V O L U M E 2 Dragon and Tiger Meeting Like the Wind and Cloud ​ (Metaphor for heroes meeting each other by chance) chapter 28 Ye Tanming Jian Pavilion Night Quest

When he saw those words, Taoist Qingfeng couldn’t help but be amazed from the bottom of his heart: Does the Tangmen mean he wants to build his own guild and breakthrough in the new district?

Before he could digest his words, the Tangmen said: “After the guild is built, there will be a warehouse where the materials can be stored. We’ve been playing the hero mode by carrying around the drop items on our backs. It would be better to store them in the guild warehouse.”

Taoist Qingfeng: “……”

He wants to make a guild so they could have a guild warehouse to store items?

What kind of wonderful reason is this?

Liu Chuan said: “I don’t have time to manage the guild so let’s first set-up a guild and store things in the warehouse.”

“…..” Taoist Qingfeng was speechless for a moment before typing, “Okay. Let’s talk about it later.”

The six mobs in the right corridor were quickly defeated. Liu Chuan said on the team channel: “Master, I come down. The six monsters on the left corridor are up to you. Gather them all at once!”

Li Xiang: “OK!”

Li Xiang was very smart. He watched Liu Chuan pull the monsters before and already knew how to do it. He took a small rest to fill up his blood before taking the Buddha beads and running to the left corridor. He pulled the six monster to the middle of the yard without breaking a sweat.

Liu Chuan gave a thumbs up: “Very good progress!”

Li Xiang sent a smiley face: “Hei hei*!”

* Onomatopoeia of mischievous laughter

Everyone repeated the same steps just now and continued to fight with the mobs. At the same time, the six patrol mobs from the right corridor were also refreshed.

After the mobs in the front yard die, they will continue to reincarnate for five times. The total number of monsters is 60—12 monsters refreshed 5 times. The reason for this setting is to allow players to gain more experience and the experience of killing one small monster in this instance is remarkably high.

Li Xiang asked: “Just play five rounds like this?”

Liu Chuan said, “Yes. The three of us are very carefree up on the roof. Master, it’s hard work for you.”

Li Xiang waved his concern away boldly. “It’s okay, it’s okay! I’m just afraid that the red potion I brought isn’t enough.”

Liu Chuan said, “I will give you some.”

After that, he threw 20 bottles of red potion from his sachet into the yard.

Li Xiang ran over to pick it up.

Then Wu Zewen also learned from Liu Chuan’s actions and threw a set of red potions into the yard.

Li Xiang hurriedly said, “It’s enough! It’s enough!” As he quickly ran over to pick it up.

Immediately afterwards, Taoist Qingfeng also threw a set of red potions into the yard.

Li Xiang: “…you just want to make me run back and forth and tire me out, don’t you?”

Liu Chuan sent a bunch of smiley faces: “Pick it up, pick it up! Or the set of red potions will disappear. Those potions also cost money.”

Li Xiang ran over to pick up red-faced.

Why is there a sudden feeling of being harassed by teammates?

Li Xiang, who was exhausted, wanted to cry as he looked at the three long-range skills that were easily thrown down the roof!

Soon, all 60 monsters were defeated and the No. 1 boss of the Ye Tan Ming Jian Pavilion, the paraphernalia of the guard of the Blood Garment Sect, appeared.

The graceful woman dressed in red fell from the sky with a cold laughter: “Yo, so many knights coming late at night, are you here to see me?”

Everyone was collectively speechless.

The voice actors invited by the officials of the game are very dedicate and they imitated the voice of the female demon to perfection. In the middle of the night, it makes people’s scalp feel numb!

The Blood Garment Sect is the villain in the game. They were a typical demon organization and have been opposing the Zhengdao Sect* where the players are**. The disciples in the sect are ruthless cold-blooded murders who don’t blink when killing people. It is said that their big red clothes are drenched with human blood. Wushuang***, the leader of the Blood Garment was the ultimate level 70 boss of the Blood Garment Sect Headquarters, who could suck blood and is very naughty. Countless players were suffering terribly before they were exterminated by him.

* The correct path/the right way

** Basically all the eight major sects belong to the Zhengdao Sect or follow the “correct path or right way”

*** means matchless or incomparable

In the early stages, these hall masters and guardians were basically bosses of the small instances and were the killing targets of important plot missions.

The bosses of Ye Tanming Jian Pavilion instance were the sisters Mei Xuelin and Mei Xueji, both of whom are the attendants of the Blood Garment Sect.

The officials were very considerate and let the boss say a lot of opening remarks which was very convenient for the team to brainstorm and arrange their style of play.

Liu Chuan immediately typed on the team channel: “Boss No. 1 is an assassin and can’t established a fixed hatred. She will randomly chase one person to assassinate. The critical strike is very high and the person she is chasing can easily be killed within seconds. As long as one person is killed within seconds, she will violently release a ranged move that causes the team to be destroyed in an instant, so we must avoid her pusuit! Absolutely cannot die! Everyone stand in the middle of the yard and those who is named must immediately run around the outer circle of the corridor clockwise! Pay attention to your light steps!”

The four immediately gathered in the middle of the courtyard in accordance with the command.

