Chapter 430: Gui Guzi Showing Off (2/2)
Damn it, he was actually able to instagib three people at the same time!
My mouth had dropped open in stunned silence as I witnessed his incredible display of skill. According to my previous understanding, when players mounted up, it was possible for single-target skills to become AoE skills. These transformed skills could hit anywhere from three to five targets at most, but as long as the enemies were clumped together, it would be much easier to kill them. At the same time, the effects and damage of AoE skills would be strengthened; the attack radius of the skills would be widened at bare minimum.
“Little Gui, don’t go and get yourself instantly killed…” I warned Gui Guzi as I killed the warrior who was leading the line against us with a single stroke of my sword.
Gui Guzi guffawed loudly as he said, “Don’t worry boss! Right now, my HP has risen past 20000 and my Defense exceeds 4000. The likes of these players won’t be able to kill me instantly!”
After he said those words, he proved them with his actions. He advanced forward, his spear ducking and weaving in the air and it seemed as if he and his mount had entered a realm that no one could reach.
Fuck, he looks far cooler than a lowly foot soldier like me!
Even Dominating Heaven Blade couldn’t deal with Gui Guzi. Gui Guzi dodged two Charges and the attacks of archers were practically a joke to him. Those arrows made a tinkling sound as they rained down on Gui Guzi’s shield and they couldn’t even deal 100 damage. In fact, Gui Guzi was even able to ignore the attacks of mages now!
Nice! Just how many stat points had this Armored Swordback Dragon added to Gui Guzi? His power had jumped through the roof and he could even ignore the attacks of the core elites of Gods of Destruction as he charged towards them. The sharp claws of the Armored Swordback Dragon pounded against the ground, making it seem as if the whole world was trembling. Gui Guzi had seemingly entered a realm of prowess above everyone else as his spear tore through the crowd of players.
Gods of Destruction were scattered in the next instant!
Dominating Heaven Blade raised his sharp sword in the air, his eyes burning with jealousy and rage. He was probably thinking that Dominating Knight God wouldn’t be that much inferior to Gui Guzi if he had managed to obtain the Armored Swordback Dragon.
Too bad for him, history was always written by the victors and now that their plan to steal this Rare mount had fallen through, they had no choice but to reap the whirlwind!
“Brothers, retreat! We’ll get revenge another day!”
Dominating Heaven Blade retreated into the woods in shame, seven or eight stragglers running after him.
Actually, there was a simple reason for their miserable defeat this time around and that was my Martial God skill and my Tactics stat. Gui Guzi’s attack had been bolstered by 87%, so how in the heavens were these players supposed to defend themselves against him?
Gui Guzi asked in the party channel, “Boss, what should we do? Do we go after them or not?”
I laughed before replying, “Little Gui, show me the speed of your Armored Swordback Dragon. We’re not letting a single one of them go! Let’s kill them all!”
“Alright!”
……
Gui Guzi urged his mount forward as he rushed to chase after them, swift as the wind.
Darn it, magic knights and wanderers who possessed mounts were really too damn powerful!
Crack!
Gui Guzi’s spear penetrated Dominating Heaven Blade’s back as he lifted the body of the guild leader of Gods of Destruction into the air. Light exploded from his weapon as he fired off Death Combo, instantly killing off Dominating Heaven Blade. A pair of armored boots dropped from his corpse but Gui Guzi had already moved onto his next victim. He swiftly slew them one after the other, and all of the survivors died underneath his spear before they could even make any evasive maneuvers.
In less than three minutes, Gui Guzi caused the entire area to be littered by the bodies of the players from Gods of Destruction. They had no choice but to accept the bitter reality of their defeat. Once Gui Guzi obtained that mount, the power that he displayed on the battlefield wasn’t something that they could hope to contend against.
……
After Gui Guzi made his victorious return, he leapt off the Armored Swordback Dragon and laughed. “Boss, this mount is really useful. Damn, this feels way too good! The additional stats it gives me are only slightly less than He Yi’s Snow Domain Windchaser. Thank you so much! If you hadn’t given me these coordinates, I might not have been able to find a mount as good as this even a month later.”
A smile curved up on my face and I took out the Knight’s Lava Legguards from my inventory and passed them to him.
I chuckled as I replied, “Heh. Wear this piece of equipment. You need to prepare yourself. Eve’s equipment and mount are both extremely outstanding and she is swiftly improving in terms of strategy and mechanics. You’re the best magic knight of the Bloody Mercenaries, so you definitely can’t lose to our guild leader. Do your best!”
“Okay, I’ll definitely fight for the glory of the Bloody Mercenaries!”
A grin split across Gui Guzi’s face as he said, “Speaking of which boss, how goes your progress with our guild leader? The beautiful Lin Yixin of Snowy Cathaya also seems to be interested in you. What are you going to do? Have you thought of how you’re going to proceed from here on out? Who is going to be the official wife and who is going to be the concubine? Both women are peerless beauties so it’d be quite a pity if one of them really did become the concubine…”
I glared at him and said, “When did you become so gossipy? Has Mamate corrupted both your eyes and ears? What the hell has this got to do with you?”
“Haha, I’m just asking on Mamate’s behalf. He’s super anxious about this…”
“Fuck, just as expected. Okay, that's enough, stop gossiping. Even I’m not quite sure about what’s going on between Eve and I. All I can say is that I’m having a good time right now, and that’s good enough, isn’t it?”
“Aye!” Gui Guzi gave a sharp nod of his head.
After that, he smiled and said, “I have to heartily second the point you just made. Ever since I left Wuxi for Suzhou, I’ve had a ball of a time with both the Bloody Mercenaries and Ancient Sword Dreaming Souls. This is really what you call living the life, am I right?”
“You know too much. I’m going to return to town, what are you going to do? Are you going to level here or?”
“I’m going back to town too. I’m gonna show Brother B and Xu Yang just how powerful the ultimate knight can be…”
“WTF, how is someone of your standard considered an ultimate knight…”
……
I took out a return scroll and teleported back to the city!
