Chapter 49
As soon as we saw the people from the Divine Might Prison, the giant butterfly monster and I rushed over at the same time as if we were running a race. The giant butterfly monster was a normal reaction of the NPC, but I saw a familiar stupid face among these "lucky" babies.
Although the speed of this colorful giant butterfly demon in front of me is not as exaggerated as that of the beast god, it is only a little slower than the assassin running at full speed. Now, this jubilant fat butterfly, like an excited weasel, followed me into the group of unlucky "chicken coops". And these fools who followed behind to take advantage of me showed me how normal people become psychopaths.
The ferocious colorful monster, like an oversized kite, slid silently through the woods with the wind.
Faced with this cool and abrupt appearance, the "Hanging Boots Ghosts" of the Shenwei Prison were obviously not used to it. They were all stunned at first, and then a very "emotional" cry came out: "Isn't this the fucking Boss!" Then, amid the chaotic shouting, those who wanted to attack and those who wanted to escape collided with each other at the same time, causing the originally well-arranged formation to suddenly become a mess.
The brothers of Shenweiyu were indeed very brave. After recognizing the identity of the butterfly, some of them still tried to move forward. However, when the five knights and two Taoists in the front were beaten into white light by the giant butterfly monster like playing whack-a-mole, all the fools who wanted to be "butterfly killers" with low self-confidence realized the gap between themselves and the fat butterfly. So, the warriors who were originally as brave as lunatics began a smooth "strategic retreat" in unison.
After I mixed into the crowd, I carefully sneaked behind an idiot wizard. When he first saw the butterfly, the mighty wizard was very happy to shoot a tsunami. But before he could shoot the second butterfly, the butterfly had already turned seven people into "heroes". After enjoying such a wonderful performance, this guy immediately picked up a corner of the wizard's robe with one hand, and with the other hand, he held up the war melody that looked like a root carving, turned around and ran away. From his skilled posture, it can be seen that this person has already mastered the mystery of life in movement.
The giant butterfly demon probably "felt bad" to the mage who had thrown ice slag all over him. Just as the mage decided not to fight him, the distinctive antennae on the butterfly's head began to move quickly, and a beautiful and familiar pentagram array appeared out of thin air under the mage's feet - paralysis spell, simple and practical, with good effect. Someone immediately froze there in the posture of running away.
Now, the colorful giant butterfly demon not only fully proved his high quality as a boss by birth and versatile, but also used practical actions to responsibly tell the painkiller gentleman who littered things: Butterfly, is very angry, and the consequences are very serious.
Looking at the silly bubbling "statue", I sighed, fearing this very situation.
He casually flipped over a bundle of time-delay bombs and stuck them neatly on Mr. Painkillers' buttocks, then turned in front of him and calmly stabbed him three times with a dagger filled with deadly poison. Looking at the exaggerated blood spurting out of the "green" wizard, I believe he succeeded at least twice.
"I can't help it. Rather than being killed by the Boss, I'd rather save my brother." I admired the "sad" expression on Fourth Brother's green face while sneaking into stealth before the butterfly arrived. "At least I won't destroy your equipment."
When the giant butterfly monster's spear was about to hit the mage, the bomb exploded, sending the green Fourth Brother back to the resurrection point, and also making the giant butterfly monster's left arm "burnt on the outside and tender on the inside". Judging from this effect, this giant butterfly monster is much more fragile than the one outside the woods, probably because of its agility. Its defense and health bar seem to be not as good as the one flying steadily. Unfortunately, except for me, the members of the Liuyun team who were running for their lives did not notice this.
Although they admired the "self-destruct" skill of the deputy team leader, they were more impressed by the "little hands" on the giant butterfly monster's head. Adhering to the principle that the boss's moves must be abnormal, the two little hands, once they gestured, one would be frozen, and once they were frozen, one would be killed. It was really fair to all, regardless of gender. Now everyone knows that the giant butterfly monster's paralysis technique has a 100% hit rate of high quality.
After making several gestures in a row and daring to run and look at the same time, Lima made all the brothers and sisters lose interest in even "looking back and smiling". At this time, all the people had the same idea, "whoever runs away is one, and that one might be me", so these people did not even think about using life-saving skills, which made Mr. Assassin, who wanted to squat on the side and pick up bargains, very depressed.
