Chapter 994: Chase Not The Cornered Enemy (1/2)
Beep!
Suddenly, I received a message from Gui Guzi: ”Boss Broken Halberd, your coordinates!”
As I was launching Burning Blade Slash, the Nine Heavens Li Fire Bracelet triggered and injected blood-red Li flames into the sword auras. As a result, the skill easily shredded the strongest section of Sun-shooting Bow’s shield formation like paper. Players screamed in pain and death as equipment, potions and blood spilled all over the place.
During a brief moment of respite due to ensuing chaos, I hurriedly replied to Gui Guzi, ”Floating Ice City (11199, 8772) come ASAP!”
”Got it, just hold on a bit longer!”
……
At the front, Sun-shooting Bow watched me murderously while commanding almost ten thousand Tail Feather Palace guild members to surround me from both sides. He shouted angrily, ”First corps, move to the back so he can’t slip out of our encirclement! Pooh! WEL MVP or not, I’m killing you today!”
The ground shook with the rumbling of horse hooves, and at least a thousand mounted players moved to my back before I could do anything. It put a lot of pressure on me alright. The chances that I could avoid this many Trapping Nets was almost zero, not to mention that the surviving archers and mages were still firing Galaxy Storms and Shock Arrows at me. It was a most deadly combo.
Bang bang bang...
I fired another 3 golden seals while retreating. I had spent over 50 Divine Energy Points to unleash the Ancient Seals and maintain Great Earth Transformation alone. It was wasteful, but it was also the only way. I wouldn’t have survived if my resistances weren’t buffed by Great Earth Transformation.
I charged left and right, killing many with each swipe of my sword. The Phantom Wolf King followed me like a shadow and left many Purgatory Storms in its wake.
”Stop him! Stop him!”
Sun-shooting Bow roared angrily, ”First corps cavalry, catch him with organized Charges and Trapping Nets! Broken Halberd Sinks Into Sand mustn’t be allowed to leave alive no matter what!”
I glanced at the valley again, and finally I noted that all the girls of Twelve Musicians had logged out. It was time to finally break out of this encirclement. Tail Feather Palace was a famous guild in the Japan server, and the core of their forces were all here. There was no need for me to fight them all by myself.
Chiang chiang chiang...
The enemy shield formation was reformed, and this time, it was four layers thick. Tsk tsk, they think too highly of me.
I smiled a bit and said, ”Here I come!”
I spurred the Armored Ice Qilin Horse toward the shield formation at high speed. The sky was raining with Trapping Nets. I couldn’t afford to be trapped even once, so I kept changing my speed and direction so that the enemy could never really predict my path. It was the only way to dodge all these Trapping Nets.
The gray nets kept missing me and landing harmlessly on the ground. Like a needle weaving through a fabric, I slipped through the tiny gaps between the Trapping Nets again and again until finally, I saw that a small section to the right side of the shield formation was only three layers thick. That’s my way out! I checked the distance and, yeah, it was enough!
Thunderous Charge, go!
Swhoosh!
I slammed into the enemy’s shields with a bang and swung my sword with lightning speed. Burning Blade Slash + Thousand Ice Slash!
Boom boom boom!
Unfortunately, all of the magic knights were Guarding, so they actually survived my double-skill combo with 5 to 25% HP left. Moreover, the priests at the back were healing them with AoE heals. They could be out of one-shot range any moment now.
So I raised my left palm and blasted the ground in front of me with two golden seals. To my pleasant surprise, the Purple Ying Sword property triggered and caused the Ancient Seal to deal 5 times more damage than normal. The result was positively o.b.s.c.e.n.e—
147288!
762360!
718295!
……
At least 30% of the players took 5 times more damage than normal and were one-shot without question. This wouldn’t have been enough to shred their defense line completely, but the Purple Ying Sword also had a 50% splash effect. Even at 2.5 times more damage than normal, it was still more than enough to wipe out an entire field of Purple Gr.a.p.e City players.
”My god…”
