Chapter 266: Battle Out of Spite

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation  Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Unending Unmatched was the chief main tank of Star Fire Guild and it was due to his efforts that the guild had successfully achieved the first kill of Fire Devil Dungeon’s boss.

Unending Unmatched was recognized and ranked second place in the top ten main tanks back in the past life, scoring a higher placing than Brother Windcloud Nine.

During Brother Windcloud Nine’s attempt to take down Shattered Frost City, it was Yang Xingchen’s orders forbidding any participation of guild members that prevented the eager Unending Unmatched from lending a hand.

Brother Windcloud Nine’s arrogance was all to blame. When Unending Unmatched saw what he spammed in the world channel, waves of anger flushed his Guild Master’s orders out of his head. He had then rushed by himself.

“Unmatched, I order you to return now!

“So you’re not gonna listen to me now, huh? For all that the guild has done for you, this is how you’re repaying us?

“Unending Unmatched! Don’t play dumb, answer me!”

Yang Xingchen bombarded Unending Unmatched with private messages, to which he did not reply.

Just outside of Shattered Frost City, several hundred corpses belonging to Western Continent players were spread out all around Unending Unmatched.

Many of the Western Continent players were not convinced by Unending Unmatched’s abilities, as such, they suffered the consequences.

Even with several hundred players launching a siege on him, they were no match against the Drain effect from the Blood Lord equipment set. Coupled with his skillful Blocks, the more severe the player’s attacks, the more he was able to Drain from them.

Several thousand men would not be able to defeat him, let alone several hundred.

“Step back!”

Brother Windcloud Nine ran out from the city riding on Cerberus, seeing this, the Western Continent players surrounding Unending Unmatched opened up a path for him.

Unending Unmatched snickered and barged towards Brother Windcloud Nine. To date, he did not possess his own battle mount.

Brother Windcloud Nine flung his arm to the back, “Step back everyone. This is a battle between us two. No matter the winner or loser, nobody is to meddle or you shall suffer my wrath!”

The Western Continent players retreated back immediately. Brother Windcloud Nine always kept to his word, a trait known to all the Western Continent players. Who would want to offend a moneybag? They would much rather curry favor over him.

Swoosh—

Brother Windcloud Nine transformed into a streak of golden ray, blitzing towards Unending Unmatched.

Charge landed squarely on Unending Unmatched, 3-second Disorient state!

Cerberus dangled its three heads, charging towards Unending Unmatched for a bite.

This was a Legendary-level mount. Not only could it increase its owner’s combat attributes, but it would also participate in the battle.

The 3-second Disorient state cost Unending Unmatched one-tenth of his HP. He managed to Block three consecutive times after he regained consciousness, his HP surged back up.

A battle between two main tank class was all about technique. Only an idiot would go about it without tactics.

The two figures began to flutter about, to the left, then to the right. They kept looking for any potential openings to exploit. If one party was striking over, the other would evade to one corner before assaulting the other while he was recovering from the previous strike.

The Cerberus’ special passive effect worked its magic. Every single time Unending Unmatched made it behind Brother Windcloud Nine, his attacks ended up in Misses.

It was a monster without any blind spots. This perfectly described Cerberus’s passive skill.

Unending Unmatched struggled to reduce half of Brother Windcloud Nine’s HP when a Holy Flash easily brought it back up.

Out of all the main tanks, the Vagabond was the most brittle of tanks, Armored Warrior was the strongest in defense while Paladin was the most shameless.

Brother Windcloud Nine was playing a Holy Shield Paladin tank. Not only did his defense match an Armored Warrior, but he also had a multitude of healing skills. Holy Flash and Holy Blessing were amongst the most bizarre of all instantaneous Holy Healing Skills. No matter the remaining HP, a single use would recover ones HP to full. The skill of which the Castellan’s wife used on both Castellans was the very same Holy Healing Skill.

There was still a cooldown period of 30 minutes though. Channeling times still applied to other healing skills. As long as they were interrupted on time, a shameless Paladin could still be defeated.

Brother Windcloud Nine had at least three healing skills while Unmatched Unending only had one interrupt skill with a cooldown of 10 seconds. Hence, he could only watch helplessly as Brother Windcloud Nine healed himself…

A Warrior main tank would not be proficient in healing. Brother Windcloud Nine soon had a grasp on how Unending Unmatched recovered his HP. He had Cerberus aid in attacks while he cautiously dealt with him.

Brother Windcloud Nine played it safe with each attack, not leaving any space for him to Block and heal. Although it progressed on rather slowly, Unending Unmatched’s HP consistently dropped. It was not long before it was reduced by more than half.

Miss! Miss! Miss!

Unending Unmatched was feeling the heat. He knew very well of Brother Windcloud Nine’s strategy, yet what was the point of knowing? For a main tank class to deal burst damage, Double Retaliation was the way to go. He was working on building up towards burst damage but Missed again on Double Retaliation, failing to achieve the combo…

Brother Windcloud Nine was not one to spend his several hundred million RMB in vain. Of course, he needed to show for it.

“Hellfire!”

Brother Windcloud Nine had been watching Unending Unmatched’s HP closely and when his HP had dropped below 8,000, he unleashed Hellfire — an attack that was impossible to block!

Unending Unmatched laid on the ground. His luck had turned for the worst when the helmet from his Blood Lord Equipment set dropped…

Brother Windcloud Nine went ahead and picked it up, letting out a roar of laughter.

