“Shameless!”

“Despicable!”

Lil Man and Lil Man spat in unison.

“C’mon, if we don’t disassemble the boss, we won’t be able to beat them, okay? Fine, then one of you guys take the wheel, and shoot me instead.”

Li Yi leaped off the control platform and squeezed into the cannon bore.

Of course, the two women had fought through the Fiery Chariot Dungeon before. Once they gave it some careful thought, they immediately understood where Li Yi was coming from.

“I’ll do it!”

Lil Man volunteered and walked to the control platform, adjusting the cannon bore’s distance.

“Bang!”

There was a flash of firelight, and Li Yi the human cannonball was shot at the feet of the boss chariot. That shot… was off the mark.

“Sorry…” Lil Man covered her face with her hand.

Thankfully, Li Yi’s reflexes were fast enough. He activated the Rocket Propellant and ran back as quickly as he could. There was no way he could board the boss chariot by climbing it. The only way was to shoot himself up there with the cannon.

“One more time!” Li Yi crawled inside again.

Lil Man took a deep breath, calming herself down, and shot again.

“Bang!”

She shot Li Yi the human cannonball onto the boss chariot. It was a success!

Li Yi began to dismantle the boss chariot’s parts…

Since he was the only legendary Engineer in the game, he was several dozen times faster at dismantling the parts than other players were. All he had to do was touch them with his finger and then twist them slightly. Tanking the joint attacks of the players on the boss chariot, he forcefully took apart the vehicle.

“Violent Bear’s Protection!”

By the time he finished dismantling the parts, Li Yi’s HP had also more or less run out. However, he was not worried because one round of Violent Bear’s Protection was enough to refill all of his HP. The opposing players were so infuriated that they swore loudly at him.

Li Yi leaped off the boss chariot. There was a loud rumble behind him as the boss chariot began to destruct from within. Five seconds later, the ground was covered with debris and not one of the opposing players on the chariot had survived, they had all died with the destruction of the chariot.

Li Yi ran back, crawled into the cannon bore again, and yelled at Lil Man, “Next one!”

There were 6 boss chariots that the opposing players could ride. He had only destroyed one just now, so they were still a long way from victory.

“I’ll do it this time!” Lil Man’s eyes lit up and she rubbed her hands excitedly, demanding to change positions with Li Yi.

“You want me to shoot you?”

“Mm-hmm, bah! No, I mean, yes, no, yes!”

“So what if I shoot you once? It’s not like you’ll get pregnant!”

Li Yi snorted and crawled out of the cannon, getting onto the control platform.

“Lil Moon, you get into the other cannon bore. Your techniques aren’t as good as mine, so you’ll need to use twin flight on it.” Moonlight Ocean nodded and crawled into the other cannon bore. She was a lot more decisive than Lil Man had been.

“Twin flight, ready for take-off. Pay attention here, I’ll count down from three. 3, 2, 1, fire!”

“Bang! Bang!”

Li Yi shot twice consecutively, shooting both women at the same time. It truly was twin flight, and he was astoundingly accurate; They had just happened to land near the parts that needed disassembly as well.

“Bang bang bang!”

Li Yi did not sit about idly either. After he sent the two women onto the boss chariot, he also supported them with his cannon strikes from the back, diverting the enemy’s firepower.

Getting a Thief to dismantle the chariot’s parts was a flawless decision because Thieves could use Stealth. The opposing players could not even see them, and by the time they did, the chariot would more or less be in shambles already. When the two women leaped off the chariot, there was another loud rumble, and yet another boss chariot was destroyed.

“Hahaha, that was fun! Again, again, quick, shoot me!”

“I want it too…”

Just like that, the two women were hooked. They even took the initiative and asked Li Yi to shoot them…

“You really want me to shoot? Inside or on your face?” Li Yi said evilly.

“On my fa… Bah! You’re shameless.”

“Bang! Bang!”

The more shots rang out and the two women took twin flight once more…

This battle was an easy victory for them. Royal Blue Sky never stopped yelling from the start to the finish. His strategy was very simple. They just had to attack with all the power and break through one chariot after the other.

Of the 6 boss chariots, Li Yi, Lil Man and Moonlight Ocean finished off 3. The Platinum Hand members took care of the remaining three.

It was War God Clan’s loss!

When the large figure 6 appeared before their eyes, the entire Platinum Hand party cheered as one. The battle of tug-of-war that they had been struggling with for several days was finally over. They had 10,000 points, and could qualify for the finals!

Since Platinum Hand won and qualified, they were no longer eligible for the regular matches. Little Drunk Cat, who was currently in fourth place, only had one opponent now, and that was War God Clan!

“We won! We coordinated pretty well there, huh, Old Insanity? Hahahaha.” Mad Dragon gave Infinite Insanity a spirited high-five.

In the past life, the two of them were arch enemies who fought incessantly for several years. Li Yi could not help but shake his head and sigh. He had always wondered, just how did the two of them end up like that?

“Thank you, everyone, and thanks to our friend Dark Wing for his help as well.” Lil Man thanked them with a smile.

Li Yi gave Lil Man a smile and quit the party, leaving the area.

With Platinum Hand moving up the ranking, Little Drunk Cat had fewer enemies ahead of them now as well. This was beneficial for both of them. Otherwise, Li Yi would not have agreed so readily.

Of course, there was one more thing that Li Yi had been worried about, but he never knew how to mention it to Lil Man.

If Lil Man was the superstar Xu Man, then the incident of her suicide from the past life was going to happen at the end of this month. The brilliant superstar, as influential as a celestial empress, was going to crash to the ground and vanish from the living.

