Sin City. As soon as you stepped into the leveling area, even the sky changed color. Dark clouds covered the sky and drizzling rain fell. From time to time, there would be the sound of thunder.
The entire city was covered in a sinister black color. Shrouded in rain and fog, the players couldn't see very far. The rustling sound of the drizzle and muffled thunder from time to time challenged the players' hearing. In Glory, many dangers that came from behind could be discovered through hearing and experience.
As soon as Ye Xiu's Lord Grim stepped onto the street, the sky exploded with thunder. A bright flash of lightning fell from the sky, instantly illuminating the entire street. Ye Xiu suddenly acted. With a turn of his mouse, Lord Grim turned his body and extended his Myriad Manifestations Umbrella to the left.
The umbrella opened, flipped up, and closed.
With a "pu", Dragon's Teeth hit the target on the left.
Under the lightning, a pale and sinister face with rainwater appeared. At this moment, it was holding a cold dagger and stabbing towards Lord Grim. In the end, Lord Grim was the first to hit it with his spear.
This was a resident of Sin City. They were the leveling monsters here. Glory was very detailed. Even the NPC monsters were randomly generated from the character templates in the game. In fact, even the Goblins in the forest didn't look exactly the same if one looked closely. It was just that those non-human monsters all looked the same to humans. But for these humanoid monsters, players could tell the difference in facial features, gender, body size, etc.
However, this was just to make the game world more realistic and lively. It didn't affect a character's battle ability at all.
Dragon's Teeth hit and then a Sky Strike, sending the resident flying into the air. This person's face was fiendish and the attack was sudden. If it was a normal player, they would definitely be at a disadvantage. Sin City's special environment and weather already gave players some trouble. The resident monsters here were even more aggressive and had a large aggro range. Just like the person in front of him, who had been squatting in the gutter by the street. As soon as Lord Grim stepped onto the street, he was immediately alarmed.
But unfortunately, the person he met was Ye Xiu.
Many of Glory's competitive maps were actually derived from the game's environments. Just like Nefas City of Sin, there were also similar maps in the PVP Arena.
However, for ordinary players, it was unlikely that they would try to explore all sorts of maps. But Ye Xiu was different. He was a pro player, so he needed to practice and familiarize himself with every map. Ye Xiu had played the game for so many years. With so many years of professional experience, what kind of environment in Glory was he not familiar with?
City of Sin?
It was the first time new players came here, so the lowered vision and chaotic sound effects might make them feel oppressed. The residents were more likely to be frightened by this sudden attack. But for Ye Xiu, these were all too common. He dealt with these as if they were the most basic maps outside of the beginner village.
After the Sky Strike, the Myriad Manifestations Umbrella in Lord Grim's hands changed forms at will, using all sorts of skills at will. If a mere leveling monster could cause trouble for him, then Ye Xiu wouldn't be worthy of his status.
However, the high level suppression did reduce Lord Grim's damage. Even though there was no suspense, it still took him a bit of time to kill this resident. Unfortunately, all of the residents in City of Sin were five levels higher than Lord Grim, so the experience he gained was like killing a beginner village monster. It couldn't even be considered a consolation prize.
Ye Xiu obviously didn't want to waste time on these inexperienced residents. After killing this person, he carefully observed his surroundings.
There were residents wandering around in the 9 o 'clock, 11 o' clock, and 1 o 'clock directions. The aggro range of these residents had been studied by the players long ago, but normal players had to rely on their mouse to confirm the coordinates to grasp the distance. For an experienced expert like Ye Xiu, he could rely on his own eyes to determine the distance.
These three residents blocked off the street. No matter how you walked forward, you would inevitably enter the aggro range of one of the three residents. However, the three residents weren't very well-behaved. They were all wandering back and forth. Ye Xiu saw it clearly. Lord Grim walked forward.
Charge forward!
After seeing the resident move two units to the left in the 9 o 'clock direction, Ye Xiu immediately seized the opportunity and had Lord Grim rush forward.
Jump back!
The resident at 11 o 'clock suddenly stopped and turned around. Ye Xiu immediately had Lord Grim jump back twice, circling around the edge of the resident's aggro range.
30 degrees to the right!
After confirming the positions of the three residents again, Ye Xiu made his next decision. Lord Grim charged 30 degrees to the right.
As he moved, his character's view constantly changed as he observed the movements of the three residents. If there was a slight reaction, he would immediately make adjustments. Finally, after a few turns, Lord Grim passed through the three residents without alerting them.
The process was a bit complicated, but at least it saved a lot of time compared to killing a resident to open a path.
After passing through the street, Ye Xiu opened up his friends list and greeted Su Mucheng and Tang Rou, "Is everyone here?"
