Dominating the Pugilistic World With My Detective Skills

Chapter 52: You, Come Over!

The attributes of the Frog Skin Wrist Guards were not bad. As a green item, if he was able to gather the full set of it, its attributes would be even better.

Unfortunately, although its name was wrist guards, it was a weapon for fist-focused users. Ye Weiming had never learned any fist skills so it was useless to him. He could only sell it for money.

As for the ‘A Painful Bag Of Rice’.

What the f**k!

What the hell is this?

He can’t discard or destroy this bag of spoilt rice!

Did they plan to let it take up a space in a player’s bag so that the player would feel miserable all the time?

“Ouch! …”

While Ye Weiming was in a dilemma about what he should do with the bag of rice, a scream suddenly came from the battlefield on the other side. Ye Weiming turned his head. Bai Zhanji had been fighting with Lin Zhipei for a long time. After keeping the situation balanced for so long, he finally got slashed in his left ribs by his opponent. A deep wound was formed. His bones could be seen inside the wound.

In ‘Eternal Justice’, there were two forms of battle mode among the NPCs.

Normally, when players were participating in the battle, the mode of the battle would be similar to the mode when the players were fighting with bosses. The fight was still vicious but the images the players saw would be filtered first. The wounds still hurt but they healed quickly. The only impact it made was a drop in their health. It wouldn’t have any huge influence on the battle.

If it was a battle between NPCs, it would be a real battle. Once they got hurt, they wouldn’t be able to recover quickly and the wound would be very painful. It would also affect the combat ability of the injured NPC to a certain extent.

How much could the influence be?

It depended on the seriousness of the injury and the willpower of the injured.

Ye Weiming seriously suspected that the design of the mission was like this: As long as the players didn’t end their fight, the fight between the NPCs would remain balanced. Once the players stopped fighting, Little White would get injured so the players would feel anxious and the difficulty of the mission would rise.

He had to admit that the designers of this game were really evil!

After Bai Zhanji was injured, he was at a huge disadvantage. Ye Weiming didn’t have the time to continue complaining so he immediately turned around with his sword in his hand. He used his diaphragm and shouted at Lin Zhipei, who was attempting to kill Bai Zhanji, as he pointed at him with his left finger, “You, come over!”

Tang Sancai felt speechless when he saw this.

It’s starting again…

As expected, after Ye Weiming’s shout, Lin Zhipei abandoned Bai Zhanji whom he could have killed immediately and started charging towards Ye Weiming with bloodshot eyes.

Then they engaged in close combat.

The moment they exchanged blows, Ye Weiming felt unprecedented pressure. This level 35 Lin Zhipei was much more powerful than the other two bosses.

This person suppressed Ye Weiming entirely in terms of internal energy, lightness kung fu, and sword skills. Even with the absolute defensive ability of the ‘Dragon-Phoenix Sword’, Ye Weiming still found it strenuous to fight with him.

This was after he ate barbequed that could increase his attribute before the battle! His arm strength had increased by 97 points!

If that wasn’t the case, based on Ye Weiming’s current ability, he might not be able to handle more than three rounds of attacks from his opponent!

If it was one versus one, Ye Weiming would die today. If Lin Zhipei wanted to kill him, it was only a matter of time.

However, this wasn’t a one versus one battle. It was a three versus one.

After Ye Weiming voluntarily bore Lin Zhipei’s attacks, Tang Sancai immediately started reinforcing him with his long-range attacks. But Lin Zhipei wasn’t Ji Laiye. He wasn’t afraid of their one defending and one attacking tactic at all. The long sword in his hand danced up and down in the air. While giving Ye Weiming enough pressure, he was still able to block all the concealed weapons that Tang Sancai shot over.

When facing him, Ye Weiming didn’t even dare to change his skill to the ‘Sword of the Yue Maiden’ to help with his attacks.

Ye Weiming understood where his ability was at. If he dared to change to the offensive ‘Sword of the Yue Maiden’ now, the weakness of the sword skill would be revealed immediately, which was the lack of defensive power. This was equivalent to allowing his opponent to kill him.

Hence, even though it felt very frustrating, Ye Weiming could only execute the ‘Dragon-Phoenix Sword’ and defend against his opponent’s attack.

