All Novel Full Chapter 1095
Chapter 1095: Chapter 1007 Closed Beta Test Players: “Is this the game I played?”_1 Chapter 1095: Chapter 1007 Closed Beta Test Players: “Is this the game I played?”_1 [King Kong Ape] and [A Street In The South City], are actually in the same place.
Unlike the arrangement in Chang’an City, where markets are placed on the either side of the axis line, evenly referred to as [East Market] and [West Market], here the scale is somewhat different.
In the Divine capital Luoyang, the two markets are centered around the Luo River, respectively referred to as the [North Market] and [South Market], but the area of the [South Market] approaches nearly twice the size of [North Market], covering a significant expanse.
So what Lincoln referred to in the title as [A Street in the South City] would actually be more accurately described as [a street within the area of the South Market].
What’s special about this street: in “Dark Soul”, it has pretty much evolved into a zoo.
Before the mutation, every day there were plenty of monkey jugglers, cockfighters, animal tamers, snake charmers, circus performers…
It was very lively.
Now, after being reshaped by the demon fire, this place has become a paradise for elite monsters.
Beasts of all sorts roam the land.
The [King Kong Ape] is one of the two BOSS level alien beasts found here.
In the live demo, Lincoln was entirely wrapped in dark black armor – mainly to hide the [Prosthetic Hand] on his left arm, to avoid spoilers.
What he held in his hand, of course, was not the [Village Sword], but a dark red longsword that nearly resembled the color of miasma.
After showing up on the screen, the first thing he did was to turn the blade around and stick it into his own belly!
Blood splattered!

“Ah????”
The players and netizens who had rushed over to watch Lincoln’s live demonstration were instantly dumbfounded.
Before they could react, Lincoln pulled out the sword from his belly, and then-
Stabbed it back in again!
Blood splattered again!
When only a little health remained, he took the liquor gourd from his waist and casually threw it onto the ground.
Only then came the players’ reaction:
“Never thought Lincoln was this badass!”
“To prove no injuries, he first cuts himself to minimum health, a touch will kill, right?
Ruthless!”
“Invincible!
Charge, charge, charge!”
…
Lincoln’s unique opening approach immediately stoked the enthusiasm of all the players.
– everyone enjoys watching this kind of extreme challenge!
However, Randall, who knew what was going on, covered his face with a hand, his belly full of scornful thoughts-
” This is obviously flaunting a bug!”
” Aren’t you afraid that players will curse you after the game is launched?!”
The name of that weapon is [Blood Fury], normally, compared to weapons of the same level, its properties are somewhat lower, but its special effect is quite distinct:
The lower the player’s health, the higher the weapon’s attack power.
If it goes below 10%, the attack power could even double, leapfrogging to be the most powerful weapon of the level!
At the same time, the margin for error would be reduced dramatically, and a single touch could result in death!
Where is the absurdity in this case?
The special effect of [Blood Fury] is the weapon’s own characteristic so strictly speaking, it is the [weapon] that got the BUFF, not the player himself, so it will not show up in the player’s status bar.
This means it meets Lincoln’s title requirement of [without BUFF].
Of course, the players knew nothing about this– even those 3,000 closed beta test players hadn’t gotten this weapon yet, so the comments were filled with [iron-blooded man] and similar comments.
Lincoln shook his arm, the grappling hook in his prosthetic hand launched out, grabbing onto the eave and then automatically retracting to yank him into the air.
“Oh!
Automatic grappling hook!” The players cheered again.
Lincoln didn’t fly to the eave, but let go of the grappling hook mid-air, descended from the sky, and thrust the sword into the open air.
“Puff!”
Blood splashed from thin air.
An invisible monkey appeared, falling dead to the ground.
“???” The comments instantly turned into question marks.
But on the screen, Lincoln didn’t stop at all, once again launching the grappling hook into the air, using the momentum to crash into the second floor of a building on the street, thrusting his sword into the heart of the charred shopkeeper, instantly killing him.
Then he rolled on the spot, avoiding an arrow, and in the ensuing momentum, launched a flying kick, kicking a burly archer from the window, directly falling into a chasm on the ground a yard wide and bottomless.
Geographic kill!
Then stealthily slitting a horse’s throat, falling from the sky to nail a gigantic centipede, strangling a brown bear naked…
Lincoln, relying on his high attack power and utilizing stealth, geography, height, traps, and other conditions, killed the small and elite monsters swiftly.
Every move was closely followed by the next, intense yet smooth, looking like the king of killers had arrived in the newbie zone.
Upon seeing one, he’d kill one, without a single worthy adversary!
