Chapter 736 – Defeat the Many with the Few (2/2)
Afternoon Knight raised the Lion King Shield and smiled, “Alright!”
As he said that, he charged ahead. He shot forward like a blade. Moon Feather reacted quickly and rose up. However, she couldn’t hold against the attack and was stunned by a [Brave Ram]. She retreated several steps. A couple of the enemy’s horsemen charged into place. With a [Blade Rush]+[Battle Axe Throw], Moon Feather was forced even further. There was no more time left, she was being battered by different combos and skills. Her Black Flame Shield was broken. She cried out as she fell off the her horse as she died.
Li Mu and Wang Jian roared and charged forward. [Skyshaker Slash]+[Covering Slash]+[Halberd Whirlwind] all exploded against Afternoon Knight. Right as each attack hit, a black energy shield appeared. He had activated his skill [Thunder Armor] and [Heavenly Shield Wall]. To top it off, he hid behind the Lion King’s Shield to avoid the attacks. The damage numbers flew up, and shocked everyone——
“912!”
“1008!”
“1327!”
……
Afternoon Knight’s total health was just over 60,000. In the end, Wang Jian and Li Mu’s attack barely tickled him. Matcha nearly fell off of her Thousand League Moonlight in astonishment. She gaped, “Isn’t that a little too exaggerated? There’s one that dealt below a thousand damage. D*mn… just what is his defense!?”
Xing Lie and Dancing Forest both concentrated their attacks on this country weapon bearer but heaven knows just how much defense that Lion King’s Shield had added for him. Even their attacks probably only dealt around a thousand damage or so.
I grit my teeth, “Release all of your attacks on Afternoon Knight. His [Heavenly Shield Wall] cool down only lasts for twelve seconds. It would be too late to kill him then either. Carefully pick your targets. Darling Duck, revive Moon Feather and prepare to retreat!:
As I sent out the commands, I set up an Azure Dragon Crossbow that shot into the crowd of [Dawn] players. At the same time, I swung my blades and dove into the crowd. Now that I had the [Cursed God’s Effect], any player that was killed by me couldn’t revive for sixty minutes. That skill was a great skill, especially for a time like this.
Wan ER, Qing Qian and Wolf and charged into the crowd, stunning and controlling the enemy’s knights. Mirror Lake’s peace was almost completely broken by us. Countless [Dawn] players charged at our group, both in the water and on land. A large part of the map was dyed red from the number of enemies in the area. There was no way we could drag this battle out.
……
“Ha ha, go die!”
Afternoon Knight raised his halberd in one hand with his Lion Shield in the other and was at the pinnacle of attack and defense power. Like that, he charged into Li Mu, landing a [Skyshaker Stab]+[Flame Axe] onto his shoulder!
“7213!”
“6981!”
Looks like that b*st*rd’s attack power isn’t anything special. Li Mu didn’t seem to be afraid in the slightest. He immediately raised both swords. Finally, after the [Heavenly Shield Wall] disappeared, he was able to break his defense——
“4033!”
“3541!”
Still, the damage was low from his other defense stats. To top it off, that Lion King Shield must have impressive stats. Otherwise, he wouldn’t be able to lower Li Mu’s damage by so much. I then charged forward. From the flank, I was able to push Afternoon Knight backwards. I then raised both swords. “Ka ka ka!” I dealth four quick attacks, each striking upon the Lion King Shield and bringing out damage——
“7712!”
“8011!”
“7839!”
“7732!”
……
On the blink of an eye, Afternoon Knight’s health dropped to nearly 50%. The Azure Dragon Bow had shot him in the chest, leaving only around 30% of his health still intact. He quickly retreated and shouted, “That Xiao Yao Zi Zai Chinese person has such a high attack power… Hurry up the charge and kill them!”
I raised my blade and killed another two people.I then shouted to everyone, “[Zhan Long] players, don’t fall prey to the battle. Retreat. Follow my orders. All of the previously listed players, hold the rear!”
Li Mu, Wang Jian, Matcha and Yao Yan followed me and protected the rear. Every one of us had at least 50,000 health and a base defense of 10,000. At least we wouldn’t get insta killed easily. The rest lead their horses and charged towards the distance while we covered for them.
“Peng!”
Icy energy spread out from under my feet while my Ancient Heavenly Tiger roared and pounced on a person before following us towards the west and retreating. Wan Er swung her daggers, stabbing two knights before activating [Absolute Step] and catching up with us. With a leap, she jumped back into her spot in my lap. She then turned around to smile to me, “Based of my estimate of our damage output, we aren’t completely hopeless in trying to steal that Lion King’s Shield.”
