Hu Die Lan

Chapter 233 A Match Made in Heaven

Because of a series of coincidences, Gu Fei's tall and mighty image in the students' minds had already been somewhat distorted. However, he didn't take it to heart, pointing at the Fire Tree Thousandfold Flames that hadn't missed any monsters and saying to A'Fa, "See that?"

A'Fa nodded.

Gu Fei also nodded, waving his hand at the students, "Go fight the monsters!"

The battle to eliminate the bandits unfolded vigorously. Gu Fei wasn't idle either. He was still very confident in his spell attacks after losing his sword, and he firmly believed that he wouldn't be able to instantly kill any small monsters. So he occasionally used a few spells to help out.

It would have been better if he hadn't helped, as it made everyone's hearts grow colder.

Some students who already had some understanding of the game, seeing how the monsters that Gu Fei had attacked were still standing strong as if nothing had happened, knew that Gu Fei's spell damage was probably not very good. This was especially true for A'Fa, who had the most knowledge about the game and was a mage himself. Looking at Gu Fei's level, he felt that the damage was probably even lower than his own!

And that wasn't all. After Gu Fei cast a few spells, he immediately retreated to the side, took out fruit from his pocket and started munching on it. His movements were so simple, concise, and fluid, it was clear that he was a seasoned pro. For a mage to use up mana so quickly, it naturally meant that he had little mana. And having little mana could only mean one thing: he hadn't added points to Intelligence. A mage who didn't add points to Intelligence was trash...there was no debate about it. Currently, no matter where a mage added points, it was absolutely impossible not to add any Intelligence.

While fighting the monsters, A'Fa ran to Gu Fei's side, who was eating an apple, and timidly asked, "Teacher, how did you add your points?"

"All Agility," Gu Fei replied.

A'Fa almost spat out blood. The word "trash" was already in his mouth, but he didn't dare to say it. After a long while, he asked blankly, "Why?"

"Why what?"

"Why add Agility?"

"Adding Agility makes you faster!" Gu Fei replied.

"Speed..." A'Fa muttered to himself. He couldn't think of any reason why a mage would value speed so much that they wouldn't even want Intelligence.

Just as he was about to ask more questions, Gu Fei suddenly shouted, "Watch out behind you!" and threw half an apple in his hand.

It turned out that a student over there couldn't find a target to attack in the midst of the chaos and was dazed. He didn't even know that a bandit was approaching him from behind. Gu Fei's half apple hit him right on the head, and at the same time, he heard Gu Fei's warning, "Watch out behind you!" He turned around with the weapon in his hand, just in time to block the bandit's slash.

The other students nearby quickly came to help, and they quickly took down the bandit. Gu Fei was quite satisfied with the students' unity and mutual assistance, and nodded with relief. He urged A'Fa beside him, "Go fight the monsters! You're the strongest among them, what are you doing standing here like an idiot?"

A'Fa had no choice but to swallow his questions and return to the battlefield.

Under everyone's united, friendly, and mutually helpful efforts, the bandit suppression operation went very smoothly. The students fought while counting the number of completions in the quest log.

"Two more!"

"One more!"

A'Fa took a deep breath. The bandit leader hadn't shown up yet. Maybe the second part of the quest would only be activated after killing a hundred enemies? Thinking that he would have to rely on Gu Fei, A'Fa couldn't help but feel a little uneasy. He glanced back at Gu Fei and began to chant a spell.

"One hundred!" The students cheered.

Gu Fei, who hadn't done much in the process, became vigilant at this moment. He had the same thought as A'Fa, believing that the bandit leader would probably appear at this time.

Sure enough, it was as expected. After the hundredth thief fell, he didn't remain motionless like the other small monsters. Instead, he reached into his chest, took out something, and threw it into the sky.

With a sharp sound that soared into the clouds, the bandit breathed his last and stiffened into a corpse. All the students looked at the direction where the signal flare disappeared, feeling uneasy. But no matter what, the bandit leader wouldn't just fall from the sky. Gu Fei was now fully alert, paying attention to the place leading to the depths of the valley.

Before long, rumbling footsteps came from the valley. The students trembled when they heard the sound. It didn't sound like the movement of just one person!

"Quick! Melee professions to the front, Priests to the rear, Archers and Mages to both sides!" A'Fa hurriedly began to command the formation to meet the enemy. Unexpectedly, Gu Fei walked to the front of the formation in a carefree manner and waved his hand at the students, "Everyone, step aside."

"Ah?" The students looked at each other in confusion. Gu Fei had already turned his back to them, one hand in his pocket, facing the rumbling footsteps alone.

"Teacher!" A'Fa quickly came up to him, "It sounds like there are a lot of enemies!"

"Yeah, so you guys should step aside first!" Gu Fei said.

