Chapter 2011 The Fist King“s Metamorphosis

The Fist King was immediately surrounded by hundreds of attacks from almost fifty Immortal Cultivator players in twenty different directions.

Blades, bullets, acids, venomous arrows, magma, and frost close to absolute zero came at him one after another. A bloody mouth seemed to have been opened in the void and was about to swallow him brutally.

In order to heavily wound the leader of Liberty City, the Fist King had taken the slashes of the enemy’s swords dozens of times head on. The functionality of his iron body was already seriously affected.

The fatal ambush from behind further caught him unprepared. He could barely move.

At this moment, it was actually the assassins, or the Immortal Cultivator players, who were in conflict. Everybody was lunging at the Fist King and hamstringing each other openly or secretly.

“Get out of my way. This creep is mine!”

“After I reap the monster, I will complete the main quest perfectly and advance to the Black Island Research Tower as first place. Nobody can compete with me!”

“Hehe. I am going to be the next leader of the Yuwen family. Whoever stands before me, don’t blame me for not showing you any mercy!”

Li Yao’s soul keenly sensed the subtle spiritual waves wandering in the air, which were the ripples of the private talk among the Immortal Cultivator players.

It seemed to be a public frequency that involved a very mysterious skill of spiritual energy vibration and could deliver the ‘sound of silence’ to several kilometers away. All the Immortal Cultivator players and tourists could communicate with each other in such a way without being noticed by the sinners.

Naturally, they could not deceive Li Yao’s soul.

Over the past month, he had been studying the means of communication of the three Immortal Cultivator players in the Red Viper Squad and had long discovered the mysteries of the private talk. After cracking the special frequency of the Immortal Cultivators’ public channel, he could hear the ‘roars’ and ‘screams’ of the players easily.

It seemed that they were there for different trial quests for different purposes.

Naturally, ‘Fist King’ Lei Zonglie, as the warrior with the highest combat ability on the battlefield, represented the most ‘points’. That was why he became a common target, and everybody wanted to deal the final blow.

However…

Idiots, Li Yao thought coldly. Since you know he is the ‘boss’ of a ‘golden quest’, how can he be killed so easily?

As it turned out, all the players who jumped forward hit a nonexistent wall at the same time and were blown back in a clumsy and panicked way. The two players who reacted slower were immediately involved in the colorful smoke, before they were tossed out brutally in a bloody, mangled form together with their broken armor!

The bloody mist and the shattered bones spluttered everywhere, and the two Immortal Cultivators were killed on the spot without even letting out a cry.

This was indeed an extreme trial with a high death rate!

The Immortal Cultivators were as brutal to the ordinary people as they were to their own kind. They did not care about the casualty rate in their training and trials at all!

Sensing the killing intent that was becoming more and more intense in the smoke, and observing the gory outcome of their companions, all the players turned grave and began to make preparations.

The smoke gradually dispersed. ‘Fist King’ Lei Zonglie stood inside a steaming crater steadily with his hands behind his back, staring at the Immortal Cultivator players coldly.

The Immortal Cultivators had an entirely different vibe from that of the sinners. They could tread lightly and disguise it in peacetime, but now that they were exerting all their strength in such a large group, they immediately gave a feeling that they were not the same as the real sinners around them at all.

“So, my intuition was correct.” The Fist King slowly plucked the flying swords that had been stabbed into his body, kneading them into iron balls casually and tossing them away. “Long ago, I discovered that a lot of strange guys had shown up both on my side and Xiahou Wuxin’s. You do not look like thugs who have just distinguished themselves in the Land of Sins but reek of disgusting smells. Who are you scumbags exactly?”

Black Spear—the dark, muscular man in the Red Viper Squad—bumped his fists and roared, “Your death!”

His image and way of fighting were similar to the Fist King’s. So, he could not be overwhelmed by the Fist King’s dominance, otherwise he would not get a chance to fight at all.

“Hehe…” The Fist King chuckled in a low voice. Drawing out the last twisted flying sword on his body, he said as if he were speaking to himself, “According to the intelligence, countless assassins and mercenaries from the Valley of Thorns are lurking inside my camp and Xiahou Wuxin’s. You must be them. However, what is the Valley of Thorns exactly, which has apparently been manipulating the history of the Land of Sins from the shadows? Let me blow up your brains and look for answers in person!”

“Stop bragging!” Black Spear shrieked. “You were heavily wounded by Xiahou Wuxin’s full-strength blow first, and then you took the bombardment of so many of us head on. Your body must be riddled with holes and on the brink of destruction!”

“Yes.” The Fist King did not deny it at all. His metal lips curling into a cruel smile, he said, “So, let me switch bodies and fight you again!”

