Chapter 609: A Costly Lesson (2/2)
……
After Li Chengfeng had cleared a path for me, I rushed forward unobstructed. Hell, I could even see Wing Breaker’s back now! I swiftly locked onto the werebeast and activated Thunderous Charge!
Whoosh!
I streaked forward like a bolt of lightning as my Thunderous Charge carried me toward Wing Breaker. Having already sensed my attack, he hurriedly spun around and braced his shield in front of him as he activated his Holy Shield skill!
Thud!
MISS!
Holy Shield was a defensive skill that protected the user against both physical and magic attacks! This Wing Breaker was rather clever. He’d actually used Holy Shield to avoid being stunned by my Thunderous Charge.
However, that wouldn’t be enough to save him!
A spiral of energy appeared around the Cyan Netherworld Sword as an Eight Trigrams formation appeared beneath my feet. Before the destruction warrior could even react, my sword was already flying toward his chest! Universe Break!
Wing Breaker’s eyes went flat and cold but he kept his Holy Shield up. Flames erupted from his warhammer as he swung it toward me even as my blade shot toward him.
Pu!
29079!
A huge damage number popped up over his head. Taking that blow with Holy Shield had caused him to receive even more damage, but Wing Breaker was well aware of how fast I was. He knew that my Burning Blade Slash was even deadlier than my Universe Break, so he would definitely die if he didn’t defend against it. As the warhammer fiercely smashed into my left shoulder, I instantly experienced the power of a werebeast who could add 7 points to Strength with every level.
13002!
I ignored the damage that he had dealt to me as my sword swept up toward him. How about Crushing Blow!
”What?!” Wing Breaker gasped in shock, quickly canceling his Holy Shield. However, my sword suddenly shifted as I struck with Burning Blade Slash instead. I hadn’t even used Crushing Blow in the first place, I had merely imitated the wind-up of the skill to bait Wing Breaker into canceling his Holy Shield. It looked like the destruction warrior hadn’t had enough PvP experience against peak experts of the game because his fighting style was still very naive! Unfortunately for him, all war was based on deception!
Clang! Clang! Clang!
Sparks flew into the air when my blade cut into the destruction warrior’s breastplate three times, causing three damage numbers to pop up into the air.
9043!
15020!
23401!
Wing Breaker had been taught a valuable lesson with these three hits. Since there weren’t any priests around to heal him, those three consecutive slashes had been enough to finish him. He stared at me dumbly as he slowly collapsed from the back of his warbear. He had even dropped the shield that he had been wielding.
I immediately picked up the shield. Good, an impressive item!
My eyes swiftly swept over it. I had gotten a 5-star Outstanding Spirit-grade shield! Awesome!
The surviving Hall of Immortality players around me were shaken to their core. ”Fucking hell! Wing Breaker was killed by physical attacks! A warrior had actually managed to cut him down with physical attacks! What the hell is this?! Even Blue Sky Scar and Tempest Shadow couldn’t one-shot Wing Breaker, but a single flurry of attacks from Broken Halberd Sinks Into Sand had put him down! Is this the difference in strength between the seventh-ranked CGL Hall of Famer and rankers lower than him?”
I couldn’t help but chuckle. Hah, what difference?! The real difference was the 200% Attack buff from my Martial God skill. As long as this OP skill was active, I would be able to tear through any Defense like a hot knife through butter!
……
Du Thirteen waved his sword in the air. ”Well done, Lu Chen! Li Chengfeng also managed to kill a few of their experts! We should charge forward now and get rid of those annoying Thunder Chariots!”
A squad of Hall of Immortality players had nearly managed to escort that pitch-black Thunder Chariot to our walls. This was a true siege weapon and it would immediately cause a major breach in our defenses if we allowed it to hit our walls or gates.
In the next instant, Xu Yang, Li Chengfeng, and Chaos Moon launched a blitzkrieg assault on the Thunder Chariot with a squad of warriors. Beams of sword energy tore through the players defending the Thunder Chariot as the mages and archers on the walls pelted it with spiraling arrows and fiery blasts of flames. Attacks rained down on the Thunder Chariot without pause and it gave a sudden whine before it exploded.
Thud!
An assassin from Hall of Immortality fell to his knees in despair. As he looked at the ruins of their Thunder Chariot, he said in a disconsolate voice, ”We’re dead. The boss spent hundreds of thousands of dollars on this Thunder Chariot, but we lost it just like that. The boss is gonna skin us alive…”