The Blood Lord equipment set was extremely rare. It was a money-can’t-buy item.

“All hail mighty Brother Nine!”

The shouts of the Western Continent players thundered in the sky.

Unending Unmatched was defeated. This, to the Western Continent players was great news, but to the Eastern Continent players was a disaster.

“What’s the point in fighting them? If a sharp main tank such as Unending Unmatched’s no match for him, who else can defeat him?”

“We still have Archer God, Dark Wing.”

“Patooi! He had others defend the city yet he as the Castellan played no part. He hasn’t even shown up yet, Archer God, my foot!”

“Don’t you dare insult my idol! I will spam you in World for a month!”

“F*ck! I speak only the truth. If Dark Wing really is that good, why was he killed by Brother Nine then? Why isn’t he showing his face now? Is it because he’s scared?”

An argument had broken out in the Eastern Continent channel. There were some heated exchanges while some were even having a row. At the rate it was going, unification was out of the question.

“Cough, who’s Archer God? And who is this Unending Unmatched? Why is it that I, Leader Scum have never heard of them?”

While the Eastern Continent players were in a heated debate, Scumbag Wang made his appearance.

“Leader Scum, why doesn’t an extraordinaire like you challenge Old Dog? Get him again, we have your back.”

“Yeah, Leader Scum. We don’t have many in the Eastern Continent who are able to kill Brother Windcloud Nine. Who, if not you? It’s all you now.”

“That’s right, that’s right…”

This amount of boot-licking and flattery got into Scumbag Wang’s head.

“Let’s go, brothers. Set out to Shattered Frost City, let’s ravage some Old Dog meat.”

Outside Pinewood, a group of bandits had gathered and began to swarm out towards Shattered Frost City with their weapons swinging on top of their heads…

…

“You dropped the Blood Helmet, how do you expect to compensate this loss? Mofo answer me!” Yang Xingchen PM-ed Unending Unmatched a dressing down for losing the Blood Helmet.

Unending Unmatched finally replied, “I will compensate the Blood Helmet to the guild but I will still go after Brother Windcloud Nine!”

“Can you even kill him? Legendary-level mount, +14 equipment set. What do you have? Don’t get into your head that the Blood Lord equipment set would grant you immortality. That’s a set of equipments our brothers in guild painstakingly accumulated. You get to wear it because you’re good enough for it but don’t forget, you’re a main tank, so am I. And f*ck, I don’t even have a Blood Lord equipment myself.”

“Helmet! Will be paid to the guild within a month!” Unending Unmatched breathed the words through his teeth.

“Compensate? Are you able to? Anyone can give an empty promise, f*ck! Refusal to obey orders, acting on your own accord. Just what did Dark Wing give you that you’re helping him?”

“I’m not helping Dark Wing. Brother Windcloud Nine is an eyesore!”

“And I think you’re an eyesore!”

Unending Unmatched turned off the private messenger and unequipped all equipment on his body then proceeded to mail them to Yang Xingchen.

“I will return the Blood Helmet to the guild within a month. I’m sorry.”

Unending Unmatched equipped a body of blue-colored equipment and went straight to where Brother Windcloud Nine was.

“Where’s Blood Lord? Afraid you’ll drop it? Haha,” Brother Windcloud Nine Charged forward, with Cerberus as his attacking aid. In a mere minute, Unending Unmatched collapsed to the ground.

“It’s useless. Your technique’s fine but you can’t beat me. Even if you get up a hundred times, you’re still no match for me.”

Unending Unmatched did not let his words get into his head. He ran his corpse to return and continued his bid to kill…

This was why he had been coined as the Pursuing War God. He has quite a temper on him and could go on for days against Old Green back in the day. Why would he let go after a word from Brother Windcloud Nine?

Getting killed and getting back up on repeat. After an hour, Unending Unmatched dropped 5 levels.

“Brother Unmatched, don’t fight anymore. Going on like this is not the way to go,” Confused Fox could not bear to watch and sent him a private voice message.

“Unmatched, don’t do it out of spite. It’s not worth it, you can’t defeat him.”

A lot of people tried to talk him out of it but he kept banging his head against a brick wall. He refused to listen to anyone and would not stop until he killed Brother Windcloud Nine.

“You see that? Play smart in games. You ain’t good enough yet you keep sending yourself to death. That’s not cool, that’s just stupid.”

Outside Shattered Frost City, a group of bandits hid in the nearby moat. Scumbag Wang was dressed in a white Wizard robe. He was holding a kitchen knife in each hand, admonishing his subordinates.

“Leader Scum, why don’t you go and challenge Old Dog? You already agreed earlier in the regional channel. If you don’t show up, you’ll be the laughing stock,” A Dwarf player behind Scumbag Wang asked.

“What’s your name?”

“Leader Scum, I am Life’s A Silent Snow.”

“Attention!” Scumbag Wang yelled out, spasming the Dwarf player to stand up straight.

“To the right, march!”

“Leader Scum…” The Dwarf player was confused.

Scumbag wang stomped on his butt and balls, “March to find Fengxi. You have no brains.”

“Leader Scum? Oh Leader Scum? You were so quick to agree earlier. Where are you? Where did you go?” Indeed, there were voices looking for Scumbag Wang in the regional channel.

Scumbag Wang gestured at Lonely Perfume and he immediately took the cue, leaving a message on world channel.

“Leader Scum…His PC hanged.”
