Dominating the Pugilistic World With My Detective Skills - Chapter 48

Chapter 48: Great Eagle

What?

When he heard Ye Weiming’s words, Tang Sancai was flabbergasted.

As the most powerful player in the Tang Clan, Tang Sancai naturally knew that his clan had trap creation skills. But he had only entered the game for a short amount of time so his clan contribution points, money, and cultivation points were limited. It wasn’t enough for him to learn all the basic skills his clan provided. Tang Sancai might be the top player in his clan but he still couldn’t learn everything.

He didn’t learn the clan’s trap creation skills before, but he had seen his junior brothers and sisters using it before. With this in mind, he felt that his understanding of traps was better than most of the players in the game.

Yet, Ye Weiming understood it better than him!

Not only was his sword skill powerful, but he also managed to discover the trap earlier than him. He even explained the trap in detail. It was hard for Tang Sancai not to be stunned.

This fellow was indeed hard to deal with!

Even though he was dumbfounded, Tang Sancai still remembered to move. He flipped his right hand and a cobble appeared at the tip of his fingers. As he flicked his hand, the cobble turned into a ray of black light, hitting the steel wire hidden among the grasses accurately.

“Clang!”

The steel wire broke due to the collision. Then…

“Whiz! Whiz! Whiz! …”

Multiple arrows shot out from their hiding spots. Some of them were bamboo arrows that had been sharpened. Within a short moment, the area around the steel wire was covered completely with all kinds of concealed weapons.

The concealed weapons fired for 10 entire seconds. The lush green forest turned into a mess.

When they saw this scene, Ye Weiming and Tang Sancai felt chills down their spine. They were imagining the outcome if they hadn’t noticed the traps. Even Ye Weiming felt that his Dragon-Phoenix Sword wouldn’t be able to block all the concealed weapons.

As for Tang Sancai… let’s not mention him!

If they wanted to deal with this kind of trap, they needed to have Zhang Cuishan’s ability at the very least, right?

Isn’t it a little too much to set up such a huge trap to ambush a soymilk-selling Little White?

This is too overboard!

What on earth is the system doing?

While internally complaining and feeling shocked, Ye Weiming still remembered to send a team invitation to Tang Sancai. Tang Sancai accepted the request and immediately looked at the reward distribution method.

Distribution by contribution?

Tang Sancai was slightly astounded, but he smiled in the end. He didn’t say much but it was obvious that he was extremely satisfied with this distribution method.

In ‘Eternal Justice’, there were many reward distribution options in a team. Distribution by contribution was most suitable for teams with unfamiliar players. The items that their enemies dropped would be distributed to the team members based on their contribution in the fight. This contribution didn’t just refer to the damage one caused to their enemies. It would also calculate the damage one endured and various other components.

The calculation method for contribution points was slightly complicated. For instance, in terms of damage endured, as long as the enemy’s target was you, you would get points for it whether you received the attack or dodged it.

This would ensure the fairness of the distribution and prevent some team members from lazing around. The only thing it couldn’t ensure was that every player would get what they needed.

There was a possibility that a player wielding a sword might get a punching glove or a player who learned close-combat skills might get a treasured sword.

Thus, this kind of distribution method wasn’t useful for teams where all the players were close to one another. It was only suitable for people like Ye Weiming and Tang Sancai who didn’t have any relationship foundation for them to trust each other.

“Hmph! I didn’t expect the once formidable Great Eagle to rely on two brats to protect him! What a sorrowful scene! How funny!”

A voice filled with contempt was heard. Then three figures shot out from the forest, one at the front and two behind. They surrounded the three people.

The person who spoke was the man with a dark face. This person had a black mole on one side of his cheeks and was emitting strong killing intent from his gaze. He was carrying a sword with a satisfied smile on his face. His gaze landed on Soymilk Little White as he said, “I remembered how you annihilated my team when I just managed to get everything started. I was even chased by you for a thousand miles. I was almost killed because of you back then.”

“Time has changed. I, Lin Zhipei, am back again!”

When he heard the other person’s aggressive introduction, Tang Sancai looked at Soymilk Little White with a weird gaze. “You? Great Eagle?”

Soymilk Little White ignored Tang Sancai. He looked back at Lin Zhipei with a serious gaze. “I have never thought of taking your life. I just wanted to arrest you.”

“Bullshit!” Lin Zhipei said furiously, “I’ve killed more than ten people. Once I landed in the hands of the authorities, how can I stay alive?”

Soymilk Little White laughed coldly. “So you know that your crimes are unforgivable?”

As he spoke, he shifted his gaze to the two people behind Lin Zhipei. “Flower Picking Bee Ji Laiye, Maniac Gambler Ge Angshou, and Eight Directions Quake Lin Zhipei. Besides Chou Ba who has already been killed, the four bandit leaders of the Lotus Clan are all gathered here. This is Luoyang’s misfortune.”

As Soymilk Little White called out the names of his three enemies, their attributes appeared on top of their heads.

Lin Zhipei

Known in the pugilistic world as Eight Directions Quake. A martial arts master who did many evils. The big leader of the Lotus Clan.

Level: 35

Health: 16500/16500

Internal energy: 8000/8000

…

Ji Laiye

A famous lecher known in the pugilistic world as Flower Picking Bee. The second leader of the Lotus Clan.

Level: 23

Health: 9600/9600

Internal energy: 4300/4300

…

Ge Angshou

A compulsive gambler, who is also a mass murderer. The fourth leader of the Lotus Clan.

Level: 23

Health: 5900/5900

Internal energy: 3100/3100

…

The attributes of the three bosses were all displayed. This meant that both parties had formally entered the battle mode. Ye Weiming even noticed that Soymilk Little White, who was on his side, had similar attributes data floating up from his head.

Bai Zhanji (Injured)

Originally a constable from Department Six. Known as Great Eagle in the pugilistic world. After he was injured, he retired from the pugilistic world and started selling soymilk for a living.

Level: 30

Health: 23400/23400

Internal energy: 15900/15900

…

This soymilk-selling man was so powerful?

Ye Weiming finally understood why his enemies needed to ambush him while still laying such a frightening trap for him.

This fellow was definitely worth the trouble!

Even then, this trap might not be able to cause any substantial damage to this powerful boss.

Tang Sancai frowned when he looked at the attributes of the two sides. He asked, “Brother Little White, your attributes are really amazing. Why are you only at level 30?”

Soymilk Little White… oh wait, it should be Great Eagle Bai Zhanji now. Bai Zhanji gave a bitter smile but he still patiently explained to the two players, “In the pugilistic world, the most direct way of gauging a person’s strength is based on their levels. The level is a direct representation of a person’s comprehensive strength. If someone is very powerful in a certain aspect, at the same level, it means that he has a major weakness. Only the level can represent a martial artist’s comprehensive strength.”

He paused for a moment and added, “Of course, the standard I mentioned doesn’t include players like you.”

After he finished speaking, Brother Ye moved his body and charged towards Lin Zhipei. At the same time, he raised his voice and reminded the two players, “Swordsman Tang Sancai, Brother Ye Weiming, I can hold Lin Zhipei back for a moment. You need to get rid of the other two enemies as soon as possible and reinforce me.”

Ye Weiming and Tang Sancai felt speechless when they heard his plan.

Our level is less than 20 and yet, you want us to fight with two bosses above level 20 and even ask us to take care of them as soon as possible?

Why don’t you jump straight to heaven?

While they were complaining, Bai Zhanji had already exerted strength on his feet and leaped into the air. He turned in the air so that his head was facing the earth. Then from high above, he raised his palm and pushed it towards Lin Zhipei’s Bai Hui.
