If someone loses their laptop, they can just go to the relevant department to investigate, and within ten minutes, they can retrieve their lost item, which is relatively convenient.
‘I sensed it, hostility.’
‘About 18° to the right ahead, around thirty meters.’
‘There is no surveillance here, indeed a good place for an ambush. The number of enemies perceived currently is just one, but it cannot be ruled out that there might be hidden enemies; the ambush method is yet to be determined.’
Ye Mingqiu gathered intelligence.
He took a step forward, then immediately turned around and walked back. This move seemed casual, but it was actually to intentionally deceive the opponent into making a move; if he could lure them out directly, that would be best.
If not, he could face the enemy with some preparation while maintaining distance.
As a tank with revive ability, if he doesn’t even dare to probe the enemy, he might as well hide at home and sleep.
[Tip: You have entered the domain: Mud and Dust Domain]
Suddenly, the surrounding space seemed to change, becoming cold and sticky. Ye Mingqiu’s vision also blurred, unable to see clearly too far.
“Hmm?”
Ye Mingqiu raised his hand, clearly feeling invisible resistance, as if moving through a mire; he rarely felt this kind of controlled sensation.
So this is how being controlled feels…
I hadn’t really experienced it before…
[Mud and Dust Domain: Your movement speed is reduced by 50%, activity sensitivity reduced by 50%, sound and vibrations are absorbed by domain medium, all external energy forms are suppressed and absorbed by the domain]
Is this a domain?
Ye Mingqiu couldn’t help but be secretly startled; this domain can reduce at least 60% of his combat power. Without transformation, his movement speed would be more than halved. In combat, even being slightly slower can be fatal, reducing sensitivity by 50% is almost a death sentence.
As expected, my core ability is so strong, others’ core abilities shouldn’t be weak either. It’s normal for domains to have such intensity.
Within the Demon Island dungeon, everyone’s margin for error shouldn’t be high.
Ye Mingqiu gathered a Blood Spear in his hand, looking in all directions, knowing the opponent’s position but unable to clearly reveal it, this is information that needs to be utilized.
The assailant in the dark is very vigilant, not overly pleased by the prey being trapped in the domain, they skillfully manipulate the domain and use core ability related to the domain, constructing invisible threads within the domain, then slowly walking out from the dark.
The person wore a hood, with a black mask covering their face, clad in a heavy coat, making it difficult to discern their specific physique.
‘This is false.’
Possessing Hostility Perception, Ye Mingqiu can clearly sense that the opponent doesn’t have subjective malice, just a fake shell with the true body still hidden in the dark.
Really troublesome enemy.
Ye Mingqiu slightly furrowed his brows, looking at the approaching person, asking, “You want to attack me?”
“Lend me fifty Order Points, and I’ll let you go.”
He spoke in a heavy voice.
“You think you have me cornered?”
“You have already fallen into my domain, and under both being at initial Level 1, your abilities can’t exempt my domain. If a real fight ensues, your outcome might not be too good,” said the hooded man.
“Is that so?”
Ye Mingqiu chuckled, starting to suspect that the opponent might be secretly releasing some abilities, seemingly negotiating while preparing behind the scenes.
If he guessed correctly, the opponent’s active ability to detain isn’t strong, most likely they can only control, and direct output isn’t high, so they need time to maximize control and kill the enemy without much output.
But there’s also the possibility it’s a trick, a trap to provoke Ye Mingqiu into making the first move.
Both are possible
Or perhaps both are the answer
[Tyrant Form]
Ye Mingqiu instantly activates the ability, rapidly expanding his body in an instant, growing over two meters tall, his muscles becoming more solid, basic attributes greatly enhanced, abnormal status resistance and control effect resistance significantly increased.
In this state, the control effect of Mud and Dust Domain can no longer reach 50%.
“Is it a transformation type ability?”
The hooded man didn’t panic; he simply clenched his fist and assumed a combat stance, seemingly unafraid of a direct assault.
“Ha!”
Ye Mingqiu laughed as he stepped forward, but the next moment felt a tearing pain in his legs, blood lines blossoming on his legs, as if hitting a blade.
Is this… a binding type ability?
Further restricting my movements?
“Now you are already a caged bird, your exclusive cage has been crafted, surrender,” said the hooded man.
“Are you joking!”
Ye Mingqiu laughed heartily, moving directly against the cutting damage from the threads, those threads didn’t fully tear his muscles, only leaving wounds on him.
His body was stained with crimson blood, but his momentum increased without a hint of fear, instead feeling exhilarated from it.
This made the hooded man feel uneasy.
‘Is this a Berserker type guy?’
‘Does strength increase with injury?’
He speculated internally, frowned slightly; for someone like him specializing in control type, encountering a Berserker type, it’s indeed a tough battle, the opponent’s health bar might resist control as it depletes, then rush over for a direct kill.
This is unfavorable.
After the opponent used transformation ability, resistance to domain’s negative effects obviously increased significantly, judging by subsequent performance, there might be other hidden cards.
After a brief thought, the hooded man’s true body swiftly retreated without hesitation.
‘Running so decisively?’
Ye Mingqiu mused, then laughed heartily and threw the Blood Spear, directly targeting the fleeing direction of the hooded man’s true body, putting all his effort into it.
“Hmm?”
The hooded man felt startled, but didn’t overly mind this attack; after all, the opponent is a melee type fighter, long-range weapon throw presumably wouldn’t cause high damage.
With such a distance, and my domain’s slowing effect, it shouldn’t be difficult to handle.
Thus, he raised his hand, invisible threads forming a wall in front.
‘Using this type of attack on me, presumably he doesn’t have other long-range means, this level of attack surely…’
“Snap!”
A sharp sound rang, cracking the threads as they were pierced, then the Blood Spear pierced through the thread wall in the hooded man’s incredulous gaze, finally striking his chest.
‘Are you kidding?’
‘What level of attack is this?’
‘Isn’t this weapon too abnormal?’
The hooded man widened his eyes in anger, never imagining the weapon could break through his multiple thread defenses, impaling him directly.
“Damn…”
He murmured, looking at the wound in his abdomen; although he tried avoiding vital areas, he still sustained significant injury.
The hit from the Blood Spear directly took away 68 Life points from him… most of his life gone.
No!
Isn’t this weapon’s strength abnormal?
The hooded man pulled out the Blood Spear, then fled further into darkness in disarray.
Ye Mingqiu reached the position amidst domain slowing, the opponent already escaped.
“Runs real fast.”
He couldn’t help but curse quietly.
In the Dream World, his abnormal status resistance is still too low. If it was reality, same-level enemy’s domain couldn’t possibly slow his movement speed so significantly, thus escape wouldn’t be possible.
Ye Mingqiu picked up the Blood Spear, droplets of blood rapidly absorbed into its surface; Blood Spear not only possesses damage ability, it can also absorb enemy’s blood, converting into his own life force.
At the moment, although the Blood Spear didn’t kill, the weapon internally gained 8 Life points.
