Chapter 106
Street fighting is the most difficult terrain for players to adapt to in PK.
Because of its narrow width, high depth, and mostly straight length, it is a significant limitation for both long-range and close combat.
However, for Xia Mo and the male sorcerer she was chasing, this long and narrow back street was as smooth as walking on flat ground, with almost no restrictions.
Although the Night Warlock's moves are insidious, their range is not as wide as that of the Star Officer. In order to avoid having his mana bar sucked away again, Xia Mo attacked precisely at the maximum distance of his skill release each time.
The skill exploded in the small alley, creating a dazzling display of special effects. If it were any other player, facing the number one player on the leaderboard, they would have been frightened to the point of their legs going weak and begging for mercy on their knees.
But this male warlock dodged with great ease. With his agility slightly higher than Xia Mo's, he fled left and right in the alley, successfully avoiding the attacks at very tricky angles each time.
He is a PVP expert, that's how Xia Mo defined him in his mind.
She glanced at her dwindling mana bar, her brows twitching slightly, then she raised her hand and threw a normal attack right in front of the warlock's escape route.
This skill is very monotonous and its attack power is not strong, but its advantage is that it consumes very low MP, only consuming 15 magic points at a time. It is an output move for star official players when they are extremely short of mana.
The warlock had just sucked away all her mana. Although she later replenished it with a large bottle of mana medicine, Xingguan was a well-known mana-consuming expert after all. Only a few bottles of mana medicine were not enough.
At this time, the CD of her potion had just ended. Normally, she could have replenished another bottle of mana, but Xia Mo did not do so. Instead, she used normal attacks to block the opponent.
The warlock's escape route was temporarily blocked by the skill for 1 second, and he was forced to pause, but he immediately realized that this was the most useless ordinary skill of the star official. Suddenly, the corners of his mouth curled up in a smug smile.
"You're out of mana." He turned around and gave Xia Mo a sly smile.
A magic profession without mana is like a warrior going to the battlefield without a sword, and the end result is that he will be slaughtered.
The male sorcerer who was originally preparing to escape suddenly changed his mind. Instead of continuing to run forward, he narrowed his eyes and looked again at Xia Mo, who was at the end of his rope.
"Tell me, if I get the world's number one kill, will I become a hero of this continent?" he said with a smile.
Xia Mo also smiled, but it was not a warm smile. Instead, it was like a cold plum tree in the deep night of December, cold and proud, never giving in to anyone.
"You can try." She arched her brows, "If you don't mind dying in an ugly way."
The man riding a donkey and watching the turtle, who had been hiding in the corner of the alley, felt a pang in his heart.
He knew Mo Se was very powerful, otherwise she wouldn't have been able to sit at the top of the list, but the problem was that no matter how powerful she was, she still needed mana, right? Even a skilled cook can't cook without rice, let alone a profession like Star Official that relies so heavily on mana.
It was obvious that Xia Molan was not enough. He was so nervous that his heart was in his throat.
The person involved, Xia Mo, was as calm as ever.
As a ranged fighter, she, contrary to her usual behavior, abandoned ranged combat and instead activated her icy bloodline, accelerating towards the opponent.
Without acceleration, Xingguan's agility is not as good as that of the warlock, but once she uses the acceleration skill, she can surpass the opponent in seconds!
Before the male sorcerer could react, Xia Mo had already approached him and touched his body with his weapon.
The warlock thought she was making a last-ditch effort and didn't react much to her actions. Instead, he raised his warlock staff, ready to give her a fatal blow - Soul Drain.
[Soul Extraction] is the Warlock's signature single-target damage skill. Qingshui had used this skill early on when he was fighting against the Black Domain Kingdom's 2nd team in Dragon Valley. It has a similar effect to the Star Officer's single-target [Star Destruction], except that it does not have a freeze effect like [Star Destruction].
However, for group support professions such as warlocks, it doesn't matter whether there is freezing or not. After all, they still have skills such as Life Inspiration and Explosive Armor Break that can buff the group.
The warlock began to chant, a determined look on his face.
