Chapter 170: A Matter of Life or Death
Barbaric Tackle!
Zhang ZhengXiong charged with his shield like a tank made of meat. Old Mar had no choice but to block with his sword. The tremendous force from the collision pushed the boss back a step. CloudDragon who had been continuously battering him took this opportunity to sweep out with his leg. Knockdown successful! Ye Cangâs rapier stabbed like a silver serpent. Lin Le leaped over and took this chance to perform an Execute! His blade chopped down on Old Marâs throat dealing a tremendous amount of damage.
YellowSprings also appeared, smashing down with his hilt, followed by a Heavy Strike and Rising Slash!
Lin Le who had just chopped down, roared and pulled his sword up with all his strength and Old Mar along with it. Rising Slash! Whirlwind Strike!
SpyingBlade dodged past Lin Leâs attack and stabbed the boss. He once again dodged and slashed out. Every dodge would be accompanied by an attack, looking exceptionally agile.
Water began bubbling ontop of Ye Cangâs hand. Tidal Wave! CloudDragon backflipped to avoid it, then when his feet touched the ground, he pushed off, charging back into battle.
NalanMoon dodged past the frankenstein monsterâs powerful attack, and happened to see the other sideâs mad assault. None of them lacked the air of a daring expert. Such a powerful little team probably didnât even exist in the Freedom Alliance. CloudDragonâs aerial combat and combos were too strong. If launched into the air, normal players would be helpless before him. Even FlameEmperor would have trouble escaping his aerial combosâŠ
ThornyRose began to feel a bit anxious. The boss still hadnât died. The pressure on this side was getting pretty big. This thing was hard to kill. It had high defence, high health, so wasnât something they could kill quickly. Her eyes kept glancing over at the battle on Ye Cangâs side where everyone was attacking from all directions, crisscrossing and moving as if they had some sort of mutual understanding.
Shaking Bear can actually keep up with them? As expected of a freak with a godlike physique.
She smiled bitterly.
Heâs even a priest. No matter how he builds, he would still become an important part of any team.
At this time, Old Mar who was being comboed in the air was emitting little black spirits from his body. Ye Cang tried stabbing one with his sword.
Physical attacks arenât working!?
He was then hit by one of the ghostly imageâs claw and took 9 damage. Then, the image returned to Old Marâs body, before coming out once again.
What is this?
âNot good! Heâs stealing our health with the ghosts!â YellowSprings shouted.
Zhang ZhengXiong wave his shield, shooting out a multi-colored light which terrified the ghosts, but it only stopped them for a moment. The ringâs abilities also shot out, making a burst of holy fire. All these colorful abilities exploded out, dealing quite a bit of damage, but was unable to stop the ghosts from plundering their health.
âItâs no use. Your light isnât enough to scare meâŠâ Old Mar continued to slowly recover. The ghosts even went as far as to steal health from ThornyRoseâs side. The entire team fell into a hopeless situation.
âRoar~â CloudDargon used his last card, Mountain Tigerâs Roar! Everyoneâs attributes were raised. Lin Le crushed two gold coins. Everyone once again began a violent storm of attacks.
Ye Cangâs straight thrust combo appeared once again, so fast that Old Mar couldnât even react. However, the damage it dealt was limited. The speed at which Old Mar was healing was just too fast. Seeing the swordstaff beginning to emit a diabolical energy, he turned into a shadow which performed 6 attacks, then when he returned, he pulled out his heavy crossbow, and aimed at the back of Old Marâs head. Fire! The huge bolt directly shot through his skull. This attack brought about a significant amount of damage. After pulling the trigger, he once again left a water clone behind and moved away to begin casting a Flame BurstâŠ
Old Mar was furious. He turned and chopped towards Ye Cang, but he didnât feel the expected feeling of chopping through bones and flesh. He immediately knew it was a fake, but the water clone had already exploded, pushing him back, causing him to stagger. Lin Le lowered his body, waiting for his chance. CloudDragon once again grabbed the opportunity to launch the boss into the air. SpyingBladeâs dagger and blade danced, only leaving behind shadows. YellowSprings activated the anti-cavalry bladeâs Bloodmoon Chop!
