Chapter 264 – Luck Is Very Important
Not long after Ye Xiu logged into the game, the clock hit twelve and the events began..
Players had naturally studied the event’s rules beforehand. Players didn’t need to accept any quests. They just needed to look for the Christmas thieves scattered around the map.
However, Christmas thieves had levels like normal monsters. The higher the level, the more points it would give. Besides this, there were also Elite Christmas thieves. They would score more points than normal thieves and would also give better quality presents.
“Ha ha, my luck is good. I’ve found one!” Ye Xiu heard Chen Guo laugh. He turned his head and saw Chen Guo’s Chasing Haze firing towards a Christmas thief. The thief immediately turned its head and pounced towards Chasing Haze. Meanwhile, nearby players also noticed this Christmas thief, but no matter how hard they attacked, the thief’s only target was Chasing Haze.
This was one of the special attributes of Christmas thieves: the first aggroed target was locked in. In order to prevent players from fighting amongst each other, whoever attacked the Christmas thief first had priority. Aggroed Christmas thieves would still be hurt by other players’ attacks, but no matter how much damage was dealt, it would only help the player who aggroed it first.
Seeing that Chasing Haze had already aggroed the Christmas thief, they stopped attacking and began searching again. The Christmas thief was nimble. It clearly wouldn’t be so easy to kill. Christmas thieves had different cla.s.ses just like players did. They were called thieves, but it didn’t mean their cla.s.s was that of a Thief. The monster that Chen Guo aggroed closed in on her and slashed at her; it was a Swordsman Cla.s.s: Berserker.
Chen Guo’s Chasing Haze used an Aerial Fire, dodging and attacking the Christmas thief.
“Not bad!” Ye Xiu praised. Using Aerial Fire to widen the distance while attacking the target was a basic Launcher maneuver. He could see that Chen Guo was quite proficient in this area. Her movements had been very clean.
Chen Guo was absorbed in the killing. She was focused on her battle with the Christmas thief and hadn’t noticed Ye Xiu praising her.
Ye Xiu watched for a bit and then went back to his own game. His Lord Grim had logged off in the wild. At this moment, players were running around everywhere around him. As soon as a Christmas thief sp.a.w.ned, who knew how many attacks flew at it.
Ye Xiu stretched his neck and looked towards Tang Rou. Tang Rou’s situation was similar to his. Players were everywhere. Finding a thief to kill was quite difficult. In this event, luck was an extremely important factor.
As Ye Xiu maneuvered his Lord Grim, he opened a message and saw that it was from Su Mucheng’s Cleansing Mist.
“You’re on time!” Su Mucheng said.
“Why are you on, too?” Ye Xiu was surprised.
“There’s an event! Of course I’m going to partic.i.p.ate.” Su Mucheng explained as if it were obvious.
”You've got nothing to do?” Ye Xiu said.
”I'm sick.” Su Mucheng said.
”How did that happen?” Ye Xiu asked.
”There's an event today, so I'm sick.” Su Mucheng said.
”Have some compet.i.tive integrity in you!” Ye Xiu replied.
”Everyone gets sick sometimes.” Su Mucheng gave an excuse.
”Sick people can partic.i.p.ate in events?”
”It's a mental sickness stemming from not being able to partic.i.p.ate in events, so I need to partic.i.p.ate in an event to cure it.” Su Mucheng gave an unreasonable reply.
”Have you captured any thieves yet?” Ye Xiu helplessly asked.
“Not yet. There’s too many people. I’m going to go to Fire Forest to take a look.” Su Mucheng replied.
