《MMORPG: Martial Gamer》Chapter 886. Mai Lun's Speedy Growth
Advertisement
The crowd looked towards the direction of the voice and saw Wang Yu frown while looking at Mai Lun.
Though Wang Yu was a gaming newbie, he was the first player to ever confront an Ancient BOSS player. Hence, he knew a BOSS better than anyone else could.
In >, the BOSSES’ attributes and skills were not scary, what was scary was their intelligence and battling techniques.
Compared to other BOSSES of the same level, Ancient level BOSSES’ HP was not great. The only thing they had an advantage in was their independent AI system.
Those BOSSES who had an incredibly huge amount of HP were always defeated due to their lack of intelligence and their flawed battling techniques. Their powerful attributes could only contribute to additional few seconds of survival.
However, Ancient level BOSSES were completely different, these players were considered as smart NPC, hence the player’s traditional battling methods were of no use at all and they could only battle it hard like PVP.
Ancient level BOSS also had a scary speciality called battle growth.
Ancient level BOSS’s battling techniques were only at the standard of normal BOSS level and not too high-end at the start. However, as they battle on, they will adjust their battling techniques based on their opponent’s skills.
Hence, when battling this type of BOSS, it would be better to just use basic techniques and not show any special moves, because that would only make the BOSS become stronger even faster.
To be honest, Wang Yu did not know how intelligent Fearless was. Every player’s abilities were fixed, and no matter how much stronger they could get after applying techniques, there would be a limit as to how strong they could get. If they continue using this method to fight Mai Lun, it would only make Mai Lun even stronger.

“Holy Flame!”
Expectedly, right after Wang Yu finished his sentence, Mai Lun threw a Talisman onto the floor and set Spring Halo’s vines up in flames and released his feet.
Mai Lun learnt his lesson after escaping from the control and leaped into midair immediately.
“Truly a despicable fella!”
After getting scammed by Fearless thrice, Mai Lun was extremely cautious and deep in thought.
From these, we could tell the difference between BOSSES who had high IQ and BOSSES who did not. Normal BOSSES would just use force to overpower their opponent when faced with this situation, but Ancient level BOSSES would have found a smart solution to that immediately.
Now that Mai Lun’s feet were off the ground, no traps would be of any use anymore.
However, it was not a very smart move for Mai Lun to be in the air, because the mobility up there was much lower than on the ground and the players wanted that.
After seeing Mai Lun fly up, Fearless ordered another attack and arrows flew straight to Mai Lun.
However, little did they know that Mai Lun had the help of [Holy Soar] and could move like he was on land when in air. In fact, he could move even better.
He twisted and turned for a bit and dodged all the arrows.
“You guys deserve to die!”
This time, they had completely angered Mai Lun. Mai Lun roared and flew towards Fearless.
An elite BOSS would follow the hate system and attack the player who was the easiest to target. However, being a BOSS with high IQ, Mai Lun had his own way of thinking and could analyse each player from the battles and attack the player who had the most threat.
From the battle right before, Fearless attacked Mai Lun with tricks for a few times straight, hence Mai Lun targeted Fearless.

Mai Lun had a high flying speed and he reached right in front of Fearless within a blink of an eye. Mai Lun raised his hands and pressed it on Fearless’s forehead.
Fearless’ two invincibility skills were still in the midst of cooling down and had a low defence due to the nature of his job as an Armguard. If Fearless faced this attack head-on, Fearless would be half-dead even if he managed to survive and had the ability to switch between Blood and Magic.
“Ferocious Dragon Space Snapping Slash!”
Just when Fearless was about to take the blow, Boson shielded Fearless with his own body and the God’s Sword in his hand hit Mai Lun with a beam of bright light.
The [Ferocious Dragon Space Snapping Slash] was a highly ranked skill, especially when it hit its target in the air. Mai Lun attacked from top down, hence he did not have any time to dodge and Boson’s attack hit Mai Lun.
Being a Human figure BOSS, Mai Lun did not have a high rank like Beast BOSSES. Hence, after receiving Boson’s blow, he flew right out.
A BOSS being a BOSS, after receiving Boson’s huge attack, Mai Lun’s HP did not decrease much. He extended his arms and finished receiving the blow then floated with stability in midair.
Mai Lun was only stunned for a little while in mid air and dashed towards Fearless right away.
This time, the players already had precautions taken and Crotch Lord held a shield and gave a [Taunt] to Mai Lun after realising that Mai Lun had been targeting Fearless.
After being [Taunt], Mai Lun could not control his directions and started hitting Crotch Lord’s Shield.
Crotch Lord still thought that Mai Lun got tricked like how he did for previous times and drew his sword with the intention of stabbing Mai Lun when he was caught off guard.
However, Mai Lun flipped his palms before he hit Crotch Lord’s Shield and a Talisman flew out from his palms and pasted it on Crotch Lord’s head. Crotch Lord made a noise and then went silent.
Witnessing what just happened, Boson drew his sword and came to help, but Mai Lun gave him 3 slaps on the face through the air.
“Bang!”
A talisman hit boson’s forehead and Boson was being controlled just like Crotch Lord.
At the same time, Vain Glory’s [Shadow Chain Kick] had reached Mai Lun from behind.
“Boom!”
Mai Lun’s body shattered into pieces and shocked Vainglory. Right at this moment, Mai Lun’s real self appeared behind Vainglory and reached out his right hand and pressed a Talisman onto Vain Glory’s forehead. Vainglory fell to the ground miserably onto Crotch Lord.
Frost Blade and Darknorth Fisher who originally wanted to ambush Mai Lun stopped what they were doing immediately after witnessing what just happened.
After seeing how Mai Lun controlled three of Quan Zhen Sect’s best close proximity players, everybody was frightened and cold sweat dripped down the sides of their faces.
Sh*t, this BOSS had an alarmingly fast growth speed. Just a few rounds before this, Mai Lun was still a silly BOSS that fell into Fearless’s tricks, but now he seemed to have become a different person already. Fearless could feel the increase in difficulty.
Just when everyone was in shock, Mai Lun raised both his palms and aimed at the three immobile people on the ground, then shot out a blue and a red ray.

Obstinate Han
A power progression fantasy with a main character who trains constantly but who lacks purpose, direction, and motivation. The world he lives in, however, is not a peaceful one.

This story is a slow burn rather than a fast paced action/adventure, and is centered around the perspective of a main character who struggles with depression, apathy, anhedonia, and asociality. This world was doomed well before he arrived, and he knows it. Rather than following the traditional hero model, he just wants to train for its own sake, and to scrape out occasional moments of happiness in a ruined and dying world.
