Chapter 557 Gathering and Bombing

When Baozi finally understood what was happening and hurried back to his computer to control Baozi Invasion to rush to the entrance of the Dark Shrine, Tang Rou had already sent her Soft Mist ahead. Ye Xiu's Lord Grim went to investigate the situation.

Although Zhan Loulan was dead, he was quickly resurrected by the priests present and was now on the scene. He was directing the players to begin the pursuit: "This guy is powerful, search in teams, don't get separated."

As a result, Ye Xiu, directing Lord Grim over, heard this and immediately said, "Spread out and search, spread out and search."

"This guy is powerful!" Zhan Loulan emphasized.

"Luring him out when he's alone is a good thing. If we can't find him for too long, he'll disengage and go offline, then it'll be difficult to get him back," Ye Xiu said.

When Zhan Loulan heard this, he immediately realized and quickly changed his orders, sighing that the old ginger was still spicier.

"Isn't that your friend? What's going on?" Zhan Loulan was actually far less calm than he appeared. As soon as the Boss dropped loot, he rushed up to pick it up, and was counting what was in his bag, when someone treated him like a Boss and blew him up. The items in the backpack could also be dropped, so people usually didn't carry important items with them. Zhan Loulan was carrying the items just dropped from the Dark Night Radiance Boss, a veritable mobile treasure trove. As a result, the backpack dropped more items than the equipment on his body, three items compared to one.

Zhan Loulan's equipment was gorgeous, but the items in his backpack were even rarer. They were dropped by a Level 70 wild Boss, usually monopolized by the big club guilds. These drops, especially the materials, couldn't be bought with money and were far more valuable than his equipment. Now they had been stolen, and three of them. One could imagine how depressed Zhan Loulan was.

"Just acquaintances. Don't panic, he hasn't run far. If we can't get the items back, it's on me," Ye Xiu replied.

Zhan Loulan couldn't help but feel suspicious. Deception's reputation was well-known, and Zhan Loulan had seen him fighting alongside Lord Grim last time. When he was exploded, he immediately thought, "Could Lord Grim have instigated it?" But he quickly realized that such instigation made no sense. They were supposed to split the loot in half. This explosion's output was less than splitting it evenly, so what was the point of turning against him?

Zhan Loulan didn't delve too deeply into this thought, but the idea had still emerged, only to be deliberately buried. Hearing Ye Xiu say this, the doubt in his heart was completely dispelled, and he even felt a little embarrassed: "No, that's not what I meant. I was saying, isn't that person your friend? Is there some kind of misunderstanding?"

"No misunderstanding, that's what he does," Ye Xiu said.

"Oh, him..." Zhan Loulan was about to explain how Deception had killed him, but Ye Xiu quickly interrupted: "You should hurry up and tell me where he ran. That's more important than 'How did you die?' Over here?"

Lord Grim raised his Myriad Manifestations Umbrella and pointed in a direction with the highest concentration of players.

"Yes..." Zhan Loulan said.

"Map attacks first!" Ye Xiu said as he controlled Lord Grim over, "Team units stay together, those without damage immunity don't huddle together."

"Keep the people close together, cover more ground with the attacks, bomb them, bomb them!" Ye Xiu shouted, not even bothering to talk to Zhan Loulan.

Zhan Loulan thought, "That's right!" There was no time to talk. If that guy disengaged and went offline, would everyone just keep squatting here? It didn't take long to disengage, three minutes, that was the system rule. That meant that within three minutes of Deception's escape, if they couldn't refresh his combat state with an attack, he could calmly go offline and completely escape the pursuit.

The Great God's current arrangement wasn't aimed at killing, or even finding the opponent, but solely at stalling him so he couldn't go offline directly.

"Everyone, open your eyes wide! Pay attention to that guy, class is Ninja, name is Deception. Professional scavenger, his characteristic is being despicable, very despicable!" The voice echoed again. Zhan Loulan, as the guild leader, simply kept quiet, letting Ye Xiu command.

The players of Yi Zhan World responded loudly, extremely annoyed by the sudden appearance of someone who had killed Zhan Loulan. This was completely plundering their victory! The two club guilds hadn't been able to take any benefits from them, but in the end, they had capsized in the gutter, losing to a scavenger. This was unbearable.

The Dark Shrine, which had ended the battle, immediately became lively again. Players of all classes used their skills with the largest coverage area. No one knew if Deception had been hit, but countless monsters were startled.

