Chapter 44: I’m Fighting Myself! Is My Defeat at My Own Hands? (1/6)
(Thank you to the generous "Sakura Tree Under the Moon" for the 3,000 reward, I am deeply grateful, I am at a loss for words, I can only repay you with an explosive update!)
“I don’t know why, but I feel like the streamer is playing a different game from the Proving Ground Hall and the Hero’s Assembly.”
“Hurry up and kill the Sect Master, I’m really excited now, I feel like only the streamer can play against themselves!”
“Streamer, to be honest, after you killed the Sect Master last night, I went to challenge you, but your pet directly one-shot my pet!”
“666, how many statues does the streamer have now?!”
Li Mu Bai looked at the statue in his Hero’s Assembly and smiled.
His previous goal was to get all the statues in the Proving Ground Hall and the Hero’s Assembly before level 60, now he only needs to kill the level 59 Proving Ground Hall.
He glanced at the time in the lower right corner of his computer screen, 9:17 PM.
After midnight, he would take down the level 59 Proving Ground Hall and truly take flight.
Sweet.
After taking a screenshot, Li Mu Bai pressed F1 to return to Wulong Mountain.
He was going to challenge the Sect Master, which is to challenge himself!
“Alright, brothers, let’s kill the Sect Master first!”
He walked directly to the Sect Master, which was still Li Mu Bai’s own statue.
【About the Sect Master】
【I Want to Surpass Myself】
【I Want to Enter the Proving Ground Hall】
【I Want to See the Sect Master’s Splendor】
【I Want to Check the Elite Ranking of the Sect】
【Leave】
He clicked 【I Want to Surpass Myself】, and with Wulong Mountain as the background, he entered the battle interface.
The same ID, 【Storm Surge】, the same pet, the Divine Beast 【Jiang Liang】.
Logically.
Li Mu Bai, with his increased speed and damage, should definitely be stronger than he was at level 49.
Although the strength increase was limited.
But Li Mu Bai was cautious, because this battle also had a factor of luck.
With both having 5 million intimacy, Li Mu Bai was afraid that the statue’s Jiang Liang would keep reviving.
And this battle was not easy to use tricks.
Because his current pet was the fastest, followed by the statue’s pet, then his character’s speed, and finally the statue’s character.
But the speed difference between the two sides was not significant, there was a possibility that the battle system had adjusted the speed aspect.
The outcome of the battle couldn’t be said for sure until the end.
The first round officially began.
Based on Li Mu Bai's inference of the speed relationship between the four battle units, Li Mu Bai's character used the skill 【Force Breaking the Heavens】 to attack the enemy character.
The pet also attacked the enemy character.
The buttons were pressed.
As expected, Li Mu Bai’s Jiang Liang darted out first.
-12014
With a “Ah” from the enemy character, the enemy character fell.
But the next second, as if scripted, the enemy pet also charged towards Li Mu Bai's character.
【Blazing Flame】
-7115.
Without any surprises, Li Mu Bai’s character also fell.
The first round for all four battle units ended.
The second round began.
Li Mu Bai's character used 【Force Breaking the Heavens】 on the enemy character, the pet used 【Blood Jade】 to heal the character.
As if it was scripted again, just as Li Mu Bai's character got up, the enemy character also rose.
Seeing this, Li Mu Bai nodded in satisfaction.
【Force Breaking the Heavens】
-9107
-4517
The enemy character fell, and the second round ended, the third round unfolded.
The character used 【Force Breaking the Heavens】 to attack the enemy character, the pet attacked the enemy character.
Li Mu Bai’s pet was the fastest, rushing out first and could only attack the enemy Jiang Liang.
-35137
The scarlet damage value flickered, but Li Mu Bai’s Jiang Liang didn’t immediately return.
The enemy Jiang Liang, also holding a crimson tasseled halberd, slammed it down onto Li Mu Bai’s Jiang Liang’s body.
-30431 (Counter)
Looking at his pet’s health which was now severely depleted, Li Mu Bai laughed helplessly.
“Feels good, feels good, spam ‘feels good’ in the chat!”
“HAHAHAHA, what’s this called? What you sow, you shall reap!”
“Shocking, a certain popular streamer on Dou Sha finds himself entangled in a fight against himself.”
“This, this is what we call beating myself up!”
He didn’t bother to look at the barrage, because the battle was still ongoing.
The next second, the enemy character healed, followed by Li Mu Bai’s character holding a long spear and charging out.
【Force Breaking the Heavens】
-5347 (Critical Strike)
-7134
The enemy pet’s health decreased by another 7000+ but still didn’t fall.
The third round ended and entered the fourth round.
Even Li Mu Bai was in a predicament, although the enemy pet was only a sliver of health away from death, there was a high chance of it reviving.
And on Li Mu Bai’s side, the limitation of low-level equipment was showing.
His character’s mana was not enough to cast 【Force Breaking the Heavens】.
And his pet’s health wasn’t good either.
Looking at the countdown for the round, Li Mu Bai quickly made a battle decision.
His character attacked the enemy character, and the pet also attacked the enemy character.
The fourth round of the battle officially began.
Li Mu Bai’s Jiang Liang charged straight out, the crimson tasseled halberd striking towards the enemy Jiang Liang.
【Blazing Flame】
-14357
Li Mu Bai and the viewers in the live stream were all staring at the interface.
The enemy pet fell, but a chat message immediately appeared on the enemy Jiang Liang’s head on the public screen.
“Master, don’t worry, they can’t kill me with their three-legged cat skills!”
But the next second, the situation took a sharp turn.
Only to see a blood line appear on the enemy pet’s head, the enemy pet was healing itself.
And Li Mu Bai’s character charged out again, this time striking towards the enemy Jiang Liang.
-15304 (Critical Strike)
-7115 (Counter)
With an “Ah”, Li Mu Bai’s character fell under the enemy pet’s crimson tasseled halberd.
Li Mu Bai looked at his fallen character, then looked at his pet with only a quarter of its health left.
Could it be that his first defeat in this game would be at the hands of himself?
