389 Chapter 389 - A Swathe of Traps (2/2)
Gu Fei could only sigh when this happened. Had it not been for the fact he could not move his foot accordingly, it would have been impossible for this opponent to get away from his slash.
”COCO!” The slash missed its target entirely, but Deep Waters had anxiously yelled out, leaping off the rooftop he had been on this whole time without caring for anything else as he sailed towards where Gu Fei was standing.
Gu Fei immediately stuck his sword out when he saw this, ”Electric Wall, fall!”
”Ah, f*ck me!” Deep Waters cursed in mid air. He originally looked extremely cool leaping off the roof like that, but he had not expected Gu Fei to suddenly erect a wall to block him like that. Deep Waters was instantly caught in that wall, looking like a tiger pouncing upon its prey. Even more unfortunate was how Electric Wall had a sort of absorption effect to it. The wall suspended him in the air in that same pose, looking more like a lizard as the electric current coursed through him, spitting out sparks from time to time.
”Ahhhh! Deep Waters!” That person behind Gu Fei seemed to have ignored Gu Fei at this instant, darting over towards the Electric Wall while looking up at the Deep Waters stuck up in the wall.
”Quick let him down!” that person demanded angrily as she turned towards Gu Fei.
It was at this moment he realized this person was a lady. He instantly realized the relationship between this woman and Deep Waters, but all he did was smile, ”Just wait a while!”
The trap that snared him released at this point, so Gu Fei darted out. That lady wanted to block him from approaching, but Gu Fei easily spun around to pass her as he sprinted towards the Archers.
These men looked as if they had awoken from a trance as they raised their bows to fire. Gu Fei's sword and saber combo was invincible, littering the ground with arrows wherever he ran. Quite a few arrows made it past his guard, for it was difficult for him to flawlessly swat every arrow away even if he was more skilled than he was. Thankfully, Vast Lushness was around to cast her Heals on him and allowed him to survive through the damage. Had he been taking all these men on his own, there was a good chance that he might have already perished under the constant rain of arrows.
”Beware of traps!” Svelte Dancer hurriedly cried out this reminder when she saw how Gu Fei rushed forward without even slowing down. He was about to enter the whole swathe of traps those Hunters had set up; even though Gu Fei had Blink, it only allowed him to cross a five meter distance, which was not enough to materialize right beside these men.
Yet Gu Fei had already clearly seen that. Even though the traps were densely packed, there were still plenty of spaces between them, and when these gaps registered under his eyes, he easily figured out the various paths he could take using the footwork that he was well versed in since his youth. Without any exaggeration, had it not been for the fact that there was elevation on this flight of stairs, Gu Fei would actually have been able to avoid all the traps and make his way through everything with his eyes closed, as long as he successfully took his first step.
Everyone watched as Gu Fei came running towards them without slowing down in the least, taking each step without fail in the gaps between the traps, moving right up to the first Hunter in several steps.
This Hunter was holding his bow in his left hand and arrow in his right at the moment, and had no idea how he could defend himself; so he turned to run. Gu Fei was quick, swiftly tossing out his self-made sky hook on to that man's collar as he tossed the other end of the rope towards Oathless Sword.
Oathless Sword was naturally beside himself when he grabbed a hold of it. Having stood here acting like a live target for these Hunters had nearly bored him to death, but now that he finally had his hands on something to do. With a guttural bellow, he pulled the rope. What little strength that Hunter had was nothing compared to what Oathless Sword possessed. This man was instantly floored with that forceful jerk, and was then inhumanely dragged across the trap laiden ground towards him. Each trap snapped and clamped onto this person's body, ending up at Oathless Sword's feet in a blink of an eye.
Oathless Sword was addicted to this. He reached out to that Hunter and picked him up to toss him right out once more, before giving a good tug on the rope. Unfortunately, that hook that caught onto this man's collar was not secured enough for this sort of rough handling, causing the hook to slip off in that throw as it ended up back in his hand, but without the player. Now that Oathless Sword was left with nothing to play, he tossed the sky hook back to Gu Fei. ”Miles bro, Miles bro, get me another.”
Gu Fei was currently engaged with several of those Hunters at once, so when Oathless Sword threw the hook towards him, he randomly picked one of them and hooked that person's clothes.
”AH!” That person reached out in panic, hoping to remove it, but Oathless Sword had already given it a strong tug, and that man was yanked from where he was standing in an instant.
Gu Fei's Twin Incineration insta-killed two men beside him, before he bolted towards the next target. The number of Archers dropped, and the arrows they fired were no longer that much of a threat to him. Vast Lushness no longer needed to use her Heal to assist him, and was instead using her Mana Sacrifice to provide him a constant stream of mana instead.
Oathless Sword had managed to drag in another player; he had immediately lost control of the previous player when he tossed him out, so he was currently wondering if he should just slay this man on the spot or secure the hook a little bit better when Svelte Dancer cried out, hopping eagerly, ”Toss him over here, toss him to me!”
Oathless Sword did not put too much thought into this, answering heartily with an ”Alright!” as he heaved that man over towards her.
That man crashed and tumbled onto the ground, immediately destroying quite a few traps with his landing. Svelte Dancer stretched her leg out and stopped him. She then adjusted the direction of the man before making him roll out with a powerful kick.
That man cleared out the traps on the ground in his disoriented state. The direction he went tumbling out in caused quite a few of these Hunters to panic, as the man had managed to clear a path for Svelte Dancer to charge in towards them!
