Chapter 84 First Floor Boss's Strategy Meeting!
🕑 Added 2025-10-21 23:13:43 +0000 UTCSeeing Yusei completely disregard them, the short, spiky-haired man at the lead stepped forward, pointing at Yusei and shouting loudly.
"Don't go too far. Opposing all players? You're bringing about your own doom. I will bring justice for everyone!"
Clang.
Yusei coldly turned his gaze towards the spiky-haired man. His voice was faint as he said, "What's your name?"
"I'm Kibaou... What do you want?"
The spiky-haired man named Kibaou, seeing Yusei stand up, hurriedly retreated.
Yusei saw this, a trace of contempt flashing in his eyes.
"With courage like that, you want to bring justice for others?"
"Nonsense. Hurry up and hand over your equipment and money, then apologize!" Kibaou’s face flushed with shame and anger. He shouted, straining his neck.
The other troublemakers had come mainly out of jealousy towards the Beta Testers. Now, seeing Kibaou taking the lead, they also started shouting.
"Hand over the equipment and money!"
Shiro looked at this group of jealous players, a hint of cold indifference appearing on her small face.
"Nii, can we eliminate them?"
As she spoke, Shiro had already drawn her short sword, seeming ready to fight at a moment's notice.
Kibaou and his group were startled and quickly drew their own weapons.
"Let's leave it for now. We can't easily fight in the town, the system has automatic protection." Yusei smiled and patted Shiro's head.
"You! Are you implying you want to kill us in the wild?"
"I didn't say that. Don't slander me. But if you keep barking in front of me, I can't guarantee what powerful boss you might encounter in the wild."
As Yusei spoke, he drew his katana and placed it in front of him.
"What are you trying to do? The town doesn't allow you to harm players!" Kibaou looked at Yusei with a fierce but weak expression.
"Don't you know? While players can't harm each other in town, if both parties agree, then it's not a problem."
Yusei revealed a smile, but it seemed somewhat cold and grim.
"Take a careful look if there's a Duel option. The rules are clear inside. It's even possible to fight until one side dies."
Kibaou felt an inexplicable chill upon hearing Yusei's words. Beads of cold sweat rolled down his forehead, and he gulped hard.
And right at that moment, a duel invitation popped up on his game screen.
[Player 'Yusei' has sent you a Duel Invitation. Do you accept?]
Kibaou was startled. He hadn't expected the other party to actually challenge him to a duel. Having been in the game for these past few days, he was clear about some basic rules.
Knowing didn't mean he dared to accept. Even though he had stepped forward to make a scene, he wasn't stupid.
Anyone could tell that someone who could eat lavishly in such a luxurious place was a wealthy, despicable Beta Tester.
Beta Testers didn't just monopolize the best resource points.
Similarly, they had been exposed to the game for a longer time, played more, and had better skills.
If he agreed to a life-or-death duel with him, wasn't that pretty much the same as sending himself to his death?
Yusei saw the fear and hesitation in Kibaou’s eyes and sneered, "Weren't you going to seek justice for ordinary players? Then why don't you dare accept? All my money will be yours."
"You..." Kibaou was forced back by Yusei's intimidating presence, stumbling until he bumped into someone behind him without realizing it.
Among those players, there were no lack of hot-tempered ones. They looked at the hesitant Kibaou with dissatisfaction.
"Kibaou, go on! What are you afraid of? After winning, force him to tell us the good resource points. We'll make a huge profit!"
"That's right! Kibaou, hurry up and accept!"
The players watching the excitement now started to egg him on.
Kibaou's face was flushed with shame and anger. He looked around at them, "My... my equipment is still under repair. I need to go."
As he spoke, he didn't forget to throw a final threat at Yusei.
"One day, you Beta Testers will be boycotted by everyone!"
Watching Kibaou flee in panic, Yusei shook his head disdainfully. He had never paid any attention to such a clown from the beginning.
‘But sometimes, if you don't kill a chicken to warn the monkeys when they are jumping around, they will just keep annoying you.’ Yusei looked at them.
"Will any of you duel me? Win, and you get all my equipment and money. Lose... then exit this game!"
The noise from the crowd, which had been mocking Kibaou moments before, abruptly stopped, like ducks being choked.
No one responded. Dozens of people, yet not a single one dared to challenge Yusei, showing how terrified they were.
They weren't stupid. They knew Beta Testers weren't to be trifled with. They had only followed because they thought they could extort some money from a Beta Tester. Now, they one by one lowered their heads and quickly left.
Before long, the entire restaurant actually became quiet again.
Among the crowd of departing players, there was a short figure wearing a cloak. She had been watching Yusei with curiosity the entire time. Until all the players had left, she was the last to leave.
Half a month passed quickly.
The most widespread topic during this half month was the incident from half a month ago about Beta Testers looking down on ordinary players.
The story had been embellished by certain people, portraying themselves as the victims.
They had just wanted to ask for monster strategies, but were looked down upon by the Beta Tester and driven out.
This actually caused quite a stir in the player community. Because everyone was living under the threat of the death game, their nerves were stretched taut. Those players naturally wanted to find an outlet for their emotions.
Hating Beta Testers... became their method of venting their bitterness and despair.
Yusei was disdainful of this. In his view, it was just the wailing of the weak.
If one day someone truly raised their sword against him demanding money and equipment, he would definitely eliminate them.
Another piece of news was that the first-floor Boss Room had been found, but its strength was too powerful, requiring a coordinated effort to conquer it.
Some elite players sent invitations to the higher-level players, preparing to organize a boss strategy meeting.
Yusei and Shiro were naturally among those invited.
However, compared to attending the boss strategy meeting, he was currently more looking forward to their new equipment.
‘Weapons and armor forged from S-grade materials, taking half a month to complete… just how powerful were they?’
Today he would find out.
