Chapter 128: Immovable King
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
In his past life, there were ten main tanks who were most famous in Pantheon. Amongst them, four were from the Eastern Continent, another four from the Western Continent and two from the South. This Holy Shield Paladin of the human race was one of them. His ranking was one position higher than Yang Xingchen, placing him at number nine.
This person was called Brother Windcloud Nine. He was from the famous Windcloud family of the Western Continent. He was nicknamed the Immovable King.
As the Wizard class rose to heights, casting Forbidden Spells at the wave of their hand to vanquish hundreds and thousands of people was no mere feat. But if several thousand Wizards encircled a main tank class, yet was unable to defeat the tank and was in turn, defeated instead, then it was jaw-dropping.
Of course, even the mere mention of this encounter would sound unbelievable, yet the deed of taking down thousands of Wizards by a single person was achieved by Brother Windcloud Nine.
Li Yi had once exchange blows with this person but he fled halfway through the battle. The reason was simple. Immovable King was true to his name. He merely stood there and no matter how you enclosed him, the damage that was inflicted on him would not exceed his HP recovery rate. What was the point of fighting? You could not even wear him out.
With a +13 Impartial Patron Equipment set providing passive damage reduction up to 82%, an accessory with 50% increase on evasion and 50% on Parry, he never needed to use Block, you could come from any direction and he would still stand solidly like a rock. This was the Immovable King, Brother Windcloud Nine.
Brother Windcloud Nine’s main tank skills were ordinary compared to a hundred million main tanks but his highest grade equipment placed him above these hundred million, ranking him ninth in the top ten.
Although this Brother Windcloud Nine has not yet possessed that extreme damage reduction equipment as in the later stages of his past life, the enhancement level was definitely over +12 based on how sparkly his equipment was from head to toe.
Enhancing equipment may trigger hidden attributes regardless of their level. It was the same for a level 1 or level 100 equipment where the highest grade of enhancement was +16. Each successful enhancement from level 10 onwards would add 2%, 4%, 8%, 10%, 15%, and 25% hidden attribute respectively.
Though equipment enhancements took precedence over equipment levels, low-level equipment was merely a stepping stone to the majority of players. There was absolutely no need for enhancement as a supposed level restrains existed between equipment. A level 20 +16 enhanced equipment faced with a level 30 white-colored equipment without enhancement would suffer A 50% reduction in enhancement effect. The larger the gap in levels, the higher the reduction effect.
Similarly, when faced with different level monsters, the equipment’s enhancement effect would differ as well. With a gap above 20 levels, the enhancement effect would begin to lessen.
Only an oddball like Brother Windcloud Nine would enhance a low-level equipment. He was truly wealthy compared to Chu Tiange of Dark Empire.
“Howl—”
At the hint of danger, Violent Bear King ran over with an Enhanced Charge, ramming onto Brother Windcloud Nine.
As Li Yi was currently plagued with Life Sacrificial Curse, he dared not dismiss Violent Bear King. He had it follow close behind and this has proven to be a wise decision.

The damage did not go past a hundred with Enhanced Charge. Brother Windcloud Nine’s equipment was no joke.
Violent Bear King did a sweeping strike and missed. Berserk Stomped and missed. Clawed, but was Parried and did not sustain damage…
When Enhanced Charge’s 5-second Dizzy Mode was over, Li Yi had already Moonwalked ten meters away.
Shield Impact was similar with Warrior’s Muscle Rupture in which Slow effect would last for 15 seconds.
It was crucial not to allow the melee class to close in during PK, even so now that Li Yi could not use any class skills. If Brother Windcloud Nine was in close proximity, he would be doomed.
The moment Brother Windcloud Nine’s Dizzy Mode was lifted, he sprinted towards Li Yi, ignoring Violent Bear King’s clawing and gnawing.
5 second was still on the clock for the Slow effect when Brother Windcloud Nine charged forward. Li Yi did not have any other choice apart from casting Bear King’s Protection.
“Violent Bear’s Protection!”
Violent Bear King tossed out a golden glow to envelope Li Yi when Brother Windcloud Nine’s hammer came into contact.
“Bang!”
[-97]
Brother Windcloud Nine was stunned as if he could not wrap his head around the meager damage he had just dealt.
Li Yi held a Fine Gold Longsword with both his hands and slashed at Brother Windcloud Nine to take advantage of the moment. It was a direct Critical Hit, taking Brother Windcloud Nine’s HP by 113.
“Bang!”
Fine Gold Longsword’s additional Dizzy effect was activated and Brother Windcloud Nine fell into another Dizzy spell.
Li Yi shifted to the back of Brother Windcloud Nine for another jab, reducing his HP by 83.
As soon as the Slow effect had fallen off, Li Yi fled immediately. After two attempts of probing, he knew that victory was out of his hands if he were to PK with Brother Windcloud Nine without any class skills.
He was not the type to fight an uncertain battle. Retreat!
“You piece of trash that only kills alt accounts. Don’t run if you have balls!”
“Save your breath, catch me if you can!”
Brother Windcloud Nine lugged his hammer and pursued from behind. Li Yi ran for his life. Both parties could not use CC so no one had the upper hand.
Holy Shield Paladins were well-known for being short-legged. Apart from the earlier Holy Shield Pursuit, they possessed no far-ranged skills.
A Paladin in armor was no faster than an Archer in leather. Moreover, Li Yi was equipped with a pair of uber legendary footwear.
