Chapter 218 This person's method of luring monsters is wrong!
"More than thirty Void Aberrations..."
The burly man with the two axes looked rather grim. He glanced at Thor.
"Boss, should we go around that?"
Charging headlong into a monster's lair is clearly not a wise move.
Especially at the very beginning of the game, when everyone's cards are still unknown.
"Go around?"
Thor's lips curled into a haughty smile.
His deep blue eyes showed no fear whatsoever; instead, they burned with fierce fighting spirit.
"The word 'detour' doesn't exist in my dictionary."
He pointed his finger at the desolate ruins, his voice booming like thunder, filled with an undeniable air of dominance.
"Crush them all."
"this……"
The burly man with the double axes and several other team members hesitated.
"What? Are you scared?"
Thor's gaze swept coldly over them.
Those whose gaze swept over him instinctively lowered their heads, not daring to meet his eyes.
"A bunch of useless trash."
Thor scoffed dismissively.
His gaze finally settled on Chen Yifan and Zhao Hu.
"You two are new here."
His voice carried a tone of charity.
"I'm giving you a chance to prove yourselves."
"You, that big guy,"
He pointed at Zhao Hu,
"Go and lure those things out."
"As for you,"
His gaze shifted to Chen Yifan.
"Just follow him and see if your so-called 'intuition' can still bring us some surprises."
Upon hearing this, Zhao Hu's face instantly darkened.
Luring the monster?
What the hell is the difference between this and sending him to his death?
Those were over thirty elite monsters, all around level 60!
Although he was tough and thick-skinned, he wasn't made of iron. Being surrounded and beaten by so many monsters, he would have been badly injured even if he didn't die!
He was about to speak in rebuttal.
A hand, however, pressed heavily on his shoulder.
It's Chen Yifan.
"No problem, bro!"
Chen Yifan's face still wore that simple, slightly foolish smile. He patted his chest and said confidently:
"This is a small matter, we brothers will take care of it!"
"My brother may not be the brightest, but he's thick-skinned, making him perfect for this kind of rough work!"
As he spoke, he winked at Zhao Hu, the meaning in his eyes crystal clear:
Stop talking nonsense and do as I say!
Zhao Hu: "..."
He felt like his lungs were about to explode with anger.
Who's not smart enough?
Who is suitable for doing manual labor?
You're the fucking thickest one!
But looking at Chen Yifan's unquestionable gaze and then at the menacing Thors beside him, he ultimately swallowed back the curse that was on the tip of his tongue.
He took a deep breath and squeezed out two words through gritted teeth.
"...I'll go."
"That's more like it!"
Chen Yifan nodded in satisfaction, then gave Thor a fawning smile.
"Brother, you and your brothers can rest here and watch our performance!"
After saying that, he pushed the reluctant Zhao Hu and walked towards the ruins.
Watching the two figures disappear into the distance, the burly man with the double axes couldn't help but spit on the ground.
"Two idiots."
Thor didn't say anything, but simply crossed his arms and watched with a leisurely air.
He wanted to see just how capable these two newcomers from the East really were.
……
"Chen Yifan! What the hell do you want?!"
Once out of Thor's sight, Zhao Hu could no longer hold back and roared at Chen Yifan in a low voice.
"Do you know that this is tantamount to suicide!"
"Who said we're going to die?"
The silly smile was gone from Chen Yifan's face; in its place was an unfathomable calmness.
He pointed to a half-collapsed office building in front of him and said quickly:
"Do you see that building?"
"There is a parking lot entrance in the basement of that building."
"The entrance is very narrow, allowing only two or three aberrations to pass through at a time."
"The terrain is perfect for a shield warrior like you."
Zhao Hu was taken aback.
He looked in the direction Chen Yifan was pointing and indeed saw the entrance that was half-hidden by rubble.
He couldn't help but feel a little puzzled:
How did you know?
"I guessed."
Chen Yifan casually replied, then continued:
"Your task is not to lure monsters, but to guard that entrance."
"I will lure those monsters to you in batches."
"All you need to do is block them up like a wall, and that will be enough."
As Zhao Hu listened to Chen Yifan's arrangements, his anger inexplicably subsided by more than half.
This plan.
sound……
Does this seem feasible?
"But how will you lead it?"
Zhao Hu was still somewhat uneasy.
"Those things aren't stupid; they wouldn't follow you around like that, would they?"
"Well..."
Chen Yifan took out the strangely shaped demonic sword from his backpack—[Touch of the Howler].
He weighed the knife in his hand, then gave Zhao Hu a bright smile.
"I have a clever plan."
Having said that, he stopped talking nonsense, and with a flash, he disappeared into the shadows of the ruins like a ghost.
Zhao Hu looked in the direction he left, then at the heavy shield in his hand, and finally gritted his teeth and quickly crept towards the entrance of the underground parking lot of that office building.
Damn it, I'm gambling!
Since we're already on this sinking ship, we might as well die!
……
Deep within the ruins.
Chen Yifan's figure moved like a ghost among the broken steel bars and cement blocks.
His "insight" had already revealed the exact distribution of monsters throughout the entire lair.
Thirty-seven Void Aberrations.
They resemble upright-walking lizards, covered in purplish-black carapaces, with no eyes, only a gaping maw filled with sharp teeth.
They wandered aimlessly through the ruins, making strange "gurgling" sounds from their throats.
In the very center of the lair, there was an elite monster that was noticeably larger, with a level of Lv.65.
That's not Chen Yifan's goal.
Instead, there were five lone mutants wandering on the outermost edge of the nest.
He approached silently.
They stopped less than thirty meters away from the five monsters.
Then, he raised the [Touch of the Howler] in his hand.
"Are you ready?"
In his mind, he gave instructions to the 100,000 vengeful spirits.
"Let's start with... the most exciting one."
next second.
"Ah—kill—hungry—"
An indescribable noise, filled with pain, resentment, and madness, suddenly erupted from the blade!
That sound was more piercing than ten thousand fingernails scraping a blackboard!
It's worse than the worst rock band lead singer's drunken wailing!
Within a radius of 100 meters, all the glass shards were instantly reduced to dust by the terrifying sonic impact!
The five Void Aberrations that were wandering around suddenly stiffened.
Although they do not have hearing organs, this noise pollution, which originates from the soul level, has caused them tons of damage!
Their movements showed a noticeable sluggishness.
It's now!
Chen Yifan's figure moved.
Instead of rushing forward, he turned and ran!
As he ran, he kept waving the demonic sword in his hand, making the noise of "The Lament of Ten Thousand Souls" rise higher and higher.
The five mutants, driven nearly mad by the noise, immediately locked onto him as their primary target.
They let out an angry roar, stride forward on their powerful limbs, and frantically chased after Chen Yifan in the direction he had fled.
The whole process was smooth and seamless.
The main force in the center of the nest was not alerted.
"Done."
A slight smile curved Chen Yifan's lips.
He led the five frenzied "fans" behind him and ran wildly toward Zhao Hu's location.
Meanwhile, Thor and the others, who had been observing the scene through binoculars from a distance, were completely dumbfounded when they saw this.
"I...I didn't see wrong, did I?"
The burly man with two axes rubbed his eyes, his face full of disbelief.
"That kid... he just shoved a broken knife around, yelled a couple of times, and lured the monster out?"
"And... exactly five, no more, no less?"
Thor did not speak.
His deep blue eyes were fixed intently on Chen Yifan's figure.
For the first time, a genuine glimmer appeared deep within his eyes…
dignified.
