Chapter 608: Spiritual Protection (2/2)
“What?! Lu Chen is not dead yet?” Galaxy Breaker Mage and Bloodthirsty Battle Monarch both gasped in shock simultaneously.
I positioned my attacks and managed to corner Galaxy Breaker Mage, leaving him with no escape routes. He was in desperate straits and all he could do was wait for death.
Li Chengfeng activated Dragon Defense Armor as a ring of light started to circle around him. He retreated swiftly while laughing in a loud voice, “Lu Chen, go on and kill that asshole!”
I pressed my sword against the enemy’s Origin Energy Shield with Universe Break still activated. Ignoring the Origin Energy Shield’s defense, it penetrated through the shield and was about to stab Galaxy Breaker Mage in the heart.
However, at this exact moment, a high-level magic knight in a navy blue armor charged and growled angrily at me. “Trying to kill Galaxy Breaker Mage? Dream on! Spiritual Protection!”
Whoosh!
The magic knight stretched out his palm and fired a blue ball of light which enveloped Galaxy Breaker Mage. However, my Universe Break had still successfully penetrated through the mage’s chest!
Splurt! My blade was drenched in blood instantly but the HP bar of Galaxy Breaker Mage had not gone down in the slightest. Instead, the magic knight who fired that ball of light trembled as a damage number flew up from his head!
13902!
“What’s going on?”
I rushed to look at the combat log and was stupefied by what I saw.
Combat Log: Player Dark Guardian Angel used Spiritual Protection. The player has absorbed the damage done to Galaxy Breaker Mage and will only suffer half of the damage. Player Dark Guardian Angel has taken 13902 damage!
……
The hell, Spiritual Protection? What an OP skill! That magic knight, Dark Guardian Angel really was a guardian angel to Galaxy Breaker Mage. Dammit, he has at least 70000 HP when boosted by buffs! It’s literally impossible to kill this tank!
Pchhht! Pchhht! Pchhht!
In an instant, Devil Piercing Arrow, Spiralling Arrow Blade, Galaxy storm rained down on me continuously. As my health started to drop drastically, I drowned a health potion immediately and retreated together with Li Chengfeng. It was impossible for me to solo this bunch. Galaxy Breaker Mage’s magic attacks were too powerful, a single Galaxy Storm cast by him would deal 8k damage to me! If he had used Ice Arrow Spell to freeze me instead, I would’ve lost my life then and there!
Fortunately, Gui Guzi, Heaven’s Rain, and the others had returned for us. Under the protection of the Cyan Tiger Cavalry, Li Chengfeng and I barely managed to escape. Our assassination attempt had failed miserably as we were greatly outnumbered.
It seemed as if Bloodthirsty Battle Monarch was not in a rush to get rid of us. He didn’t do anything more than lead a group of riders to guard Wing Breaker as he prepared to break the doors down. Galaxy Breaker Mage spun his staff in his hands as he emotionlessly gazed at the city before him. He was clearly the Hall of Immortality’s trump card while the magic knight, Dark Guardian Angel, was most probably his pocket guardian.
This ‘cycle’ could be used to our advantage. Dark Guardian Angel used Spiritual Protection to protect Galaxy Breaker Mage and was healed by the priests. Under the protection of Origin Energy Shield, it was almost impossible to kill Galaxy Breaker Mage. To break this ‘cycle’, first we had to go for their priests, then Dark Guardian Angel, thirdly Galaxy Breaker Mage, and finally Wing Breaker. Only then would we be able to successfully guard our city.
“Dammit! We have to kill Galaxy Breaker Mage!” Li Chengfeng gripped his sword tightly and glared at Galaxy Breaker Mage in the distance.
He was clearly unnerved by the opponent. But in all honesty, all of us could no longer remain calm at this current stage of the battle. I carried my Cyan Netherworld Sword on my shoulder and turned to shout, “Beiming, come down here! Let’s work together to kill that guy again, Galaxy Breaker Mage has to die! Everyone, disperse yourselves and only attack when the enemy is 25 yards away from the city gates. Kill the magic knight, Dark Guardian Angel, first before eliminating Galaxy Breaker Mage. Dammit all! We have to protect the city!”
Understood!”
Beiming Xue led a few of her strongest archers and gracefully leaped off the arrowtower. Landing on top of the city walls, they ran along it and positioned themselves behind me.
……
Everyone held their breaths and waited patiently. Under the disguise of our ranged attacks, they continued to maintain their advancing speed.
At long last, they have arrived!
“They are within 25 yards! Attack now! Be careful of Galaxy Breaker Mage’s spells!”
I leaped forward swiftly and stealthily made my way to the enemy’s lines. I jumped out of hiding when I saw an opportune moment and unleashed Thousand Ice Slash on a group of enemies. Lady luck must’ve been on my side as Dark Guardian Angel had been frozen by the Thousand Ice Slash. Immediately, I waved my hand and executed God Binding Art!
Swoosh!
God Binding Art took effect and Dark Guardian Angel was trapped in the middle of four divine weapons. Dopamine coursed through my veins when I saw that he could not move an inch!
“Go in, use Barrier Break and retreat immediately!”
High Fighting Spirits, Xu Yang, Du Thirteen, and the rest activated Charge at my command. With a wave of their swords, they activated Barrier Break and unleashed spirals of swirling energy from the tips of their swords. Without even firing a second shot, they retreated immediately after using Barrier Break.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Galaxy Breaker Mage grew anxious as he waved his staff, activating Iceflame Drill. It smashed against the city walls as an entire row of players perched on it collapsed. Beiming Xue on the other hand was running back and forth quickly like a pretty little bunny, successfully dodging the attacks. While dodging the incoming attacks, she continued to unleash Mountain Stagger Arrows upon Bloodthirsty Battle Monarch.
In the blink of an eye, Dark Guardian Angel was left with just a sliver of his HP!
Our chance has come!
I swung my sword and it trembled as I activated Universe Break!
