Chapter 360 - 336: Defeating Baron Nash
--- System Prompt: Due to Baron Nash being in a stunned state for an extended period, your "Intelligence Analysis Skill" has detected the enemy’s weakness. Your attack will further ignore 25%-50% of the opponent’s defense. (Note: The weakness effect reduces 25%-50% defense on top of the reduction from the stun effect itself, resulting in a total reduction of 31%-75%)
Ha ha! Wahahaha! Another timely Intelligence Analysis! Every time the Intelligence Analysis kicks in, it’s exhilarating moments of slaying bosses for me, just like when I killed the Overseer at the Pool of Radiance and the Demigod at sea, and now, of course, it’s the same!
At this moment, Baron Nash, whose defense has drastically decreased, is no longer the formidable wall that drives Da Fei to despair, but a mere punching bag! At the same time, the unused funnel’s life and stamina regeneration buff, which adds +1 per second and was yet to be plundered by the BOSS, unexpectedly played a significant role at this critical moment! Of course, mainly, Da Fei’s Sea Monster Hunter title also contributes an extra 20% to life and stamina.
Victory is within sight! Just then, a red light explodes on Da Fei’s screen!
--- System Prompt: Warning! Japan’s player "Haidao Yigong" has joined the battlefield! Please prepare for combat!
Da Fei’s heart tightens! What’s expected has finally arrived! If you had come earlier, maybe you could have killed me, but now the situation is under my control, who can be sure?
Da Fei shouted, "Bomb your frog! Freaking frog! Dare to come a bit closer? I will make you cry out in pain!"
Mitsubishi Team Command Center, in front of the foggy big screen, even Japan’s topmost professional players are perplexed!
Even the best military strategists must take military risks without understanding the situation. Therefore, even the best professional players must make decisions when they can’t calculate their moves! And naturally, the decision falls on Captain Tsukamoto’s shoulders again. Tsukamoto seems to understand why Mr. Hirata Hirao often shows an unambitious attitude. This captain genuinely is a scapegoat.
After a tense decision-making, Tsukamoto finally made up his mind: "Mr. Gao Chang, you go first!"
Letting BOSS silently make progress indicates a significant advancement by Da Fei; any delay now could miss a strategic opportunity, a responsibility he couldn’t bear. However, the responsibility of defeat is equally significant, so the most balanced approach is to let Haidao Yigong’s troops attack first to test the enemy’s situation. If the situation turns favorable, then Mr. Tsujiyama and Mr. Yamazaki waiting in the sewers would follow suit.
After all, this competition does not support teaming up; even players from the same country are technically opponents in the rules, and once they get close, it’s a battle of friendly fire, which is quite troublesome. Although this hall is big, it cannot support the deployment of three massive Hell Armies, not to mention that they have already witnessed the BOSS’s extensive damage capabilities.
Haidao Yigong, already on standby for a long time, entered the fog as if facing a great enemy, with Igarashi staring intensely at the big screen, looking extremely solemn.
The battle begins! Then shouts incomprehensible to the Chinese echo through the fog.
"What is he saying?" All at the command center were puzzled, and Haidao Yigong also slowed his steps.
"Frogs, what kind of frog and butterfly? Lots of gibberish on the translator! It’s not very clear."
"Could there be frog monsters in the water here? But, he has no reason to tell us, right?"
Sweat beads on Tsukamoto’s forehead, and he clenched his teeth and waved: "Go!"
In the fog, the silhouette of Da Fei’s troops is faintly visible, and just then, a booming sound effect from Haidao Yigong’s big screen erupts!
--- System Prompt: You have been infected by "Super Black Death Plague" by China’s player "Da Fei"...
--- System Prompt: You have been infected by "Insect Swarm Plague" by China’s player "Da Fei"...
--- System Prompt: You have been infected by "Corpse Poison Plague" by China’s player "Da Fei"...
"Nani?" The entire command center is shocked!
...
Meanwhile, seeing the three rows of system prompts scrolling across the screen, Da Fei literally bursts out laughing! Oh my gosh! He really dared to come over? Didn’t the Koreans tell him how they died? Well, it makes sense; how could Koreans tip off the Japanese? They’d rather drag a few Japanese down with them when they die!
And just then, a buzzing explosion reverberates through the hall!
--- System Prompt: Your Vice Hero Alicia has released the "Great Bee Swarm Irritation Technique," causing 134 points of magic damage to all enemy targets in tactical positions, and all enemy targets enter the "Hive Blindness" and "Swarm Frenzy" state!
Da Fei’s eyebrows twitch! A great Bee Swarm Irritation Technique that affects the entire field! It’s the first time seeing Alicia use it! Well, it’s not surprising since her specialty is "Hive Queen", what’s key is now, the Japanese can’t even move, they don’t even have the opportunity to heal or make a last-ditch attack before dying!
