Spider Cave 2

"I think we'd better not offend this person," Tian Qi said with a serious tone. His words were directed at the three of them, but his gaze was fixed on Yue Zhongmian.

"Yeah, a hand speed over 170, that's a real master!" Another person agreed.

"170 is just a conservative estimate. He's now a solo player with no equipment and he's already performing a quadruple stab in mid-air. I'm afraid his hand speed must be over 200?"

"A hand speed of 200... I'm afraid only our guild leader has that level, right?"

"Not only should we not offend him, but we should also try to recruit him."

"With such skills, I think he must already have a strong background."

The group discussed fervently, only Yue Zhongmian remained silent. He understood all these points. In fact, after running so many dungeons together, Yue Zhongmian's resentment towards Ye Kai had faded. If he could successfully get that guy killed once, it would be completely satisfying. But now, knowing that this person was a master, and feeling the pressure to deal with him, the grudge in Yue Zhongmian's heart was stirred up again. He couldn't quite explain this feeling himself; it was a mix of envy, jealousy, and hatred. Just as he was about to say something, he saw his three brothers were all admiring Jun Mo Xiao's monster-slaying, exclaiming in amazement. Yue Zhongmian quickly turned to look and realized that they had reached the Spider Cave, where this person's strong skills were truly on display.

The monsters in Green Forest were too weak, and Jun Mo Xiao's attacks were so powerful that the monsters were quickly annihilated, which didn't show much. The bosses had more health, but it was just a mob fight, nothing remarkable. But now, seeing him soloing the tougher-skinned spiders, his skill level was clearly evident.

"The combo has already reached 17 hits."

"It hasn't stopped since the quadruple stab in mid-air..."

"It seems he used the wall's rebound to connect with a normal attack and an uppercut."

"I really thought he wouldn't be able to continue after that sky strike."

"So beautiful."

The three couldn't stop praising, which made Yue Zhongmian feel uncomfortable. He walked over to speak, but Tian Qi had already turned to face him: "Listen to me, don't mess with this guy anymore. If you're unhappy, just ignore him, I'll talk to him about the rest!"

Yue Zhongmian silently nodded, feeling a bit sour inside. He knew that Tian Qi and the others were ready to recruit this person. What guild wouldn't want to snatch up a player with such skills? In comparison, he was just an ordinary member of the Moonwheel Guild; no one would go against such a master for his sake.

"Nicely done!" The green spider was killed by Jun Mo Xiao in one go, and Tian Qi and the others immediately surrounded him with praise, which came naturally because his skills were truly impeccable.

"Brother, I just realized how extraordinary you are!" Tian Qi said.

"It's nothing." The man was still indifferent, seemingly unfazed by the praise, just as he had been by Yue Zhongmian's previous traps.

"Brother, are you a pioneering expert from another guild?" Tian Qi asked, but he felt it was unlikely. Would a guild member be so alone? This person was probably a solo player.

"No, I'm on my own." As expected.

"Really? No guild? With your skills, it's hard to find even with a lantern, how come no guild is fighting over you?" Tian Qi feigned surprise.

"It's a new district, there are no guilds yet," Ye Kai said.

Tian Qi was taken aback. There were no guilds in the new district, but what about the old ones? Surely such a master wouldn't have just started playing Glory! But since the man didn't say, Tian Qi guessed it was very likely he had some unpleasantness with his original guild and had left in a huff to play in the new district. This was an opportunity! It was the perfect time to make him feel the warmth of their Moonwheel Guild family.

"Which district were you in before, brother?" Tian Qi started the question game.

"I haven't played for a long time." The answer was off-topic, and the question game was stuck at the first question.

"Oh..." Tian Qi could only respond with that, wondering how to break through in the conversation. Tian Qi was scratching his head.

But it seemed that the other party wasn't too interested in chatting and continued to lead the way. This time, however, Tian Qi and the others closely followed Jun Mo Xiao, treating him as the core of the team. Yue Zhongmian felt awkward but could only remain silent.

With this master in the team, the dungeon progressed extremely smoothly. The antidotes they brought were not used at all because Jun Mo Xiao would attract all the spiders' aggro to himself and then dodge skillfully with moves, rolls, and jumps. Sometimes, the four of them would even get lost in Jun Mo Xiao's magnificent techniques and forget to fight the monsters.

"I remember there are a lot of spiders ahead, and once you kill the first mini-boss, another one will appear, and it's random whether it's poison or webs, which is a difficult point in this dungeon. We..." Tian Qi was saying when he saw Jun Mo Xiao had already charged forward, so he had to change his words: "Alright, let's go..."

Tian Qi's memory was correct; there were indeed many spider minions in this part of the cave, a total of seven, three with poison and four with webs, and with linked aggro. As soon as the group approached, the seven spiders charged out together.

"Let's go!" Tian Qi called his three brothers. He had no face to direct Jun Mo Xiao, whose skill level was far above his own. However, with a total of seven spiders here, Tian Qi felt that even with Jun Mo Xiao's high skills, it was impossible to attract all the aggro, especially since they were only level ten and didn't have the skills to pull aggro in groups. So he called everyone to move forward to share the pressure with Jun Mo Xiao.

Then they heard a "whoosh" sound. Jun Mo Xiao shook his spear and made a wide half-circle, hitting four spiders at once, two charging and two spitting webs. Jun Mo Xiao took a small hop backward, dodging two spider webs while turning in mid-air, shaking his spear again, "puff puff" two spiders behind him each took a hit, and after landing, he rolled to the side, avoiding the webs spit by the hit spiders, and with a sky strike, the seventh spider was picked up into the air, unable to spit its web.

Tian Qi and the others were instantly disheveled by the wind.

"Is this even human??" They all wanted to say this, but with Glory's current voice system, saying it would let the person hear, which didn't seem too good. But apart from this phrase, there were no words to express their feelings at the moment.

"180-degree sweep, damn!" They could only express their feelings through private chat by typing.

"A small back jump with a mid-air turn, and still able to accurately stab twice!"

"The timing of the sky strike after the roll was just perfect, maximizing the air time."

"This isn't human!!" They unanimously concluded. All these techniques were combinations of basic moves, but not everyone could pull them off. Take the 180-degree sweep, for instance; it's just a normal attack, but the sweep depends on how you swing the mouse. The faster you swing, the wider the arc, and it also depends on the character's attack speed and other attributes. At level ten, being able to perform a 180-degree sweep is not something an ordinary person can do.