The previous bandits didn't appear all at once in a hundred to fight the students. In fact, the total number present each time didn't exceed ten. The students of Class Three were repeatedly farming until they finally accumulated a hundred kills. But listening to the momentum in the valley at this moment, it really sounded like hundreds of bandits were rushing out at the same time. If it was really that many, Class Three would have no chance of winning. A'Fa was just hoping that there wouldn't be that many enemies.

The sound grew closer and clearer. It didn't sound like it was being amplified by the constant echoes of the valley. This was real, step by step, the sound of footsteps.

The figures from the depths of the valley became clearer and clearer. A'Fa's face was already ashen. He reached out and shouted to the students, "Retreat, retreat quickly, hurry!!"

Normally, A'Fa was just a captain who was ordered around, but he was still the best gamer among them. No one would question his judgment, and everyone immediately retreated towards the exit of the valley. After running a few steps, everyone remembered something and looked back. Gu Fei was standing in the same spot, his posture unchanged.

"Teacher!" The students shouted.

Gu Fei had already focused all his attention on the rushing bandit horde. One had to know that in ordinary player leveling areas, it was absolutely impossible to have such dense groups of monsters to farm. Even if one deliberately lured monsters, such a large number would be severely excessive, and no one would lure so many. Gu Fei had already sensed that he would need to kill a lot next, and he was very excited. He heard A'Fa shouting to retreat, but he didn't take it to heart at all.

At this time, the students shouted "Teacher" together. Gu Fei looked back and saw that everyone was twenty or thirty meters away from him. He nodded and said, "Yeah, farther away is good, safer."

"No way?" The students looked at each other. They had already seen that Gu Fei had no intention of retreating and seemed determined to fight this large group of bandits to the death.

Just then, Gu Fei drew the Dark Night Flowing Light Sword. A'Fa's eyes lit up. He could tell that this weapon shrouded in light was definitely a top-quality item. And the teacher hadn't been using a weapon before... After thinking for a moment, A'Fa guessed that he was probably afraid that the damage was too high and he would kill the small monsters directly.

"Could it be that the teacher actually has high spell damage that can instantly kill the bandits here?" A'Fa made the correct inference, and his mouth almost couldn't close.

The other students were now a little unsure of what to do and were waiting for A'Fa, who had the most game experience, to make a decision.

"Wait, let's see what happens first," A'Fa thought, wanting to see if Gu Fei's confidence was true, and whether he really had the ability to instantly kill the bandits as he thought. If he really had this power, eliminating this large force of reinforcements wouldn't be just a dream!

He saw Gu Fei holding the Dark Night Flowing Light Sword upside down, not waiting for the bandits to rush in front of him, but actively meeting them. Under A'Fa's tense anticipation, he didn't use any area-of-effect spells, but just rushed faster and faster, actually charging straight into the bandit horde.

"Teacher...is he trying to commit suicide?" The students were at a loss.

The sounds of killing shook the heavens!

The bandits were fierce, and more importantly, they were simulated by the system and wouldn't have any fatigue in their throats. Once the battle started, they weren't satisfied with just fighting with their hands, and they were all howling and wailing. The game developers proudly called this "sound effects."

Gu Fei, who rushed forward, started with a Twin Flame Flash, instantly killing four bandits. However, his main purpose was to use this spell to attract the bandits' aggro, so that they wouldn't ignore him and rush towards the students.

This strategy was extremely successful. The aggro range of a mage's spell was already large, and with Gu Fei waving it in front, a group of bandits surrounded him. Gu Fei didn't panic at all. He had already practiced against the bandits in Cloudrise Valley and was familiar with their attack routines, and the system's routines were always the same. This kind of attack routine that Gu Fei had already mastered could only hurt Gu Fei if he lost his focus or made a mistake.

But Gu Fei didn't plan to entangle with these robots for too long. He pointed his sword at his feet and said, "Fire Tree Thousandfold Flames, rise!"

It would still take a while to activate, and the good thing about the stupid system monsters was that they wouldn't dodge even after hearing Gu Fei chant the spell, and would still stubbornly pounce on Gu Fei.

With Gu Fei as the center, the bandits were closely united, with no space left in their formation. Gu Fei held the sword in his right hand and drew his knife in his left hand, blocking attacks from all sides while calculating the time.

"Almost there!" Gu Fei thought, casually pointing his hand outwards, "Instantaneous Movement, activate!"

In the eyes of the students, Gu Fei had long been deeply surrounded by the bandits, airtight. A'Fa was feeling hopeless and was about to tell everyone to get ready to run. Suddenly, his eyes blurred, and Gu Fei's figure flashed outside the bandit horde. At the same time, the Fire Tree Thousandfold Flames released from the center of the bandit horde was rapidly burning.

The rule-abiding system bandits were just standing in a dense circle in Gu Fei's previous position, and they were a perfect match for the burning Fire Tree Thousandfold Flames.

The sound effects were still there, but the bandits had all fallen. Gu Fei put away his weapons and walked towards the students while clapping his hands, "Alright, that's it for today, get ready for class to end!"
