Online Game: Don’t Heal the Others

Because Xiaofeng was eager to curse these weak teammates who blamed him for the failure. Their attitudes indeed irritated him.

But Xiaofeng was confused and didn’t know what to say. He would rather resort to force than argue with them. Therefore, he needed Han Feng’s help.

“What do you mean? Don’t you realize that you’re the troublemaker?”

However, the other players immediately stared at him with dissatisfaction as soon as Xiaofeng explained himself.

“If you had increased my HP in time, I would have survived.”

“It’s your task to increase the HP of the shield warrior! All the other players in a team will be killed once the shield warrior is dead! It’s all your fault!”

Xiaofeng was astonished by their shameless attitudes. He said, “F**k… No one could have saved you unless he could skip the cooldown time of the holy light and use the healing skills all the time.”

“What are you saying? Do you mean that we’re too weak to be healed? Are you a real healer? Why do you always use the holy light skill to increase our HP? Why don’t you use healing skills?”

The shield warrior complained. The ritualist could also use the healing skill to increase the HP of his teammates. However, Xiaofeng didn’t learn it because its healing speed was low.

“Fine, I admit that I was wrong. I shouldn’t have formed a team with you. It’s a waste of time. I should have worked by myself to finish the mission of the instance zone.” Xiaofeng refused to talk with them.

“You’re just a healer and you can’t finish the mission of the instance zone by yourself!”

“Yes! We’ll immediately leave the team if you’re strong and skilled enough to kill the BOSS by yourself!”

The Elf players sneered and looked at Xiaofeng with disdain.

Xiaofeng nodded and turned around to walk further into the instance zone, without saying anything else.

“Ha! You think too highly of yourself! I admit that your equipment is better than mine! But you’ll be killed anyway!”

The Elf players said scornfully, but the orcish Shaman girl looked around and followed Xiaofeng.

Xiaofeng didn’t glance back. He kept walking and disappeared in the depths of the Nature Valley after a while.

“Did he really go to the instance zone? Maybe we should follow him. We might kill the second BOSS by cooperating.”

“Leave him alone. I’ve never seen such a proud healer before. We only need to stay here and he will definitely be killed.”

“You’re right. He should learn from his mistakes and know his real strength. He has better equipment but he is still a weak healer.”

…

“Wait… please wait for me…”

The Shaman girl caught up with him and Xiaofeng slowed down after realizing that she was following behind him.

“Why don’t you stay with them at the entrance of the instance zone? Maybe I’ll come back after being killed by the BOSS,” asked Xiaofeng. In fact, he didn’t hate that girl player. The other Elf players also blamed her for their mistakes and she dared not contradict them.

In fact, the Shaman girl had kept adding BUFF and giving DPS. Under the effect of Xiaofeng’s Courage Blessing, she had almost contributed one-third of the total DPS of the team. However, the other weak Elf players still criticized her for their deaths, which irritated Xiaofeng.

“I think that you must be a master player. I believe that you won’t be killed and may even kill the BOSS by yourself.”

Finally, the Shaman player caught up with Xiaofeng. She was panting with the efforts and answered his questions seriously, after thinking for a while.

She was also in her early twenties. With brown cat ears and tails, she seemed to be a cat-woman. She was petite and cute by wearing the unique clothes of the Orcs.

She was quite beautiful. Maybe that was the reason why the Elf players let her join the team. No one was willing to work with players of little DPS capacity in a difficult instance zone.

“I believe you! I’ve never seen a priest who is so good at increasing the HP of others. There are also some major healers in the guild, but they mainly increase the physical attacks. However, you’re also an expert at promoting INT!”

The Shaman girl clenched her fists and said. Her character name was Kitten and she was looking at Xiaofeng from behind in secret.

“My elder sister is the best priest in our guild. She can heal others and use damage skills. The damages caused by her are extremely high. So I think you’re as good as her.”

“What? Why can your sister use the damage skill?” Xiaofeng immediately asked with great interest.

“We got it in an advanced area. The monsters there were strong and many players had to work together to kill it. But they dropped skill books frequently. We’ve got two skill books so far!” Kitten explained. But she immediately covered her mouth after speaking. She quickly said, “Oh! I’m doomed! The president doesn’t allow us to disclose this information!”

Kitten said in panic. But Xiaofeng narrowed his eyes and his interest was aroused.

The area could drop skill books frequently! That was groundbreaking news! Xiaofeng was interested in that place.

“You should stay in the main city of the Orc, why did you come to the main city of the Elves?” Xiaofeng transferred the topic without hesitation. The girl couldn’t see the warm smile on his face which was covered by the Skeleton Mask.

Xiaofeng was eager to enter the special area. But it seemed that the president of the Kitten’s guild had stopped her from disclosing that information. However, Kitten looked innocent and Xiaofeng was confident of eliciting the secret from her.

