Chapter 96: Late Night Assassination

“Heh heh! Let this Brother Daitu personally give you a knife. Little guy, you should also kneel down.” Brother Daitu charged towards blind Li Yidao. And Li Yidao’s current situation was truly critical.

Originally, Li Yidao was skilled enough to naturally control his low-HP state. But he was blind now. He had no such ability in this state. Moreover, he knew that he would have to report back to the Novice Village if he was hit even once again. However, he still had a safety net. Shi Hao could save him. To be precise, Shi Hao’s Water Cloud Sword could save him.

“Attention! I am dying.” At this moment, Li Yidao already had no time to send a whisper. Therefore, he directly yelled.

“Oh! This guy is getting better. Even Ye Feng is not so professional.” Unfortunately, Shi Hao just smiled when he heard Li Yidao’s shout for help. Shi Hao thought about it carefully. How skilled is One Blade Hundred Thousand? How can he really be dying just facing an elite monster? Also, we have agreed before. I will not make a move before that Bandit Matron Mu Mengmeng comes out. I, Shi Hao, still haven’t forgotten this agreement.

Therefore, Shi Hao didn’t save Li Yidao and continue to watch Li Yidao’s great performance.

However, Li Yido was feeling bitter at this moment. He was also vexed. Why did he ask Shake the Heaven to not make a move until Mu Mengmeng came out? But no matter what, even though he was blind, he also couldn’t die in the hands of an elite monster.

In desperation, Li Yidao suddenly used his life-saving skill.

“Take this!” Li Yidao’s blade speed was extremely fast as he desperately swung it around him. Shi Hao was very satisfied when he saw that thickly-dotted blade light. But Brother Daitu was frightened. As for Mu Mengmeng, she found this laughable.

She smiled. Such an attractive but useless move was good for just deceiving children. After all, she was also an expert. She was able to safely retreat after exchanging dozens of moves with Li Yidao before. She finally made a move.

“Brother Daitu, withdraw, I’ll attack.” Mu Mengmeng ran out of the bandit stronghold. She was holding that big hammer in her hands with a smile, which made her look very cute. She was finally confident enough to make a move. “One Blade Hundred Thousand, you bullied me last time. Hee hee, this time, I will send you on your way. You just have to sit down obediently.”

Mu Mengmeng jumped up, raised her Big Prank Hammer, and as if descending from the heaven, she smashed Li Yidao. Upon calculation, the basic attackpower of Bandit Matron Mu Mengmeng who used a level 2 epic-grade item was 140 points. As for Li Yidao’s defense, it was 86 points and his max-HP was just 48 points. Not to mention Li Yidao who had already suffered some injuries, even for Li Yidao with full HP, Mu Mengmeng’s attack was a matter of life or death.

Merely, Mu Mengmeng’s move was destined to not hit Li Yidao. When Shi Hao saw that Mu Mengmeng had appeared and launched an attack, he naturally used the Power of Water and Cloud skill. And this skill had the ability to remove all debuffs. As a result, Li Yidao was able to see again.

“You lose!” Li Yidao suddenly took advantage of the moment when Mu Mengmeng was still in the air to turn around his horse and charge forward. Then, he resolutely made a move. The power behind that attack was just right. As long as it hits Mu Mengmeng, it would definitely make her enter the low-HP state. At that time, Li Yidao would be able to capture Mu Mengmeng and interrogate her about this strange bandit stronghold.

However, Li Yidao’s surefire attack didn’t hit Mu Mengmeng. She actually used her superb technique to use her big hammer as a fulcrum and just before Li Yidao’s attack hit her, she somersaulted back! She truly proved herself to be an expert on the level of Li Yidao.

“Don’t even think about running away!” Li Yidao was stunned for a moment. He obviously hadn’t expected such a result and he even gave Mu Mengmeng a chance to turn around and run away. However, Li Yidao had a warhorse, so, he could still catch up to her.

But some people wouldn’t give Li Yidao a chance to chase her.

