Chapter 226 -223 Yo*lah you (3rd update!)

The Stink Bomb… This item was just requested by Jiang Qiao from Zhao Mingwei, who generously sent one to Jiang Qiao via email.

As a game GM, having to ask a player for an item in the game… Jiang Qiao felt somewhat reassured.

Because the Stink Bomb was an item purely created by the players themselves, its components were quite simple: monster dung mixed with a special plant root extract that intensified the stench.

This particular Stink Bomb, apart from its metallic outer structure being of Holy Spirit material, contained contents all from Biland Island.

“Can you replicate this item?” Jiang Qiao handed the Stink Bomb over to Hai Lan.

Ever since the players arrived on Biland Island, they had started gathering various materials from the island to create items, equipment, alchemical potions, and even alchemical machinery, which were only a small part of the efforts.

Jiang Qiao did not restrict the players’ creativity as long as they did not produce anything that could disrupt game balance.

“It’s… too complicated. If you want to achieve the effect of this item, a lot of things need to be restored,” Hai Lan said, somewhat powerless.

It did not surprise Jiang Qiao that Hai Lan found the structure of the Stink Bomb complicated, as when Hai Lan and Jiang Qiao had constructed the Holy Spirit’s original world… they actually built it very “crudely.”

For instance, the world of the Holy Spirit did not contain any microorganisms because these were deemed unnecessary for the players.

The Holy Spirits also had no sense of smell…

But the world of Biland Island did.

“At the very least, how much Creation Energy is needed to restore its original effect?” Jiang Qiao knew that what Hai Lan cherished was her own Creation Energy.

Over half a month, accumulating from Jiang Qiao’s reserves and the players’ earnest exploration, the Creation Energy he held had broken through the one hundred thousand mark, reaching one hundred and twenty thousand. Jiang Qiao had not invested this Creation Energy into expanding the inner world.

“A bit,” Hai Lan’s voice was so soft, Jiang Qiao could barely hear it.

“Replicate twenty thousand, and I’ll send them to the players via email. If you don’t want to do it, I will,” Jiang Qiao commanded.

“I know, I’ll do it,” Hai Lan replied.

Hai Lan’s pupils gradually turned a pale gold color and the Stink Bomb was also engulfed by a pale golden light… The next second, the Stink Bomb disappeared from in front of Hai Lan, and a new email appeared in Jiang Qiao’s inbox.

‘Gift from Kitty: Dear Holy Spirits, should you encounter monsters you wish not to fight, please use this to drive them away, meow~.

Receive Item: Stink Bomb x20.’

“Now the game has truly begun,” Jiang Qiao said.

With the Stink Bomb from his backpack in hand, he looked down at the Abyss Temple stronghold, now completely overrun by the monster army, and jumped straight down.

……

Denghis Xisi really admired the capabilities of the Holy Spirits, and he meant it sincerely. His fondness was not because of how mighty the Holy Spirits’ powers were, but rather… because they were cool.

In the magic that Denghis Xisi was familiar with, most spells were developed to kill enemies quickly and accurately, with the mightier magics having stronger destructive forces, mostly involving various explosions, landslides, floods, etc.

Very plain, yet extremely practical.

The powers wielded by the Holy Spirits, however?

They were flamboyant.

Denghis Xisi had never seen battle skills as flashy as those of the Holy Spirits… like their Sword Qi, Holy Light, Power of the Four Holy Beasts, Power of Ghost God, Power of Mind, and what they called ‘skills’ were all more stylish than the next.

It wasn’t just him who liked them… his apprentices liked them too, so…

“I really admire you guys,” Denghis Xisi said.

He was standing in a cavern. The players of the Abyss Temple had cleverly embedded Stonehenge-like outposts into caverns on either side of the canyon.

This way… even if the outpost walls were breached, they could still hold out in this cavern.

After all, as long as the ancient tree didn’t explode, the outpost could be rebuilt no matter how many times it was destroyed.

The exterior structures of the Abyss Temple had been completely destroyed… whether it was the walls, ore fields, herb gardens, blacksmith shops, or the sculptures they had painstakingly built.

Now, the only intact building inside the outpost… was the Stonewood Ancient Tree located behind Can Xin.

“All your comrades have turned into tombstones, do you still plan to continue?”

