MMO: Pierce Heaven Til’ It Breaks Chapter 372

Chapter 372 - The King’s Order

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation  Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

After a grueling five hour screening, all party’s vacancies were filled.

However, Li Yi was once again stumped at the start of the battle.

This last-minute-pieced-together party really lacked team coordination. They were doing good at the beginning but there was a sudden change of events once these Gryphon Paladins took flight. With over ten of them battling the same single Gryphon Paladin in a group of plummeting gryphons, the majority of the paladins were left untouched. Of course, that led to an absolute total party annihilation.

“Again!”

The issue of the five Critical Hit combo was taken care of but they were still far from achieving seamless cooperation. This time, Li Yi opted to personally take command, adapting the 1-on-1 strategy and splitting the 100 Gryphon Paladins among them. Everyone would be held accountable for not defeating their personal monster!

They restarted the battle but there was no change to the situation. In fact, it was even worse…

Over fifty Gryphon Paladins plunged before scrambling about. Most of the party members were muddled, chasing after their own target and ending up entangled in chaos. When they finally came to their senses, they were already lying on the ground.

“Again!”

They ran their corpses and continued…

They attempted seven times and out of that seven times, it was a consecutive TPK. Li Yi could only bury his frustration within him.

Any possible worst-case scenario that could happen had happened. The way this was progressing, they probably would not be able to clear this stage even in a year.

“Please do not panic. Just focus your own monsters. Do not wait until they have made the plunge, it’ll be too late then…”

Li Yi had already given all the advice he had by then, but the party’s team coordination was not to his standards. The best they did was when they managed to hit 39 of the flying gryphons.

Just as Li Yi was trying to explain calmly, there were people who started to quit the party.

There was the thing about casual parties, no matter the ability of an individual, there were always people who could not handle consecutive TPKs.

In the blink of an eye, five of them left because they had a date with their girlfriends, three of them logged off indefinitely with a sudden date with the toilet while another seven were busy with house chores…

“Guild Master Dark Wing, are we still going at it?” Royal Blue Sky himself was moping.

“No.”

Li Yi was disheartened after witnessing so many people quitting the party. If he were to regroup and get annihilated again, they would just repeat the same loop.

“Disband!”

Li Yi flung out his arm and announced the disbandment of the party.

Li Yi’s first party attempt at the Light Conference ended in sheer tragedy.

He left the distribution of Gold Coins to Fire Ice. Li Yi was not the least bit concerned about his share and left Fire Ice completely in charge.

Li Yi returned to Shattered Frost City and used the Teleport skill by Military Advisor to reach Blade Peak Arena.

The Military Advisor’s Teleport was similar to the King’s special skill but different as a King would not receive any penalties while a Military Advisor or Great General would have their HP deducted by a third upon a successful teleportation.

Li Yi called Jiaojiao over to have her use a King’s Order outside the Arena.

[King’s Order: Expendable tool that can only be used by the King and family. It is limited to twice a day usage. No matter the location of a person, they can be forcefully teleported to where the King is. Additional Note: The King’s Order was limited to locations within the nation.]

“Assemble at Blade Peak!” Jiaojiao’s messenger on the King’s Order was pretty straightforward.

Tst tst—

Countless players were teleported over. In an instant, the place was flooded with people. There was definitely at least a billion people here…

This was the authority of a King!

The majority of players clicked in out of curiosity as the crowd grew in Blade Peak Arena.

“What’s going on? Why am I here?”

“I was fighting a boss, f*ck me, just a little more and the boss would have been dead.”

“Haha, I lucked out! I was pursued by several foreigners in the Southern Continent. I thought I was done for, who knew? Haha…”

“What’s up? Why are there so many people here…”

Li Yi’s jaw dropped…

Jiaojiao asked, “Perverted Wing, what’s next on the agenda?”

“I don’t know…”

“F*ck, you had me pull them over for nothing? You you… You’re really pissing me off.”

Li Yi shook his head in shock, “I didn’t have you pull them all over. I only wanted you to summon our Little Drunk Cat guild over…”

“But I used the King’s Order…”

“Yes, but weren’t there some options on the King’s Order upon reeling them all in?”

Jiaojiao thought for a moment before speaking. She must have thought it was an unsightly scene with everyone around, hence she quickly covered her mouth.

“I remembered! There were five options on the King’s Order. The first, all citizens, second, all Guild Masters, third, all guild members, fourth, all Castellan’s, fifth, all officials, I… I used the default…”

Li Yi rolled his eyes back, “Default my ass. You better take care this mess yourself.”

With the commotion going on, Jiaojiao’s face flushed red, flustered, “I… I don’t know what to say, Perverted Wing, you made me do this…”

“Brothers, I summoned you today for one thing, I… I… I’m getting married to Perverted Wing!”

Jiaojiao was able to come up with an idea amidst her anxiety and finally came up with a reasonable excuse.

Using the King’s Order to pull people in was a major event because this item was non-restrictive. If the other party did not agree to it, they could just cancel the summoning.

