151: Chapter 151 Are you a sore loser?
Chen You turned a deaf ear to the surrounding noise and fervor.
He was like a superstar standing in the center of a concert stage, surrounded by countless fanatical fans.
But his gaze only fell upon the small virtual screen in front of him.
It was a message from Arrow of the Moon.
Clearly, a member of Moon Gods Radiance had noticed him and quickly passed the news up.
Chen You's fingertip tapped lightly on the screen, and a line of text was sent.
[Chen You]: To witness Guild Leader Yue's elegance in person, I naturally had to come.
A polite remark, neither warm nor cold.
Atop the mountain peak, the cold wind was biting.
Arrow of the Moon looked at the message, her delicate eyebrows arching slightly.
Elegance?
She looked down at herself, then glanced at the muscular and burly Titan Guild Leader, Salos, not far away.
Naturally, she was more pleasing to the eye.
A hint of expectation suddenly rose within her heart for some reason.
Beside her, an Elven scout in charge of intelligence reported in a low voice, "Guild Leader, Chen You has rejected all party invitations from players along the way and is currently alone..."
The scout paused, "His speed isn't fast, it's like he's taking a stroll."
Arrow of the Moon was somewhat puzzled.
Strolling? At a time like this?
She suppressed the doubt in her heart and sent another message.
[Arrow of the Moon]: The world boss is no small matter; an extra person means extra strength. Are you interested in forming a party? We can share intelligence.
She believed this proposal was very sincere.
Of course, this would also allow her to learn more about Chen You.
However, in the next second, the other party's reply popped up.
[Chen You]: Thank you for the kind offer, Guild Leader Yue, but I'm used to being alone.
The refusal was crisp and direct; he didn't even bother to find a tactful excuse.
Arrow of the Moon stared at the line of text, momentarily dazed.
She knew that further invitations would be useless.
Taking a deep breath, she closed the chat window, a complex emotion flashing in her deep blue eyes.
This man... does he really think he can suppress the Three Great Divine Races alone?
...
At the foot of the mountain.
Chen You closed the chat window, but seeing the surrounding players, he almost couldn't keep a straight face.
He even saw an unknown wizard performing a shamanic dance while sprinkling green powder on him.
The wizard was mumbling, "The big shot's luck is with me, help me get a lucky drop in one go!"
Chen You silently moved a bit further away from him.
He checked the time; there were only ten minutes left before the Shadow Monarch's descent.
Just then, the entire Wind and Snow Divine Mountain shook violently!
Atop the peak, the energy fluctuations of the shadow pillar connecting heaven and earth suddenly surged by several orders of magnitude!
"Roar—!"
A roar, unlike anything a mortal creature could produce, came from the top of the light pillar.
Every player, whether the elites facing off at the summit or the cannon fodder struggling at the base.
At this moment, their souls trembled, as if they had been locked onto by something.
The sky darkened in an instant.
It wasn't dark clouds blocking the sun, but the light itself being devoured by a higher-dimensional power.
Above the Wind and Snow Divine Mountain, the massive phantom of the Shadow Monarch began to sway.
What... is going on?
It's not time yet!
The leaders of the Three Great Guilds—Salos, Arrow of the Moon, and Oro—all had solemn expressions, gripping their weapons tightly as the energy within them surged to the limit.
An array formed by tens of thousands of elite players stood ready.
The great battle was on the verge of breaking out!
However, the Shadow Monarch's eyes, capable of making heaven and earth tremble, didn't linger on them for even a second.
His gaze pierced through layers of space, bypassed the tens of thousands of elites, and accurately locked onto the black-robed figure surrounded by the crowd at the foot of the mountain.
He opened his massive mouth, and as if venting eons of accumulated fury, unleashed a thunderous roar that echoed throughout the Source Realm!
"Chen— You—!"
These two words exploded like thunder from the nine heavens!
It wasn't a mental transmission, but a physical sound wave!
Atop the peak, the thousands of Three Great Guild elites closest to him were instantly shocked by the sound wave until they bled from their facial orifices, a series of damage numbers floating above their heads.
The faces of Salos, Arrow of the Moon, and Oro also turned pale.
The three of them were completely stunned.
What's happening?
The world boss is... calling someone out?
Before they could react, a blood-red world announcement flashed across everyone's vision!
[World Announcement: Due to the "Shadow Monarch's" immense fury, his descent coordinates have undergone an unpredictable shift! Adventurers, please take note!]
[World Announcement: ...]
[World Announcement: ...]
The announcement was broadcast three times in a row.
Coordinates... shifted?
Arrow of the Moon suddenly looked up at the towering phantom of the Shadow Monarch.
She saw that the figure, massive enough to obscure the sky, began to turn illusory and transparent after letting out that roar.
"Not good!" Oro, the leader of the Shadow of Roman, was the first to react, crying out in alarm, "He's running away!"
Running away?
A world boss can run away?
In the next second, a sight they would never forget occurred.
Atop the peak, the Shadow Monarch, who was about to fully descend, vanished into thin air amidst a violent spatial distortion.
He vanished!
It was just like a network lag, suddenly disconnecting.
At the summit of the Wind and Snow Divine Mountain, tens of thousands of top elites looked at each other in bewilderment.
The muscles on Salos's face twitched.
Arrow of the Moon's deep blue eyes were filled with confusion.
Oro's expression was as if someone had struck him hard with a staff.
Were we... played?
Meanwhile, at the base of the Wind and Snow Divine Mountain.
The originally overcrowded crowd was instantly cleared out as if by an invisible giant hand.
A massive circular clearing with a diameter of over three hundred meters appeared out of nowhere.
In the center of the clearing stood a lone figure.
Chen You.
He was looking up at the sky with a speechless expression.
A massive, suffocating shadow was slowly coalescing.
It was precisely the Shadow Monarch who had just vanished from the mountaintop!
His crimson eyes, burning with fury, were fixed intently on Chen You below.
It was as if he were looking at a mortal enemy who had dug up his ancestral graves.
At this moment, the entire world fell into a deathly silence.
At the foot of the mountain, the hundreds of thousands of players who were lucky enough not to be cleared away all stood with their mouths agape, their eyes filled with horror and disbelief.
Hundreds of thousands of eyes stared blankly at the sky, then back at the lonely black-robed figure on the ground.
Their brains collectively crashed.
The base of the mountain, which had been chaotic just a second ago, was now so quiet that a pin drop could be heard.
Only the wind and snow remained, blowing against Chen You's moyuan star river robe, stirring ripples of dim starlight.
He looked up, meeting the giant eyes burning with crimson flames; his face was expressionless, but his heart was already ranting wildly.
No way, this is possible?
I only destroyed one of your evil contracts and purified one of your projections. You're a dignified Monarch, why are you so vengeful?
Even playing at precision air-dropping?
Are you a sore loser?
