Online Game: My Decay Drives the Entire Server Crazy

He waved his hand, and dozens of wild wolves near the entrance instantly rushed out, each carrying 50 layers of the Decay Debuff. Their health bars were plummeting, but they weren’t dead yet.

Zhao Kai breathed a sigh of relief upon seeing this. ”Just these few pathetic wolves? What threat could they possibly be?”

But just as he finished speaking, an elite warrior swung his sword at a charging wolf—

”Ding! Player [Invincible Blade] attacked a wild wolf infected with the Decay Debuff, triggering the contagion effect!”

Dozens of layers of the debuff instantly spread to the warrior, and his health bar began to drop rapidly.

”Holy crap! Why is my health dropping so fast?!”

”Priest! Heal me, quick!”

Several Priests quickly cast Healing on him, but the debuff’s damage was true damage, dropping dozens of health points per second—it was impossible to withstand. The warrior’s health bar emptied instantly, and he died on the spot!

”Ding! Player [Invincible Blade] has died. Level dropped: Level 9 → Level 4.”

Zhao Kai’s face turned pale. ”What’s going on?!”

Lin Ye didn’t give him time to react and lured another wave of wild wolves over. This time there were over twenty, each carrying 100 layers of the debuff.

”Brothers, don’t touch those wolves! Get away!” Zhao Kai shouted.

But there were too many wolves, and the entrance was only so wide; there was no way to dodge. Several warriors were pounced on by the wolves and were instantly infected with the debuff. Their health bars plummeted, and they died within seconds.

”It’s no use! We can’t hold on!”

”Run!”

Over fifty elite players began to flee, but Lin Ye had already set the trap—their retreat was also blocked by wild wolves.

In just one minute, all fifty-plus elite players died. Their levels dropped by at least three, and as many as five.

Zhao Kai was among them. He watched helplessly as his health bar emptied and his level dropped from 1 to 0—he had become level zero!

”Ding! Player [Master Kai] has died. Level dropped: Level 1 → Level 0.”

[System Notification: Player [Master Kai] is level 0 and has been forcibly kicked out of the Novice Village, returning to the Creation Space.]

Zhao Kai stood up in the Creation Space, looking at his level 0 status, and completely lost his mind.

”Agh—! Lin Ye! I’m not done with you!”

He frantically clicked ”Recreate Character,” but the system notified him that he needed to wait 24 hours before he could recreate it.

Zhao Kai was so furious that he smashed his gaming pod.

Meanwhile, back at the Novice Village square, the onlookers watching through the live stream were all laughing hysterically—

”Hahaha! Over fifty elites, all wiped out!”

”Zhao Kai dropped straight to level 0 and got kicked out of the Novice Village! I’m dying!”

”Brother Ye’s play is a textbook example of killing with monsters!”

”I’m impressed. This Talent is just too heaven-defying! Even wild monsters can be used as weapons!”

”It’s not that the Talent is heaven-defying, it’s that Brother Ye is too wicked! To even think of this!”

Lin Ye looked at the equipment and materials scattered all over the ground, feeling great. The items dropped by these fifty-plus elites were worth at least several thousand gold coins.

Just as he was about to pick up the gear, he suddenly saw that Zhao Kai’s ID was still online—wait, Zhao Kai had been kicked out of the Novice Village, so how was he still online?

Lin Ye opened his friends list and saw that Zhao Kai’s ID was still there, but his level was shown as ”0” and his location as ”Creation Space.”

It turned out that after being kicked out of the Novice Village, one wouldn’t go offline immediately but would be trapped in the Creation Space, waiting 24 hours to recreate the account.

Lin Ye’s eyes darted around as another wicked idea popped into his head.

He opened a private message and sent one to Zhao Kai—

[Private Message] Ye: Brother Kai, is it comfortable staying in the Creation Space?

The other side replied instantly—

[Private Message] Master Kai: Don’t you damn well get cocky! I’ll be out in 24 hours, and then I’m going to kill you for sure!

Lin Ye smiled and replied: ”24 hours? Do you think you can last 24 hours?”

[Private Message] Master Kai: What do you mean?

Lin Ye didn’t reply. He directly opened his Talent panel and found the newly unlocked effect—”Cross-Space Decay.”

This was a new effect unlocked just now while applying the debuff to the wild wolves. It allowed the Decay Debuff to cross spatial limits and take effect on targets not on the same map.
