Dominating the Pugilistic World With My Detective Skills
Chapter 53 - 53 53 Down with Each Other

53: Chapter 53: Down with Each Other 53: Chapter 53: Down with Each Other Editor: Henyee Translations Ye Weiming, being too lazy to run, drew the BOSS towards him for battle.

Bai Zhanji naturally followed along, while Tang Sancai from Tang Sect ran to the side of a large tree for cover, from where he continued to deploy hidden weapons at Lin Zhipei.

Have to admit, Sancai was indeed a top-tier Tang Sect player, his timing was impeccable.

After acquiring the poisonous weapon, he did not hastily throw it to test its effect.

Instead, he maintained his regular rhythm, slowly using regular hidden weapons to chip at the enemy.

After all, Lin Zhipei was no fool.

Ye Weiming and his team had conducted their transaction right under his nose, although he wasn’t aware of the details, he anticipated that something fishy was going on.

At the start, he resisted the hidden weapons from Tang Sancai with all his might.

Despite being a highly skilled player of the Tang Sect, not a single one of his hidden weapons could penetrate Lin Zhipei’s Protective True Qi.

However, it resulted in a rapid consumption of his inner strength.

At this level of consumption, his inner strength would undoubtedly be depleted before Ye Weiming and Tang Sancai, leaving him no match for the trio.

This explains why he had previously opted for the tactic of sacrifice and trading blows.

When there’s a significant gap in power, power would become a strategy and when evenly matched, strategy would become power!

After a while of persistence, Lin Zhipei finally had to admit that he had to change his strategy.

He abandoned the method of resisting all hidden weapons with his inner strength, and once again started selectively taking damage.

At this point, Tang Sancai decisively mixed a Mosquito Needle in with his other hidden weapons.

After accurately predicting Lin Zhipei’s thoughts, he landed a heavy blow.

His attack was skillfully executed – it did not amplify power with Inner Strength, nor did it pose a significant threat to the enemy.

Although the attack hit an acupoint on the opponent’s back, Lin Zhipei could easily avoid the critical area by moving slightly.

As a result, Lin Zhipei got poisoned.

The power of a poisoned hidden weapon lay in the fact that it didn’t need to hit the critical area or increase its power.

As long as it hit, it could poison the target!

The poison resistance of a BOSS in combat state was quite strong.

The potent poison, which could have knocked Yu Daidan out, only resulted in a loss of 10% of Lin Zhipei’s combat strength.

However, in a confrontation where both forces were evenly matched, a reduction in combat strength by 10% was significant.

It led to the trio being able to overpower Lin Zhipei.

Shortly thereafter, Tang Sancai struck again; while Lin Zhipei was struggling to cope, he shot a Seven Star Nail into his shoulder.

Abruptly, Lin Zhipei’s fighting strength was reduced to about 70% of his peak strength.

This phenomena wasn’t because the poison of the Seven Star Nails was twice as potent as the Mosquito Needles, but it was due to the amazing effects of two types of poisons mixed together, a case where one plus one is greater than two!

After two rounds of weakening, Lin Zhipei, who initially was able to take on three opponents by himself, finally started showing fatigue under the onslaught of poison.

With his strength reduced by 30%, he no longer had the full dominance over Ye Weiming like before.

On the other hand, Ye Weiming, freed from a lot of pressure, decisively switched his swordsmanship to the Yue Nu Sword technique to increase the team’s damage output.

Especially after Ye Weiming made a follow-up strike, the poison of the Green Bamboo Sword Injection also flowed into this Level 35 BOSS’s body, reducing Lin Zhipei’s combat strength even further.

Then, it was time for a gratifying harvest.

Three minutes later, Lin Zhipei’s vitality value was finally depleted.

Just when he was reduced to a mere sliver of health, this doomed hero exploded with unprecedented strength!

He let out a roar, and his overwhelming inner strength burst forth in an instant.

The longsword in his hand transformed into a shadow.

Not only had his power returned to its prime level, but its speed had also reached a terrifying extent.

Even the stronger opponents like Bai Zhanji and Ye Weiming had to switch from attack to defence, avoiding him temporarily.

However, everyone knew this was his final frenzy.

After this burst of power, he would be at the end of his life.

As for who could take the final damage, it would depend on who was quicker.

In a team battle that uses contribution allocation mode, the person who lands the final hit gets a significant contribution bonus when calculating the final rewards.

Whoever takes it has a better chance of getting good loot!

As it turned out, the deciding factor for grabbing the last hit wasn’t about being fast, but rather about the range!

Although Ye Weiming was quick, he still couldn’t outpace Tang Sancai’s flying dagger!

When Lin Zhipei’s rapid sword attack ended, just as Ye Weiming was about to take a fatal leap towards him for the kill, Tang Sancai’s flying dagger was already less than three feet away from Lin Zhipei.

Knowing he was about to die, Lin Zhipei didn’t dodge or resist.

Instead, he roared again, pouring all his internal strength into his longsword, turning it into a long rainbow-like formation and blasting towards Tang Sancai with a lightning-fast momentum.

In fact, Lin Zhipei’s hatred had already shifted from Bai Zhanji to the two players.

However, the person he wanted to kill most before his death was Ye Weiming.

After experiencing the seemingly outrageous survival skill “Phoenix Charm”, he knew that taking him down was unrealistic.

Therefore, his “Flying Dragon from the Sky” strike targeted Tang Sancai.

“Poof.” Tang Sancai’s flying dagger entered Lin Zhipei’s body, completely draining the green vitality bar over his head.

“Poof!” Lin Zhipei’s longsword penetrated Tang Sancai’s body, turning him into a flash of white light.

Instant Kill!

Ye Weiming helplessly watched as his teammate and the BOSS were simultaneously killed, feeling a wave of melancholy.

It was only now that the system’s notification sound lazily rang out.

Ding!

You have successfully killed the Level 35 BOSS, Lin Zhipei, gaining 10,000 experience points and 1,000 internal strength points!

Not only have you successfully protected the honest Doujiang Xiaobai, but you also killed Lin Zhipei, Ji Laiye, and Ge Angshou, the three ruthless bandits, perfectly completing this mission.

Reward: 20,000 experience points, 2,000 internal strength points, a random martial arts skill level up!

Ding!

Your “Yue Nu Swordsmanship” has leveled up to Level 9.

System Announcement: The disciples of the Divine Capture Division, Ye Weiming, Tang Sect disciple Tang Sancai have killed the Level 35 BOSS, Lin Zhipei, and achieved the first kill.

They were awarded 1,000 points of reputation in the martial arts world and 1,000 contribution points towards their sects.

System Announcement: Players…

The first-kill system announcement, as usual, was broadcast three times in a row, but Ye Weiming couldn’t help but smirk.

The mission reward was quite generous, but the last random reward did not make him happy.

Actually, the skill he most wanted to improve was “Breathing Technique”, followed by “How about Dai Zong”, then “Eight Steps to Leap the Toad”, even if it was “Phoenix-chasing Dragon”, it would be better than “Yue Nu Sword Technique”!

But the system, as if to spite him, randomised to a skill he least wanted to improve.

Shaking his head, Ye Weiming casually opened his attribute panel.

After taking a look, he couldn’t help but gasp in surprise!
