Chapter 549 (2/2)
A beam of sword energy shot through our ranks. Blue Sky Scar had launched his attack and it had been shot off from an extremely sublime angle. His line attack hit both High Fighting Spirits and Eighteen Steeds of You and Yun, dropping High Fighting Spirits' health dangerously low once more. However, Moon Dew was ready with a Greater Heal, so he managed to survive once more. At this point, all of Candle Dragon's attacks seemed to be focused on High Fighting Spirits.
“Get rid of the Berserker! The axe in his hand is an Outstanding Invincible axe! Make sure he drops it!” Candlelight Shadow roared.
Several of the core fighters of Candle Dragon immediately turned their blades toward High Fighting Spirits.
I flew forward and used Thousand Ice Slash, freezing more than a dozen Candle Dragon fighters in their tracks. I roared back, ”f.u.c.k your moms! Anyone who wants to touch a hair on his head can come try me!”
I brandished my sword as I moved to High Fighting Spirits' side. Given my temper, skill, and reaction speed, no one could even dream of killing our Berserker while I was by his side. If not, my t.i.tle as the vice leader would be meaningless.
Candlelight Shadow flew into a rage as he leapt forward and thrust his sword out. A cone of blazing energy started spiraling around his blade mid-thrust. Barrier Break!
My eyes widened in shock as I hurriedly moved my sword to parry his strike. However, I saw a trace of satisfaction flash through Candlelight Shadow's eyes when I lifted my sword to defend myself. Just as I crossed paths with him, Candlelight Shadow suddenly pivoted at lightning speed as he used the helix maneuver to curve around me. I had never imagined that he would dare to pull off such a mechanically difficult move in the midst of this crowded battlefield, so I had been caught completely off-guard. He had actually managed to shake me off!
Whoos.h.!.+
Candlelight Shadow's sword drove straight toward High Fighting Spirits' chest. But High Fighting Spirits was at full health now and he raised his battle axe to defend himself. A huge damage number popped up above his head as the sword collided into the axe, but he managed to just barely survive!
20981!
That had nearly taken off all of his health with one strike and Candlelight Shadow only needed one scratch to finish him off.
It was at this moment that a delicate figure suddenly swooped in from the side and crashed into High Fighting Spirits. The sword in her hand trembled as it shot out at full speed. This girl had actually managed to strike Candlelight Shadow in the chest with a Barrier Break!
17892!
Candlelight Shadow's eyes widened in shock when he stared at the pretty girl in front of him. He could scarcely believe what had just happened. This was precisely our Chaos Moon, and she was currently decked out in a full set of Bone Scythe armor, so a single blow from her had shaved off most of Candlelight Shadow's life. This was something Candlelight Shadow never dreamed could happen. After all, he was decked out in a full set of high-Defense items.
……
”Candlelight Shadow, watch out!” G.o.d's Dance yelled in a loud and frightened voice.
Candlelight Shadow went pale but he immediately unleashed Earth Shattering Slash. The fan-shaped attack struck everyone in front of him and he took this opportunity to swiftly retreat. He yelled, ”Comrades, give up on the boss! Everyone who is strong enough, enter my party! We're heading to the B9 floor!”
Even as he spoke, Candlelight Shadow raised his hand, and the image of a ghost G.o.d appeared above his sword. It let out a terrifying screech which reverberated in the air and the Ghost G.o.d Prophecy debuff appeared over Chaos Moon's head in the very next instant. Unfortunately for her, she had been the closest to Candlelight Shadow, so she had also just been in the range of his skill.
……
I charged forward and killed off a few straggling Candle Dragon players, but I couldn't stop them from withdrawing in good fas.h.i.+on. In the next moment, Blue Sky Scar, Tempest Shadow, Transient Smoke and Clouds, and G.o.d's Dance all joined the Candlelight Shadow's party and he immediately used the scroll to teleport to the B9 floor. Thus, his party became the first party to reach the ninth floor.
A bunch of Ancient Sword Dreaming Souls players were simply standing there and staring at Chaos Moon. As they looked at the Ghost G.o.d Prophecy debuff above her head, they exchanged glances helplessly.
He Yi asked, ”Shall we go and take down the boss as well?”
I stared into the distance and saw that Warsky Alliance, Snowy Cathaya, and Purple Lily were furiously fighting over this boss. Their casualties were extremely heavy and this Great Earth Wind Dragon wasn't just any simple boss itself.
”Forget it, we don't have much strength left. Let's split ourselves into three parties and head to the B9 floor. Remember, the last boss is our real target.”
”Yeah.”
……
”Then what about me?” Chaos Moon shot both He Yi and I puppy eyes before she turned to look at the timer above her head. She wailed unhappily, ”I'm really gonna die this time…”
I nodded my head. ”Yeah, it's for real this time. Do you have any last words?”
Chaos Moon blinked before she nodded her head and replied, ”Yeah, I have one request…”
”What request?” He Yi asked. ”As long as it's within my ability, I'll do everything I can to fulfill it!”
”Really?” Chaos Moon's eyes turned starry.
He Yi nodded her head a.s.sertively. 'Of course!”
”Okay…” Chaos Moon glanced at me before saying, ”Ask Lu Chen to hug me…”
I spat out, ”f.u.c.k! I knew it wouldn't be anything proper…”
He Yi couldn't help but laugh. ”Oh, Chaos Moon, you! This girl is really way too wild… But Lu Chen, you should hurry up and fulfill her request. We need to go down to the ninth floor as soon as possible! Time is of the essence!”
”Yeah.”
I walked forward and stretched out my arms to hug Chaos Moon. She giggled and her face instantly turned as red as a tomato. She teased Pure Love by saying, ”So? Are you so jealous that you're going to die? Hahaha!”
Pure Love sulked and said, ”I also want to…”
I cut her off, ”What do you mean 'I also want to'. Forget it! Let's go to the B9 floor!”
I let go of Chaos Moon and gave her a piece of sound advice. ”You should go back to the city and put your equipment and everything in your inventory into your warehouse. If you do that, you won't drop any items even if you die in the city…”
Chaos Moon's face went even redder as she exclaimed, ”No way! I don't wanna be naked…”
”Then have fun losing your equipment!”
”Fine, fine! I'll just go naked then! It was gonna happen sooner or later…”
