Chapter 61

Dawu Xiaotian's face was cold, and he remained silent.

Like Li Yanxin and the other three, most people, when playing games, would rather be killed than lose face when surrounded by others.

But in Dawu Xiaotian's current situation, it wasn't a matter of whether he was willing to lose face. In other words, Dawu Xiaotian couldn't even die if he wanted to! In reality, when caught by villains, heroes could bite the small poison packet hidden in their mouths or bash their heads to death, but in this game, the system wouldn't allow players to randomly pull out a knife to self-harm. However, not being able to commit suicide didn't mean he had to sit and wait for death.

He quietly took out a return scroll and opened it.

Just as the white light began to shine, a sword with a shimmering glow interrupted Dawu Xiaotian's return to the city. Then came a light laugh: "Bro, you're leaving without a word, making me lose face, right? Let's all four of us see you off, don't be shy, it's no trouble at all."

Yang Ye lightly stabbed Dawu Xiaotian with his knife, grinning at the numbers floating above his head.

Dawu Xiaotian's face turned red, and he panted heavily.

His eyes darted around, looking for a way to escape. Seeing the three newbies quickly surrounding him, his face darkened even more.

Li Yanxin ran up to Yang Ye in a rage, said nothing, and started stabbing Dawu Xiaotian with a white board knife, the damage numbers floating at a steady pace. He laughed and said, "Hahaha, Xiao Di, Orange, come and stab this guy to death quickly, damn it, he just dropped Orange's equipment! I won't let you off! Xiao Ye, keep a close eye on him, don't let him run or attack." He stabbed a few more times.

"Damn it, New B, slow down, let me stab a few times!!" Wu Di also shouted and rushed forward. He was clearly a priest, but he stabbed with great effort, though the damage was less than the last two digits of Dawu Xiaotian's defense.

"I love this kind of bad thing the most..." Orange, the archer, also joined in, aiming her arrows at Dawu Xiaotian's crotch...

Dawu Xiaotian's face turned purple with anger. Being bullied by these newbies was a huge loss of face, and he would definitely seek revenge!

He glared at the Battle of Promises, who had blocked him on both sides, one with a charge and the other with flight, leaving him no hope of escape...

Since he couldn't escape, he would kill two of them to take them down with him!

As soon as this thought came to mind, Dawu Xiaotian immediately put it into action. He lightly shook his staff, and a faint, almost imperceptible lightning power leaped to his fingertips, forming the Chain Lightning skill...

Chain Lightning is one of the skills a mage can learn after the first class change, dealing massive lightning damage to the first target in a direction and has a chance to paralyze the enemy, reducing their movement speed. The Chain Lightning can then jump to another target within a certain range, dealing 40% less damage. A level one Chain Lightning can attack up to two targets.

Yang Ye, who was fully focused on Dawu Xiaotian, naturally knew his plan and was watching—[Dawu Xiaotian is about to use the Chain Lightning skill!]

Dawu Xiaotian's lips curled into a smile.

Yang Ye's lips also curled, and he said a few words to Liliana, then smiled similarly.

Both had their own plans, but Li Yanxin and the other three had no idea, still laughing and stabbing Dawu Xiaotian.

Wu Di had just stabbed, waited for the character's pre-action, and immediately moved forward to stab again. At the same time, Dawu Xiaotian finally saw his chance and acted...

Although the three were level 10, Wu Di, as a priest, had thin skin and little health, making him the first target, and Dawu Xiaotian naturally chose him.

Seeing Wu Di move forward to stab him again, Dawu Xiaotian suddenly raised his staff, pointing the tip at Wu Di. He then merged his right index and middle fingers, the other three fingers folded, and quickly placed them on his left elbow, shouting—

"Chain Lightning!"

"Crack!"

As soon as the skill was cast, a dark blue lightning bolt rapidly shot towards Wu Di. Wu Di, who was about to move forward, never expected the passive enemy to resist, and with such speed, he couldn't react in time...

However, his inability to react didn't mean Yang Ye couldn't. He had the Miner's Hat to alert him!

As soon as the Chain Lightning was cast, Yang Ye immediately moved, using the Royal Slash to quickly intercept the lightning's path...

Liliana also reacted quickly, changing from her usual cute and dazed appearance. As soon as the skill was cast, she sprang forward with a dark blue flame under her feet, disappearing from her original position and reappearing between Yang Ye and Wu Di...

Dawu Xiaotian, with a fierce expression, watched the Chain Lightning leap forward. The timing was perfect, and he thought, "Unless you're a famous player on the leaderboard, who can dodge? Who can dodge?! Hahaha..."

But suddenly, two figures appeared, making him pause...