It was basically certain that this giant butterfly demon did not know how to detect, because the compound eyes with seven pairs of sunglasses did not notice the terrorist who dared to squat within ten meters of the victim butterfly after placing the bomb. After waving the spear a few times and slightly adjusting the direction, the fat butterfly holding the spear began to continue chasing a certain unlucky guy who was still running away.

"Led away?" Ah Zi asked the assassin who suddenly appeared beside the carriage, "Which group do those unfortunate fools belong to?"
"Liuyun, the one leading the team is the painkiller that is attached to the little god of misfortune." I answered casually after looking at the materials on the carriage.
"Haha, poor Pianpian..." The fairy cat pretended to be sad for a moment, and then asked curiously: "Why is it the little god of misfortune?"
"Because he is 'self-destructive'." I spread my hands to her and said.
"Self-destruct?" The fairy cat seemed even more confused.
"Before the giant butterfly demon could catch up, I not only covered him with bombs out of brotherly love, but also gave him three sneak attacks."
"..."The fairy cat blinked hard and thought to herself: So it means being beaten up by one's own people.
"What a 'good brother'! Aren't you afraid that he will come back and bite you?" The cat made an expression as if he was about to faint.
"Of course we are good brothers. At least we won't drop anything if we are killed by our own people." I looked at the cat seriously. "So, based on the principle of keeping the good things within the family, neither he nor I would mind giving each other a chance."
All the Roses present rolled their eyes at me and used their thumbs and index fingers to express their attitude towards Yan's "brotherhood".
"Oh right!" After laughing and joking, the princess asked curiously, "Jianjia, how did you meet the second giant butterfly demon?"
"Ask him about this," Love Drowning Fish pointed at Long Ruowu who was watching the fun, "This knight's surname is probably Hua. He is very good at attracting butterflies. He was the first one to encounter the first giant butterfly demon."
"How should I know? The first time, I was sparring with you, and I ran into a giant butterfly right after I entered the woods," Long Ruowu looked at everyone innocently. "The second time, I was just helping Yanzhong carry some things, and who knew that another butterfly would follow the car while we were walking."
"At that time, more and more people were hunting butterflies, so Yu and I had to retreat to the woods. Who knew that when we saw the 'coachman' for the first time, we saw the butterflies behind the car the second time," Jianjia Cangcang looked at Long Ruowu with a smile and added, "Oh my God! You didn't see it. The speed of this knight's life-saving skill was amazing. He almost slid off the car. It was so fast that even the giant butterfly monster couldn't react..."
"Go, you two, male and female, can climb trees as fast as monkeys. Fifty laughs at a hundred..." The old face of the Dragon Knight turned slightly red, and he was about to get angry out of shame.
"Alright, alright. Brother Yun and the others will be here soon, so let's get ready." Sister A Zi clapped her hands, drawing everyone's attention: "Chen Zheng, what are you going to do with these materials?"
"These materials are not enough. We need to prepare more." I counted the gold coins in my belt and said to my sister.
"Isn't this enough? What are you going to do?" A Zi looked at me strangely.
"Haha, wise and great lord, do you still remember 'Rose Lake'?" I asked a question carefully.
"Of course I remember!" My sister raised her eyebrows and the corners of her mouth twitched. The corners of the other people's mouths also curled up a little.
Rose Lake, an artificial lake located west of Rose Garden, is one of the hot topics on the Magic Flag forum recently. It appeared because of four thieves and a prank.
It was an afternoon right after the Rose Garden was upgraded. Gao Lin and I were setting up a mine array on the outside of the west city wall, and Pretty Fruit happened to come to play. The three of us started competing in the speed of making bombs. One round took five minutes, and we earned one gold coin per round. At that time, no one noticed that the bombs were placed improperly. By the time we realized something was wrong, a small mountain of bombs had appeared beside us. This would have been fine as long as we spent some time to recover them. The terrible thing was that a big beauty suddenly jumped out from behind Pretty Fruit, tiptoed to the back of the focused little fox, and suddenly patted her. As a result, a bad prank caused a terrible disaster.
The startled Pretty Fruit subconsciously threw the bomb in her hand at my head. Because I didn't use the Firearms Master, the bomb didn't explode. My high agility made the system judge the attack as Miss. However, after being attacked, I also subconsciously made an evasive action - habitually jumping to the left. This jump was a good one, and I jumped directly into Gao Lin's bomb pile.
