Online Game: The King of the New World - Chapter 365
Chapter 365 I Don’t Have the Courage
Xu You did a wonderful job of “letting the water go”, Brother Shimian attacked me carelessly for a moment. He was attacked a few times before losing the duel. No one would think it was “letting go”. Even though I was given a glass of wine to launch a storm-like attack, how could a druid in the form of a wild bear compare to a poisoner’s attack speed? Furthermore, Brother Shimian also activated the [Cut] skill.
Therefore, in the eyes of the bystanders, Xu You’s failure was very natural. However, in the eyes of Brother Shimian, he was unclear. After all, the person concerned knew the situation at that time the best.
After Xu You failed, Wet Cotton Tonight looked at Xu You coldly and didn’t say anything. She didn’t know what she was thinking.
Seeing this, Xu You stood up and patted his knees. He smiled and said, “I was careless this time, but I still lost. In order to show my respect, I changed a few pieces of equipment, and then we’ll fight again!”
Hearing this, Brother Shimian only snorted in response. Hence, Xu You changed into a few pieces of blue equipment. However, some of them didn’t add any strength. There was nothing he could do about it. This was just an expedient measure. He wouldn’t take out Dragon Fang.
After changing his equipment, Xu You applied for a duel. After arriving at the dueling arena, he had already fought four consecutive battles. However, there was still no situation where he had left the “Heart Stasis” state when he fought the Black Dragon. This proved that he was not tired and had not reached his limit.
After winning the duel just now, Brother Shimian seemed to have turned mute and stopped talking. Xu You applied for the duel, and he silently accepted it. Then, the duel began again.
However, in this duel, Brother Shimian no longer entered stealth. Instead, he rushed towards Xu You and launched an attack. Seeing this, Xu You was stunned. Then, he laughed, “This guy seems to understand my intentions, but why would he cooperate with me?”
Perhaps only Brother Shimian knew this question, but it was also good that he had a partner who knew his purpose, so the test results would be much better.
As a result, this duel lasted for more than 10 minutes. Furthermore, Xu You was completely on the defensive, allowing Brother Shimian to continuously attack. This situation caused the surrounding players to look at each other. Were the two people in the duel arena engaged in a duel?
But whether or not it’s a duel, These 10 minutes had opened the eyes of the players present once again. The dwarf was truly too powerful. The success rate of his battle skill was over 95%, and only a few of them had been attacked. However, after knowing that the success rate of the dwarf’s battle skill was not 100%, they did not know why it had become so much calmer. Perhaps 100% was too exaggerated.
So is this 95% success rate real? Did Xu You deliberately release water? The answer was no. Xu You had indeed failed in a few battles. The reason was that Brother Shimian’s attacks were getting more and more fake. He had successfully deceived Xu You. Obviously, Brother Shimian was also improving when Xu You was improving.
“So he also used me as a training partner. No wonder he didn’t say anything just now. Very, very good!” Xu You praised Brother Shimian endlessly in his heart. When he used others, wouldn’t others use you?
As a result, Xu You’s test goal was completely achieved. He fought with Brother Shimian for a total of two hours, and the number of duels exceeded 15 times. Therefore, he fought with “Heart as still as water” for almost two hours. However, it wasn’t until the last two duels that Xu You felt tired and forcefully withdrew from the “Heart as still as water” state.
This fact proved that Dick’s words were correct. Fighting against Player PK and against Lord level monsters would consume a different amount of mental energy. After reaching a conclusion, Xu You didn’t need to continue fighting anymore.
After being defeated again because of the ineffectiveness of Heart’s Still Water, Brother Shimian also noticed Xu You’s condition and asked, “Are you tired?”
“Yes, that’s all for today’s battle. Thank you for your cooperation.” Xu You also took the opportunity to bid farewell. It was time for him to go offline and rest. His hidden mission was temporarily impossible.
“… Alright.” Brother Shimian put away his dagger and stared fixedly at Xu You. At this moment, none of the players who were watching them fight were left. It was obvious that the two of them were Zhou Yu and Huang Gai. One of them was willing to fight while the other was willing to take it. This kind of cooperative duel was not worth watching. Although the super high combat skill was amazing, it was meaningless to watch it for a long time.
After all, all the players here were PK experts, and their views on battle techniques were different. Some felt that a good battle technique was basically invincible in PK, while others felt that a battle technique was just a technique. No matter how perfect it was, there were still flaws. Moreover, there were many weaknesses in a battle technique, such as fake movements. As long as one used it well, their battle techniques would not be that good.
Of course, to be able to cultivate a battle skill to such an extent was no ordinary person. Furthermore, everyone’s conditions were similar. Wasn’t it an advantage to be able to cultivate a battle skill better than others? Therefore, no one would deny that the dwarf Wuchou was a powerful player.
