Chapter 107: When in Doubt, Call for Coordinates
“Damn it, although there aren’t any particularly strong ones, and their levels are generally similar to ours… there are just too many of them!” Heizi grumbled, swinging his sword helplessly. He and Jie Kun were trying to buy Meiduo time.
But when they looked back, they found the little loli already sitting on the ground, sobbing. Jie Kun and Heizi were speechless.
“What a joke! We can’t possibly escape now!” Seeing the Empire soldiers closing in, Jie Kun immediately cast a pre-planned fire wall, briefly blocking their path. He gritted his teeth and said, “Heizi, you go first. I’ll cover the rear. My attacks are area-of-effect, so I can hold them off longer…”
However, before Jie Kun could finish, Heizi’s eyes lit up with fervor as he interjected, “I won’t abandon my brother! Didn’t we promise to be each other’s angels?”
“Angels your ass! I meant for you to take Meiduo and run! You’re a warrior, you’re fast. I’ll stay and hold them off.”
“Oh, oh,” Heizi immediately understood. The two of them definitely wouldn’t be able to hold out for long. If they continued to waste time here, the terrified little loli Meiduo would still be captured. Only by having Jie Kun cover their retreat could Heizi have a sliver of a chance to escape with Meiduo.
“By the way, Heizi, did you take screenshots?” Jie Kun asked, not looking back, as he tossed fireballs one after another into the crowd of soldiers.
“Don’t worry, it’s professional instinct.”
“Good. Remember to call for backup. Hurry up and go!” Jie Kun said, giving Heizi a push. Heizi used the momentum to get to Meiduo’s side, scooped up the demi-human loli, and bolted.
Jie Kun couldn’t stop all the soldiers. They had already split into two groups, with one group continuing to pursue Heizi and Meiduo.
“Not bad. Not only did we get a demi-human girl, but also a mage. All excellent experimental subjects.” A soldier who looked like the captain grinned sinisterly, drawing his long sword and shouting to the surrounding soldiers, “Don’t kill them, capture them alive! Lord Eve will reward us!”
Hearing the word “reward,” the surrounding soldiers’ eyes became fervent and excited. They could hardly wait to experience the taste of being served by domesticated demi-human girls.
Jie Kun watched the soldiers before him silently. His magic power was running low. He could still cast three more fire walls or five flame bursts, but he also had a small trump card. With a flash of light in his hand, a sac dripping with blood and bone appeared. This was the poison sac from a Fire Poison Beast that he and Heizi had hunted. This Tier 2 magical beast looked like a pink rabbit, appearing very cute, but in reality, it could spray potent poisonous gas from its rear.
A player of level twenty and above would immediately get a poison buff dealing 1000 damage per second just by inhaling the gas. Even a tank warrior who had invested all their points into defense couldn’t last more than ten seconds. They had already researched that this rare magical beast relied on a small igniting organ within its body to activate the liquid in the poison sac, and then expel the gas. So, they had found several more of these magical beasts and dug out their poison sacs for emergencies. Now was the time for it to prove its worth.
Jie Kun began chanting spells rapidly. After prolonged, repetitive practice, the fire wall spell, which originally required a five-second chant, had been shortened to just one second. Soon, three fire walls formed a triangle, trapping him and the soldiers. At the same time, a pouncing soldier struck his shoulder with a sword.
Jie Kun didn’t hesitate. He threw the poison sac into the nearby fire wall. Soon, a foul-smelling scarlet gas emerged from the flames and began to diffuse into the surrounding air.
“Ugh… it’s so damn stinky…” Jie Kun muttered, then his vision went black. His health bar was depleted, and he transformed into an energy body, floating above his corpse. The view in front of him turned into the grey-white of death countdown. He watched the Empire soldiers die agonizingly, clutching their noses and mouths, their expressions solemn.
He then opened the public game channel and began uploading the evidence he had previously captured in Mudu Winter Town. Heizi was still not providing any updates; it was likely he was too busy to do so. It seemed he had to handle this task himself. After double-checking for any omissions, Jie Kun clicked to confirm and send, muttering to himself, “Go, Heizi! Take Meiduo and run, as fast as you can. It’s all I can do…”
The screenshots Jie Kun uploaded to the public channel quickly attracted the players’ attention, mainly because the scenes depicted were too grotesque and terrifying. Many players had a soft spot for kind and cute demi-humans, especially those with fluffy ears and tails. Little demi-human girls, in particular, were like little angels. In Dawn Town, these lovely elves would often prepare gifts for players in various ways—wild fruits they found in the wilderness and were reluctant to eat themselves, flower crowns they wove, and handmade shawls and scarves… But what were they seeing now? A morgue filled with severed limbs, bloody experiments, demi-human girls tied to a stage for humiliation…
A riot, comparable to the one when Ruo Yi was captured, began. “What the… is this real?” “Damn it, where did brother see this? Give me the coordinates, I’ll be there immediately!” “How can we stand this? Are the game developers out of their minds? We just had two quiet days, and our moods were improving, only for this to happen again?” “Kill them! I’m so angry, I can’t take it anymore.” “Call the coordinates!” “Call the coordinates! +1” … “Call the coordinates! +7916”
Jie Kun felt the atmosphere had been sufficiently built up. He opened the chat window and typed, “This is Mudu Winter Town, located in Frost Wolf Territory next to Gray Stone Territory. I’ve just died and am about to respawn, but my friend and a demi-human little girl named Meiduo are still being chased by the guards of Mudu Winter Town. Hurry!”
“Coming now, damn it!” “Coming immediately! Tell your friend to hold on!” “The teleportation array to Gray Stone Territory is open, everyone teleport directly!” “Meiduo? Is that the mischievous canine girl? I even told her fairy tales.” …
“Ding! Daily Villain Mission has been refreshed: Villain Mission One: Kill Eve. Villain Mission Two: Destroy the Demi-human Paradise. Villain Mission Three: Leave at least one hundred players with psychological trauma.”
Above the sky at the border of Frost Wolf Territory and Gray Stone Territory, Xi Wei, still riding a griffin, suddenly heard the system notification sound. He couldn’t help but freeze. What did this “scummy” system mean? It was telling him to go and conquer Mudu Winter Town so early? To be honest, Xi Wei hadn’t planned to interfere with Mudu Winter Town’s affairs so soon. The most important matter right now was to intercept the Pope. However, he reconsidered, thinking that going now might be an opportunity. After all, the Sky Knights had likely all been transferred to the Royal Capital, so Mudu Winter Town should be at its weakest now. As for the player missions, that would be easier. He could just go to Dawn Town and harvest some wheat to complete them. Thinking this, Xi Wei immediately patted the scruffy griffin’s bewildered head and commanded, “Turkey, turn around, fly northeast.”
