“Damn it! How could it be this bastard?” Ji Siyue sat in front of the computer screen. It took her quite a while before she finally managed to curse out.
This [Starry River in the Woods] was the captain of the team Ji Siyue used to be in. However, he had a bad character. After a quarrel, Ji Siyue voluntarily quit. She never thought that, as fate would have it, she would run into him stealing her team's wild monsters here.
[Current Chat] Starry River in the Woods: Oops, my hand slipped. Sorry!
That tone made it seem as if he was afraid no one would know he did it on purpose. He was really asking for a beating.
Nan Gongqi almost immediately replied.
[Current Chat] Tea Egg: I was wondering which bastard it was. So it's you, the loser!
This sentence hit [Starry River in the Woods] right in his sore spot.
Everyone knew that the few members of Prosperity Breakfast Shop could always rank among the top three in the alliance battles, while the team [Bibo Court] that Starry River in the Woods was in was always the fourth. No matter who the top three were, his team could never make it to the top three.
This had been a well - known laughingstock since the game was launched.
[Current Chat] Starry River in the Woods: Ouch, so angry just because your wild monster was stolen? Why are you so aggressive?
[Team Chat] Fried Oil Cake: Retreat first. Don't talk to them. Let's go.
Qin Chengyao was the captain. Even though everyone was extremely angry, they still followed his order and left.
They thought they were going to quit the dungeon directly. But when they reached a corner, [Fried Oil Cake] suddenly stopped. Then he cast a healing buff on the whole team and led them to hide in a dead corner of the map. As long as they didn't come out, no one could see them.
[Team Chat] Reach for Oysters:??? Aren't we leaving?
[Team Chat] Tofu Brain: Sister - in - law, do you really think we like to take a beating for nothing?
[Team Chat] Reach for Oysters:???
[Team Chat] Fried Oil Cake: We've cleared this dungeon before. If you don't leave the dungeon within three minutes after the last - hit, there's a 50% chance of triggering a hidden boss. We've been talking to them for over three minutes. Wait. Maybe the hidden boss will appear, and we'll steal it!
Just as Ji Siyue finished reading this message on the computer screen, a dragon's roar came from her headphones.
It was from the dungeon!
It was the hidden boss!
It really appeared!
The difficulty of the hidden boss was almost several times higher. It wasn't easy for them to defeat the normal boss. Although the members of Bibo Court were all wearing god - tier equipment, the requirements for equipment were still very strict.
It took them more than half an hour to barely bring the boss to low health.
Why was it “barely”? Because they were all running out of health and mana. They were relying entirely on their dodging skills to avoid the attacks of the red - health boss and gradually whittle down its health.
When the time seemed right, Qin Chengyao said to Zhu Zhiyao and Nan Gongqi beside him, “You two draw the boss's attention. The other three of us will find a chance to steal the kill.”
Ji Siyue watched as [Tofu Brain] and [Tea Egg] swaggered out.
Just as she was about to follow them, Qin Chengyao suddenly sent her a message.
[Team Chat] Fried Oil Cake: Don't go out. Let them attract the attention first. We'll steal the kill secretly.
So that's what he meant!
Ji Siyue smiled and flexed her wrists.
[Team Chat] Reach for Oysters: Alright! I don't believe we'll lose this time! I'm so angry!
In front of the screen, Qin Chengyao was staring at Zhu Zhiyao's computer screen on one side and reading the message Ji Siyue sent him on the other. He couldn't help but smile.
Zhu Zhiyao took a quick glance at him and asked, “Are you really going to pursue Ji Siyue again?”
Qin Chengyao thought it was just a casual question, so he didn't answer. But after a while, when he looked up, he found the other two were also staring at him, as if waiting for his answer.
After thinking for a while, Qin Chengyao answered seriously.
“She didn't mean to dump me. She had a car accident and suffered a head injury. She couldn't be cured abroad, so she came back.”
“Ah? I didn't expect that! We thought...” Bai Yu looked a bit uncomfortable.
“It's okay. Steal the kill. We can't let her down.”
“Alright!” Zhu Zhiyao rolled up his sleeves and showed his true nature as a top - level troll in the game.
[Current Chat] Tofu Brain: Yo, a fresh low - health boss. It's so tempting!
[Current Chat] Starry River in the Woods: What are you going to do?
Starry River in the Woods was afraid they hadn't left, and indeed they hadn't!
Now his team members were all in a bad state, while their healer could restore health and mana, and they had already recovered half of their state. If they joined the fight, it was really hard to say who would get the boss.
[Current Chat] Starry River in the Woods: You want to steal the kill?
[Current Chat] Tea Egg: Hmm... hard to say. After all, the temptation of a low - health boss is too great. It just makes people want to act!
Watching the drama on one side, Ji Siyue almost burst out laughing.
They really were vengeful. They must steal this boss!
She couldn't let Qin Chengyao be unhappy.
While the others were still taunting, [Fried Oil Cake] had already started to cool down his skills to prepare to steal the boss.
Ji Siyue also quickly got ready.
Seeing that the situation was not good, Starry River in the Woods directly ordered his subordinates to stop.
Anyway, these people just wanted to steal their boss. As long as they stopped attacking, the others wouldn't act rashly either.
Sure enough, after they stopped, the others also stopped moving. The two sides were in a stand - off, and neither side was willing to give up first.
[Team Chat] Reach for Oysters: Master, what are they doing? Are we really going to just stare at each other like this?
The next second.
System Notification: Congratulations to [Fried Oil Cake], a member of Prosperity Breakfast Shop, for defeating the hidden boss, the Blood - gushing Dragon King.
Ji Siyue: “...”
[Team Chat] Fried Oil Cake: Since you're in a hurry, let's stop playing. You two, pick up the loot and come out.
After coming out, Ji Siyue still felt it was quite exciting.
Although the dragon king was at low health, with Qin Chengyao's combo skills, the members of Bibo Court didn't even have time to steal the kill, because it was instantly killed.
What a terrifying amount of damage!
[Team Chat] Tea Egg: I bet the members of Bibo Court are going to be furious.
[Team Chat] Tofu Brain: They were the ones who stole our monsters first. Now they're furious? Where do they get the nerve?
Just then.
The world chat channel exploded.
The reason was a message sent by the captain of the fourth - ranked team in the server.
[World Chat] Starry River in the Woods: I remember you guys from Prosperity Breakfast Shop. From now on, when you see our people, stay away.
[World Chat] Starry Light: Awesome!
[World Chat] Grass: Just watching. A battle between the third - and fourth - ranked teams!
[World Chat] Little Rain: I remember this Starry River in the Woods seems to have a tragic love story with Prosperity Breakfast Shop!
As soon as she saw this message, Ji Siyue's gossipy heart immediately kicked in.
What? Tragic love? Where did that come from?
