Chapter 82
Emmett actually started recording it.

Leeanne might not be good at much else, but she’d mastered the Twelve Secret Forms of the Soft Whip, a skill straight out of the game, and honestly, it packed a punch.
With her Twelve Secret Forms of the Soft Whip, Myron and Derick surprisingly couldn’t get the upper hand at all.
Derick felt his movements growing increasingly sluggish. If he didn’t deal with Leeanne soon, he’d probably end up wiped out right here.
He started to panic.
As Leeanne swept her soft whip, Derick went all out. He tossed his iron axe aside, lunged forward, and snatched the end of the soft whip with both hands.
He figured he was way stronger than Leeanne, so he thought he could rip it away from her.
But the moment his hands closed around the soft whip, pain exploded in his palms. He yelped and instinctively let go.
On his hand, several iron caltrops were prominently embedded. He winced in pain, beads of cold sweat forming on his forehead, but gritted his teeth and pulled them out, throwing them aside.
His hands were drenched in blood, every finger torn open.
The pain shot straight to his heart, making his head spin. He nearly blacked out right there.
‘Oh, that hurts!” Emmett, with strong empathy, immediately cried out in sympathy for Derick.
Everyone in Local Chat felt it too and started flooding the chat with questions. “What happened? Who got hurt now?”
Emmett replied, “It’s Derick, you know, the murderer. Dude, his hands are totally wrecked, fingers all torn up. That pain must be insane!”
Emmett was dutifully streaming, making sure not to miss a single moment.
When he saw how messed up Derick was, he winced and said, “Man, that’s rough. Derick’s hands are done for, so much blood, jeez!”
As he said, he posted the video to Local Chat. And of course, the video only showed Derick’s miserable state.
Emmett even thoughtfully blurred Leeanne out in the footage.
So everyone got a clear look at Derick’s face twisted in pain, and the discussion was becoming increasingly heated.
“Whoa, Leeanne’s soft whip skills are pretty awesome.”
“Totally! Did you see Derick’s face? He was in so much pain. What happened to his hands, though?”
“The video’s kinda blurry, but I think he grabbed Leeanne’s whip and got spiked. Oh, her whip’s got hidden weapons.
“Derick’s hands are bleeding like crazy. Just looking at it makes me cringe.”
“Ugh, his legs and shoulders are bleeding too. He’s injured quite badly.”

“I just caught a glimpse of Mick. Did he collapse or something?”

“Myron’s face is white as a sheet. He must be terrified. Leeanne’s insane. One versus three, and she’s absolutely demolishing them.”
“Hey, Myron still hasn’t run? If he doesn’t run now, his whole crew’s gonna get wiped out!”
Myron’s face turned pale, half from fear and half from anger.
“Myron, let’s get out of here!” Mick, hurting and scared out of his mind, limped a couple of steps and yelled, “My leg’s wrecked, Myron!”
“Oh, Myron, that damn bird just went for my eyes. My eyes!” Mick screamed again.
A gorgeous bird with a red beak and blue feathers shot up into the sky, cursing, “You filthy mutt, blind idiot! Total loser!”
It was none other than Little Blue.
Blood gushed from Mick’s eyes as he covered them, howling in pain.
Myron clenched his longsword, desperate to get Mick out and patch him up. If we wait any longer, Mick’s leg might be done for, and his eyes, too. Seriously, where did that weird bird even come from? Myron thought, freaking out.
Without time for further thought, Myron sheathed his sword, rushed to Mick’s side, and hoisted Mick onto his back before running away.
He refused to admit in his heart that he had been scared out of his wits by Leeanne.
Emmett kept shaking his head, clicking his tongue nonstop. “Jeez, Myron is so chicken. He just bailed!”
Rodger was thrilled. “Myron bailed?”
He’d been worried about Leeanne the whole time.
Emmett replied, “Yeah, he took off with Mick and left Derick behind. Oh, poor Derick, just used by Myron and Mick like
that.
Derick refused to run. He’d killed plenty, but never once turned tail.
Even battered and bleeding, it only fired up his killer instinct.
He roared, his eyes wild with rage, snatched up his iron axe, and charged at Leeanne like a madman.
Lecanne had already retreated a few steps, her soft whip dancing like a serpent, whipping through the air with a chilling hiss as it struck toward Derick.
Derick was way more ferocious than Myron.
But he was already injured, and the locoweed was slowly kicking in, so he was only getting weaker and more exhausted.
Leeanne kept her distance, doing her best to avoid facing Derick head–on.
After another seven or eight minutes, Derick was panting like a beast, his movements growing more erratic and clumsy
Sweat was pouring off him like a waterfall, streaming into his eyes from his forehead. His vision blurred, and he felt dizzy.

Suddenly, a sharp pain shot through his chest. He looked up, only to see Leeanne standing there, bow in hand, nocking another arrow as she stared him down.
An Arrow had already pierced his chest.
Leeanne stared at Derick.
Derick glanced at the arrow lodged in his chest again, staggered, and then crashed to the ground with a heavy thud.
A system prompt echoed in Leeanne’s mind.
[You have slain Derick Tillery. You have earned 50 points. Loot his items?]
Whoa, that’s a lot of points! Leeanne thought, genuinely surprised. I only got 20 after taking out Wilmot earlier, so why did I get 50 after killing Derick? Is it based on their strength or something?”
Leeanne didn’t dwell on it. “Yes,” she replied.
[You have looted Derick’s items, including a massive iron axe, 2 bottles of bottled water, 10 bread rolls, 1 Scarlet Gold Angelica Herb, and 1 Summon Card. All items have been stored in your backpack.]
Leeanne raised an eyebrow.
‘Didn’t expect Derick to have so much stuff, she thought, a bit surprised. “The Scarlet Gold Angelica Herb is a real find. It can be used to make a Revitalizing Pill. Nice, there’s even a Summon Card!‘
Leeanne felt pretty satisfied.
That was a hard–earned kill, but the rewards were totally worth it, not just 50 points, but also the Scarlet Gold Angelica Herb and a Summon Card.
Meanwhile, Emmett was super pumped, streaming the whole process live.
“Oh, holy crap, Derick’s dead. He’s really dead. Leeanne just finished him off.
“Epic! Leeanne is just unstoppable. Seriously, if you ever run into her, don’t even try going after her loot, because you won’t stand a chance. She might even take you out instead.
“Whoa, Leeanne just grabbed all of Derick’s stuff. Looks like she scored big, Jackpot!”
Chat exploded with shock.
“Leeanne actually took out Derick? Dude, I never would’ve guessed.”