As King, it was all about building prestige. In the history of over ten rulers in the Western and Southern Continents, their prestige was below par, with the exception of Night Moon and Arthur.

The absence of prestige could be seen on a King’s Order. A King with prestige could reel in billions of people at a time but a King lacking in prestige would see less than several thousand.

The gap was huge.

Although Jiaojiao did not quite grasp what prestige was but she knew it was not right to play pranks. Hence, she needed a reason that could convince everyone.

“Wow, the queen’s going have a royal marriage.’

“Congratulations!”

“You make the ideal couple. This is major news!”

“Sigh, nice guys finish last.”

“Sigh, I wish I was Dark Wing.”

Judging by the reaction of her citizens, Jiaojiao let out a sigh of relief. She managed to wiggle her way out of that one…

“Everyone, come try out the Arena. It’s fun in there. You can fight if you want to. Have fun!”

Jiaojiao delivered her speech and snuck away.

Because she was King, she has the most advanced personal voice channel. The King’s voice took first priority and could be broadcasted to the entire region.

“Perverted Wing, where did you head to?”

“Coordinates, 122333:122455”

Jiaojiao teleported to the coordinates and found Li Yi there.

Li Yi had fled to the bottom of Blade Peak. He was currently mounted on Ice Toad King and was preparing to climb up the mountain to pay Augustus a visit.

“What are you up to now?”

“Taking a hike.”

“Can’t you teleport?”

“If I could, would I still be here?”

Li Yi leaped up with Ice Toad King.

“I wanna go as well!”

Jiaojiao was intrigued, so she summoned Ice Toad King to tag along Li Yi.

An hour later, Li Yi made it safely to the top of Blade Peak while Jiaojiao followed in an extraordinary test of courage.

Jiaojiao did not fall to her death, not even once. She was doing a lot better than Li Yi’s did in his first attempt.

Not only she was good in bed, but her jumping skill was undefeated anywhere.

Li Yi was not the least bit surprised especially after Jiaojiao’s tramping feat in Super Trampoline 250.

Augustus was still maintaining his staring-into-a-distance pose while Red Dragon lady remained fast asleep beneath his feet.

“This young lady here, you’re good, I admire you,” Augustus flashed Jiaojiao a friendly smile.

Li Yi and Jiaojiao walked side by side to Augustus but this perverted old man did not even glance at Li Yi once. His gaze was fixated on Jiaojiao.

Even NPCs knew how to appreciate a beauty?

If Li Yi had to answer, he would definitely say yes.

In King of Pantheon, the higher the level of players, they would encounter higher AI. In the past life, as Li Yi got closer to the end, a lot of the high-level NPCs did not look or act any different from people in real life.

Jiaojiao’s eyes lit up when she saw Red Dragon Queen lying in slumber under Augustus feet.

“Is this your mount?”

“That’s right, this is my mount.”

Augustus’ proud face had Li Yi shaking his head quietly. The others may not know this but he knew that this old man never once mounted Red Dragon Queen ever since he tamed her. This event caused his character to be twisted and started banning flying mounts on Blade Peak.

Jiaojiao blinked her cute large eyes while naively asking, “Can you ride her for me?”

“Cough, she’s asleep,” Augustus looked awkward.

“Don’t push this matter. This old man may toss you down the mountain from embarrassment,” Li Yi secretly messaged Jiaojiao.

Jiaojiao lifted her foot and stomped on Red Dragon Queen’s head, startling the sleeping dragon.

“Roar—”

Just from the dragon’s howling alone, Jiaojiao was pushed back twenty over meters by the Draconic aura. If it were not for Li Yi holding onto her, she would definitely have fallen off the cliff.

Jiaojiao was still fixated. “Red Dragon’s awake now. Take a ride.”

Augustus’s face sunk.

Before he exploded in rage, Li Yi took a step up, “Your Excellency, is there anything I could help you with?”

Li Yi’s purpose for climbing up the mountain this time was not for the Universal Key. Truth be told, he has not been on this mountain for quite some time now so he was here to see if he could obtain any new Hall of Fame quests.

He was happy to find that a giant golden question mark appeared on top of Augustus’ head. This meant that the number of his Hall of Fame achievements has reached Augustus’ requirements. He could accept new quests.

Augustus then turned his attention to Li Yi, “Yes, young man. It has only been a few months and you have become a successor of Hunter Goddess. You really have me seeing you in a new light.”

“Out of several hundred gods in Mount Pantheon, there’s two I admired the most and one of them was Hunter Goddess. I remember when I was young, I was fortunate enough to see her face. From then on, her beauty lingered my mind and has never faded since…”

Jiaojiao could not help but butt in, “Perverted old man, are you Perverted Wing’s master? Why do both of you have such dirty minds?”

“Master?” Augustus measured up Jiaojiao from top to bottom before the color of his face changed.

Li Yi had a bad hunch, ‘D*amn, this old man must have noticed Jiaojiao’s class.’

The progenitor of Black Paladins, Cassius had died at Augustus’ hands…
