Online Game: Don’t Heal the Others

Su Tingting used her new skill, making grass suddenly appear on the road. It would suddenly burst and entangle the enemies when they passed.

This was a ranging skill, so its duration would increase as its level went up. It was a good skill for her, even though it couldn’t cause enough damage.

Since Xiaofeng and Su Tingting were still members of the team, other teammates also heard the system prompt of killing the BOSS when they killed the Dark Chomper. Other players immediately opened the chat interface and asked for their position or tried to share the equipment dropped by the BOSS.

Su Tingting blocked the chat interface after quickly answering them impatiently.

There were no co-ordinates in the Dark Land. Therefore, it had to be difficult for other players to catch up with them.

“Master Xiaofeng! I’m eager to introduce you to my friends!”

Su Tingting was so excited after killing the Dark Chomper by herself that she called someone in secret. Xiaofeng didn’t pay much attention to their conversation. He could only hear a few words such as “really”, “horrible”, and “amazing”.

After ending the call, Su Tingting kept talking to Xiaofeng. It was obvious that she wanted to finish some other tasks with him.

“Let’s go. We should hurry up and finish this task before leveling up.”

Xiaofeng shook his head and directly ignored her. There were increasingly more players who had reached level 15, and Xiaofeng was about to be surpassed by them. Blademaster Ximen Chuixue had already caught up with him and taken the first place on the level list, which made Xiaofeng angry.

“OK! Let’s form a team and level up! I’m sure that you can upgrade easily!” Su Tingting was still excited. However, she was surprised after looking at the ground in front of them.

“There are corpses of monsters! Are there any other players here?”

Xiaofeng also noticed countless corpses of Skeleton Soldiers on the ground. It was obvious that they had been killed by other players. They had collected all the gold coins but left the whiteboard equipment.

The corpses and equipment hadn’t been cleared by the system yet, which indicated that there had been other players there 10 minutes ago.

“Did we get lost? Maybe they caught up with us.”

Su Tingting’s voice was full of doubt. She was referring to the other teammates.

The Dark Land was a special map. There were no system co-ordinates, and players couldn’t even track the icons of their teammates on the map.

“I don’t think so. We have been walking in a straight line. I don’t think they can catch up with us. It seems that other players also took on this task,” Xiaofeng said as he shook his head.

“You’re right. This is a team task and other nearby main cities must have issued the same task.”

Then, she said, “Let’s go. We can catch up with them and see where they are from. We could also form a team with them if they are master players.”

Su Tingting put on her mask after talking. Xiaofeng could only see half of her beautiful face now. Xiaofeng also put on the black mask. Although this was troublesome, he regretted not wearing a mask in the live studio. He had to wear a mask for fear that other players might recognize him in the game world.

They followed the corpses of the skeleton monsters on the road and tried to catch up with them. As they walked deeper into the Dark Land, many monsters appeared around them. Although most of them were low-level Skeleton Soldiers, the concentration became greater.

Other players had paved the road for them. Xiaofeng and Tingting stepped on the bones and found them easily.

“Gee! It’s impossible to finish this task!”

After a while, they heard the voices of other players. After walking through the dry woods, they saw a team of 5 players.

“Look out! Someone is right behind you!”

When Xiaofeng and Tingting suddenly appeared, the other five players were both terrified and surprised. All of them entered combat state in an instant. They were relieved after discovering that they were players rather than monsters.

“Buddy, are you here to finish the task?”

Among the five players, the leading mage player shouted at Xiaofeng.

“Yes.”

Xiaofeng answered his question but kept them at a distance. The other five players didn’t remove the combat state. It was not uncommon for players to kill people and grab their equipment in the wild.

“You’d better give up and leave this place. This is a mission impossible.”

The mage player shook his head and spoke with a frustrated expression.

“What happened? Are you sure? I don’t think the system would give us a mission impossible.”

Su Tingting seemed confused.

“You’ll notice if you walk deeper into the forest. The middle area of the Dark Land is shrouded in a black mist. You can’t even walk through it!” another warrior player said.

“Black mist? Why can’t you walk through it? Is it too dark to figure out the right direction? Why don’t you use a flashlight?” Su Tingting asked them once again.

“No, we can find the right direction, but the black mist can cause damage and make your HP decline by a certain percentage per second. There is no time to take drugs,” the warrior player said before shaking his head.

“Can we go around?”

Su Tingting’s question made it obvious that she had rich experience in playing online games.

“We’ve tried to go around, but the entire Dark Land is covered by the black mist. There is no entrance at all,” the warrior player said.

