Startled, he turned around to see a player who looked to be around eighteen or nineteen years old, holding his forehead and sighing in frustration over the arrow that had just missed its target.
However, Yi Tianchen couldn't help but feel a jolt as his gaze fell upon the weapon in the player's hands.
It was a crossbow, not a bow!
In the game setting of Zero Era, crossbows are classified as heavy weapons, while bows are considered light weapons. Though they may appear similar, there is a fundamental difference between them: the former emphasizes power and lethality, while the latter focuses on agility and precision.
Like all heavy weapons, crossbows require a significant amount of strength. Since this archer was using a crossbow, it was evident that he had invested heavily in strength, possibly even maxing out his strength points.
Indeed, many players opt for heavy weapons in pursuit of high damage. However, this is rare among archers, as the archer class excels in Agility. An archer leaning towards strength would inevitably sacrifice precision and Speed.
Undeniably, this archer was quite peculiar!
Yet it was precisely because this guy had chosen the strength route that the arrow had merely quivered in the tree trunk instead of piercing Yi Tianchen's body.
Given this situation, could Yi Tianchen simply let this person go?
Of course not. To put it bluntly, Yi Tianchen's current predicament made him a target for everyone. This guy must have recognized Yi Tianchen's identity to have acted so suddenly. In other words, there were likely many players rushing toward this location right now.
Therefore, it was imperative to act swiftly!
With that thought in mind, Yi Tianchen immediately sprang into action. As grass flew around him, his Wolf Demon Boots crushed countless blades of grass as he soared forward with Wild Fury in tow.
"Uh... no greeting at all!"
The archer suddenly snapped back to reality and uttered something that made Yi Tianchen want to facepalm, as if he had arrived in such a grand manner.
However, this archer dared to seek out Yi Tianchen alone; he was certainly not an average player. As Yi Tianchen approached rapidly, the archer chose to retreat and used the trees as obstacles to divert Yi Tianchen's attack route, intending to employ a kite strategy to control the situation.
But he overlooked a fatal mistake: the kite-flying mode was only suitable for players with high Agility, high Speed, and high precision. The guy in front of him clearly fell short in these areas; the moment he chose to wield a crossbow as his weapon, he should have realized this.
His Speed was even slower than Yi Tianchen's by half a beat...
"Whoosh..."
The feathered arrow shot through the air, trailing fire, making it particularly striking in the already dim forest—
Blazing Arrow Lv-1!
Yi Tianchen smiled slightly, his Speed unaffected as he raised his weapon, Wild Fury, in front of him. A sound like metal clashing rang out as the arrow struck the broad blade of Wild Fury, sending sparks flying.
However, Yi Tianchen underestimated this guy. Due to pure power output, the impact of the arrow was tremendous; it collided with the blade and caused Yi Tianchen to momentarily falter in his rapid advance, almost crashing into a tree due to inertia.
Of course, the most astonished was still the archer. Missing his shot, he widened his eyes and exclaimed, "Damn! How is that even possible?"
Yi Tianchen remained noncommittal. The blade of Wild Fury was twenty centimeters wide, acting like a shield when held in front; if used properly, it could serve as an effective barrier.
Seizing the opportunity while the archer was distracted, Yi Tianchen charged forward without hesitation. Target locked, Savage Charge activated instantly. The archer's expression changed sharply as he recognized Yi Tianchen's skill rhythm and bravely slammed into a nearby tree.
MISS! Stun failed!
Yi Tianchen was somewhat surprised—not because of the failed stun but because this guy willingly crashed into a tree to avoid being stunned. In reality, there was no time for him to think; he instinctively lunged to the left and ended up colliding with a tree.
"Die!"
With a loud shout, although the archer wasn't stunned, thanks to the effect of Savage Charge, Yi Tianchen reached his side in an instant. Wild Fury descended with golden Skill Radiance as the archer hurriedly switched to a dagger and prepared to block.