God knows how the system of "Devil Flag" makes attack judgments. The four of us were all sent back to the resurrection point, and each of us lost 2%. According to the fairy cat's description afterwards: First there was a loud bang, and then accompanied by vibrations, a beautiful, moderate mushroom cloud appeared in the west of the city. Then, under the gaze of all the members in the city, the west wall of the Rose Garden collapsed for more than 100 meters. Looking out along the gap, a large pit with a diameter of nearly 300 meters, a depth of about 2 meters, and black smoke appeared in front of everyone.
Not counting the loss of the city wall and some houses, the landslide alone directly caused the death of more than a hundred NPC guards on the city wall. After seeing the total amount of replenishment and maintenance costs, the beautiful Rose Lord went crazy and carried the Purple Cloud Sword to search the city for the culprits who immediately went offline when they saw that things were not going well. Coincidentally, the architect Tiechui was also online at the time. At the request of the lord, he immediately started to repair the city wall. However, after he activated the construction skill, an artificial lake was inexplicably built in the place that should have been restored to its original state. The honest architect's brain froze on the spot, and everyone who saw this result was dumbfounded. From then on, Rose Garden had another city gate, but if you want to get in, you have to be able to swim.
In the end, the lord had no choice but to spend money to rebuild several fisheries here. The captain of the guards who saw something of the situation persuaded the lord to dig a moat with the artificial lake. Of course, according to the principle of punishment for wrongdoing, the laborers who repaired the river were naturally the thieves who caused trouble.
This blunder was posted on the forum as a joke, and after laughing, everyone who knew about it became wary of the cumulative attack power of bombs. The originally inconspicuous thief also gradually began to be taken seriously .
"You're not going to use that method to blow up the butterflies, are you?" The princess reacted the fastest. When she heard about Rose Lake, she naturally thought of what I was going to do.
"Not only that, my lovely princess, think about that zebra, and then think about what's behind her. Wow, there are so many different species. Don't forget, our original purpose for coming here." Giving my wife a sweet smile, I told her my original plan.
The others were still a little confused, but Ye Liuli and Jianjia Cangcang showed an expression of "you are so vicious". Apart from the princess, they were the only ones present who had witnessed the "extraordinary" zebra and also knew the story of Rose Lake.
In fact, Yan's real target is those small monsters that follow behind the zebra and are not taken seriously by others. Just imagine what would happen if a nuclear bomb was suddenly dropped on the followers of the zebra? Oh, hehe...experience, equipment, gold coins...well, the Mountain Moving Art that drops might even become a deck of playing cards...
As for the Boss, it was purely a light that attracted moths. All the warriors were attracted by the cute butterflies and naturally did not notice Yan's "nuclear experiment".
To be honest, it's not that I don't want to fight the boss, but I know that in the current situation, the boss is not worth the loss. The second job has just been opened, and I am the only one who has succeeded in the job. But my profession is a technical one, so I can't even beat the monsters of the same level, let alone the boss. Therefore, for a long time, the main force of "Magic Flag" will still be those players who have won the first job. The early opening of the second job is probably just a marketing method used by Magic Flag Company to attract players.
The process of fighting the Beast God last time is still fresh in my memory. In my opinion, that is not called "fighting" at all, that is called "piling". Players are simply using experience points to pile up the Beast God, just like buying a lottery ticket. Everyone pays two dollars, but there can only be one winner in the end. Everyone is just chasing this illusory one. How many people died in the Beast God last time? Well, it seems to be more than 1,300, close to 1,400? So what happened in the end? On the surface, the warrior succeeded. He cut the last knife and was happily hit by the pie in the sky. But what is the truth? The trap inside has been dug out by me, a thief who got lucky, and he only got a piece of pie crust.
Yan is actually a very realistic guy. He always believes that it is better to have one rabbit in hand than to have a thousand sheep in sight. This utilitarian character is inevitably brought into the game, especially after choosing the thief profession, the technical play style often makes me think more realistically. Although sometimes I can't help but get confused and do some inexplicable things, most of the time, I am self-centered.
When I first saw Whisper in the Wind, I was overjoyed and almost thought that the Boss was in my pocket. But after thinking about it for a while, I found that my idea was naive. Under the current conditions, the princess and I would never be able to defeat a Boss in a short time. Moreover, Devil Island is not my backyard. People come and go. It is not prosperous but not desolate, and it is not remote. The lone colorful giant butterfly demon is a flying winged top-notch in everyone's eyes. Those who see the lone Boss will never say first come first served. In the end, it will definitely be like the last time we fought the Beast God, and a group of people will buy lottery tickets together.
