"What do you want to do?" Chen Guo's tone already carried a hint of disbelief. Ye Xiu's question, coupled with his continuous attacks on the Christmas thieves without engaging in combat, made her faintly realize the crazy idea he might have.

"Why don't we count them?" Ye Xiu said.

"You're crazy." Chen Guo was dumbfounded.

"Now there are two." Ye Xiu had actually started counting, while Chen Guo continued to wear a look of disbelief. Was this guy planning to concentrate all the aggro of the Christmas thieves in the City of Sin on himself? What was the point of this suicidal act?

On the screen, Lord Grim had two Christmas thieves chasing after him. These Christmas thieves had different levels, professions, and attributes. Their movement speeds were naturally different as well. The one he had just pulled was rushing over with a heavy sword, looking like a Berserker, and had a relatively normal movement speed. But the previous Assassin Christmas thief clearly had a higher movement speed attribute, making him a bit faster than Lord Grim.

However, that was under normal movement conditions. At this moment, Ye Xiu was using Flying Gun to fly backward, giving him an advantage in speed. Not only was he not closing the distance, but he was widening it. As for the Berserker, he was being left even further behind. If these were ordinary monsters, this distance would have been too far for them to maintain aggro, and they would have stopped chasing long ago. But these Christmas thieves showed no signs of giving up. This temperament was quite similar to the elite monsters in dungeons.

*Bang!*

Lord Grim fired another shot while flying backward, hitting the third Christmas thief on the street, who immediately pulled out his weapon and gave chase. Ye Xiu paid him no mind, simply commanding Lord Grim to run around.

"Three now," Ye Xiu turned to Chen Guo to report the number.

Chen Guo was completely petrified, showing no reaction, her brain seemingly stuck in a crash state. Did Ye Xiu really intend to go through with it? How many Christmas thieves would there be in this leveling area? The official had not announced the exact number. However, the number of monsters that spawned in each leveling area was fixed; this was a basic rule that had been in place since the beginning of online games. If there were 100 monsters, it was impossible to spawn a 101st. If there were only 99, the 100th would respawn after a certain period of time. This time was also fixed, of course.

Chen Guo guessed what Ye Xiu wanted to do.

And she also thought of the consequences that this would cause.

But was it really possible to do something like this? With so many different types of monsters chasing him, how could he ensure that he would survive? This pressure was too great!

"Fourth one," Chen Guo was still deep in thought! But Ye Xiu had already reported the number to four.

Because of the difference in movement speed, the four Christmas thieves chasing after Lord Grim were spread out, but the distance between them and Lord Grim's speed remained constant.

The speed of Flying Gun movement was determined by the physical attack power of the gun in the character's hand. The stronger the physical attack power, the greater the recoil, and the faster and farther the character would fly. Ye Xiu's Myriad Manifestations Umbrella, as a rifle, had the second-highest physical attack power among the gun types of the same level, second only to hand cannons. Moreover, it was a level 25 Silver weapon, equivalent to a level 30 Orange weapon or a level 35 Purple weapon, so the speed of Flying Gun was not slow at all. In addition, with his extremely skilled technique, it was almost impossible to see the character land while flying backward. The height of each jump was also consistent, at the minimum possible. It looked as if he was suspended in mid-air, moving straight back.

Chen Guo also played gunner, so if she had seen this scene, she would have been greatly amazed. But unfortunately, she was watching through Ye Xiu's screen from a first-person perspective, so she could not see this effect that only a spectator could see. From her perspective, the amplitude of Lord Grim's ups and downs was very clear, and she could only see that Ye Xiu's operating technique was extremely fast and precise.

"Fifth one," Ye Xiu continued to count. The number of Christmas thieves he had attracted had reached five.

Sixth.

Seventh.

Eighth.

The City of Sin was vast and sparsely populated, with so few players that it was almost impossible to steal monsters. Ye Xiu was only looking for them without killing them, so his speed was naturally faster. Before long, the Christmas thieves chasing him had formed a long line, and they attracted quite a bit of attention when they encountered other players.

"Gathering so many Christmas thieves at once? Lord Grim is greedy!"

"Greedy enough, but also strong enough. If he can really kill so many at once."

The onlookers were still discussing this, but no one could guess Ye Xiu's crazy idea out of thin air. They only thought he was gathering monsters for a group kill, a common technique used when leveling up. It was just that the Christmas thieves were strong and did not spawn in a concentrated area, so players usually killed them one by one.

Only Chen Guo knew exactly what was going on.

She was practically watching the train that Lord Grim was creating get longer and longer. By now, there were eighteen Christmas thieves.

Lord Grim was still safe and sound.

