MMORPG: Martial Gamer

Chapter 1582: Drunk Deity

“What... what is he doing?”

At first, Luke was chasing after Wang Yu on the screen. Everyone was enjoying the moment. However, all of a sudden, Wang Yu was suddenly having a drink with Luke. Everyone was shocked out of their minds.

“Is this guy’s behaviour related to dealing with the BOSS, Luke?” Ma Longteng asked curiously.

As a businessman, Ma Longteng was rather sensitive. Since Wang Yu was the first player who made it to God’s Tower and the first one to trigger Dark Luke, there weren’t any guides for fighting against Luke.

If Wang Yu’s actions were the breakthrough for defeating Luke, Wang Yu was undoubtedly problematic. Someone from the gaming studio must have leaked the way to fight the BOSS. That would be a serious matter.

“No, it isn’t...” Zhao Xinpei and the others shook their heads.

“Then, is Luke designed as a BOSS that enjoys drinking?” Ma Longteng asked.

Within the game’s designs, delivering things that NPCs liked would increase their likeability. As a God-grade BOSS with high intelligence, Luke was the same. If his likeability increased sufficiently, he could form a party with the player.

“There isn’t a setting like that.” Everyone shook their heads again.

“Then, why is he drinking his wine?” Ma Longteng asked in confusion.

“That’s because the NPCs in the game are designed to take advantage of anything they can.” Zhao Xinpei shrugged as he responded.

“F*ck...”

Ma Longteng was speechless for a moment before he continued, “So, this has nothing to do with defeating the boss?”

“No!” Zhao Xinpei affirmed.

“Is that so?” Ma Longteng rubbed his chin and nodded, “Then, that’s fine.”

...

While they were talking, Wang Yu and Luke began their second round of battle.

After they finished their drinks, Wang Yu tossed his bottle straight at Luke’s head.

“Hmph! Is that all you have?”

When he saw how Wang Yu flung the bottle at him, Luke scoffed as he greeted the bottle head-on.

“Boom!”

The sound of glass cracking resounded.

The glass bottle broke as Luke’s expression turned to shock.

Huh? Wasn’t he able to reflect long-ranged attacks? Why is this bottle...

The bottle, damn it!

When he thought about this, Luke suddenly came to his senses. His protective shield could only repel attack skills. On the other hand, Wang Yu’s bottle was an attack weapon. Naturally, it didn’t fulfil the attack criteria.

Of course, throwing a wine bottle wasn’t an attack. However, it restricted Luke’s actions. In the same moment he flung the wine bottle out, Wang Yu followed after with a charge at Luke.

Even though Wang Yu’s actions looked unstable, he was swift. At the same time, the wine bottle struck Luke, and Wang Yu appeared before Luke.

“Pa pa!”

Before Luke could react, Wang Yu awarded Luke with two slaps.

Enraged, Luke readied his spear as he jabbed the rear end at Wang Yu.

However, Wang Yu took two unsteady steps to the back. With a light hop, he extended his hands backwards and grabbed Luke’s wrists.

Wang Yu was in extreme proximity to Luke. Even though Luke’s attacks were powerful, he couldn’t maximise the use of a spear.

With this hop, Wang Yu dodged Luke’s attack at once. At the same time, he swung both legs up.

“Boom!”

With a muffled sound, Wang Yu’s legs launched at Luke’s face.

Wang Yu was practically hanging off Luke’s elbow. His power and momentum came from Luke himself. This kick happened thanks to Luke himself.

How powerful was Luke? With this “blow”, his head felt dizzy.

At the same time, Wang Yu released his hands on Luke’s elbow as he fell toward the ground. Just as his head was about to slam into the ground, Wang Yu pushed off the ground with both hands as both his legs hit Luke’s chin.

[Thunder Stomp] had a huge pushback effect. On top of Luke’s self-inflicted “blow”, he was already unsteady. This powerful kick thrust Luke into the air.

Making full use of his momentum, Wang Yu leaned backwards as both fists headed straight for Luke’s crotch. Before Luke landed from the skies, Wang Yu kicked off the ground, falling straight into Luke’s arms. Turning his body, both of his arms slammed into Luke’s chest, creating loud thumping noises.

“Huh? Is this an illusion? Is Luke giving him slack?”

At first, Wang Yu was suppressed by Luke. However, after the wine, Wang Yu seemed like he was doped. In an instant, he awarded Luke with dozens of combos. Without realising, Ma Longteng furrowed his brows.

Didn’t they say that having wine had nothing to do with the BOSS? Why was the BOSS weakened after having wine? Was there poison in the wine, or is this intentional?

It would be reasonable if there were poison in the wine. One could only say that it was because Wang Yu was using an item. If it was intentional on the BOSS’ part, it was because someone told Wang Yu how to defeat Luke.

“Let me see...”

Ma Longteng wasn’t the only one who was confused. Zhao Xinpei and the others were lost as well. How was he able to suppress the BOSS all of a sudden? Was there a way to defeat Luke that even they weren’t aware of?

That was impossible. The monitoring programmers had the highest authority in the game. If they didn’t know, how would the players know? Wasn’t this too ridiculous?

With that, Zhao Xinpei opened Luke’s attributes.

There was nothing wrong. Luke wasn’t poisoned, and his attributes weren’t weakened either.

When they saw this, Director Li suddenly revealed an angry expression, “Didn’t I say this? This player is cheating. On top of that, there’s someone leaking information to him.”

When he said this, Director Li stared at Zhao Xinpei and continued, “As to who it is, I think it’s easy to figure it out. After all, no outsider would protect a player to this extent.”

It was true that experience built the core of a person. The way Director Li bit back wasn’t weak at all. He said all these precisely without hiding another word.

The technician who protected Wang Yu was Zhao Xinpei. Even though this technically wasn’t defending Wang Yu.

Since they were young, they had a long way to go. In their eyes, life was black and white. Zhao Xinpei was just telling them what he thought.

However, with those words from Director Li, Zhao Xinpei was suddenly suspected of leaking private information.

Of course, Ma Longteng wasn’t dumb either. He wouldn’t believe others’ words so easily. Even though Ma Longteng was frustrated, he pointed at Wang Yu calmly, “Open up his attributes.”

“En!”

Zhao Xinpei nodded and pulled Wang Yu’s stats window open.

There was no change to his statistics. However, two extra BUFFS appeared out of nowhere.

Drunken state: Attack +10%, Defense -10%

Immortal Wine:

[Drunken Beating of the Mountains]: Drunken state increases movement speed by 20% and increases attack and defense by 15%.

[Blood Cleanse]: Drink wine to remove the effects of virus and poison.
