Chapter 145: Chapter 145: Stunning Strike (Additional release at 1300 subscriptions)

Translator: 549690339

Increasingly excited, Zhao Li exclaimed, “At this rate, won’t he just easily kill the boss like he’s toying with it?”

Many of the audience members also had a similar thought, as unfolding events on the screen were quite surreal.

When Li Yao wasn’t on stage previously, many people had switched to different screens.

As the commentators had mentioned earlier, there were mainly two types of bosses for the players to complete the trial.

According to the System’s statistics, nearly 20,000 of the 80,000 players have already been eliminated.

The remaining 60,000 players were essentially gathered in hundreds or even groups of a thousand for the Trial Grounds.

Moreover, the elimination numbers were continuously climbing.

The two types of monsters were River Beasts and the Monoceros Earth Dragons. So far into the battle…

If reviving once counts as another life, the river beasts have killed players over 60,000 times already.

Deaths at the hand of the Monoceros Earth Dragons have already exceeded 140,000, showcasing the plight of many unsuspecting players.

Comparatively, more and more players are challenging the river beasts, as many experts have mastered the tricks of taking down these bosses, with more and more players managing to progress to the second stage of the trial before their revival chances run out.

However, no player has been able to bring the Monoceros Earth Dragon to a barely alive state, showcasing the terrifying might of the creature.

Furthermore, the players were oblivious to the fact that they were dealing with a juvenile dragon.

The stark contrast in data vividly showcased the terror the Monoceros Earth Dragon imposes.

Regardless of the trial venue, players being crushed, gored, or struck dead by the Monoceros Earth Dragon were everywhere; an utmost atrocious sight indeed.

If they were ordinary players, it wouldn’t matter as much, but these were the elite players who had received the elite inheritance.

Yet, such a terrifying creature did not even come close to touching Li Yao’s clothing. The wide disparity struck the audience with an unreal, trance-like feeling.

Little Ze laughed and shook his head, saying, “Let’s leave the explanation to our professional commentator, KB.”

KB cleared his voice softly, saying, “That’s not possible. Given that the Prairie Fire God remained closely stuck at one point with his bizarre positioning, the Earth Dragon wouldn’t be able to use Shadow Roll. However, don’t forget that the Earth Dragon still has not used its charge or burrowing abilities.” The crowd nodded in realization as this peculiar situation continued for another ten seconds. The Earth Dragon seemed unable to bear such immense humiliation any longer.

With a heaven-shaking roar, it suddenly burrowed into the ground.

Just as the Earth Dragon screamed, Li Yao swiftly stowed away his great sword into his equipment bag.

His eyes stared intently at the trembling dust on the ground, then suddenly he leapt high into the air.

Because of the boots’ effects, he managed to jump a distance of over ten yards.

“What is he trying to do?” Little Ze cried in surprise.

Then, they saw the two-handed great sword reappear in Li Yao’s hands as he fiercely slashed downwards.

Largely due to the great sword, Li Yao’s descent speed increased quite significantly.

Meanwhile, the Earth Dragon had emerged from the ground, its horn pointing towards the sky, with its body also beginning to breach the surface of the ground.

Usually, due to its massive strength, the Earth Dragon’s body even managed to hover three yards above the ground.

However, the Earth Dragon’s body was too large to sustain the momentum from the ground for long. It quickly reached its limit.

Li Yao’s body also began to fall, and a faint cloud of red mist engulfed him. This was the effect of the Belt of the Mighty Bull.

Right now, Li Yao’s eyes appeared to be shining. As the Earth Dragon reached its peaked height and began to fall, his mighty sword, glowing with a red aura, struck the dragon’s horn.

Thud…

A sharp collision sound tore through the air, and then the audience saw Li Yao being flung away.

Li Yao managed to stabilize his body only after executing several Shadow Rolls. A visible mark appeared on the horn of the Earth Dragon, whose massive body by now had begun its descent. 𝗳r𝐞ew𝚎bn𝚘ve𝚕.c𝗼𝗺

The force of the Earth Dragon’s plunge, coupled with Li Yao’s increased falling speed due to the great sword, was further amplified several times over by the power of the Belt of the Mighty Bull manifesting through Li Yao’s movements.

Thus, under the confluence of several forces, the Earth Dragon slammed into the ground at a speed even faster than when it surfaced from the ground.

Boom…

-567

The ground trembled, and one could even hear the sound of the Earth Dragon’s bones shattering under the immense pressure, followed by a mournful howl as it writhed in extreme pain.

Li Yao also gracefully landed on the ground, having lost over 100 health points due to the counteracting force from the blow. He quickly drank an Intermediate Healing Potion.

Swiftly, he ran to the Earth Dragon’s side, raised his great sword, and began accumulating energy for his next attack.

Slash…

-1560

An extremely horrifying damage number floated up, causing everyone to wince at the sight.

A combination of breaking a defense and performing a triple Stored Force Slash was indeed spectacular.

66666666666666666666…

This was the current mood of all the spectators.

Like a crowd gone mad, the entire stadium seemed to have exploded with excitement, causing people to reel in dizziness.

“Replay, Replay, Replay, Replay.”

The scene that just unfolded was breathtaking but happened only in a split moment.

Even without the audience’s demand, the director was already switching to a replay.

“Is he really human? Considering his flawless judgement and incredible calculation skills, this is truly terrifying,” muttered Little Ze.

“I knew it was astonishing, but is it really that difficult?” Zhao Li questioned excitedly, “Could you please provide some commentary for that?”

KB took a deep breath and said, “You need to understand that it’s already complicated enough to determine the exact moment the Earth Dragon reemerges from the ground. Otherwise, so many players wouldn’t have been gored by a surprise attack. However, the Prairie Fire God went a step further, his actions reflecting a level of judgement and calculation that was several times more complicated.”

Little Ze interjected, “That’s right. If you think back to what happened, you’d realize that the Prairie Fire God successfully struck the Earth Dragon at the peak of its ascent and when it was just about to start its descent. Otherwise, the dragon’s upward force would have instantly killed the Prairie Fire God. This suggests that at the moment of his jump, he had already discerned the exact moment the Earth Dragon would emerge from the ground. Also, his timing of retrieving his great sword was crucial, as it aided in adjusting his falling speed.”

“Yes, only like that, could he break the supposedly impossible-to-counter attack so precisely. This is unquestionably divine gameplay,” exclaimed KB fervently.

Everyone knew that the Prairie Fire God couldn’t hear their applause. Nonetheless, there was a deluge of applause, the sound growing stronger and continuing uninterrupted.

The elite players all had discerning eyes, and they were swept up in the applause for the brilliant, yet terrifyingly risky gameplay.

“Amazing! He has managed something truly impossible. He’s out of this world,” said Jin Jin, usually proud but now moved enough by the gameplay to join in the applause.

“Hmm. Hunter, this does seem fun,” said Thousand Illusion Ice Feather, her eyes sparkling, revealing nothing of her thoughts.

Meanwhile, Li Yao carried on running circles around the boss.

The audience was now anticipating how Li Yao would deal with the earth dragon’s charge attack…
