After leaving the dungeon, Xia Yao finally returned to Eagle Beach.
The system once again announced the opening of a new map. Xia Yao packed up her backpack and prepared to go to the new map to kill monsters and level up.
Sudden.
A sharp arrow shot up from behind!
Xia Yao's eyes flickered slightly, and she turned her head to avoid the disaster.
Then a flame flew out stealthily from the woods between the Caterpillar Forest and Eagle Beach, aiming directly at her.
She stepped sideways and spun around, easily dodging the attack again.
"Damn, she reacts so quickly."
Neither of Lao Xu's two skills could hurt her at all. The Black Mountain Old Demon opened his pupils and felt that it was a bit outrageous.
This is a holographic world. Reaction depends not only on the character's agility but also on the player's physical fitness.
Without practicing for ten days or half a month, it would be impossible for her to dodge the attacks twice in a row as easily as she did just now.
"Old Xu, she's probably a martial artist." The Black Mountain Demon lowered his voice and reminded secretly.
"Yeah, that's fine." Even though his mage skill [Dragon Flame] failed, Old Xu didn't show any panic on his face. "If she didn't have some strength, she wouldn't be at the top of the level list, let alone be able to successfully kill the hidden boss alone."
There is some degree of strength.
But in front of Edmund, it was nothing but fancy moves.
After saying that, he appeared from the darkness, spinning the staff in his hand. After swinging it three times, three balls of flame that were even more intense than before rushed straight towards Xia Yao!
Since single-target skills can't hit her, why not just use group attack skills?
Xia Yao sneered in her heart.
He is truly a wealthy player who has no shortage of money.
His figure floated by like a breeze, his steps landing swiftly and methodically, after a few Z-shaped moves.
Suddenly, the Black Mountain Old Demon screamed, "Old Xu is coming!"
However, just as he finished speaking, a fierce black wind came towards him!
The Black Mountain Old Demon had no time to dodge, and a small half of his right body was cut off immediately.
-398!
What the hell!
Such high damage!
Enduring the pain, the Black Mountain Demon rolled over to the grass nearby to dodge, but the surprise in his eyes did not diminish at all.
Her level is 6, I am level 4, and Lao Xu is also level 4, only 2 levels apart. How did she break his defense in such an instant?
There was no time for him to think about it. He endured the pain and got up from the ground, aimed at the target, drew his bow and shot an arrow.
The female poet in front of him flashed again. Although her speed was not as fast as the assassin, it was still surprisingly fast in the eyes of the Black Mountain Demon.
A chill suddenly rolled up his neck.
The Black Mountain Demon froze in place, secretly saying that something was wrong.
At the same time, an indifferent and cold aura appeared behind him.
"I thought you guys made a mistake the first time and didn't take it seriously."
The poetess had teleported behind him at some point, and the cold weapon was against his throat. It was clearly not a knife, but it was more chilling than a knife.
"But I'm afraid it won't be the case the second time, right?"
Xia Yao stood behind the Black Mountain Old Demon and smiled coldly.
The fan blade swept across with a whoosh sound!
[Attack the vital point, causing 50% additional damage]
Scarlet blood spilled onto the ground.
The Earth Hunter, whose blood was not thick, went limp and fell directly into a pool of blood without even being able to shout for help.
"Haha, your physical skills are really good."
The spilled blood was immediately automatically blurred by the system, and when the flesh was uncovered, only flesh-red blocks were visible, without any details.
Old Xu looked at her, raised his staff, and smiled. "It's a pity that a beautiful rabbit without a brain will become someone else's meat sooner or later."
Maybe she didn't even notice it herself, Old Xu laughed secretly. There were two crossed, slightly reddish knife icons next to her ID.
This is the sin symbol of the party that attacks first in a wild PK. The darker the color, the more people are killed and the higher the sin value. If a passing player sees it, he can attack directly without being punished by the system, and he can also pick up the items dropped by the killed players.
The staff was waved again, and the fiery red skills flew out gorgeously.
Xia Yao curled the corners of her mouth slightly, ducked to the side, took a step forward to seize the initiative, and aimed the fan blade at the side of the male mage's neck.
Just as he was about to use the wind blade, the person in front of him suddenly disappeared the next moment!
Then a scarlet murderous intent suddenly flashed behind her.
She quickly stopped, supported herself on the ground with one hand, and with her arm as the center and her body as the axis, she quickly turned on the ground like a circle, avoiding the fire attack while reversing direction and rushing behind the male wizard.
Slitting the throat can trigger a critical attack.
She raised the Soul-Devouring Fan in one smooth motion.
However, the other party disappeared from his sight again!
Mages don't have stealth or blink skills, only assassins can use them. Could he be the person mentioned on the world channel before?
