Chapter 257: Weighty Arrow

Chapter 257: Weighty Arrow

How did this happen? The pleasant voice of a lady resounded throughout the room. Through her screen, she also could tell the systems decision was way too illogical.

In the futuristic room, the pair of male and female sat in their levitated seats. The male spoke moments later, I guess the system doesnt want to waste any more time. Hah This Dragonspear has great potential, but hes way too stubborn!

Drifters are viruses that can cause massive disruptions to the system. Thats why the system wants to get rid of the virus as soon as possible, but it cant use its powers without a valid reason. By creating a quest, its sending players in to do the dirty work. The six are testing the systems patience by holding out the first two waves.

The man sighed and put on a pitiful look. He then continued, Dragonspear cannot possibly clear this quest even if hes ten times stronger. Just watch, the difficulty will go up exponentially even if they somehow make it through the third wave. The system might even send ten Level 50 epic bosses to each entrance at Wave 10.

We can only hope Dragonspear realises soon that this is an impossible quest that isnt meant to be cleared and let the system kill that girl.

Chau Yu was having a headache, but he still faithfully did his duty of informing the squad of the incoming enemies. With his eyes focused on Bloodless Bladester and Chan Ka Loks side, he started blasting away while keeping things concise.

Redhound, unlisted on any rankings. A famous assassin in Empyreon and the top assassin of Traceless Floreal. You should be familiar with the other player.

The other player, upon exchanging weird glances with Greenstone, immediately yelled, Why are you here!

Greenstone only stared at the man who wielded not a weapon but a tobacco pipe. He was Goemon from Assassination Coalition.

A familiar face also appeared at Drako Yaus side. The man was donned in a suit of silvery armour and had a buckler instead of the popular choice, a tower shield.

Collis pulled his bowstring; he wanted to get the boring quest over with already. The bandit martial was charging in with Dash, along with Firefly who also sprung into action albeit at a slower pace due to her class disadvantage.

As usual, the boss yours. Ill handle those two, said Bloodless Bladester.

Chan Ka Lok nodded and replied, Stay safe. He knew he wasnt up for the task of going up against two top players yet.

Collis arrow whizzed past them. He had learnt a skill from an encounter quest, Weighty Arrow. It imbued his attacks with the status Thousand Catties, which lowered the enemys movement speed by a fixed percentage and could stack infinitely. His enemies would turn immobile and become living targets after getting hit by enough of his arrows. As such, anyone who was hit by over three of his arrows was basically dead.

However, Bloodless Bladester specialised in evasive manoeuvres. His unique utilisation of Dash was achieved by synergising his deep understanding of the skill and his exceptional balance. Unlike Drako Yau or Greenstones ancient footwork, it was a technique that was only usable in the game because of its dependence on the Dash skill.

Dash increased a players movement speed, but charging skills were usually interrupted when the player attacked or was attacked. Bloodless Bladesters trick was to sprint in choppy steps. When others took only three steps to cover a certain distance, hed split it up into nine steps while maintaining the same movement speed. This allowed him to make abrupt changes in movement direction whenever he saw an incoming attack. However, it was extremely taxing on ones physique and balance, which was why no one could replicate it despite him openly sharing his secret.

Collis face fell when he saw Bloodless Bladester dodging his arrows easily. He was hoping to put on a good show for Firefly, yet Bloodless Bladesters seemingly casual evasions only made him look incompetent.

Hmph! Collis ramped up his firing speed.

All his attribute points were invested into Dexterity. He was extremely agile and could rapid-fire his bow, though at the cost of abysmal survivability. With Weighty Arrow, his focus was on landing shots instead of dishing out damage. The best way to achieve that was to bring up his Attack Speed as much as possible, so all his points were spent on Dexterity.
