《MMORPG: Martial Gamer》Chapter 1174. Game of Snake
Advertisement
Looking at this situation, Wang Yu quickly pulled Shroom Devil King into the temple.
What a joke. Even if they were not all level 100 monsters and were just a bunch of wild dogs, with so many of them, Wang Yu was helpless. They did not dare to charge through this situation so they could only obediently stay in the safe temple.
“What should we do now?”
Seeing the situation outside, Shroom Devil King was scared to death. She had been playing the game for so long but she had never seen so many monsters.
Now that outside the temple was so tightly guarded, Shroom Devil King placed all hope on Wang Yu.
It was safe in the temple but they could not stay there forever. Won’t that become a prison? This was just a game. There was no need to end up in this state…
“I don’t know too…”
Seeing Shroom Devil King ask him, Wang Yu also spread his forearms in hopelessness.
After all, Wang Yu always liked to use violence to resolve problems. Such intellectual things were not Wang Yu’s forte. With so many people after them outside, Wang Yu naturally did not have a good idea.
Usually, when dealing with an NPC, Wang Yu could wear a mask to conceal his identity then escape but now, the aggro was on him so the only way for these troops to leave was to transfer the aggro onto someone else.
“Right, transfer aggro!”
At this thought, Wang Yu was happy then quickly said, “Don’t you have a rat? Use it to lure these guys away.”
“Lure them away?” Shroom Devil King pointed at the countless troops outside and said, “This rat only works for five minutes. In five minutes, how far can it lure them?”
Indeed, based on the scale of monsters outside, five minutes was at most just enough to make them turn around and by then, their attributes would increase by 20% and be tougher to deal with.

“Luring would only last for five minutes but if we changed the target?”
Wang Yu rubbed his chin and looked at Shroom Devil King up and down.
Shroom Devil King trembled then quickly yelled, “You wish!”
Damn it, she knew how deep the aggro Wang Yu had with these monsters. It was fine if she died just once as she did not need that XP but if they chased her all the way, she would be killed at least eighty times. Wasn’t that too much?
Sin City’s culture was very likely influenced by the monsters here.
“What are you thinking of!” Wang Yu hit Shroom Devil King’s head and said, “Do you think I, Iron Bull, will betray a friend?”
Shroom Devil King rubbed her head then side-eyed Wang Yu and asked, “Then how can you transfer the aggro?”
Just then, Wang Yu took out Hermit’s notebook, passed it to Shroom Devil King and said, “Hold on to this book.”
“What… What do you mean?” Shroom Devil King looked perplexed.
Wang Yu explained, “My target is this book, and I’m the target of those out there. If I die, I will drop this book so now, I’m transferring my target to you then I will lure the monsters outside away. Their aggro is on me now so take the chance to escape, understand?”
“Erm…” Wang Yu’s tongue-twisting words confused Shroom Devil King so she paused for a long while before taking the book. As though she understood, she said, “I think I do, anyway, I’ll take this book back to the city.”
“Smart kid!” Wang Yu nodded satisfactorily then stood up and was about to leave the temple.
“Hold on!”
Just then, Shroom Devil King stopped Wang Yu.
“Why? Is there anything you don’t understand?” Wang Yu turned and asked.

“No…” Shroom Devil King blushed then passed the remaining Mechanical Rat to Wang Yu and said, “Take this. Five minutes is not a lot but at least it can help you a bit.”
“Thanks!”
Wang Yu did not reject her. He took the Mechanical Rat and placed it in his bag then took out the red scarf and walked out of the temple decisively.
Shroom Devil King watched Wang Yu’s disappearing back view then softly said, “See you in the city…”
…
While they were hiding for this short while in the temple, more monsters gathered outside but luckily, the number of monsters stopped increasing.
It seemed like the system had its limit, at least it was not ridiculously shameless.
Once Wang Yu left the temple, the ready monsters stared at him and instantly, Wang Yu felt the hatred in tens of thousands of eyes.
Honestly, he had offended so many enemies for this quest but Wang Yu did not feel bad. Instead, he felt accomplished.
It was no wonder Quan Zhen Sect were so fearless and found trouble here and there. Being the public enemy did feel quite good.
Of course, now was not the time to be proud. After leaving the temple, Wang Yu did not say anything. He spread his wings and flew into the air.
Seeing Wang Yu was about to fly away, the troops on the ground also spread their wings and flew up. Instantly, the sky fell dark.
Zhuangzi said something wise about flying due to anger and turning own’s wings into clouds. It aptly described the current scene.
After flying into the sky, he did not have the temple’s protection so the monsters came for him in all directions.
Wang Yu smiled upon seeing them, then in an instant, he dropped five metres down then soared down. Using the time without enemies, he charged out of the troops surrounding him. The countless troops could not stop in time so they clashed into one another, causing a chaotic scene.
Soon, Wang Yu spread his wings then as the troops were in a mess, he flew to the temple on the ground.
These troops were brainless system AI so now, they only focused on the target with the aggro. Hence, after the mess, they recovered into their formation and soared downward to chase him.
In a while, the troops were closely behind Wang Yu above the temple.
Wang Yu calmly brought the troops circle a round around the temple.
This proved that the one being chased had the initiative so when his speed was slower, circling buildings were more useful than brainlessly charging around.
As there were too many monsters after him, they would instinctively line up when circling around the building so those behind Wang Yu were in a line just like a game of Snake.
Wang Yu circled down the temple and the ‘Snake’ behind him turned slightly only but once Wang Yu lowered himself again, the Snake’s head bumped into its own body and the monsters were in chaos once more.
“Hehe!”
Wang Yu chuckled. After keeping his wings, he landed stably with a [Thunder God’s Stomp].
After disturbing the troop’s encirclement, the God of Devils Fortress was flattened. Wang Yu did not hesitate to activate his qinggong then disappeared along with the countless troops.
Seeing Wang Yu bring the troops away, Shroom Devil King then dared to come out of the temple and activate her [Stealth] and walked towards the supply route entrance.

The Long and Exciting Life of Kreet the Kobold (Life 2)
Kreet was originally a D&D character. Life 1 was essentially her backstory. Life 2 picks up just after the events of the D&D campaign in the Underdark. At first you won't recognize the characters, but bear with it for a couple chapters and the few important points will be revealed. Also I stole a player's character (with his permission!) in the form of Sigmundurr. Also, unlike Life 1, I'll be posting this slowly over time. Right now I'm writing around chapter 20 and I suspect I'm only halfway. Tone may be a little different. ( Cover art by KuroNeko I'm pretty sure!)
