Chapter 1464: Airborne Fight
“Not good, it’s [Self Destruct]! Cthulhu, run!”
Upon seeing the holy light emanating from Fearless’ body, the Orc Warrior exclaimed in shock.
However, before the Orc Warrior could finish his sentence, Fearless had already exploded.
“Boom!”
The explosion rang out as Fearless’ HP bar was emptied out and the Orc a.s.sa.s.sin Cthulhu was blasted into a white ray of light.
“I want your life!”
Upon seeing his own comrade dying under such a shameless trick, the Orc Warrior cried out in rage. He grabbed onto one of the javelins tied to his back and tossed it forcefully towards Fearless.
In the face of the oncoming attack, Fearless calmly encompa.s.sed himself in [Holy Light s.h.i.+eld].
“Duang!”
Fearless’ invincible [Holy Light s.h.i.+eld] easily reflected the javelin away.
Spring Halo and Crotch Lord immediately used this opportunity to activate their cape behind their backs in an attempt to fly off.
Everyone that played games before should know that there was a certain scripted action that was required when summoning mounts and the likes of it. This was the same for summoning the cape. For the duration of the action, the player must not be interrupted at all. Otherwise, the summoning will be halted.
Upon seeing that the two of them were trying to escape, Rockabye, who was situated far away, hurriedly cried out to the Orc Warrior, “Bruce, don’t let them escape.”
Upon receiving the order, the Orc Warrior immediately switched targets. He raised his hands and was about to launch an attack on both Spring Halo and Crotch Lord.
“Trying to run?” Fearless coldly laughed, before a white ray of light emanated from his body once more, causing Bruce’s attention to be instantly redirected towards Fearless.
A Priest’s rare ability – [Sacrifice]!
This was a skill that was similar to that of a Guardian’s [Taunt], and could forcibly direct the opponent’s attacks onto the player.
As Fearless was currently still enveloped in his [Holy Light s.h.i.+eld], Bruce’s attacks naturally didn’t have any effect on him. This move by Fearless had successfully bought enough time for Spring Halo’s duo.
Upon seeing how difficult it was to deal with Fearless, Rockabye began to panic. With a wave of both of his hands, he activated his Gravity Magic.
Under Rockabye’s control, the tiles on the ground of the pavement began to rise into the air one by one, before flying towards Spring Halo and Crotch Lord.
At the sight of this, Spring Halo slammed his staff onto the ground, summoning ten demons and encircling Spring Halo’s duo within them, blocking off the incoming projectiles.
The moment Crotch Lord completed his summoning, he opened up his wings and flew off.
Spring Halo’s demons were extremely tanky. Even after receiving the wild bombardment from Rockabye, the damage taken by them was rather insignificant…
Seems like the damage dealt by Gravity Magic itself wasn’t high. It was just that the crowd control effect that it had was extraordinary.
Upon seeing that Spring Halo was about to escape as well, Derek joined in the a.s.sault and began to unleash a torrent of arrows at him. At the same, Jeff drew a circle in the air and opened up the exit point of the teleportation gate right in front of Spring Halo. Following which, Rockabye directed the tiles in midair as well as Derek’s arrow into the entry point of the teleportation gate.
A sky full of tiles and arrows descended upon Spring Halo.
Just when the few of them thought that Spring Halo was about to be smashed to death, Spring Halo revealed a sly smile, before turning into a cloud of green mist.
[Mistify]!
[Mistify] was an ability that allowed the player to enter a state whereby the player could negate all physical damage dealt to him or her.
As an Archer, Derek’s attack was, needless to say, physical in nature. Even though Rockabye was a Magician, the way he dealt damage with his Gravity Magic was different from other Magicians.
Ordinary Magicians would invoke the elements in order to cast a magic spell at the enemy. Rockabye, on the other hand, controlled physical objects to deal damage to the target. Thus, his attack was still considered a physical one.
Just like that, under the barrage of attacks created by the combined efforts of the three players, Spring Halo casually floated right through it and flew in midair.
“!!!!”
Upon seeing Spring Halo turning into a cloud of smoke and emerging unharmed by their attacks, Rockabye and the rest were stunned speechless. What kind of ability was this? It was too shameless!