However, at the moment the chanting ended, the soul extraction did not occur. Instead, he received a system prompt that he was currently prohibited from attacking for two rounds.
Why?!
Before the warlock could figure it out, a pop-up window popped up on his astonished face: [Poisoned! -250]
The three bright red numbers 2, 5, and 0 seemed to be mocking his intelligence. The warlock finally realized that he was poisoned!
So, when she pointed the weapon at herself just now, it wasn't an attack at all, but a poisoning of him???
I'm speechless. She's clearly a ranged damage dealer, so why is she using the same moves as an assassin?!
The smile on his lips froze instantly. At this moment, the warlock felt like a joke and couldn't help but curse: "You don't follow the rules!"
The liar actually scolded the deceived person for not following the rules. This was the first time Xia Mo heard this theory.
"Before you curse at others, take a piss and look at yourself first to see if you, a liar, have the right to say such things."
Because she had just taken the purple potion and the potion was on cooldown again, her mana bar was still at the bottom, so she simply put away the Star Staff and took out a small knife with almost no attack power.
Yes, it’s still a knife.
But this time the purpose is not to dismantle the opponent's equipment, because that would be boring.
The warlock's equipment is very simple to wear. Compared to the warrior and paladin, who need to wear two layers of armor, taking it off the warlock is a disrespect for her disassembly skills!
And didn’t the other party scold her for not using the Star Official’s skills?
Well, she really didn't need it, and would just use this knife to fight him.
-1, -1, -1...
Xia Mo raised his knife and stabbed forward again and again.
Although the damage is not great, it is extremely insulting!
The warlock was so angry that he wanted to vomit blood. He subconsciously wanted to fight back, but was reminded that he was still prohibited from attacking. He had no choice but to retreat in panic.
The other party was just trying to disgust him on purpose, so there was no need for him to bother with her!
Thinking of this, he quickly rushed out of the alley, but at this moment, the knife flew towards his back and pierced into his flesh with a "swish".
Thinking it was just a -1, the warlock didn't take it seriously and simply ran out of the alley. He was halfway out, about to escape to the main street of the city, when a red number of tens of thousands suddenly popped up above his head!
That number is none other than his total health when he is at full health!
How could this be...?!
Before he could figure it out, his vision went gray and he was knocked down with a thud.
Shit! He's dead?!
He had never died in such an unclear manner before. He was so angry that he was shaking all over (of course he was not really shaking, after all, he was already lying dead). The warlock lay on the ground, staring in confusion, unable to understand why the knife just now took his life?
Xia Mo knew that he couldn't figure it out, but she wouldn't explain.
What a joke! The White Tiger Star Officer was a hidden profession that she had worked so hard to obtain, and it only had two passive skills. Wouldn't it be like revealing her true identity if she told others about it?
[Advanced Kill: Any spell or physical attack has a 10% chance of inflicting a one-hit kill on the enemy target (limited to 1 target)]
She had stabbed so many times before just to trigger this 10% chance.
Even though you can only knock down -1 each time, as long as you do it quickly and often enough, there will be no target you can't knock down!
Ignoring the warlock's confused and shocked expression, Xia Mo walked over, squatted down, and gently pinched his chin. His brows returned to their initial coldness: "So, when do you plan to pay back the 600 gold you owe my friend?"

——Oh my god! This is something that a big shot on the list did!
Half an hour later, a post went viral on the forum.
There is no need to explain the reason for the popularity. Anyway, as long as the words like "number one", "number one in the world", or "number one in the mainland" are included, even the most meaningless posts can attract the attention of players.
When seeing this title, many people’s first reaction is: The melon is coming!
No matter what the post says, just click in and leave a message first, and then slowly read the content.
Xu Xiaobei was the one who left a message without even reading the main text. However, compared to other people's normal comments like "pressing their paws" and "reserving a seat in the front row", her message seemed a bit out of place.
[This is so funny! It's her again? Why is she always stirring up trouble? Can someone this unworthy of their position be banned?]
After posting it, she scrolled to the top of the post with satisfaction and read it with relish.