Often, the monsters hadn’t even seen him before they were sent to their deaths with a single slash from his sword.
The few that are limited by geography and timing and cannot be ambushed, he’d gain the initiative using elaborate routes and then rely on the high attack power of [Blood Fury] to quickly eliminate them.
It wasn’t until the end of [A Street In The South City] that a giant ape came into view.
It’s one of the BOSSes in this area – [King Kong Ape].
On the ape’s shoulder, its master, the [Monkey Juggler], who had been reborn from magic-induced death, was sound asleep.
It could be understood from the name: originally a monkey juggler from the South Market, his monkey started to mutate after a demon fire came through.
The Monkey Man, unwilling for his monkey to become harmful, brandished a huge Horse-cutting Saber and rushed to decapitate the [King Kong Ape]!
But he failed.
The excruciating pain of a blade penetrating his neck threw the monkey’s reason into disarray, killing the master with one slap on the shoulder.
Then the demon fire modified the master, resurrecting him as the BOSS [Monkey Juggler].
This was a two-in-one BOSS of extremely high difficulty.
But since Lincoln had been speed killing all the way here, neither the minor monsters nor the elite monsters could make much noise, and the BOSS was not alarmed.
Lincoln had the chance to descend from the sky, grasping the Horse-cutting Saber still lodged in the Kong Kong Ape’s neck and with an angry roar and a circular blade, the head of the King Kong Ape, as big as a horse carriage, fell right off!
BOSS?
Still instantly killed!
The comments had already turned into a sea of cheers, and now seeing this instantaneous BOSS kill scene, the comment barrage speed increased several times!
The rest was simple-
Lincoln and the Monkey Man, one on one!
At this point, Lincoln no longer used the tactics of ambush, rolling, and detour like before, he directly rushed up for a crude kill!
ονǤ0.сᴑ
No shield, no dodge, all the attacks slashed by the BOSS were accurately blocked by Lincoln!
Sparks flying around!
The sound of clashing swords was like forging, the continuous “clang” “clang” “clang” “clang” echoed in the ear!
Then, at a certain moment, the BOSS, who had always been under close pressure by Lincoln and had no time to recover, ran out of stamina.
Its strikes finally became unable to sustain, revealing an obvious flaw.
And Lincoln seized this flaw!
He rushed up, grabbed the arm of the Monkey Man holding the saber, stabbed him in the heart, pulled out the sword sideways, turned around, and neatly decapitated the Monkey Man’s head in a spin!
The sword trembled, dark red blood splashed out, and finally the sword was sheathed.
That is- killing animation!
This is a hint of action techniques adopted from “Speed Chase”, but it was called [Combat Sense] back then, and now it’s called [Killing Animation].
“Ohhhhhh!!!!!!”
“Invincible!!”
“Cool!”
“Awesome!!”
“Excellent!”
“This is the game I want!
Hurry up and release it!!”
…
No one in the comment section discusses skills, monsters, or intelligence anymore, everyone is cheering endlessly for Lincoln’s splendid killing show and exclaiming “excellent!”
And of course they would.
Lincoln postponed the decoration of his new home to make this exciting clip.
-while his game skills are indeed not weak, and he also has a foundation of sword techniques in reality, this does not mean that this demonstration can be easily achieved.
Just to map out this speed-killing route, he spent nearly two hours studying it with Mavis.
Then it took three and a half hours to successfully implement it in one go.
Killing [King Kong Ape] in a second is not difficult.
But for the fight with the [Monkey Juggler], being able to perfectly block all attacks through backboarding, continuously sticking close to the BOSS without any mistake to prevent it from retreating to create distance took another two and a half hours.
And this, is still without aiming for a continuous shot from beginning to end!
–The [King Kong Ape] and [A Street In The South City] are actually two sets of material.
Lincoln felt these were all minor issues, anyway, the title did not mention “one continuous shot”, and he also distinguished between the [King Kong Ape] and [A Street In The South City] using an [X].
It’s totally justified!
But after watching the clip, the players didn’t care at all whether it was one continuous shot or not.
They are all shouting out “Awesome!” and are completely certain that-
This is a fun game!
— If watching others play is this fun, wouldn’t playing it oneself be even more so?!
But after watching the demonstration, Randall wanted to rush over to Lincoln’s house and directly ask him:
“Did you do it on purpose?”
Not only is Randall questioning, but the 3,000 closed beta test players of “Dark Soul”, after watching this live demo clip, also started doubting-
“Is this the game I played??”
“Why doesn’t it feel like that at all??!!”