“Will you come here again in the future?” Seeing that Xu You was about to leave, Brother Shimian asked indifferently.
After hearing this, Xu You smiled and replied, “I like to wander around, so I don’t necessarily come here again. There are dueling grounds in all six major cities, right?”
“Then take your time. I won’t send you off.” Brother Shimian said and walked towards the center of the dueling arena. Xu You looked at the little dwarf’s back and couldn’t help but laugh as he muttered, “This guy isn’t addicted to practicing, is he?”
After watching for a while, Xu You shook his head and left the City of Sunrise Dueling Arena. It was already three o’clock in the morning. It was time to carry his wife to bed.
After Xu You left, Brother Shimian urged the members of the Reaper Sickle to continue their training. After that, he walked back to his original resting place and sat down. He wasn’t there in the afternoon, so he didn’t see Wuchou’s video. Now, he could watch it.
However, a player walked to his side and said to him, “Brother Mian, would you like one?”
Brother Shimian raised his head to look. It turned out that he was a newly joined comrade-in-arms. His name was “One Step to the Top”. This elven sniper’s strength was not ordinary. As soon as he entered the mercenary corps, he won the favor of the Commander’s Kindergarten. He successfully entered the circle at the top of the mercenary corps. He went to the Seafood Pavilion for dinner yesterday morning.
Brother Shimian shook his head as he watched the cigarette handed over from the top. Seeing that, Brother Shimian also sat down beside Brother Shimian and looked at the PK players in the dueling arena with his cigarette in his mouth.
After a moment of silence, he stepped to the top and asked, “Brother Mian, where did that dwarf come from? Was he from the Blizzard Mercenary Corps?”
Brother Shimian shook his head and said, “I don’t know, but for such a powerful player, if it was someone from the Blizzard Mercenary Group, we should have received news.”
“That’s why.” He took a step to the top and took a deep breath. Then, he spat out a few cigarette rings and asked gossipily, “Brother Mian, do you like that Mengyu Chenxi?”
Brother Shimian couldn’t help but be stunned when he heard this. His expression became bashful and he denied, “No, climb to the top. Don’t guess randomly.”
“Brother Mian, your appearance has already betrayed you. Furthermore, this matter is almost known to everyone in the mercenary corps.” He took a step to the top and mocked.
“This … That’s their nonsense. It’s not true. She’s already in charge of famous flowers, so why would I like her?” Brother Shimian shook his head again, but his tone wasn’t so firm this time.
“So what? Although a famous flower has its owner, I’m here to loosen the soil. What are you afraid of?” He took a step to the top and shook his head.
“Impossible. She’s not interested in me.” Brother Shimian said somewhat dejectedly. After Zhao Chen and the others left today, Guild Leader Kindergarten talked to him again, but still persuaded him to give up. Brother Shimian’s words had already told him the answer to climb to the top.
Hearing this, he lowered his head and said in a sad tone, “Sigh, it’s a pity that such a beauty. I heard that Yue Wuyou is very playful, and I don’t know how that guy captured the hearts of these beauties. His fame isn’t that great either. He used to be fine, but now he can’t even make the ranking list. Maybe he’s some wealthy second-generation person.”
“No, no, Miss Chenchen is not that kind of person!” Hearing this, Brother Shimian immediately retorted excitedly. However, this sentence was a little strange. He was only speaking for Zhao Chen, but he did not deny the claim that he had climbed to the top with one step towards Xu You. It seemed that Brother Shimian was also hostile towards Yue Wuyou.
“Sorry, Brother Mian, I shouldn’t have said that.” A strange smile appeared at the corner of his mouth after he took a step to the top and said to Brother Shimian, “Sorry, Brother Mian, I shouldn’t have said that.”
“It’s fine. I’m excited. Actually, the Guild Leader is right. No matter what happens to Miss Chen Chen, it has nothing to do with me. I just miss her unilaterally.” Brother Shimian said self-deprecatingly.
“No way, Brother Mian. How can you know the result if you don’t try your best to pursue it once?” He said excitedly as he climbed to the top.
“I’ve pursued it before.”
“Is there really? Have you ever openly pursued someone? Brother Mian, you can’t even do this. How can a woman like Mengyu Chenxi treat you seriously?” He took a step to the top and said hatefully.
Hearing this, Brother Shimian was stunned. He turned his gaze to the face that had reached the top in one step. At that moment, the expression on his face was a little unnatural, but it was quickly concealed.
After a long time, Brother Shimian shook his head and said disappointedly, “Forget it, I don’t have the courage.”
