Chapter 81: Good Luck (2/2)
What a hero. He's literally throwing his life away to protect Coldmoon Rose!
”Hehe…”
Lin Yixin actually chuckled in this situation.
A silver glint that looked as clear as the moon itself entered Lin Yixin's purple pupils. It was none other than her signature skill, Moon Gaze!
Crack!
The magic knight collapsed the very instant the dagger reached him. His eyes were filled with shock. He didn't think that the legendary Fruit Knife G.o.ddess actually had the ability to one-shot any opponent she faced!
2024!
The damage number rising from the magic knight's head was impressive. Moon Gaze guaranteed that Lin Yixin's attack would always. .h.i.t a weak point, and Knightly Protect doubled the damage taken by the caster. It was no wonder that even a tanky magic knight was one-shot.
”Hoho~”
Lin Yixin laughed in the team channel. ”Lu Chen, I've completed my mission. Good luck!”
”Mn!”
I relaxed after Lin Yixin slipped back into the forest with a sliver of HP left. Light wanderers are seriously powerful. Now, it's showtime!
……
The ground was alight with moonlight. As I slowly slithered into the enemy formation using Earth Escape, I saw three mages and two archers dis.h.i.+ng out damage at a nearby shrubbery. I felt a tinge of pleasure when I saw their levels: 42, 41, 40, 40, and 43. They are all high-level players, and they are all as good as dead!
”Focus fire! Haha, we're doing so much work, everyone!”
The Level 43 mage laughed while throwing a Fire Dragon Spell. ”Not only does our squad have the highest DPS out of all the teams, our damage is four times the second team's! Hahaha, give it your all, everyone! If you run out of mana then use some Magic Consumables! There's no need to hold back!”
An archer also laughed while firing a Volley. ”This Level 40 Dark Steel-grade bow is truly powerful. The proc chance is only 1%, but when it does proc, it's worth 10 times the basic attack of another player!”
”Haha, did you guys notice Wind Fantasy trying to take a share of our pie just now? How delusional. She may be number one on the Heavenly Ranking, but she is nothing to the Mad Dragon guild. Hmph hmph, we should send her an invitation letter and ask her to become our 'mistress of the fort' after we've gotten a Hero's Token and built a guild, hahaha!”
……
I laughed inwardly. Fools, if you want Lin Yixin to become the ”mistress of the fort” you should at least be stronger than her. There is no way someone as compet.i.tive as her would submit to weaklings.
Anyway, it was time to act!
Swhoos.h.!.+
I burst out of the ground and returned to human form. Then, I plunged my blade into the nearest mage's chest!
558!
It was a one-shot! I turned around and attacked another mage, dealing 490 damage this time. He also died in one attack.
It was incredibly MP-consuming to cast consecutive spells on a boss, so these mages didn't even turn on their Magic s.h.i.+elds in order to conserve MP. They were just asking to be killed.
Not wasting even a single moment, I opened my palm and summoned the Dark Wasp with a flash of hexagram magic formation. It stung a Level 41 archer three times consecutively with Flurry, the poor guy joining his friends in the afterlife.
Now, the only ones left around me were a Level 42 archer, a Level 43 mage, and 5 bards. But since Bard was a support cla.s.s with zero offensive skills, I just ignored them entirely.
”How… how did you come here?” the Level 43 mage exclaimed in shock as he stomped the ground, surrounding himself in a magical s.h.i.+eld. At the same time, he fired Fire Dragon Spell at me.
289!
d.a.m.n, so powerful!
I clenched my teeth and forced my way through the flames. The Weeping Fire Blade started glowing red like it was a black reaper that would devour all lives.
The Mage ran and looked back at me with a sneer. ”My Magic s.h.i.+eld is Rank 4, there's no way you can break through it. Just stand there and await your death!”
But I was faster than he was thanks to the 0.5% movement speed boost of my Stormy War Boots. I caught up to him in the next moment and cut him twice with lightning speed!
MISS!
1279!
Pardon tore through his Rank 4 Magic s.h.i.+eld like nothing. The mage was utterly speechless as my blade sank into his chest!
Pop!
The dead mage dropped a s.h.i.+ny ring that I picked up before charging the Level 42 archer. He was currently being chased by the Dark Wasp, and he had less than half HP left. The archer wanted to kite my pet, but he quickly discovered that it was way faster than he was. It could've been the other way around had I given it the command.
I rushed toward him and checked out the light purple bow he was wielding. I sneered and raised my blade.
Crack!
I zigzagged toward my opponent and stood in the way of his retreat. The archer practically ran himself into my Weeping Fire Blade before slumping to the ground, dead!
Pop!
A bunch of Magic Consumables, pots and a piece of equipment appeared. The item had a faint purple glow. Seriously? The bow really dropped? h.e.l.l yeah, what dogs.h.i.+t luck! I'm rich!
I grabbed the bow and only the bow. Leaving the pots and Magic Consumables behind, I leaped between the trees and dodged a rain of arrows. I still got hit here and there, but it was nowhere close enough to put me in danger.
The Earth Escape skill finished its cooldown, so I slipped into the ground once more. Operation success!
At 10% movement speed, I moved even deeper into enemy formation instead of backing away as they might have expected me too. It would at least confuse them for a moment.
