?”

“Who told you to run this slow?”

Dream Seeker pulled out Traceless and handed Li Yi a Mana Potion.

Li Yi took it and drank it in one gulp, then slowly stood up.

Clutch King and Dream Seeker’s arrival had given him a chance to catch his second wind.

Now, he could fight again!
