Chapter 21: Pain Sensor System

The boss didn’t act normally! How was he supposed to fight with it?

Youyou sprinkled a packet of wound medicine on her injury and said helplessly, “I’m sorry. There’s an error in the information I had. Didn’t my master say that Chen Ming doesn’t know how to use concealed weapons? His concealed weapon skills are extremely high-level… He could even predict my movement… ouch!”

As she was speaking, Youyou’s face had already turned extremely pale. Huge drops of sweat dripped down her forehead. However, she gritted her teeth and forced herself to not make any sound.

Ye Weiming exclaimed in surprise when he saw this, “Young lady, did you activate the pain sensor system?”

“If you activate 100% of the pain sensor, you can use your will power to immunize a portion of the freezing time after you’ve been hit… Also… yes, the speed of cultivation for the technique you used during a battle will increase by 20%… There’s no reason for me… not to activate it!”

She made so much sense that Ye Weiming actually felt speechless.

“But, you’re in so much pain that you can’t move normally. Hurry up and turn off the system!”

To protect the players, the pain sensor system in this game could be turned off anytime after it was activated. However, every time after it was turned off, the system had to cool down for 24 hours before it could be activated again. When one activated the system again, one had to be in a non-battle situation.

Youyou nodded slightly. She immediately went to the system backend and chose to turn off the pain sensor system. The excruciating pain that almost caused her to turn crazy immediately subsided like the waves of the sea. Finally, Youyou felt her nerves relaxing. She felt so comfortable she heaved a sigh of relief.

Although she turned off the pain sensor, Youyou was still in a heavily injured state. Her various attributes dropped by half of their normal value, so she could only rest on the spot. Because she was in battle mode, she couldn’t accelerate the recovery of her blood through meditating.

At this moment, the system suddenly notified them that they had left the battle mode.

Ye Weiming didn’t feel any hint of happiness when he received this notification. Instead, he couldn’t control his emotions and scolded, “This irritating bastard. At first, I wanted to rush out and fight with him one on one after he finished firing the seven arrows on his crossbow. At this distance, I have full confidence that I will be able to catch up with him within the three seconds of reloading time.”

By this time, Youyou had already sat down cross-legged on the ground. She started meditating so that her injury would heal faster. However, this didn’t prevent her from interacting with Ye Weiming on the team channel. “The capacity of the Zhuge Celestial Bow is 13 arrows, not 7. I didn’t give him the chance to finish all his arrows in one go, so you only saw him firing 7 arrows at once.”

Then, she started sharing information about the Zhuge Celestial Bow with Ye Weiming. She appeared a little ashamed as she said, “I’m sorry that I dragged you in this. Actually, they suggested that I should form a team to complete this mission, but I don’t trust the other people in my clan. I have no other friends in the game too… Let’s not talk about this. Now, the moment we pop out head out from behind the pillar, we will get into battle mode again. We won’t be able to fight against his arrow skills and we can’t outrun him either. What a dilemma!”

“Arrow skills? Him?”

Ye Weiming laughed uncontrollably. “Don’t make me laugh. From the battle just now, I could tell that that fellow doesn’t know how to use concealed weapons just like what you said. He wasn’t aiming at all. All he did was randomly shoot!”

Youyou widened her eyes when she heard this. “Then, his prediction just now…”

“He was just lucky.” Ye Weiming shrugged. “You have been fighting with him for quite a while. During this time, he shot almost 20 arrows at you. It’s not hard for one arrow to hit you, right?”

Youyou’s eyes lit up. “That means that…”

“That means that the effects of your amazing movement technique will be heavily discounted in front of him.” Ye Weiming mercilessly struck down the young lady’s unrealistic illusion. “He might not even know where his next arrow will land, so how are you supposed to predict where they will land?”

“If it was a normal crossbow like the one you have in your hand, I could try to predict its landing based on the path of the arrow and its speed. In that case, I would be able to use my sword to flick the arrow away. However, the speed of the arrow shot using the Zhuge Celestial Bow is too fast. I can’t do it at all.”

Youyou sighed. “You can even analyze these things so clearly. It looks like you’re the real master of the game.”

Ye Weiming chose to smile and not reply to her. Was he supposed to tell her that his concealed weapon skill was on par with Chen Ming’s? When he was fighting with Chou Ba in the past, he relied on his luck.

Youyou remained silent for a few moments before asking in the team channel again, “What should we do now?”

“Besides the crossbow, do you know how to use other concealed weapons? The kind that you can throw with your hands.”

Youyou replied directly, “No.”

Ye Weiming couldn’t help but tease her. “Really? You’re a disciple of the Tang Clan but you don’t know how to throw concealed weapons?”

Youyou replied, “Do you know how to use guns? I mean handguns.”

Ye Weiming answered, “No. Why?”

Youyou continued, “You’re an official but you don’t know how to use a gun. As a disciple of the Tang Clan, what’s wrong with me not knowing how to throw concealed weapons?”

“Nothing is wrong. You can heal your injury first.”

…

Youyou sat for more than 10 minutes while Ye Weiming protected her at the side. At the same time, he was in charge of watching over the boss’s movement in case that despicable fellow took this chance when they let down their guards to circle around them and fire some arrows at them.

Based on Ye Weiming’s observation, this boss was more obedient. Or rather, he might have been more cunning and had more endurance.

From the moment the two of them hid behind the pillar, he had been holding his crossbow and standing in the middle of the main hall without moving at all. Not even talking about moving around the pillar and attacking them, he didn’t even attempt to use his crossbow to damage the pillar that was concealing their figures.

This allowed Youyou to be able to regain full health smoothly, but at the same time, Ye Weiming couldn’t find a chance to get near the boss using his tactics.

He tried to activate the active effects of ‘Daizhong Way’ to attract the boss over, but he received a notification from the system telling him that the distance was too great. He didn’t fulfill the requirements for activating the skill, so he had to give up on this thought.

Half an hour later, Youyou regained full health. She stood up and the situation of the two sides went back to the starting point. The only change was that they had moved from outside the main hall to behind the pillar. They were slightly closer to the boss now.

She moved her head out swiftly to take a look at the boss that was still standing in the middle of the hall. Then, she quickly pulled her head back and said to Ye Weiming, “What should we do now? You have a better understanding of the game compared to me and you’re the team leader too. I’ll listen to your command for the battle later.”

Ye Weiming rolled his eyes when he heard this. “Didn’t you say that you were a professional a moment ago? Why is your understanding of the game not as clear as a normal player like me?”

“I’m a professional special force soldier. Is there a problem?”

“No problem at all!”

After hearing her reply, Ye Weiming finally understood why he found the way she held the crossbow and the way she moved so familiar. These were the actions done by the characters in action films, war films, spy films, and sometimes, some superhero films. However, instead of a gun, she held a crossbow and the costume was an ancient costume, so he didn’t see the connection immediately.

He stopped thinking about the lady’s profession and said, “Someone with a background like yours is always the main character in the early part of a novel. I don’t have to say much about your understanding of timing and opportunity. Later, I will go out and distract him. You will act accordingly and create chances for me to get close to him.”

After he finished speaking, he shifted his internal energy to his feet and executed the ‘Eight Step Chasing Toad’. He left the cover of the pillar.

“Hey bad guy, your grandfather is here!”
