529 The Fight between the Tier 5 Veterans and Demon Evasion (1/2)

The battle between Netherspirit's Menace and Dark Dragon was extremely intense, dropping every spectator's jaw to the ground. From the first Tier 5 AoE magic attack bursting in the sky to the powerful mix of hurricane and hailstorm, the attacks never stopped. The shockwaves of the elements and magic kept bombarding them again and again. It seemed that it would not stop ever.

It was not only difficult for the Tier 4 players to stay in the area. Even the Tier 5 champions were spooked by the swirling storms of wind and ice elements running amok in front of them.

The ”Hurricane Hailstorm” was so thick that it was impossible to see through it to find out what happened inside. Yet, as the magic storm started to get nastier, they also knew that the battle was getting to the climax. The AoE spell not only had not stopped but the intensity and quantity were increasing by the second. They did not know those were all cast by Dark Dragon though.

Suddenly, after the fourth wave of AoE magic attacks, a few Tier 5 Elementalists finally were able to penetrate the magic storm using their Elemental Perception. Well, they did not have to do that though—the ”Hurricane Hailstorm” was about to calm down too.

As the storm settled down, an utterly eerie scene appeared in front of everyone.

Dark Dragon was still hovering in the air but Netherspirit's Menace was directly below him. They were only a dozen meters from one another and both their barriers were still intact and undamaged.

Unbelievable!

It was such an intense battle. Both of them must have endured so much damage by now and yet not a scratch on their barrier? Did they reactivate their barriers after every exchange of blows?

Then, they noticed something else that was also very peculiar—Dark Dragon's pet, the Misty Beast, had disappeared.

***

The spectators' Elemental Perceptions were all activated again, detecting and viewing the battleground from every corner. Naturally, it was the same for the two combatants too. After re-activating their perceptions, they started hurling Wind Darts and Frost Arrows at one another.

This time though, Dark Dragon had locked onto his opponent. Thus, his attacks were not missed.

He saw how Netherspirit's Menace killed his pet right under his nose after he used every single one of his AoE Magic Scroll.

Fortunately, his Misty Beast did not die in vain. It was able to help stall his opponent until everyone's Elemental Perception was recovered. Dark Dragon was able to destroy his Darkfrost Shield in retaliation.

Yet, Dark Dragon's own shield was also shattered by Qin Ruo's attack—an attack that was even more powerful than the one he dished on him. His equipment was a full Legendary set, one that was much more powerful than Raziel's. It was so unthinkable that his attack's damage would lose to his opponent's.

The battle finally was coming to an end.

Both combatants did not evade attacks. Both combatants did not take more potions. Both combatants just hurled the most fatal magic attacks they had in their arsenals at one another.

Just like that. Direct hits on each other.

Until their last breaths.

Groowwl!

Three huge Lycan Barrages let out long growls as they charged at their target after Qin Ruo's first wave of consecutive Frost Arrows. Even though he had taken out the Misty Beast, Qin Ruo did not lower his guard.

Indeed, his HP was now over three thousand. However, Dark Dragon probably had the same amount of HP too. This Dark Dragon had advanced to Tier 5 a long time ago. Naturally, he must have acquired several Legendary equipment throughout his gaming career.

However, his gears' advantage was not all that overwhelming.

After Elemental Perception was recovered, Qin Ruo knew he must act quickly. Every single mistake would be his last if he were to make them. Thus, without hesitation he threw everything he had at his opponent—penetrating shields with Frost Arrows, hurling out powerful Lycan Barrages and also launching a salvo of Frost Bullets.

The Frost Bullets came right after the Lycan Barrages, all landed on Dark Dragon's barrier. However, he put a small disguise on them—to the spectators, it was a trio of huge swords made of ice hitting Dark Dragon's body.

***

Dark Dragon also was following the same train of thought as Qin Ruo.

Before he was able to destroy Netherspirit's Menace's Darkfrost Shield, he hurled out three golden shockwaves, made of wind elements, while activating his equipment's skill ”Invisible Airblade”. To activate magic attacks using magic scrolls, one must allow a second or two for it to be activated. However, if it was using the skill that was already enchanted on his equipment, it would only take a split second.

Every strike was about 500 to 600 points of damage. If one were to take out the damage dealt on Qin Ruo's shield and barrier, each attack that landed on him was about 400 points.

It was more than enough to kill an Elementalist with this series of combo attacks.

Yet, the next thing he saw three ice swords darting at him.
