Chapter 533 - Even 170’s a Plausible Figure

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

The strategy that Li Yi had in mind was very simple. He would bring two healers into the party and request them to log out after they made their way inside the dungeon. Halfway through the battle, Li Yi would use Camouflage to flee from battle and would log out later on. The healers would then log back in so that they could replenish the party’s HP.

Firelord’s Instance Dungeon only allows two players to battle simultaneously, and when the party’s numbers exceeded that value, the third player would be unable to enter the dungeon. The strategy that Li Yi devised had cleverly avoided the ‘2-player’ limitation and in turn, allowed the party’s numbers to grow.

Whether his plan would succeed, Li Yi was unsure. However, they would never know the answer if they never tried it out. Thus, he pulled Fire Ice and Little Elf from the Magical Realm over.

Fire Ice knew ‘Holy Light illumination’, which allowed continuous healing for five minutes; whereas Little Elf from the Magical Realm knew ‘Breath of Fresh Air’ which also gave five minutes of continuous healing. With their aid, the battle would progress much smoother.

“Would this work?” Doubt stirred within Ouyang Qian the moment she saw Li Yi adding more members to the party.

“How would I know if I don’t test it out?”

“Fine.”

Following Li Yi’s instructions, Fire Ice entered the dungeon first and logged off subsequently. Behind her was Little Elf from the Magical Realm, who also logged out after entering the dungeon, followed by Li Yi who was the last to enter.

Fire Ice and Little Elf from the Magical Realm would alternately login after ten minutes, and once they used their ultimate healing skills, they would forcefully leave the party. That was Li Yi’s combat strategy.

Li Yi grinned at Ouyang Qian, “Whether this works or not, we’ll know once we try it out.”

The battle had begun, and Firelord was bellowing again...

Since half of Firelord’s body was submerged in lava, players were unable to approach him and had to use long-ranged attacks. Simply put, recruiting melee classes to combat Firelord was basically asking for death.

Li Yi and Ouyang Qian held strong. They used the terrain’s structures to reduce incoming damage. Their current attempt was evidently much successful than the previous one.

Pretty soon, they had already lasted for ten minutes. Li Yi and Ouyang Qian were at low health. It was at this moment that Li Yi chose to retreat and used ‘Camouflage’ to forcefully leave the battle. He then logged off a moment later.

Li Yi took off his goggles and shouted, “Fire Ice! Now!”

Fire Ice logged back in and cast Holy Light Illumination to replenish Ouyang Qian’s health.

“I’m done!” Fire Ice shouted out.

Jubilant, Li Yi yelled, “Leave the party!”

Fire Ice successfully left the party, but the moment Li Yi logged back in, tragedy struck...

A white flash filled his vision. By the time he was online, he was forcefully booted out of the dungeon.

‘Dungeon attempt failed...’

“Ermm... Qian’er, are you dead yet? I’ve been transported out.”

“...” Qian’er sent out a string of periods to express her current feelings.

After Fire Ice had left the party, Ouyang Qian carried on for another ten minutes. It was then that Little Elf from the Magical Realm logged back in and was transported out from the dungeon directly beside Li Yi.

The design of Firelord’s Instance Dungeon was unique. It allowed players to log in once, but not twice...

The replacement strategy was a failure...

Little Elf from the Magical Realm tilted her head and eyed Li Yi quizzically. “Since when did you hook up with that big-chested woman?”

With a serious face, Li Yi responded, “What do you mean by hook up? She was my girlfriend in the past life. She’s the reason I’ve returned.”

Little Elf from the Magical Realm heaved a sigh. “Could your lies get any worse?”

Li Yi was annoyed as well. “Nobody believes the truth in this decade.”

Little Elf from the Magical Realm snorted, “If you call this the truth, then I, Yang Rong, have wasted my twenty plus years of existence.”

Li Yi stayed silent. He did not utter a single word.

“1, 2, 3, 4, 5...” Little Elf from the Magical Realm raised her fingers and began to count.

Puzzled, Li Yi asked, “Director Yang, what’re you counting?”

“I’m counting the number of your girlfriends.”

“The number of my girlfriends?” Li Yi was irritated.

“17!”

‘Pffft...’

Li Yi was not sure whether to laugh or cry. “How’s that even possible. You aside, the only woman that I’ve had a relationship with is Jiaojiao...”

“U-U-Us? Since when we had a relationship???” Little Elf from the Magical Realm’s gaze was adrift.

Li Yi was puzzled. Did he dream that encounter?

“Even 17’s a small number. By the way things are progressing, even 170’s a plausible figure.”

Just then, Fire Ice had logged back and was subsequently booted out. She had only heard half of their dialogue, and could not help but to inquire, “Sister Rong, what’s plausible?”

Little Elf from the Magical Realm rubbed Fire Ice’s head and smiled mischievously, “She’s one of them.”

“...”

Fire Ice was confused, she still did not understand the situation.

Little Elf from the Magical Realm walked beside Fire Ice’s ear and whispered, “Dark Wing told me just now that he wants you to join him in his room tonight...”

“Ahhh!” Fire Ice shrieked and her face turned beet red.

“What were you guys talking about?”

“Nothing!” Little Elf from the Magical Realm and Fire Ice spoke in unison.

Ouyang Qian walked out from the dungeon. She died and corpse ran back. The attempt had ended in failure.

“My bad, the strategy’s a failure.”

Ouyang Qian replied with a smile, “You have my thanks. The results aren’t important, the main thing is that you were sincerely helping me.”

“Nice to meet you all, my name’s Ouyang Qian.”

Ouyang Qian shook hands with Little Elf from the Magical Realm and Fire Ice and proceeded to add them as friends. Her handshake with Little Elf from the Magical Realm was brief, but when it came to Fire Ice, she maintained her grip without loosening at all. Furthermore, her huge gorgeous eyes were glinting.

