554 Fight-ban Order

He logged off without the 10 seconds restriction.

It was no wonder then, he could casually disappear. It was not his crazy prejudgment skills but rather his ability to log off in the midst of battle.

Was it a system bug? That was impossible. King of Pantheon's System may not be perfect but an obvious loophole like this would not be left behind.

However, what sort of equipment could produce such a powerful ability?

Li Yi quietly retreated without revealing himself.

Half an hour later, Li Yi found the two eaglets in the bushes east of the forest.

One had pure white feathers, the sign of a regular snow eagle, while the other had golden feathers. This was a Mutated Snow Eagle.

He compared their attributes before deciding to keep the Mutated Snow Eagle.

[Mutated Snow Eagle (Purple Quality)]

[Level: 1]

[Character: Sinister]

[Attribute: Ice bird]

[HP: 80]

[MP: 10]

[ATK: 60]

[DEF: 10]

[M-DEF: 500]

[AGI: 3500]

[ATK SPD: High]

[SPD: Extremely high]

[Eagle Bind: Captures and restrains prey with its claw.]

[Ice Arrow: Crystalizes an Ice Arrow to attack the enemy at long range.]

[Sand Toss: Blinds enemy]

...

Compared to a normal snow eagle, a Mutated Snow Eagle had an additional Ice Arrow skill and attributes were doubled.

Although snow eagles did not have group attack skills, 3,500 AGI was quite a huge value to start with...

Li Yi released the normal snow eagle back into the wild together with Mutated Small Wild Boar.

The Archer class could only carry five pets with them. For every 5 Skill Points added to the Pet Mastery skill of the Pet Path Archer class, an extra slot would be added. At the maximum level of Pet Mastery, there were nine pet slots available. However, Li Yi never added on this skill so he could only carry five pets with him.

With Explosive Ape, Violent Bear King, Ghost Crab, Lightning Leopard and now Mutated Snow Eagle, the quota was filled up. Feeling a little regret, Li Yi had no choice but to release Mutated Small Wild Boar.

"Snort snort..."

Mutated Small Wild Boar grunted at Li Yi before disappearing into the forest.

Pets who were released back into the wild would quickly turn back into wild monsters.

In fact, as Li Yi's level rose, low-level pets like Mutated Small Wild Boar were not of much use to him. Were it not for the skill Solid Ice, Mutated Small Wild Boar would have been replaced as early as Level 60.

Whether it was a high-level or a low-level pet, there existed a supposed level limit. Mutated Small Wild Boar had a low level limit at Level 60. In other words, once it reached Level 60, it would not go up any further. As for Li Yi's other pets; Violent Bear King had a Level 120 limit, Ghost Crab, Level 130, Lightning Leopard, Level 150, Mutated Snow Eagle, Level 160, and Explosive Ape, Level 90.

At the current level cap, all players and their pets were capped at Level 100.

Li Yi used his Orange Quality Bow to farm monsters for over an hour in the forest. The eaglet's level had now reached Level 15.

Throughout the process of farming monsters, the eaglet remained on Li Yi's shoulder and its body grew bigger as its level rose.

Li Yi may not be interested in the Conquer dungeon but he was in full spirits when he went to the Pinnacle of the Fire. He invited a few newbies to join him to enter the dungeon.

Carrying newbies was secondary to him. His primary goal was to increase the eaglet's level. According to King of Pantheon's rules, if a high-level player were to clear a low-level dungeon, the EXP gained would be halved, but carrying a whole group of newbies would earn an additional 50% on top of the normal value of EXP gained.

Carrying newbies was worthwhile especially for players who wanted to clear their red name. However, Li Yi did not care about clearing his red name. He held a national official post. No matter how red his name was, it did not affect him entering and leaving the city.

A round in Heart of the Fire and the eaglet's level was now at 37. Unlike players grinding levels, pets leveled up at a fairly quick rate.

"Expert, carry us for another round!"

"Expert, don't go."

The four newbies, having met an expert, were begging Li Yi to stay.

"Alright, one more round!"

Li Yi was in a good mood, so he brought the four newbies for a round in another dungeon. Carrying them for a round was gaining them more EXP than grinding levels the whole day by themselves.

It had been a year, yet Li Yi's combo record was still at the number one spot in the Heart of the Fire dungeon's ranking board. The second placed player was still the record holder in the past life, Silver Pig.

"Don't fire blanks and hit it from behind."

Silver Pig was ferocious. He had made a career out of the Fire of the Heart dungeon and kept watch there from day to night. If anyone were to ask him the technique for firing the cannons, he would often bring up the eight golden words Li Yi told him.

After another round in the dungeon, the eaglet's level was now at 43. As its level was close to the dungeon's default level, leveling up here would grow harder.

Li Yi left the Pinnacles of the Fire and headed to the Black Rock Mountain to continue leveling up his pet.

A new Onyxia had respawned after Li Yi subdued Onyxia. However, as the loss of a dragon was too great, the Black Dragon sibling duo remained in Black Rock Mountain, living a peaceful life.

Li Yi was not there to court trouble with the Black Dragon sibling duo. He went down the mountain, farming the weaker drakes.