After the boss finished his opening remarks, his eyes suddenly turned red, and a line of prompts appeared on Li Xiang’s screen at the same time: “Mei Xuelin is very interested in you…”

Li Xiang turned around and ran, running to the outside corridor in a clockwise circle while the other three attacked without pressure.

The boss’s speed is very fast, and Li Xiang uses his light step skills frantically like he was being chased by a wolf, running in circles and always keeping a distance of one meter from the boss.

The boss’s pursuit time is 10 seconds and within that 10 seconds, the other three bursts out long-range attacks which wiped out 5% of her blood.

Then, the boss paused for a while, as if thinking about which unlucky player to chase next.

Li Xiang barely breathed a sigh out of relief when a line prompt popped up on his screen again: “Mei Xuelin is very interested in you…”

Why is it him again!

Li Xiang reluctantly ran around in circles with the boss again.

10 seconds later…

“Mei Xuelin is very interested in you…”

Li Xiang yelled as he ran: “Crap! This boss is defective!”

Liu Chuan smiled heartlessly: “This girl has a crush on you. Please run. If she catches up with you, you will be ruined.”

Taoist Qingfeng also sent a message: “Jiayou*, master.”

* Cheering Li Xiang on; can be used as a form of encouragement

Wu Zewen also followed suit: “Jiayou.”

Li Xiang wanted to vomit blood!

Do you still have sympathy for your friends?!

Liu Chuan typed a reminder: “Pay attention to your light step endurance.”

Although Li Xiang was very upset with being chased around by the boss, Tangmen’s timely reminder made him think that it was the Tangmen who taught him the important details when she ran around the bandit’s stronghold. Using that knowledge with this kind of boss was simply too useful! Otherwise, according to his previous operation, half of the light step endurance would be gone while being chased by the boss. Once he’s killed in seconds, the boss could easily wipe out the entire team as soon as she goes berserk!

Li Xiang immediately responded: “I haven’t forgotten! Light step endurance is enough, don’t worry!”

As soon as he finished, the boss’s fourth pursuit began.

“Mei Xuelin is very interested in you…”

Li Xiang was driven crazy: “Damn it! Why is it me every time…”

Liu Chuan continued to happily throw rocks at Li Xiang: “Maybe she wants you to practice your light step skills.”

Taoist Qingfeng: “Jiayou.”

Wu Zewen: “Jiayou.”

Li Xiang sent a row of blood-spitting expressions and continued to take the boss in circles.

This type of choosing is randomly determined by the system and the boss will chase at anyone, regardless of occupation or regardless of men and women. Li Xiang was chosen on four random calls which could be described by the saying in online games, that is: “Extremely black face!*”

* Very unlucky

Li Xiang was too unlucky and was chased around by the boss for several laps. On the fifth lap, the boss was finally willing to change her target and turned her head to chase Wu Zewen.

On Wu Zewen’s screen, a familiar line prompt appeared: “Mei Xuelin is very interested in you…”

It was the first time he played an online game and couldn’t react for while. He was only a half beat slow and was almost hit by the boss. Fortunately, Liu Chuan was quick-witted and threw a claw over and directly poured Wu Zewen to his side. Wu Zewen started to run around in circles and finally kept a distance from the boss.

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief! It was really dangerous just now!

Wu Zewen typed on the team channel: “Sorry, I couldn’t react on time.”

Liu Chuan smiled and said, “It’s okay. You’re just starting. Take your time.”

Wu Zewen replied with “en” and then added: “I’ll go practice my light step skills later.”

Liu Chuan felt relieved. He had always admired the seriousness of classmate Wu Zewen. The xueba was very smart and his hands were extremely fast. If he studied the game seriously, he would make rapid progress. As a novice, it’s normal to make this kind of mistake.

Although the four of them officially formed a team to fight for the first time, under Liu Chuan’s command, their cooperation became more and more tacit.

The instance that destroyed many passer-by teams, as long as you find the rhythm, you will feel extremely relaxed when you cooperate well.

Soon, Boss No. 1 was killed and a shiny “package dropped by Mei Xuelin” appeared on the ground.

Liu Chuan said, “Master, touch it.”

The instance boss will drop a package after he dies. The package contains rewards such as equipment and materials which can only be opened after touching the package. This is affectionately called “touching the corpse” by the players. Touching the corpse was also a kind of game because the rewards of the package are random and differs from person to person. If you’re lucky, one can get precious materials but if you’re not, you might not even be able to get a purple equipment.

Therefore, after the team finishes defeating the boss, they will let the luckier people touch the equipment.

Li Xiang said: “My luck is extremely bad today! You saw the boss chase me several times but you still want me to touch it.”

Liu Chuan smiled and said, “The boss chased you a few times because it likes you. If you touch the package, maybe we will get more pieces!”

Li Xiang sent an expression of vomiting blood.

Being liked by the boss is not worth being proud of at all!

Their teammates had no opinion so Li Xiang could only grit his teeth and touch the package on the ground. A reward message popped up on the screen at the same time—--

Weapon: Heaven and Earth Sword, Level 30. Suitable for: Wudang Sect.

