Chapter 1287 - Bait?
“Bang, bang!”
Following the sounds of two collisions, Evil Rampage’s and Crotch Lord’s bodies were thrown back a few metres, escaping the encirclement of the ice cage. Following which, Wang Yu’s figure flashed before he appeared behind the two.
“Dang…”
The ice cage shattered into pieces after failing to hit its target.
Upon seeing this scene, Boundless Ocean felt a shock in his heart.
Ice Cage was an ability which had a relatively short cast time, making it very difficult to dodge the ability the moment it appeared. Even if it was a top-tier expert, it would still be a challenging task. However, not only did Wang Yu escape it himself, he even managed to bring two other players out of it, what the f….
Even though someone like Boundless Ocean had seen numerous experts during his time in the professional scenes, he still found it difficult to accept such a scene.
The role of Wang Yu’s trio was to attract the firepower of the enemy, and wasn’t to lose their lives. Thus, upon seeing how ruthless the enemy was in their methods, the three of them retreated a few steps, leaving the attack range of the Magicians.
However, given the standards of the experts from Kyushu Squad, the moment the formation of the trio was scattered, they immediately realised that something was amiss.
“Eh?”
Omnidirectional, who was situated in front, cried out in suspicion, “There doesn’t seem to be anyone behind them!”
“No one?”
Upon hearing this, Boundless Ocean was stunned silly. He frantically shouted, “Not good, the rest are routing behind us!”
As he was shouting, Boundless Ocean violently turned his head backwards, only to see that the other members from Team A Murder of Crows had already arrived behind them in midair.
“Routing behind us?”
Even though the rest of them did not understand what was going on, upon hearing Boundless Ocean’s words, they hurriedly turned their heads back as well. The moment they saw Fearless and the rest, everyone was stunned speechless.
However, the members from Kyushu Squad were, at the end of the day, still experts. They quickly recovered from their shocked states. The Archers and Magicians immediately aimed their bows and staffs respectively at the group of people flying behind them.
“Not good! We have been discovered! Everyone, hurry up and get back to the ground!”
Upon seeing the members of Kyushu Squad turning their heads around, the hearts of the bunch from Quan Zhen Sect were in a mess. Upon hearing Fearless’ orders, everyone hurriedly kept their wings and descended to the ground from midair.
However, the reaction of the players from Kyushu Squad was extremely quick. Just when the players from Quan Zhen Sect were keeping their wings, the spells and arrows had already arrived at the group.
In a split second, everyone simultaneously activated their abilities to help them reach the ground quicker.
Boson had his Mountain Leap, Ming Du had Flash, Vainglory had Eagle Stomp, and were all abilities that quickened the duration it took for them to reach the ground, thus they were the first three to land.
Yang Nuo’s Sidestep could not be activated in midair. However, her reflexes were exceptionally quick. She hurriedly tilted her body to face the sky before unleashing a Convulsion Arrow to the sky, using the recoil to propel her body towards the ground.
Darknorth Fisher was already a cautious person, thus before Fearless had given the order, he had already kept his wings and fell to the ground ahead of the others, narrowly escaping the attacks.
Fearless and Spring Halo weren’t as lucky. Firstly, neither of them had abilities that could allow them to descend faster, and secondly, they did not have the reflexes of Yang Nuo. Thus, the both of them were blasted into white lights instantly.
At the same time, the members of Team A Murder of Crows received a message from Fearless prior to his death in the team’s chat, saying, “Now the people on top of the mountain are the bait! You should know what to do!”
Upon seeing receiving Fearless’ final order, Ming Du and the rest immediately scattered without a second thought.
Fearless and Spring Halo had always been the brains of Quan Zhen Sect. Upon seeing the both of them getting killed and the formation of the players from Quan Zhen Sect scattering in a chaotic manner, Boundless Ocean involuntarily felt a joy in his heart as he exclaimed, “Fearless is already dead and they are now just a plate of scattered sand, hurry up and finish them off!”
The top of Overlooking Peak was a flat land with a relatively small area, thus, the entire area just so happened to be encompassed within the attack range of an Archer.
However, most of an Archer’s abilities were single target ones, coupled with the fact that the people from Quan Zhen Sect had scattered in separate directions, it was difficult for Kyushu Squad to finish them off in an instant.