There was a huge difference between Ancient-level bosses and regular world bosses. The strength of Ancient-level bosses increased based on the number of times they were killed by players. Their abilities flourished and the IQ of newly spawned bosses developed with each kill.

Three days passed in a blink of an eye and the eaglet matured into adulthood along with reaching Level 100!

Back in the Conquer dungeon, the latest news left Li Yi trembling with excitement. Little Elf from the Magical Realm had finally left Infinite Insanity behind, solidly taking first place with a 98% dungeon progress.

With just 2% dungeon progress remaining, Little Elf from the Magical Realm would take home the first kill of the Conquer dungeon, and then finally, Light and Darkness' final group dungeon would be unlocked...

The whole guild was sharing ideas and researching for Little Elf from the Magical Realm as she went through the progress on her own. Compared to his past life, she was progressing in half the time.

Just as Little Elf from the Magical Realm was on the verge of clearing the Conquer dungeon, Li Yi was making preparations to return.

He was not interested in clearing the Conquer dungeon. However, he was very interested in the last dungeon, the Soul Gate.

In his past life, the first kill in the Soul Gate was taken by the party led by Reigning the World's Night Moon. Night Moon once said something cool which was left imprinted in Li Yi's mind.

"It's not that we're strong, it's that others are too weak..."

Li Yi rode Onyxia to head for the Western Continent.

Onyxia was a natural magnet, stirring a huge commotion as Li Yi entered the Western Continent airspace. The Western Continent's air raid siren was blaring as players assembled to defend against their enemy.

Li Yi flew over city after city without any signs of stopping or attacking. It was only when they reached Light City that Onyxia landed.

Standing in the streets of Light City, Li Yi was quickly surrounded by Western Continent players who heared the news and were rushing in.

"Order from the Castellan, the city is banned from fights for a day!"

After an NPC soldier coughed out the order, the word, 'Ban' in a bright golden color appeared above Light City, enveloping the entire city for ten seconds before disappearing.

The Fight-ban Order was a special instruction that could only be announced by the Castellan. Once this order was issued, the city becomes a safe zone where players would not be able to engage in combat no matter what.

Safety was guaranteed under the Fight-ban Order!

"F*ck! WTH? I can't unleash my spells?" A Wizard player raised his staff up and down to no effect whatsoever.

An Archer was flushed red from trying to draw his bow with all his might, "... I can't fire any arrows."

The city was banned from any fights, nobody could initiate an attack.

Li Yi chuckled as he stood on the streets, cupping his hand in salutation towards the angry mob of players.

"Pleased to meet you, everyone!"

"F*ck, don't you dare get smug with us, you f*cker from the Invincible Continent. What an arrogant c*nt! You think you can just come and go as you like to the Western Continent?" An Orc Violent Warrior jumped out to chide Li Yi, sticking his finger right in front of Li Yi's nose.

Enraged, the Orc Warrior added, "Who is Light City's Castellan? Come out! WTH are you thinking triggering a Fight-ban Order at a time like this? Are you f*cking betraying your country?"

Because they were unable to attack Li Yi, the Western Continent players were cursing at the top of their lungs to force Light City's Castellan to make an appearance.

Awoooo! Awooo!

The howls parted the crowd in the street for Brother Windcloud Nine to cross over on Cerberus.

"Here comes Light City's Castellan. It's Brother Windcloud Nine!" Shouted a person.

When the foul-mouthed Orc Warrior heard that Brother Windcloud Nine was Light City's Castellan, he immediately showed signs of respect, "Brother Nine, can you let us know what's this about?"

Brother Windcloud Nine cupped his fist in salutation towards his surroundings and smiled, "Please disperse, I invited my friend, Dark Wing over."

"Friend?"

"Friend?"

The Western Continent players were dumbstruck.

Brother Windcloud Nine pointed at Li Yi, "I wouldn't spend 100 thousand Gold Coins to trigger the Fight-ban Order for anyone but Li Yi."

Brother Windcloud Nine urged Cerberus to move closer to Li Yi and invited him to his residence to catch up.

Li Yi laughed out loud and summoned Holy Light Warhorse to join Brother Windcloud Nine in taking a stroll back to the Castellan's residence.

There was a huge uproar in the whole Western Continent when word got out. Players were making wild guesses based on the actions of Brother Windcloud Nine and Li Yi.

If it was merely a visit, why cause a huge ruckus? The action of issuing a Fight-ban Order just to invite him back to the residence was too much of a hoo-ha.

"I heard that... Sister Windcloud Nine's having an affair with Dark Wing..."

"I heard that too. Brother Windcloud Nine's impotent and Sister Windcloud Nine's one thirsty b*tch, so they..."

"Bullshit! Dark Wing's here to sell Brother Nine a Legendary-level weapon. I heard the weapon's named something killing master sabre."

"Patoooiiii, what nonsense... They're hooking up!"

The players were in a heated discussion, coming up with all sorts of theories. However, no one knew the truth apart from the parties involved.

Back in the Castellan's residence, Li Yi and Brother Windcloud Nine were seated side by side.

Li Yi went straight to the point, I'm here for one thing."
