The Game of Global Mining

Chapter 954: Chapter 791: Divine Skill - Cursed Crow

Piercasson showed up on the left side of Chun’s wheelchair, started twisting his waist and dancing with a sleazy laugh. At the same time, his sleazy, taunting laughter came through on the phone livestream.

Chun was so pissed he could barely breathe. He must have been staring at my fingers: the instant my finger moves to press the cannon button, there might not even be time to lock on, and he’ll Instant Teleport in advance!

Fine, he’s really farming traffic now. Seeing the whole world mock him, he just went full clown and started doing abstract performance art, huh?

And he deliberately appeared on my left side because he’s sure my right-hand cannon can’t blast him directly. If I turn to aim at him, he’ll definitely Instant Teleport again and kite me in circles on the spot, turning me into the clown with no dignity!

Chun took another swig of booze and kept chatting breezily with a laugh: "You’re really naughty!"

Meanwhile his thoughts spun like crazy—what now?

Taking him down is definitely no problem, but the premise is it has to look classy. Can’t have him flailing like a headless chicken—yet a classy way to finish him...doesn’t exist!

Chun instantly thought of the new Divine Domain Skill he’d just learned—"Cursed Crow"!

But that’s a Divine Skill, top secret, specially reserved for hunting Samuel. Can I really use it in front of tens of millions of global viewers and the Ten Lords?

Holy Shit, I’m the type who’ll die poor but still die on my pride. It’s exactly this kind of big stage where I have to use it! If I don’t, I’m getting mocked by the whole world, and what I lose isn’t just my personal dignity.

Anyway, either Samuel won’t come, or if he does show up I’ll have to use it then. Sooner or later it’ll be exposed in front of the Ten Lords. The Ten Lords have already seen me as a Blasphemer summoning an Evil God, they’ll probably connect the dots! Plus, the more casually and openly I use the move, the less seriously people might take it. As long as my acting is on point, I might even mislead the Ten Lords and all the global players...

Yeah, acting is the key!

Chun laughed and chugged a big mouthful of booze, while Piercasson giggled along but watched Chun’s every move with extreme caution.

Chun activated the Cursed Crow skill. Inside the Divine Domain, that Crow cawed once—System prompt: Please select a Curse target, or curse the entire area of effect.

So it can be single-target or AoE Attack, huh!

Chun selected Piercasson—Cursed target: Piercasson!

Does this count as locking on to him without him noticing?

The Crow cawed again, rose into the air, flew out of the forest, and vanished.

Time to act. Chun puffed out a mouthful of booze mist with a "pfft"—the whole point was to make everyone think this skill is related to alcohol!

Piercasson’s body reacted on reflex and he Instant Teleported in place again, disappearing!

Holy Shit, that reaction speed. Will it still work?

The next second, Piercasson appeared several dozen meters directly behind Chun.

——System prompt: Cursed Crow has successfully taken effect! Target Piercasson will be locked into Attacking you!

Oh yeah, it worked!

Seeing him start moving toward him, Chun slowly spun his wheelchair around like a poker god, and just as he turned, a Fireball came flying at him. But when it hit Chun’s Shield, it was nothing but a puff of smoke.

Right then, Chun’s phone livestream carried Piercasson’s panicked yelling, with translated subtitles: "What’s going on? It’s so noisy in my ears, I’m out of control, aaahhhh!!!"

Ha! The skill effect is the same as the Blasphemer’s!

Chun kept sipping lightly, calmly watching Piercasson stumbling toward him, flailing and spamming all kinds of fireworks. Honestly, he could blast him with one shot right now, but killing him like that would look lame. Better wait till he comes closer and then praise him in front of all the players worldwide.

At last, Piercasson got right up to Chun, stabbing with swords and kicking legs, dropping fireworks point-blank—utterly pointless!

Chun extended his left hand, just enough to touch his head, and gently patted his "dog head" with benevolent kindness: "You’re really naughty~"

Then fired the cannon!

Satisfying!

——System prompt: Congratulations! You have won the match, gained 1 kill point, obtained the Mixed-Battle Arena achievement "The Last One", and earned an extra reward of 50 points.

Holy Shit!

He killed 298 people and got 298 points, I kill him and only get 1 point—that’s a loss! But whatever, it felt good, wahahaha!

——System prompt: Do you wish to start the next match?

Not playing for now; I want everyone to think my booze-spray ultimate has a cooldown.

Then I grabbed my phone and kept watching his livestream, seeing global players flood the chat with "You’re really naughty"! Ha, that’s funny. But all this insane traffic he’s getting? I gave it to him. Can he handle it?

...

Ten Lords Chat Group.

This sudden appearance by Piercasson really caught Michael’s eye: "This is our big gift-package client, right?"

Raphael chuckled: "Yep, the young master of the Louis Vuiton Group from France. He ordered a Mage Assassin Hidden Profession, specialized in piercing Energy Shields, plus a Divine Artifact Gem Bomb generator—that’s what he used to bombard the entire arena and seal all the Angel Pets. And his gameplay is roughly at first-tier Professional Player level. But he’s too laid back and hates teaming up, so his ranking fluctuates around 80. If he actually tried, he could reach top 20—"

At this point, Raphael stopped laughing: "No damage?"

Michael was stunned: "The Energy Shield pierce clearly succeeded; how did it deal no damage?"

Sela said in surprise: "Must be some Super Cool guild skill. This skill activates when the user is weakened and can mitigate most of the damage."

Gabriel was dumbfounded: "It’s also possible the potion I injected into Chun mutated him..."

Sariel frowned as he watched: "Why is this fly drinking alcohol?"

Gabriel said: "Last time we tested him, we found he had a booze stat in his Attributes. Alcohol-related skills include Extreme Survival. He’s probably trying to trigger his booze stat to tough it out."

Sariel snapped impatiently: "Is that really necessary? In his current wheelchair state he can practically sweep the whole field with his cannon, right?"

Sela said irritably: "That wouldn’t look elegant enough, would it? Look at him, he’s totally treating himself like a superstar..."

Sariel let out a cold snort.

Then they saw Chun spray out a mouthful of booze, Piercasson completely lose control, and the whole group exploded: "What just happened?!"

Michael frowned: "This looks a lot like his earlier Blasphemer effect!"

Sariel was stunned: "But the Blasphemer can only affect an Evil God. This is a player!"

Gabriel said: "Obviously, he was drinking the whole time to stall. This skill is tied to alcohol!"

Michael was baffled: "Does booze even have a related skill like that?"

Uriel said: "The Wine Angel’s booze-mist skill has a similar intoxication effect, but Piercasson doesn’t actually look drunk..."

Sela wondered: "Maybe his Blasphemer ability plus drinking combined to spawn this kind of skill?"

Samuel laughed: "If he has this skill, doesn’t that mean he could hunt me down so I can’t escape?"

Sela laughed: "Highly likely. So listen to the boss’s orders and don’t go up against him."

Michael said in a deep voice: "Exactly! And we can’t rule out that this skill has nothing to do with alcohol at all. He might be deliberately using it publicly in front of global players to mislead us, to make Samuel drop his guard..."
