Chapter 798 - Life Hanging by a Thread (1/2)

Holy Descent!

A white light fell over Nie Yan and the shadow clone, who both activated the ability from the Medal of the Ten Holy Paladins. It gave them immunity to all magic for three seconds.

Extreme Intimidate!

Nie Yan locked onto Magister Lefis again.

Gale Ambush!

Gale Ambush!

Nie Yan and his shadow clone pincered Magister Lefis again, their daggers streaking like lightning through the air.

Apocalyptic Extinction!

Magister Lefis saw his stats get greatly reduced, as both enemies were already almost on top of him. He waved his staff and blinked five meters away.

Nie Yan took advantage of this opening to pull open Divine Recruitment and summoned Paladin Lafus. In addition to the normal costs, he also had to pay 70,000 gold to revive him.

Nie Yan had turned this one-on-one into a three-on-one.

Indomitable Will!

With a burst of speed, Paladin Lafus charged toward Magister Lefis.

Magister Lefis waved his staff, about to let loose with a barrage of spells. However, Paladin Lafus raised his sword and silenced him.

Nie Yan started to find his tempo and gradually pulled the battle into his favour. Dealing with the relentless pursuit of Nie Yan, the shadow clone, and Paladin Lafus, Magister Lefis was constantly interrupted mid-cast and forced to blink away defensively.

Nie Yan started slowly seizing the advantage.

Feeling the control over the battle slip from his fingers, Magister Lefis became enraged. He found an opening and started chanting. As the last syllable left his mouth, he waved his staff and called down a hailstorm as tennis ball-sized hailstones came raining down.

Nie Yan disregarded the damage from the hailstorm. Taking advantage of the speed buff from Gale Ambush which had yet to wear off, his figure blurred as he closed in on Magister Lefis with Zennarde’s Sword aimed at his throat.

Nie Yan had lost more than 20,000 health braving the hailstorm. Paladin Lafus immediately raised his sword and restored his health back to full with a Radiant Heal.

As Nie Yan was on him again, Magister Lefis was forced to blink away once more.

The shadow clone already stood in position. Nie Yan had perfectly predicted where Magister Lefis would blink to. The moment he reappeared, the shadow clone caught him off guard with a ruthless kick aimed at his back.

Magister Lefis hurriedly protected himself with an Ice Armour. BANG! He staggered several steps forward. Thankfully, he wasn’t crippled.

Nie Yan’s attacks were ruthless and decisive. Magister Lefis couldn’t help but look at him in a new light. This was the first time he’d met a player who could stand up to him.

The shadow clone pounced after Magister Lefis, who buffed himself with Speed of the Windwalker and retreated far away. In a moment, he opened up a distance of 60 meters between them.

Nie Yan, Paladin Lafus, and the shadow clone were only just getting started. They went into pursuit.

Magister Lefis waved his staff. His aura surged, as a powerful energy swept out.

A sense of danger welled up from Nie Yan’s heart. This kind of basic instinct couldn’t be ignored. He immediately ordered the shadow clone and Paladin Lafus to retreat with him.

Magister Lefis’ aura was rapidly gaining in power. His robes fluttered as ice spikes started swirling around him.

This wasn’t Forbidden Magic but rather some kind of secret technique.

“Die!” Magister Lefis shouted. Over 100 ice spikes arced through the sky and came crashing down on Nie Yan.

Nie Yan hurriedly had Paladin Lafus and the shadow clone spread out. Like this, he would force Magister Lefis into making a choice. Would he try and go after all three of them, with no real threat to any of them, or would he focus all his efforts onto one of them?

DING! DING! DING! These ice spikes were incomparably sharp. Nie Yan leaped out of the way. BANG! BANG! BANG! The ice spikes exploded after crashing into the ground.

Magister Lefis could freely control these ice spikes. He unleashed a ruthless assault on Nie Yan, the shadow clone, and Paladin Lafus. The ice spikes were raining down without an end in sight. Paladin Lafus was the first to succumb. Three ice spikes struck him, each dealing 20,000 damage. Frost spread out from them and quickly covered his entire body. Every movement he made suddenly took great effort. With a slowed move, he raised his sword and cast several blessings on himself, dispelling the ice.

Evermore ice spikes came raining down.

Nie Yan suddenly accelerated. He left behind a trail of afterimages as he rushed toward Paladin Lafus and kicked him out of the way.

BANG! BANG! BANG! A barrage of ice spikes struck the ground where Paladin lafus previously stood. If it weren’t for Nie Yan, this would’ve been the end for him.

Magister Lefis was like an all controlling god. Compared to other Magisters, those focusing on the ice attribute possessed the greatest crowd control. This forced Nie Yan, the shadow clone, and Paladin Lafus to dodge around frantically.
