103: Chapter 103 The Gauntlet Battle

Vase: "What's going on? My Crew Members died instantly!"

long time ship: "Mine too, died instantly."

Samo: "Same here, all dead."

Chen Fan narrowed his eyes, opened the surveillance video, dragged the time to the last five seconds, and turned on slow motion.

Under ten-times slow motion, a red light could be vaguely seen flashing past.

Immediately after, over eight thousand Crew Members, along with the S-Class Crew Member, died suddenly.

Chen Fan dragged the progress bar again to just before the red light flashed and turned on one-hundred-times slow motion.

After waiting for nearly a minute, the red light flashed again.

Instantly, he pressed the pause button.

This time, he saw clearly what this red light actually was.

"A panda?"

He raised an eyebrow.

A tall red figure, holding dual blades and clad in armor, was frozen in mid-air.

What was surprising was that the head atop the armor was actually a panda's head.

The panda's body was burning with flames, and it swung its flaming dual blades, slashing at the S-rank Ship Captain's head.

The moment he unpaused, the panda leaped back and forth over the heads of thousands of Crew Members.

In just an instant, all the Crew Members were killed instantly.

"What is this thing? How is it so terrifying?"

Chen Fan clicked his tongue in wonder.

He roughly understood that the opponent was using a skill similar to Powerful Strike.

However, this damage area was far more terrifying than Powerful Strike.

Over eight thousand Crew Members, when lined up, occupied over ten thousand square meters.

This panda could actually wipe them out in one hit?

Just how large was its skill range!

Shaking his head, Chen Fan shouted in a low voice: "Continue!"

The Five Women responded immediately, and over eight thousand Crew Members assembled again.

Clack, clack—

Just as they walked to the gathering place of the corpses, the eight thousand people were instantly killed again.

"I don't believe it, can you really cast this skill infinitely?"

Chen Fan snorted coldly, and eight thousand people assembled again.

After repeating this ten rounds in a row, the corpses of eighty thousand people almost blocked the road completely.

However, the opponent was still tirelessly casting the skill.

Even through the wall of corpses, it still instantly killed the Crew Members.

"Damn it, can you cast it without vision?"

Chen Fan gritted his teeth in anger and was about to order them to continue.

A breeze blew by, and a green figure carrying a faint fragrance appeared.

"Stop wasting your time; there's something strange here."

Lairuilei stood beside Chen Fan and gave him a look.

"What?" Chen Fan was a bit confused.

"The recording, let me see."

"Oh, okay."

Chen Fan nodded, opened the recording, and paused it at the moment the panda appeared.

With just one look, Lairuilei exclaimed: "Xin!"

"Xin?"

Chen Fan raised an eyebrow, "You know him?"

Lairuilei nodded, took a deep breath, "So he has awakened too."

After pondering for a moment, she continued: "It's called Xin, also known as the Ember Spirit, and it holds the inheritance of the Fire God."

"No, that's not right. He hasn't awakened yet!"

Lairuilei frowned and pointed at the somewhat illusory panda head, "This is just a remnant soul."

"A remnant soul?"

Chen Fan exclaimed, "A remnant soul is this powerful?"

"Yes, Xin in his prime was about two levels higher than me. Even as a remnant soul, his level should still be higher than mine."

"However, even in his prime, he couldn't cast Shadowless Fist so many times in a row. I don't know why the remnant soul here is like this."

"Two levels higher, that means SSS-Class."

Chen Fan nodded slightly, a trace of seriousness flashing in his eyes.

His gaze inadvertently glanced at Chris and Kadel.

"Why look at me? I'm a support."

Chris chuckled, hands in his pockets, and lifted his chin, signaling Chen Fan to look for Kadel.

Kadel sneered, "Sneaky, see if he dares to stand out and fight me one-on-one."

After saying that, he tilted his head back again and drank the strong liquor in the bottle in one gulp.

Upon hearing this, Chen Fan's eyes brightened a little.

Kadel meant that as long as this Xin dared to come out, he could handle it.

With this, Chen Fan felt much more confident.

The next task was to lure him out.

Since Lairuilei had said that Xin's Shadowless Fist had limitations.

Then he could use a human-wave tactic!

Chen Fan grinned, organized the eight thousand people into 20 groups of 400, and moved them forward in batches.

His goal was clear; since any number of people would be killed instantly, he would send them in batch by batch.

20 batches of people were enough to form a complete chain.

Just as the first batch died and went down from the warship, it would just happen to connect with the last batch.

"Let's see how many rounds you can cast."

Snorting coldly, Chen Fan immediately gave the order.

The first batch of the suicide squad began to dash forward.

...

Just as Chen Fan was using the war of attrition, the Players entering the Night Instance for the first time encountered big trouble.

[District 444]

"F*ck, why are these monster fish acting like they're crazy? Hey buddy, can you even chew through a sailing ship?"

[District 486]

"No! No, no! There's something in the shadows attacking me."

[District 666]

"Why do they have cannons? It's over, one shot blasted apart half of my ship."

[District 10000]

"Watch out, there's a pirate ship! My night vision goggles saw them, they have cannons!"

[District 10086]

"Wow, how disgusting."

"These pirate ships are hiding in the shadows and firing sneak shots; there's no way to dodge."

[District 10010] Channel Chat.

"@goddess ship, Boss, it's bad! My ship is about to fall apart!"

"Mine too, Big Sister Head, what should we do?"

"@goddess ship, it's a good thing Big Sister Head didn't come in, otherwise it would be trouble."

"The person above, what are you saying? Big Sister Head would sweep through everything the moment she came in, it's the truth!"

goddess ship: "Didn't I tell you there were pirate ships? How did you still get hit?"

"I'm wronged, Big Sister Head. These pirate ships are hiding in the dark, you can't see them at all."

"Yeah, when we heard the cannon fire, the cannonballs were already crashing in, there was no way to dodge."

Luo Shen gritted her teeth, "Repair the ships quickly, hold out for an hour and you'll be able to get out. Those without supplies, ask your team leaders!"

"Yes! Long live Big Sister Head!"

"Boss is awesome!"

goddess ship: "Stop messing around, all of you hold on for this lady. I told you the information in advance; whoever dies, don't say you're this lady's subordinate afterward!"

Closing chat, Luo Shen pondered for a moment, opened the private chat window with an unnatural expression, and pitched her voice.

"Bro... Brother, my subordinates encountered pirate ships, can you teach us how to fight back?"

After sending the voice message, Luo Shen dry-heaved a few times, showing an expression like she was constipated.

On the other side, Chen Fan, who was still enjoying the war of attrition, raised an eyebrow, feeling a bit schadenfreude:

"How many people died?"

Luo Shen's expression stalled, and she glanced at the regional chat window.

"Not many, a few hundred, but many people are struggling, and if it's not resolved soon, there will be mass deaths."

Chen Fan chuckled, knowing that goddess ship had lied.

You know, when they in District One entered the dungeon for the first time, it was total annihilation; very few survived.

Current Players, the mainstream level is basically small to medium sailing ships, and the elites are only large sailing ships.

Those small sailing ships, once they enter the Night Instance, are like a single leaf of a boat, dying on sight.

After thinking for a moment, Chen Fan looked at the Crew Members getting off the ship again, "The second favor?"

Luo Shen gritted her teeth, pitched her voice unnaturally, "Yeah, Brother, just tell me."