Li Yi activated his Fiery Boot’s special skill and soon he could not catch a glimpse of Brother Windcloud Nine behind him. He darted a distance before receiving a System Notification.
[You have left the battle.]
He was finally safe.
Li Yi summoned Crimson Tiger King and went full speed ahead.
“The archer on Crimson Tiger King from the Eastern Continent, Dark Wing, right? Turns out to be a trash that kills alt accounts, haha, such an eye-opener.”
Brother Windcloud Nine lashed his tongue on Li Yi in the world channel. It instantly created a great stir.
No matter what, Li Yi was an eminent figure now and it was most fundamental for public figures to have their own fan base.
“M*th*rf*ck*r c*nt, you must be blind to say my Wing Wing killed an alt account? Don’t spread lies!” A female player that went by I Love Wing Wing shot a reply, cussing back at Brother Windcloud Nine.
“That’s right. I’ll believe it if you’re an alt account murderer but to say Dark Wing killing alt accounts, isn’t that bullshit? He’s a big shot, why would he wanna do something like this? What a joke,” A player called Lil Pig relayed his opinion.
Soon, it was bustling in world channel.
Players of the Eastern Continent vied to speak up and make their position clear, demonstrating skepticism and anger towards Brother Windcloud Nine’s words.
“That trash killed three alt accounts that weren’t even passed level 10 in the Western Continent. One of them is my wife. Old Nine never tells lie and this is the truth!”
“F*ck off. Killed your wife? Why don’t you just say he killed your mother? Bah! There’s really no shortage of jealous ugly mutts,” The female player, I Love Wing Wing, was forceful in response.
Just one word from Brother Windcloud Nine and immediately over ten retorts had appeared in unison. The more that one was fuming, the easier it was to make improper remarks and true enough, Brother Windcloud Nine made one.
“I used to be quite fond of the Eastern Continent, unlocking first kill records higher than ours. But now I see that you are all just a bunch of *ss-w*p* b*tch*s!”
“M*th*rf*ck*r, may your family be slaughtered, your wife gang-raped, your mother violated… Your siblings all gone and you’re left selling your *ss…” I Love Wing Wing went completely out of control.
“Of the world’s idiots, Old Nine from Windcloud takes the cake.”
It was total chaos. Everyone was still repressing their emotions but once out of control, the words became extremely ugly.
If you cussed me, I’ll return it ten-folds. Go on, one shoutout in world channel cost 100 Gold Coins. Ten shoutouts and the Gold Coins would double in price. In a short span of half an hour, a total of several ten thousand Gold Coins went down the drain.
Li Yi had already escaped to the Abyssal Canyon Crevice by now. Of course, he saw the messages on the world channel but he did not reply. He was red in the face though…
If it were not for the immobility of his class skills, he did not have to resort to fleeing. Killing alt accounts, was a misunderstanding, err… This matter could not be explained. Well, there’s no point thinking about it now.
No matter what, he had achieved the purpose of him coming to the Western Continent and completed the quest.
Flipping Darwin’s Diary open, it not only documented Darwin’s admiration towards Margaret, the whole story on how Darwin became a Curse Priest was mentioned.
After going through Darwin’s Diary, the System displayed the following quest.
[Quest Title: Evil God’s Deeds]
[Quest content: Head to Curse Land and search for new clues from Cursing Disciples. Character has to reach Level 45.]
Li Yi was currently Level 43. He was short of two levels to continue the quest. Well, it could not be helped. This quest would be put on hold for the time being.
“Ribbit—”
Ice Toad King leaped with all its might, jumping over the 40-meter Abyssal crevice and safely returning to the Eastern Continent.
“Brother Yi, where are you?”
Just then, Li Yi received a voice message from Chen Yang.
“What’s up?”
“I met with a boss in the Western Continent. No one’s going at it and I can’t defeat it. Sad.”
“What’s the level of the boss?”
“A Level 40 boss. His name is Alaska the Defector.”
“Wait for me, I’m coming!”
Li Yi was struck the moment he heard the name. He turned Ice Toad King around to leap back to the Western Continent.
“My coordinates are 322311, 123456.”
Switching to Crimson Tiger King, Li Yi rode towards Chen Yang’s location.
Alaska the Defector was quite the boss. He would not spawn at a fixed location but would instead spawn anywhere on the world map at random.
It was possible to spot him in any location of the four continents, aside of players’ residences. As he was a defector, his trails blazed the four continents.
This boss was rare and precious. He would only spawn once anywhere from half a month to a month interval of time in reality. Each time, his appearance was no more than five hours. It did not matter if anyone killed him, once the five-hour was over, he would disappear.
Li Yi’s Arrow Crafting Skill was long upgraded to Intermediate Level. He has already mastered Beginner-Level and Intermediate-level Flame Arrow Crafting Tome. The only thing he was lacking now was collecting materials in full.
The materials for Flame Arrow were a great deal. Li Yi has spent ages collecting and now was missing a Fire-scale Crystal Jade.
Fire-scale Crystal Jade was dropped by Level 70 monsters. It was incredibly tough to chance on them at this level but Alaska the Defector has a high drop rate on this.
Alaska the Defector does not drop any equipment. Instead, he dropped various rare and precious materials. Fire-scale Crystal Jade was a guaranteed drop. This was also why Li Yi was very excited.
If he could take down Alaska the Defector, he could forge Flame Arrows!
“I’ll be there in ten minutes. Try to delay him and don’t let him escape!”
“Consider that done!” Chen Yang responded.
