Chapter 769 - Ridiculous Critical Hits (1/2)
Phantom Princess Ina repeatedly struck Bladelight with her tentacles. However, unlike with the Warriors before him, he was only pushed back slightly.
Bladelight took Phantom Princess Ina’s attacks head-on, even pushing her back.
Phantom Princess Ina’s tentacles dealt physical damage. Champions had the highest physical resistance among all Master classes. So, he naturally didn’t fear her attacks like others would.
Smoke Stub and Lei Su flanked Phantom Princess Ina from both sides, locking her down and preventing her from running rampant on the backline.
Bladelight was as steady as Mt. Tai, an immovable object. As soon as his health fell low, Young Seven, Paladin Lafus, and Dark Requiem would heal him, instantly topping his health back up.
The players from Asura Inferno and Devil World Riders couldn’t help but feel somewhat envious. All their Fighters had been sent flying away by Phantom Princess Ina. They finally understood why comparison was considered the thief of joy. If they had someone of Bladelight’s caliber, the average equipment quality of their guilds would go up by at least three notches.
With Bladelight, Smoke Stub, and Lei Su locking down Phantom Princess Ina, the Mages from Asura Inferno and Devil World Riders felt completely safe. They raised their staffs and let loose. A shower of magic arced through the sky and rained down on Phantom Princess Ina.
They only dealt around 20–30 damage each. Even critical hits didn’t deal more than 60 damage.
Tang Yao, Xie Yao, Undying Scoundrel, and the others also started attacking. Strange words left their mouths as they waved their staffs, launching one spell after another. BANG! BANG! BANG! A string of damage values floated up above Phantom Princess Ina’s head. They ranged between 7,000–8,000, sometimes even critting for upwards of 20,000.
The players from Asura Inferno and Devil World Riders were completely dumbstruck. The Mages especially felt so ashamed of themselves they wished they could crawl in a hole and die! Normally, Masters and ordinary players like them didn’t share the same battlefields, so they'd never seen a direct comparison in damage before. Now that they did, they understood just how wide the gap was.
Nie Yan circled behind Phantom Princess Ina, then slashed out with Backbreaker, Backstab, and a flurry of other skills.
How ordinary players felt watching Masters, so did Masters watching Nie Yan. His attacks were hitting for at least 10,000 and even critting as high as 130,000 damage.
Seeing Nie Yan’s damage, not just the players from Asura Inferno and Devil World Riders, Undying Scoundrel, Lustboy, and the others also gawked in surprise.
「Boss, what kind of critical damage is that!? My god. 10x damage, that’s ridiculous!」
「130,000 damage, that’s absolutely insane! I’ve never seen a critical hit do so much!」
The Masters were all in disbelief and perstered Nie Yan in voice chat for answers.
While barraging him with question, Nie Yan critted again. 153,041! And again. 128,972!
What kind of critical rate was this!?
Nie Yan’s was dealing critical hits so consistently. How could this be!? If his attacks were aimed at a player, even someone like Bladelight would be instantly killed!
Seeing the fervent gazes of Undying Scoundrel, Lustboy, and the others, Nie Yan chuckled.「It’s all thanks to Zennarde’s Sword.」
「What? Zennarde’s Sword?」Undying Scoundrel’s gaze fell on the black dagger in Nie Yan’s hand.「But we’ve all already seen its properties before. I admit, it was pretty amazing for back then, but isn’t it far outclassed by higher level weapons by now? I’ve been wondering why you haven’t switched it out for something else already.」
「If I recall correctly, Zennarde’s Sword is a weapon that can grow stronger, right?」Summer Bug interjected.
「Ah, that would explain it.」
「Boss, show us what its stats are like right now!」
If he didn’t let them see, they would probably continue pestering him about it. Nie Yan rubbed his chin. He trusted this group. Even though he didn’t know Dark Requiem and Street Vulture very well, they were Black Hell’s people. They wouldn’t betray him.
Nie Yan shared the properties of Zennarde’s Sword in the chat.

Everyone sucked in a cold breath of air. What were these properties? Insane! Ridiculous! Impossible! Especially the 35% chance to deal 1,000% critical damage. No wonder Nie Yan’s critical hits hit so often and so hard!
Apart from the critical rate, the other properties like the Level Ignore +65 and 5,500+ attack power weren’t to be ignored either. All of them were eye-watering.
「Boss, this Annihilation Slash. It’s the same kill you used to kill those dozen Angel Corps elites and finish off Necromancer Vorderman, right?」Undying Scoundrel asked with a look of amazement.
「Yeah.」Nie Yan nodded.
「Advanced Apocalyptic Extinction also looks really powerful!」
