Chapter 1199 - 1113: Gravely Wounded by the Blood Demon King

Although Da Fei tried his best to control the pace, it was indeed unexpected to be caught by the Demon King. In any case, things got out of hand! But fortunately, it was once again Anlicia’s shining moment. Under Anlicia’s spell, three illusions rose up into the sky along with the Sky Ship.

With a single choice question of one out of four options, Da Fei’s confidence in escape soared! Back when Da Fei took multiple-choice tests in English, it was rare to get several questions right with random guessing from four options! Based on Da Fei’s personal experience, this success rate was far lower than 25%.

At this moment, a gigantic "shrimp-crab" creature, more than ten times larger than an ordinary Blood Demon and almost as large as the Flying, emerged from the Vortex Gate. When it saw four Sky Ships in the sky, it too was stunned!

Da Fei nervously clenched his fists and prayed silently: Be stunned, the longer you’re stunned, the higher I fly, and the lesser your damage becomes! And now that I’ve flown this high, even if the enemy has some means to identify us, it might not work so well at this great distance.

"Despicable mortals, how laughable!"

The next moment, the system alert blared again! The Blood Demon didn’t do as Da Fei hoped; after taking a deep breath, it decisively attacked, shooting a blood column straight into the sky like a rainbow!

At that moment, Da Fei’s eyes shrank in shock! The beauty deputies in the cockpit instinctively clutched the anti-shock handles on the ceiling!

And in the next moment, Anlicia chuckled, "He got it wrong!"

Da Fei suddenly rejoiced; yes, the trajectory wasn’t coming toward them! Even in a multiple-choice question of four options, a Demon God-level entity is still useless!

With a muffled bang, the thick blood column shattered one of the illusions not far from the Sky Ship like a cannon swatting a fly. Even at such a distance, the Sky Ship still felt the wind pressure shaking it! However, this vibration was noticeably smaller than the one from the volcano earlier, which further strengthened Da Fei’s confidence to continue climbing and avoiding — I want to fly higher!

The Blood Demon King laughed wildly, "Trivial tricks! There are still three left, who will it be?" With that, it began to inhale deeply again!

Da Fei’s jaw dropped in shock: "His firing frequency is this fast?"

Anlicia frowned, "Watch me!" She immediately waved her hand, and one of the illusions started to ascend faster, quickly leaving the real body and another illusion behind.

Da Fei was taken aback, could it be?

The Blood Demon King laughed triumphantly, "Trying to escape now! Too late!!" No sooner had he spoken than another blood column shot out with a bang. At that moment, Da Fei was too nervous to breathe! And the next moment, the blood column once again brushed past, directly catching up to the rapidly ascending illusion controlled by Anlicia — bang! Demon Light scattered!

Apu! Da Fei couldn’t help but spray, "So that’s it!"

Anlicia laughed, "Exactly, the opponent thought we were scared, instinctively believing that the one eager to escape was the real body!"

At this moment, the Blood Demon King’s roar echoed across the sea and sky, "Utterly laughable! But now only two are left! The moment to decide your fate has arrived!" And then, the Blood Demon King started inhaling again!

For heaven’s sake, you can’t play like this! Da Fei was scared once again! With his shooting frequency, lasting even a minute was difficult, let alone ten minutes! Now it’s a fifty-fifty choice, should they be prepared to take the hit?

At this moment, the entire cockpit was in dismay!

Da Fei’s mind raced as he hastily shouted to Anlicia, "Repeat the trick!"

Anlicia exclaimed, "Will he fall for the same deception twice?"

Da Fei took a deep breath, "Let’s gamble! Precisely because he prioritized attacking the high-flying one just now, it shows he understands his disadvantage, so this time, whether it’s his instinctive awareness or the negative mindset from the last gamble—"

"Got it! Better than doing nothing!" Without further ado, Anlicia immediately began controlling the only illusion left to climb higher!

At that moment, Da Fei’s heart was in turmoil! If the opponent were a player, a living person, all sorts of negative emotions and overthinking would often make a 50% odds game more challenging, which is why coin tosses or rock-paper-scissors become quite tricky. But the opponent is a system NPC! If it really is a simple, brainless 50% random draw, Da Fei would be scared to death! Now, Da Fei could only hope its intelligence was high enough, even reaching the level of a real person!

The Blood Demon King’s roar came again, "Will I be deceived by the same trick twice!"

In that instant, Da Fei clenched the handle tightly with gritted teeth! The entire cockpit fell into dead silence!

— Boom!!! Once again, a rainbow-like blood cannon shot into the sky, smashing the illusion controlled by Anlicia!

Anlicia laughed heartily, "He really fell for the same trick twice!"

This is indeed a highly intelligent, comedic boss! Da Fei breathed a sigh of relief and laughed, "This is typical of gamblers who have lost their bets!"

"Laugh all you want! I permit you to laugh, have a good laugh!" The next moment, a dull voice again came from the surface of the sea, sounding neither angry nor joyful.

