Chapter 1197 Farming Experience and Badass Points

The adventurers watched in amazement as Michael successfully defeated the doppelganger. Murmurs and exclamations filled the hall as they processed what had just happened.

"Did you see that? He just took it down!" one adventurer said, his voice tinged with excitement and disbelief.

"Wait, who fired that bolt?" another asked, turning to see Gaya on the other side of the pond.

"Where did she come from?" someone else wondered aloud, surprised by her sudden appearance.

As they observed, they noticed the water level in the pond slightly decreased following the doppelganger's defeat. Speaking quietly, Michael noted, "We need to kill more doppelgangers to make the pond completely vapor away."

The group's demeanor shifted from fear to determination, bolstered by Michael's successful strategy. They began to discuss amongst themselves, their voices filled with newfound confidence.

"We can do this," one of them said, nodding towards Michael. "We just need to replicate what he did."

"Without weapons, the doppelgangers are just reflections. We can outsmart them," another added, understanding the tactic.

"Let's team up. We've seen it can be done," a third suggested, rallying the group.

The adventurers began organizing themselves and discussing strategies to take on the doppelgangers.

Jin observed from a distance as the adventurers began to group up, preparing to face the pond's challenge. "He made it look easy," Jin muttered to himself, "but these guys have no idea what they're up against."

Meanwhile, a prominent group from Aurumvale, identifiable by their golden armor, approached the pond. The leader, an elf with long silver hair, exuded confidence as he directed two of his companions. "Position yourselves so that the doppelganger's back is to you," he instructed. The elf was poised, his demeanor suggesting he was accustomed to command.

"I'll show you how it's done," the elf declared, echoing a similar sentiment of confidence. Emulating Michael's approach, he tossed his battle axe to the ground near him. His companions, armed with bows, took aim, their arrows glowing with runes, ready to be loosed.

The elf then stepped forward and lightly touched the water with his boot. A doppelganger began to form, mirroring the elf's stance. As the elf threw his fist towards the doppelganger, their fists collided with a thud, just as Michael's had.

"Now!" the elf shouted, signaling his companions.

The two elves released their arrows at the doppelganger. The projectiles, imbued with magic, exploded upon impact. Seizing the moment, the elf bent down to retrieve his battle axe. But to everyone's shock, as soon as the elf's hand touched the axe, an identical weapon materialized in the doppelganger's hand.

Before the elf could fully grasp his axe, the doppelganger swung its newly formed weapon with lethal precision, decapitating the elf in one swift motion.

"Lord Vilriyan!" one of his companions cried out in horror, their voice filled with disbelief and shock.

The hall erupted in reactions of shock and confusion. The group's confidence, bolstered by Michael's earlier success, was shattered.

"We thought... it was foolproof," one of the adventurers stammered, his voice reflecting the group's disbelief.

"How did it... How could it?" another murmured, struggling to comprehend the abrupt and brutal turn of events.

Michael's response was straightforward. "Then we need to come up with a new strategy," he said simply, ready to evolve his tactics as needed.

After a while, a dwarf with a thick bushy beard and the friend of the first fallen dwarf, stepped forward with a mix of determination and resignation. "I'll go next. If I die, I'll have a hearty drink with my friend in the afterlife," he declared, a somber tone in his voice.

In response to the dwarf, Michael gave a simple nod of acknowledgment and took his position near the pond, ready for the next moment. The other adventurers stepped back, forming a loose circle around the pond as the dwarf bravely approached, throwing his battle axe aside.

"Come out, you fucker," the dwarf called out defiantly, ready to face the doppelganger.

Michael unsheathed his dark sword, and Gaya took aim with her crossbow, ready to fire an explosive bolt.

As the dwarf touched the water, it rippled, and the doppelganger of the dwarf emerged, mirroring his stance.

"Let's dance, you handsome prick," the dwarf growled.

Without hesitation, the dwarf and the doppelganger lunged forward, their heads colliding with a resounding thud that echoed through the hall.

At that moment, Gaya released her bolt. The explosive bolt soared through the air and struck the doppelganger, causing it to ripple and momentarily slow its movements.

Seizing the opportunity, Michael leaped into the air. With an acrobatic flip, he positioned himself above the doppelganger, his dark sword poised for a decisive strike. As he descended, he swung his sword with lethal precision, severing the head of the doppelganger dwarf in a clean, fluid motion while he was still upside down in mid-air.

Michael landed gracefully on the other side of the pond, his landing soft and controlled. The doppelganger disintegrated into water, its threat neutralized.

[Ding! Congratulations to the host for successfully being a badass. The reward is 25,000 Badass points] [Ding! Congratulations to the host for successfully being a badass. The reward is 30,000 Badass points] [Ding! Congratulations to the host for killing a Qi Awakening Realm doppelganger. The reward is 1000 Experience points and 12,000 Badass points]

Michael couldn't help but smile as the system notifications rang in his head. Although the experience points were minimal, the amount of badass points he was getting made this worthwhile. He realized he could effectively farm these points in the current situation.

As the doppelganger of the dwarf dissipated into the pond, the water level decreased slightly again, signaling their progress.

Seeing Michael's success in dealing with the doppelgangers, the adventurers grew eager to take their turn. A clamor erupted as they jostled for position, each wanting to be next.

"I should go next! I followed him first!" one adventurer claimed.

"No, let me! I've seen how it's done now," another countered, trying to push to the front.

Amidst the growing chaos, Gaya saw an opportunity. She stepped forward, raising her voice to be heard over the racket. "Form a line, and whoever has the most gold coins gets to go first," she announced, her tone firm yet cunning.

The adventurers paused, considering her words.

"And remember," Gaya added with a hint of menace, "if he gets tired and you end up at the back of the line, your survival might not be guaranteed."

Her statement resonated with the adventurers, and a sense of urgency took over. They quickly began to dig into their pouches and bags, counting their coins, eager to secure their turn with the assurance of Michael and Gaya's support.
