Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
” Long Ye 1 ! Watch the entrance! Don’t let them out!”
The Shadowmancer from Satan’s Salvation, “MrHandsome” was tasked to watch the entrance.
Hastily, he instructed a group of players around him to guard the entrance and picked a few agile Bowmasters from the party. His face darkened as he said coldly, “You guys come with me!”
With a grave expression, he rushed to the east of the tomb with a few Bowmasters. A group of players outside the tomb sensed something fishy and asked curiously, “MrHandsome! What’s wrong…?” Several well-equipped players caught up.
The Shadowmancer responded without turning around, “Nothing. A few comrades were slaughtered by a monster Boss. We need a distraction.” As the current party was made up of a few League Clans, even if Tiger Cub had gone, he was not the Captain. His command would not be as powerful as Tiger Cub’s.
“Monster? Are you kidding me? Only Undead beings can be found in this area. I want to take a look. I am going with you!” A player from Maverick Vatican said aggressively. He brought two players with him and went after MrHandsome. MrHandsome was rendered speechless from knowing that these players were not happy being given the task to guard the entrance and that they were trying to escape from it. How unruly!
Just as he was about to respond, someone pulled his sleeve, “Captain! It’s a Boss. A Boss is coming our way!”
A Bowmaster suddenly screamed. In a flash, the Demon Faction players rushed over, attracted by the loud cry.
“F*ck!”
MrHandsome cursed inwardly but at the same time beamed proudly as he had decided to get the players from Satan’s Salvation on guard. If he had not, the players stranded in the tomb would certainly have seized this opportunity to break out. But when he squinted his eyes and looked at the place the Bowmaster was pointing at, he stood stunned and his heart pounded uncontrollably.
It was truly a Boss…A Tier 5 Boss. Gosh!
Chatter could be heard outside the tomb from time to time. Hearing this, Violet Orchid and her party halted the plan to break out. “Monster Boss? Could this be a trap to drive us out?” Someone asked incredulously.
Closing her eyes, Violet Orchid slightly shook her head and said, “I am not sure. Listen! Hold the plan! Nobody take any action! Let’s wait and see how things go.” She looked at the few warriors at the entrance. In a low voice, she commanded, “From now on, everyone remain silent. Players at the entrance, please pay attention to the movements outside”
Everyone nodded and held their breath. As soon as the tomb lapsed into silence, the sounds from the outside became extremely clear.
Bang! Bang!
A giant creature ran hastily, as the sound of its unique footsteps echoed into the tomb. As time went by, the sound got clearer. As the monster approached, the Demon Faction players outside the tomb sank into chaos.
“F*ck! Where did this thing come from?”
“Bowmaster! Drive it away! Hurry up!”
“Where the hell is the Summoner? Summon monster now!”
“F*ck! It’s coming! Warriors, get ready to fight!”
The players outside the tomb screamed in anguish, claiming that the Monster Boss was summoned by the Angel Faction players. It was a terrible mess outside. The party in the tomb could hardly believe this for fear of falling into the ambush set up by the Demon Faction players. Everyone stared attentively at the empty and narrow entrance, not giving themselves any chance to slack off.
Until a loud roar was heard. It was a particularly unique monster roar. Dreadful screams from the Demon Faction players and the percussive sounds in the passageway leading to the entrance of the tomb could be heard.
Her eyes were filled with unrestrained delight. Without hesitating, Violet Orchid raised the staff high in the air. “The reinforcements are here! Let’s fight our way out!”
Perhaps the Amethyst Orc knew that he was running out of time, his movements were faster and crazier than before like a boisterous horse had broken into a furious gallop in the Graveyard of the Gods.
Disregarding the tombstones, dead trees, and bones at the sides, his violet eyes were fixed on the Demon Faction players, beaming in red lights from afar. With lightning speed, he rushed wildly with explosive strength.
In a frenzy, he dealt a mighty blow to a few players from the Demon Faction half a minute ago. No one was able to escape. Now, he could go on a killing spree! He howled.
His speed had suddenly increased as he felt his shoulders lighten. With his current speed, he closed a couple hundred meters in less than five seconds. A giant violet body smashed right into a group of frightened Elite players from the Demon Faction like a locomotive that had lost control.
