From A Stronghold NPC To The Final BOSS

Chapter 43: Awkward Atmosphere

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

At Mount Mingai, both sides were still engaged in battle.

Most of the Mountain Bandits of Mount Mingai were at Martial Entry-Level One, and only the Leaders were at Martial Entry-Level Three.

As for the team that Liu Qinghong and Fu Moyan brought along, every player in their teams was at least at Martial Entry-Level Three.

After the two teams joined hands, the number of players was not much fewer than the number of Mountain Bandits.

A sword was pulled out, and fresh blood spewed everywhere.

A Mountain Bandit collapsed onto the ground.

Zhang Quan bent down to search the Mountain Bandit and found a wooden token on him.

This was the Mountain Bandit’s identity token.

This was the only way to prove that one had completed the mission.

Qin Shujian saw this and couldn’t help but shake his head silently.

Compared to the players, the Mountain Bandits of Mount Mingai were lousy.

Only Niu Feng was pretty highly skilled and could fend off the two best players in this team.

And this was also why he didn’t get the additional affiliation after he surrendered to Liangshan Stronghold.

Otherwise, with the addition of an affiliation, Niu Feng would definitely rise in level.

Those two players should have lost miserably to him a long time ago.

But that was also the reason why things turned out like this.

That was why even though Niu Feng definitely had the upper hand, it wasn’t that easy for him to kill the two players in front of him.

As for the other Mountain Bandits, Qin Shujian sighed and took one step out.

BAM!

The ground beneath his feet cracked as a clear footprint was deeply etched into the hard mountainous rock. The cracks started from the footprint and continued to extend in all directions.

The next moment, Qin Shujian’s gaze suddenly changed. The calm aura he had earlier suddenly exploded as his body broke through the layers and layers of air, causing a series of blasts that sounded like thunder.

BOOM!

Every player that was covered with this aura had a dramatic change in their expressions.

Zhang Quan immediately felt death overwhelm his heart, and the next thing he knew, a terrifying gust of wind hit him from the side.

After that, he immediately fell into darkness.

“What?!” Chen Wu couldn’t help but feel fear and despair at this sight.

He didn’t even see how Qin Shujian did it, but Zhang Quan had turned into a bright white light and just disappeared after that.

He was dead!

A player at Martial Entry-Level Three had just died without even being able to defend himself.

This sudden turn of events didn’t just shock the other players. Even Liu Qinghong and Fu Moyan were terribly shocked.

They guessed earlier that the unmoving Qin Shujian, who just stood where he was, could be the truly biggest Boss of Mount Mingai.

But he didn’t do anything.

The two of them were both worried, but they both had the same idea of killing this Boss in front of them when this Boss slipped up, then they would join forces to deal with the last Boss.

But, Niu Feng was simply too powerful, and he was more potent than Liu Qinghong and Fu Moyan had expected.

Qin Shujian’s sudden attack frightened them even more.

One move killed Zhang Quan in seconds.

This Boss moved so quickly, and his attack was so powerful. Nobody had ever heard of anything like this before.

It just took one moment.

Liu Qinghong and Fu Moyan exchanged glances.

After that, Liu Qinghong immediately said, “I’ll block that Boss; you block this one. After the rest finish off the remaining Mountain Thieves, we’ll fight him together.”

“Ok!” Fu Moyan replied with a nod.

Once that exchange was over, the two of them moved away at the same time while shouting, “Retreat now!”

All the other players were stunned when they heard this.

Liu Qinghong and Fu Moyan looked at each other again, and the air between them became silent and awkward.

They both thought of making the other party stall for time while they left with their own team.

But what never crossed their mind was that the other party was thinking of the same thing.

But before Liu Qinghong and Fu Moyan could say anything, Niu Feng’s vicious attack had come for them.

In the end, the two of them had no choice but to turn and fend off Niu Feng’s attacks.

On the other side, Qin Shujian was moving around like he was walking about in his backyard.

His Five Elements Eight Trigram Move drew a beautiful picture as he attacked, and he didn’t even look like he was going to use his Tiger Head Blade at all. He used his Seven-Flower Leaf Penetrating Palm to go on a huge massacre.

All those Martial Entry-Level Three players, no matter what technique they used to cultivate or how powerful they were.

To Qin Shujian, they just seemed to be slightly more powerful ants.

...

But no matter how mighty an ant was, it was still an ant.

One just needed to exert a little more force, and it could make the other party fall apart.

In just about ten seconds or so, seven or eight players perished.

Qin Shujian was pretty much turning a player into a beam of white light every second or so.

“Hurry up! Everyone, let’s join hands to fight this Boss first! Otherwise, we’re all going to die!”

Chen Wu immediately got away from the attack of the Mountain Bandit fighting him and moved to one side.

When the other players heard him, they snapped out of their initial shock as they gave up the fight with the Mountain Bandits around them and started to gather together, turning their attack stance into a defense one.

They didn’t have a choice.

This Boss was too powerful, and it was too difficult to predict his next move.

When faced with this Boss, none of them got to even counterattack and were immediately sent back to the Respawn Zone.

“Fu Moyan, if this continues, both of us are going to lose everyone. Why don’t we help each other to leave first?” yelled Liu Qinghong as he narrowly avoided the gleaming blade coming for him and sent a palm out.

...

He had noticed what happened with the other players.

In just a short time, so many players had died.

That Boss’s capabilities made Liu Qinghong’s stomach churn in fear.

If this went on, then he would have returned after suffering significant losses and no gains, and the entire team might go down by one stage together.

This loss was too great.

Liu Qinghong couldn’t bear the consequences of such a loss, and he was sure Fu Moyan couldn’t either.

“Ok!” Fu Moyan knew that they were in an emergency situation too. They had underestimated what these two Bosses were capable of, and that’s how they ended up in this terrible predicament.

In an instant, both of them had reached a consensus.

This time, neither of them dared to pull any tricks.

A fierce aura emanated from Fu Moyan’s body as his long metal sword appeared like a beam of cold light. The blade of the sword cut through the air with the faint sound of waves.

After that, Liu Qinghong violently thrust both palms out, and the middle of his palms instantly turned crimson as the wind from his palms howled and turned into a massive wave of heat.

Neither of them held back.

They had both unleashed the best techniques they had.

When faced with such a powerful attack, Niu Feng’s expression turned grim as well. He held his Nine Ring Saber tightly and started to viciously swing it forward as if he was going to chop right through mountains.

BOOM!

The strong winds gushed, and metal shards flew everywhere.

Niu Feng immediately turned to defend himself. Sparks flew everywhere as he swung his Nine Ring Saber.

LiThe shards had also hit Liu Qinghong and Fu MoyanBut they couldn’t be bothered with their wounds and immediately moved away.

After doing that, Fu Moyan used the long metal sword in his hands that was only left with one quarter of its original length and flung it hard towards Qin Shujian.

The other players who had joined hands to fight seemed to have the same idea in mind.

When the broken sword was being flung at Qin Shujian, the other players immediately launched a powerful attack to scatter the Mountain Bandits that tried to surround them and attack. Then they quickly started running after Liu Qinghong and Fu Moyan.

All of this happened in a matter of seconds.

From the time Liu Qinghong and Fu Moyan unleashed their techniques, to flinging the broken sword, to the time all the players ran for it.

The time spent doing all these definitely didn’t exceed three seconds.