“One Blade Hundred Thousand, you have to pass me if you want to hurt my family’s Big Sister Mengmeng!” Brother Daitu struggled to death, delaying Li Yidao by one second.

“Brother Daitu! You will respawn after a few days. At that time, I will definitely take you to kill this One Blade Hundred Thousand.”

In the end, just like this, Brother Daitu died and Mu Mengmeng escaped.

However, this elite monster Brother Daitu would respawn after two days just as Mu Mengmeng said. Not being able to capture Mu Mengmeng was a failure for Li Yidao.

At this moment, Mu Mengmeng, who had just experienced life and death, returned to her stronghold, pointed at Li Yidao, pouted and shouted: “Ye treacherous villain, what kind of treasure do you have? No matter what, I will definitely rob it.”

“If you can!” Li Yidao left. Mu Mengmeng would definitely not come out again. Li Yidao was perfectly clear that the mission had failed again this time.

Soon, he met Shi Hao. He glanced at Shi Hao and noticed that Shi Hao had an awkward smile.

Upon seeing this, Li Yidao also smiled. Li Yidao thought, just a moment ago, Shi Hao was unable to see his blinded state, so he was a bit too late to make a move. Therefore, he was smiling awkwardly. But this was nothing strange. They had agreed to wait until Mu Mengmeng made an appearance to make a move. Shi Hao did nothing wrong.

Merely, Shi Hao was smiling awkwardly not because of the reasons thought by Li Yidao. Even now, he didn’t know that Li Yidao’s great performance was not acting. He smiled awkwardly because he reacted slowly. When Mu Mengmeng was running away, if he had immediately equipped Cloud Mist Beast and used its slow debuff. Li Yidao would have definitely captured Mu Mengmeng.

Alas! Shi Hao was determined to not clarify this small misunderstanding even if he was beaten to death. So, he just smiled awkwardly again.

“Let’s go!” Upon seeing this, Li Yidao comforted Shi Hao, telling Shi Hao to forget about it. They then found a cave nearby, used it as a temporary residence and spent the night in peace.

Merely, Mu Mengmeng was a little unsettled this night.

If you look from a distance, you could see that Mu Mengmeng’s bandit stronghold was still brightly lit in the middle of the night. This was absolutely not normal. At this time, usually, she would have already entered her dreamland. How could there be lights everywhere? Upon a closer look, the bandit brothers in the stronghold were also very nervous.

“Big Sister Mengmeng, it’s strange. The brothers on night-duty suddenly died one after another. But there is no trace of the murderers until now.” An ordinary bandit brother said to Mu Mengmeng.

At this moment, Mu Mengmeng who was wearing pajamas and carrying a big hammer was circling around the room, carefully thinking about what was happening. Can it be that this also has something to do with that One Blade Hundred Thousand? Or, did that well-equipped guy I deceived before ran over to take revenge?

Mu Mengmeng was thinking hard, but the time passed slowly and the night was getting darker.

Suddenly, she pursed her small mouth and tightly held the big hammer. Why? Could it be that she knew who was causing trouble in her stronghold? No! She truly didn’t know. However, her intuition which was even keener than a beast told her that danger was approaching! Someone was sneaking close to her.

She was very clear that this was a dangerous situation. If she didn’t make a move in time, she, who was just wearing pajamas, would most likely be stabbed several times on the back, and that would be very tragic.

“Want to sneak attack this grandma? Courting death!” Mu Mengmeng swung her big hammer several times. She seemed to be hitting the empty air.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

In an instant, even though Mu Mengmeng seemed to be hitting the empty air with a big hammer, there were loud sounds. They were the sounds of several black-clothed soldiers being directly killed by Mu Mengmeng. The corpses of those soldiers gradually appeared, which immediately frightened the rest of the bandits.

Those bandits had never expected that people were standing beside them, but they didn’t even notice anything. This was a terrifying matter!

But Mu Mengmeng didn’t care. She smiled instead.

“Turned out to be invisible people!” At this moment, she finally understood how her bandit brothers died tonight…
