"Prostrate!"
Bang!
As if Kali"s words were G.o.d"s decree, the Fatal Poisonous Commodus Dragon"s head struck the ground with a bang, making it tremble!
All the surviving players stood with their mouths wide open and their eyes had opened as wide as two beacons of light. None of them, not even Xie Feng could believe what was happening even though it was happening right in front of them.
What happened? Just by saying one or two words, the terrifying five-meter tall monster that was slaughtering all the players as if they were nothing but ants, knelt down on the ground and prostrated itself on the ground! How could that be possible!
The players" minds were covered by a dense fog that seemed to block everyone"s capacity for reasoning.
The Poisonous Commodus Dragon moved its eyes upward, very slowly, as if making the slightest movement was a great challenge for the beast, and looked at Kali.
Roar!
The beast roared, furious! Upon entering the Immortal grade, beasts possessed an intelligence close to that of a boy between 10 and 15 years old, so they knew very well what was going on, unlike low-ranked beasts! The Poisonous Commodus Dragon knew perfectly well that it had the power to crush the humans in front of it easily but now, one of those weak humans forced it to its knees!
At the roar of the enraged beast, Kali"s silver hair and deep blue robe gently shook. However, although the players could not see her face, just by the fact that her hand did not even quiver a little, they knew that her face did not even change. Although she was only two or three meters away from the beast"s jaws, she did not feel the slightest fear.
"Quiet." Kali"s lips moved slowly and a word came out of her mouth. Although Kali"s voice was soft as the night breeze on a summer day and warm as a campfire on a winter day, her words seemed to contain incredible power.
Bang!
The Poisonous Commodus Dragon"s mouth closed with such force that the sound of the beast"s teeth clashing together could be heard by almost everyone present. The players even wondered how the beast hadn"t lost a tooth or two!
"Shiva." Kali"s voice snapped Xie Feng out of his stupor. She turned her face in his direction and slowly uttered, "Eighteen seconds. Hurry up."
Xie Feng"s face changed slowly and without delay activated Cloud Path and began to walk away from the battlefield as he jumped back onto Ferghana"s Horse. In fact, the only reason Xie Feng had not activated Fast Movement was because the skill still needed forty more minutes of cooldown before he could use it again; that was how hurried Xie Feng was!
All the players observed how Shiva disappeared from everyone"s sight in the blink of an eye and went into the forest. Although none of them knew where he was going, none of them thought he was running away from the battle. After all, anyone as famous as Shiva who fled from the battlefield at such a crucial time as now would be hated by all the players in China and mocked by the whole world. What"s more, everyone was very clear about the consequences of failing in the current mission.
Naturally, Xie Feng was not running away. Actually, he was going into the forest to look for monsters. The reason Xie Feng was currently searching for monsters was so that he could use his skill Gale Track.
Gale Track was a skill that Xie Feng acquired when he obtained the t.i.tle G.o.d of Wind after obtaining 100% wind resistance. This skill increased Xie Feng"s attack power for the next skill or the next attack by 100%; a simple but extremely powerful effect. In truth, Gale Track was no different from possessing an extra critical skill.
However, unlike a normal critical skill, Gale Track had restrictions. For example, in order to use Gale Track, Xie Feng had to have the ability to slay enemy monsters in one hit since Gale Track increased Xie Feng"s attack power by 5% for every monster he slayed or the ability to knock them back with the wind of the skill without touching them. Therefore, Xie Feng could not stop his charge and had to continue running while slaughtering all the enemies in his path if he wanted to achieve the maximum possible effect.
"d.a.m.n it!" Xie Feng cursed as he anxiously looked at his surroundings. Five seconds of the time given by Kali had already pa.s.sed but he still didn"t see any monsters nearby!
Apparently, all the nearby monsters were swept away by the system during the mission!
Xie Feng clenched his teeth and took out a teleportation scroll to a distant village of Eminentis City. Although in order to teleport using a scroll the player had to channel for ten seconds, which would cause Xie Feng to take twenty seconds in total just to get there and back, he had no choice.
Worst of all, apart from those twenty seconds, Xie Feng also had to spend some time to get out of the village and kill twenty monsters to reach 100% Gale Track effect!
Just before disappearing in a flash of white light, Xie Feng looked in the direction of Eminentis City. At this point, he could only hope that the rest of the players could buy some time for him.
* * *
-Back to the north gate of Eminentis City.
"Where is this person?" Kali muttered anxiously. There were only five seconds left before her Absolute Word skill lost effect and the Poisonous Commodus Dragon could act freely again! She had no more ways to restrain the boss!
When there were finally two seconds left, Kali"s face changed slightly and she hurriedly stepped back. Without her control skills, she, who never learned how to fight, would only be killed senselessly!
ROAR!!!
The Poisonous Commodus Dragon stood up. The Absolute Word effect had ended... But there was still no sign of Shiva appearing soon.
The battle resumed.
The boss roared, banged, stomped the ground beneath its feet, and used its tail like a whip to slaughter all players who approached or blocked its path.
Instead of saying battle, perhaps it would be more appropriate to say that the one-sided slaughter had resumed.
The players flung their bodies forward without concern for their lives. They were like moths attracted to the flames; although they knew they could only stop the angry beast"s footsteps for a second, they were willing.
"That"s why you can"t trust other men. Look what happened now." Kali, who had moved away from the battlefield again, whispered to herself as she pouted under the veil covering her face.
Suddenly, she saw a red-haired person slowly approaching to the boss with somewhat hesitant steps.
"Uh? What is Yao Mei going to do now? Although her damage is high, she can"t stop that giant." Kali muttered.
Bang!
BOOM!
The Poisonous Commodus Dragon struck with its fists and feet repeatedly and the players were slaughtered one after the other. After killing all the nearby players, the boss began to advance again, however, one person was blocking its path. The boss quickly recognized her as one of the three people who had beaten and humiliated it!
Roar!
Like an unstoppable tsunami, the five-meter tall monster rushed towards Yao Mei causing the ground to shake with each step of the beast.
Yao Mei"s face did not change in the slightest; at least, the surviving players or her older brother Yao Zenyu did not notice anything.
When the Poisonous Commodus Dragon was only three or four meters away, Yao Mei"s mouth opened slightly and a voice as soft that none could hear and as sweet as a baby"s came from her lips:
"Leviathan."
BANG!
A column of fire with Yao Mei as its center shot ten meters into the sky forming a pillar of flames! The crimson-colored flames were so hot that the players instinctively backed away.
Even the Poisonous Commodus Dragon, who was enraged, involuntarily stopped its steps and stared at the blazing spiral of fire with a cautious look on its face.
The battlefield fell silent and all that could be heard was the crackling sound of the fire burning and the wind swirling around the blaze.
Yao Zenyu"s eyes shone slightly and stared at the scene with a strange but excited look at the same time.
BANG!
The pillar of fire surrounding Yao Mei blasted and small fireb.a.l.l.s flew everywhere. Fortunately, the players were relatively far away from the place or they could have been killed by allied fire. However, although frightened, none of those present could take their eyes off the scene in front of them.
After the pillar of flames surrounding Yao Mei exploded, she returned to everyone"s sight. However, apart from Yao Mei, there was another living being standing behind her.
A monster.
A monster no smaller in size than the Poisonous Commodus Dragon made up of crimson red flames and glowing yellow eyes.
ROAR!!!
The fire monster roared with a force no less than that of the Poisonous Commodus Dragon and the s.p.a.ce around the beast shuddered!
Yao Mei looked behind her for a moment and inspected the fire beast.
