Chapter 708 - 214: Infiltrating the Enemy Lair, Now a Big Shot
Blood splattered everywhere, but the close combat player staggered back two steps without being killed.
He turned around and immediately released the "Blood Soul Traction," chaining the assassin’s ankle, pulling him close for a slash with the Power Barbarian Axe, which carried the "Heavy Hammer" effect.
However, before the strike could hit, another chain came from the side, pulling the figure’s waist and stomach away, narrowly saving him from the Power Barbarian Axe’s slash.
At this moment, the low-level Source Crystal within the aura was rapidly being formed.
The other Bliss Players also entered the scene at this time.
Led by Yang Xiu, they had a clear target, quickly stealthing to the front of the halo.
The player who had lifted the curse immediately reached forward with his right hand, hoping to grasp the soon-to-be-formed low-level Source Crystal and toss it into the Space Bag.
But Yang Xiu was faster, kicking towards the player’s wrist within the halo, forcing him to loosen his grip on the freshly grasped low-level Source Crystal.
The low-level Source Crystal flipped through the air.
Another Bliss Assassin predicted the trajectory of the Crystal’s fall, and, like a leopard, leaped forward swiftly, catching the Crystal firmly before swiftly retreating.
The other Bliss Assassins also approached the player who caught the Crystal, forming a tight defense line to block the players’ counterattacks.
The Bliss Assassin Group’s movement was graceful, focusing primarily on evasion during combat before retaliating, a style quite different from the players’.
In the initial skirmish, the player team was completely suppressed, forced to retreat in the face of the Bliss Assassins’ offensive.
At this time, a Bliss Assassin circled behind a support player, striking precisely towards the neck with a dagger.
Just then, a Light Shield suddenly appeared behind the support player.
But, astonishingly, the assassin seemed to anticipate the move, rolling and flipping forward in the next second after the Light Shield was activated.
After the Rolling and Flashing, the assassin, knocked out of the Gap Space, was already in front of the support player.
The black dagger stabbed into the support player’s neck with no hindrance.
However, the support player reacted quickly, decisively activating Life Connection to transfer the damage.
Wow!
The attacking player coughed blood, with a chain winding around his waist and stomach, dragged back by teammates.
Soon after, another assassin wearing a ghost face mask appeared beside the support player, with a short sword dancing like a dragon, flashing its shadow and draining the last sliver of health from the battered support player.
Accompanied by the support player’s transformation into black mist and disappearance, a whistling sound rang out, and the Bliss Assassin Group quickly retreated.
The damage-bearing stream player in the team wanted to pursue, but again heard the sharp sound of Broken Wind, abruptly raising the Rock Shield towards the direction of the sound, intercepting a Bone Spur Bullet.
Raising his head again, the shadow had already gone far.
Within less than a minute of engagement, the Bliss Assassin Group completed the task of seizing the Crystal.
They quickly retreated in different directions.
Their figures leaped between the tall buildings on both sides of the street and soon disappeared without a trace, leaving the player team standing in shock.
They were not surprised by the Bliss Players’ strength nor the seamless combat coordination.
Instead, it was the screenshot of decomposition shared by a player named Yang Mei Tuxi in the chat channel.
[Yang Mei Tuxi (player)]
Panel Information: Target player’s information display blocked (head name display, attribute panel display), marked only by Player Faction.
Initially thinking they had encountered counterfeit players was already shocking enough.
Unexpectedly, the group of counterfeit players surprisingly included an authentic player from their own faction.
Even more absurd, the authentic player mixed in with the counterfeit team seemed to be the leader of this counterfeit player squad.
"Damn it, we’ve been duped by one of our own?"
"Bastard, I remember him, don’t let me encounter him next time."
Just as the player team was furious, a voice suddenly sounded in the regional chat channel:
"Sorry, brothers. After finally clearing the stage and arriving in Monster World under the guise of a Bliss Player, my life is now worth 200,000 sacrificial power and still increasing. I can only carry out tasks as requested by the idiotic Main God. Sorry, I’ll send an apology red envelope when I return to the village."
Hearing the apology in the regional channel, the player team initially paused before angrily rebuking:
"You beast, you’ve earned 200,000 sacrificial power just like that, even building your own squad in Death Space. Are you rebelling? No more valuation increases, village gold bar release, and return quickly."
"Two Crystals, remember you owe us 10,000 sacrificial power, plus mental distress compensation of 15,000. I’ve recorded it for you."
"I’m envious to death. Even though Death Space qualifications are issued at 500 daily, it’s like clocking in every day, and it’s impossible to grab. You’re amazing, clearing into Monster World... Also, your teammates are so formidable."
...
Listening to the voices in the regional voice channel, Yang Xiu led the team back to the city’s tallest building, meeting with Black Snake.
Standing at the top of the building, looking at the tiny player team at the end of his sight, Yang Xiu’s eyes rippled.
As one of the authentic players, he never expected to reach this day in the Death Space Dungeon.
The team he formed consisted of eight members.
All codenamed after Life Souls in the Player Corps, shortened to one word for naming.
His codename was Eagle Head, the only Berserker in the team: Stone Statue.
The only sniper codename: Black Snake.
All others were assassin-type players, each with their own Life Soul codename.
As a veteran player, he originally belonged to the Divine Hall Guild, as a member of the Warband assassin group.
A little over half a month ago, dungeon qualification for Death Space was issued at dawn.
