MMORPG: Martial Gamer Chapter 1273 - Insta Kill!

Chapter 1273: Insta Kill!

Sacred Mountain was also a distinguished top tier expert after all. Even though his heart was mired in hesitation, as he stood on the battlefield, his gaze turned sharp and he left all his emotional baggage behind. There was only a singular determination to achieve victory.

This was the level of professionalism that was expected of professionals. It was not only about being responsible for oneself but also respecting your opponent.

a.s.sa.s.sins had an extremely wretched and cunning playstyle. The moment the match began, Sacred Mountain went into [Stealth].

As the compet.i.tion went on, players had discovered more and more strategies to counter [Stealth]. Although Sacred Mountain knew that his skill would not provide much utility against w.a.n.g Yu, it still provided him with a peace of mind.

Seeing that his opponent had hurriedly used [Stealth], w.a.n.g Yu stood on the spot motionlessly.

w.a.n.g Yu’s intuitive sense told him that if he made a move at this moment, Sacred Mountain would definitely be ready to duck backwards in retreat.

Once Sacred Mountain moved past w.a.n.g Yu’s vision, w.a.n.g Yu would not be able to detect his presence any longer. His dominant strategy was to wait for Sacred Mountain to make the first move.

Sacred Mountain would definitely seize an opportunity to attack once it presented itself.

After being in [Stealth], Sacred Mountain glanced at the stationary w.a.n.g Yu delightedly.

In <>, all skills required some movement to activate it. Since w.a.n.g Yu was not moving at all, Sacred Mountain could infer that w.a.n.g Yu was not executing any anti-stealth skills.

For an a.s.sa.s.sin, once an opponent had no anti-stealth skills, it was a clear path to victory for them. This was the case even for an opponent who could even best the G.o.d of War, Tranquility Yields Transcendence in a fight.

After all, an a.s.sa.s.sin’s damage was strong enough to insta-kill any player with a series of attacks as long as he was not a tank. How could a low HP Pugilist endure these attacks?

After a.n.a.lysing the situation, Sacred Mountain cast [Haste] as he crept towards w.a.n.g Yu’s back. He stealthily raised his dagger and stabbed cleanly down on w.a.n.g Yu.

At this instance, w.a.n.g Yu smiled as he slammed his right hand back. He held Sacred Mountain’s wrist with a vice grip.

Sacred Mountain was taken aback when he felt the first throes of contact as he hurriedly retreated backwards.

The a.s.sa.s.sin was a skilled cla.s.s in Agility and they were comparatively weaker in Strength. This was compounded when w.a.n.g Yu had used [Savage Maul].

At this moment, w.a.n.g Yu turned his body with unstoppable momentum to force Sacred Mountain’s hand into an awkward position behind his back. With one hand, w.a.n.g Yu smacked down viciously on his opponent.

Sacred Mountain also possessed some skills after all for him to reach his current achievements. Facing the oncoming attack, Sacred Mountain suddenly leaped into the air and executed [Upsurge Leap].

Sacred Mountain maneuvered himself dexterously in the air and slammed hard into the mid-region of w.a.n.g Yu.

[Upsurge Leap] was an a.s.sa.s.sin’s auxiliary skill that enhanced their vertical jump power. Since w.a.n.g Yu was not familiar with these skills, he subconsciously stuck out his free hand to block the incoming kick.

Sacred Mountain borrowed the rebounding force of w.a.n.g Yu’s hand to retreat backwards. He rolled to the ground safely and once again used [Stealth].

Just when Sacred Mountain thought he was outside of w.a.n.g Yu’s grasp, w.a.n.g Yu waved his hand forward and shot a white streak of light. This light clung on to the ankles of Sacred Mountain.

Sacred Mountain only felt that he was dragged backwards and the next moment, he appeared before w.a.n.g Yu.

“F*ck!!!”

In his panic, Sacred Mountain haphazardly threw a white spherical orb at w.a.n.g Yu.

w.a.n.g Yu loosened his grip on Sacred Mountain as he reached forward to catch the orb.

“Pfft!”

The white orb exploded upon contact as a white smoke enveloped the two players.

“F*ck!! That’s a smoke bomb!!” The players from Quan Zhen Sect saw the battle developments and smacked their foreheads in exasperation, “That idiot, how could you catch it like that!”

“F*ck…”

As the audience saw the white smoke billowing in the distance they were taken aback and murmured, “Hm, why would he catch a smoke bomb with his bare hands. Isn’t it common game knowledge not to do that? Could he be a newbie?”

The other audience members immediately retorted, “Fart! Can a newbie defeat the G.o.d of War, Tranquility Yields Transcendence? Have you seen such a newbie?”

The other professional players who were defeated by w.a.n.g Yu felt aggrieved by those comments.

It seemed that the false equivalence that a veteran = expert was deeply ingrained in the minds of the players. However, the battle ongoing showed that there was more to it than in-game experience.

“Haha!”

Seeing that w.a.n.g Yu had taken the brunt of his attack, Sacred Mountain had a smug smile on his face.

Although the smoke bomb had no lasting damage, there was a blinding effect whose active time was more than sufficient for an a.s.sa.s.sin to complete the job.

In this case, although the difference between stealth and blindness was not large, this was to limit the vision of the opponent so there was no target for him to attack.

It was quite extraordinary for w.a.n.g Yu to even have an anti-stealth skill against Sacred Mountain. Was it possible for him to have an anti-blindness skill too?

Sacred Mountain picked his dagger up on the ground and rolled covertly to w.a.n.g Yu’s side and stabbed swiftly into his side.

At this instance, w.a.n.g Yu leaped to the side. His legs brimmed with lightning as they struck back at Sacred Mountain.

w.a.n.g Yu had a tall figure that contributed to his long limbs. This was contrasted with Sacred Mountain who was focused on an a.s.sa.s.sin’s posture with one hand clasped in the other.

Before Sacred Mountain’s dagger even reached w.a.n.g Yu, the lightning from w.a.n.g Yu’s feet landed squarely on his face.

[Thunder G.o.d’s Stomp] was w.a.n.g Yu’s signature move. The power behind this move was not to be underestimated. Sacred Mountain’s stationary position meant that he felt the full brunt of the attack.

“Boom!”

-80000!

There was a m.u.f.fled explosion and Sacred Mountain was dissipated into a streak of white light.

Insta kill!!

The audience was flabbergasted.

They looked on the aftermath with horror on their faces, “This… how is this possible? Was he not blinded by a smoke bomb?”

Sacred Mountain was not a fool. He knew that w.a.n.g Yu was not completely immobilised even though he was blinded. Therefore, he had rolled to w.a.n.g Yu’s weak side before daring to attack.

However, at that instant, w.a.n.g Yu’s kick was so quick and precise that it resulted in the insta-kill. Even if another player was not blinded, he might not have reached the same level of accuracy as w.a.n.g Yu.

This… This development was way too strange.

“Was it because he had caught the smoke bomb so the bomb did not have the blinding effect?”

The other players utilised their vivid imagination to attempt to justify whatever they had seen.

Sh*t, it was no wonder that a master like him had made such a rookie error. It turned out that catching a smoke bomb could prevent the blinding effect. They had once again learnt another useful little trick.

The audience etched this valuable piece of information in their hearts… a.s.sa.s.sins would never dare to throw smoke bombs casually on a whim now.
