Chapter 988: 988
"How about we just have a chat . "


Hornet's Nest smiled and looked relaxed, which caused his fans to cheer .
As the gaming industry was primarily about entertainment, strength and attractiveness were the two most important measures of an idol . Hornet's Nest was a professional player who was just a bit too attractive; it actually affected the public's determination of his strength .
"…" Lu Li responded to him with a Sap .
After the Sap, he immediately rushed towards the rare succubus . Lu Li had read an analysis of this rare succubus before in his previous life; its primary weakness was that it had less HP than an ordinary one .
"Do you have no shame?!" Hornet's Nest cried out as he pulled an ugly face .
According to social conventions, shouldn't there have been a friendly interaction between the two
players first?
He now regretted playing in the first game as he was in trouble . He didn't want to use Demon's Pupil so early on, but how could he let Lu Li defeat him so easily?
Hornet's Nest looked nauseous . He didn't really want to use his badge just for a Sap, but watching the little Succubus get attacked was heartbreaking . As such, he had no choice but to escape and run towards his pet .
Lu Li had already taken the Succubus down to half health without receiving much damage himself .
The main skills that this Succubus had were crowd-control and burning . The HP that Lu Li had lost was due to this burn .


When Hornet's Nest arrived, Lu Li decisively used Vanish and disappeared .
The timing was just right, as Hornet's Nest had cast a skill that was just about to hit him . If the skill had connected, the continuous damage would have instantly removed Lu Li from Stealth .
In this first round, Lu Li had failed to achieve his goal .
Obviously, Hornet's Nest didn't gain much of an advantage either . His Succubus had lost half of its HP and it had used some of its skills which required a cooldown period .
This time, Hornet's Nest didn't want to passively wait to get attacked .
When he was challenging Lu Li previously, it wasn't just an impulsive decision . What he said about his confidence in defeating Lu Li wasn't just words for the interview . He really did have great confidence in this fight .
Lu Li lurked outside a 15-yard radius from Hornet's Nest and patiently waited for his next opportunity .
However, he felt like something was wrong . He felt a chill down his spine and carefully examined his opponent for any indication as to what was happening .
There was clearly something wrong with Hornet's Nest .
On the surface, he looked horrible . There were blue veins popping up across his face and it looked like he was about to explode .
His two eyes were completely dark; there wasn't even a single trace of white .


Demon's Pupil!

A long time ago, when Lu Li and Hornet's Nest were fighting, Hornet's Nest had used Demon's Eye, which was the inferior version of Demon's Pupil . If it weren't for Lu Li's proficiency in the game at the time, he easily could have lost .

Lu Li didn't expect Hornet's Nest to learn the Demon's Pupil Skill .
What Lu Li did next forced the audience to squint . While his opponent wasn't doing anything, Lu Li transformed into a little leopard and ran away .
Many Thieves who looked back on this footage openly declared that Lu Li was the very first speed king .
Hornet's Nest was dumbfounded, as he had deliberately turned to the side before casting Demon's Pupil to prevent arousing Lu Li's suspicions . He planned to lock Lu Li in combat by using Sudden Thrust towards him and then casting a number of skills that dealt continuous damage .
However, he had no idea that Lu Li would try to run away from him .
The arena for this competition wasn't that large, but if one person wanted to avoid fighting, it was difficult to catch them unless the chaser was faster than they were .
After 45 seconds, Lu Li wanted to use Shadow Cloak . He removed the damage de-buff that he had accidentally acquired, and went into Stealth . Apparently, he wasn't just trying to run away .
Hornet's Nest turned to see what Lu Li was doing, but discovered that the effect of Demon's Pupil had ended .
Was Lu Li accounting for the duration of his own Demon's Pupil effect?
This discovery made Hornet's Nest's heart sink . Who really was this guy? He knew the timing of Demon's Pupil better than the user .
Even so, without Demon's Pupil, Hornet's Nest still didn't feel there wasn't any hope left and Lu Li didn't feel like he had already won . At face value, Lu Li had lost 1/3 of his HP while Hornet's Nest still hadn't lost anything .
The Veteran racer had already gotten closer to his performance in the last Magic Cup .
The advantage that he had gained because of his rebirth has largely disappeared, and Lu Li was standing here now with his equipment and level because of his personal efforts .
In the past six months, Lu Li had almost been like a machine .
He didn't have any entertainment or leisure, and barely had any contact with his sister .
He had invested his time and energy in creating a super character . He could confidently say that even without his level advantage, he would still be a super player .
He first activated his shoes' special effect and appeared behind Hornet's Nest, but only managed to get two attacks in .
Lu Li calmly used Gale Steps to block an incoming ultimate skill from his opponent . He then used his movement speed advantage to escape and look for the next opportunity .
The small Succubus lashed its whip and screamed, which periodically took some of Lu Li's HP .
Hornet's Nest was in a better position than before, as there was a ranged unit to deal with the Thief when he appeared .
No wonder he was ambitious enough to tell the media that he could defeat Lu Li .
Unfortunately, Lu Li had almost completely outclassed him in terms of level and equipment . The difference in HP between them grew smaller, and Hornet's Nest was eventually left with less than him .
With only one-fifth of his HP left, Lu Li finally defeated Hornet's Nest even through the attacks of the small Succubus .
However, he had exhausted almost everything to do so . Gale Steps, his badge and his crowd control skills had all been used up .
Seventh Heaven then sent out Lucky Southern Persian . Although it was an unfair fight, there was no doubt that Lucky Southern Persian would quickly deal with Lu Li . Seventh Heaven also didn't want to make the mistakes that other guilds had made .
Lu Li was quite persistent, and if he wasn't dealt with quickly, he would just keep fighting . The moment his cooldowns refreshed, he would quickly make a comeback .
"I don't know if Southern Persian will use Polymorph, but if I could keep turning Lu Li into a sheep that would feel so good!" one of the spectators exclaimed .
"Are you an idiot? Getting turned into a sheep is exactly what Lu Li wants right now!"
His friend was clearly smarter than he was, but in fact, they had all guessed incorrectly . Lu Li didn't expect Lucky Southern Persian to use Polymorph at all .
That kind of thinking was typical of a low-level player . There was no way Lucky Southern Persian would make such a basic mistake .
