Chapter 541 (1/2)
Ye Cang’s rapid-fire had successfully held back most of the worms that were getting bigger and the ambushers. However, the situation was getting out of control. Without a second thought, he used his tactics ability. “Tactics! Rapid Pursuit! Power Attack!”
With the enhancement of speed and damage from the tactics ability, they slowly gained back control of the situation as they could clear the enemies faster. Zhang Zhengxiong and Fang Ci were able to lock down the worm man. Despite the disgusting mouth that was coming at him, Zhang Zhengxiong did not back down. Instead, he swung his hammer madly and hit right into his face with Thunder Strike.
On the other side, Lin Le was slashing the enemies and used his accessory to drop spores as he ran. The spores then sprayed out paralyzing poisonous fog and stunned many of the worms, making Lin Le’s life easier. He cut through them as if he was cutting fruits and vegetables.
As the situation was slowly leaning in their favor, Ye Cang hit the worm man with Light Strike Array while little tadpole jumped on its back and with its tongue, once again pulled Zhang Zhengxiong away, from Ye Cang’s attack range. Fang Ci also summoned Withered Shade and Release of Vengeful Spirit. The worm man screamed in pain as it got hit by a light + fire burst. After swallowing Zhang Zhengxiong, little tadpole then spat him out towards the worm man which was stuck in the fire. With his hammer, Zhang Zhengxiong smashed its head.
Ye Cang jumped backwards and tossed the Lightning Lance right at its heart, paralyzing it. Lin Le, Little Ren, and SpyingBlade quickly dashed towards it and launched their attacks from all directions. Light yellow blood then rushed out from its neck and other body parts.
“Congratulations, you’ve slain Deep Marsh Worm Man! You’ve received 6500 experience.”
As soon as the worm man fell on the ground, the remaining deep marsh ambushers were in a mess and the sucker worms seemed to have their nerves cut and died. SpyingBlade was startled at the large amount of experience they got. Although the creatures were dangerous, the experience in return was also high especially from those worms. However, without the support from the tactics ability and aura, they would not have survived from the worms’ attacks as the situation might have gotten out of hand and the number of worms may have increased. Seeing Ye Cang dashing towards the corpse with top speed, SpyingBlade sighed and quickly formed a wall with FrozenCloud and the others to block his way. It was as if they were playing ‘The Eagle Catches The Chicken’ game, protecting Lin Le.
“Go away! I have a strong feeling that my divine hand will loot a divine artifact!” With his red eyes, Ye Cang was circling them, trying to find a way to loot.
“Your divine hand has never succeeded once…” Wu Na said speechlessly.
“The more I try, the higher the chance of it succeeding!” Ye Cang then used Shadow Step and appeared beside Lin Le. He then reached out his hand. Everyone was astonished. Shit! Originally, OtherShoreWatchingAV did not believe what they said but throughout the journey, he had experienced enough. There were times when the boss had looted a few but he always got nothing. It was just too scary to believe.
Just when Ye Cang reached out his hand, a tongue strangled his hand and pulled him away. It was little tadpole. Wu Na and the others were relieved. Seeing himself getting further from the corpse and Lin Le reaching his hand to loot it, Ye Cang shouted. “My divine artifact!”
“Brother Lil’White, we got an accessory and a shoulder guard! Both of them are dark gold ones!” Ye Cang was shocked upon hearing what Lin Le said. He then turned to smile at little tadpole. The smile caused chills to little tadpole and it immediately let go of him.
“Your reaction was not bad, Lil’Tad. But still, there is space for improvement, you have to get more nutrients…” Ye Cang talked to little tadpole as if a strict teacher was talking to his students. He then took out the grill. Watching Ye Cang pouring out the leftover food, everyone broke out in cold sweat. Especially FrozenCloud, as she saw the wicked smile on Ye Cang’s face and she swallowed.
Ye Cang let go of little tadpole and started to walk around the worm man and the other corpses to harvest them. He took out its heart and then distributed the equipment. The design of the shoulder guard was unique as the coral-polyps-like tentacles were all over it and they were still moving. It was scary.