Weapon: Water Cloud Whip, Level 30. Suitable for: Five Poisons Sect.

Armor: Flower Frost Armor, Level 30. Suitable for: Wudang, Emei, Xiaoyao.

Liu Chuan immediately sent a thumbs up: “Not bad! Two purple weapons and a spell-based armor which could be used by our team.”

Li Xiang was also shocked: “This boss really gives face!”

The boss of the hero instance usually only drops one weapon, or one to two purple equipment. Li Xiang can get two weapons, which was indeed very lucky. After all, weapons were the most important in the early stages and other equipment that could protect the body. If the level of the weapons wasn’t enough, forget the boss, one wouldn’t even be able to kill a player.

The distribution mode* of the team happens to be distribution by the captain. Liu Chuan, as the captain, simply divided the equipment according to occupation. The sword and armor were given to Taoist Qingfeng while the whip was given to Zewen. Then, the team assembled and continued to the backyard of the Ye Tanming Jian Pavilion.

* Distribution of the dropped items

Unlike the front yard, the mobs in the backyard of the Ye Tanming Jian Pavilion are very easy to fight and there was no negative thing such as fixation. Just get the mobs together and attack them until they die… However, the boss in the backyard is very difficult to fight!

There are different kinds of bosses in online games and they strive to use their skills to play with the players to death. Just now, Mei Xuelin was the kind of boss who chased around with no fixed hatred. She will constantly call and choose players, allowing players to adjust their positions over and over again. As long as one person reacts slowly and is killed by her, she will violently destroy the entire group. In this case, it’s very painful to encounter pig teammates*.

* Lousy; more of a hindrance than help

In the backyard, there is another annoying little brother-type of boss!

This kind of boss will constantly summon her younger brother to protect her which is particularly annoying. Some bosses call the younger brother to help attack people, some call the younger brother to control players while others will call the younger brother to add blood.

The backyard boss is a summon the younger brother to add blood type which the players nicknamed as: the blood cow that can’t be beaten to death.

The four of them quickly cleared the mobs in the backyard. While the boss was muttering his opening remarks, Liu Chuan immediately told them the strategy: “The style of play is simple. Master, pull the boss to the center of the field where I put a mark. Wudang, stand far away from the main output. Five Poisons and I will stand on separate sides.”

“Every 15 seconds, the boss will summon a Blood Garment Sect Guard to protect her. As soon as the guard refreshes, he will rush to the boss and can add blood to her when he is within five meters. Adding 5% of blood at a time is very annoying. The guards will not take any damage even if you attack them and must be controlled with a strong crowd control skill. I’ll hook the guards. Since the cooldown of the Tangmen’s Flying Claw is 30 seconds, I can’t control all the guards by myself. This is where the Five Poisons come in.”

Liu Chuan paused: “Wife, have you learned the skills of the Five Poisons Level 30 Long Whip School?”

Being called, Wu Zewen naturally replied on the team channel: “Level 30 Long Whip?”

Liu Chuan said: “That’s right. The Long Whip School can throw their whip and bring the opponent in front of them, which accompanies a dizzying effect.”

Wu Zewen said, “I learned it.”

Liu Chuan said with a smile: “Very good. The refresh position of the guards is very random. We need to walk around and look at the whole venue. Take the guards quickly, as to not let them approach the boss. I’ll take the first guard to refresh, and you take the second one. The cooldown of my Flying Claw Skill and your whip is 30 seconds, but the refresh time of the guards is 15 seconds. We must cooperate well!”

Tangmen pulls the first one, while the Five Poisons grab the second one. The Tangmen’s cooldown time is just right when the third one is released. If you let the guard go and it adds 5% of blood to the boss, then the other teammates fighting the boss for a few minutes is tantamount to nothing.

In this way, the guards will constantly add blood and they will fall into a vicious cycle here the more they fight, the more the boss gains blood.

There used to be many teams that cried when they attacked this boss. The refresh position of the guard was completely random, even refreshing next to the boss. After ten minutes of fighting, the boss’s blood volume actually returned to 100% which made people want to throw their keyboard in anger!

These guards must be controlled and not allowed to approach the boss. It would definitely be too late for just a single person to control the boss so there must be at least two people to keep the guards away that have perfect and seamless cooperation.

There are many sects with control skills in the game. Within just their team, the whip of the Five Poisons can bring the opponent in front of them, the flying claw of the Tangmen can pull people, the Wudang has the acupoint long-range skill and the Shaolin’s dragon claw can attract the mobs.

Liu Chuan asked Wu Zewen to complete this task mainly to train him. It’s certainly safer to give the mission to Wudang, since he is already an expert and wouldn’t need his guidance. Wu Zewen is still a novice and it’s good for him to practice more.

After Liu Chuan arranged this style of play, he sent a smile and thoughtfully asked: “Wife, is there a problem?”

This guy calling Wu Zewen wife is getting more and more comfortable, isn’t he? Knowing that Wu Zewen is a boy, you still call wife so naturally, are you so thick-skinned?

Wu Zewen was very calm. He pushed his glasses and said seriously: “No problem. Give it a try.”

Liu Chuan smiled and said, “Very good. Get ready to fight!”
