    "No way! There’s no way that’ll work! A certain someone here is a piece of trash, I think we should just retreat!" Ming Du angrily shouted as he pointed at Ivory Emperor.


    The grudge between Ming Du and Ivory Emperor started a long time ago and it wasn’t something that either party could easily let go of. Previously when they had been fighting Clinton, there were a few instances where Ming Du had almost sabotaged Ivory Emperor but was stopped by Wang Yu.


    The thought of having Ivory Emperor do a task that he couldn’t greatly angered Ming Du. Even though they were ying different jobs, didn’t it mean that he was useless if Ivory Emperor could do something that he couldn’t?


    "Go f*ck yourself! You got a problem with me? Do you dare to challenge me or not? Why don’t wepete to see who has the higher DPS?" Ivory Emperor roared.


    "Do you dare to fight me in Specter Valley?" Ming Du shouted as he pointed his middle finger at Ivory Emperor.


    The other yers shook their heads in amazement. These two guys really were as shameless as each other. The three headed Gasol was practically immune to magic damage, but the monsters in Specter Valley were impervious to physical damage... they were simply trying to take advantage of the other party’s weakness.


    "Can you both shut up!" Wang Yu bellowed, ring at the both of them..


    "Er..." The duo immediately kept their mouths shut.


    The other yers heaved a sigh of relief. The deterrence effect of Wang Yu was simply too great. He was probably the only person in the gaming world that could make this pair of enemies stop arguing.


    Of course, this was because Ivory Emperor was afraid of Wang Yu’s power... Ming Du on the other hand was afraid that Wang Yu would simply kick him out of the party right before theypleted the dungeon... Wang Yu would naturally not do something so insidious, but a petty person like Ming Du would naturally assume the worst of everyone around him.


    "It’ll definitely work! Thisdy is pretty skilled!" Wang Yu exined to Fearless.


    "This..." Fearless was caught in a dilemma.


    "They’ll have to lure Gasol to the fountain, can they do it?"


    The fountain was a specialndform in this map and was even circr in shape.


    "Rx! It’s definitely possible!" Wang Yuughed.


    "Right?" Wang Yu asked Yang Nuo.


    "Hmph!" Yang Nuo coldly snorted as she red at Fearless, darting ahead of the rest of the party straight towards Gasol.


    "Hey, you can be serious right? Are you trying to get yourself killed?" Fearless sighed when he realised that this Archer had chosen to run straight up to Gasol instead of shooting arrows at it from afar.


    "It’s alright, that the way she is..." Wang Yu exined.


    "Regardless, that’s too dangerous! I’ll go drag here back!" Fearless stated as he began running in the same direction.


    "No worries, just watch!" Wang Yuughed.


    The three heads of Gasol howled as they watched Yang Nuo draw close to them. The head in the centre red at Yang Nuo as it spoke: "Despicable worm, hell is not a ce you can enter so easily!"


    Yang Nuo stopped in her tracks when she was about three metres away from Gasol, raising her bow and shooting an arrow at it.


    "Pa!"


    A silver arrow flew through the air,nding in the jet-ck head of Gasol.


    -2788


    A row of white numbers surfaced above Gasol’s head.


    "Holy......holy damage?" Fearless gasped in shock.


    Holy attribute attacks could deal bonus damage to monsters of the darkness attributes. When a yer dealt holy damage to a monster of darkness attribute, the damage would be shown in white instead of the usual red colored numbers.


    An Archer that could deal holy damage was simply inconceivable!


    The jet ck head of Gasol’s spat out a cloud of ck gas after it had been shot by Yang Nuo. Yang Nuo nimbly stepped out of harm’s way as she walked below Gasol, shooting the beast as she lured it towards the fountain.


    The other members of the party immediately ran towards the fountain, setting up their formation.


    "This woman is really strong!" Boson gawked as he watched Yang Nuo single handedly lure the boss towards the fountain.


    "That’s, that’s right!" Crotch Lord stuttered as he watched this disy.


    Yang Nuo’s movements became more apparent as she got closer to the other yers, increasing the awe that they had for her.


    "Is she kiting it?" Spring Halo asked in disbelief.


    "That’s right... she’s kiting it!" Fearless nodded.


    Kiting, was something that yers in MOBA games did to kill their enemies.


    Regardless of whether it was in <<REBIRTH or a normal keyboard and mouse game, Archers would always fight their enemy while trying to maintain the distance between them. Kiting was a high level move where the yer would retreat and shoot their enemy, bncing their attacks and their movements in order to kill the opponent without being touched themselves.


    But because of the way that the system was designed, kiting was extremely hard to perform in <<REBIRTH. This was why most long ranged yers chose to attack their opponents from a far instead. Even in normal games, other than a few top ss yers, kiting was a virtually non-existent art.


    This was an entirely different matter in <<REBIRTH altogether. The system was designed in such a way that there would be a short pause between a yers physical movement and attacking the monster, since the yer need to draw their bows. This made the thought of kiting a forgotten concept in <<REBIRTH.


    Who would have thought that thedy that they were all looking down upon could actually perform such a legendary art!


    "Uncle Bull, I’ll d I didn’t offend her..." Vainglory sheepishly said. He had always been a person that looked down on female yers, who would have thought that they day woulde that he would actually meet a female yer that was league ahead of him in terms of skills.


    "This is impossible... this is impossible..." Ivory Emperor mumbled incoherently. As the only other Archer in the party, his ego had taken a huge blow as he watched this nameless youngdy kite the boss.


    "F*ck this shit! How is this even possible? Even if she is using the Independent mode how is it possible that she is so fluidly attacking and moving at the same time? How is she kiting that boss?"


    "Oh? That’s right!" Only after they heard ivory Emperor’s words did they realise something was amiss. The assisted mode in the game made it so that yer’s could not cancel their movements at thest second and attack instead.


    "Look at her movements!" Darknorth Fisher suddenly shouted.


    "What the f*ck! This b*tch is really doing it!"


    As one of the top Archers in the game, Ivory Emperor immediately realised what Yang Nuo was doing.


    Yang Nuo was not cancelling her movements at all, she was just able to perform the preparatory motion for shooting her arrow in a split second after her foot had touched the ground... this was even more shocking than the fact that she was kiting the boss!
