Chapter 662: Death and Breakthrough
In front of the abandoned ruin door, Chairman Jiao quickly activated his energy s.h.i.+eld. However, before two seconds elapsed, the machine gun bullets had turned him into Swiss cheese. He fell and cursed as the white light of death engulfed his body, “September Guild, I will f*ck your entire family…”
Besides Chairman Jiao was the body of Little Witch, whose s.h.i.+eld was broken a little bit earlier. Just like Little Snow, she had a gaping bullet hole right between her eyes.
Even though the players of the Nightless Club squad were equipped with decent gears, they were not able to hold out for long against the September Guild’s ambus.h.!.+
In just five seconds, most of the players were already down!
Even Mu Zi, who had reacted extremely quickly and rolled sideways to dodge attacks just like Feng Luo, was blocked by a ring-shaped ice wall. After that, a bunch of earth spikes emerged from the ground, and a flurry of ice arrows flew and punctured his body, killing him on the spot!
The only people left alive were Feng Luo and Rose Thorns!
Feng Luo had survived because after he dodged the first round of focus fire, a red layer of armor, which was like a mist of blood, covered his body and helped him block a few unavoidable areas of effect attacks thrown by the September Guild players.
At the same time, a series of green healing numbers also kept popping up above his head!
The blood armor and the fully activated self-healing Force made it possible for him to survive even though he was the number one target of the September Guild!
Regardless, he knew that he should not face this group alone with no backup. This group was filled with more than ten players who had pre-planned an entire ambush.
Even though he had awakened the Force and had just awakened the Psionic Energy, it was impossible for him to win against all of these players!
Therefore, he could only do one thing.
Escape!
After Rose Thorns used her remaining HP to block the enemy’s machine gun bullets, two Light Armor Warriors charged toward him. He had to escape now!
Feng Luo looked down without any expression on his face.
After the eight barrelled machine gun emptied Rose Thorns’ remaining HP, it turned to attack him next. Feng Luo’s entire body, like a freshly fired cannonball, charged towards a very steep slope, which was around ten meters tall, besides the entrance of the abandoned ruin.
He moved quickly away from the enemies and toward the slope in hopes of escaping this deadly ambush.
“Raging Charge!”
This was the first time since the Silvermoon City mission that Feng Luo fully activated the Raging Charge skill.
His Agility stat, which was higher than that of an average player, had increased to the maximum level. Due to the 300% movement speed bonus from Raging Charge, he was hard to see and detect.
The September Guild players were already left in a state of shock when they had first seen the blood-red “energy s.h.i.+eld” suddenly appear and cover Feng Luo’s body. Now, his speed was so fast that the machine gunners and two of the Light Armor Warriors looked confused and frightful. They felt as if they had just seen a ghost.
Only September Night Rain, even though he was surprised by Feng Luo’s quick defense, was still smirking coldly with dark eyes!
The distance between Feng Luo and the steep slope beside the abandoned ruin entrance was less than 30 meters. For Feng Luo, who was moving at his maximum speed, this was a distance that he could cover in just one second.
However, at that moment, Feng Luo was filled with another feeling.
The air around the area ten meters in front of the steep slope suddenly had a “heavy” feeling around it!
It was a similar feeling to when Feng Luo had felt the fire energy condensing in the sky above him earlier.
“Boom!”
Just as Feng Luo had that strange feeling, the area in front of the steep slope changed as an Earth Energy Wall appeared in an instant and completely blocked off his path.
The location where the Earth Wall appeared was amazingly well-timed and well-placed!
Since he had been running at maximum speed with the desire and need to run up the slope and away from this dangerous situation, he had not antic.i.p.ated that an obstacle like an Earth Wall would block his way. He was unsure if his body would be able to react to the sudden appearance of the wall in front of him.
Due to his speed, it seemed impossible to stop his legs from running towards the obstacle in time!
Technically, at such a speed, anyone would crush their heads from the collision with the wall.
“Feng Zhi Luo Ye, you cannot escape!”
A hint of smugness could be seen in September Night Rain’s gaze for a brief moment.
At that moment, he had pointed the energy converter that was in his hands toward Feng Luo’s back.
“Whoosh, whoosh, whoos.h.!.+”
A bunch of translucent light-green wind blades that were rotating at high-speed flew out of the energy converter and shot at Feng Luo’s back like a speedy tornado. This was the Wind Manipulator’s Level 45 skill called Spiral Wind Blade!
If Feng Luo slammed into the energy wall, he would definitely not be able to avoid the incoming high-level wind blades.
The combination of his attack type talent and the almost complete Legendary Grade energy converter would absolutely take out half of Feng Luo’s HP with one hit. It would not matter that Feng Luo had an HP that was over 10,000.
A Machine Gunner, two Scouts, three Snipers, and four Manipulators were prepared to deal with the remaining half of his HP. There were also the two Light Armor Warriors who had already charged on ahead after him!
How could one mere Sniper survive this much attack coming from several different players?
September Night Rain’s cold and hateful stare had gradually changed into a smirk. He was beginning to feel satisfaction at the thought of Feng Luo’s demise.
However, a shout that had come from the Earth Manipulator behind him had snapped September Night Rain out of his satisfying thoughts before he could fully indulge in them.
“What?!”
Feng Luo, who was still moving at high-speed, had leaped into the air just before he could slam into the Earth Energy Wall. With Wings of Death in his hands, he avoided the two-meter tall obstacle with a single leap!
The advantage of a super high Agility stat was not only high movement speed. He had quicker reactions as well.
Although the jumping ability was still weaker than a Light Armor Warrior’s Thunder Leap Slash, with the momentum generated from the Charge, jumping over this two-meter tall wall was not a problem at all!
“I don’t understand. How did he avoid slamming into the wall in this situation? How did he manage to leap into the air a few meters ahead of the obstacle?! It’s as if he had predicted the energy wall’s position!”
“That is impossible!” yelled the Earth Energy Manipulator in disbelief.
September Night Rain, and the manipulators and gunners behind him, grimaced.
Feng Luo’s leap over the wall was something that they had not antic.i.p.ated. They had expected that he would slam into the obstacle that they had placed for him. Instead, he had done something completely different from their plan.
Therefore, the Spiral Wind Blade, machine and submachine gun bullets, and searing flames had only hit the Earth Energy Wall.
The wall was destroyed and collapsed after absorbing many attacks from the September Guild.
More importantly, Feng Luo, who had leaped over the Earth Energy Wall, had already climbed up the high slope in just a few tenths of a second. He had prepared to run into the forest up ahead in the high ground.
“You were able to dodge even this?! Feng Zhi Luo Ye, it looks like I still underestimated you! But do you really think you’ll be able to survive?!” September Night Rain grimaced and said, “It won’t be so easy to escape your fate.”
On top of the slope, just a few steps before Feng Luo could enter the forest, a loud voice shouted!
“Stay!”
On the ground, a Light Armor Warrior from the September Guild tore off the camouflage leaves covering his body. He held a silver alloy sword with both hands and descended upon Feng Luo with a Thunder Leap Slas.h.!.+
He sounded excited and agitated as he hurled forward. His face had a delighted expression as if he had just received a free meal!
