Chapter 227: The Ridiculous Kill Count

It was then that Li Chunhua realized that the fire was a bit familiar. It looked like the one wrapping around the Lich’s body they met at the entrance of Frost Cavern.

"Did you get after defeating the Level 30 Monster?"

"Yes...I’m sorry I didn’t tell you." Her question sparked guilt in him for hiding the matter.

"No need to. I’m happy for you that you got that guy’s skill as compensation after all he had done." Recollecting the time when Chef Long nearly died, Li Chunhua’s teeth itched but since the guy already died, she can no longer do anything else to it.

But the fire earlier...

If even she as a cultivator felt threat coming from it earlier, it means it must be definitely good. Chef Long had another card to protect him.

The others also contacted him about the fire but upon knowing it was his doing, Siri and Elga had mixed reactions.

[Proficiency +2]

[Proficiency +2]

[Proficiency...]

[Your proficiency abysmal fire control reached Level D.]

[Abysmal Fire D Level: 126/10,000]

[+5% increase in fire damage. Current fire damage 12%]

[You’ll now able to melt items and monsters of silver grade or with D-Level Fire Resistance and below.]

The best way of raising proficiency was to devour but the exchange was consuming his Mana. Controlling the fire in just a span of 4 minutes already made him feel lethargic.

[Your Mana is below 30%. If your Mana falls to 0, the player will receive a penalty, status ailment: Mana Overdraft. Please rest to recover.]

Long Haoran checked his mana.

[Mana: 587/2310]

It was to be expected but if he reduced its range, the mana consumed should be less. Still, it was a good harvest.

"Leader Long! In front of you!"

George had just finished killing two tenacious Zergs when he saw the some figures wrapped in black flames rushed towards their leader who seemed to be preoccupied.

Long Haoran merely looked at them. He swung his pan once. The impact caused the Zergs to be thrown again to the fire and finally died. "Hukk!"

Seeing the fire weakening, Long Haoran contacted the others.

"Don’t worry. I will take care of it." Li Chunhua reassured the rest.

George was stunned. Leader Long pushed back those creatures with more than 40 Defense stats with just one swing?

George looked at his stats.

[Level: 7 Str: 45 /Def: 42/ Sta: 18/20/ Dex: 23 / Agi: 31/ SE: 21/ CP: 27]

(A/N: SE- Soul Energy. Beastman use soul energy instead of mana to transform and used their beast innate skill.)

If it was in the past, at level 7, the average STR and DEF will only be around 25 to 30 but because of consuming those delicious foods that the ELF gave and the spicy wine, it rose to 45 but still he wasn’t capable of reenacting the leader’s move.

"Hukk!" Three figures ran towards him.

His hand turned to long silver claws gleaming with light and slashed the Zergs in three to four moves.

[You’ve got 100 experience points.]

[You’ve got 75 experience points.]

[You’ve got 85 experience points.]

[Stamina: 17/20]

After the monster population decreased to [2570], the fire had simmered down leaving a scorched land.

The surviving Zergs hiding in the tunnels detected the threat was gone and took advantage of it. They rushed again.

George turned towards his Leader.

Long Haoran signaled them to back off. "Retreat!"

He run towards the lollipop forest and took a break to scan his inventory of the stamina recovery food.

George followed him and just after their foot just stepped onto the forest, they felt earth rumbled under his feet and temperature drastically fell.

He spun his neck and saw the three-meter tall wall made of ice emerging from the trench.

"Hukk?" The appearance of the ice wall disrupted the Zergs’ plan. They tried to break the wall but their sharp nails were broken instead. With the path ahead blocked, they had no choice but to take a detour.

"Leader Long!" He stammered staring at the wall.

Long Haoran looked at it calmly. "It’s the landowner," before he took out the food.

[Bear-Shaped Dumplings...]

[Blood Karmic Rice Balls...]

He distributed 5 pieces of rice balls and dumplings to George without saying anything before consuming 3 bottles of mana.

The mana given should be only a total of 75 points but because of the gears’ boost of 400%, he recovered 900.

[Mana: 1487/ 2310]

Startled, George looked at the exquisite and delicate food on his palms. He recognized it as the ones Elf gave before the start of the Tide.

He still had some in their inventory but Leader Long gave his share to him. Recalling the rumors that he was the one behind the amazing food buffs, George quickly devoured the food, stored the rest. "Thank you." He wiped the corner of his mouth.

[+1 Stamina]

[+1 Stamina]

[Stamina: 20/20]

"They’re digging up!" Li Chunhua informed the other sides.

Long Haoran and the others heard the warning and climbed back to the walls and shouted the artilleries to get ready.

Ten feet was not long, the Zergs reached the surface in just 10 seconds.1-meter holes appeared everywhere.

"Hukk!"

The moment figures jumped out of the holes, they were greeted by the artillery, stones and magic arrows. "Now’s our chance! Fire!"

"Hukk!"

[Battle Cry Skills Activated]

[Monster Population: 2,765]

With the monster not crowding together and enforced the cowardly but effective playing style of attacking using the ’Battle Cry’ before retreating to the holes, the third round proved to be very time consuming.

The players suffered a bit from the effects and their heads were dizzy. A gap formed in their attacks.

"Damn." Bai Susu shook her head.

Meng Chu also clutched his head.

Outside the Death Zone, the players were once again flabbergasted by the killing counts of the first place in both categories.

The second places and after were only three digit values and the points didn’t rise that fast contrary to this monster.

[1. Salted Fish...5,866]

Just how did they achieve that kind of kill count?

[1. Anonymous...967]

[1. Anonymous 2...754]

And these two were no doubt in the same territory! No player could ever get close to that numbers. Just how did these two reach it?

"Leader, who could it be?"

Bai Meirin replied, "One of them should be Baozi. And the other one should be that guy who sold parts of the snake boss on the first night."

"Damn, at this rate, they’re going to leave all players behind with their performance."

[Monster Population: 2,634]

[Monster Population: 2,515]
