Chaos Lord: Infinite Guidance

Chapter 35 Climbing the City Wall to Kill Fire Ducks

As the system notification sounded, in Wang Jue's vision, light mist churned in the chaotic star sea, and from the light mist, one after another, birds burning with orange-yellow flames appeared in all directions.

Those birds were, of course, Fallen Fire Ducks. They were small, only the size of a volleyball, very fat, with empty eyes and stiff movements, like zombie ducks. Because of the orange flames burning on their bodies, they looked like some kind of yellow bird from a distance.

"They're here!"

Wang Jue was overjoyed.

Fallen fire ducks are everywhere, and new ones keep appearing. Some fly high, some fly low. Judging from the sight, the highest one is probably only about ten meters above the ground, while the lowest one is only about five or six meters above the ground.

Wang Jue's courtyard wall is six meters high, and if everyone stands on it, they won't have to worry about not having enough fire ducks to eat.

"Oh, these city walls are great! Without them, standing on the ground, wouldn't we just be staring blankly?"

Odron was also beaming with joy; he had already equipped himself with a slightly worn-out longsword.

"The rankings won't be released for another three hours? I think I could make the list..." Bandhu looked at Wang Jue, "Can I be credited for killing the scarecrow?"

"I don't know."

Wang Jue replied casually, his gaze then turning to Bafang Bubai, thinking that he would soon see her make her move.

"You lecherous lord, you're spying on my wife!" Bandhu muttered.

Audron glanced at Invincible Eight Directions with interest and asked, "Brother Tiger, is she your wife?"

"Of course! Isn't she beautiful? She was even more beautiful when she had long hair. It's all that lecherous lord's fault for tricking my wife out of her long hair!"

"The scam's over? What do you mean...?"

"I can't explain it to you in just a few words. Come here, and I'll tell you quietly!"

"OK!"

Odron then moved closer to Bandhu.

Wang ignored the two men. He looked around and saw that the fence was useless. The number of Fallen Fire Ducks was enormous, surging in from all directions in a terrifying display.

Suddenly, Bafang Bubai flicked his long sleeves and shouted, "The moon is dark and the wind is high; the time is perfect!"

After saying that, he raised his hand, and a red shadow flew out from his sleeve, while a line of text appeared above his head: "A branch of red apricot"!

If the image were to freeze, one would see that the red shadow was a section of a flower branch. But upon closer inspection, it would be clear that it was a throwing knife shaped like a flower branch, about twenty centimeters long, without a handle, with a forked blade, and delicate little red flower buds attached to both sides, making it quite beautiful.

This is the unique hidden weapon of the invincible Eight Directions, also known as the Myriad Flower Flying Knife.

The throwing knife was incredibly fast, like a streak of light, flying 300 meters in an instant and turning a small yellow duck into a flash of white light.

"Ding, kill +1!"

In the distance, a line of small characters appeared.

"Holy crap, my wife hit that far!"

"What? The battle has already begun?"

Bandhu and Odron exclaimed in surprise.

With an aloof expression, Bafang Bubai turned around gracefully, flicked his skirt, raised his arm, and once again used [A Branch of Red Apricot]!

That move of his can hit a target 300 meters away!

300 meters away, another little yellow duck was turned into white light.

Invincible Eight Directions continued his attack, turning and throwing knives in a flash, swish, swish, swish, swish...

Every strike is deadly, and none miss their mark!

At this moment, it was entirely a one-man show by Bafang Bubai.

"Awesome!" Odron clapped and cheered!

"Beautiful!" Bandhu couldn't help but clap his hands and jumped up and down in approval.

Wang Jue nodded repeatedly as he read.

A moment later, when the army of fire ducks flew closer, Bafang Bubai no longer needed "A Red Apricot." He said a line, waved his hands, and this time flung out a colorful array from his sleeves.

"Spring flowers are in full bloom!"

Four large characters floated up from above the heads of the Eight Directions Invincible.

Ordinary players couldn't see it clearly at all. This time, Bafang Bubai threw out 30 throwing knives. These throwing knives were different from the ones before. They were also shaped like flower branches and were also called Wanhua Flying Knives. However, there were flowers of various colors on the blades, including red, yellow, pink and purple. When they were thrown out, they scattered in a fan shape and landed in the flock of fire ducks, instantly creating a "Kill +1" effect!

If you count them carefully, there are a total of 30 text prompts!

One "kill +1" means killing one Fallen Fire Duck. The move "Eight Directions Invincible" killed 30 Fallen Fire Ducks in one go.