The Chain Lightning surged forward, then suddenly hit an object—enemies! It dealt damage and then instantly jumped to another enemy, dealing more damage!

"1890!"

"1964!"

The damage was massive, but no one died...

Because the Chain Lightning hit Yang Ye and then jumped to Liliana.

"Damn!" Dawu Xiaotian cursed.

As soon as he cursed, he was lifted into the air, not because he could fly like Liliana, but because he was pulled up.

"Gravity Control!"

Pulling Dawu Xiaotian over, Yang Ye slashed at his face with two quick strikes and said with a light laugh, "Pretty smart, but not smart enough."

Hearing Yang Ye's "taunt," Dawu Xiaotian immediately became furious, "I damn you, Battle of Promises, you wait, this isn't over! I damn you, if I don't make you delete your account, I'll delete mine! Damn you!"

"Whatever..." Yang Ye sneered and shouted, "Guys, let's send him back to the city!"

Li Yanxin and the other three, who had just woken up, were now furious, especially Wu Di, who was Dawu Xiaotian's target and the most angry. He was the first to run up and continued to stab with his white board staff, shouting, "For targeting me, for targeting me, for..."

"Damn you all, wait for me..." A惨call, a white light, and Dawu Xiaotian disappeared, dead and returned to the city.

He was also looted by Yang Ye for his most valuable silver staff.

The four of them thoroughly abused Dawu Xiaotian, feeling relieved and laughing, "Hahaha, so satisfying, Xiao Ye, you're awesome, you're awesome, I admire you so much."

"Right, right, Xiao Ye, please take care of us more in the future..." Wu Di also said.

"Hehe, Xiao Ye, who is this cute girl, hahaha, when did you get a girlfriend?" Orange said with a lecherous smile.

Yang Ye glared at him and said, "What girlfriend? My girlfriend isn't here. This is my follower, Liliana."

"Follower? Is she powerful?" Li Yanxin asked.

"Of course, she's powerful! You'll see in the future. Now, let's go and clear a dungeon, come on!"

"Hehe, let's go, it's so much fun to have a pro lead us!" the three said with a grin.

...

After leveling up to 10 again by grinding some monsters, they headed to the Werewolf Plague dungeon.

Outside the Werewolf Plague dungeon.

Yang Ye said they were waiting for one more person, so the four of them chatted and laughed, with Li Yanxin and the others envying Yang Ye's follower Liliana and saying they would get a prettier one in the future.

After about ten minutes, the person they were waiting for finally arrived—Wochitaotao.

Yang Ye introduced everyone, and when he mentioned Wochitaotao's hidden class, the three were amazed again. Wochitaotao then mentioned Yang Ye's achievements in the game, which earned her a chorus of boos from the three, showing the difference in treatment for friends.

After another ten minutes, the five were still outside the Werewolf Plague dungeon...

Well, they encountered the same problem as the frogs before, with Yang Ye constantly entering and exiting the dungeon without actually going in...

"Xiao Ye, go in, go in..." Li Yanxin shouted.

"Stop entering and exiting, I'm about to get dizzy..." Wu Di groaned.

"..." Cheng Jun, who was already dizzy.

Even Wochitaotao, who hadn't spoken, said, "Promise, what are you doing? There's nothing to see..."

Yang Ye wasn't worried and said with a smile, "Don't worry, just wait a bit."

This time, they were entering the Abyss mode, which was different from other dungeon modes. The Abyss mode doesn't drop the equipment players use, but the experience is extremely high, and it drops some strange items, some of which are useless, like fireworks, purely for show; others are very useful, like material recipes, which have value.

Each person can only enter the Abyss mode once a week, regardless of which dungeon they enter. The official website has an interesting description of the Abyss mode: "What comes out is not a legendary item, but it is a legendary item."

It sounds confusing, but it's easy to understand: the items inside are not of the highest grade, but they are extremely useful, comparable to legendary items.

This is why Yang Ye wanted to try it out, using the Werewolf Plague to test the waters.

After entering and exiting dozens of times, Yang Ye's eyes finally lit up, and he shouted, "We're in!"

This news was more exhilarating than winning a good PK. Hearing Yang Ye's shout, Li Yanxin and the others were moved to tears, "Xiao Ye, you finally decided to go in..."

"Yeah, it's not easy to enter a dungeon with a pro..."

"I won't... won't... I still want to go with Xiao Ye..."

Yang Ye looked at the three and laughed, then directly confirmed.

The light gradually faded, and the view became clear. When it was bright again, they were back in the familiar dungeon, but looking at everything in front of them, Yang Ye felt a sense of familiarity and strangeness...

[System: You have entered the Werewolf Plague dungeon!]

[System: You have activated the Abyss mode, the狂欢of the Abyss has begun!]
