Chapter 408: Have You Heard Of The Story Of The Mantis Stalking The Cicada? [1]
Translator: Sparrow Translations Editor: Sparrow Translations
This was a Shamanâs Distortion Enchantment!
When Wang Yu saw the two circles, his pupils instantly constricted.
There werenât many Dark Shamans in <>. Its attack couldnât make it, it couldnât run fast, it couldnât jump high and it was a cloth-armoured job. Basically, there werenât any advantages to it.
It had a crowd control skill, a super-far-range skill and it could slow down the spread of poison. However, when compared to the effects of the skills of an Ice Magician, a Shaman really couldnât compete.
Since thatâs the case, this job was even weaker than a Pugilist. Because of this, many people didnât even consider this job. It wasnât like a Pugilist which was popular but ended up being disappointing.
Thus, in many parties, you wouldnât see any Shamans.
As a Pugilist that moved as fast as a swallow and had speedy reflexes, there werenât many skills currently in <> that Wang Yu needed to be afraid of. The only skill that could cause a headache for Wang Yu was a Dark Shamanâs Distortion Enchantment.
For example, Ice Magic like Icicles and Ice Thorns could be shot down and dodged. Even if he ended up getting hit and slowed down, he could use Roll to avoid the following attacks.
However, Distortion was different. Firstly, this skill could not be shot down. Secondly, this skillâs domain was very big. If he wanted to avoid it, he would need to run out of the skillâs boundary before it was activated.
Finally, this skill causes rooting. That meant that if he was hit by this skill, he would be rooted and he wouldnât be able to run. For a job that depended on running around, this skill was its kryptonite.
When Wang Yu first came, he didnât see any Shamans among Godlessâs party. He didnât expect that there would be two of them among the 20 that laid in ambush.
âToo careless!â
Seeing that the Distortion was about to fully activate, Wang Yu sighed. Just as he wanted to use Sunset Shift to escape, he saw two figures appearing behind the two Shamans.
It was Frost Blade and Darknorth Fisher. They could also tell that Wang Yu was in a difficult position, so they ran behind the two Shamans. Rabbit Strike, Backstab, Throat Cut. With this combo of moves, the two Shamans were turned into white light.
When the users were killed, the skills would disperse like smoke.
Seeing that the two Shamans were eliminated, Wang Yu smiled and immediately eased his worries. His second Eagle Stomp landed on the ground.
When Godless saw Wang Yu landing on the ground, he immediately raised his spear and stabbed forward. Wang Yu laughed slightly and his two hands suddenly grabbed Godlessâs arms. After which, he laid backwards and kicked hard at Godlessâs crotch. With an âAiyaâ, Godless was thrown towards the three Weapons Masters that were running over.
The three Weapons Masters were caught off guard and they were thrown into a mess. At the same time, Godless was kicked into a white light.
This move was called Ground Rolling Throw; it was a throwing skill that made use of the ground. The use of the two legs wasnât for attack, but support for the hands.
There was no other way. The Knight jobâs attack was definitely the strongest among all the jobs here. At such high levels, that advantage becomes more prominent. If Wang Yu did not use both his hands and legs, he really wouldnât be able to throw a cumbersome Knight.
Because of that backward roll that he used on Godless, Wang Yu luckily avoided the attacks from the Archers and Magicians.
Wang Yu hurriedly rolled back once more and crounched. He equipped himself with a pole and started to roll backwards while sticking close to the ground. The four thieves were knocked out of their Stealth.
These four thieves were struck at their ankles and knocked onto the ground.
Wang Yu picked up one of the Thieves by the head and flung him forward, destroying the Magiciansâ formation. Finally, he jumped up and used Crushing Blow, successfully jumping out of the encirclement.
From the moment that he landed on the ground to the moment he escaped, Wang Yuâs actions flowed as smoothly as water. There was no form of hesitation. With those actions, Godless was killed, and three Weapons Masters and four Thieves were tripped onto the ground. This hitherto unseen attack style left the people of Feng Yun Guild completely dumbfounded.
âWhat motherf*cking skill is that?â
âItâs some rare skill, rightâŠâ
âSo impressiveâŠâ
âImpressive your head! Hurry and chase after him! Donât let him escape!â
It was unknown who shouted that, but upon those words, the entire group hurriedly chased after Wang Yu.
An Archer could run fast, so it was reasonable for them to chase after Wang Yu. However, there was completely no point for those Magicians to join the chase as well. By the time the Feng Yun Guild reached the road intersection, only the Archers and the four unlucky Thieves could still keep up with Wang Yu.
At this point, Wang Yu suddenly stopped running, turned back and asked, âHave you heard the story of the mantis stalking the cicada?â [1]
The Archers were instantly petrified. Was this dude a teacher? He was going to die but he was still in the mood to tell stories⊠However, before they reacted, they had already run into the circle in front of Wang Yu.
âBoomâŠâ
A Distortion Enchantment was activated; the 10 Archers and the four Thieves all were rooted onto the ground. Following which, they felt the ground below them heating up and a wave of numbness assaulting their entire bodies. By the time they opened their eyes again, they were already at their respawn points.
âGood good, thereâs no PK valueâŠâ After eliminating everyone, Ming Du peeked out from a corner.
Just now, it was Feng Yun Guild that started the attack on Wang Yu. As Wang Yuâs party member, Ming Du was also allowed time for self-defence. Otherwise, getting a PK value of 14 here in Thorn City was enough to screw him over.
âWhereâs Little Chicky?â Spring Halo, Fearless and the rest also popped out and asked Wang Yu.
âIâm here.â On a rooftop not far away, Vainglory was sitting with his legs crossed. He casually waved towards the group.
When Fearless saw that Vainglory had escaped, he said to the group, âLetâs hurry and leave. I seem to feel that something is amiss. We cannot stay here for long!â
âEn!â The group nodded, turned and headed towards the teleportation formation. At this time, the remaining members of Feng Yun Guild had caught up to them.
As the respawn point was very close, the killed Archers and Godless was among them.
Seeing that the Quan Zhen Sect was about to leave, Godless said coldly, âYou want to run? Do you think itâs that easy?â
Fearless laughed coldly and stared at Godless, âWho exactly are you people?â
Godless, âPeople that you cannot afford to offend?â
âOffend? Speak, are you referring to this game or some other game?â Fearless asked.
The number of people that the Quan Zhen Sect offended was enough to fill an ocean. Merely saying the word âoffendâ wasnât enough for Fearless to determine exactly where the Feng Yun Guild came from. However, Fearless knew one thing: he had never heard of the Feng Yun Guild before this.
Godless, âIt doesnât matter what game. Either way, you can forget about leaving!â
Hearing Godlessâs words, the members of Quan Zhen Sect started laughing.
Ming Du spoke with disdain, âJust with you little fish? Iâm afraid you wouldnât even be able to retain one of us!â
When they heard these words, the faces of the members of Feng Yun Guild all turned red. Ming Du wasnât lying. Just now, they had more than 30 people facing one person. However, they still allowed that person to escape and they even lost some membersâŠ
Godless laughed coldly, âTo be honest, you are very impressive. We are indeed unable to block you!â
âThen why donât you f*ck off?â Ming Du waved his staff threateningly.
âWe are unable to block you. However, have you heard of the story of the mantis stalking the cicada?â [1]
Ming Duâs heart tightened and he asked, âWhatâs the meaning of this?â
âExactly what you are thinking of!â
At this moment, a foreign voice sounded from behind the members of Quan Zhen Sect.
[1] In the story of the mantis stalking the cicada, the mantis was so focused on the cicada that it didnât notice the sparrow behind it.