At that moment, an enormous crystal bomb seemed to have exploded below the Fist King’s feet. The ferocious wind and blast swept across the entire battlefield!

In the middle of the raging storm and sand, his broken, mottled iron body fell apart one piece after another like a withered slough!

“Well…”

All the players were dumbfounded, feeling as if their blood was freezing.

“The Fist King is transforming!” Li Yao exclaimed to the mental devil. “Your guess was correct. The guy truly has a second form. He indeed deserves to be the boss of a golden quest!”

After the smoke rose into the sky and the dust settled on the ground, what appeared in front of everyone was a ‘Fist King’ that was much smaller in size but even more agile and fierce!

He had been using a silver, glittering body almost four meters tall previously, and his body size was equivalent to a super-heavy crystal suit installed with reactive armors.

Nobody expected that a second body was actually hidden underneath the magnificent body.

It was a super-light artificial body only around 1.5 meters tall. Its surface was smooth, without any rune array or joint. The streamlined torso and limbs seemed to have been melted by waterdrops large and small. Emitting bright golden colors, it was natural and flawless.

Although the size had been reduced to one third, the bursting aura from the body was ten times more intimidating than the ‘first form’.

Li Yao’s soul almost saw a furiously burning torch whose flames hopped hundreds of meters into the sky trying to burn a hole there!

Under the watch of the flabbergasted Immortal Cultivators, the Fist King warmed up the brand-new artificial body unhurriedly before he fell on one knee, making the preparation posture of a sprint. He smiled and said, “Shall we begin?”

It was not a question but the horn of a massacre!

Before he finished the last syllable, a lot of players attacked the Fist King in the spirit of ‘better attack than be attacked’.

However, the Fist King had already turned into several dazzling streaks of gold brightness before their attacks arrived and appeared in front of almost ten Immortal Cultivators ‘simultaneously’.

It was the same heavy punches with the utmost masculinity as before, except that the force was three times greater than in the ‘first form’ and the speed five times higher!

The three players in the Red Viper Squad were bombarded by the Fist King in the first round. They barely had any time to summon their real crystal suits.

‘Black Spear’ punched back at the Fist King. His entire right arm exploded from inside to outside, and his arm bone turned into hundreds of fingernail-sized pieces.

‘Flash Point’ was about to activate his velocity that he had always been proud of when the Fist King opened his hand, grabbed his head, and threw him into another player brutally. The two players were almost ’embedded’ into each other.

‘Red Viper’, who had the highest Cultivation, released dozens of flames, only to be blown into nothingness by the Fist King’s one punch. She hurried to fall to the ground and fly backward, dodging the fatal, serial bombardments closely!

Shua! Shua! Shua!

Finally, some players could not withstand the high pressure between life and death anymore, summoning their real crystal suits.

Li Yao heard them cursing aloud in private talk. It seemed that such an action would seriously affect their ‘score’ and ‘rating’ in the trial.

If they had only used the magical equipment from the Land of Sins and did not expose any weapons from the Heavenly Rails, they would be able to accomplish a certain ‘achievement’, which would grant them a bonus.

But once they used the advanced crystal suits from the Imperium, their final score would be reduced to around sixty to seventy percent, depending on the enhancement that their crystal suit provided.

Protected and boosted by the high-level crystal suits, the players were like wolves who had grown their tusks again. Their confidence returned to them.

“Is it the legendary Cosmos Ring?” The Fist King’s gold fists were both smoking, like a volcano right before the eruption. The abrupt changes of his opponents made the fighting will beaming of his eyes even more intense than before. “So many of you boast Cosmos Rings and… glittering crystal suits. So, who are you scumbags exactly? And who do you think the Fist King is?”

In crazy roars, he lunged at the enemies again!

However, this time, the players, who did not pursue ‘perfect achievements’ anymore, were obviously much more difficult to kill.

Even if the Fist King could punch the enemy heavily with his iron fists, the enemy could offset most of the attack with the crystal suit that had a much higher performance. They were even capable of launching counterattacks.

In the blink of an eye, the Fist King dashed back and forth and blew up the high-performance crystal suits of almost four players. However, his immaculate body of gold was seriously wounded and dented, and the circuits and components inside were exposed and disrupted.

Boom!

When he squatted deeply again, ready to launch another sprint at the Immortal Cultivators, his body suddenly became blurred, as if he was moving at a high speed to dodge something. Then, his left shoulder blossomed like a metal bud, and his entire left arm was blown away!

It was not until this moment that a vague trace appeared in the air, implying that something similar to a bullet had just passed by.

“A sniper,” Li Yao mumbled. “One of the players has been lurking in the darkness and did not attack at all until this moment. He is an expert among experts and a most dreadful shooter!”
