Chapter 62 - A Long-Distance Conversation

While Ling Yi feeling utterly confused, Kaizer spoke again.

“You’ve caused such a big commotion in our district and made countless people worried. Shouldn’t you give them, us, an explanation?”

Ling Yi subconsciously raised his eyebrows and laughed to himself. “It’s none of my business if the others can’t sleep.” He muttered quietly.

He was just killing monsters to level up normally, and although the progress was indeed a little faster than everybody, his motives and actions were of a simple player.

And he had to explain himself to them because it was beyond their expectations?

The world truly has no logic.

Even though he used the Small Horn’s robotical voice feature, the people below could still hear the indifference in his words.

Kaizer frowned and said with a serious expression, “Don’t worry, we won’t go further with the investigation of your identity. You just need to tell us how you did it.”

“How you are able to eliminate the monsters on the third stage of the Main Road on the third day. You must have a very good secret to becoming stronger, right?”

“If you don’t have it, then you must have a soul of a high-level player, right?”

“Please answer my two questions!”

The loud voice spread to a radius of a hundred meters.

After listening to his words, Ling Yi finally confirmed that the other party’s purpose for coming was nothing more than to be envious of the method he had used to achieve such a feat in just a few days.

But still… He didn’t want to waste time talking to a group of weaklings that he could easily kill.

He picked up the Small Horn again, “I’ll give you ten seconds. Those who disagree with him can leave now.”

When the message passed through the white mist and reached the people’s ears, they burst into chaos.

“He wants us to leave in ten seconds? Are they going to attack us?!”

“Does that mean they’ll come down?”

“Idiot! They’re definitely going to throw meteorites at us!”

“Ha! There’s no punishment for us if we die. Who would be afraid of his threat?”

While the majority of the people were complaining and arguing about Ling Yi’s words, some people made their choices.

“I’m here because I want to be friends with them.”

a middle-aged man shook his head and sighed. Then, he frowned and looked at Kaizer. “But what Kaizer said just now sounds like a threat, kind of. I don’t want them to misunderstand either way.”

After the man said his opinion, he left, leaving the group and more people turning their ire on Kaizer.

“F*ck, does that idiot not have any emotional intelligence? If you’re asking a question, then ask it properly. With such an overbearing attitude, who would answer you?” The golden-haired young man shook his head helplessly and also began to leave.

“That’s right, you can’t even talk nicely. Now that you made this powerful player angry, you still want some information? I’m gonna retreat!”

The rich merchant Arhan looked at the players who were starting to run.

He turned back and glanced at the scouting team he had hired at the last minute. After thinking for a moment, he finally said to them, “It’s a little dangerous here, let’s go back.”

He was also a little dissatisfied with the way Kaizer handled things.

Initially, he was here to seek cooperation with this mysterious newcomer, but with a few words from Kaizer, he had placed the two of them in opposing positions.

If he didn’t leave now, it would be the same as confirming his intention to go against these powerful players.

As a merchant, he didn’t want to make an enemy out of such an “powerful anomaly” for no reason, so it was best for him to leave now.

Within ten seconds, thirty to forty people returned to the main world.

The rest of the people looked at each other, shaking their heads and sighing, or helplessly chuckling.

“They’re clearly fine even if they die, but they actually ran away. What a bunch of cowards.”

And in the middle of the crowd…

Seeing that dozens of people were scared away by the other party’s words, Kaizer was secretly jealous. He quickly picked up the megaphone and shouted at the top of the rock wall again, “Even if you kill us, we won’t stop here. We’ll definitely pester you again in the future, until you give the world a reassuring explanation!”

These two players could wipe out all the monsters in the third stage. If they chose to exterminate them, it would be like a flick of a finger for them.

This was something that everyone knew deep down in their hearts.

If it wasn’t for the fact that there was no penalty for dying before level 10, they wouldn’t have dared to come here.

Meanwhile, on the rock wall, Ling Yi couldn’t help but shake his head, a mocking smile on his face. “Ha! So selfishness prevails, huh? They still want to hide behind ‘people of the world’ excuse?”

He couldn’t be bothered to talk to them.

He crossed his arms naturally and let the Ice Queen attack.

“Don’t kill them. Just freeze them.”

These people’s levels were still low, so simply killing them wouldn’t scare them at all.

So…

Freezing them would be a more powerful deterrent!

If he were to freeze them for a few hours and use up all their time on the God’s Path, who would dare to come and find him in the future?

The Ice Queen nodded slightly, and immediately stretched out her tender white arms, waving it casually at the white mist in the air.

Right on the next second, the white mist seemed to have a mind of its own, quickly descended to the ground, and the fog’s density rose rapidly.

Through the [Eye of Truth], Ling Yi reads the description of the white mist.

[Heavenly Frost Mist]: The third move of the Ice Cloud Divine Art. creates a mist that can spread out according to the master’s thoughts. The user can obtain vision from the mist and freeze all units within the mist.

The third move referred to the third effect.

Some skills had multiple effects, and these skills usually required more Stars Slots.

If a summoned beast’s skill had a star quality level, it would at least be a six or seven-star.

But of course, many effects did not mean that it was powerful. Many 10-star skills only had one effect.

While Ling Yi was examining the effects of this skill, the [Heavenly Frosty Mist] had already sunk to the ground and was beginning to display its freezing ability.

“It’s the mist with the freezing ability! They’re trying to freeze us!”

The frozen rock wall and the human-shaped ice sculptures on it were a constant reminder of its icy ability.

So, as soon as they saw the white fog coming towards them, everyone immediately retreated.

“Don’t be afraid. We’ll go to the shop to buy an unfreezing talisman. As long as you have one, you won’t have to be afraid! ”

“Right! Unfreezing talismans. Buy those unfreezing talismans!”

Everybody in the crowd shouted at their friends, telling them to quickly buy their only chance of survival.

This item was sold in the shop for 5 gold coins per piece.

[Unfreezing Talisman (E)]: Unfreezing the target and preventing it from being frozen for the next 10 seconds. The power of the talisman will weaken when used continuously.

Although it only cost 5 gold coins, some people were reluctant to buy it.

“It’s just to keep us from being frozen for 10 seconds. Spending 5 gold coins is too much!”

It was a little expensive for the weak, but for the majority of the strong players, 5 gold coins was like a piece of cake.

Didn’t you see the top-tier powerhouses of the ultimate map also relied on it to fight against the Ice Spirit?

The white mist had already chased them, and time waited for no one!

Under the threat of being frozen, many players gritted their teeth, bought one, and used it.

In an instant, the area flashed with the blue light, signaling that talisman was being used.
