    Due to Qin Feng Yi’s first live broadcast, her poprity was through the roof garnering arge audience, and many guilds that hadn’t started pioneering were basically all paying attention to this pioneering effort.


    At this moment, they couldn’t figure out how this guy, who needed ropes to stabilize himself, would kill an elite under these circumstances.


    Many people watching the TV were equally puzzled and didn’t know what Li Yao was going to do.


    Qin Feng Yi voiced everyone’s confusion, “In your current state, how do you kill elites, and what is our role on this slope?”


    Li Yao took out another bundle of ropes from his backpack, threw it over the tip of the dome, then said, “You all down there, melee attacks by the Mindless One go without saying, you just directly output damage. As for ranged monsters, they’re Mage type creatures, I’ve tested it before, the monsters in this area are all Fire magic, he will probably release a Fireball every twenty seconds, a Rain of Fire every thirty seconds. Your position is good and the distance is far enough, as long as you see him casting, you can easily dodge.”


    Staring innocently with her big eyes, Ding Meng Bianbian asked confusedly, “I know how to output damage, but I want to ask, big brother, how can we be assured of outputting damage to elites safely, Mages are okay, but in closebat, they can kill anyone in seconds, we can’tpletely dodge.”


    Li Yao nodded and said in the team voice chat, “Shadow Dance, you wanted to learn techniques, right? Now, let me tell you a principle. Every profession has hidden attributes.”


    “Hidden attributes?” Shadow Dance was confused, and not only him, everyone was confused.


    “Yes, hidden attributes.” Li Yao said, “For example, hunters, I’ve discovered a hidden attribute. That is, they can make many traps themselves, and these traps, in addition to the traps’ inherent properties, also benefit from the hunter’s attribute bonus.”


    “The traps of the hunter already enjoy the hunter’s attributes bonus, so what hidden attribute does this count as?” Ding Meng Bianbian raised a question.


    “The traps I’m speaking of are homemade traps, not skill traps. A few days ago, I practiced a two-level rogue and then changed to a hunter, both roles used homemade traps to kill creatures, but I found that the same traps, the hunter’s homemade trap was much more powerful than the rogue’s homemade trap. And a very simpleparison, samesso, a hunter using a rope has at least triple the durabilitypared to a rogue.” While Li Yao was exining, he had turned the other end of the rope into a workingsso.


    Having been the Thief God in his previous life, Shadow Dance’sprehension abilities were amazing. He quickly understood the usefulness of this hidden attribute and even theorized that a hunter using a crossbow would definitely be more formidable than other professions.


    “What hidden attributes does the rogue have then.”


    Li Yao just smiled faintly and said, “I only yed rogue for two days, how would I know? But based on the experience of hunter, I can at least be sure of one thing. Everyone knows that the attack speed of some weapons in the game is fixed, and under the same attributes, when a rogue uses a short weapon, his attack speed is faster than other professions. For instance, rogues should be the most flexible when using hook locks.”


    Of course, Li Yao knew that each profession had hidden attributes, but too many people were watching this broadcast, he couldn’t appear too advanced, posing as if he understood everything.


    “Now, I finally understand.” Ding Meng Bianbian’s eyes sparkled and she said, “No wonder ah No wonder, I said Brother’s attributes are much stronger than a warrior of the same level, but using a melee weapon, the normal damage doesn’t standout, now it all makes sense.”


    “My water friends are throwing a fit, some say this enlightening, trying things while watching the broadcast. Others say you are showing off, hoping that you can prove it.” Qin Feng Yi watched the barrage ofments and ryed.


    “My trap is ready, I will prove it now.” Li Yao cautiously loosened the rope around his waist. Now his feet were pressing on the edge of the tform, his body looked like it was hanging on the cliff, and his entire face was turned downwards.


    At this moment, the weight of his entire body was supported by the waist rope. If the rope broke, he would fall.


    Under these circumstances, Li Yao could see the number of elite patrols on the tform below.