Even though Li Yi did not know how to bring up the topic, he had already made up his mind. It did not matter if Lil Man was Xu Man or not, either way, he was going to prevent that suicide from happening.

“Guild Master Dark Wing, why did you leave in such a hurry? I have a few tickets here for Xu Man’s concert, it’s happening at the end of this month. When the time comes, you gotta bring your little girlfriend along, got it?”

Lil Man messaged Li Yi directly and gave him the serial numbers for 10 of Xu Man’s concert tickets.

“Just me? Why are you so good to me? Could you possibly be harboring feelings for me?” Li Yi sniggered.

“Each member of Platinum Hand gets 10 tickets. And if you’re asking me if I have any feelings for you, you’ll know if you just listen Xu Man’s first new single released in March, tee-hee.”

“The first new single she released in March?”

Confused, Li Yi searched it up, but the result exasperated him. It turned out that the new song was titled “Get Away from Me”.

‘At the end of this month… The concert!’

Li Yi still remembered that it was precisely in the middle of the concert that Xu Man leaped from the backstage. At the time, countless Xu Man fans went insane. The sobs and wails permeated through the air, and several dozen fans even committed suicide on spot, so that they could accompany their beloved Xu Man…

Xu Man’s suicide had wide-reaching effects, and all sorts of investigations went on for years. However, the rumors were never given any definitive proof. It was clear to everyone that the truth had been swept under the rug, and this incident became the biggest regret in the hearts of her fans.

Li Yi brought the tickets to Jiaojiao, and she agreed without even thinking.

The reason was simple. Jiaojiao had always been Xu Man’s fan. Although she was not going to go crazy for Xu Man, she was very close to it. Right now, her biggest wish was to see one of Xu Man’s concerts live.

He still had many tickets left. After some thought, Li Yi sent them all to Chen Yang. There was not much point in keeping them anyway, so he might as well give them to Fatty to do as he pleased.

There were 13 days left until the end of the month, which gave him plenty of time to prepare.

Li Yi gave Shen Lang a call and asked him to investigate the background of the concert’s organizer.

“Small matter, leave it to me.”

Shen Lang went off on his investigation. Within 2 days, he had dug up all the dirt of the concert’s organizer.

Li Yi wired Shen Lang 20,000 bucks in real life currency as payment, so Shen Lang could not refuse it even if he wanted to. This was because Li Yi knew that talents like Shen Lang’s were not easy to come by, and there was no such thing as a free lunch. Shen Lang did not owe him anything, so if he wanted to make this relationship last, he had to make a show of his sincerity.

“Boss, if there’s anything else you need in the future, just tell me! I’ll do everything in my power!”

Li Yi was not prying into anyone’s secrets. If anyone else hired Shen Lang to investigate something like this, they would pay a few thousand, tops. Li Yi’s generosity, however, immediately gave Shen Lang the impression that he had found a good master.

As long as he did his job properly, Li Yi was not going to treat him badly. That was what Shen Lang was thinking now.

The information Li Yi held in his hands now was easy to find for now, but none of this could be found at all in the past life. All the information had been sealed tight, and he could not investigate it even if he wanted to.

Xu Man’s career was at the peak of its popularity, and she was not even 20 years old. Would a cheerful and energetic girl like her commit suicide out of nowhere? No way! There had to be some secrets there. That was the conclusion most people came to after Xu Man’s incident.

Investigating the organizer could help Li Yi solve this matter.

Over the past few days, the Little Drunk Cat Guild did not just waste their time, either. They fought against War God Clan and competed for the right to join the finals. Thanks to Li Yi’s participation, War God Clan stood no chance. They lost two matches in a row and gave up their spot in the rankings obediently, allowing the Little Drunk Cat Guild to reach the finals.

There were only 4 teams in the finals. The finals were to be held on the last day of the season, or in other words, at the end of this month. There was only one spot left open.

In the past life, Platinum Hand aimed for the spot of Seasonal Champion. Just as everyone thought they were going to win, it was suddenly revealed that the Platinum Hand party was disbanding, never to return…

It came without a word of warning or explanation. The Platinum Hand leader vanished without a trace, and the two members at the heart of Platinum Hand, Mad Dragon and Infinite Insanity, suddenly turned on each other. Other core members like Ye Yingbing and Lil Fox went solo, and they never joined any guild again.

Even though many things had changed with Li Yi’s resurrection, would these two things change?

‘The next guild to enter the finals would probably be the Dream Guild, right?’ Li Yi thought, scanning through his memories.

3 days later, the Dream Guild successfully reached the finals!

Just as in the previous life, the Dream Guild reached the finals. That did not change. What did change, though, was that in this life, the Little Drunk Cat Guild replaced War God Clan.

Li Yi’s solo Battle Points were head and shoulders ahead of everyone else, a whopping 7,000 points more than the person in second place. His party managed to reach the finals too, so all they had to do was wait for the finals to begin at the end of the month, and there they would decide the champion.

With these two major matters settled, Li Yi no longer had any worries. He headed to the Auction House where he bought the materials to craft Advanced HP Potions in preparation for his trip to the Western Continent, where he meant to search for the Wrath of the Stars.

“Holy Light Punishment!”

As soon as Li Yi teleported to Shattered Frost City’s Auction House door, he heard a familiar woman’s voice come from inside. This was immediately followed by a flash of white light and a scream. There was a thump, and someone seemed to hit the ground.

“The Little Drunk Cat Guild’s Fire Ice killed a newbie, how shameless!”

There was a scream from within the Auction House. Li Yi was slightly taken aback, and he quickly ran inside.