Denghis Xisi stood in front of Can Xin, hands behind his back, looking at him; now, around Can Xin were only gravestones, as the elite expedition team from the Abyss Temple had already been completely wiped out by his forty apprentices.

And the hundreds of monsters outside the cavern.

Now, only Can Xin was left.

“The guild leader, this BOSS sure talks a lot.”

“You guys also talk a lot! All of you, go run the corpse.”

Can Xin blabbed crazily in the guild channel, then after finishing, he ran to the Holy Spirit Guild tear-it-up group to tag all members, asking for help, but the replies were all…

‘I’m busy.’

‘Let me have dinner and I’ll log on.’

‘Farewell, farewell!’

‘I’m already on the way.’

“Damn, a bunch of fair-weather friends and pigeons! Luckily, villains also like to blab when they’re winning…” Can Xin, holding his Magic Wand, focused intently on Denghis Xisi in the distance, along with his apprentices and the Magic Thief criminals behind him.

Can Xin’s awakening had already been used, and all major abilities had entered cooldown. Defeating a lord-level BOSS and a group of elite mobs was nearly impossible.

“I believe we can continue the previous agreement,” Denghis Xisi said, not giving Can Xin time to turn the tables, as he and his apprentices copied Can Xin’s abilities.

The strongest power of the Holy Spirits… named awakening, was still beyond their grasp, even Denghis Xisi couldn’t master the Holy Spirits’ awakening abilities.

Primarily because their contact with the Holy Spirits had been too brief.

“If you’re waiting for your allies to arrive, please give up on that idea. Their own strongholds are being attacked by dozens of monsters, and the road here is occupied by hundreds of creatures from Biland Island. They are very aggressive,” Denghis Xisi said, urging Can Xin to give up resisting.

“Right! Is that quest with the Molten Core Dragon still valid? How about we join forces again? I definitely won’t stab you in the back this time,” Can Xin said.

“Of course, welcome, but we still need to destroy that ancient tree behind you.” Denghis Xisi knew the reason Can Xin was refusing to leave “Someone must be inside that ancient tree, right? You can take the person in the tree with you, I promise not to harm her in the slightest.”

Damn! I want to get Fureya out of here too!

But I don’t have Fureya’s guiding stone!

Can Xin also felt a bit nauseous… If he had Fureya’s guiding stone, he would have taken his own Fureya and fled long ago instead of sticking around this godforsaken place.

But Can Xin couldn’t explain that to Denghis Xisi…

“So, is there no deal then?” Can Xin asked.

“I am not asking for your opinion, but… I pity you… Holy Spirit,” Denghis Xisi said, just as an apprentice hurried over from outside the cave and whispered in his ear.

“Damn! The villain’s babbling time is over! What do we do, guild leader!”

“I told you to hurry and run the corpse, stop watching the cutscene!” Can Xin, watching gravestones scattered about, felt slightly desperate.

Meanwhile, Denghis Xisi turned to leave the cave, leaving behind orders for his apprentices and the criminals to destroy the ancient Tree of Tenacity.

Behind Denghis Xisi, the sound of exploding magic erupted once again, while the steps of his accompanying apprentice hastened.

“Teacher, those Holy Spirits are breaking through our lines faster than we anticipated,” said the lookout apprentice.

“Each possesses different powers. Breaking through is normal, the key is to master as many of the Holy Spirits’ abilities as possible in this battle,” Denghis Xisi said.

“But… but these Holy Spirits charged all the way here… none of their abilities were useful,” the apprentice said just as Denghis Xisi stepped out of the cave.

The moment he stepped out, a strange object hurled towards him. Denghis Xisi instinctively swung his Sword Qi, splitting the object in two.

But in the moment it split, the object completely exploded, splattering Denghis Xisi’s face.

What the hell is this?

Soon, the stench flooding his nostrils let Denghis Xisi realize what had splattered on his face!

Shit…

He was stunned… Denghis Xisi had seen the Holy Spirits’ evil and cruel powers, but he hadn’t anticipated such disgracefully dirty tactics from the Holy Spirits.

“The final BOSS is here!”

“Throw the damn thing!”

“Isn’t this thing supposed to be for dragons?”

“Who cares! Just throw the damn thing!”

As Denghis Xisi watched in despair… hundreds of foul-smelling bombs fell towards him and his apprentice.

These despicable Holy Spirits! That was the only thought Denghis Xisi had at that moment.