See? This was the nature of every player. Even though they themselves possessed overpowered abilities themselves, as long as the other party appeared a little overpowered, they would instantly think that the other party was using some kind of hack and behaving shamelessly.
“Hahaha!”
Upon seeing Crotch Lord and Spring Halo successfully fleeing into the skies, Fearless let out a hearty laugh before enshrouding himself in a ray of red light, activating the [Invincibility] status. It was naturally impossible for Fearless’ summoning to be interrupted once he was in this state.
Fearless turned his back towards Rockabye and the rest’s attacks, before taking off to the skies and catching up with Crotch Lord and Spring Halo in the air.
“F*ck!!!”
Upon seeing the trio from Quan Zhen Sect escaping from the encirclement of their team once more, Rockabye cried out in rage, almost tossing the staff in his hand at the same time.
The rest of them revealed a look of unwillingness and rage as they looked at the gloating figures of Fearless’ trio in midair.
“F*ck!” Upon seeing the Sacred Hall Squad on the ground beneath them, Crotch Lord cursed, “Why didn’t the game allow us to casually sh*t and urinate wherever we want to?”
“Why? Didn’t you go to the toilet before entering the game?” Spring Halo and Fearless asked curiously.
“No!” Crotch Lord replied, “I desperately want to sh*t a bomb on their heads right now.”
“F*ck…”
Spring Halo and Fearless were left speechless.
…
Everyone here was an educated individual. Even if the game supported it, they wouldn’t even think of committing such an indecent act in public.
After provoking the Sacred Hall Squad with some obscene actions in midair for a while, Fearless trio finally left the bar and headed towards the city’s gate to gather with Boson and the rest.
Compared to the capital city in Twilight City, the map area of the wilderness was many times larger.
The instructors at the Magician Academy offered tracking services at a fee. Given the small map size of Twilight City, it was highly likely that they would run into players from Sacred Hall Squad.
However, the map area of the wilderness was extremely vast with a huge diversity of landscapes. The people from Sacred Hall Squad were foreigners. Thus, it would be difficult for them to find someone even with the location given to them. Therefore, the people from Quan Zhen Sect planned to enter a local Dungeon to wait for w.a.n.g Yu to come online and settle his own mess.
At the entrance to Twilight City, Boson’s group of four had already been waiting for Fearless’ group for quite a while. Upon seeing Fearless’ group flying over, Boson and the rest immediately stood up to receive them.
However, the moment Fearless’ trio landed on the ground, a golden-coloured teleportation gate appeared behind him. Shortly after, the Orc Warrior, Bruce, leapt out from the other side of the gate, in front of Quan Zhen Sect’s bunch.
“F*ck! It could be used this way as well?”
Upon seeing Rockabye’s group catching up to them, the minds of the bunch from Quan Zhen Sect were blown.
Heck, this s.p.a.ce Magician could even open up a portable teleportation gate for other players to traverse locations… It was unbelievable.
When dealing with this group of freaks, the only idea that Fearless could think of was the self-destruct strategy which he had used previously to buy time for the rest to fly off. However, this trick had already been used once, and would naturally not work again the second time.
It couldn’t be helped. Fearless could only make use of the opportunity when not all of the members of the other party have been teleported over to make a run for it. He immediately issued the order, “Ignore them. Make a run for it!”
Luckily for them, the bunch from Quan Zhen Sect had already summoned their wings beforehand. Upon receiving Fearless’ order, they immediately took to the skies once more.
Before the bunch from Quan Zhen Sect could ascend to a safe height, the group of players from Sacred Hall Squad had caught up behind Quan Zhen Sect.
Upon seeing the bunch from Quan Zhen Sect fleeing in midair, the players from Sacred Hall Squad began the summoning action as well. Shortly after, a pair of wings appeared behind their backs as well. They had actually summoned capes too!
“F*ck!” Upon seeing their opponents flying in the skies as well, the bunch from Quan Zhen Sect received a great shock, “This is impossible! How could they have wings as well? Could someone from Twilight City be helping them?”
