The Boss Behind The Game

Qi Ming was no longer afraid of Ao Jian as he had also received an inheritance. He slammed the wand in his hand on the ground again and the emerged ghosts swiftly twined around Ao Jian.

Noticing the attack of the ghosts, Ao Jian waved his red sword to the front. The sword reflected a flash of sun rays and the ghosts were slayed. Then, his figure flashed and he dashed toward Qi Ming.

“Bang!”

Qi Ming remained calm in facing Ao Jian’s attack. His right fist was abruptly thrown toward his opponent, colliding with Ao Jian’s sword.

With the blessings of the double attributes, Qi Ming’s punch overwhelmed Ao Jian’s attack in terms of strength, pushing him back. He then slammed his wand onto the ground again. As the ghosts appeared, he immediately sucked them into his mouth and dark red lines appeared on his body. His physique was once again strengthened.

This time, even Ao Jian could realize that Qi Ming was no longer just a vulnerable mage, but an opponent who was worthy for him to go all out.

……

As Ao Jian and Qi Ming were battling, Liu Chai’s figure disappeared and he was once again charging toward the fortress flag.

In order to cover Liu Chai up, the remaining assassins of the guild activated Shadow Step and followed closely behind him. All the way, they were protecting him against many murderous intentions.

The Demolition Guild’s strategy was undoubtedly successful. By abandoning all their combat power and keeping only the attacking team, they once again swept past the tangled warfare and charged toward the fortress flag for the last time.

“Liu Chai, you will not get to conquer the City of Beiqi!”

Suddenly, a burning flame appeared at the central region and Gu Yu’s figure appeared in front of the fortress flag.

A horn slowly emerged from Gu Yu’s forehead and his body grew rapidly at a speed which was visible to the naked eyes. In a blink of an eye, he turned into a three-meter tall red giant.

Gu Yu was no longer holding back since this was already the last stage. He exhibited the Evil Body directly and his strength was greatly enhanced by relying on his inherited ability.

“Defeat him!” Liu Chai bellowed and the rubies on his body were shining brightly. He used up all of his energy and smashed toward Gu Yu who was standing right in front of the fortress flag.

He knew that he would be the winner tonight as long as he defeated Gu Yu!

“Roar!” Gu Yu was growling, too. He swung his fist, smashing it at Liu Chai’s incoming fist.

Both the silhouette stepped backward at the same time. With the Evil Body’s increased strength, Gu Yu’s power was obviously far superior than Liu Chai’s. His punch was so powerful that Liu Chai was forced a few meters backward.

That moment, blood mist suddenly rose in the surrounding area. The blood on the ground floated in the air and rapidly flooded into Gu Yu’s body.

Gu Yu slowly straightened his body and walked to the front of the fortress flag again. He let out an evil laugh, “Liu Chai, you won’t be able to go through me!”

“I can!” Liu Chai stabilized his body and launched another attack as he bawled.

In order to assist their boss to capture the flag, the remaining assassin players followed closely behind him and launched the last attack.

“I said, you can’t!” following Gu Yu’s growl, a blood-colored flame centering him suddenly rose and madly dissipated to the surrounding area.

Bloody words appeared above Liu Chai and the others’ heads.

The assassin players who were originally left with little health all fell one by one, even before they got near to Gu Yu.

“Bang!”

The two fists met each other again and Liu Chai was blasted off his feet, ending up with less than half of his original health points.

“Hold on everyone! There’s just twenty-five minutes left. I will handle Liu Chai!” Gu Yu sent out his last command in the live chat channel.

There was not much time left. The players were fighting each other outside the fortress and hence defending and restraining each other had become relatively easier. The only person who had broken through the tangled warfare was Liu Chai. He had a predisposition that he was going to succeed!

Liu Chai who was getting up again stared at Gu Yu with a hint of nostalgia in his eyes.

He did not know how long it had been since he last encountered such an exciting opponent.

With regards to the confident Gu Yu, he suddenly laughed.

“Gu Yu, I admit that you are really strong. But you still can’t beat me by yourself.”

“Oh?” Gu Yu was a little surprised.

“Have you heard of Thunder?” Liu Chai shook his numb right hand and approached Gu Yu step by step.

“Thunder? Never heard of it before!” Gu Yu smiled indifferently. He then raised his leg and stamped toward the front, charging abruptly toward Liu Chai.

But to Gu Yu’s surprise, Liu Chai did not confront him. He turned his body to the side and dodged his heavy blow.

“Flaw, lower left abdomen!”

Following Liu Chai’s yell, the ruby on his body dazzled. An uppercut struck Gu Yu’s abdomen ferociously.

This punch caught Gu Yu off-guard. He immediately staggered a few steps back.

“Hmph!” Gu Yu snorted before approaching Liu Chai again as he thought that it was just a mistake.

“Flaw, the defense on your right is weak!”

Liu Chai jumped to the left with his nimble movements and shoved his fist right into Gu Yu’s face, slamming him to the ground.

Gu Yu who could not believe what had happened, rolled over and stood up. The muscles of his body contracted and with a growl he launched another attack.

To his surprise, Liu Chai could always predict his punch and even struck back at the critical time.

Seeing Liu Chai pacing back and forth along with his fierce boxing skills, Gu Yu suddenly thought of a person.

“Are you saying that you’re Thunder!”

Liu Chai nodded and said, “You’re the first to know this secret in this game!”

“The Thunder King who once ruled during the wrestling era?” upon hearing Liu Chai’s admission, huge waves started rolling in Gu Yu’s heart.

“What else do you have? Just bring it on. You’re not my rival when it comes to one-on-one combat!” having said that, Liu Chai raised his fists and got into a fighting stance.

Gu Yu did not rebut. Instead, he nodded his head solemnly and a ball of flame was set in his eyes. He then turned his head and stared at Liu Chai.

Gu Yu’s Evil Eye Stare was his ultimate skill. It was also his strongest ability.

Thunder was caught off-guard immediately and got affected by the ability. For a moment, he was still in shock. Thus, Gu Yu rapidly went near him and ferociously punched Liu Chai in his face, lifting him up high into the air.

……

The situation on the battlefield was undergoing a rapid change and there were only fifteen minutes left. The audience members were experiencing significant ups and downs in their hearts at this final stage.

When they thought that Gu Yu was about to win, Liu Chai demonstrated his strong wrestling ability and suppressed Gu Yu. However at the very last moment, Liu Chai was suddenly restricted and Gu Yu had gained the chance to strike back.

Seeing Liu Chai on the ground with a stunned face after he was punched, everyone who was watching the battle including Lu Wu and Bei Li thought that the Myth Guild was about to win in the game of fortress defense and gain the final victory.

At that moment, Liu Chai laid on the ground and his mind was in utter confusion. Various kinds of negative emotions emerged and memories that made him angry, sad, and desperate appeared before his eyes.

His body was trembling and gradually, he clenched his fist hard.