However, while this archer had increased his strength significantly, his initial strength growth still couldn't compare to Yi Tianchen's Hell Swordsman class. Wild Fury ruthlessly tore through his defense—
Blade Break Slash Lv-1!
-1269!
"Damn!"
The archer's eyes widened in disbelief as he quickly consumed a bottle of Fourth-Level Life Potion, grimacing, "The top player on the Level leaderboard is indeed extraordinary!"
"What’s wrong? Regretting it?" Yi Tianchen laughed.
"Uh... a little bit..."
The archer paused for a moment, saying this while not slowing down at all. He continuously changed his route, swiftly maneuvering around the trees. In an instant, he switched weapons and raised his hand to unleash another Blazing Arrow—
"Bang..."
System Notification: Player [Proud Dragon] used skill [Blazing Arrow Lv-1], you lost 813 points of Vitality!
Undeniably, this archer's attack power was quite formidable. The only thing Yi Tianchen could be thankful for was that there was no explosion; otherwise, it would have been a complete disaster.
In the ensuing battle, after realizing the gap between them, the archer Proud Dragon chose to avoid direct confrontation, constantly dodging around the trees, which left Yi Tianchen feeling quite frustrated.
With a serious expression, Yi Tianchen continued to pursue, using Savage Charge to close the distance. Just as he was about to attack, Proud Dragon saw the situation turning unfavorable and had already hidden behind a tree trunk.
However...
Hundred Steps Flying Sword Lv-1!
"Swish..."
The blade of Wild Fury was instantly imbued with a terrifying power that pierced through everything, directly penetrating the trees. A high damage number floated up from the trunk, followed by the panicked exclamation of Proud Dragon.
-1633!
With a successful strike, Yi Tianchen swiftly soared upward, grasping Wild Fury. As he drew it back, he executed a 180-degree spin and struck down fiercely at Proud Dragon's waist, timely offering a warm reminder: "Hey, if this were real life, you'd be cut in half!"
"Uh..."
Proud Dragon froze for a moment, suddenly disoriented by the wind. In a fleeting glance, he saw Yi Tianchen unfold, and a dark circle descended right beneath his feet.
"Crack..."
-1539!
GAME OVER!
"Thud..."
Three shiny copper coins bounced out and fell into the grass...
Yi Tianchen smiled as he stepped forward, scooping up the coins and weighing them in his hand. He then shot a disdainful look at the guy for a few seconds: "Damn, only three coins? And they're copper? So stingy!"
Behind him, Liu Yuhan stepped forward with a smile: "Not bad, your methods are straightforward and skillful, not dragging at all!"
Yi Tianchen replied, "And you didn’t help me at all!"
"What do you want me to do in your fight with another man?" Liu Yuhan laughed.
"Uh..."
Yi Tianchen couldn't help but facepalm, feeling speechless. He glanced back in the direction the archer had come from and said sternly, "We should leave this place first. That person has already found us, and there will definitely be more coming!"
Liu Yuhan nodded, noncommittal.
"Let's continue to circle around the edge of Bloodwood Forest and see if we can find the last piece of the set!" Yi Tianchen dragged his weapon, Wrath of the Wilderness, and pressed on.
"Sounds good to me!" Liu Yuhan agreed.
Yi Tianchen felt a surge of joy in his heart, secretly wishing it could always be like this!
Suddenly, a loud crack echoed as their skills unleashed their power. Under the combined assault of Yi Tianchen and Liu Yuhan, the Bloodwood Spirit couldn't withstand their attacks and was quickly defeated. Before long, they had slain a total of twelve Bloodwood Spirits and finally experienced a stroke of luck, obtaining the fourth piece of the Bloodwood Set.
However, at that moment, faint rustling sounds began to emerge from the distant woods, clearly indicating that someone was swiftly moving through the bushes...
"Let's go!"
As night fell, a waning moon slowly climbed above the treetops. In the forest, Yi Tianchen and Liu Yuhan joyfully ran along the path toward Venom Valley.