Lin Le leapt over dragging his handcart, and smashed old Mar into a wall. Ye Cangâs flame burst arrived at this time, smashing him deeper into the wall. BlackIce and GreenDew were about to cast a magic missile at the frankenstein monster but saw this chance. They suddenly changed targets, and their chain of magic missiles all smashed into Old Marâs skeletal body, further embedding him into the wall.
The system still hadnât said anything. CloudDragon saw that the number of ghosts were increasing.
Was this guy unkillable!?
âLooks like you all still donât understand the gap between usâŠâ Old Mar easily jumped out of the wall as if nothing had happened. He reached out a hand to straighten his crooked head, then raised his swordstaff, preparing a big move.
âInterrupt him!â CloudDragon shouted, then took the lead to charge over, however it was too late. No one made it in time. All their movement skills were on cooldown.
Ye Cang stared closely at Old Marâs magic. When it was just about to be cast! Steal Spell!
Succeed! You have to succeed!!
Success!
Ye Cang was delighted. He felt the power of the spell he had stolen. Netherworld Shock!
CloudDragon and the others saw that Old Marâs spellcasting had stopped. Zhang ZhengXiong suddenly realized, and turned to look at Ye Cang right hand which was covered in a ghostly blue magic.
So itâs my broâs Steal Spell!
BlackIce was alarmed.
That skill can even steal a bossâs ultimate spell!? Impossible! It must be a fluke. That skill must have very strict conditions to use. He must have activated it at the perfect moment, and got lucky on top of that. Also, the boss wasnât expecting it. But I still canât deny that, that skill, if used well, could really turn a battle around.
âSteal Spell!? You! Wait! Youâre a half-elf!? Disgusting mixed-breed!â Old Mar was already doubtful. How was that knight so proficient in magic? He never expected him to be a half-elf!
âNetherworld Shock!â Ye Cang threw out the ghostly blue energy, which engulfed old Mar. All the armor on his body began breaking, thoroughly inflicting heavy damage. Even the black ghostly imaged looked like they were sufferingâŠ
The shock brought Old Mar down to his knees. CloudDragon and the others knew they had to use this chance to take his life. They couldnât give him anymore opportunities!!
The swordstaff stabbed into the ground, and a pair of skeletal hands emitted a dark energy on the hilt. White spirits rushed out from the ground. Soon, some sort of gas also started leaking out from the ground. Everyoneâs health began to fall very quickly.
Was this still not enough?
Ye Cang pulled out his longbow, and quickly aimed and shot continuously. The swordstaff formed a protective screen, blocking the arrows. CloudDragon and the others felt like they were treading through a marsh, and even had to deal with attacks from spiritsâŠ
Is this the end?
ThornyRose sighed. This was too abnormal. They clearly just gained the advantage, so how did this suddenly happen⊠She saw that the frankenstein monster was quickly healing with the help of the strange gas. They fought the whole time for damn nothingâŠ
A black shadow broke through the swordstaffâs protection and longsword stabbed into Old Marâs head.
âItâs you⊠that little thingâŠâ The light in Old Marâs eyeâs began to fade out as he looked at the man in front of him.
CloudDragon and Ye Cang both sighed in relief. Itâs the mayor! As expected of the mayor who was also boss of the guards. He had some moves.
âGauteng, everything will meet itâs end. Father⊠you can rest in peace now.â Mar pulled out his longsword with a sigh. The flames in his fatherâs head gradually stopped burning, but he said one final thing before his death. âThe Hall of Shadows⊠will cleanse this worldâŠâ
Everyone heard the keyword âHall of Shadowsâ. CloudDragon raised his eyebrows. This must be an evil organization outside the beginner villages.