At that moment, an overwhelming rush of magic and attack skills fell from the sky; Swamp, Earthrampart, Fireburst, Magic Sealing Arrow, Lunarshackle. It was like a celestial beauty showering flower petals.
They were truly the Elites who were capable of entering the fourth level of the Graveyard of the Gods. Among more than forty Demon Faction players, none of them were mediocre. All of them were well prepared even when faced with a Tier 5 Miniboss.
Even with just Bind and Attack Magic, some rare Beastblood Berserkers and Steel Berserkers were in Berserk state. The power was so strong that even a Tier 5 Miniboss could hardly withstand it and would be stunned by a blow.
However, the Amethyst Orc was no regular Boss.
Its eyes flashed with human-like amusement. He quickly changed his movements, rammed from the side to dodge numerous attacks aimed at him and avoided a small swamp on the ground. Only a violet trail was left behind.
The preconceived attack concept and the slow thinking of the Demon Faction players had led to a fruitless attack. At that very moment, an absurd feeling seized their heart. ‘Was that truly a monster? Or was it a player in disguise?’
Slightly confused and disorientated, the Amethyst Orcs paid no regard to the few Berserkers rushing toward him. With a burst of speed, he got around them.
Boom! Violet Lightning Barrage! The Amethyst Orcs squeezed into a large group of Demon Faction players and activated the AoE Assault. Dozens of pro players with long-ranged attacks panicked and were in disarray in a blink of an eye.
With the AoE skill of a Boss with 400 Physical Attack points, a few Bowmasters with low HP, Summoner, and Elementalists were killed on the spot.
But, the nightmare was not over. As soon as Amethyst Barrage was activated, a brown little monster came into sight. No one knew where it came from. With lightning speed, it dashed into the chaotic crowd and spammed attacks. Dreadful screams could be heard as a few Demon Faction players were smashed.
It was a complete disaster!
The Amethyst Orc’s strength was extremely destructive. While dodging the powerful attacks and the Berserkers, he decided to wipe them out as soon as possible by activating numerous AoE skills and inflicted catastrophic damage to the Demon Faction.
With little Poochie, nearly twenty out of the thirty over Demon Faction players were slaughtered. It was more than half of them! Stunned, few Elementalists and Summoners guarding the tomb subconsciously looked at them with a ghastly expression on their faces.
“Warriors! Go get him!”
A scream was heard in the chaos. It was MrHandsome’s command with an attempt to drive the Amethyst Orc away so that the other players could escape and the Elementalist could activate the Magic Scroll.
Unfortunately, it was all in vain. Players without Defense Magic were electrocuted and were temporarily paralyzed by the lightning from the Violet Lightning Barrage.
Disregarding the few warriors on its tail, the Amethyst Orc continued pounding at the Bowmasters and the Summoners. The number of the Demon Faction players was greatly reduced in just a few seconds.
“F*ck! This Boss didn’t even spare a glance at us!”
“Ah!”
As soon as the few players spat those words, under Qin Ruo’s command, they were smashed by little Poochie who was behind the Amethyst Orc.
The Amethyst Orc had now turned its target to the Elementalists. Although these Elementalists were shielded by the barrier, without sufficient time to activate dual defenses, they were extremely vulnerable. After activating the Violet Lightning Barrage, a huge purple cloud swirled and slid through few the Elementalists. In an instant, their bodies collapsed and disintegrated into pieces.
The Amethyst Orc was truly an almighty battle droid under Qin Ruo’s command. After completely killing most of the powerful players, he immediately rushed toward the ghastly pale Elementalist and warriors guarded at the tomb.
“It is a trap! The Boss is summoned by the Angel Faction players!”
“Retreat!”
Shouting loudly, the lucky MrHandsome who escaped from the horrifying battle commanded the party to retreat as he had finally noticed the conspiracy from the Amethyst Orc’s movements to be meticulously planned and plotted. A Boss controlled by a player was extremely horrifying.
Hearing this, the players from the Demon Faction suddenly lost their fiery spirits. Even the players from Satan’s Salvation League who were tasked to guard the entrance had escaped.
Just as a few players from Satan’s Salvation League were about to retreat, a few dozens of silhouettes broke through the tomb. Being stranded in the tomb for more than two hours, they could no longer restrain their anger. There was no way they would spare these Demon Faction players. A voice of uncontrollable power suddenly roared, “Kill them!”
