Chapter 441 - King of the World
Nie Yan fled with all his might. He shot out a web line from his left hand and swung away, landing eight meters away from Furblaze. Taking advantage of his miniaturized size, he sprinted through narrow spaces that greatly limited Furblaze’s movements.
Nie Yan crushed an Aggro Dispel Scroll in an attempt to reduce Furblaze’s aggro.
Normally, the higher the aggro, the more determined a monster would be to pursue a target. When the aggro was relatively low, the monster was more likely to lose interest or stop altogether, leaving the player with ample room to get away.
Furblaze paused for a brief moment before recovering almost immediately. His aggro wouldn’t be so easily removed. After all, Nie Yan had stolen something precious from him!
The Evil Gemstone was still in Nie Yan’s possession. Furblaze wouldn’t give up until it was retrieved!
Just as Furbalze resumed his pursuit, a giant web emerged out of thin air and fell over him, binding him in place.
The Intermediate Web Scroll could only trap Furblaze for three seconds at most. Though the effects were limited, every second counted.
Nie Yan’s figure darted through the corridor. He knew it was only a matter of time before Furblaze caught up to him again. He activated Shadow Waltz and rapidly disappeared into the shadows.
Furblaze slashed away the giant web binding him with his greatsword and continued his pursuit, only to discover Nie Yan was nowhere to be found.
He let out a furious roar and started making his way to the building’s entrance.
Before long, Furblaze called over a large number of Bloodshadow Warriors. They quickly gathered together and blockaded the entrance so that not even a mouse could pass through. Meanwhile, a few of them entered the building and started searching for traces of Nie Yan.
After seeing the entrance sealed off, Nie Yan let out a bitter laugh. It appeared he was a turtle trapped in a jar.
Should I just give up on the Evil Gemstone? Nie Yan was conflicted. Furblaze probably wasn’t dumb enough to hide the Evil Gemstone in the same location twice. It was likely he would never get this chance again, which in turn meant he would forever lose the opportunity to obtain the Holy Acclamation and become a Luminous Dancer.
Every master class player could learn skills from other classes to strengthen themselves. Of course the skills available for them to learn were only the most basic. However, there were special cases where a player could learn more powerful non-base class skills by obtaining a prestige class title. There were several such Shadow Dancers in the previous timeline, Luminous Dancer Smiling Thief and Shadow Stalker Sun. Of course those in possession of these titles were few and far between. This was a symbol of the peak!
Obtaining the Evil Gemstone wouldn’t make class advancing any easier. But in order to become a Luminous Dancer, it was absolutely necessary! Without it, everything else was idle chatter!
With the opportunity of becoming a Luminous Dancer on the line, Nie Yan wouldn't easily give up this Evil Gemstone!
Droves of Bloodshadow Warriors entered the building and started scouring around.
Nie Yan ducked into a small storage room and hid in a secluded corner. He needed to weather out this storm first before thinking about anything else.
Nie Yan estimated the Bloodshadow Warriors would continue their search for at least the next one or two hours. He would look for an opportunity to escape when they finally gave up their search. Until then it would be suicidal to go out.
As Nie Yan nervously waited, he heard the sound of approaching footsteps. The door flew open and several Bloodshadow Warriors entered the storage room and started searching around. His body in pygmy form was incredibly small. Relying on the cover of some shabby desks and chairs, he successfully evaded being caught.
After failing to find anything, the several Bloodshadow Warriors left the storage room.
About half-an-hour later, Pygmy Transformation was close to wearing off. But since the number of Bloodshadow Warriors searching here had decreased a lot. Even without the pygmy form, he would be fine.
Nie Yan patiently waited for another hour before daring to peek out the door.
Nie Yan carefully snuck over to the front of the building. The entrance was still guarded by more than 20 Bloodshadow Warriors. Furblaze was surprisingly nowhere in sight.
An opportunity!
As long as Furblaze wasn’t present, Nie Yan could make his escape. These ordinary Bloodshadow Warriors had no hope of stopping him.
Nie Yan cautiously approached the Bloodshadow Warriors, halting his footsteps when he was around 20 meters away. He hid behind a corner, took out an Advanced Twisting Vines Scroll, and then started chanting away. The pulses of magic energy alerted the Bloodshadow Warriors, and they immediately charged toward his location.
