Chapter 141: Declaration of War on the Feathered Race
Countless replies.
Huang Yunshuo scrolled from top to bottom, reading a thousand posts in one go, the corners of his mouth twitching uncontrollably.
These guys...
Are they all getting a bit too full of themselves?
Damn it, do you really think growing a pair of wings means you can actually do anything to your Brother Huang?
As a class with flight capabilities, Huang Yunshuo held high expectations for the Frost-Cold Eagle. Since it could soar through the skies, Huang Yunshuo wanted to become the master of the sky himself. Whether you grew your wings naturally or equipment granted them to you, anyone who took to the skies would have to call him Daddy.
Infatuated with mecha culture, Huang Yunshuo harbored an indescribable obsession with the sky.
If he replaced himself with Chu Jun or Ye Piaoxue, he felt the two of them might even be more extreme than he was.
This was the intoxicating thrill of impending conquest over the heavens, an unparalleled experience—all flyers were enemies, and he would charge forward relentlessly to shoot them all down!
Anyone who had never piloted a mecha in outer space would never understand this feeling.
Huang Yunshuo edited a post.
"Anyone from the Feathered Clan, killed on sight!"
Confirm.
Life was so boring; spicing things up by stirring the pot was just immensely satisfying.
Huang Yunshuo genuinely wanted to see how many meters and for how many seconds the post-update Feathered Clan could fly. What special ranged attack methods did they possess?
Don't tell him they'd be flying around in the sky holding broadswords; that would be laughably pathetic.
Melody of Forgetting published a post titled: *Sweeping Violent Output, Chronicling the Flying God of War of Sakura Terrace Town*.
Don't think that the million-plus replies on Huang Yunshuo's previous post were exaggerated.
The replies to this post had already broken the 3 million mark.
And the time since it was posted was merely six minutes ago!
How terrifying.
One had to admit that female gamers possessed truly formidable combat power. Huang Yunshuo remembered browsing various forums and communities out of boredom in the past, and at least five or six out of the ten hottest trending threads belonged to female-dominated boards.
He guessed that a huge portion of the female players in the comment sections were members of the "Melodious Anthem" guild, or fans of *Cool Melody*, uniformly posting comments like 666, impressive, I've been converted to a fan, male god, reporting, holy crap, and other exclamations of awe, admiration, and disbelief.
This left Huang Yunshuo feeling quite pleased.
Taking a closer look at this edited 3-minute short video, it was divided into three parts.
The first part, lasting 20 seconds, recorded Huang Yunshuo using his rocket launcher to rain fire down on the Little Yellow Hornets beneath the city walls, plowing back and forth across the South City.
In just that 20-second clip, thousands of Little Yellow Hornets turned into crafting materials and copper coins, fluttering down in a spectacular cascade from mid-air.
The second part, lasting 50 seconds.
This was a clip of Huang Yunshuo wind-dashing from the city ramparts to snatch the universal recovery treasure chest. It carried the exhilarating thrill of beheading an enemy general amidst a million-man army and retreating unscathed; even he found himself somewhat hyped up watching it.
Who on earth was the talented person who filmed this video?
The final part, lasting 110 seconds, recreated some of the actual combat footage of Huang Yunshuo fiercely pushing the boss Ggeulor.
The cameraman was positioned right among the group of priests, showing 60 priests divided into squads of 12, taking turns stepping forward and dispersing to cast Holy Word or replenish status buffs for him.
Without watching this video, Huang Yunshuo truly had no idea just how much damage Ggeulor had inflicted upon him.
This volume of damage was sometimes so massive that even two or three squads of female priest players couldn't keep up with healing him.
A single peck, a swipe, or a claw strike—any of those started at a baseline of 250 damage.
And just a single random attack like that required five or six female priest girls to wave their staffs together.
Especially when a critical strike was triggered, his health pool of over 500 would instantly drop to a sliver. At that moment, two squads of priests would charge forward together to cast Holy Word on him.
