Chapter 789 - The Twelve Generals (2/2)

“11283！”

“10299！”

“11571！”

I tried again. This time, I put all my energy into my Zhen Yue Blade and threw a [Wind Slash] right onto his neck——

“17362！”

This time I finally hit a sore spot. Iron Scale roared and raised his Wave Break Blade, throwing a slash right onto my Hidden Dragon armor. When he saw the general badge at my waist, he coldly smiled, “So you’re the general of the Royal Army. Go die——[Tidal Slash]!”

It was the Tidal Slash skill! I felt a cold shudder through my chest, and in the next moment, a flame blossomed on my armor. You could say it was like a tide. “Peng!” I flew back from the impact and an enormous damage number popped up over my head. That Iron Scale’s attack power was just too terrifying. He was practically on par with a Demon King——

“38183！”

Han Yuan and Long Xing both cried out, “Lord general!”

Matcha glanced at me, shock written across her face, “Thankfully it was boss that took that hit. If it was anyone else… I don’t even want to think about it!”

Li Mu and Wang Jian had already surrounded Iron Scale and dealt attacks from all four sides. I lead my horse forward and charged at the BOSS once again. Iron Scale roared and slashed at everyone. He then dealt another [Surround Slash]. Li Mu and Wang Jian all retreated, but even so, everyone lost over 50,000 health.

“Matcha!” Wan Er shouted.

Without a pause, Matcha marched forward and rammed against the BOSS. She then activated [Holy Provoke]. Iron Scale immediately changed his attacks to attack Matcha. With a cold laugh, he mocked, “You dare provoke me? You naive little brat!”

“Keng keng keng…”

His Break Wave Blade created sparks as it slashed against the Lion King Shield. From a distance, Darling Duck continued to feed Matcha [Heal]s. It was only like that, that she managed to take all of the hits. Dong Cheng, Dancing Forest, and Xing Lie all opened fire. Dancing Forest used her [Break Armor Shot] to lower his defenses. That way, Xing Lie and Li Mu could break through his defense. Otherwise, with Iron Scale’s defense stats, just one slash would only take one to two thousand damage. At that rate, when would they ever finish?

……

The Royal Army all organized their formation. As the Yasha attacked them, they supported us with arrows. With the NPC working together, Iron Scale’s health dropped much quicker. Within ten minutes, it was already getting to the bottom.

“The gods of the sea will never forgive you!” Iron Scale screeched at us. With his Break Wave Blade in hand, he looked up at the sky and shouted, “Water God, please give me your power. Lend me the strength to kill my enemies!”

A ray of light fell and the Water God Possession was complete. His health recovery increased by 400%, furthermore his attack power increased by 20%. In one [Surround Slash], Iron Scale instantly killed three Steel Blade Horsemen. Li Mu and Wang Jian both quickly retreated. The three Steel Blade Horsemen that had been killed were all wearing the Black Flame Armor, and yet they were still instantly killed. Who knew just how strong he had become!?

I quickly recast [Wall of Dou Qi] and [Frost Armor] on myself. I went forward to provoke the BOSS. Never would I have imagined that he would remember a Royal Army General like me. As such, he immediately counter attacked with another [Tidal Slash]!

“Peng!”

“71287！”

I flew back from the hit. I was nearly instantly killed in that one hit! Thankfully I was at full health…

I quickly gulped down a potion. Han Yuan and Xiao Lie were both distressed “B*st*rd, don’t you dare make a move on our general!”

A group of Royal Army horsemen charged forward to attack. They threw slashes and stabs onto Iron Scale, but quite a few couldn’t even break through his defense. Rather, Iron Scale used a single sweep of his blade and cut seven of the Royal Army horsemen in half!

I was starting to get panicked, “Don’t stop your fire! We need to control the BOSS with our skills!”

As I said that, I used a [Beast Lock] on the BOSS from afar. Unfortunately it was a MISS. I clenched my teeth and used another special skill——[Grip of Purgatory]. “Hua!” It locked Iron Scale in his original position. Now, he could no longer move. Dong Cheng and Dancing Forest continued shooting their spells. I also threw a [Seven Star Fragment Slash]+[Great Realm of Desolation]. I then also added an [Azure Dragon Crossbow]. It was only then that Iron Scale’s health finally began dropping again.

“D*mn*d cowards!”

Iron Scale roared and charged ahead with only 2% health. He hacked down two other Steel Blade Horsemen with his blade, only to be stunned by Dancing Forest’s [Scatter Shot]. I then cast another [Charge] and rammed against the BOSS. I quickly followed with a [Strength of a Thousand Men]. In between the attacks, the BOSS’ health finally emptied and a bell sounded through the battlefield——

“Ding!”

“System Announcement: Congratulations Player [Xiao Yao Zi Zai] for killing one of the Twelve Generals of the Deep Sea [Iron Scale]. You have received the following reward: Level+1, Charm+30, Achievements+200, Gold+40000!”