The Dark Shrine was also a leveling area, and a leveling area had to have monsters. However, leveling area monsters were not a major obstacle for such an elite team. No one shifted their attack focus to them, simply dealing with them while rotating their vision up, down, left, and right, searching for Deception's location.

"Here!"

A cry of surprise came from a certain direction. While everyone was still searching for the source of the sound, Lord Grim, who was walking with Zhan Loulan, had already sprinted over.

"Is it over there?" Zhan Loulan hurriedly followed, unsure. He realized that the gap between him and the professional level was still vast.

Ye Xiu controlled Lord Grim straight over. In his field of vision, a cloud of purple smoke bloomed over a large area, instantly swallowing several people.

Ninja Tool? Smoke Bomb.

Similar items were available to Gunners, but they were called Smoke Grenades.

Compared to Smoke Grenades, Smoke Bombs exploded faster. The smoke wasn't released gradually, but filled the entire field instantly. At this time, releasing this skill was naturally to cover his escape. Ye Xiu was no longer trying to find Deception's figure in the smoke, but instead observed which direction he would jump out from.

Sure enough, Deception's figure quickly蹿 out of the purple smoke. Of course, Ye Xiu wasn't the only one who saw him. Many players immediately wanted to chase after him. Ye Xiu watched Deception running while throwing things backwards, and quickly shouted, "Watch out for the spikes!"

"Spikes" was just a player's term. The standard name was "Ninja Tool: Caltrops". When thrown on the ground, the target wouldn't be seriously injured if they stepped on them, but their movement speed would be affected.

Deception's action of throwing the caltrops was very sneaky. Ye Xiu estimated that many people wouldn't notice it. As expected, several of the people who chased after him suddenly had their movement speed slowed down, obviously having accidentally stepped on them. Deception threw another handful of shurikens, blocking them for a moment before leaping up lightly, rushing towards a stone pillar on the side to climb up.

Gunfire erupted.

The players who were close were blocked, but there were still ranged attackers. Gunner players fired at him. But Deception's control was truly remarkable. Ninjas were skilled at climbing, and he played it with perfection. No one's attack could stop him. Ye Xiu saw his character's agile movements and knew that this guy probably wasn't wearing a set of trash equipment to scavenge this time. Such speed had to be improved with good equipment.

In a flash, Deception climbed up a lot, turned back and jumped, directly stepping on a horizontal beam that was half a sky high, sprinting straight forward.

The horizontal beam was very narrow, with no room for left or right movement. Running up here got rid of all the melee classes, but completely exposed himself to the vision of all the ranged classes.

In the gunfire, Deception sprinted straight ahead, actually relying on the swaying of his body to the left and right on the narrow horizontal beam to dodge attacks. His controls were indeed precise.

"Not bad!" Ye Xiu praised, his Lord Grim finally entered the attack range. He swung the Myriad Manifestations Umbrella and fired an Anti-Tank Missile directly.

Boom!

The shell accurately landed on the horizontal beam, and the air waves rolled. Deception, however, jumped lightly, flipping over the blast of air, avoiding Ye Xiu's precisely calculated lead attack.

Amidst the disappointed sighs of the players, Deception himself was also startled into a cold sweat. If his reaction hadn't been fast enough, he would have been hit by this cannon head-on.

Deception, who had not paid attention to who was attacking, couldn't help but glance over, and immediately saw a striking name.

How could this guy be here!

Deception was surprised, and then saw the guild name above Lord Grim's head, the same as these guys, Yi Zhan World.

Was he recruited?

Deception was thinking this when Lord Grim fired another shot.

Deception was starting to struggle. If it was just a one-on-one, he would be more confident in dodging, but the problem was that he was already running in a hail of bullets, and suddenly this high-level guy intervened, making things difficult. That somersault was brilliant, but it delayed a step of movement. How many ordinary players would consider this?

He couldn't keep going like this!

Deception made up his mind, looking at another stone pillar over there, and suddenly jumped over.

It looked like there was still a bit of distance, but Deception threw out his ninja blade in mid-air, inserting it directly into the stone pillar. He held the rope end in his hand, then pulled, and his character flew over, immediately swinging halfway around the pillar, using the back of the stone pillar as cover.

"Surround him!" Zhan Loulan shouted, and the players of Yi Zhan World rushed over from all directions.

Deception flashed behind the stone pillar and immediately used a stealth technique. He was observing the terrain, thinking about which direction to rush next, when a string of bullets flew past his side.

碎石乱飞, the barrel of Lord Grim's gun was aimed at him from below the stone pillar: "Still hiding?"

Deception was frustrated. How could this guy be here so fast?
