Did he have an idea?
Yes sir!
The chance of success of capturing a monster was closely related to a Player’s Strength and Spirit. The other Players might be left helpless despite knowing about it, but Chen Mo was different. He had a title that could boost his attributes insanely—the Heinous!
Equipping the title “The Heinous” would increase both his Strength and Spirit by 100. Chen Mo had no clue how much the chance of success would increase by, but he knew it was going to multiply his attributes!
The only problem was, he would have to wait for three days before he could unequip the title “The Heinous” once he put it on. His name would turn black too. He would not be allowed to return to Aiur Town, which also meant he would not be able to leave Aiur Town.
When a Player reached Level 10, they would have to talk to the teleporting NPC in Aiur Town and choose to participate in the Trial of Innate Talents or teleport to one of the three main cities. However, Chen Mo would have to wait three days after equipping the title “The Heinous”.
Even if he put on the title “The Heinous”, there was no guarantee that he would be able to capture the Boss Monster still.
Should he take the risk?
Of course!
Chen Mo was not an indecisive person. Three days would only slow him down by a few levels at most. Unlike other Players that were desperately trying to level up their characters, Chen Mo did not really mind taking his time to level up his character. Besides, if he succeeded, he would have a Mutated Boss Monster as his lackey!
It was unlikely that he could find a better chance than now to capture a Mutated Boss Monster to be his lackey!
“Keep it up, the Boss Monster is almost dead. Use every skill you have on it!”
The Mutated Slime King only had 2% HP left. Xiaolou Fengyu, Leng Xiaoliu, and the rest of the Players were very excited.
It was a mutated Boss Monster, and they believed it was the first time that anyone had killed a mutated Boss Monster. It was surely going to drop some insane loots. Once they put up a post on the forum, they would be able to earn both fame and fortune!
“Get ready, even getting only a piece of the loots is still a profit for us!” the Players nearby were restless too. They were ready to sprint forward like it was a race.
“What’s happening? Why did he eerily become so dark!?”
Xiaolou Fengyu did not forget to keep an eye on Chen Mo. However, his eyes widened when he observed Chen Mo’s changes.
The masked Player that was no different from an ordinary Player suddenly began to emit a strong dark aura as he approached the Boss Monster!
“Quick, kill the Boss now!” Xiaolou Fengyu immediately had a bad feeling about it.
The Boss Monster still had 1% HP left!
The Players nearby started running at the Boss Monster. Xiaolou Fengyu, Leng Xiaoliu, and the rest of their crew maximized their damage output too.
The Mutated Slime King let out a furious roar to express its grief over its upcoming death.
A huge number of attacks were aiming at the Mutated Slime King. It would die when the attacks landed on it.
However, the Players were blinded by a brief flash. The attacks from the few dozen of Players had all missed!
The Boss Monster…it had vanished in the very last moment!
“What just happened?”
The normal Players that were planning to rob the loots halted in their tracks with blank faces. They were desperately looking for the Boss Monster!
“Attack the masked Player, he’s up to something!”
Xiaolou Fengyu let out a furious roar despite his usual gentle appearance!
It was him again!
He had seen everything clearly. The masked Player had waved his hand when he reached the Boss Monster, and the Mutated Slime King immediately vanished into thin air!
“A Blacklisted Player! He’s a Blacklisted Player!”
“Kill him!”
A few Players among the crowd yelled when they finally noticed Chen Mo who was engulfed in a black mist after hearing Xiaolou Fengyu’s angry roar.
They had no idea why the masked Player had become a Blacklisted Player all of a sudden, nor did they understand why there was a Blacklisted Player in Rookies Village where the PvP system was not unlocked yet.
However, the Players could not help but attack as soon as they saw the Blacklisted Player, since there was a chance that the Player would drop a lot of insane equipment.
A lot of attacks were aiming at Chen Mo just like how they were attacking the Boss Monster just a moment ago.
…
It worked! It was worth the risk of equipping the title “The Heinous”!
Chen Mo was overjoyed.
“HAHAHA, I’m afraid you won’t be killing me today!”
Chen Mo burst out laughing when he saw the attacks coming toward him from all directions. He did not even have time to check his lackey Boss Monster’s attributes.
Windspeed Evasion!
Slime King’s Roar!
Chen Mo started glowing. Both the Windspeed Evasion and the Slime King’s Roar were able to increase his movement speed, and together with the movement speed from the Windrunner Boots and the title “The Heinous”, his movement speed had shockingly reached 24. It was twice the movement speed of an ordinary Player!
Even though there were lots of attacks aiming at Chen Mo, they were mostly basic range attacks that did not have the ability to lock onto the target.
Chen Mo weaved through the attacks that were pouring down at his location like a phantom. He instantly blended into the crowd like a dark flicker.
“Stop him, don’t let him get away. He has a lot of outstanding equipment. Taking him down is better than killing the Boss Monster!”
Everyone was utterly shocked by Chen Mo’s speed, but they were convinced that the masked Player must have a lot of outstanding equipment in possession. Some of the attacks did inflict damage on the Player too, which meant they were allowed to attack the masked Player even though they were still in Rookies Village!
However, most of the Players nearby were just normal Players without any tracking abilities or skills with a huge AoE radius. It was impossible for them to intercept Chen Mo who was moving at such an insane speed.
Chen Mo nimbly weaved through the crowd like an eel. He abused his speed and sneaked his way out from the crowd in no time.
Xiaolou Fengyu and the others were not going to show any mercy again after their Boss Monster was stolen again. They believed the masked Player must have used some special skill or magic scroll to temporarily increase his speed. They might be able to catch up to the masked Player once the buffs wore off.
However, Xiaolou Fengyu, Leng Xiaoliu, and the others were soon staring at one another awkwardly. The masked Player that was previously still within their range of vision had completely disappeared.
“It must be a disguising or stealth skill! Did he return from one of the main cities? Otherwise, how is it possible for him to have such impressive equipment and skills!?” Leng Xiaoliu said while clenching his teeth.
Anyone would be mad if the Boss Monster they were attacking were stolen when it only had so little HP left, let alone the narrow-minded Leng Xiaoliu.
“Humph! I don’t care who he is, I will not forget this! I swear I’m going to make him pay once I found out who he is!”
Xiaolou Fengyu was wearing a dark expression too after suffering from a great loss twice in less than two hours.
“Count me in, I’ll give you all my help if Brother Xiaolou can find out who he is!”
The experts had their dignity and temper too. Their anger was no weaker than Xiaolou Fengyu and Leng Xiaoliu’s.
…
Chen Mo was extremely familiar with the Slime Valley. He used the skill Disguise and quickly ran to a deserted corner in the Slime Valley.
He immediately inspected the Mutated Slime King that he had captured.

Chen Mo wore a blank look when he saw his lackey Boss Monster’s attributes.
