Chapter 118: Breaking the Contract
What an idol!
Now it was the male players’ turn to look at the Blacklisted Player with admiration.
Daring to directly ask a beauty to take off her clothes—that was truly something ordinary people couldn’t pull off!
After several hours, almost no one in the Level 13 monster area of Shadow City was unaware of this Blacklisted Player. The BOSS pet he brought along was too conspicuous. Even those who hadn’t seen him before knew the Blacklisted Player had arrived just by spotting them from afar.
Moreover, news spread that the Blacklisted Player specifically targeted those who initiated PK. The once chaotic Level 13 grinding area became much more orderly that day, with PK incidents dropping by a full half compared to usual.
The players in the Level 13 area had witnessed the Blacklisted Player’s prowess firsthand. They knew that even a group of them wouldn’t be a match for his BOSS pet. Though many wanted to kill the Blacklisted Player for a huge loot drop, they had the desire but not the guts—no one dared make a move.
Just because Level 13 players didn’t dare act didn’t mean no one would. News of a Blacklisted Player appearing in the Level 13 area quickly spread. Many were too far away and figured he’d be gone by the time they returned, so they didn’t waste the trip. But some players nearby began to hatch plans.
“It’s Yi Feiyang and his team! I saw them PK other players yesterday. They’re all Level 16 and their skills aren’t bad either! That Blacklisted Player is in trouble now!”
A squad marched menacingly toward the Blacklisted Player who was wandering around with his BOSS. A player who saw this exclaimed in shock.
“This will be a good show. It wasn’t a waste of time coming here to watch the excitement.”
Hearing that Yi Feiyang and his team were quite skilled, many perked up.
They had seen the Blacklisted Player slaughter low-level players so often they were almost numb to it. No matter how many ordinary players showed up, they wouldn’t find it interesting.
Besides, if the Blacklisted Player got killed, they might just manage to snag one or two top-tier pieces of equipment!
Such an overpowered Blacklisted Player, one who could command a BOSS follower—there was no way the items on him weren’t exceptional!
“Brother, we have no quarrel with you. If you want to blame anyone, blame yourself for having a Black Name!” Yi Feiyang was a somewhat handsome Warrior. He stopped about ten meters away from the Blacklisted Player, leading six others, speaking with an apologetic tone as if the Blacklisted Player was already their captured prey.
“Of course, if you hand over all your valuable items to us, we can let you go,” an Archer behind Yi Feiyang chuckled. “Without your gear, fewer people will want to kill you, and you’ll be safer. It’s a win-win.”
As expected of Yi Feiyang—he was confident enough!
Those who knew Yi Feiyang were deeply impressed.
They knew his trump card. The BOSS pet was powerful, but Yi Feiyang’s team had a Shield Knight who was highly proficient with the Taunt Skill. The Mutant Slime King was only a Level 10 BOSS. A Level 16 Shield Knight could easily hold its aggro. Then Yi Feiyang and the other five could gang up on the Blacklisted Player. Without his pet’s help, even if he was skilled, in many people’s eyes, he was no longer a threat.
Everyone looked at the Blacklisted Player, wondering what he would do.
“What a bunch of idiots, still trying to show off in front of me. Today, I’ll teach you a lesson!”
But the Blacklisted Player just grinned, cursing Yi Feiyang and his six companions until their faces turned green with rage.
“We gave you face but you didn’t want it. Kill him!” someone in Yi Feiyang’s team roared angrily.
“Attack!” Yi Feiyang knew that talking more with this Blacklisted Player was a waste of time. With a low shout, he led the charge.
Finally, they could witness the Blacklisted Player’s true abilities!
The surrounding players watched the Blacklisted Player with keen eyes, eager to see what incredible methods he possessed.
He had killed so many low-level players in the Level 13 area, yet he had never made a move himself. His BOSS follower had done all the killing. Now, getting to see his real strength was an opportunity not to be missed!
“What is this?”
But the next moment, everyone was stunned.
The Blacklisted Player still didn’t move. Only his pet let out a sudden roar, leaped in front of Yi Feiyang’s six-man team, and then its body transformed into a massive black hurricane, instantly engulfing all six of them within the whirlwind!
Yi Feiyang and the others had decent operational skills, but against this astonishing large-scale Area Attack, so-called skill, awareness, and technique became a joke!
Damage numbers in the hundreds floated above the heads of Yi Feiyang’s six teammates. By the time the black hurricane subsided, all six of them had become corpses!
They did witness an incredible move—but it wasn’t the Blacklisted Player’s; it was his BOSS pet’s!
“So overpowered!”
“Damn, if that BOSS pet were a bit higher level, it would be invincible!”
Witnessing this scene, many players couldn’t help but murmur.
It was a Mutant Slime King, but not the BOSS they knew. It possessed even greater strength. Ordinary players were far from its match!
Yi Feiyang’s team was instantly wiped out by the Blacklisted Player’s BOSS pet using a large-scale group skill!
