Chapter 13: Block My Staff Before You Talk

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Looking at these people, Mo Fan could not help but find it strange.

Why were they looking for him?

Could it be that these people knew his identity as a scarecrow monster?

It should not have been possible.

Even if the Human Skin failed back then, all that they saw was a figure that seemed to be born from the fusion of a scarecrow and a human being.

It should not be possible for them to think that he was the scarecrow that killed them.

“Brother Bunao Biaoyin, we saw that you were alone, so we wanted to form a team with you to fight for the Welfare Boss.”

I Am Gray Wolf smiled sheepishly and explained his purpose for following him.

The three people behind him directed a rather expectant gaze at Mo Fan.

Mo Fan was stunned when he heard his words.

He thought these people knew his true identity, but he did not expect it to be a false alarm.

“Humph! Form a team with me? Are you not afraid of offending Proud World and Blue Ocean?”

Mo Fan smiled and asked playfully.

“Brother Bunao Biaoyin. Since we came here to look for you, we’re not afraid of Proud World and Blue Ocean. We even have a grudge against Night Rain.”

I Am Gray Wolf immediately replied.

“Yes, yes, yes. Brother Bunao Biaoyin became famous after the battle outside the beginner village. We are your loyal fans!”

I Am Bald Qiang and the other two nodded in agreement with their eyes shining.

Mo Fan looked at them.

But he was not happy that they were looking for him to form a team.

Instead, he frowned.

Why did they have to look for him at this time, when they were about to fight the Boss?

They knew that his ability in battles is off the charts, did they come here to take advantage of him?

How could it be that easy?

Mo Fan turned to look elsewhere and waved his hand.

“I’m sorry, but I don’t accept underlings for now! You guys can leave!”

I Am Gray Wolf and the rest were dumbfounded when they heard Mo Fan’s words.

What the heck?

They originally wanted to approach Mo Fan with the excuse of teaming up to fight the Boss, but they did not expect to be dismissed so easily!

“Brother Bunao Biaoyin—”

“Don’t talk anymore, go away!”

Mo Fan stopped I Am Gray Wolf from speaking and left.

Seeing Mo Fan walk away, the four of them were rendered speechless.

“I even wanted to give you this special equipment! Sigh…”

I Am Gray Wolf glanced at a particular piece of equipment in his backpack.

Then, he shook his head.

“Brother Wolf, are you going to let Bunao Biaoyin walk away like this?”

“That’s right. What about our mission?”

“If only I could say it directly, it wouldn’t be so troublesome!”

“We can’t find the old man who gave us the mission either.”

“I thought I could complete the mission easily. Who knew that it would be such a hassle?”

I Am Bald Qiang and the others complained.

“Alright, if we can’t do it this time, we just have to try again next time. There’s no time limit for this mission anyway.”

I Am Gray Wolf sighed.

“Okay, since we’re already here. Let’s go and look for the Newbie Welfare Boss. What if we met one?”

I Am Happy Sheep suggested.

“Alright, let’s go!”

Once his words fell, their group left in a different direction.

…

When Mo Fan realized that no one was following him, he started to relax.

Because I Am Gray Wolf and the others came with no animosity, Mo Fan did not kill them.

After all, one should not attack someone that wasn’t hostile.

Although he was a wild monster, he still had some humanity in him.

Even though there were no rules to speak of in this game, he had to have a bottom line.

His former style of killing everything around him was no longer suitable for his current gaming environment. As Mo Fan continued to climb up the mountain, the surrounding vegetation slowly disappeared as it was replaced with huge rocks and sand that seemed to be endless.

He turned around and looked into the distance.

The movements of some players and Bosses could be seen.

He was not at the wrong place indeed!

Mo Fan looked at the bushes below and realized that there were quite a few Newbie Welfare Bosses that spawned.

Many players were already fighting such Bosses.

After observing for a while, Mo Fan found a place with few players and rushed over.

He found a Boss that no one was fighting against.

He crept up behind the Boss and took a closer look.

[Newbie Welfare Boss (Level 10)]

[Health: 500,000/500,000]

[Attack: 1-1]

[Defense: 0]

[Aggro Resistance: Attacking the boss will not generate aggro, the boss will only attack the nearest enemy.]

[Normal Attack Resistance: All normal attacks will deduct 1 HP from the Boss. Skill attacks and special attacks can deal their usual damage.]

[Instant Kill Resistance: Dealing a large amount of damage in a short period of time can increase the Boss’ HP, up to 10 million HP.]

[Ownership Resistance: The ownership of the items dropped by the Boss is not protected by the system. All players can pick them up.]

After staring at the Boss for two seconds, the details of the Boss appeared next to its portrait.

As expected of a Newbie Welfare Boss, he did not even see this kind of welfare function when fighting Chrystem. If he wanted to check the details of the monsters, he would have to learn specialized inspection skills.

The Boss’ HP was five times that of Chrystem, but its attack was very low.

It only dealt a small amount of damage. Any average player could tank it.

However, the boss had four passive skills.

The first skill was that no one could taunt the boss.

It ignored aggro and would fight whoever was near it.

With the Boss’ attack power, this skill could be ignored.

The second skill was more interesting.

At this stage of the game, most players were still below Level 10. Reaching Level 10 was a prerequisite for Class Advancement. In short, these players couldn’t learn any skill. Most of them used normal attacks in battle.

In other words, each of their normal attacks could only deal 1 point of damage to the boss.

As for special attacks, they were even rarer.

Mo Fan’s current special attacks came from his bloodlines.

