Chapter 193: Killer Bee Valley—Temptation
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Demonic Bee Valley, nad after the gregarious bee-variant monsters which inhabited it was also known as the Killer Bee Valley.
In the valley, there were multiple variants of killer bees; ranging from Tier 1, there were the Bumblebees, Poison Powder Bees, Poison Stinger Bees; from Tier 2, there were Killer Bees, Iron-head Bees, Light-winged Bees; till Tier 3, there were the Fla Bees, Twin-headed Bee, Death Venom Bee...
Because of its high Movent Speed and diverse deadly attacks, the various demonic bees in the valley were collectively nad as killer bees by the players.
However as far as Qin Ruo was concerned, even the Level 35 Death Venom Bees still did not pose any significant threat toward him. After changing his equipnt, his Physical and Magic Defense had increased so significantly that he could not be hard by any common Tier 3 monster. Furthermore, he was equipped with five Gold-tier equipnt and three Violet-tier Equipnt.
As a demonic bee the size as large as three basketballs buzzed by, a snow eagle swooped down majestically from above and grabbed its soft abdon with its talons.
*Pop!*
As its razor-sharp talons pierced through the Level 27 Iron-head Bee’s large hips causing its green bodily fluids to scatter around, the Iron-head Bee was unable to launch a counterattack as the speed and penetration force of the snow eagle’s assault caused it to fall backward. By the ti the mana supporting the snow eagle’s materialization finished, the bee had been driven thirty ters away from Qin Ruo.
This was the hidden attack effect developed by Qin Ruo from the Interdiate skill ‘Snow Eagle Dive’. As long as the angle and pathway of the attack were precise, it could deal knockback of a certain degree toward the target.
The Magic Attack from Snow Eagle Dive which reached 164~165 points did not disappoint Qin Ruo. Not only did it successfully drive the Iron-head Bee away, but it also depleted almost 700 of its HP, which almost instant-killed the bee.
As the weakened Iron-head Bee had no intentions of fighting till its last breath, it turned and fled. Unfortunately, a tily Frost Bullet was cast by Xiaoxiao standing next to Qin Ruo.
A Tier 4 spell coupled with a Tier 2 spell, was able to easily instant-kill a Level 27 Iron-head Bee.
Although this was not sothing which needed attention, Xiaoxiao was greatly excited as she exclaid, “Qin Ruo, your casting speed seems to have increased.” Xiaoxiao still rembered during their ti at the Hog Pen—although Qin Ruo had spent a lot of effort on this spell which could not be modified, the casting ti needed was still fixed at more than 4 seconds.
However today, the charging speed of the Snow Eagle Dive was significantly faster.
Qin Ruo knew that this was the result of spending hours of polishing the skill in the Snow Domain to raise Skill Mastery to Interdiate level and the new equipnt he was currently using.
Currently, his water elent casting speed had increased by 35%. In other words, if the initial cast ti was 4 seconds, it could be reduced by one-third, to less than 3 seconds.
This was almost equivalent to the cast ti of a regular Tier 3 Water Elentalism spell, or even shorter compared to other Tier 3 spells! As Xiaoxiao had been working on Elentalism for two consecutive days and the reassembling of Tier 2 and Tier 3 spells, she was extra attentive toward the cast ti of water elent spells. Once she noticed that Qin Ruo was able to cast Snow Eagle Dive in such a short ti, it was needless to say that she was thrilled and instantly began questioning Qin Ruo how he accomplished it.
Qin Ruo chuckled but did not give her an imdiate reply. Instead, he quietly paced forward into the valley with his Aquabarrier, till an aggroed Iron-head Bee charged toward him and instantaneously he stood still to chant. “Condense! Transfigure! Freeze!”
In that split second, Xiaoxiao was able to instantly sense the water elents in the air moving rapidly, instantaneously gathered before him as he uttered “Condense”, then began to transfigure, before splitting into two, each forming a razor-sharp weapon—Darkfrost Sting.
Three simple commands uttered without the slightest pause. As the last command Freeze was said, the two water elental weapons were instantly frozen and began to form the actual Darkfrost Sting which emanated an icy mist around it.
Once Xiaoxiao laid her eyes on it, she was awestruck, witnessing the Iron-head Bee being instant-killed by the pincer movent of the two Darkfrost Sting. Without further delay, she began questioning Qin Ruo about the execution of the technique.
At the sa ti, this scene was noticed by another group of player in the valley and they were astounded.
Twin Darkfrost Sting!
“His Tier 4 Water Elentalism is impressive.”
“... It’s him?”
Within Killer Bee Valley, the thoughts from two people were voiced.
Soon after, the refine and handsoly dressed Hom Fatale looked at Steel Dude who is standing upon the floor filled with the corpses of Killer Bees, and asked him lightly, “Do you know who this guy is?”
“No, I don’t.”
