107: Qi Fei's ability and unexpected gains

As soon as Qi Fei and the other three entered, they saw Liu Hong lying on the ground, barely alive.

Therefore, they didn't waste a single word with Ye Xiao and immediately activated their transformations.

Clearly, they had realized the situation was extremely tricky and had no intention of engaging in any pointless verbal sparring or probing.

This decisiveness was somewhat unexpected for Ye Xiao.

Looking at it this way, Qi Fei was indeed an incredibly cautious person; the moment he sensed something was wrong with the situation, he was ready to unleash his full power.

He didn't want to give Ye Xiao any chance.

And watching the four transform into monstrous forms, Ye Xiao's expression was also a bit dumbfounded.

Although there was once a joke, 'the rich rely on technology, the poor rely on mutation.'

But it doesn't mean you have to turn yourself into a monster, does it?

Ye Xiao looked at these four hideous, grotesque fellows, on full alert, yet somewhat speechless.

Of course, more importantly...

At this moment, a big question mark hung in Ye Xiao's mind.

Why did Qi Fei and these people turn into this appearance? Such a thing had never happened in the Eternal World.

Suddenly, he remembered how much Qi Fei and the others valued Linhai Village, how they had guarded it for so many years, almost living a life of isolation.

Could it be because of this?

The more he thought about it, the more plausible it seemed, but after transforming, Qi Fei and the other three had no intention of giving Ye Xiao any time to think.

Qi Fei opened his wide mouth, letting out a beast-like roar, and his three companions immediately launched an attack on Ye Xiao.

Unlike Liu Hong's transformation...

Although these three were also incredibly ugly in their current forms, their bodies were a size smaller than Liu Hong's.

Their speed was naturally a bit faster than Liu Hong's.

In the blink of an eye, two of them had already arrived in front of Ye Xiao, their hands instantly transforming into black longswords, which they swung violently at Ye Xiao.

Ye Xiao was curious about the combat power of these monsters, so he didn't intend to dodge.

Relying on his Death Domain and three shields, he stubbornly withstood the attacks of the two.

What surprised Ye Xiao was the extreme speed of their attacks.

The moment they struck, it was a flurry of rapid blows.

Ye Xiao was very familiar with this skill; it was clearly the Warrior's 'Rapid Strike'.

After use, it deals 70% continuous damage to the same target for 1 second.

At the same time, Ye Xiao's peripheral vision caught the third person among the trio; he hadn't attacked with the other two.

Instead, after receiving Qi Fei's command, he dropped to all fours, revealing a tube made of decaying flesh on his back.

At that moment, a strange black energy gathered within the tube.

Ye Xiao didn't have time to figure out what this tube was.

The next instant, a pitch-black arrow suddenly shot out from the tube.

“Whoosh!”

The arrow tore through the air at an extremely fast speed, appearing before Ye Xiao in an instant.

This speed was so fast that even Ye Xiao couldn't avoid it.

The arrow solidly pierced through the Death Domain, directly hitting his three shields.

Bang!

The powerful penetrating force caused the arrow to forcefully break through Ye Xiao's shields, slamming heavily into Ye Xiao's body.

A string of crimson numbers floated before Ye Xiao.

The trio's coordinated attack directly depleted nearly ten thousand of his health points.

After his probing, Ye Xiao was also incredibly surprised.

Although compared to his nearly 400,000 health points, this nearly ten thousand damage was really nothing.

But it didn't prevent Ye Xiao from being surprised by it.

One must know that Qi Fei and these people were only level ninety, and they were second-tier Professionals who had not yet advanced to third-tier.

And Ye Xiao's own combat power was already beyond what Professionals of the same level could deal with.

He hadn't expected that Qi Fei and these people, after transforming, could cause him so much damage.

More importantly, Qi Fei himself had not yet attacked with them.

As their leader...

Ye Xiao had reason to believe that Qi Fei's abilities should be stronger than the others.

At this moment, Ye Xiao's curiosity about these people grew even stronger.

Where did they get such strange abilities?

To be able to give a level 90 Professional the combat power of a fifth-tier Professional?

However, compared to Ye Xiao's astonishment...

At this moment, the group, including Qi Fei, could only describe their inner feelings as shock.

As early as when they saw Liu Hong's weakened state, they already knew that the 'Xiao Tianba' in front of them was peculiar.

Although they were very cautious and had continuously overestimated Ye Xiao...

They never expected that a combined attack from several of them would only cause a small amount of damage to the opponent.

More importantly, they had already figured out that Ye Xiao was a Mage.

What is a Mage?

A synonym for squishy!

How much health does a level 90 Mage have? How could they not know?

Even with the best equipment, it's impossible to exceed ten thousand.

Yet Ye Xiao was still standing perfectly fine at this moment, how could this not shock them?

Qi Fei, who had not yet attacked, had a pair of pale, eerie eyes that suddenly twitched continuously, looking extremely strange.

Just as Ye Xiao didn't understand what Qi Fei was doing, the latter's face suddenly changed drastically, and he spoke rapidly.

“Xiao Bei, Meng Hao, run! ! ”

“This 'Xiao Tianba' has over 380,000 health points, and his intelligence is over 8,000 points.”

Qi Fei's voice was fast and urgent, faintly laced with a hint of disbelief.

And his words greatly startled the others.

Not just them...

At this moment, Ye Xiao, hearing Qi Fei rattle off his attributes as if listing family treasures, felt a tumultuous wave surge in his heart.

This Qi Fei, he could actually see his attribute panel?

How was this possible?

In the Eternal World, only Human Job Holders could see the attributes of monsters.

As for anything else, even NPC information, it was simply impossible to see.

How did he do it?

Although puzzled, Ye Xiao quickly suppressed the shock in his heart.

At the same time, his hands moved swiftly.

Streaks of fireballs shot out in response.

Fortunately, with Qi Fei's reminder, Xiao Bei and Meng Hao reacted incredibly quickly.

The moment Ye Xiao made a move, they each unleashed their movement skills and fled rapidly.

“Want to escape? Too late!”

With the projectile speed bonus from his equipment...

Ye Xiao's fireball flight speed was far beyond what these two could match.

Before the two could escape twenty meters, a sky full of fireballs had already landed on them.

“Sizzle sizzle sizzle!”

The burning flames emitted a harsh sound.

Immediately after, the two's shrill screams came from within the flames.

At this point, Ye Xiao also discovered that although these two could also transform into monsters, their defense seemed to be significantly weaker than Liu Hong's.

And they also lacked Liu Hong's strange barrier support.

Therefore, under the bombardment of thousands of fireballs...

The two quickly lost their breath.

This scene caused Qi Fei, who was not far away, and the other person, who for some reason hadn't transformed, to change their expressions drastically.

“Xiao Bei!!!”

“Meng Hao!!!”

Qi Fei's pale eyes instantly turned bloodshot, and he quickly rushed towards the two.

But Ye Xiao didn't attack; instead, his gaze was fixed on his information panel.

This sudden information made Ye Xiao freeze.

What was going on now??