Just when everyone was getting ready to eliminate those people from Quan Zhen Sect on top of the mountain, Omnidirectional suddenly shouted, “Not good! The trio at the bottom of the mountain are charging up!”
“!!!”
Upon hearing this, Boundless Ocean hurriedly gave the order, “Archers, deal with the ones on top of the mountain. Magicians, deal with the one below!”
As he was speaking, Boundless Ocean and Innocent Playmate turned their bodies around, and with a wave of their hands, earth-shattering magic once again blocked off the mountain path.
Wang Yu and Evil Rampage were both Pugilists, and did not possess the defences of a Tank like Crotch Lord. If there were Archers joining in the attacks, both of them needed to divert their attention to deal with them. Now that the Archers were distracted, the pressure on the both of them was greatly reduced.
The moment when Boundless Ocean and the rest’s magic landed, Wang Yu and Evil Rampage both leapt into the air to the left and right respectively, splitting up and ascending the mountain from both sides. With relative ease, both of them went around the magic defences put up by Boundless Ocean and arrived in front of Omnidirectional and All Encompassing.
“Let’s go down!”
Upon seeing Wang Yu land in front of him, Omnidirectional unleashed Shield Bash right in front of him.
Wang Yu hid behind the steps.
Omnidirectional’s position was originally above Wang Yu’s. Thus, with a sway of Wang Yu’s figure, he managed to easily dodge Omnidirectional’s Shield Bash.
Upon failing to hit his target, Omnidirectional momentarily lost his balance. Upon seeing this, Wang Yu formed a claw with both of his hands and gripped onto Omnidirectional’s ankle, before ruthlessly flinging him off his feet.
“Aiyayaya!”
Omnidirectional miserably screamed out loud as he was flung down the mountain.
At this moment, Crotch Lord, who was halfway up the mountain and had already breached the magic defences, saw Omnidirectional flying down towards him. He promptly raised his shield and exerted all of his strength in front of him.
“Boom!”
A loud boom resounded in the air as Omnidirectional fainted in front of Crotch Lord’s feet.
After getting tossed down the mountain from tens of metres above, Omnidirectional’s HP had already reduced by half. After suffering the brutal collision with Crotch Lord, his HP bar had instantly reached dangerously low levels.
“Strike the enemy while they are down” had always been Quan Zhen Sect’s motto. Thus, Crotch Lord would naturally not give Omnidirectional a chance to retaliate.
He turned towards Omnidirectional’s body and lowered his head as he charged towards him, flinging Omnidirectional’s body towards the wall of the mountain, displaying his signature move “Ping Pong Ball Fighting Style”. After a few bounces, the miserable Omnidirectional was sent off the stage.
On the other side, All Encompassing had begun exchanging blows with Evil Rampage.
Sun Zi once said, “Great strength can produce miracles.”
As a Pugilist that had all in on Strength, even though in terms of skills, he wasn’t as extravagant as Wang Yu, he was more efficient when it came to combat.
Just when Evil Rampage landed on the ground, All Encompassing instantly swung his broadsword towards him. Upon seeing this, Evil Rampage aggressively took a step forward to dodge All Encompassing’s strike. Following which, he wrapped around All Encompassing’s arm and went around his body, before extending his palm in a fan-like manner and grabbed ahold of the back of All Encompassing’s head.
Evil Rampage had added all of his points into his Strength, causing his strength to be extremely overwhelming. Thus, his judgement naturally surpassed that of a Warrior. After landing in his grip, All Encompassing naturally could not break free from it.
After grabbing ahold of the back of All Encompassing’s head, he ruthlessly threw the figure into the mountain wall by his side.
“Boom!”
All Encompassing’s head violently collide with the mountain wall.
The power-type Evil Rampage did not lose out to Wang Yu when it came to attacking power. Furthermore, the head was an extremely vulnerable part of the body in the game. Thus, with this swing of Evil Rampage, All Encompassing’s HP bar was instantly reduced to half.
With the second swing, All Encompassing turned into a white light and was sent off the stage.
A thick and burly Warrior was easily smashed to death on top of a rock under the hands of Evil Rampage. Upon seeing this scene, the audience involuntarily felt fear in their hearts, and the spirits of Boundless Ocean and the rest immediately left their bodies.
F*ck, this all-in Strength freak was so frightening!
