The players continued to complete their missions in a hurry. Most players would pay attention to these leaderboards, but when they looked at them, they were envious, jealous, and bitter.
The players did not care much about the players on the leaderboards, regardless of their character or skills. They only knew that the players on the leaderboards would receive better Christmas gifts than them. This result was what everyone cared about the most.
After that, the players who were stronger or luckier would receive better Christmas gifts. Hence, they would become stronger and luckier. Thinking about it made people feel helpless.
The players on the leaderboards counted their rankings and worked even harder to maintain it. In this process, strength would gradually become a more reliable guarantee.
Players who relied on luck to find more Christmas thieves and kill more players on the leaderboards would not be able to maintain their luck forever. In such a long-term event, the only thing that could stabilize the leaderboards was the players' true strength.
Being able to hunt down Christmas thieves in the City of Sin was undoubtedly a type of strength. Moreover, it was a very strong type in the new server. Tang Rou continued to work hard and her ranking on the leaderboards finally started to increase.
Some players who relied on luck to find Christmas thieves finally started to fall behind when their luck ran out. They were surpassed by players like Tang Rou who relied on strength to kill in the City of Sin and had a stable harvest.
774 …
767 …
751 …
749 …
The rankings were based on points, and points were not a number. The Christmas thieves that Tang Rou killed were of different levels. Hence, every time she killed one, her ranking would increase by a few or even more. Just like that, she continued to advance. Tang Rou's fighting spirit was high. Her left hand held the keyboard and her right hand held the mouse. She stared at the screen and refused to look away for even a second. During this time, Chen Guo spoke to her twice, but Tang Rou did not hear her at all. Her world was completely focused on the leaderboards in the game.
Things like the leaderboards sometimes had an inexplicable attraction.
Another one!
Tang Rou was getting more and more used to the drizzling weather in the City of Sin. She was also getting more and more used to identifying targets in this kind of blurry vision. In the distance, there was a blurry figure in the rain. Tang Rou was certain that it was a Christmas thief and immediately ordered Han Yanrou to rush forward.
At the same time, on the other side of the street, a figure flashed out and rushed toward the Christmas thief. As he ran, he dragged a lightsaber by his side. In the drizzling rain, the lightsaber was very easy to recognize.
Tang Rou saw him at once. How could she not know his intentions? After wandering around the City of Sin for so long, she had encountered other players. But this was the first time that both of them had their eyes on the same target.
Of course, Tang Rou wouldn't back down. She chose the shortest and most direct route towards the Christmas thief. Originally, she needed to avoid one of the Sin City residents, but right now, she couldn't care less.
Sin City's residents naturally wouldn't be polite with Tang Rou at this time. As soon as Soft Mist passed by his territory, this resident immediately shot an ominous glare at her and pulled out a knife to pounce on her.
The opposing Blade Master also stared at the Battle Mage. At this time of the year, most of the players in the City of Sin were veterans of Glory. In terms of experience, he was better than Tang Rou. From the distance between the two characters and the Christmas thief, the Blade Master had already determined that he was one step ahead of the other. He already felt that he had a chance of winning. When he saw that the Battle Mage was being disturbed by the monsters in the leveling area, he was even happier. He felt that this Christmas thief wouldn't be able to escape from his grasp.
The resident rushed over, but Tang Rou didn't panic at all. She flicked her right wrist and Han Yanrou threw a Sky Strike. The approaching resident was just in time to be knocked into the air. Han Yanrou stepped to the side and with a "boom", a Falling Flower Palm flew out. The palm pushed out a layer of qi that scattered the falling rain, creating a ripple in the rain. It looked even more tyrannical.
"Not good!" When the Blade Master saw the direction of the palm, he panicked. He didn't expect that the Battle Mage would be able to benefit from this misfortune. Originally, if the two were in a race, the Battle Mage would be slower. But now, with a Falling Flower Palm, the resident was sent flying. Just as the Blade Master expected, the resident crashed into the Christmas thief.
Of course, this kind of attack didn't matter. The Christmas thief immediately reacted and rushed towards Han Yanrou. The Blade Master could only watch and helplessly curse, "F * ck".
At this moment, the two were close together. Tang Rou also heard the Blade Master's curse, but she didn't care too much. In the game, this kind of curse was more or less used as a way to vent one's emotions. If you beat someone and didn't allow them to be depressed, then that would be wrong.
Tang Rou ignored the Blade Master and controlled Han Yanrou to close in. At this moment, the Christmas thief and the resident also rushed towards her.