Even when he was pinned to the ground and stunned in place by Ggeulor's heavy leap, unable to fight back, the green numbers above his head representing Holy Word continued to tick rapidly without a single pause of a second.
Watching it again, in this 110-second footage alone, he had narrowly avoided being instantly killed at least three times, all thanks to several exceptionally skilled priests timing their heals down to the exact second.
Ocean's Voice possessed extremely high technical proficiency. Wielding the *Champion's Chant*, she only outputted damage when Huang Yunshuo's life was in critical danger; a single enhanced version of Holy Word would directly restore about 100 health points.
Once, after Ggeulor stunned Huang Yunshuo with its heavy leap, its trampling damage immediately halved his health, followed instantly by another peck and a wing-slam, with the attacks almost landing on him simultaneously.
Ocean's Voice utilized some unknown ability, stubbornly casting Holy Word three times within a single second!
And out of those three times, two were critical hits!
A single person restored 500 health points to him in one second! Just barely keeping Huang Yunshuo from biting the dust, allowing him to leisurely dust off his backside, stand back up, and continue dealing damage...
"These priests are seriously legendary."
Huang Yunshuo couldn't help but give a thumbs-up.
Then again, it was precisely because he trusted the skills and strength of these 60 female priests that he dared to brazenly get up close and personal to slug it out face-to-face with Ggeulor.
What were Ggeulor's stats? 10,000 health points, 300 attack power, and 60 defense!
Its agility and stamina didn't have exact figures displayed, but at least a few hundred was a given.
Judging solely by his own current agility of around 120, yet Ggeulor could still land critical hits on him from time to time, one could easily tell how terrifying its agility attribute truly was.
"Almost there."
Seeing that he was about to arrive at the Elephant Mine, Huang Yunshuo had to temporarily close the forum and check his inventory.
Only a single fine pickaxe remained.
He sent a private message to Ye Piaoxue asking her to mail him a few more.
"Loot distribution is done. You got 80,000 copper coins, and now I'm giving you 40,000!"
Ye Piaoxue traded 40,000 copper coins along with 5 fine pickaxes to Huang Yunshuo.
Huang Yunshuo had already gathered enough gemstone equipment, so he only wanted copper coins as his share of the spoils from Stone Terrace Town. He had notified Li Nan and the others about this beforehand.
Because of this, the copper coins in his inventory had now reached 160,000.
His credit balance, after successively receiving 6 million from Old Liao and 30 million from Fantasy Fengrong, had also transformed into 40.66 million, plus 7 silver coins.
"Now this feels nice."
He had no idea how he had managed to become dirt poor.
Nor did he know how he had managed to transform from a pauper back into a tycoon—such was Huang Yunshuo's current state.
Out of nowhere, a massive sum of money would suddenly drop into his hands; it was insanely thrilling and explosively exhilarating.
The little rooster at the entrance of the mine hadn't respawned yet, so Huang Yunshuo charged straight into the mine tunnel to start mining.
With 169 strength, which was more than half higher than the last time he visited the mine, his ore-yielding rate was bound to be vastly different, and Huang Yunshuo was somewhat looking forward to it.
Why did he run all the way here to the mine at this moment?
First, he didn't feel like farming the little white rabbits and sloths, which offered zero challenge.
Second, considering his skyrocketing strength, he wanted to come and try his luck. If he could manage to mine a Grade 7 gemstone, that would be insanely heaven-sent. He was just pondering crafting at least one more class-specific equipment piece within today, which would grant him massive stat bonuses.
Third, and the fundamental reason, was that he was gunning for the little rooster.
To this day, all players remained utterly clueless.
The Level 7 little white goose leveling zone could be found at Tiger Leap Gorge, southeast of the town.
The Level 8 little pig leveling zone could be found at the barren high flats east of the town.
The Level 9 macaque leveling zone could also be found in the vast dense forest halfway up a high mountain north of the town.
Even the elite monsters, outlaw deserters, could be tracked down.