Steel Dude took a glance at Qin Ruo first, then he noticed that Bewitching Priestess was gazing at that troublemaker infatuatedly, which displeased him greatly, inciting him to give a short and cold reply.
The conversation of the two guys made Scarlet Bauhinia who was standing behind them feel speechless.
‘Why is Steel Dude such a sentintal guy? Isn’t it better to be just like Hom Fatale who rather stays single than being stuck in a relationship? Is it worth it to have a fight between friends over a boy-crazy girl?’
Shaking his head slightly, Scarlet Bauhinia gave a closer look at the couple walking toward them from the valley and sighed.
‘Who would have thought while scouting a Tier 3 Aquamancer babe with decent skills and experience, that I would be eting the guy that was being ntioned repeatedly not long ago?’
Tier 4 Aquamancer, Qin Ruo. The newcor from Slayer’s Heart and Violet Orchid’s party. It turns out that the Tier 3 Aquamancer babe Xiaoxiao was his girlfriend.
This was getting interesting.
“Fatale, do you now believe that there is another player who is as talented as you in this ga?”
“I had always believed that, I’ve just never had the chance to et one in person.” Even when facing his commander, Hom Fatale just retorted in a calm and relaxed tone just like a normal mber facing his commander’s reproach. Being an equal Tier 5 champion, it was Hom Fatale’s prerogative to retort his League Master.
“League Master, do you know him?”
Hom Fatale did not continue pestering Steel Dude, and instead he was able to sense the assured tone from Scarlet Bauhinia’s voice, indicating that he knew sothing.
“Slayer’s Heart newly made friend,” Scarlet Bauhinia replied curtly.
Once his answer was given, Steel Dude responded vexingly,”I don’t know whether if he is really Slayer’s Heart friend, but I do know that this guy Qin Ruo has been getting a lot of attention lately. Rumor has it that his background is common, but he was able to take down a regular mber from Netherspirit’s Claw twice when still Tier 3. Later he single-handedly fought against a whole group of people at Savis Town, pretty gutsy, just my cup of tea. Hey boss, take him in.”
Hom Fatale nodded and voiced his opinion toward Scarlet Bauhinia. ” He’s right, that move he just made is not sothing a normal player can counter, I personally think he’s got potential.”
As one of the top Elentalists in the ga, although it was a brief mont of Elentalism shown, he was able to perceive Qin Ruo’s skill. His understanding and experience toward Elentalism coupled with his future potential—even if he could not reach his current level, he should have no problem taking the role of a Field Commander in their league.
Not recruiting such a skilled player that had not been scouted by other Clans into their own League would be a loss.
Scarlet Bauhinia shook his head in regret.
“Let’s leave this matter to Slayer’s Heart at the mont. However, we could consider recruiting his girlfriend first.”
Scarlet Bauhinia did not want to raise any hostility from Slayer’s Heart, at the sa ti he thought of paving the way for Qin Ruo joining their Bauhinia Clan in the future by recruiting Qin Ruo’s girlfriend into their League.
“What’s the difference?”
Hom Fatale and Steel Dude both looked at Scarlet Bauhinia in astonishnt as this was not their commander’s usual way of doing things. Usually once he ets a player with such potential he would have rushed to invite them personally!
“It’s nothing...”
Scarlet Bauhinia shook his head in dismay, but it was obvious to the others that he was trying to avoid the question.
After Qin Ruo followed Xiaoxiao into Killer Bee Valley, their attention was instantly drawn toward the silhouette of five people and one beast in the valley.
A gigantic tiger as large as the size of two Galewind Wolves was rushing through the Killer Bees’ poison powder and poison stings, constantly firing icy breaths and freezing the multiple Killer Bees around the tanker. Next, the ice shards swirled wildly like a tornado and launched toward the Killer Bees.
Raging Frost Roar!
‘Damn, a monster at only level 35 is able to cast a Tier 4 AoE spell.
‘It’s a Boss-level Pet!’
Taking a quick glance, Qin Ruo’s attention was drawn toward the Shadowmancer among them. Several of his equipnt had a luster that Qin Ruo could not discern, mysterious and dazzling. Furthermore, there were two guys fully equipped with Dark Gold equipnt. One of them had purple lightning surrounding his body whenever he attacked, which was obviously a Electromancer; the other guy must be a Titanwraith Berserker, with his both large hands, the Killer Bees were squashed easily like tofu. Standing beside the tanker surrounded by a swarm of Killer Bees was a pretty babe which looked a little cute and clumsy.
At the sa ti, Qin Ruo was able to confirm Xiaoxiao’s story that these people were definitely from Bauhinia League from the Bauhinia insignia on their chest. Furthermore, the Shadowmancer in the lead equipped with Legendary equipnt should be Scarlet Bauhinia himself!
‘But why do they want to recruit Xiaoxiao?’