‘She’s done for, her female brute’s characteristics are leaking out again...’

Li Yi noted clearly while standing aside.

“Looks like the only choice is to attempt it again in the future.” Ouyang Qian was ready to call it quits.

Li Yi responded, “If you really want to fight it, I have a plan, but...”

“Okay, what?” Ouyang Qian was not listening to Li Yi at all. She was still gripping Fire Ice’s hand, and her thoughts had drifted to who knows where.

Li Yi continued, “Never mind, we’ll continue this conversation tomorrow. I’ll message you again if the plan works.”

“Okay, okay, so you’re called Fire Ice? How old are you? Do you have a boyfriend...” Ouyang Qian was dragging Fire Ice far, far away.

Little Elf from the Magical Realm completed her analysis. “Lil Perverted Yi, does your big chested friend here have some kind of mental disease?”

“Mental disease?”

“If not, then why’s she acting that way to Fire Ice?”

“I don’t sense anything wrong about it.” Li Yi said a flat out lie.

“I keep feeling that there’s something amiss.”

“You’re overthinking it.”

Li Yi gestured towards Little Elf from the Magical Realm, “Let’s go.”

“Where to?”

“We’re gonna book a room.”

“Bah!” Little Elf from the Magical Realm was beet red.

“I want you to accompany me for a boss fight.”

“Within the continent or outside it? Just summon me over when you get there, I need to prepare Momo’s meal.”

“That’s fine as well.”

Using the Reusable Teleportation Stone, Li Yi returned back to the Invincible Continent’s Celestial Capital.

Li Yi paid the Auction House a visit and purchased a pile of fire-related materials. He then ‘Teleported’ to Abyssal Canyon Crevice, and summoned Onyxia to fly him over to the Western Continent.

While Onyxia was flying him over, he synthesized the fire-related materials into a bunch of ‘Advanced Fire Resistance Potions’. They were created to reduce the damage they would take when facing Firelord.

Onyxia flew at high speed, and after half an hour, they had reached the Western Continent’s Land of Light.

They were at the Holy Light Frontier within the Land of Light.

Below them was a dilapidated straw hut.

Li Yi took out his friend summoning tool, called over Little Elf from the Magical Realm and issued his orders to Onyxia.

“Blast it!”

Onyxia sucked in a deep, deep breath...

Gouts of fearsome flames were directed at the straw hut, instantly turning it to ashes.

“May the holy light cleanse all evil!”

A figure wreathed in holy light flew out from the hut and appeared before Li Yi.

The holy-light staff wielding female wearing white clothes was floating silently in mid-air.

She was the Western Continent’s hero, the Holy Light Envoy, Elenor.

Once he saw that Elenor had flown out, Li Yi heaved a long sigh of relief. The reason he came to the Western Continent was for Elenor alone. However, Elenor was hard to track down, as she would sometimes be in the Land of Light or Silver Moon Canyon.

“Attack!”

Li Yi gave his orders to Onyxia, and at the same time, he initiated his own attack.

Thud! Thud! Thud!

Three Meteor Arrows hurtled over. However, Elenor gently raised her staff and erected a Holy Light Wall, which deflected all the arrows.

Among the three heroes of the continents within King of Pantheon, Augustus was tied with Emperor Lan in terms of strength, whereas Elenor was slightly weaker than them. The reason being that she constantly used her own power to seal the dimensional cracks, which left her in a state of Weakness all year long.

The Elenor before him was currently in her weakened state.

The strength of the three heroes would constantly grow along with the level of the players.

Onyxia let loose her Dragon Breath and once again, it was halted by Elenor’s Holy Light Wall. Li Yi nocked his bow, and after firing eleven arrows, the wall shattered and disappeared.

“Thud!”

Elenor’s head was struck with an arrow, which dealt a critical hit of [−10988].

“The holy light shall punish all evil. May your souls receive salvation.”

Holy Light Envoy, Elenor’s main feature was not her kindness, but instead her long-windedness. This camp hero’s hobby was to spread the gospel, and while battling, she would constantly preach to no end...

“The one who needs salvation is you, Elenor! Stop struggling and admit your defeat!”

Li Yi thundered and after charging a Powered-up Arrow, he let it loose.

“Thud!”

[−6871]

Elenor’s Holy Light Wall was unable to withstand the Powered-up Arrow. It penetrated the wall directly and instantly dealt damage.

“Holy Light Blade!”

Elenor gently raised her staff, and hundreds of Holy Light Blades appeared above her head. They all flew directly towards Li Yi.

Onyxia flapped her wings in order to evade them. Despite that, a majority of them still struck her body, and a small fraction struck Li Yi,

With the god healer Little Elf from the Magical Realm at his side, the Holy Light Blades were no threat to Li Yi’s life. His HP was reduced and subsequently replenished. He flew freely as if there was no danger to him.

Li Yi was engaged in aerial combat with Elenor, and while they fought, Li Yi continued to ascend.

This was the Western Continent, and whenever their hero was attacked, all of their players would be notified. Therefore, he needed to finish the battle as quick as possible.

“God Mode!”

“Wind Miracle!”

Once they saw the traces of Western Continent players appearing below, Li Yi and Little Elf from the Magical Realm unleashed their ultimate skills simultaneously and attacked with all their might.

Elenor’s stance was growing weaker, and her breathing was starting to get ragged. Her rate of attack had also decreased by a significant amount.

The Western Continent players below them were gathering en masse and those with flying mounts were already making their way over.

‘The situation’s getting critical!”

“Seal!”

Li Yi whipped out a Dark Contract Scroll and used it directly on Elenor...