I never thought I had the "talent" of being lucky. A 1% probability didn't mean anything to me. The goddess of luck couldn't always be behind me, right? Since I wasn't sure, I certainly wouldn't do something that was thankless. But it would be a pity to leave such a zebra that "happened" unused. When I turned around, I caught a glimpse of the water in the distance. So, a thief had a flash of inspiration, and a plan that was very in line with the "orthodox thief concept" was born.
"That's it. According to my estimation, all you have to do is focus on grabbing things later." While synthesizing the bomb, I explained my plan to everyone. Anyway, this plan is only applicable to special situations like this, and it can't be considered a unique secret.
“……” After hearing the whole plan, everyone fell silent and looked at me with strange eyes.
"It's really dangerous to be your friend. You have to sacrifice every time to earn some carrots..." After a while, Ye Liuli murmured.
"Jianjia, I shot him three arrows. Do you want to commit suicide now?" The fish who loves drowning suddenly looked at Jianjia very seriously and asked.
"Boss!" Long Ruowu took out the sacred gem I gave him, looked at it for a long time and then looked at me carefully: "Isn't what you gave me a bomb that looks like a sacred bomb?"
"I'm serious. Did you put the tarsal poison sand in the drink you offered me last time on purpose?" Fairy Cat pretended to be suspicious: "And you even blamed it on Qing afterwards. You are a man who is a bit of a tofu. Just confess it now."
“……”This time it was my turn to roll my eyes at the sky.
※※※
When the whisper in the wind heard my whisper, he almost burst into tears. He and Abai had circled the swamp for so many times that they didn't know how many times they had circled it. Even the World Marathon League was probably not as "enjoyable" as theirs. Now, the number of monsters hanging behind one man and one horse could almost be counted by the dozen, and the strange roars made him suspect that all the monsters on the entire Devil's Island might be following behind them on a trip around the island.
After receiving my secret message, the Zebra Warrior and his partner, in order to end this exciting parade as quickly as possible, took the spectacular and strange "tour group" and ran towards the coordinates I gave in an almost straight route. They were so excited that they didn't notice the flowers and plants on the road and the new members in the parade behind them.
I don't know if the Encyclopedia sensed my plan, but as luck would have it, the route of this pair of babies happened to pass through the open space where the giant butterfly monster was besieged, and they inadvertently included the giant butterfly monster in the team. The people who had just besieged the butterfly were naturally unwilling to give up and immediately chased after them. As a result, the huge group of monsters was followed by an equally huge group of people, and they all rushed into the woods filled with bombs to our amazement.
Less than thirty seconds later, the bomb exploded. An equally beautiful and moderate mushroom cloud appeared above the woods amid a deafening explosion. Countless white lights rose along with the mushroom cloud.
"It's so damn spectacular, it's like an atomic bomb!" It was the first time that Long Ruowu saw the superimposed attack of the thief's bombs, and it took her a long time to close her open mouth.
"Who said the thief's attack power is low? Looking at the situation, the power is basically at the strategic weapon level." The fish that loves drowning was also surprised at the wonder in front of him.
"Oh my God, there were probably at least hundreds of white lights flashing just now..." Sister-in-law Bowknot was obviously paying attention to another aspect.
"I don't think anyone can withstand that kind of explosion." Fairy Cat shook her head and said to me worriedly, "It's serious. You're in big trouble."
"Yes, Brother Yan, you are turning red now..." Ye Liuli stuck out her tongue at me.
Without anyone reminding me, I knew how fast my seniority was decreasing. I was the one who planted the bomb, and the system automatically assumed that I was maliciously PKing after killing someone. From the moment the mushroom cloud rose, red system prompts such as "You killed A Miao, your seniority is reduced", "You killed Leng Feng Piao Dang, your seniority is reduced", "You killed Huan Chi, your seniority is reduced" were scrolling in front of my eyes like a screen. God knows how many people died in that forest that no longer exists.
"Serious, what is your current qualification value?" Ah Zi couldn't help but frowned as she looked at her younger brother who was surrounded by red light.
After hearing what Ah Zi said, I pulled up the status bar with an unpleasant look on my face:
Name: Yan. Occupation: Assassin. Level: 70.21. Knight Order: Rose (Armed Officer). Seniority: 79526.
