Chapter 9, The Legendary Disconnection
The term 'disconnection' likely originated simultaneously with online gaming, indicating its long history. For players of online games, this phenomenon is undoubtedly as devastating as the Tangshan earthquake, the Indonesian tsunami, or a nuclear explosion in New York. In the early days of online gaming, penalties for 'disconnection' were established to prevent players from forcibly severing their internet connection or simply quitting the game to evade danger. Modern virtual games have naturally retained this tradition. In the battle of the gods, if a player disconnects while in combat, the consequence is standing still and dazed for ten seconds.

This fool actually never applied for equipment protection? I originally expected to rely on the PK value of 7 or 8 to drop two pieces of top-tier protected gear along with some other potions, but instead, there is this sea of colorful lights
As professional players, the group of orc sword saints, who were merely temporary actors, naturally understood what this incredible luck meant, and immediately howled: "Wei bandit, you really have the most unbelievable luck."
You do not show any compassion or tenderness towards her
To speak frankly, this beautiful robber is indeed quite formidable. The purpose of those two fireballs is clear: first, to eliminate that humanoid treasure trove, Thunderstorm, so she can collect the loot; second, naturally, to take us out. The items dropped from player kills have the same ownership rights as those dropped from monsters. If I manage to take down Thunderstorm and loot the equipment, everything on the ground would belong to the Wei family for five minutes, and no one else would be able to pick it up. A full five minutes, as the saying goes, 'the longer the night, the more one needs to urinate,' so she would naturally prefer to strike first.
Magic cannot miss its target, so the fireball cast by the sorceress sister was indeed aimed at her idol, who had just vowed to protect her at all costs. Immediately, she pulled out another scroll, this time targeting the group of orc swordsmen and the impostor novices standing together. Another fireball erupted from it, exploding and engulfing them all in a sea of flames
In addition, there are others, and I pick them up one by one to take a look... "Lightning Blade" / Dagger, Weight 7 lbs, Damage 115 - 180, Durability 65 / 90, Additional Lightning Damage 22 points, +3 Agility, +1 Intelligence, +12% Lightning Resistance, Absorbs 2 Lightning Damage. Requirements: Level 38... Agility 21... This divine sword has taken several lives of my brothers...

Just a moment ago, the delicate and fragile fairy-like beauty resembled a small bird, but now she is as agile as a leopard. It seems she has somehow cast a speed-enhancing spell on herself, charging towards me with remarkable bravery while drawing a wand from her waist. Without even glancing at me, she waved her wand, unleashing several magical projectiles that sent me tumbling to the ground. Her beautiful eyes fixated on the gleaming equipment scattered on the ground, reflecting a gaze that was entirely akin to that of greedy individuals like myself, fierce and predatory. Without even looking at me, she waved her wand again, and several magical projectiles shot forth, knocking me down once more, while her eyes remained locked on the sparkling gear, her expression mirroring that of ravenous wolves.
However, even the smallest possibility does not equate to impossibility; what lies before them is indeed such a fact. This individual did not merely disconnect, but did so while actively attacking me with a significant amount of PK value, just as I was about to deliver the final blow that would defeat him. This stroke of luck cannot even be described by winning 5 million in the lottery; it is akin to betting on the World Cup for the Chinese team to win 10-0 and actually hitting the jackpot.

This stroke of luck cannot even be described by winning 5 million in the lottery; it is akin to betting on the World Cup for the Chinese team to win 10-0 and actually hitting the jackpot. Aside from me, everyone present probably never expected to witness such an unexpected event in their lifetime; no, it is a miracle.
Rest assured. This soup is meant to fill you all up I glared fiercely at this group of drooling individuals Yet I still put on a selfless demeanor, standing up and pointing at the array of shimmering treasures and colorful characters on the ground, saying: Everyone can see clearly that these items now belong to the public I will not keep any for myself, and later we will discuss how to divide them properly
Damn, these guys actually witnessed this scene. In my original plan, these individuals were supposed to serve as cannon fodder to gain PK points and then log off to wait. After I dealt with this guy, I would have just given them some soup to drink, but now that they are aware, it seems that their wages will definitely multiply several times later.
It turns out that the resurrection feature has not yet been restored, and it is unclear whether it is a matter of time or if one needs to pray at the Sun God Temple for recharging. This item is clearly something from our esteemed Elder Pei Luo. I wonder if I wear it as a priest of Pei Luo, will it allow for a second resurrection? Haha. No wonder this item is a holy artifact; even without this bizarre resurrection effect, its other attributes are powerful enough, which means it is quite valuable.
However, at this moment, no one was paying attention to this place; instead, they were looking towards the source of the fireball. The fireball did not truly fall from the sky; it was thrown by the younger sorceress who had been playfully flirting behind the thunderstorm. Just a moment ago, everyone's attention was focused on me, and no one noticed that she was chanting incantations and making gestures beside me, boldly taking action at this critical moment
Moreover, her miscalculation was not limited to this aspect. The group of fools standing nearby, based on their outward appearance and equipment, indeed seemed like a bunch of novices who could be severely injured or even killed by a single fireball. How could she have anticipated that they were actually a group of top-tier experts ranked within the top one hundred of the local leaderboard, pretending to be weak and acting as temporary performers.
I swung the meteor hammer down upon the head of the top-ranked player in the thunderstorm, and with a single strike, blood splattered everywhere. This top-ranked individual immediately collapsed to the ground, falling into a severely injured state. One more hit would cause them to burst open like a Christmas egg, scattering valuable items all around. Ha ha
In the previous battle, she saw me being utterly defeated by the Thunderstorm, and she must have thought my level was quite low, assuming my health was nearly depleted. A fireball combined with a magic missile would have been sufficient to finish me off. However, she had no idea that I was a rather rare part-time player, with health comparable to that of a tank warrior in the early to mid-game. Moreover, the outfit I was wearing provided considerable fire resistance, so even after being stabbed a few times by the Thunderstorm, I still had just enough health left to withstand those two attacks.
However, now is not the time to worry about these matters; it is imperative to eliminate that guy as soon as possible. Although I am not certain whether the Guardian of the Holy Light Angel activates automatically, whether it is once a day, once a week, or has a fixed number of revivals, I am clear that since he has been forcibly logged out, that skill will definitely not take effect. Moreover, fortunately, that guy is overly confident in his ability to slash me and looks down on the combination attack in front of beautiful women, which allowed me to bring the unicorn into the astral realm; otherwise, it would have been quite difficult. I am clear that that skill will definitely not take effect.

