"Crack" A loud sound appeared.
While the graphorn stood there completely unharmed, Beef Noodle, however, was not so lucky, the bone in his right leg has been completely shattered!
Well, this is awkward.
Beef Noodle felt that what he kick was not flesh but a plate of steel, as per newton's third law, action and reaction are equal and opposite, his leg suffer the same force as his kick and was fractured in the process!
The graphorn easily stomp the cripple Beef Noodle back to spawn.
The spectating players were all left speechless, you're joking with me, right?
Although the other players saw Beef Noodle's battle turn into a complete fiasco, there were still many players who have risen to the challenge, and the strats they have displayed were all the more varied!
"Brother graphorn, the truth is...I'm your long-lost cousin!" A player kneels on the ground and tries to sway the beast with talk no Jutsu.
"Splat!" The graphorn rose its hooves and merciless stomp him to death.
"Eat this, Rock Throw!" There was also a player who picked up a rock from the ground and threw it at the graphorn before retreating, he was trying to kite the beast to its death.
Naturally, the result was with a quick charge the graphorn swiftly catch up to him and ram him down.
His two legs can't outrun the graphorn four, seems completely logical to me!
"Huh! Damn you, you wicked monster, watch me slide and watch how I'll end you!" There was also one player who try to slide under the beast to get to its soft underbelly.
However, he clearly misjudge the distance and slid right under the graphorn hooves, without even looking, the graphorn took a step and crush the player's head as if smashing a bug.
One Hour Later.
The players walked out of the portal and stood there silently looking at each other.
"I think...I'm going to quit this game." A player said breaking the long silence.
Hearing this, the other players couldn't help but run away in tears.
F***, we can't even beat the starter town mob, how can we even play this game?
At this moment, only one figure stood up and challenged the graphorn once again.
ID Indomitable_Panda!
"Earthshatter, the anticipation animation of the graphorn lasts about 1 second." (Basically the amount of time it take for the ability to go off)
"In addition, the weak spot of the graphorn is its underbelly, then all my attack must be direct to that spot if I want to do any damage"
"Since the only skill the game gives us is Focus Kick, then we can assume that Focus Kick must be the key to defeating the graphorn!"
"The previous battle between Beef Noodle and the graphorn shows that Focus Kick can probably only do damage to the graphorn if you strike at its weak spot, if your attack land anywhere else, it will result in your bone being fracture and you receiving the graphorn counterattack!"
Indomitable_Panda's gaze lit up as he stepped forward and challenge the graphorn once again.
But soon, a light flashed at spawn again and Indomitable_Panda walked out of the portal.
"My reaction speed was too slow and some of my movements were off. I will have to reflect on my mistake and improve upon them!"
"When I dodge, I have to do this and that...:
Indomitable_Panda continues to reflect on his action before challenging the graphorn once again.
Every death only causes Indomitable_Panda's spirit to burn brighter and brighter, as each of his death only brought him one step closer to victory!
...
Seeing that they couldn't defeat the graphorn, most players chose to give up.
Or in other words, they were waiting for a savior to appear! Someone who can guide them to victory!
"Ah, such beautiful scenery, if only I have a glass of wine to pair with it!" Some players found higher ground and leisurely rested there while admiring the sunset.
Other players continues to rummage around the sect ruins hoping to find some treasure.
Several players also went offline to search for guides on the internet.
But most of the players base were gathering at the sect square.
The player ID Divine Tongue found a big pot from the sect ruins and started to make hot pots, he was continuously adding slices of graphorn meats into the boiling pot.
The surrounding players all hold up their self made utensil and stare at the pot intensely.
"This slices of graphorn meat is so yummy!"
"The graphorn thigh meat is even more mouthwatering!"
"As expected of my bro, f***ing awesome, the food he made is the best in the world!"
"Wait, aren't we supposed to be cultivating?"
"F*** cultivation, is cultivation as enjoyable as eating hot pot?"
"WTF, I'm pulling an all-nighter but all I'm doing is sitting in a game eating hot pot? Nevertheless, this is so yummy~"
.....
The more these players eat, the more they start to praise the game, no matter how much they eat, they just can't get tired of the foods, not only that but they don't even need to worry about bursting their stomachs.
And so the first night quickly passed.
The Next Day.
"Huh..." He Yi Ming open his eyes and let out a long breath.
It took a whole night but he has finally recovered from his injury.
"These graphorns are way too powerful!"
"It seems like I can't rely on the players to complete the mission! Fine, I guess I'll do it myself!"
"But there are only two days left, how in the world do I kill 99 more graphorns?"
He Yi Ming let out a sigh.
Forget it, let's sign in first!
"Ding, the host signed in successfully!"
"Login reward, new building, Resurrection Hall!"
"Resurrection Hall: After the player dies, they will be automatically resurrected in the resurrection hall, and their cultivation will be reset to Body Refinement Realm Rank 1! There is no need for the players to create a new character after each death!"
"This Resurrection Hall is a nice upgrade!" He Yi Ming nodded in satisfaction.
With this building, even if the players get smashed into smithereens they can be instantly revived back at Body Refinement Realm Rank 1.
They will not lose any experience and skill they gain on their joureny!
The only thing they will lose is their cultivation.
This game will just be the result of a souls-like VRMMORPG making a child with a rouge-like VRMMORPG!
The most important upgrade of this building is allowing the player to spend less time creating new characters and more time actually playing the game!
Suddenly, a system notification pops up.
"Ding!"
"ID Indomitable_Panda has successfully slain a graphorn, completing the host mission! Reward 100 contribution points!"
"? ? ?"
He Yi Ming was shocked by this notification.
"A player....killed a graphorn?" He Yi Ming's first reaction was that he must be hallucinating.
However, the system notification screen in front of him told him this was real.
"How in the world did he do it?" He Yi Ming immediately stood up and rushed out of the main hall.
....
"Holy shit, our savior has finally appeared!"
"Panda senpai! Please teach me how it's done!"
"Pogger! Panda senpai, please carry me!
.....
Surrounded by a crowd of players, a figure covered in blood stood up top of the freshly kill graphorn, with a triumphant smile on his face.
ID Indomitable_Panda.
"These graphorns are very tough opponents!"
"The difficulty lay in their very high defense and offense! With our current cultivation, a single hit means death!"
"That why we must stay unscratched throughout the whole battle!"
Indomitable_Panda calmly explains to the other players.
? ? ?
Must stay unscratched?
You're kidding me, right?
The surrounding players started to gaze at one another!
Maybe we lived in a different world from Panda senpai!
"Senpai, so how did you manage to kill its? Can you give us a live demonstration to show us how it's done?" A player asked with sparkling eyes.
"I don't mind." Indomitable_Panda nodded his head, without any intention of hiding his technique.
"Poggers!" The other players were moved by his action.
I can't beat it!
But...
We have someone who can!
After learning Panda senpai method, killing the graphorn will be a walk in the park!
"How did he do it?" He Yi Ming was also very intrigued.
How in the world did a Body Refinement Realm Rank 1 kill a Spirit Realm Early Stage beast?
If it was someone who possesses a heavenly defying physique like Chaos Body, Supreme Body, or inborn with immortal bone then fine. (Basically Wuxia Novel Hax)
But Indomitable_Panda has the same base attributes as the other players, without any special talent or physique!
How in the world did he do it?