This was the biggest surprise for Chen Guo. Among the many Christmas thieves, there were already ranged attackers, shooting, casting spells... As long as they were within range, they would attack without hesitation. However, the attacks did not hinder Lord Grim's high-speed movement at all.

While dodging these attacks, Lord Grim continued to dash through the streets and alleys of the City of Sin. He also attracted some residents of the City of Sin along the way, but these ordinary monsters did not have the perseverance to chase for long before losing aggro and stopping their pursuit.

The team continued to grow stronger. On the way, Ye Xiu even encountered Su Mucheng's Wind Following Smoke once.

Su Mucheng did not know what was happening and thought that he had encountered trouble, so she hurriedly fired a cannon into the pile of Christmas thieves. However, the first aggro setting for the Christmas thieves could not be stolen. The thieves continued to chase Lord Grim, and Su Mucheng was about to continue attacking when Ye Xiu sent her a message.

"Don't attack, don't attack."

Su Mucheng stopped immediately: "What are you doing?"

"Gathering monsters!" Ye Xiu replied.

"Isn't this enough?"

"Not enough, I want to gather all the Christmas thieves in the city." Along with the words was a cocky smiley face with a cigarette in its mouth.

"Why?"

"Competition! A competition to kill more Christmas thieves," Ye Xiu said.

"I see, so it seems that I won't be able to gain much if I stay here?" Su Mucheng replied. She was not as shocked as Chen Guo because she did not doubt Ye Xiu's ability to do this.

"I think so too," Ye Xiu replied.

"But it's not bad to stay and watch the fun," Su Mucheng's reply also included a smiley face.

"Then you can go get a good spot in advance," Ye Xiu said.

"Where?"

"Over by the clock tower."

"Oh!" Su Mucheng understood immediately, but she did not immediately set off. Her Wind Following Smoke ran to the opposite side of Lord Grim, and soon sent a message with coordinates.

Of course, Ye Xiu knew what this was.

"Want to come play?" Ye Xiu replied.

"I'm afraid I won't be able to do it well, you should do it!" Su Mucheng replied.

When Ye Xiu drove the train to the coordinates, he saw Su Mucheng guarding a Christmas thief, but she did not attack.

The train immediately had another carriage. And Su Mucheng also began to run around to help Ye Xiu find new targets.

Thirty!

Ye Xiu did not count them one by one, but Chen Guo counted them silently.

Thirty Christmas thieves followed behind Lord Grim. The sound of the train became more and more majestic, and the footsteps alone could alarm half the street.

In the Excellent Dynasty guild, Chen Yehui finally received the news.

At first, he didn't know. He only looked at the rankings and saw that Lord Grim's ranking was continuing to decline. He thought that Sword Light had continued to do his job effectively. But he didn't know that Sword Light still hadn't found Lord Grim.

Until now, someone in the guild said that Lord Grim was driving a train.

"There are probably twenty or thirty Christmas thieves gathered," said the players who were watching.

Everyone was still thinking about gathering monsters.

Even Chen Yehui, who knew Lord Grim's true identity, had not thought of such a crazy idea.

"Are they scared by our methods? Do they want to gather more Christmas thieves at once and then kill them?" Chen Yehui was thinking about this.

"Should we go and add to the chaos?" Chen Yehui had a new idea.

The number of Christmas thieves continued to grow.

Forty.

Fifty.

The surrounding players finally felt that something was wrong.

There should be a limit to gathering monsters, right? Gathering them endlessly like this, is this gathering monsters or committing suicide?

Everyone no longer regarded this as simply gathering monsters, but they still couldn't guess what the purpose was.

Time continued to pass. Lord Grim's ranking on the list became lower and lower, and the number of Christmas thieves behind him became more and more.

Chen Guo was completely speechless, and Tang Rou had also noticed it, and remained silent with Chen Guo.

One hundred.

Two hundred.

Three hundred...

The number of Christmas thieves had begun to increase upwards in the hundreds. The train passed by, and the Christmas thieves could almost fill an entire street.

Six full hours had passed.

Ye Xiu did not leave his seat at all. He did not eat dinner, drink water, or even go to the bathroom. It was only with this crazy and amazing feat that he won Chen Guo's special approval, and she even personally lit a cigarette for him.

Chen Guo didn't dare to interrupt him. At this point, she also wanted to see what Ye Xiu could do, and how many Christmas thieves would spawn in the City of Sin.

Chen Guo had completely lost the mood to play her own game, and was only concerned about Ye Xiu's situation. With more than three hundred Christmas thieves, the pressure of the pursuit was naturally considerable. Ye Xiu was focused, his eyes never leaving the screen for a moment. He had maintained this level of concentration for a long time.
