Upon hearing this, Yu Xiangnan narrowed his eyes slightly, then changed the subject: "Before the game's invasion, you were laid off from your company and were unemployed. Am I right?"
Huo Shi's expression changed, his face turned bright red, and his eyes seemed to spit fire.
How did you know?!
"Damn this lousy company, a bunch of blind idiots! I've worked so hard for them, and they fired me! Do they think firing me is the end of it? They'll regret this. Once I get out, I'll make them regret it!"
Huo Shi cursed through gritted teeth, his hands clenched into fists.
Yu Xiangnan only wanted to stall for time, but he didn't expect that his casual remark would actually be correct.
We're all just corporate slaves, why hurt each other?
Huo Shi was furious. He decided not to waste any more time and to deal with the glib-tongued girl in front of him immediately to vent his anger.
Before he could make a move, Yu Xiangnan raised his hand first and snapped his fingers.
"Little Green and Little Black, get them!"
Xiao Lü and Xiao Hei, who had been lying in ambush behind Huo Shi, acted instantly, like two bolts of lightning, attacking Huo Shi from the left and right.
When Huo Shi saw the two enormous mutated insects charging at him from the left and right sides almost simultaneously, his expression changed drastically.
Damn it, I got tricked!
This crappy game actually has skills that allow you to control NPCs?!
Huo Shi was forced to use his teleportation skill again, and by this time, his energy was almost depleted.
Taking advantage of his distraction, Yu Xiangnan swiftly raised the shovel.
The shovel drew an arc in the air, whistling through the wind. Huo Shi hurriedly raised his dagger to defend himself, but with a loud "clang," the dagger was smashed out of his hand by the broken shovel and flew into the distance.
It even broke in two.
He stared at Yu Xiangnan in astonishment, his eyes filled with disbelief.
"How...how is this possible..."
The shovel in Yu Xiangnan's hand was completely undamaged.
Under the dim sunlight, the small broken shovel became unusually bright, reflecting a dazzling light, as if expressing its disdain for Huo Shi in a unique way.
Now... the situation has completely reversed.
Having lost all his energy, Huo Shi was like a fish on a chopping board, utterly powerless to resist.
As for why I say that...
Every profession has its unique advantages and disadvantages. Take the Assassin class for example. On the one hand, Assassins have extremely high burst damage, which can deliver a fatal blow to players in an instant; but on the other hand, Assassins are also notoriously fragile.
By employing a strategy of attrition, one can gradually wear them down and kill them. Once the assassin runs out of energy and can no longer use skills, they are essentially useless.
Yu Xiangnan gave him no chance to catch his breath or use the Blue Card, and swung the shovel again.
Just as the shovel was about to touch him, a blinding golden light flashed, instantly neutralizing the fierce attack.
Defense card?
She wanted to see how many defensive cards he had that could save his life.
This time, the shovel slammed heavily onto Huo Shi's shoulder. He groaned in pain, staggered back a few steps, lost his balance, and fell to the ground.
"You love to lecture, don't you?" Yu Xiangnan looked down at him, her tone indifferent. "You say you've never experienced the harsh realities of society, yet you shamelessly praise yourself for being insightful. Do you only feel at peace when everyone is like you?"
Did you see a pothole on the road?
Huo Shi looked surprised upon hearing Yu Xiangnan's question.
I not only watched it, I almost fell in...
"That was used to bury you." Yu Xiangnan looked at him calmly, but an invisible chill seemed to spread quietly from where his gaze fell.
Huo Shi shuddered and stumbled backward. "How is this possible? No, how can your health points be so high? Is it because of your profession? Wait..."
"Wait, wait a minute!"
Yu Xiangnan showed no sign of stopping.
A grayish-white corpse quickly appeared on the ground.
She looked up and saw that the sky was almost completely shrouded in darkness. The night was as black as ink, like a huge black curtain pressing down heavily.
Although it took a lot of time and we started later than other players, however...
Yu Xiangnan's gaze fell on the card book at Huo Shi's waist, and he couldn't help but think: The second-ranked person on the head list must have a lot of good stuff in his card book, right?
She quickly searched through the items and discovered that Huo Shi's dagger was actually a five-star item with a "life-stealing" effect, making it a top-tier weapon among many others.
Unfortunately, the dagger is now damaged.
I wonder if a similar item repair function will be added in the future. If it can be repaired, this dagger could probably sell for a lot of Conquer Points.
Sigh... She didn't really want to be like a beggar, picking up all sorts of junk. But she really didn't expect that Huo Shi's card album would be completely empty. Besides a compressed biscuit, a bottle of mineral water, and two mana regeneration cards, there was nothing else inside.
Good grief, he turned his own game into a hard mode.
Fortunately, the large pit she had dug earlier wasn't far from here. She put Huo Shi's body into a body bag and then found the deep pit she had dug earlier.
Because she now has an extra skill called "Turn Enemies into Friends," she needs to constantly expend energy to try to recruit NPCs. Therefore, she has chosen to increase her energy limit for the recent burials.