There are many people who have the same mentality as Xu Xiaobei. After all, everyone has a desire to see celebrities make a fool of themselves. However, some people do not express it or comment publicly due to their self-morality or rule constraints.
As a result, a rather strange trend appeared under the entire post, with a lot of people pressing their paws, spreading flowers, and cracking melon seeds. Only Xu Xiaobei's post, which was more than one row long, attracted everyone's attention.
Doesn't this person feel that his painting style doesn't fit in? 】
[Uh, it feels like she has some mental issues... (Not insulting, just an objective discussion)]
[She really didn't even read the article and just started cursing?]
[Hahahaha this is hilarious! I caught a brainless keyboard warrior on the scene!]
Meanwhile, the more Xu Xiaobei read the article, the more he felt something was amiss. Strangely, wasn't this supposed to be a post exposing Xia Mo's negative material? How did it become a backhanded praise of her?
What about using a knife to break the sorcerer's defense, and how he eliminated evil for the people and became a great hero of the royal city...? Are you crazy?
I was expecting Xia Mo to be scolded like a sieve by the players, but who knew that the author of this post was a complete clickbait!
"What a crap post! Who the hell wrote that?"
Xu Xiaobei was sitting in the pavilion in the front yard of the guild. When he realized that he was being played a fool, he was so angry that he kicked the stone table hard!
"You licking dog, go ahead and lick me. I wish you will lick me until you have nothing left!"
After cursing the poster viciously, Xu Xiaobei prepared to close the post and leave the guild.
The news of the treasure chest she spent a lot of money on last time was somehow known to others, causing her to be beaten to death by a group of ghost-faced tree spirits. When she returned to the woods, she found that the treasure chest had been opened!!!
God knows how angry and upset she was at that time. She just squatted in the woods and cried loudly without any image.
However, she has no friends around her now. Even if she cries until her eyes are red and her voice is hoarse, no one can comfort her.
At that moment, she suddenly missed the days when she had Xiaoyu and Xia Mo to help her. With them around, her problems could always be solved. It was not like now... She even had to rely on herself to get the rare materials required to join the guild!
Of course, for someone like Xu Xiaobei, the reason she remembered Xia Mo's kindness was purely because the latter was her free nanny and bodyguard. However, when Xia Mo threw away this value in front of her, in Xu Xiaobei's heart, Xia Mo suddenly became her enemy.
There is a saying that you can't wake up a person who is pretending to be asleep. This also applies to Xu Xiaobei. No one can change her extremely selfish character. So, instead of wasting your precious energy on her, or even getting scolded for wasting it, it is better to stay away from her and keep the maximum distance from such a person who cannot bring any positive emotions.
Of course, Xu Xiaobei would not understand these truths. She only knew that she was crying, but there was no one around to comfort her, and she felt very pitiful.
Then, as if possessed by some mysterious force, she suddenly searched for Xia Mo's ID again, opened the dialog box, and sent a pitiful expression.
However, at the same time as she sent the message, the system popped up the message "You have been blocked by the other party". In an instant, her grievances turned into uncontrollable anger!
And this anger finally reached its peak after seeing this post on the forum.
Did you think this peak was over? No, after Xu Xiaobei realized that she had said the wrong thing, because she felt guilty, she accidentally shook her hand when closing the post...
Instead of closing the post, I pressed the refresh button.
Refreshed the post.
Even if Xu Xiaobei didn't want to see it anymore, she had to see the dense laughter under her message.
Xu Xiaobei panicked and her heart began to beat like a drum. She frantically operated and was about to delete her message when she suddenly received a message from the guild [Wuyou Pavilion].
You have been kicked out of the guild.
Looking at the familiar words and the familiar pop-up window, at this moment, Xu Xiaobei felt so aggrieved that he burst into tears.
A few minutes later, in a place unknown to Xia Mo, a female pastor with the ID "Xiao Beibei" officially cancelled her account after being recognized by the system.
Once a Protoss account is cancelled, people are not allowed to register again.
In other words, Xu Xiaobei's retreat completely cut off her easiest way to improve her mental strength by relying on games in the future.