Tang Rou wasn't the slightest bit afraid in a one versus two situation. After being in the City of Sin for so long, she had killed quite a few Christmas thieves and residents. She had a good understanding of their strength. Against two, Tang Rou didn't think that it would be difficult. This was why she dared to not avoid the resident for the sake of stealing the Christmas thief. She even used the resident to snatch the Christmas thief first.
The Blade Master was about to leave. But at this moment, the two were one step closer. He finally recognized the ID that he couldn't see clearly due to the rain and fog.
Han Yanrou.
Seeing this ID, the Blade Master was about to leave, but he suddenly stopped in his tracks.
Holding his sword, the Blade Master stood to the side and silently watched Han Yanrou fight monsters for a while.
Level 31.
The Blade Master searched for the ID and confirmed Han Yanrou's level. This was more than six levels lower than the City of Sin. It seemed like she still had the strength to fight one versus two. The Blade Master couldn't help but acknowledge Han Yanrou's strength. No wonder she was a member of Lord Grim's dungeon team. If she didn't have some strength, how could she set such a tyrannical record?
The swordsman secretly pondered for a moment, then left without batting an eyelid.
At first, Tang Rou saw that person staring at her while she fought monsters, so she was on her guard. One didn't need to be an expert in online games to know about killing and stealing monsters.
But after seeing the Blade Master stare for a while and then leave, Tang Rou relaxed. Thinking about it, the Blade Master probably wanted to see if she could deal with a Christmas thief and a monster. If she was killed by these two monsters, then he could just pick up her purse. In the end, after seeing that there was no possibility of such a thing happening, he naturally left. This kind of thinking wasn't very noble, but at least it was better than directly killing someone.
Tang Rou had an easy time dealing with the two monsters. At this moment, she even had the time to think about it. After tidying up her thoughts, Tang Rou only paid attention to her left and right. She didn't want to accidentally attract more residents. But after looking around, the nearest resident's aggro range was still a distance away. There was enough space for her to casually kill these two monsters.
She immediately focused on controlling Han Yanrou to fight monsters. But she didn't expect that the Blade Master, after circling around, would come running back. Behind him, there were more than ten residents of the City of Sin of varying heights following behind him.
In the rain, the sound of their footsteps was very light. But now that the dozen or so people were running over, the "pa pa" sound of their footsteps on the water couldn't be suppressed. Tang Rou gradually heard this sound. Seeing that there wasn't anything strange in front of her, she immediately turned her head and saw a person leading a group of residents over.
Tang Rou couldn't help but laugh. What a joke. They had encountered the same predicament as her! Although Tang Rou sympathized with them, she didn't have the strength to help. If she was a Launcher, she could learn from Su Mucheng and help them. But as a Battle Mage, even she was afraid of this.
In the blink of an eye, that person had already run over. Tang Rou inadvertently glanced over and was suddenly startled.
Wind Following Sword!
Wasn't this the ID of the Blade Master she had just seen? He had only run around for a short while, and he had suddenly attracted so many monsters? This wasn't normal, no?
Even with Tang Rou's shallow gaming experience, she realized that something wasn't right. Just when she was on guard, Wind Following Sword wasn't polite at all. He swung his sword towards Han Yanrou.
The moves executed by the lightsaber were still shining brightly in the dusky rain and fog.
With a flash of sword light, the wind from the sword brought up the rain and flew towards Soft Mist.
It was beautiful, but it wasn't easy to deal with.
Tang Rou immediately had Han Yanrou dodge to the side. The Christmas thief and the resident did not know what to do and continued to attack. For a moment, three attacks came at her, but Tang Rou was still able to deal with them calmly.
The sword light once again scattered. After Wind Following Sword used a Sword Draw, he suddenly used a Triple Slash to close the distance. Tang Rou sneered. She dodged to the side and followed up with a Sky Strike.
Wind Following Sword hastily tried to dodge, but he was half a beat too slow and was hit by the Sky Strike. He wasn't sent flying, but he was still sent flying. Tang Rou wasn't polite at all. She followed up with a Falling Flower Palm.
Palm hit!
Wind Following Sword wasn't able to dodge the attack and took the full brunt of the Falling Flower Palm. His body flew backwards in the air. Tang Rou suddenly cried out.
"Ha ha ha ha, beautiful girl, you really like to play this hand!"
Wind Following Sword, who had been sent flying, didn't look like a loser at all. He was laughing happily.
His body flew out and crashed into a group of Sin City residents who were chasing after him. At this moment, these residents were chasing after each other. Wind Following Sword had actually spent a great deal of effort to gather monsters.
His crash was much more thorough than Su Mucheng's Cleansing Mist's Laser Rifle. He knocked down a dozen players.
And this hatred was all on Han Yanrou's head.
Tang Rou finally paid the price for her lack of experience after encountering a treacherous opponent in a solo event.