They were the scarecrow’s and chrysanthemum spirit’s bloodline talents respectively.

Mo Fan did not know if the other players had several talents like him.

He would have to find someone to ask.

The third skill was probably prepared against future high-level players.

It was to prevent them from insta-killing these Bosses in the beginner village.

The fourth skill meant a free-for-all environment.

In other words, one might not be able to get the equipment dropped by the Boss even if one landed the final blow to it.

It was equivalent to saying, ‘finders, keepers’.

Noticing all of these, Mo Fan could not help but sigh.

Such a Boss would generate an overwhelmingly huge PK environment!

How was this a Welfare Boss?

It was simply a trigger to create player conflict among the newbies!

Mo Fan could already imagine the scene of these newbies killing each other.

If they wanted equipment, they would have to fight a Boss.

But if they killed a Boss, yet were not able to pick up the equipment dropped by that Boss, they were bound to be furious.

It was natural for them to be unhappy with the players that managed to pick up those items.

Then, as long as anger existed…

A fight was bound to happen.

The guilds with huge player counts would usually clear the area before engaging the Boss. But no one could guarantee that a player or two would not be able to skip past their encirclement to steal an item from the Boss that they had just killed.

If a player managed to steal a dropped equipment, then a bloodbath would definitely happen.

In addition, considering that a player could only deal 1 point of HP in damage from their normal attacks. Killing the Boss was not something that any guild could do in a short amount of time.

As a result, there were bound to be more participants which could easily lead into another PK scenario.

“This is a good opportunity for me!”

When Mo Fan thought of this scene, he could not help but smile.

He loved PK.

The refreshing feeling of farming players outside the beginner village still lingered in his mind.

“Let’s try taking down this Boss first!”

As he spoke, Mo Fan swung his staff and charged towards the Boss.

…

After fighting for more than two minutes, he only managed to deal over eight thousand damage to the Boss.

If he wanted to kill this Boss alone, he would need at least two hours.

Therefore, fighting alone was simply a waste of time!

Mo Fan immediately stopped attacking and left the Boss’ attack range.

This boss was quite far away from most players, so they could not find it in a short amount of time.

Mo Fan did not hesitate and ran towards the crowded area. His goal was to go to the Welfare bosses that were being collectively attacked by a large group of players.

…

When he arrived at the place where the other players were fighting one of the Welfare Bosses, he realized that the players were fighting among themselves everywhere.

The situation was simply a mess.

Most of the Welfare Bosses had low HP remaining, but not many people fought them.

Just as he had guessed, these Newbie Welfare Bosses were great triggers for PK.

In this case, the Boss would go to the stronger player.

The PK scene that was currently unfolding looked grand and impressive.

Roars, screams, and the crisp sounds of wooden sticks colliding against each other resounded throughout the entire battlefield.

“People from the Brilliant Guild, come here and fight!”

“Stop fighting! All of you, get lost!”

“Gosh, members of the Roaming Wolf, do you think that I’m easy to mess with?”

“Hemorrhoid Fish? I’ll remember you!”

“Brother Three, quickly bring people over here to support us. There are too many of them! We can’t take it anymore!”

“Bullsh*t, you’re allowed to steal the boss, but we can’t? What kind of logic is that?”

“Kill them!”

…

Mo Fan looked over and saw a large number of corpses lying on the ground.

The PK situation was simply tragic.

But when Mo Fan saw what was happening, he immediately sneaked in and specifically targeted the players who were on the brink of death.

[Player Unboiled Chicken (Level 7) has been killed. Obtained 552 Spiritual Energy Points, 1 Human Bloodline Fragment (Grade 0), 1 Star Fragment (Star Level 0), and 1 Monster Reputation Point.]

[Player Burning Chest Hair (Level 6) has been killed. Obtained 467 Spiritual Energy Points…] Points

[Player Smelling Your Feces (Level 6) has been killed….]

…

Now that the levels of the average players had increased, the amount of Spiritual Energy that he could obtain was much higher than before.

In addition, a player’s HP was much lower than that of wild monsters at the same level.

Furthermore, Mo Fan’s attacks were stronger, so they were killed rather quickly.

It did not take long for him to kill 100 people!

Looking at his rising Spiritual Energy, Mo Fan could not help but laugh wildly in his heart.

“Hahaha, it still feels better to kill players!”

[Player Cheating Scholar (Level 6) has been killed….]

“Hehehe! This feeling…”

[Player Death Means Unwashed Panties (Level 5) has been killed….]

“This feeling~”

[Player Arrogance Beneath the Nine Heavens (Level 6) has been killed….]

“How incredible!”

[Player Promised Brilliance (Level 7) has been killed….]

“Awesome!”

As Mo Fan continued to kill, more and more corpses fell under his staff.

Finally, a big shot discovered him.

“Bunao Biaoyin?!”

Berserk Wolf rushed in front of Mo Fan and shouted.

When the surrounding players saw this, they immediately ran away.

It seemed as though they were afraid of Berserk Wolf.

When Mo Fan saw the other party, he was astonished.

This Berserk Wolf was currently ranked first on the Level Ranking Board, he was Level 9 at the moment.

He was also the current leader of the Roaming Wolf Guild.

The level rankings were constantly changing.

Berserk Wolf was a player who appeared on the rankings only half an hour ago.

He probably hid his name from the rankings before coming out when he was already high-leveled.

“Who cares who you are? Block my staff before you talk!”

Mo Fan was not frightened by this fellow’s name at all.

Instead, he struck out with his staff.