Then, the mage player said, “We also tried to break in. One of our teammates was a priest so he could heal and take drugs at the same time. However, he was also killed and sent back to the main city after moving about 200 miles. We don’t even know the range of the mist, but we believe that it covers at least 500 meters!”

“Don’t waste your time. This is a mission impossible. You’d better give up and choose another task. Although this is a story-line task, you can’t finish it,” the warrior player said as he shook his head.

“Let’s go.”

As soon as the mage player said this, the team of five immediately turned around and left after Xiaofeng and Tingting. It seemed that they had decided to give up.

Su Tingting frowned as she was lost in thought. The moment the team of five brushed against Xiaofeng and Su Tingting, another player suddenly appeared behind Xiaofeng and hit Xiaofeng’s head with a dagger. This was Sap, which was the controlling skill of an assassin! The target would get dizzy for a long time once attacked by this skill!

They were not a team of five! An assassin had been lying in wait for Xiaofeng!

The warrior player also turned around the moment the assassin showed up and used a one-handed shield to hit Xiaofeng!

This was the shield attack skill of the shield warrior, which could also make other players feel dizzy!

This was clearly a sneak attack! Xiaofeng had been their target! It was generally known that players had to kill the priest of the opposite team in a Player Killing.

The other four players also took action at the same time. Two archers fired arrows at Xiaofeng while the leading mage player started to sing. The last wild warrior focused on Su Tingting and rushed over at her with swords in both hands.

He wanted to pin down Su Tingting and prevent her from running away. After the other five players killed the priest, they could work together and kill this archer quickly!

They believed that this sneak attack was very successful. The priest and archer were easy to kill and they could seckill them within a few minutes. It seemed that Xiaofeng and Su Tingting would be turned into corpses one by one.

“How dare you finish the team task without forming a team! Your equipment must be excellent! I’m curious to know how many items you can drop!”

The mage player was singing and laughing at Xiaofeng and Su Tingting. He was very confident.

However, the next moment, his eyes widened involuntarily.

“Hey! You have been affected by the marking skill of player Abyss Emperor and have thus entered combat state. Your equipment skills Fragrance of Flower and Returning Scroll are temporarily invalid…”

“Hey! Player Past Time has launched malicious attacks on you. You can now strike back against him.”

“Hey! Player Fellow Sufferers has launched malicious attacks on you. You can now strike back against him.”

…

Xiaofeng heard several system prompts in an instant. Although the attacks hadn’t landed on him yet, the system decided that they were successful since they’d already been launched at Xiaofeng.

However, Xiaofeng remained calm, as if he had already expected their attacks. He twisted his head sideways slightly to dodge the Sap skill of the assassin who was attacking him from behind.

“Miss!”

The assassin was shocked when two lights appeared on Xiaofeng’s hands. He added a Life Blessing to Su Tingting and increased her HP by 165 to protect her.

Then, he added a Weapon Blessing on himself and his attacking force reached 400 in an instant!

“-1!”

At the same time, the shield warrior attacked Xiaofeng with his skills. However, he was amazed by Xiaofeng, who stood as still as if he was attacking a wall. Although a mandatory damage figure floated on his head, he was not dizzy.

It seemed that Xiaofeng had just twisted his body to get prepared. The hunter among the two archer players shot an arrow at Xiaofeng. However, the Frost Arrow also missed the target and fell on the ground. The nearby ground was frozen in an instant.

Although the last shooter player shot Xiaofeng successfully in the chest, a small figure of damage appeared.

“-21!”

This was the Tracking Arrow, which was a 15th-level shooter skill. Its hitting accuracy could reach 100%! This meant that the shooter player had reached level 15! He had to be the strongest player in this team. He hadn’t said anything before, so Xiaofeng hadn’t expected that he would be the greatest threat!

Xiaofeng, who was an expert at defending, only lost a few Health Points after being attacked.

The shooter player was also astonished. He clearly knew that he had a high attacking force, so he couldn’t believe the damage was as low as if the target had been a BOSS. He stared at the HP on Xiaofeng’s head, which appeared after Xiaofeng was attacked.

He had more than 390 Health Points!

The shooter player stared blankly at the figure, unable to believe what he saw. Was this a shield warrior with a wand? Why did he have such a high HP? Why was he so good at defense?

Then, Xiaofeng started to strike back against them.

The huge golden hammer appeared in his hands. Xiaofeng waved it and then immediately hit the shield warrior and the assassin.
