To Harm the Righteous Path, I Had No Choice But to Make Games
Chapter 263: Return to Tianren City
The three of them returned to Zhong Yi’s room, staring at each other.
Although they died very quickly, turning into a soul tomb upon landing, and it happened twice;
Yet, in the hearts of all three, there was a feeling of... no, it was an extreme sense of unfulfillment!
Upon returning to the room, the three of them intensely reviewed their mistakes from just now, their hearts boiling with excitement.
The combat-oriented Illusion Realm created by Lu Ze far exceeded their imagination!
The surprises brought to them by “eternal calamity” were simply too many.
If it was just simple combat, even if the skills were flashy and the Moves were strong, for them, it would be bland.
After all, they had experienced too many battles, big and small, in reality.
What difference would it make from the Heavenly Dao Secret Realm they usually experienced if it was just about fighting?
But “eternal calamity” was different.
In addition to basic combat, it also set up a new mechanism of mutual restraint consisting of “normal attack,” “charged attack,” and “parry.”
Thinking of the mechanism, Zhong Yi couldn’t help but raise an eyebrow.
Upon careful reflection, wasn’t the reason Lu Ze’s Illusion Realm was so appealing precisely because of its unique Illusion Realm rules and mechanisms?
Of course, what they found novel was by no means just the combat System.
The setting of “the last surviving team wins the secret treasure” was not unheard of in the Heavenly Dao Secret Realm.
It was about stimulating slaughter, and Zhong Yi was not yet surprised by this.
However, on this basis, the setting of increasing resource richness,
and the setting where everyone enters empty-handed and needs to strengthen themselves by accumulating supplies, made the Illusion Realm truly shine.
So many variables made all the gambles full of unknowns!
“I really don’t know how Junior Brother Lu’s brain works, to be able to come up with such a brilliant Illusion Realm!”
Zhong Yi exclaimed in admiration.
“What do you say, Old Zhong, are we still jumping to Tianren City?”
Zhou Yue was still savoring the previous battle, asking with lingering excitement.
“Jump, why not jump?”
Zhong Yi nodded without hesitation.
“Tianren Grand Stage, if you have a blade, come... But Old Zhou, wait for a bit and stand guard outside, let Junior Brother Mu and I open the loot piles.”
“Bah! I found a blade last round, alright...”
“Are you referring to getting a white blade from a gold pile... Your Fellow Daoists in your live stream have already come to me to complain...”
...
The three once again boarded the flying boat, their target this time still Tianren City.
In its previous life, “eternal calamity” had 60 players per round.
To gain more Demonic ➤ NоvеⅠight ➤ (Read more on our source) Value, Lu Ze increased this number to 99.
Anyway, the Illusion Realm was made large enough to accommodate them completely.
This time, there were no players like Chu Feiyu who stirred up trouble, but when the flying boat passed over Tianren City, the Cultivators still jumped down frantically like dumplings being dropped into a pot.
“Old Zhou, Junior Brother Mu, jump to the Tianren Gallery Bridge! Don’t miss!”
Zhong Yi shouted in the air.
In the previous game, they had only caught a distant glimpse during their revival, seeing Advanced loot piles shimmering with dazzling light near the Tianren Gallery Bridge.
The Tianren Gallery Bridge was located in the very center of Tianren City, so it was normal for its resources to be superior to other places.
“Okay!!”
Zhou Yue and Mu Yawen nodded in unison.
One stepped through an open window, entering the second floor.
The other rolled and landed, dropping into the first floor.
Zhong Yi, who had been directing everyone’s landing spots throughout, swayed precariously into the river valley beneath the gallery bridge, in the sight of the other two.
“Cough cough, accident, accident...”
“...No no no, Old Zhong, you’ve always performed very consistently.”
Zhou Yue’s mouth twitched.
Soon, he put aside his thoughts of teasing Zhong Yi.
Because on the second floor of the Tianren Gallery Bridge, four Cultivators had landed, front and back!
“Come, fight!”
Zhou Yue’s eyes were full of Battle Intent.
He swiftly rolled to the side, his palm gliding over the blue loot pile in front of him.
When it came to consistent performance, Zhou Yue was no less than Zhong Yi.
A white life soul jade and two weapon chests scattered before him, his breathing suddenly hitched.
Especially when a Tianhai player opposite him pulled out a purple Tang blade from a blue pile right in front of his face.
“Damn it!”
Zhou Yue cursed loudly and jumped out the window without looking back.