    The elves’ buildings were very tall and grand, and still retained the temple style of the Ancient Times. The distance from the tform to the top was at least forty or fifty yards, and the normal height of a High Elf was no more than two yards.


    The area of the tform was also veryrge, probably over a thousand square meters in reality, and nearly thirty were randomly patrolling on the tform.


    After careful observation, Li Yao adjusted his angle slightly. Thesso in his hand slowly hung down.


    Thesso was kept approximately five yards above the Mindless One’s head to avoid being detected by the creature.


    A momentter, a Mindless One holding a shield and one-handed sword walked underneath thesso.


    Li Yao held his breath, thesso in his hand suddenly swung and then he abruptly rxed a section of rope.


    Now, whether it was the yers in the live room or the people watching on TV, everyone held their breath. Thesso swung like a swing and then suddenly fell down, uratelynding on the Mindless One’s neck.


    Then Li Yao hastily tightened the rope and suddenly pulled hard.


    The unprepared Mindless One was pulled off the tform by a strong force, then Li Yao’s rope loosened.


    Only the creaking sound of the taut rope could be heard, as the Mindless One was left hanging in mid-air constantly struggling, and his struggles were futile. The other end of the rope was tied to the top of the dome, unless he broke free or cut off the rope, there was only the fate of being hanged.


    “What are you still dazed about? Hurry up and output damage.” It was too difficult for Li Yao in his current state to output damage. Seeing that his teammates below were still gaping, he urged them.


    “Oh, oh.”


    Ding Meng Bianbian was stunned by the sight, hearing Li Yao shout, she quickly ced the Fire Snake Totem, while she rapidly fired Lightning Arrows.


    Qin Feng Yi cast a Curse of Aging to weaken the monster, then released a Bone Spear.


    Although their equipment and levels were exceptional, facing an elite that was five levels higher than them, the damage output was pitifully low, only pitiful nine-point, ten-point numbers.


    The HP of a level ten elite was alreadyparable to a level five boss, close to four or five thousand.


    Even Shadow Dance, not wanting to be left behind, pulled out a double-handed crossbow and constantly fired, with quite urate aim.


    “I go, it can be done like this.”


    Watching the level 10 elite getting tossed around, the live chat was immediately filled with rows of “66666666”.


    “I’ve learned so much, thank you, master. This is the most exciting pioneer live stream I’ve ever watched.”


    “I hear someone’s gold is ready to be wagered, hope they don’t run awayter.”


    “That’s secondary. The important thing is what KB, our ‘Women’s Best Friend’ , said. If Prairie Fire could pioneer the level 10 dungeon, KB would bow down and be his little bro.”


    “Looking forward to KB getting down.”


    The folks in the live chat are all for stirring up chaos. Meanwhile, in the TV studio, KB’s face darkens watching the scene. He was just joking about bowing down, but who knew Tian Na would take it seriously.


    Then, during the live interview, the matter was disclosed. Prairie Fire even said he was waiting for KB to be his little bro.


    “Cough, if this continues, Prairie Fire could really seed in pioneering.” Tian Na teased KB with a smile.


    KB’s face darkened further, he coughed lightly and said, “That’s not necessarily the case. The monsters in ‘The Ancient God World’ are exceptionally intelligent. Look, although the elite that’s being hanged is struggling, it starts to use its one-handed sword to cut the rope around its neck. Look, as I said, the creature’s intelligence is very high. It sessfully severed the rope and fell, um…”


    He could not continue as the elite monster that fell to the ground had died.


    After suffering a considerable amount of damage, the level 10 elite only managed to cut the rope and fell vertically from a few hundred yards high,nding below the slope and reducing its life to nil.


    If it weren’t for their inflicted damage, the elite would have some health left upon falling. It would have then directly charged at them, and they would certainly be killed instantly.


    “Wow, the experience is so high. Just from killing one monster, I gained 2% experience. It’s fantastic.” Daimeng Tongtong excitedly yelled, “Little Shadow, quickly loot the corpse.”