However, at present, the stability of network connections and gaming systems has been perfected to the point of being as seamless as the human vascular and nervous systems, and this term has gradually faded from people's sight. The likelihood of encountering an unexpected disconnection is probably similar to the odds of winning 5 million in a two-yuan lottery. At least, it seems that there have been no posts on the forum describing such an ancient calamity.
Just as the beautiful woman's delicate hand was about to grasp the heavenly sword lying on the ground, my meteor hammer arrived just in time. The sorceress quickly withdrew her hand to dodge, narrowly avoiding having her slender fingers smashed into a scallion pancake by me. The elven beauty was greatly surprised to see that I could withstand a third-tier fireball spell and still survive this magical projectile, and she jumped back two steps while raising her wand again.
What good luck! Did you dream last night about touching the butt of the Secretary-General of the United Nations?
The most valuable and eye-catching item on the ground is undoubtedly the "Guardian of the Holy Light Angel." That wretched person has set it all to exhibition status, and once revealed, it displays in large, colorful fonts on the equipment, showcasing the splendor of the holy artifact. I picked it up to check its attributes: Guardian of the Holy Light Angel / Ring, Weight 1 / 16 pounds, All Attributes + 1, All Resistances + 10%, + 20 Health, + 20 Mana. Automatic Resurrection 0 / 1. Requirement: Level 45. Not for Erisnu, not for Hextor, not for Guush, not for the Fallen Believers.

Just as I raised my hand, on the verge of achieving great success, a fireball suddenly descended from the sky and exploded upon the figure of the storm. In an instant, my vision was engulfed in flames, a scorching wave of heat and impact swept over me, and my life plummeted dramatically. The top-ranked expert, who had already been reduced to mere blood and skin, was instantly consumed by the raging fire, becoming a charred corpse.
Equipment, oh equipment...
Using a fireball scroll to blow us up, you truly understand the principle of not being able to catch a wolf without first letting go of the child, and you have the courage. I like it. The orc sword saints emerged from the still smoldering flames, their bodies enveloped in smoke. Given the level of this group, even running around naked would be enough to withstand a hit or two from this third-tier magic.
With a loud crash, the most melodious and beautiful sound in the world, even more captivating than the sounds of beautiful women, resonates. In the moment when the charred corpse takes shape, a voice that leaves one entranced erupts. Swords, clothing, helmets, necklaces—all burst forth, radiating a spectrum of colors from the body of the stormy figure, lying on the ground. Even the items from his backpack spill out in abundance.
Hurry up and blow up that mess now
Disconnection. This is what is known as disconnection
Unexpectedly encountered a robbery while cutting through the alley. This beautiful woman acted with such ferocity and remarkable skill, her tactics were meticulously planned, her steps clear, and her timing impeccable, clearly indicating she is a seasoned criminal. If one were to say this was premeditated, that would be impossible; it is likely that upon hearing the shout of the Orc Sword Saint, she seized the opportunity to strike.
This young woman is indeed quite spicy
Brother Wei, today the brothers are going to follow you to have a taste of the soup. The barbarian dinosaur-class Kexi is staring at a pile of equipment on the ground, its face dripping with drool, exuding an utterly lascivious glow. It goes without saying that the earlier throw was made by this guy. Although his throwing skill is not high, it is still no problem to ambush and hit a magician from a distance of twenty to thirty meters.
Just as she stood tall and poised, having just raised her wand to cast a magical missile at me, she suddenly let out a scream and fell forward. It was only after she collapsed that I noticed a rusty axe embedded in her jade-like back