Wahahaha! I really did want to see how these level 1 to 3 soldiers with only 20 points of blood could withstand the triple plague for a few seconds, but I’m too busy fighting the BOSS right now and don’t want any accidents to occur. I’m taking precious time out of my busy schedule to finish you off!
Da Fei’s troops immediately turn back and shoot an arrow, and the rain of arrows roars through the air towards the crowded entrance of the sewer where the Demon Army is located, creating a burst of fire!
...
At this moment, the Mitsubishi Command Center, like a site hit by a major earthquake, is blown away by the shock! Three plagues! Blinding! Heavy firepower strikes from the fog! The astonishing damage data row by row on the big screen refreshes the Japan Region professional players’ understanding of Da Fei’s strength! Meanwhile, for professional players whose neural response is precise to 0.1 seconds, a second feels like a minute! Two seconds seem like two hours have passed! Three seconds, and Haidao Yigong’s defeat is sealed!
At this moment, Igarashi’s face was iron blue, and his clenched fists trembled uncontrollably! As a professional player, to be beaten by an amateur without even the strength or opportunity to fight back—how could he not be furious? Although he wanted to curse in frustration, it wasn’t a crime not to fight! Even South Korea’s world champion had no chance to fight, Da Fei’s strength had already surpassed understanding! Perhaps, the only solution was to report Da Fei?
But, the shock in the Japan Region had not yet subsided, when suddenly, a row of system alerts exploded on the large screen behind General Sword Saint following Haidao Yigong!
——System Prompt: You have been infected by Japan Region player "Haidao Yigong" with "Super Black Death Plague"...
——System Prompt: You have been infected by Japan Region player "Haidao Yigong" with "Insect Swarm Plague"...
——System Prompt: You have been infected by Japan Region player "Haidao Yigong" with "Corpse Poison Plague"...
"Nani!!!" At this moment, everyone in the command center was shocked and suddenly stood up!
Captain Tsukamoto made a quick decision and shouted: "Mr. Yamazaki, pull back, stay away from Mr. Tsujiyama!"
But it was too late! Their troops were too close together, and the screen of the player Gunno Yosai also suddenly exploded!
The consecutive blows left the entire command center dumbfounded, instantly falling into dead silence!
What to do? Retreat? Where to retreat to? Since they were bound to die on the way anyway, rather than dying shamefully and meaninglessly on the run, it’s better to die fighting on the front lines! This time, with no more hesitations, Captain Tsukamoto shouted loudly: "Charge! Even if only one soldier remains, fight to the death!"
Igarashi also raised his arm and shouted: "For the glory of our Great Japan Region, charge!"
The entire command center shouted in unison: "For the glory of our Great Japan Region, charge!"
——System Prompt: Regrettably! You have been defeated by China Region player Da Fei, you have lost your eligibility to compete! You have earned 2 competition points.
The sound of failure resonated, and the screen of Haidao Yigong turned black. But no matter, General Sword Saint’s troops regained sight and continued to courageously charge at Da Fei. Indeed, a successive charge! For the Hell Race Level 1 soldiers with their proud Drain Mana Divine Skill and Demon Child with merely 5 points of life from strategic troops, they genuinely couldn’t last two or three seconds in the face of the plague, falling continuously while charging!
Finally, the fog dissipated, and there he was, Da Fei!
Da Fei was then seen charging in front of the BOSS, stabbing relentlessly with a lightning-flash spear, while the giant body of the BOSS twitched uncontrollably amidst the flowing currents all over him, dizzily, without any strength to fight back!
Wasn’t this spear the controversial Divine Artifact Spear discussed on today’s China Region forum? Wasn’t Da Fei tricked in today’s trade involving this spear? Why was he still able to use it?
Igarashi screamed hoarsely: "It’s a BUG! It must be a BUG! Record the video! We’ll report him!"
...
Da Fei, having effortlessly defeated Haidao Yigong who didn’t even drop a hair, disdained dealing with the breathless Japanese dummies behind, and redirected all his troop’s firepower to slaughter the BOSS once again!
The boss’s blood had already dyed half of the pool red; it was definitely going to die!
At this moment, Da Fei’s excitement was indescribable! Not only because he took down an extremely tough BOSS, but because he did so in front of an audience, a thrilling and proud sensation, something truly unattainable during solo play! Not to mention, the audience was the enemy! Right, isn’t this the excitement of snatching a BOSS in front of numerous people back when he played games? No wonder it felt so exhilarating! But back then, it was about curing internet addiction, now it’s about winning glory for the country, a step up in level, oh he was so proud! Wahahaha!
When another round of arrows roared down, Baron Nash finally came out of his stunned silence, bursting forth a long scream before explosively dying, his massive body crashing into the water and splashing a wave of blood across the hall!
At this moment, the Japan Region Command Center fell deadly silent once again!
At this moment, Da Fei’s eyes widened with unmatched excitement as he stared at the system bar!
