Chapter 172
Not only did they remove their equipment, but their weapons could only be the lowest-level bronze equipment. This kind of PK method was simply unheard of.
Many players began to gather under the ring, looking up to see what was happening.
"Aren't you curious why I asked for this?"
While unloading his equipment, H*honor turned his head to look at the person next to him.
Xia Mo raised his eyebrows slightly: "Want to save face for your friend who failed in the Crimson Wasteland?"
A psychic mage named Olena appeared in the Crimson Wasteland. Hunter's men snatched the monster from Wenren Fei, and she snatched the monster from Hunter. I guess those five people are still depressed, otherwise their vice-president H*honor would not have come to PK specifically.
H*Honor should have heard about the process of snatching monsters from his teammates. Xia Mo guessed that H*Honor was very concerned about the two points of repeatedly becoming invisible and avoiding the light balls.
These effects are brought about by the special attributes of the equipment. He asked her to remove the equipment, and the deeper meaning was actually "Without the support of equipment, let's see how you fight today."
Seeing that she was so direct, H* Rongyu didn't beat around the bush: "Yes, I want to know how far you can go in a PK with me."
"Then let's go."
Xia Mo didn't want to say much, so he replaced his weapon, the Star Staff, with a lowest-grade bronze staff. He walked onto the stage, and the feeling of inferior quality hit him in the palm of his hand.
H*honor also completed the weapon switch. He is a warrior and his weapon is a big sword.
With a sound of Duang, gongs and drums started beating.
H* Rong Yu raised his greatsword and rushed towards her first. Xia Mo jumped to his right side, went around his right hand holding the sword, and raised his inferior bronze staff. Whoosh~
H* Rongyu was startled, and he took a step and turned around, but the skill just brushed past his shoulder.
Neither of them has any agility bonus now, and they only have the attributes added after the character upgrades. H*honor has been calculated. She is now level 40. The 5 points obtained from each upgrade must be mostly used in [Magic] and [Intelligence]. Therefore, her agility and defense must be at a disadvantage.
This is also a shortcoming that the magic profession cannot escape. Therefore, magic players will stack equipment like crazy and try to stack the defense to an average level. As for agility, they generally don’t care much about it. After all, for long-range output, why do you need such fast steps?
Knowing this, H*Honor dared to conclude that without the equipment bonus, she was now just a walking biscuit, very fragile.
And he? At this time, he had a better foundation.
A warrior's health and defense are naturally higher than those of other professions. Even without equipment, they are still much higher than others, so it is not easy for her to wear down his health.
H*Honor turned around and stood still, raising his greatsword and slashing down diagonally.
His attack speed was not fast, but he had the advantage of a fast start. H*honor thought that this move should be able to hit her, but just as the greatsword was swung out, she ducked and dodged as if she had predicted the move.
Oh no, a hole has formed below me.
He raised his foot and tried to dodge to the side, but the person in front of him attacked with faster hand speed.
A bright red number popped up, and he lost a full third of his blood due to the Star Officer's skill.
There are still two chances, no rush.
He swung his weapon, becoming bloodthirsty and violent, and his attack spread out like an iron fan, sweeping up a whistling gale across the ring.
Xia Mo jumped out of the attack range with a bounce of his feet, while throwing out the skills in his hand.
With a snap, H* Rongyu's legs were suddenly frozen.
Oh no, it's frozen!
His expression changed slightly for a moment, and he quickly raised his hand to block.
Xia Mo wanted to break through the warrior's block, but it was a bit difficult because within 3 seconds, the two skills she threw out were blocked back.
As soon as the block ended, H*YuYi found an opportunity to launch a sneak attack. He charged and rushed straight towards Xia Mo.
Charging has the effect of accelerating, and there is a certain chance of causing physical damage and stunning the enemy at the same time. H*honor thought that he could trick her this time no matter what, but who knew.
She should have been hit, but she dodged it again!
The charge failed, the attack and stun both missed the target, and what was worse was that his back was exposed without any defense!
H*Renyu thought to himself that something was wrong and turned around to defend himself, but he was a whole beat too slow to react. Before he could raise his sword, two skills had already rushed to his face.
Boom, boom!
The last two chances were exhausted and he fell limply on the ring.
The players below the stage couldn't help but exclaim, making a sound like a tide.
H*Honor lay on the ground and frowned.
It could be said that it was a coincidence that the opponent dodged his attack once, but it was obviously abnormal that he dodged it two or three times.
Her agility is lower than mine. If we both react at the same time, the slower one can only be her, not me. So why...
In a flash, H*honor suddenly remembered an old post he had seen on the forum a long time ago. It said that when the server was first opened, there was a novice village called Buluo Town, where a player with extremely strong operation and prediction abilities emerged. While others were still figuring out how to release their skills, she could already defeat the enemy in a 1V5 battle.
The most important thing is that the player is not an assassin or hunter, but a short-legged and fragile star officer.
Frankly speaking, when H* Ronghui first read this post, he thought the poster was exaggerating. However, as he read on and read between the lines of other people's comments, he realized that there actually was such a master among the Xingguan players.
Could that expert be her?
H*Honor was lost in thought, then he resurrected and got up on the spot.
"Come again." He said somewhat unconvinced.
