Chapter 35

14 min read3,577 words

At the bottom of the cliff, players gradually gathered, totaling over twenty. They all gathered in front, surrounding a bonfire, completely unconcerned about the few people on the cliff.

Firstly, Li Shier was already marked red, and many points were marked, with many people able to identify his location. Secondly, Gong Er was the main character of the plot, and the elite squad responsible for apprehending the main character of the plot naturally had ways to locate her.

With the two main targets under control, what could the other minor players do in front of them?

More and more people arrived, making them both happy and annoyed, with mixed feelings—

"Damn, another one. The bounty will be split even thinner. The bounty of several hundred thousand looks like a lot, but with dozens of people sharing, there won't be much left."

"Are you worried about the bounty? I stopped worrying about that long ago. The key is that the Gong family's sixty-four techniques are even harder to obtain!"

"What can we do? Li Shier is really strong, and the elite squad was sent back quite a few times. There aren't enough people."

"Huh? Think about it, this doesn't make sense. Li Shier is only ranked twentieth on the wanted list in the Master World... I remember the last time the elite squad acted, they surrounded and beat up the founder of the Seven-Star Praying Mantis Fist, Wang Yunsheng, but it wasn't this bad. Both the Eight Extremes Fist and the Seven-Star Praying Mantis Fist are high-level. Wang Yunsheng is one of the top thirty in the plot, while Li Shier is just a disciple of Li Shuwen, and he's missing a leg..."

"How can the Eight Extremes Fist and the Seven-Star Praying Mantis Fist be compared? 'Wen has Tai Chi to pacify the world, Wu has the Eight Extremes to stabilize the universe.' Many people say the Eight Extremes Fist is undervalued..."

"I don't know if the Eight Extremes Fist is undervalued, but it's clear that Li Shier has been undervalued over these two days." Someone pointed out sharply, "Gather some people, call for it on the forum, and raise Li Shier's bounty, okay?"

"That's a good idea!" Everyone responded enthusiastically.

As they spoke, a black shadow suddenly fell from the top of the cliff, accompanied by a few crisp sounds. Everyone turned their heads at the sound, and the main character they were discussing, Li Shier, was seen charging at them with a cane, full of energy.

"Li Shier is attacking!" A quick-witted player shouted.

"Damn, does this guy think he's Zhao Zilong, able to enter and exit Changban Slope at will?"

"Did he listen to our conversation and really think he's invincible? Tsk, tsk, tsk, indeed, to make someone fall, first make them crazy."

"Who the hell would praise an NPC's stinky feet if it weren't for a higher bounty?"

"Quick, surround him! Surround him! Cut off his retreat! Don't let him have a chance to go back, just keep him here!"

The players shouted in a chaotic manner, rushing forward with righteous indignation, surrounding Li Shier. However...

"Thud! Thud! Thud!..." The cane and leg kicked in rapid succession, like drumbeats. In one exchange, the fastest player who charged in was sent flying back the same way he came.

Last time they fought, they could handle a few hits, right? The player landed with a dusty face, checked his remaining health, and silently retreated to heal. Suddenly, he heard people around him shouting, "Be careful!"

He turned his head in surprise and saw Li Shier charging from the side. "Thud! Thud! Thud!..." Another round of kicks and punches in the blink of an eye.

"Damn, so many people, and no one helps to block him?" The unfortunate player left his last words and collapsed limply on the ground.

A large group was already on the way. With one less person, there would be one less share of the bounty. Who would block him? The players grumbled inwardly, attacking Li Shier in a chaotic manner, each carefully guarding themselves, fearing they would suffer the same fate. But as they fought, they realized something was wrong.

The Li Shier in front of them seemed like a different person, completely different from before. Unexpected techniques, unexpected rhythm, unexpected power... At first, they really held back, wanting to kill some companions to get more shares of the bounty. Later, they realized something was off, so they stopped holding back, but it was useless.

Once the floodgates were opened, they couldn't be closed!

The Forty-Six Heavenly Kicks made their debut, stunning everyone! The player formation was shattered, and the players rolled on the ground, screaming in agony.

Block? They couldn't block it. The trajectory was too bizarre, far beyond the normal range of judgment. You think he's going left, he goes back; you think he's going right, he goes left. Sometimes it seems the center of gravity has shifted, but when you try to grab him, you still end up twisting him... The center of gravity of two legs and three legs is really different.

Dodge? They couldn't dodge it either. The attacks looked powerful, yet they were unpredictable.

Run? They couldn't run away. With the long spear turned into two legs, Li Shier's attack power was greatly reduced, but he could move freely among the crowd. Since the enemies couldn't block or dodge, he focused on one player, not giving them a chance to retreat and heal, chasing them to death before moving on to the next target.

One by one, the players were taken down...

Li Shier was invincible, unstoppable!

Standing on the cliff, watching Li Shier's fierce battle, Dugu Fu sighed deeply: This time, he had really lost a lot!

It wasn't about the Forty-Six Heavenly Kicks; he hadn't lost on that. On the surface, he gave Li Shier the opportunity for enlightenment, but one must look at the essence—

Even if he hadn't given the opportunity to Li Shier, he couldn't have created it himself. His foundation wasn't solid enough, and he lacked the ability. Even if he spent months or longer solidifying his foundation, he couldn't be sure he could kick the Heavenly Kicks to a high level like Li Shier.

Li Shier had a solid foundation and super-rich combat experience. The power of the Heavenly Kicks exceeded his expectations.

Knowledge comes at different times, and expertise has its own focus. He was a genius in strategy and tactics, but in specific combat techniques... As a player, he was a top expert, but as an NPC, he was still a pure novice.

It might be better to guide Li Shier to enlightenment and then learn from his enlightenment. This way, he not only benefited himself but also made Li Shier owe him a huge favor.

The Eight Extremes Fist, gun-making skills, and internal strength insights he had already obtained were not mentioned. Given Li Shier's character... from now on, he would have a high-level expert at his disposal, how cost-effective!

But the premise was... Li Shier had to survive!

As he himself said, to rescue Gong Er successfully, they could only wait for a miracle. But a miracle is called a miracle because it is rare.

Actually, up to this point, up to this moment, Dugu Fu still had a way to turn things around.

What way?

Too simple. Gong Er was standing right there. A quick stab, and it would be over.

Would she blame him? She was the main character of the plot, and she could come back to life, losing the memory of this time. She really couldn't blame him.

Would Li Shier blame him? Definitely, but he had saved his life, so would he repay kindness with enmity? Besides, Gong Er wasn't really dead; he would just be angry for a while.

But looking at Li Shier's fighting back and then at Gong Er, for some reason, he couldn't bring himself to do it. Sigh, after having emotions, he really had become indecisive... Dugu Fu looked at Gong Er with a melancholy expression.

Hearing his sigh, Gong Er, in the boss's arms, turned to look at him, "Do you really plan to let him take me to my death?"

Dugu Fu rolled his eyes, "The one truly going to his death is him. You will come back to life anyway."

"Does that mean... you don't plan to kill me?" Gong Er blinked her eyes and asked in a clear, childlike voice.