“Well, we try to be the first guild to finish the mission of this instance zone. But we didn’t expect that it would be a medium-scale zone, and players can only form teams of ten. So I was left behind by them. I can’t provide much help, after all,” Kitten said with grievances. But she immediately explained, “In fact, I also have ulterior motives. Our team hasn’t killed the second BOSS yet and I thought that maybe I could see the skills of the second BOSS and provide some information by working with you…”

“That’s fine. What’s the name of your guild…?”

Xiaofeng directly ignored these details and waved his hands to Kitten to comfort her.

Kitten looked at Xiaofeng with gratitude without realizing that Xiaofeng was trying make her share information without her knowing. She disclosed the basic information of the advanced area while talking with him.

…

“Why haven’t they come back? They should have already entered the room of the second BOSS.”

The Elf players were still waiting for them at the entrance of the instance zone.

“I’m anxious to scorn the healer, otherwise, I might have already left this instance zone to level up.”

“You’re right. They should have already been killed by the BOSS. It’s a waste of our time.”

“I really want to see the expression of the healer. Haha. It must be very interesting.”

“He’s wearing the mask and we may not see the expression on his face.”

“By the way, his mask looks great. Where did he get it? I also want to buy one.”

The Elf players were chatting with each other idly. They suddenly heard a system prompt.

“Hey! Congratulations! Your team has successfully killed the BOSS Giant Tree Demon!”

The Elf players were stunned after hearing the system prompt.

“The Giant Tree Demon is the second BOSS, isn’t it?”

“What? The second BOSS has been killed! But all of us are standing here! Who killed it?”

“The healer! The healer killed the second BOSS! I can’t believe it!”

“What? Hurry up and go to the second BOSS’ room! We can get some excellent pieces of equipment!”

“Hurry up! Gee! The healer must be a master player! He killed the BOSS without our help!”

“Maybe he’s the therapeutical paladin!”

The Elf players immediately rushed to the room of the second BOSS for fear that the items had already been collected by others.

There were many rules in the instance zone and players must bear two of them in mind if they wanted to form a team.

The first rule was about team formation. A team could enter the instance zone and try again as long as they failed to finish the mission. Their opportunity wouldn’t disappear.

However, the team members were fixed the moment you walked into the instance zone. You could only form a team with the same players to finish the mission. Players were not allowed to join another team.

That rule could effectively prevent players from repeatedly killing the BOSS. For example, some players might deliberately fail the mission after killing the two BOSSes and collecting the items. They might join another team to kill the two BOSSes and collect the items once again. It was forbidden.

For example, if you failed to finish the mission with the first team and tried to form another team to enter the instance zone once again, you could only choose members of the first team. You didn’t need to choose all of them. Players could form a team of ten, eight, seven, etc. The player could even form a team of one and finish the mission by himself.

There was only one situation in which new players could enter the team. If someone left the team before they finished the mission, or if there were not enough players in the team, new players who hadn’t entered the instance zone could join the team. That was the reason why Xiaofeng could join that team.

However, the newcomers had to proceed at the speed of the team. For example, a team had already killed the first BOSS and was about to attack the second BOSS. Then the newcomer had to fight against the second BOSS despite that he/she hadn’t even entered the instance zone or killed the first BOSS that day, focusing on the progress of the team.

Generally speaking, you were better off staying in the team once you joined it. Players also left the instance zone once they left the team. If the teammates finished the mission, your opportunity also disappeared. What’s more, you would also fail to get any awards since you were not even in the instance zone.

Therefore, few players chose to leave the team unless they were no match for the BOSS. Under the circumstances, it was a waste of time to stay in the instance zone and players usually gave up the opportunity, choosing to enter the instance zone another day.

There had been substitutes in the fight against the salamander. In order to finish the mission successfully, some players had given up their opportunities and left the team. The newcomers had also given up the rewards for killing the first two BOSSes.

The second rule was about the distribution of rewards.

Although all the team members had the right to share the equipment dropped by the BOSS, only those who were in the room when the BOSS was killed were eligible for distribution. They could share the drops by drawing lots. This rule could also effectively stop those passers-by to share the equipment without providing help.

Only Xiaofeng and Kitten were present in the room when the second BOSS was killed. The Elf players couldn’t share the items. They didn’t even know what the items were.

Only Kitten and Xiaofeng were eligible for distribution and they could share the items by drawing lots. However, Kitten gave up her opportunity since the BOSS was killed by Xiaofeng and all the items should belong to him.

Xiaofeng directly collected all the items without hesitation. There were not great items, after all. Then they immediately rushed to the room of the final BOSS.

“Hey! Congratulations! Your team has successfully killed the final BOSS – Dark Elf Guard! You’ve successfully finished the mission of the Nature Valley!”

The Elf players heard a new system prompt when they arrived at the room of the second BOSS.

“What? Did he finish the mission of the instance zone?”

“The Dark Elf Guard is the final BOSS! Did he kill it?”

“He finished the mission so fast! I can’t believe it!”

“F**k! We’re done! The healer must be a master player! He killed the two BOSSes by himself and finished the instance zone! We’ve got nothing!”

“Gee! I can’t believe it! We couldn’t even kill the second BOSS, how could he finish the mission without our help?”

“He’s really a master player… We’ve also wasted his time…”