Without stopping, he swung "A Branch of Red Apricot" and then, about ten seconds later, used "Spring Blossoms in Full Bloom" again, flicking his sleeves to release 30 throwing knives.

This time, another 30 Fallen Fire Ducks were killed.

"My wife is amazing!"

Bandhu jumped around with great joy.

After a while, the army of fire ducks flew even closer, and Invincible Eight Directions used a new skill.

This time, he pulled up the bright red robe he was wearing, turned around and flicked it, then put it back on. The movement was elegant and the power was astonishing. A full hundred throwing knives flew out from the bright red robe, carrying flowers of various colors, a riot of colors, blooming on the ground.

A large number of "Kill +1" statuses appeared. The move "Invincible in All Directions" cleared out a small area, killing a total of one hundred Fallen Fire Ducks.

Bandhu and Odron were both really excited watching it.

Wang Jue silently summarized: "A single-handed turn and sleeve flick is [A Red Apricot], which can reach 300 meters; a two-handed sleeve flick is [Spring Blossoms], which can reach 100 meters; a turn and robe flick followed by clothing is [A Riot of Colors], with a range of about 30 meters. The Undefeated Eight Directions also has a move called [Flying Flowers and Falling Leaves], could it be a close-range skill?"

Just as Wang Jue had imagined, the Fallen Fire Ducks were numerous and respawned quickly, making them virtually inexhaustible. When a Fallen Fire Duck approached within five meters of Bafang Bubai, Bafang Bubai would stop his dancing-like sleeve-swinging and clothes-flicking, and instead push and change palms, like practicing Tai Chi.

However, miraculously, countless petals and leaves suddenly appeared around Bafang Bubai. This scene was because Bafang Bubai used the [Flying Flowers and Falling Leaves] technique.

As he moved, the flying flowers and fallen leaves seemed to receive a command, spinning, swirling, and rising, one by one, petal by petal, like flying knives and sharp blades, transforming into tornadoes or waves, annihilating all the fallen fire ducks within five meters of the invincible figure.

"Kill +1"

"Kill +1"

"Kill +1"

A dense barrage of notification text appeared, and the Fallen Fire Duck, which was close to the Invincible Eight Directions, was quickly killed like a moth drawn to a flame, and then vanished in a flash of light.

"A top-tier master, terrifyingly powerful!"

Wang Jue sighed, feeling invigorated by what he saw, and then roared, "Everyone, stay away from Bafang Bubai! Be careful not to get hurt!"

In fact, Bafang Bubai's [Flying Flowers and Falling Leaves] would not cause any accidental damage, because all the petals and leaves were under his control. However, the scene was terrifying, and Wang Jue thought it best not to let others disturb Bafang Bubai.

"Meow!"

"Grandpa's asking you, money or your life! Chop the meat!"

"Give me some food!"

"Murlocs are unkillable!"

"My name is Jason the Carp!"

"My name is Nyanko-sensei!"

"My name is Bandhu!!"

"Ah, I... my name is Odron!"

Shouts rang out, and the invincible Eight Directions Flying Flowers and Falling Leaves enveloped him within a five-meter radius, but this could not eliminate all the Fallen Fire Ducks. As more Fallen Fire Ducks approached, Mad Dog King and the others also got busy.

Bandhu and Odron also quickly attacked the nearby Fallen Fire Duck.

The scene immediately became incredibly lively.

Wang Jue noticed that the old beggars were still kneeling and begging before the Fallen Fire Duck, and quickly shouted, "Stop begging at a time like this! Pick up your sticks and beat them!"

The old beggars then got up and started swinging their sticks idly.

Their combat effectiveness is utterly appalling.

Wang Jue couldn't help but shake his head, thinking to himself that this old beggar was only good as a special forces soldier; he was really terrible at frontal combat.

And on the city wall, there was an even more peculiar creature than the old beggars: the murloc chieftain Sharion.

While Jason the Carp and Sika the Catfish next to him knew how to throw punches, this guy just posed like a bodybuilder, shouting his lines loudly, saying "Fishmen are invincible," but never actually hit the Fallen Fire Duck.

"Shallion, this isn't a bodybuilding competition, stop being so cocky and get to work on the ducks!"

Wang Jue shouted, and Sharlion, stunned, flexed his biceps at Wang Jue, defiantly saying, "Murlocs are invincible!"

"You son of a bitch!"

Wang Jue laughed in anger, thinking to himself that he must teach this merman chieftain a lesson when he has the chance.