At this time, the laughter of Da Fei and his team abruptly stopped, unable to laugh anymore! Indeed, there are no illusions now, Anlicia’s illusion army magic is still in cooldown, which means the Flying has no cover and can only withstand the attack head-on!

Da Fei hurriedly called Tamilia: "Can the Flying endure it?"

Tamilia shook her head in panic: "I don’t know! But we have 280 Evil Demons, they have the Holy Vine Coexistence skill which can heal the Flying!"

That’s right, one of the Flower Demon’s signature skills is Ancient Tree Coexistence, which can heal ancient trees and level 6 tree monsters. Evil Demons’ skill turns into healing for the Holy Vine, now the only hope is how long these 280 Evil Demons can hold off.

"Laughed enough? Ready or not?" The leisurely voice of the Blood Demon King came again from the surface of the sea.

Da Fei’s heart tightened, his bladder shrank! This tone isn’t right, the comedic mode has switched to show-off mode? Bring it on, I’m ready, I flew another dozens of meters high, and I’m bracing for impact!

"Let’s begin!" This time, a long, far-reaching inhaling sound came from the sea surface, sounding like a death-knell magic sound to Da Fei!

—System Prompt: Warning! You are locked by high-energy magic power! Respond with full force!

At this moment, Da Fei could only pray that the Flying’s 500,000 durability and nearly a thousand defense could withstand it! When the inhaling sound stopped, time seemed to freeze at this moment!

—Boom!!! Another blood cannon shot skyward!

At this time, a column of red blood surged toward the Sky Ship’s dashboard on the hull monitor, with the Flying having no way to avoid! Da Fei gritted his teeth to give an unissued instruction: "Everyone prepare for collision resistance!"

Here it comes!

—Bang!!! A loud crash erupted beneath Da Fei’s feet as everyone in the cockpit flew upward into the ceiling! Then a huge row of red lights from the system prompts exploded:

—System Prompt: Serious Warning! The Flying’s hull has been corroded and pierced by Blood Demon King Azak, a huge hole appeared! It entered a sinking state, please repair by all possible means and call for towing rescue by allied fleets!

—System Prompt: Warning! The third layer of the Flying’s deck has been corroded and pierced by Blood Demon King Azak, the third layer cargo hold has been damaged!

—System Prompt: Serious Warning! Two layers of the Flying’s main structural frames have sustained shattering strikes, the Flying faces a risk of being broken in half! Please repair the supporting structural frames by all possible means!

Pierced through!!! Entering sinking state?! The crisis of breaking in half!!!

Is this a one-hit kill?! At this instant, Da Fei’s brain went blank! Da Fei could hardly believe his eyes! The 500,000 durability Flying seemed meaningless in front of the Demon King, basically like being rammed and opened up by a speeding giant ship! This is the power of a God-level Boss! This is the consequence of completing a task that shouldn’t have been completed! This time, I really played it wrong!

Thinking of how the Sky Ship, akin to his life and property, might really sink here, a bone-chilling fear, an overwhelming urge to pee surged through Da Fei’s body instantly! God, grandfather Silena! Save me! I’ll become your subordinate!!! No, I’ll be your grandson, is that okay?!!!

It was at this moment, Agarlon’s mechanical voice came from the console: "Master, don’t panic, as long as I am still hanging on the Flying, even if it breaks into two, it doesn’t matter!"

Only then did Da Fei come to his senses! Right! The Flying is suspended by dozens and hundreds of cables to balloons, when the lotus root breaks, the silk is still connected!

Then in the next moment, Tamilia also appeared in front of Da Fei, very nervous, saying: "Lord City Lord, we must urgently repair the supporting structure of the Flying! I suggest using the Hydra’s Dragon Bone! It’s the only material we have capable of supporting such massive trauma!"

Hydra’s Dragon Bone!? Right! I still have Dragon Bone! Da Fei hurriedly waved his big hand: "Then act immediately! All units begin repairs!"

At this time, the surprised voice of the Demon King came from the sea surface: "You actually weren’t shattered immediately? You really surprise me! However, you won’t escape your fate of dying!"

At this moment, Da Fei’s face was pale, and sweat poured down his whole body! There’s still the Demon King! If he fires another shot, I’m finished, all my repairs will be meaningless!

Then Deirdre quickly flew over to report: "Master, don’t worry, the Demon King used all his strength for that last hit! He now has to rest too, we must race against time with him! Also, his consecutive shots in extreme anger consumed a lot, which might prolong his resting time, we aren’t without a chance!"

That’s it! Da Fei slowly relaxed, it seems even if I accidentally faced a God-level Monster and messed up, the system still gave players chances, not completely giving players a dead end! This is the last chance, I must escape alive!

And at this moment, a crazy thought arose in Da Fei’s mind amidst despair and hope, if there’s no time for rescue, do I have a chance for a last stand, sending troops to launch a counterattack? After all, his consumption is also great?(To be continued. If you like this work, welcome to visit Qidian (qidian.com) for votes and monthly tickets, your support is my biggest motivation.