The current situation did not allow her to think any further, as a beam of fire suddenly came from the front!
Xia Yao rolled quickly to the side and barely avoided the attack.
"Go on, weren't you so crazy just now? You still want to cut my throat, right? Come on, get close to me if you can."
Three huge balls of flame flew towards them.
Xia Yao half-knelt on the ground and saw two giant trees behind her with her peripheral vision. She could only avoid the attack by passing through the gap between them.
Rumble!
The flames hit Xia Yao, causing three loud noises in succession.
The sound effect of the high temperature melting the equipment was extremely realistic. Amid the raging fire, Old Xu vaguely saw her figure struggling in the cracks.
Haha, a mere casual player dares to compete with these professional players? You have to know that their training in a month is equivalent to one to two years of training for ordinary players. It goes without saying that the operation and positioning are already ingrained in their bones, and flexibly utilizing the external environment to win is also a part of their daily training.
That's the gap just now.
He had deliberately used a trick to force her into this position. The giant tree was extremely thick and she could not escape from either side in a short time. The only way for her to escape was through the gap.
However, that gap is problematic.
Not long after they entered the game, they received a message from the coach saying that there was a bug in the gap and people couldn't get out once they got in, so he specifically told their team not to get stuck in it.
Who could have known that this bug would actually help him trap the poetess.
The firelight gradually faded away, and the shadow in the crack seemed to be motionless.
Old Xu grinned smugly, put away his staff, turned on the video, and prepared to record the process of himself ending her life one cut at a time with his novice knife.
He squinted his eyes and walked closer to take a look, and suddenly!
There suddenly appeared a black fan emitting a chilling air around his neck!
"you……!"
His pupils suddenly opened.
How is this possible?! I just saw her stuck in the gap, unable to move, how could she suddenly...
He quickly switched the knife he was holding into a staff, and was about to activate his special skill [Dragon Spirit Step] when he was suddenly interrupted.
"Dragon Spirit Step, right? It's the Dragon Teng Mage's escape skill. It consumes 350 magic points and instantly moves to a designated location 5 blocks away. There's no freeze time."
The cold voice made people shudder, and then a faint and cool laugh came out.
"Unfortunately, this skill has a 0.5 second casting time."
Once she interrupts it, you will have to wait a full 24 hours to use it again.
Mages who use [Dragon Spirit Steps] receive special protection from the dragon clan, but improper use will also anger the dragon clan and result in time penalties.
The previous discussion on the world channel about "a certain mage actually obtained a skill that defied the heavens" turned out to be referring to him.
With a slight force on his hand, the fan gently moved to the side.
Bright red numbers popped out.
Trigger the critical attack again.
The male mage whose ID read "Hunter" opened his eyes wide and fell limply to the ground.
Xia Yao's face was cold. She retracted the Soul-Devouring Fan and walked towards the gap between the big trees.
When I retrieved the armor from the crack, it had been burned beyond recognition.
Fortunately, she picked up a spare piece of armor after defeating the boss, otherwise her escape today might not have been successful - she took off all her equipment the moment she rushed to the gap, got into the gap with her bare body, and used the spare armor to get stuck to fool people.
The width of the gap is very narrow, only about 40 centimeters. If you go in with equipment, you will get stuck. Only white-board players can pass through.
Don’t ask her why she knows it so clearly, because she was the one who discovered the bug. No, it should be said that this is not a bug at all, but something the official did on purpose.
However, not many people can discover this gap. The male mage she killed actually knew it. Considering his series of operations and skills, Xia Yao guessed that the male mage was either a rich man or had an organization backing him up.
But none of this has anything to do with her. She will show no mercy to anyone who stands in her way, no matter who it is.
"Old Xu, why are you also..."
At the resurrection point of the Novice Village, the Black Mountain Old Demon half-opened his mouth in astonishment.
His counterattack by the poetess was purely accidental. He'd previously played a nanny, and this was his first time playing the Hunter class, so it was understandable that he was a little rusty on the controls. But Old Xu... he'd been specializing in Mage since joining the team. Losing to the top-ranked guy? It was really...
He didn't dare say the rest of the words.
Because Old Xu had a gloomy face, he looked particularly scary.
"She's not an ordinary solo player. She must have some background."
The cold feeling of his throat being cut by a knife still lingered. Old Xu touched his intact neck, and the feeling seemed familiar.
"There are only a few top professional players in the country. Who do you think it is, Old Xu?" The Black Mountain Demon also felt that the other party's operation was indeed amazing, but he had not thought of the female poet as a professional player just now. It was not until he heard what Old Xu said that he realized the possibility that the other party was a professional player.
Old Xu's eyes were gloomy, his lips were tight. "A top player, a female professional gamer, who else do you think there is?"
