Chapter 588 - Suck Up and End the Battle
“Go!” yelled Lin Jie.
“Damn it, let’s go!” His teammates grew determined as the 2 Weapon Specialists, and one of the Bandits went from the left, and the remaining Bandit dashed from the right. Lin Jie’s weak team was on the offensive!
The four quivering and jittering teammates showcased a hint of bravery when they bolted across fearlessly. They were only average players in the game and didn’t lead a smooth sailing life in the real world either. Obviously, Zhang Junyi had dumped them on Lin Jie’s team because he looked down on them. How could a man lack dignity? They would retaliate when being forced to a corner!
In the heat of the moment, they were fearless!
Zhang Junyi controlled his character and whipped three floundering monsters.
Lash: A special Summoner’s skill that can boost the Summoned Beast’s battle desire. Increases the Summoned Beast’s Attack by 3%, Movement Speed, and Critical Hit attributes can be superimposed five times.
Swoosh!
After three consecutive whips, the three floundering beasts glowed and began roaring ferociously.
Forward Charge! Forward Charge!
The beasts bolted towards Lin Jie and blasted a slap onto his Kiara Beast King Armor.
-94! -37!
…
Zhang Junyi frowned slightly. ‘How could the damage be so low!?’
“Since Lone Wolf can’t retaliate, let’s gang up and kill him to end this fight!”
“What about the four of them?”
“Do you think they could kill us with their Silver equipment?”
Zhang Junyi’s teammates nodded in agreement, and the two Summoners called out 16 Lightning Elves that dashed towards Lin Jie at the speed of light. The Paladin wielded a large weapon, while the Priest contributed to the attacks with its punishment attack.
The four disregarded, charging fellows were embarrassed beyond words!
“Weapon Specialists, Forward Charge with Intersection, and Bandit, Forward Sprint straight ahead. Blast once towards the Priest and retreat.” Lin Jie gave the commands at the right moment as he dodged the Lightning Elves’ attacks perfectly. He crossed his arms and instructed with ease.
The Weapon Specialists reversed and used Forward Charge with Intersection, and the Priest was right in the middle!
The Priest was stunned for a moment before a condescending look appeared on his face. Did they plan to kill with that sort of Forward Charge? He raised his arms and unleashed Light Protection! Any target that came close within the next second would be blasted away.
However, unexpectedly, the Weapon Specialists’ Forward Charge was just like it sounded—they just passed right by the Priest.
As Light Protection diminished, the Bandit stabbed his Silver daggers straight in the Priest’s chest and twisted as they unleashed a clumsy combo attack that drained away half of the latter’s health bar!
It was ridiculous for a Bandit to only drain half of a Priest’s health bar after a combo attack.
“Hahahaha…” The Priest began guffawing, but he was actually terrified. He didn’t expect those four weaklings to be capable of such coordinated attacks. They drew his attention away using the Weapon Specialists before launching an explosive attack with the Bandit. If it weren’t for their weak attacking power, he would have been dead!
Zhang Junyi furrowed his brows, and even the Priest’s mockery could not conceal his panic. ‘Lone Wolf indeed lives up to his name. His simple command sent the four noobs launching a threatening attack!’
All of a sudden, Zhang Junyi realized that something felt off.
Everything… was silent!
The Priest grew silent abruptly as his eyes bulged wide, and a curse sounded. His body emitted a white glow.
Death!
Screech—
Suddenly, the Crescent Silver-Feathered Eagle landed on Lin Jie’s shoulders with some blood in its mouth. It had instakilled the Priest! Its current Attack was comparable to that of a top-notch Assassin, and it only lacked in its skills. It would definitely become a killing machine as it continued to grow!
“Brothers, retreat.”
Lin Jie’s instructions were redundant as his teammates had already retreated to the safe zone. Surprise filled their faces, and the thirst for victory consumed them, besides the insane realization that they had survived.
“So powerful!”
“That Priest on Zhang Junyi’s team was equipped with 1,000 Leaves’ Healing Set! He was instakilled just like that!?”
“What pet is that? The damage it dealt was so high!”
The battle grew in intensity amidst their discussions! The Paladin obstructed the attacking path as the two Summoners behind began chanting. More and more Lightning Elves were summoned, and their number soon grew to over 20.
Lin Jie squinted his eyes as he realized that Zhang Junyi was going to give his all.
The two Summoners belonged to the category of Element Summoners, which was further split into the two subcategories of Sacrificial and Self-Destruct. Sacrificial Summoners would summon out Elements, or even the Elemental Queen, to fight for them, while the latter would call out numerous Elements that would kill the enemy by self-destruction. From their way of fighting, they belonged to the latter.
“Charge! Blast out all of your attacks!” directed Lin Jie.
“Okay!” They lunged forward without consideration. If someone else was giving out the commands, they wouldn’t have followed them. Running straight into the swamp of Lightning Elves was equivalent to courting death. However, they had enough faith and trust in Lone Wolf to follow his lead!
Forward Charge!
Rush!
The Bandits and Weapon Specialists stormed forward, brandishing their giant axes and daggers as they plowed towards the Summoners!
The Paladin nodded and supported immediately. He pivoted his right foot and activated Consecration! Holy Light lava flowed out in waves, and the two Summoners followed Zhang Junyi’s instructions to split out some Lightning Elves to destroy the four underlings!
