Chapter 806 - By Far the Strangest Attack in the Game (1/2)
Six down! Nie Yan silently counted. With him wreaking havoc on the battlefield, the Blood Reaver Corps fell apart. The players from Asskickers United were completely mowing through them now.
Blood Devil finally came out of astral form. However, the situation on the battlefield was already long out of his control.
The Blood Reaver Corps suffered a crushing defeat!
「Everyone, retreat! If you can run away, run away!」Blood Devil shouted. He looked at his stats. After coming out of astral form, he was weakened for about 30 seconds. He hurriedly drank a Reinvigorating Potion to restore himself to top condition.
「Leave none of them alive!」Nie Yan ordered in a ruthless tone.
「Understood!」Everyone’s killing intent flared out. Their morale was sky high. With victory in sight, how could they not be excited?
「Leave Blood Devil to me!」Nie Yan said before dashing towards Blood Devil.
Several players from the Blood Reaver Corps escaped with Unknown Transfer Scrolls.
“Want to run? Not so easy!” Undying Scoundrel snorted.
The Magisters waved their staffs, and pulled back the players who had teleported away.
The players who tried to teleport away thought they’d escaped, only to find themselves back in the same exact spot they were previously in. They were dumbstruck.
Another two players from the Blood Reaver Corps were sent flying. In order to prevent anyone else from trying to escape, the players from Asskickers United used their Shackles of Strife Scrolls.
Young Seven turned to Undying Scoundrel right beside him and said, “You take care of that Mage. Leave the drow Thief to me!”
“Huh? Okay.” Undying Scoundrel blurted out in a daze. Normally, Young Seven was in charge of healing and rarely ever joined the offensive. However, now that he thought about it, Priests had many skills that were suited for chasing down Thieves. It was just that most Priests were squishy and not great at PvP. So, more often than not they became the targets of Thieves.
They split up and chased down their respective target.
“Where do you think you’re going?” Young Seven threw up a ball of light in the air, which revealed the position of the drow Thief. Then he waved his staff and hit the Thief with a mark.
The drow Thief could no longer hide from Young Seven. Even in stealth, he’d be visible.
The drow Thief glanced back and discovered his pursuer was a Priest. He snorted. “Fuck, even a Priest thinks he can walk all over me now! Just because a tiger isn’t roaring, you think it’s a cute little cat!” However, he kept running. He wasn’t afraid of the Priest, but rather of the possibility that someone more frightening, like a Magister, would step in.
Even after activating Gale Step, the drow Thief was still visible as the glowing mark above his head revealed his position.
Young Seven activated Extreme Tailwind. This was a special skill he obtained from a quest which massively boosted his movement speed. A gust of wind blew below his feet. His gait didn’t change, but his body moved several times faster and he quickly caught up to the drow Thief.
Young Seven waved his staff. He first cast several slow curses on the drow Thief, then targeted him with an Agony.
A string of 600s floated up above the drow Thief’s head. Even though the damage wasn’t high, it still added up over time. The drow Thief’s speed buff from Gale Step immediately disappeared.
The drow Thief glanced back. Finding no other enemies chasing him, his face lit up with joy. A Priest actually dared to chase him, a Thief? He was basically asking to get killed!
What was there to be afraid of? The drow Thief turned around and pounced toward Young Seven.
Young Seven inwardly sneered. He kited back and waved his staff.
The drow Thief had taken a few steps, when his foot suddenly got stuck in the ground. The previously hard earth had transformed into a quagmire. He struggled to pull his foot out, only to have the other sink into the mud as well.
Young Seven had cast the quagmire perfectly. The Thief didn’t know what hit him before it was already too late.
Leap!
The drow Thief instinctively activated the leap skill. His feet barely left the ground, when Young Seven waved his staff and summoned an enormous slime. Ordinary slimes were about as big as a basketball. They had no limbs or face. They were simply large blobs of viscous liquid. Even low level players looked down on these low rank creatures. However, Young Seven’s slime looked a little different from the ones everyone knew. A variant! In terms of attack power, this one was no different from the others. At Level 163, it only had a few hundred attack. However, with the size of an elephant and a health pool of 10,000,000, it was a frightening existence.
Young Seven had obtained this slime on a quest by chance. Whereas most players would throw a pet like this away, he saw the uniqueness in it. It had an extremely high health growth rate, to the extent it could be described as monstrous. With blood, sweat, and tears, and the help of his friends in the guild, he managed to get it to Level 163. At the higher levels, its freakish health pool became apparent. The only downside to this pet was its pitifully low attack power growth rate. It only had 600 attack power at Level 163.
The drow Thief leaped up, only to see a giant black shadow envelop him.
“What the shi-!?” the drow Thief cried out. It was already too late for him to use any escape skills. BOOM! The enormous slime fell down on him with the weight of Mt. Tai, burying him into the earth.
The drow Thief coughed out a mouthful of blood, as he nearly blacked out. He thrashed about violently in a desperate attempt to escape this pudgy slime. However, all resistance was futile.