His posture was very agile; he used a double jump to easily change direction in the air and arrived beside Mu Yawen.
At this moment, Mu Yawen was holding a bird rifle, studying it curiously.
“Junior Brother Mu, be careful!”
Seeing someone behind Mu Yawen, Zhou Yue quickly warned.
“Haha! Come fight!”
Mu Yawen picked up the bird rifle and swung it at the opponent’s head, an action that completely stunned Zhou Yue.
“Strange... why can’t this weapon be charged??”
Mu Yawen looked at the bird rifle in her hand curiously.
After that one swing, the opponent showed no reaction at all.
A bird rifle was a weapon used for hunting by common folk.
Mu Yawen was born into an aristocratic family and had never encountered such a common weapon, so she was naturally unfamiliar with it.
“Junior Brother Mu... that’s a ranged weapon!! Quickly switch to the greatsword!!!”
Zhou Yue quickly reminded.
Upon hearing this, Mu Yawen quickly switched to the blue greatsword on her back.
“Clang clang clang!”
The opponent’s long spear, like dense raindrops, attacked the greatsword’s blade, triggering the Steadfast effect.
Mu Yawen counterattacked with the momentum, sending the opponent flying with two slashes.
“Hey! I’m getting the hang of it!!”
He had been utterly useless the entire previous round, unable to land a single slash, but this time, he felt great after chopping.
The opponent scrambled to his feet from the ground, his white armor shattered directly; how would he dare to fight back?
With a “swish” sound.
His figure disappeared, instantly moving to a distant location.
“Don’t run!!”
Mu Yawen was momentarily stunned, then realized that there were skills involved.
He used Yue Mountain’s skill, dashing forward a short distance, seeing that the Canaan player was about to escape to the second floor to rendezvous with his teammates.
Only a crisp sound of a grappling hook shooting out was heard.
Zhou Yue picked up the grappling hook he had just found and accurately hooked the Canaan’s back.
“Junior Brother Mu, he’s stunned... Go quickly!”
“Okay!”
...
...
Mu Yawen and Zhou Yue were having a blast fighting on the gallery bridge.
Zhong Yi, however, was in a terrible state at the bottom of the river valley.
Many people who failed to jump onto the bridge had fallen into the valley bottom.
The Tianren River Valley’s gully was very deep; without a grappling hook, it would take a long time to climb up.
Resources were scarce in the river valley.
There was originally a loot pile in front of Zhong Yi, and it had yielded a blue longsword.
Unfortunately, he was too slow and couldn’t snatch it from others...
The situation instantly turned into a one-on-three.
“Junior Brother Mu, I’ll hook, you kill! Once you kill, I’ll have a weapon!!”
“Understood!! One slash and they’re dead!!”
Listening to the intense battle sounds coming from the squad voice chat, Zhong Yi took a deep breath.
He knew that now he could only rely on himself.
Zhong Yi stood in a horse stance and waved at the trio opposite him:
“Come on!”
“I’m also very good at fighting, you know!”
...
...
One minute later.
“Oh no, his teammates are here!”
“Don’t be afraid, I’ve already gotten the weapon on this guy!”
Zhou Yue and Mu Yawen were passionately communicating when Zhong Yi’s voice, which they hadn’t heard for a long time, suddenly came through the squad voice chat.
“What weapon is he holding?”
Zhou Yue glanced: “A longsword, and the other is a greatsword.”
“A longsword, huh... That’s simple, after he performs two normal attacks, the third will be a charged attack! Parry him, guaranteed win.”
Zhong Yi’s tone was calm and confident.
It was hard not to be convinced.
Just as Zhou Yue was about to say something, the opponent initiated an attack.
The Dustless Cultivator with the greatsword targeted Mu Yawen, who also held a greatsword.
The two of them kept “clanging” endlessly.
The other Yue Mountain, wielding a longsword, first initiated 【Charge】, pushing Zhou Yue back a step and gaining the initiative.
After the opponent finished two normal attacks, Zhou Yue immediately activated his parry as Zhong Yi had instructed.
With a “clang” sound, the longsword instantly flew out.
“Whoa! Old Zhong, you’re amazing! How did you figure that out?”
Zhou Yue asked in surprise.
“How did I figure it out...”
Zhong Yi sighed.
“I was hit by three consecutive combos from that damn longsword; the Moves were exactly the same!!!”
“You guys hurry up and fight, then come save me!!”