The news quickly spread. Teams that had initially wanted to hunt him for loot immediately turned around and left.
What a joke. Unless an entire Guild showed up, they stood no chance against him. Going after him now would be suicide. Yi Feiyang was a prime example.
The fame of the Blacklisted Player and his overpowered pet was known to all in the Level 13 area. Half an hour later, the Blacklisted Player logged off, but even players who logged in much later were familiar with his deeds.
Not only that, but early the next morning, the Blacklisted Player returned with his BOSS follower, wandering around Level 13 and even Level 14 areas.
What was the Blacklisted Player’s goal?
Many couldn’t help but speculate why the Blacklisted Player appeared in such low-level areas for two days in a row.
It didn’t seem like he was treasure hunting or doing a Quest. As for maintaining order in the low-level areas, that was even more laughable. Everyone knew he had his pet kill people just incidentally. Helping others find someone for revenge made a bit more sense.
“Little guy, it seems everyone recognizes you now.”
Half of the online time for the day had passed. Chen Mo wandered around the Level 14 monster area with Big Fatty. In the distance, two teams that had been PK-ing saw Big Fatty, and one of them quickly stopped and fled.
Seeing this, Chen Mo knew Big Fatty’s reputation had spread.
Chen Mo brought Big Fatty back to the Level 13 area, arriving at a grinding spot with many monsters.
“I’m taking this grinding spot. Leave within thirty seconds, or don’t blame me for being rude!”
Chen Mo shouted impolitely at the group inside. He hadn’t wandered around for nothing these past two days. This group had taken this grinding spot from others; he was just giving them a taste of their own medicine.
“Who dares to be so arrogant, trying to steal our grinding spot?”
This group wasn’t made of friendly folks. While killing monsters, they heard the shout and grew angry.
“It’s him!”
“What do we do? Give way or not?”
But when they looked up and saw Chen Mo and Big Fatty, they were startled.
They had been trying to avoid this Blacklisted Player and his BOSS pet, never expecting him to show up at their doorstep.
“Give way!”
The leading player gritted his teeth and said. Though very reluctant, he knew their group wasn’t enough to even make a dent.
The group unwillingly retreated. In the blink of an eye, only Chen Mo and Big Fatty remained in the area.
“Little guy, I’ve done so much for you. When you become powerful later, you must remember me, your master!” Chen Mo patted Big Fatty’s head and couldn’t help reminding him again.
Then, an ancient scroll appeared in his hand.
Soul Release Contract Scroll!
With a gentle motion, Chen Mo issued the command to use the Soul Release Contract Scroll.
Two gray beams of light instantly enveloped him and Big Fatty respectively. Between the two lights, a dark red thread connected them. Suddenly, the two gray lights shone brightly, and the dark red thread snapped with a sharp crack.
System Notification: You have broken the contract with your pet “Big Fatty”!
The System Notification sounded, and the gray light dissipated. Chen Mo looked at Big Fatty. Big Fatty stared blankly back at Chen Mo, unable to believe the new sensations it felt from its body.
The Flower Demon Battle Spirit on Big Fatty’s head flashed brightly. She clearly understood what had happened to Big Fatty. She had never expected that Adventurer human to release them.
System Notification: You obtained the title “Perfect Master”!
Title: Perfect Master
Description: Only players who use the Soul Release Contract Scroll for the first time to break a contract with their pet, and whose pet meets specific conditions, can obtain this title. This is a passive title; it takes effect without needing to be equipped.
Attributes:
Strength +10
Constitution +10
Agility +10
Intelligence +10
Spirit +10
Pet capture success rate increased by 5%
Pet Favorability +20
Pet Loyalty +20
Pet healing effect increased by 20%
…
Damn, such an overpowered passive title!
Staring at the newly obtained achievement title, Chen Mo was momentarily stunned. He hadn’t expected that letting Big Fatty go would reward him with such an incredible title.
Passive titles rarely increased all five character Attributes. Although it only added 10 points to each, for a passive title, these attributes were absolutely overpowered!
And the attributes listed under the five basic Attributes were all related to pets, and each one was strong and practical. Especially the 5% increase in pet capture success rate—Chen Mo felt it was too broken!
Other players didn’t have the Mutant Capture Skill and couldn’t capture BOSSes, so it might not be too important for them. But for him, increasing the BOSS capture rate by 5% was simply outrageous!
While Chen Mo was checking the Perfect Master title attributes, Big Fatty, urged by the Flower Demon Battle Spirit, quickly charged at the monsters deeper inside.
A bit over an hour later, a white light flashed over Big Fatty—it had reached Level 11! Its leveling speed was astonishingly fast!
During this time, some players passed by, intending to kill monsters here. But upon spotting Big Fatty and Chen Mo from afar, they immediately turned and left.
Chen Mo knew his efforts over the past two days hadn’t been in vain. He had flaunted Big Fatty everywhere, ensuring everyone knew its power, all to achieve the current effect.