“Cold Blood! Pierce Bone!”
-573!
“Heroic Strike!”
Instead of dodging, the four players concentrated all their attacks on the Summoners, inciting their curses and swears. Were they being brainwashed? Just charging without any care, they must have gone mad!
Elemental Sacrifice!
Thunderbolts flashed from the Lightning Elves as they sizzled and imploded!
“Holy Spirit Armor!” Amidst the dust and flying debris, Lin Jie cried out, and a brilliant gold armor wrapped up his teammates. Various deep and profound runes formed by rare ores ran across the surface as it appeared indestructible.
The Lightning Elves’ self-destruction attacks were blasted on the Armor of Miluos.
The armor vibrated slightly, and the attacks were completely absorbed, rendering them futile.
“Silver-Feathered Eagle, go ahead.” As another light ray swopped past, the eagle claimed the life of a Summoner.
“Ahhh, kill them!” Zhang Junyi had gone insane—how could five elites not defeat four noobs and one pet? What sick joke was that!?
“Our attacks have to hit the targets. When this item’s boosted, it’s almost invincible.” His teammates were suffering as well, and despite their continuous attacks, they were all useless. The remaining Summoner was facing all the attacks from the axes and daggers, before getting his neck pierced straight through by the Crescent Silver-Feathered Eagle! The Summoner died! The Paladin couldn’t even stop it in time.
Zhang Junyi’s eyes grew crimson red. The students were still staring at him, and he would definitely be the greatest joke if he lost this battle! He trembled in fear before making the decision—Possession! He transformed into a ray of light, and the three floundering monsters clambered on as they transformed in a three-meter-tall Mega Flounder!
Flounder, also known as ‘Human Octopus’, was made up of tentacles, and its attributes were Magic Absorption. Its Expel was capable of stealing the opponent’s boosting buff. Zhang Junyi caught everyone by surprise when he transformed right when the Lightning Elves imploded.
The Flounder wrapped the four players up and used Expel to suck away their Holy Light Armor. He then whipped them once, before releasing the possession and went back to his original location as though nothing had happened.
“Consecration! Holy Thunderstorm!” The Paladin took this chance and inflicted damage. The four Silver players were instakilled by their combo attacks.
As the dust and smoke dissipated, only the Paladin and Zhang Junyi were left standing.
“Hahaha, Lone Wolf, you lost!” Cold sweat clambered down Zhang Junyi’s back, and he prayed hard that Lin Jie had not realized his underhanded means. He began taunting and steering his attention away.
“Of course, of course.” Lin Jie began clapping, “Your skin’s thickness is multiple times mine. I admit defeat.”
Zhang Junyi’s heart dropped. “Enough with your nonsense! Do you think that you can turn the tables with your Silver-Feathered Eagle? Flounders, go!”
The situation was extremely unfavorable!
“Lone Wolf lost!” One of the smug students concluded. “The Silver-Feathered Eagle should be an Assassin-type pet. Its output is very high, but its health bar isn’t. It will be instakilled the moment it attacks without proper defense.”
“Lone Wolf got restrained too much. All the rules were targeted at him.”
“Zhang Junyi is so shameless!”
“Hmph, who could Lone Wolf blame for his arrogance?”
“Nonsense, even with the restrictions, Lone Wolf still has him under control. But someone—”
Just at that moment, the situation took a 180-degrees turn!
A warhorse appeared beside Lin Jie! It looked magnificent, and its horn seemed to be carved out of moonlight. The trotters were raised high, and the surrounding air vibrated with energy. The sky and constellations trembled, as though they were about to fall!
Star Fall!
“Oh no, hurry up and kill him!” Zhang Junyi shouted with shock as the damage values of the Flounders and Paladin began popping up.
-1
-1
-1
How could the duo break through Lin Jie’s defense, which was a combination of his Kiara Beast King Armor and Armor of Miluos? Both the Paladin and Summoner lacked the Armor Ignore skill! Lin Jie snorted as he patted the Crescent Warhorse’s butt, and the meteor crashed down.
Zhang Junyi and the Paladin were pounded unwillingly to death by the meteorite.
The battle had ended!
Lin Jie did not even raise a finger, yet he was able to destroy a team of elites with 4 Silver Level 40 players and 2 Pets.
Everyone was shocked.
Zhang Junyi woke up from the PK Machine. When he walked down the stage, he received all sorts of judgemental glances and finger-pointing from the entire student body.
“Losing even after listing all those rules, tsk, tsk, tsk..”
“So this is the Legendary Master, Zhang Junyi? Now I know.”
“I heard that he broke the rules just now by secretly transforming and absorbing the armor from the four players on Lone Wolf’s team. He even bashed them up.”
“What the f*ck, are you serious?”
“How can this be fake? My friend saw it for himself!”
Zhang Junyi began trembling hard on stage as his nails sunk into his palm. He bit down hard on his lips, till blood gushed out. He let out a loud scream before leaving the place.
He couldn’t stay here any longer!
Zhang Junyi’s teammates felt shameful and left quietly as well. The other four players, however, were greeted by favorable glances. They had continued to fight despite facing experts that were much more powerful than them. They had even managed to slay a couple of them—great job! The four fellows looked around fervently but were no longer able to catch Lin Jie.
“My dorm’s lights are going off soon. I have to get back…” And those were the last words that the regal Codename Lone Wolf left behind.