Xia Mo: "Open."
The second game ended in his failure again.
If I have to say there is any improvement, it is that the second game took a little longer than the first by half a minute.
According to the best-of-three format, he was already the loser, but he still had a chance. H*Honor gritted his teeth and started the third game.
Not surprisingly, we lost the third game as well.
H*Honor got up from the ground and smiled helplessly: "I still can't beat you."
It is not about boosting others' morale and destroying your own prestige, but about acknowledging it from the bottom of your heart.
He thought that as the number one warrior, he would definitely win 1-2 games, but in front of her, he didn't have any power to fight back.
No wonder those five members had their monsters snatched away by her. Their strength was not on the same level at all. Even if five more came, they would not be able to win.
I lost with all my heart.
H*Honor sighed deeply, then walked up to her and extended his hand frankly: "Let's be friends."
Xia Mo raised his eyebrows: "I thought it was already the case last time in the Tower of Babel."
Hearing the slight sarcasm in her tone, H*Honor smiled frankly: "This time it's absolutely true."
Then he sent a friend request.
Xia Mo didn't respond, but approved his application and turned to leave the ring.
To be fair, H*honor's operation was not bad and his reaction was also very fast. He mainly lost because he was not familiar with the opponent's starting movements of releasing skills.
Different skills of different professions have different starting actions. If you think carefully, you can judge what skill your opponent will release next by the subtle differences in hand posture.
This is very crucial.
Reacting 0.1 seconds earlier than the enemy can often give you an advantage.
After finishing the PK, Xia Mo called a few people in the guild and prepared to form a team to go to the new dungeon.
This new dungeon was not difficult, and the reward for getting the first kill was also average, so Xia Mo did not rush the progress.
The group came out slowly, and unexpectedly they got third place?
"Uh... why is the equipment so crappy this time?" Ripe Tomato said with some disgust as he flipped over and over the spoils.
He Ye Xiaoxiao took a look and nodded in approval: "It's quite average, but that's understandable. The difficulty of this dungeon is relatively low, and it's quite easy for us to complete it. The reward can't be too high."
He laughed until his face collapsed: "Not bad, at least there are more than 20,000 experience points reward, which is better than killing monsters."
Everyone nodded happily, and Xia Mo followed the team out of the dungeon.
*
The next morning, Xia Mo skipped class again, but this time she skipped class a little differently. She didn't skip class to play the game, but to investigate something else.
Li Zewei refused to reveal more information to her, so she went to look for it herself.
Her parents cannot die in vain, she must know the truth of what happened back then.
Excluding Li Zewei for the time being, Xia Mo also thought of one person - her sponsor.
She went to the funding center to print out the information, looked at the sponsor's information on it, and called the other party.
"Hello?"
A soft female voice was heard. Xia Mo was stunned for a moment, feeling that he seemed to have heard this voice somewhere before.
But she couldn't remember it for a moment, so she had to continue: "Hello Aunt Zhou, I am Xia Mo, the student you once sponsored. Do you still remember me?"
The other end was surprised for a moment, and then the tone became subtle: "Of course I remember, what can I do for you?"
Xia Mo: "I want to meet with you, is that okay?"
Half an hour later, Xia Mo waited for her sponsor in a coffee shop.
The moment she saw the other person's face, she was not surprised, but just felt that there were too many coincidences in this world.
Yes, after hanging up the phone, she finally remembered who this familiar voice came from - Xiaoyu's mother, Zhou Qian.
Before she met Xiaoyu, she had no connection with Xiaoyu's family. However, Zhou Qian silently funded her entire study career. If there was no reason behind this, it would be unconscionable.
And she plans to dig out this reason today.
Zhou Qian pulled out a chair and sat down opposite her with a smile: "Xiao Mo, are you having any difficulties with your studies?"
It is appropriate to start with the topic of learning.
Xia Mo shook his head obediently: "No, Xiaoyu and I are doing well."
She deliberately brought Xiaoyu along just to get the answer she wanted.
Zhou Qian, who hadn't yet realized her true intention, nodded and said, "That's good. If you encounter any difficult problems, you can tell Aunt Zhou. Aunt Zhou will definitely find a way to help you solve it."
Xia Mo: "Auntie Zhou, you are so kind. Xiaoyu must be very happy to have a mother like you~"
After a pause, she continued, "But Aunt Zhou, there's one thing I don't understand. I only met your daughter Xiaoyu when I was in my third year of high school. How come you knew me when I was very young?"
Zhou Qian was caught off guard and froze. She stammered a few times, trying to come up with an excuse when she heard the person in front of her say, "Auntie Zhou, do you know my biological parents?"
Zhou Qian's body swayed as she sat on the chair.
"Why do you think so?" She forced a smile, which was very unnatural.
Xia Mo pretended not to notice her awkwardness and sighed, "So Aunt Zhou doesn't know my parents... I thought I could get something else out of you."
...Again? Zhou Qian keenly grasped this word: "...Did you ask anyone else?"
Xia Mo nodded: "Yes."
Zhou Qian: "Who?"
Xia Mo: "Li Zewei."
Zhou Qian's breathing stagnated, and she stared at Xia Mo for a long time. Finally, she gave in: "Actually, I don't know much. Many things were told to me by my sister..."
