Chapter 81 – Fire Cloud King (2/2)

Everyone could tell just how terrible their guild master’s mood was, so they immediately stopped speaking.

“Hah! Icy Blizzard!” SnowPhoenix called out. The silvery white staff in her hands danced as she casted another Icy Blizzard, causing ice and snow to fall onto the Fire Cloud King and dealt significant damage.

“This skill is pretty good, but the cooldown is too long and uses up too much mana. Otherwise, SnowPhoenix would be able to deal with it herself,” XuanYuanSword muttered to himself.

“Mirage Chain Shot,” DreamButterfly did not hold back either. She pulled back the bowstring of her gold bow with her fingers and released it nine times. Although no arrows shot out, the Fire Cloud King trembled as nine decent damage numbers rose up above its head.

Hidden classes are truly powerful. All of the Myriad Swords members were surprised. So they managed to reach the top 20s of their class’s rankings because of the more powerful hidden class skills.

The Fire Cloud King’s body was like a fiery red cloud. When it spread out fully, it could reach several dozen meters wide. One could not see any eyes or nose form it, but it did roar angrily with its mouth. Although it already killed most of the Myriad Swords members, it wasn’t in too great of a state, since it has already lost around a third of its health after getting attacked by the hidden class skills.

The Fire Cloud King roared angrily once more, then descended a little. As its body trembled, countless basketball-sized fireballs appeared out of nowhere and rained towards the ground.

”F*ck, this again!?” XuanYuanSword cursed and led his subordinates back. This was Meteor Fire Rain, which was one of the Fire Cloud King’s more powerful skills. When combined with Fire Ocean, it practically unleashed a fiery hell upon the area. It was also the combination of these two skills that had caused most of their losses.

In contrast, the two female players did not seem worried at all. They merely firmly stood in their places.

“Icy Fortress!” SnowPhoenix called out. A transparent fortress made out of ice surrounded SnowPhoenix. A fireball smashed against the fortress and caused a ripple in the wall, causing SnowPhoenix to shake. However, she did endure her way through the entire skill with less than twenty percent of her health remaining.

Meanwhile, DreamButterfly handled it in a simpler manner. She bent her knee, knotted arrows on her bow, then sent countless arrows flying into the Meteor Fire Rain.

“Piercing Arrows!” DreamButterfly used her attack as her defense and made a clearing for herself. She took a deep breath as Meteor Fire Rain fell beside her, then pulled her bow back to let out another shot. However, this time, it was merely a normal Explosive Shot.

“Amazing!” Fatty was dumbstruck. DreamButterfly’s Mirage Chain Shot and Piercing Arrows as well as SnowPhoenix’s Icy Blizzard and Icy Fortress were incomparably strong to most of the other players’ skills. He really couldn’t help but accept the fact that they possessed the strength needed to be acknowledged as real experts with their usage and timings.

“Yes!” XuanYuanSword was overjoyed when he saw the two finally reveal what they are capable of. He had immediately begun to ponder how to convince the two players to join his guild after seeing their trump cards. Right now, Myriad Swords was in a strange state. All of their experts were close combat players, so they could do nothing while ranged attacks fought flying monsters like the Fire Cloud King. If he could get the two female experts to join the guild, it will definitely give them a chance to become the eighth ranking guild in Vermillion Bird City.

“Guild Master, the God Familia killed the Fire Demon!” a player shouted out. This was a player responsible for contacting the player watching over the God Familia.

“Did a Guild Establishment Token drop?” XuanYuanSword’s expression drastically changed as he asked.

“They don’t know,” the player quickly replied. “The God Familia only just killed the Fire Demon when a lot of people surrounded them. There’s a huge ruckus going on right now, nobody knows what the Fire Demon dropped.”

“Ahh!” Just as XuanYuanSword listened on, he suddenly heard a scream.

XuanYuanSword looked over and saw SnowPhoenix stagger back with an urgent look on her face. Her health was dropping at a terrifying speed.

XuanYuanSword: Myriad Swords, allow me to introduce DreamButterfly and SnowPhoenix, the two experts who will help us down this boss monster today! Please give them a round of applause.

(utter silence)

DragonSword: What the heck, why the hell are we hiring people to do it when we have so many people here?

YinYangSword: I don't want to agree with DragonSword, but he's right. Did we bring so many people here for... naught? Guild Master, are you kidding me?

XuanYuanSword: Shut it. Our guild members are here to protect us and divert attention. The real boss killing will be done by the two experts. This will be able to minimize our losses.

YinYangSword: ...

DragonSword: Whatever, f*ck it. I don't give a shit about this. Just let me kill those bastards already!
