Chapter 429: Battle For The Rare Mob (1/2)
How dare they!
Psssh!
I jumped off the tree without any hesitation whatsoever and staggered for a moment before I ran at them. The Skydusk Cloak flapped behind me as I charged over with the Heaven-stealing Sword.
These nine players were all core members of Gods of Destruction. It was obvious that Dominating Heaven Blade brought his party to grind some high-level mobs. Most of the mobs here were Level 137 shadow-rank Hellhounds. This party’s MT might not even be able to block a One-horned Dragon. Dominating Heaven Blade’s Defense definitely didn’t surpass 2000, so meeting one would be a one way ticket to hell.
A few of them also discovered me and turned around. Dominating Archer God’s gaze turned gold. ”Broken Halberd Sinks Into Sand?! Fuck, why are you here?”
I took a step forward and swept my gaze over them. Dominating Heaven Blade, Dominating Knight God, Dominating Archer God, Dominating Mage God, and Dominating Warrior God were all there. There were also two additional priests and mages that had good magic and healing power. No wonder they were able to grind here.
I pointed at the Armored Swordback Dragon and stated, ”I found this Rare first and I’ve been watching over it for more than an hour. Friends from Gods of Destruction, please go look for a new mount to avoid unnecessary conflict.”
Gui Guzi was about to arrive and I didn’t want any accidents to happen. Though I fearlessly challenged nine players alone, I wasn’t completely certain of my victory. My chances of dying were still pretty great if I were to get continuously stunned by Shock Arrow.
Hatred filled Dominating Warrior God’s eyes as he raised his sword and gave me an angry reply, ”On what basis? You think you were here first just because you said so? Did you write your name on it?”
Tak!
I stabbed the Heaven-stealing Sword onto the ground and stood in front of the Armored Swordback Dragon. ”You guys are well aware of who came here first. I’m not going to argue with you. I’m going to just stand right here and if you want to tame this Armored Swordback Dragon, you’ll have it do it over my dead body! Of course, I do hope that you’ll all reconsider your actions!”
Dominating Warrior God was enraged. ”You’re being too overbearing, Lu Chen! Aren’t you being too condescending?!”
I silently looked at him with frosty eyes.
Dominating Heaven Blade chided, ”Warrior God, forget it. Let’s leave. Since Lu Chen found it first, we can find another one. This isn’t even a boss so there must be more than one of these.”
”But boss…”
Dominating Warrior God wanted to say something but was glared mute by Dominating Heaven Blade. He had no choice but to turn around and quietly disappear into the depths of the forest.
……
Dammit. I was alone but it was clear that their guild’s top players were probably having a grind party here. If they had more than 9 people here, I couldn’t hold them off alone. After going through their fourth promotion when they hit Level 100, class signature skills had already been revealed. Archer’s Shock Arrow could stun, Magic Knight’s Charge had double the accuracy, while mage’s Ice Arrow Spell’s slow effect dramatically increased.
I whispered in the party channel, ”Little Gui, hurry it up. Don’t bother killing any random mobs on your way here!”
”What’s wrong?”
”Gods of Destruction's main party is here. Dominating Knight God looks like he wants to tame this land dragon too. I can only guard it for a little while. They’re probably going to send in more people soon.”
”Mn, I’ll be there in ten minutes!”
”Alright, be careful and ready for a fight to break out anytime once you get here!”
”Okay!”
……
Dominating Heaven Blade and his crew appeared yet again just as I closed the chat window. As expected, a dense pack of blue dots were within 100 yards from me. There were at least 30 Gods of Destruction players and they were all fourth-promotion players. Trouble’s here!
”What, have you finally made up your mind?”
I shot a casual smile at Dominating Heaven Blade. I needed to keep calm because panicking would just mean a quicker defeat!
Dominating Heaven Blade lifted his blade and grinned. ”After talking about it with my people, we still decided to take back this dragon. Majority rules, you know, and it seems like we want this mount more than ever!
”Oh? Really?” I said with an indifferent smile.
……
Rustle...
A few footprints appeared on the dead leaves of the forest. There was no doubt that they had a few assassins on their side. Unless they came within 5 yards of me, I couldn’t see them. I could only rely on sensing the environment around me. I couldn’t allow an assassin to get near me. They had Ambush and Gouge, two skills that could inflict a stun status. No matter how good my equipment was, I’d still be in danger since stun chance was more than 10%!
I buffed myself with Martial God and began to move. I raised the Heaven-stealing Sword, aimed it at an angle, and released a vast Thousand Ice Slash!
”Boom!
Sword aura fell from the sky and ice fragments danced in the air. The four assassins were knocked out of stealth and torn to shreds. With my current attack power, I’d bet that there were no less than 10 assassins in this server who could take a full-power blow from me!
Dominating Heaven Blade got angry when he saw this. He charged me with his blade and yelled, ”Attack together! Don’t give him any breathing room, kill him!”
Whoosh!
Charge!