"We're here," the two replied.
"Do your best!" Ye Xiu only said this briefly. There was no need for the three of them to meet up. If they did, they would be fighting each other for the thief. Even though the rules allowed for teaming up, if they teamed up, everyone's points would be greatly reduced. The event had just started, so no one knew if teaming up was more effective or if it was an individual. But from Ye Xiu's experience, teaming up was to simplify the battle. Even though they wouldn't gain as much points, they would gain more points. As a result, if a single player had enough battle strength, it would be more effective than teaming up.
Without a doubt, Ye Xiu had battle strength. Not only him, but Su Mucheng and Tang Rou were also much stronger than normal players. There was no need for them to team up.
After telling the two of them to "do your best," Ye Xiu gave Tang Rou, who had just arrived, a few words of caution. This was to prevent her from failing miserably due to her lack of experience.
"Listen carefully. Even though there's a lot of noise here, the sound of monsters attacking won't be completely covered. You have to get used to hearing what you need to hear in this noise. "Ye Xiu sent the last message to Tang Rou. This message wasn't just for dealing with Sin City. It was something that should be mastered in the game.
"Understood," Tang Rou replied. The two of them were only separated by a computer. However, they had to listen to the sounds in the game, so they didn't communicate outside the game.
However, Chen Guo didn't care about this. She glanced at Tang Rou's screen and was shocked. "What level are you? Why are you in Sin City?"
As he said this, he turned his head to look at Ye Xiu and was once again surprised: "You too!"
Before Ye Xiu could reply! Chen Guo was extremely agitated. She poked Ye Xiu's screen and shouted, "Thief!!!"
"I see it!" Ye Xiu had no choice but to communicate with the people outside the game.
"Hurry up and fight!"
"I don't want to alarm the small monsters!" Ye Xiu said. He had his eyes on the Christmas thief. However, the thief was currently surrounded by two Sin City residents. If he attacked now, the two residents would definitely be alerted. Ye Xiu wanted to wait for the right opportunity.
Chen Guo obviously understood Ye Xiu's intentions. Hence, she didn't care about the game anymore and helped Ye Xiu keep an eye on the thief.
The Christmas thief seemed to feel very safe. He just squatted in the corner and didn't move. The two Sin City residents beside him were swaying back and forth.
"Hey hey hey! Hurry up and attack! "Chen Guo suddenly bumped into Ye Xiu.
"There's still one position to the right!" Ye Xiu said.
"No way?" Chen Guo muttered.
Ye Xiu moved his mouse up. When he clicked on the Christmas thief, the thief's coordinates and position were displayed. When he clicked on the resident on the right, the coordinates and position were displayed again.
These two characters weren't on the horizontal or vertical axis, so it was impossible to tell at a glance. The distance between the two had to be calculated using the Pythagorean theorem.
This was the reason why normal players couldn't grasp the distance. There were so many steps. Moreover, the Pythagorean theorem couldn't be figured out in most situations. If you were in the middle of a battle, who would have the time to calculate this? Even in this situation where they had time, Chen Guo took out her calculator to calculate. When she finished calculating, she realized that there was still one position between them. The resident was no longer at his original position. As for Ye Xiu, he was still calmly waiting for an opportunity.
"If you keep wasting time like this, why don't you go up and kill them all? You have the ability to do so, right? "Chen Guo said.
"Don't be impatient." Ye Xiu wasn't moved. He seemed very confident that he would find an opportunity.
"Let's see how long you'll wait!" Chen Guo said. On the screen, the two residents on the left and right of the Christmas thief stepped forward. At this moment, Lord Grim raised his weapon. With a flash, he fired a shot.
The bullet was naturally very fast. Chen Guo couldn't hear Ye Xiu's voice in the game. She only saw the bullet hit the Christmas thief's head. Blood bloomed. The Christmas thief jumped up and charged at Lord Grim.
At this moment, the two residents on the left and right had already turned around and walked back. However, the attack was over. The shot had exploded outside their aggro range. At this moment, they turned around and saw the Christmas thief charging at Lord Grim. This wasn't something they cared about.
It was just a split second, yet they had grasped the opportunity. The calculation of distance and the consideration of the bullet's flying speed were all things that needed to be understood. Could they do it? Although they knew that Ye Xiu wasn't an ordinary expert, when they saw this scene, anyone would put themselves in his shoes and measure themselves.
Chen Guo did this, but the result was a huge blow to her. As for how Ye Xiu killed the Christmas thief, she didn't want to see it. Because if she directly watched Ye Xiu's battle from the screen, Chen Guo wouldn't understand anything. She already knew this.
