In just a few seconds, Huang Yi managed to kill two people, achieving a glorious victory. Chen Yuxi and his companions not only dropped their equipment but also lost levels, greatly weakening their strength, while Huang Yi’s power had increased tremendously, especially in terms of attack power, which had nearly doubled. With the diminishing of one side and the rise of the other, Chen Yuxi and his group could only be instakilled by him.
"Fuck your mother!!" Seeing his two brothers dead again, Chen Yuxi’s eyes nearly burst with rage as he glared at Huang Yi and cursed loudly, charging at him with a pair of fists, ready to fight him to the death.
Huang Yi simply extended a claw and slapped him to death.
After Chen Yuxi died, he dropped a piece of armor, which was second only to a weapon in importance. Huang Yi quickly gathered the spoils on the ground and chose to put them all on!
With this, his strength soared once more, with his attack power breaking through 1000 without a doubt!
Now, Huang Yi had equipped weapons, helmets, rings, belts, necklaces, and armor—six parts in all, having collected a small set. Killing Chen Yuxi and his group a few more times would almost be enough to assemble a full set, and his strength would skyrocket once again.
Chen Yuxi and his companions were like a warehouse, where one could freely take from unless they could reincarnate and respawn randomly at some corner of a continent in The Second World, thus completely avoiding Huang Yi, the God of Slaughter.
"Instakill has come! Instakill has invaded Wind Forest Stronghold! Everyone come out and kill him!" Just then, a thunderous shout came from the northeast, filled with endless rage and hatred, echoing in all directions—it was none other than Chen Yuxi’s voice!
Huang Yi turned his head to look. In the northeast of Wind Forest Stronghold, there was a platform surrounded by a barrier of white Holy Light. Chen Yuxi and his group were loudly yelling within that barrier, their roars spreading throughout Wind Forest Stronghold.
It seemed that the platform was the respawn point, and Chen Yuxi and his group had not reincarnated, but respawned there, losing another level.
After Chen Yuxi and his group’s outcry, Wind Forest Stronghold instantly became alert; lights were lit in the darkened wooden houses, one by one, as black windows turned to orange-yellow.
Wind Forest Stronghold had awakened.
Having actively killed Chen Yuxi and his group just now, Huang Yi had accrued Sin Value, with a faint red aura of blood qi enveloping him, unable to dissipate. It was easy for others to see that Huang Yi was in a Sinful State, and they could easily band together to attack him!
Upon death, a criminal faces steeper death penalties according to their Sin Value, losing more levels, and dropping more equipment. Should the Sin Value accumulate to a certain extent, a player could drop all the way to Level 1 upon death and lose all equipment, essentially starting over.
Huang Yi’s situation was very dangerous right now. He had killed people in Wind Forest Stronghold, a blatant provocation, and the guards would definitely not let him go!
"What’s going on, how did Instakill invade?"
"Where’s Instakill? I can’t seem to find him."
"Instakill actually came to Wind Forest Stronghold? Let’s hurry and have a look!"
Some NPC civilians and players were startled by Chen Yuxi’s shouting, waking up from their sleep, opening their windows, walking over to the side to look down, while others made their way to the streets.
"Da da da!" Soon, teams of Half-Beastman Guards began to assemble, and all the defensive fortifications of Wind Forest Stronghold were activated, with torches being lit on all the watchtowers, illuminating the entire place brightly.
"He’s near the Slaughtering Cow Inn!" Chen Yuxi stood within the tall Respawn Point, loudly reporting Huang Yi’s location.
Upon hearing this, the crowd moved from all directions towards Huang Yi. Wind Forest Stronghold was only so big, and now it was lit up bright with torches—Huang Yi remained standing in the same spot without any intention to flee, and he was soon spotted and encircled by the crowd.
The majority of these people were golden-skinned Half-Beast Players, mostly there to watch the excitement—just standing at a distance, pointing and commenting with curiosity in their eyes, not approaching him for an attack.
Huang Yi, like a rare animal, was scrutinized by the crowd, everyone eager to see what this world-shocking figure actually looked like.
Huang Yi stood motionless, calmly observing the surrounding spectators. Some players did not hide their information, and their levels were easily visible, including some high-end players in their level 30s and 40, with shiny and bright equipment, far beyond the ragged Whiteboard items Huang Yi had.
"Make way, make way!" At that moment, a group of Half-Beastman Guards carrying brightly burning torches arrived, making their way in from the outside of the crowd.
The Chief Guard was a towering Half-Beastman, over four meters tall, wrapped in beast skin shorts, his right hand wielding a Wolf Fang Club over two meters long, smeared with dried blood and bits of flesh. His golden skin under the flickering flames appeared as though covered with a layer of gold, demonstrating his toughness and strength. He gazed down at Huang Yi and boomed, "You must be Instakill! Chen Yuxi and the other two said you stole their Spirit Cat. We were about to come looking for you, but here you are, delivering yourself. Well now, I shall preside over a fair judgment. Hand over the Spirit Cat and I will decide its fate."
Huang Yi examined the Guard Captain carefully. Although he could not see the Guard Captain’s level, just the sight of this large and towering figure made it clear that he was no match for him now—a single hit from the Guard Captain could probably smash him into a pulp. However, he was not in a rush; if he couldn’t beat him, he could still dodge.
"Captain, it was him! He killed us in the forest just now and stole our Spirit Cat. You must deliver justice for us!" At that moment, a voice came from outside the crowd, followed by Chen Yuxi, Icy Greatsword, and Skull approaching, standing beside the Guard Captain with smug looks directed at Huang Yi.
The Chief Guard nodded in mock seriousness, then immediately pointed his huge Wolf Fang Club at Huang Yi and declared, "Instakill, the facts are largely clear now. You stole the Spirit Cat from Chen Yuxi and his group, and then you killed them—it’s a grave sin. I’m giving you a chance to repent. Hand over all your treasures and we might leave your body intact!"
"Instakill, the Guard Captain has spoken. His judgment is always fair, never biased. Hand over the treasures quickly or when he starts, you won’t even be able to find your corpse!" Chen Yuxi, standing next to the Guard Captain, watched Huang Yi with a vengeful gaze.
"Of course, if you don’t hand it over, it doesn’t matter. We still have ways." Skull let out a cold laugh, "You killed a level 250 BOSS, you must’ve gotten something good. Now that you’re in a Sinful State, there’s a high chance we could loot it if we kill you!"
