Noob Player

Chapter 33: The Noob Deals Zero Damage



Tribe Online received worldwide attention, it was normal for a serious case like this to get in the news.

Shen then looked back on his phone. He clicked the comment section and found out that Mayor Son was cursed. More than two million users commented and most of them were condemning Mayor Son.

For some reason, Shen was curious and checked Yue's forum profile. She addressed the bullying issue, he wondered what her take on this issue.

However, Shen found that her last forum post was still the post where she defended him. It meant she said nothing about this issue.

"But this is a serious issue for Sky for sure. Sky insisted that we can't change our appearance then this happened," Shen recalled about this policy.

Of course, there was no perfect policy. There was always a flaw in a policy. The difference was what Sky tried to achieve with policy. Maybe they aimed for something else by employing this kind of policy.

If someone could change their appearance, a scam was another easy thing to do. If someone could not change their appearance, the player could be easily found out in real life. Just like what happened to the player in the video.

The thing was how this case would end. If Mayor Son proved that he was not guilty by the authority, Sky should be ready to receive a big backlash more than the game did not have a mage class.

For example the stock. The news on tv reported that Sky Corps's stock plummeted slightly by this news even though this was not the game corporation's fault

"Not my issue, serve you right! This is karma," for some reason, Shen was happy by what happened to Sky.

He turned off the tv, he just wanted to check the issue. The news was proof that the game was not any longer a game. There was a big stake in the game.

Shen calmed his mind down and started to ponder his issue again, "Let me rethink again, what did I miss? There must be something to solve my issue. Is the fish the only answer? I died because it caught me off guard with those damn hind legs!"

"Let's try it again. Shen never give up!" After he gathered some determination, he cleaned up his mess.

Shen returned to the game, and now he was standing next to the river where the spearhead fish was.

"Dodge the first attack and the second attack. It would be better if I can lure the fish further from the river," with a new plan in his mind, he walked toward the river bank.

Shen was ready to activate his skill and dodged to the left. He observed the water surface. It did not take a long time before the fish took the bait. The water splashed and the spearhead fish shot toward him.

Learning from his mistake, he put the spear in his inventory first. Dodging while holding the spear was not efficient.

Shen ducked his head and pushed his body to the left, down to the ground. The fish passed above his body.

He immediately further from the riverbank. At the same time, he observed the spearhead fish. The fish turned his head toward his direction with the hind legs.

Shen did not take his spear out and he did not use his skill. That was a good start as he preserved his Stamina. Now the distance between him and the fish was three meters, however, the fish did not attack him.

'Wait a minute, the fish could not breathe properly on land. Maybe I can suffocate the fish by luring it out further from the river?' Shen's eyes shone brightly, 'I should take the risk!'

Since the fish did not attack him, he decided to come closer. When the distance was two meters away, the spearhead fish pushed its body with the hind legs.

Shen was underestimating the power of its hind legs. The fish was just too fast for him to react in time. For the second time, the spearhead fish burst his head open.

Shen returned to the respawn spot, but he was not depressed even though he was killed by the spearhead fish again. This time he saw a glimmer of hope to solve his issue.

He returned to the riverbank, he did the same trick, luring the fish to the land. The first step was clean. The second step, luring the fish further from the river.

'Two meters, that is the range of the attack. I will pre-activate my [Void Step].' He activated the skill and shortened the distance. When the distance between them shorted to two meters, the fish lunged toward him.

Thanks to his quick action by activating the skill, he avoided the spearhead. However, he merely avoided the spearhead barely as it grazed against his shoulder.

-45

Shen suffered 45 damage even though the spearhead just grazed against his shoulder. He was surprised but he quickly accepted it. The gap between them was just too big.

He quickly got up and circled the fish, making sure the fish got further from the river. He had to be in the right position, it was just a repeat action where he would bait the spearhead fish to attack him and dodge the attack.

This time, Shen made a perfect dodge. Without the spearhead fish realized, it was more than ten meters away from the river.

"It's time for the real battle!" Shen took out the spear from the inventory. Holding the spear with both hands, Shen shortened the distance with the fish.

The moment the fish jumped at him, Shen moved to the right. It was another perfect dodge as he had gotten used to the fish's speed. While the fish midair, Shen thrust the spear toward the fish's side body.

It was a hit, and he smiled widely. The fish was pushed to the side by him, but then his smile froze. He froze when he looked at the damage he dealt on the spearhead fish.

The number floating on top of the fish was zero. Yes, he dealt zero damage on the fish despite a big hit.

"What? How is this possible? Is the fish higher in level than the chicken?" That was the possibility, the fish should be stronger than the chicken.

Since he attacked the fish, he got the information about the fist. Shen retreated to a safe distance and checked the information.