    Shadow Dance sprinted to loot the corpse, then handed over two silver coins and a level 10 Green Equip to Tongtong. Tongtong nodded in satisfaction, looking every bit the leader she was.


    “Big bro, quick, move on to the next one.” Tongtong shouted. They would just need a few dozens of these monsters to level up.


    “Wait a moment. I will prepare anothersso.” Li Yao prepared anothersso and within a minute, he hadssoed another elite.


    Li Yao’s team began to kill monsters to their heart’s content and his sess in monster-killing had practically exploded the entire world.


    Other administrative region guilds were also watching and immediately sprung into action. Some guilds even stopped pioneering their level 5 dungeons and, like Li Yao, began to attempt level 10 ones.


    Time passed slowly and Li Yao’s team efficiently cleared the first tform.


    At the TV studio, Tian Na said to KB, who was growing increasingly sullen, “The sess of Prairie Fire has set the world ame. Now, many anchors have sent messages saying that almost allrge guilds and clubs have sent teams to try this method of pioneering.”


    Then, the screen changed. Some guilds were powerful enough to actually bring in a bed crossbow. But, even if they had learned the climbing skill, the steel arrow would loosen before they even managed to climb up. The yer would tragically fall from a great height, and their ughtered soul would return to the graveyard.


    These weren’t isted incidents. There were many such scenes of elite guild members attempting and failing, falling to their deaths. This caused audiences in front of the TV to schadenfreude bursts ofughter.


    Some guilds were smart and let the agile thieves climb. The thieves seeded, but they didn’t know how to make asso; they were always busy wrestling with it.


    Finally, a thief from some guild learned how to make asso, only to discover a variety of other mishaps.


    After endless attempts, a thief finally managed tosso an elite. However, some thieves forgot to let go and fell together with the elite monster. The oue: the thief died on impact, and the nearly dead elite ughtered the teammates who were prepared to deal damage.


    But there were too many yers and too many experts. Sess was bound to happen eventually. However, their sess only confirmed that Li Yao was right.


    Not mentioning other administrative regions, but in China, a thief from the


    Brilliant Guild, after several attempts, perfectlyssoed and suspended an elite.


    But before the teammates below could deal damage, the rope broke, leading to yet another tragedy.


    The failures of various guilds led to the previously marginalized Hunters suddenly bing popr. Suddenly, all the guilds started recruiting elite


    Hunters.


    “After watching other guilds attempt to pioneer in the same way, I understand the difference between a master and regr people. What Prairie Fire did looked simple. The first tform, nearly thirty elites, not a single failure. But look at the other guilds; their losses were too heavy.” Tian Na watched the tragic scenes still being broadcasted.


    Although KB’s face was dark, he still exined, “Don’t take it as simple. It requires many skills. And let me remind you, those being ughtered by monsters aren’t average yers but elite squads and professional yers from variousrge guilds and teams.”


    Tian Naughed lightly, “Are you defending Prairie Fire so much because you’ve already be his little bro?”


    KB shook his head and said, “I admit Prairie Fire is very powerful, but that’s it. He cannot reach the second tform. The first tform is t, so a bed crossbow can’t shoot to the top of the second tform. Although you can put it on the dome of the tform, neither a person nor a crossbow can stay there. If he cannot use a bed crossbow to connect to the second tform, the method of clearing the first tform is useless.”


    “What if Prairie Fire has a new method?”


    “Impossible. Do you truly believe he’s a god with endless tricks up his sleeve? Fan Tiann,” KB retorted, feeling a burden lift off his chest.


    Tian Na shook her head and said, “I just texted Xiayao. She said Prairie Fire had already figured out how to reach the second tform.”


    Uh-oh…


    “I don’t believe it.” KB’s face, which had just turned less sullen, immediately darkened again. It felt like he was on the verge of a blood-spitting rant. This was just too much of a p in the face. He had hardly finished speaking!


    Meanwhile, the audience watching the live stream was in a daze, beginning to specte and imagine how they could reach the second tform…