Fortunately, this scenario didn’t last for a long time. Bai Zhanji knew that the two players weren’t Lin Zhipei’s match at their current level so after bandaging his wound, he entered the battle.

The situation on the battlefield changed instantly the second Bai Zhanji entered.

He might not be as powerful as he was in the past when he chased Lin Zhipei until the ends of the earth, but his current combat ability was enough to have a duel with Lin Zhipei. It was reasonable to say that Bai Zhanji and Lin Zhipei were equal in strength.

No matter how powerful he was, due to the advantage in numbers, Lin Zhipei kept getting hit. However, since Ye Weiming didn’t dare to attack him and most of Bai Zhanji’s attack was blocked by Lin Zhipei, only Tang Sancai’s concealed weapons were able to hit his body. Every single hit only caused a two-digit drop in his health and it wasn’t a 100% accuracy rate.

In this heated battle, they were lucky if three out of ten concealed weapons managed to hit their opponent. Lin Zhipei either evaded the rest of the concealed weapons or blocked them. Sometimes, they were thrown back by his internal energy too.

Rather than saying Lin Zhipei couldn’t dodge all the concealed weapons, it was more accurate to say that he decided to sacrifice some of his health to save his internal energy.

In actual fact, the rate of his health dropping was around the same as his health replenishing rate.

Bai Zhanji fought with all his might. Amidst his fight, he took a chance to explain to the two players, “Lin Zhipei used to be a disciple of the Quanzhen Sect. He betrayed his sect and formed the Lotus Clan. During that period, he killed a swordmaster from the Huashan Sect and received the master’s ‘Swift Gale Sword’. Because of this scripture, his kung fu increased tremendously. You must be careful when fighting with him.”

Actually, he didn’t need to remind them. Ye Weiming and Tang Sancai could tell that Lin Zhipei’s sword was as swift as lightning. Because of his speed, the three of them weren’t able to bring out the advantage of having more people on their side.

Bai Zhanji might be able to continue dawdling with Lin Zhipei because of his high attributes, but Ye Weiming and Tang Sancai’s internal energy would get depleted soon. At that time, the situation would be even more precarious for them.

They mustn’t continue like this!

Ye Weiming made a decision instantly and opened his mouth, “Brother Little White, are you able to hold him back for ten counts?”

“For ten counts?” Bai Zhanji was stunned for a moment before nodding. He replied, “No problem.”

“Thank you, Brother Little White!” After he finished speaking, Ye Weiming moved to the side and exited the battlefield. He rushed towards Tang Sancai who was furiously shooting his concealed weapons at Lin Zhipei. Lin Zhipei wanted to stop Ye Weiming but Bai Zhanji was well-prepared. He blocked all of Lin Zhipei’s attacks.

The effective range of concealed weapons had a limit so when Ye Weiming executed his movement technique, he arrived in front of Tang Sancai within a blink of an eye. Before Tang Sancai could ask anything, an exchange request had already been sent out.

Tang Sancai was stunned. Then he quickly accepted the request.

Yu Daiyan placed a Mosquito Feeler Needle and a Seven Star Thorn on the trading column. He said in the team channel, “In the storyline, even Yu Daiyan wasn’t able to withstand the combined effects of the poisons in these two concealed weapons. Its effects might be decreased in battle mode but I think that Lin Zhipei cannot be compared with Yu Daiyan. Once he gets hit, he will be affected. However, you only have two chances. It’s up to you now!”

Poisonous concealed weapons!

Tang Sancai’s eyes lit up when he saw the two concealed weapons.

As a disciple of the Tang Clan, he knew how powerful poison could be. Unfortunately, it hadn’t been long since they entered this game. He might be the ‘eldest senior brother’ of the Tang Clan but he only had some achievements in terms of concealed weapons skills. He hadn’t learned how to make poisons.

He didn’t know how to make poisonous concealed weapons but he knew how to use poisonous concealed weapons.

“Don’t worry. I know what to do.”

After getting Tang Sancai’s confirmation, Ye Weiming suddenly noticed that the area he was standing in was quite spacious. He decided not to go back. He raised his hand once again and pointed at Lin Zhipei. “You, come over!”
