Chapter 364 - Super Alliance

Liu Rui watched Nie Yan arrogantly strolling over and felt like an insignificant speck of dust as he stood among the crowd. He recently lost two levels in a row due to being targeted by Thieves from Asskickers United. Only after spending a fortune to acquire a large supply of Unknown Transfer Scrolls did he dare to venture out of the city again, quickly teleporting away at the slightest sign of danger. Every day was miserable, never knowing when the next ambush might happen. He of course knew who the perpetrator behind all this was!

Liu Rui’s pride was deeply wounded. He gritted his teeth in anger and humiliation. He already hated Nie Yan to the bone and could barely hold himself back after seeing such a cocky display.

Now the shoe was on the other foot. Liu Rui had used even nastier methods in the previous timeline. Nie Yan planned to thoroughly pay everything back!

Nie Yan’s lips curved into a smile of contempt. Liu Rui would never again have the qualifications to compete with him!

Seeing the look of disdain in Nie Yan’s eyes, Liu Rui’s fury erupted like a volcano. There was only so much he could take. A blazing Arcane Fireball condensed in his palm.

Liu Rui felt confident his teammates wouldn’t stand idly by if he took action. At worst the situation would devolve into a full-out battle. It was much better than taking this humiliation lying down!

“Shit! What the fuck are you doing, Sky Piercer!? Stand down, now!” Fresh Fish hollered. But it was too late. Liu Rui shot the Arcane Fireball at Nie Yan.

Lil’ Gold stepped forward and blocked the fireball, which exploded into a shower of embers on his golden scales.

Fresh Fish felt his stomach drop like a stone. They had attacked first, meaning Nie Yan could retaliate against them without facing any repercussion. He raised his staff in preparation for an imminent slaughter.

“Nirvana Flame, I’ll crush you beneath my feet one day!” Liu Rui flared as his face distorted with fury and vitriol.

“You’re welcome to try. Let’s see if you have the skill.” Nie Yan couldn’t even be bothered to spare a glance at such a hollow display. Liu Rui was all bark and zero bite.

At this moment, Lil’ Gold turned his head and shot out a Dragon Fireball. Before Liu Rui could even react, the blazing attack engulfed him in flames.

How could a cloth-armoured Mage withstand a single hit from Lil’ Gold?

Naturally, it was an instant kill!

Liu Rui fell dead to the ground. His clothes were burnt black, and smoke rose up from his corpse.

Lil’ Gold snorted a few flames from his nostrils after making short work of Liu Rui, then looked around, almost as if he were asking if there were any other takers.

The players from Victorious Return felt their blood run cold. Only now did they have an understanding of Lil’ Gold’s terrifying power.

Nie Yan’s expression remained unchanged after killing Liu Rui. However, the players from Victorious Return were shaking in their boots.

Still no one else dared to attack Nie Yan. They were all waiting for Fresh Fish’s command.

Liu Rui actually thought he could instigate everyone into battle. This was simply wishful thinking!

Nie Yan was almost 10 levels above them at Level 54 and geared out in amazing equipment. Add this to the fact he also had a powerful Level 50 Golden Dragon by his side, and it was no wonder they were hesitant to act.

The Warriors and Berserkers were prepared to rush forward.「Everybody, remain calm. Don’t attack without my orders!」Fresh Fish commanded in voice chat.

Fresh Fish’s forehead seeped with cold sweat. He felt like he was walking on a knife’s edge. It was still possible to maintain a standoff at this moment. But if things escalated any further, all hell would break loose, at which point no one could predict what might happen. Nie Yan was simply too frightening. Fresh Fish had no idea how to guard against such a Thief.

Everyone’s nerves were stretched taught. They would dogpile Nie Yan as soon as he took action.

Fresh Fish raised his staff before lowering it down again in the end. As long as everyone simultaneously attacked Nie Yan, they could obliterate him. He predicted the Golden Dragon wouldn’t fare much better off against such an intense barrage of attacks.

But Fresh Fish ultimately didn’t dare to take action. Nie Yan was bound to have some aces up his sleeve. Why else would he act so brazenly?

Nie Yan always had assurances. He would never allow himself to fall into a dangerous situation.

Fresh Fish feared they might end up similar to Liu Rui, getting crushed like ants.

Nie Yan and Lil’ Gold continued walking forwards as the players from Victorious Return stepped aside and let them pass.

The tension in the air was palpable. They were ready to attack at a moment’s notice.
