Chapter 385: Wild Battle

Translator: Atlas Studios  Editor: Atlas Studios

Sizzle—

A great wave of water vapor rose up and blurred everyone's vision, just like the scenario caused when a burning metal was thrown into ice water. At the moment the Sea Mage's attack descended, Lin Jie jumped up with the powers of his Holy Light Winged Armor and Feather Drop Gem, dodging the attack. However, the Corporal who had activated the Sun Possession skill crashed into the Sea Mage's attacks!

After the Sea Mage's arm was amputated by Lin Jie, he had placed a curse on him that he would pursue Lin Jie to his death in the following three months. Unless Lin Jie stayed within the city areas, the Sea Mage would not give up his pursuit.

[Sea Mage Laney] (Dark Gold Overlord)

Level 41

Health Points: 550,000

Magic attack: 1,728-2,283

Defense: 450

Sea Condensing Spell: Sea Condensing Spell Expert

After losing the Legendary item Sea Bed, Laney's abilities had taken a dip. After all, one of the attached conditions of owning the Sea Bed was that 'once the Sea Bed was destroyed, the owner of the Sea Bed will suffer a 50% decrease in all of his or her Stats'. Coupled with the fact that Lin Jie had chopped off the arm, which was filled with the power of the Seaheart Pearls, and all the other injuries Laney had suffered from the battle at the Mesosaprobic Shrine, his abilities had reached an all-low stage.

Currently, he was just a Dark Gold Overlord.

Saying that he was still very strong and not to be reckoned with.

“Human soldier, scram!” The Sea Mage hovered about in the air and shouted, “Get off, rt's none of your business!”

“No, you scram instead!” Mohamed was fuming—how could he ever listen to even one of Laney's words? He blasted a Sun Blade Aura right at Laney. Meanwhile, his gigantic sword was like a whip, and after a loud crack, he curled the Sea Mage down to his sight level.

“Hmph, you are asking for it.” The Sea Mage felt this Dark Gold Overlord's attack at him, and he sniffed derogatory. He pointed a finger at Mohamed's Blade Aura nonchalantly, and…

Swoosh!

Laney's body flew out and landed with a loud thud on the ground as if it was a broken kite.

'Idiot, he still thinks he's the Mesosaprobic Shrine's Master.' Lin Jie cracked up in laughter at this scene. He activated Forward Charge, whipped out Broken Blade, and stabbed at the Sea Mage's face with a combo attack of Army Obliteration and Shield Cut.

When Broken Blade touched Laney's face, there was a sound of clashing metals heard—such was the prowess of the Sea Mage. Even the Defense on his face was so powerful! Lin Jie felt as if he was attacking the hard muscles on an opponent's main body.

-1,473!

-1,592!

-1,477!

-3,000!

-4,283!

This whole set of damage inflicted nearly 10,000 damage points on the Sea Mage. Meanwhile, the Enrage Greaves' Movement Speed had stacked to 5 layers by now, and Lin Jie's Movement Speed was increased by 25% overall. Lin Jie immediately rushed out of sight and activated the Fog Concealment skill to hide.

The attacks between the Sea Mage's spells and the Corporal's skills had resulted in a large amount of water vapor, and this was definitely the best kind of 'fog' Lin Jie could hope for. It was no wonder Lin Jie could conceal all his tracks almost instantaneously.

The Sea Mage had a distorted expression on his face. As the saying went, “A man who loses position and influence will be subjected to such indignity.” He had not gotten used to the fact that he was no longer that powerful, and immediately he was given such a rude awakening call by the Corporal. Not to mention, his face was now swollen from being stabbed by Lin Jie. How could he ever stomach such humiliation? He took a deep breath, and his chest protruded out. In the next second, several Water Bombs shot out from his mouth towards the Corporal!

Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!

Mohamed raised up his sword to parry the attack. However, the Sea Mage's Mana attacks were too strong to resist. Although much of the damage was being blocked off by Mohamed's Sun Armor, he was still being blasted and thrown to the ground by the impact of the attacks.

“Hunter's Forward Charge, the hell with you!”

Lin Jie rushed out again and attacked Mohamed with a Shield Cut attack! All this while, he had only aimed at the Corporal's waist area. This was because that area was the weakest part of his body. However, with the complementary effects of the Level 11 Sun Armor, Mohamed's Defense was too formidable. Even though Lin Jie had attacked him all this while, there did not seem to be much decrease in his health bar.

-1,203!

Much as though Shield Cut's Armor Ignore effects were helpful, Lin Jie still felt rather hopeless as he looked at how his other attacks were being blocked by Mohamed's 3,000 Defense points. On top of that, he had suffered quite some damage due to the Sun Armor's damage reflect abilities. If he had used the Army Obliteration skill, he might even be killed by his own attacks.

It seemed like the only way to get past the Sun Armor was to attack it with Mana attacks!

Meanwhile, although the Sea Mage's powers were greatly reduced, he could still kill Lin Jie easily. After all, if he used the Poseidon Shrine's signature Sea Condensing Spell, he would pwn Lin Jie at any time.

As the saying went, “When two tigers fight, one is sure to lose.”

Lin Jie had been planning to use the Corporal to fight against the Sea Mage all along, and hence get rid of both difficult characters in one go!

After the Sea Mage issued the homicidal warrant against him, Lin Jie had been thinking of what Boss he could make use of to help him fight against him. However, this wasn't an easy goal to achieve. First of all, the Boss Lin Jie chose must be of a high level, and at least someone who's a Dark Gold Overlord. If not, the Sea Mage might just smash him into a meat pie easily…

Next, that Boss must have some Wisdom—but not a lot. This was because Bosses without Wisdom would most probably be beasts, and they would abide by the Aggro mechanism. Lin Jie wouldn't be able to make use of such Bosses to fight for him, and in fact, he might even be under the attacks of both Laney and that Boss together. Yet if the Boss Lin Jie selected had very high Wisdom, he would not be tricked that easily.

However, as if someone had delivered a heater to a typist whose hands were freezing, Corporal Mohamed had appeared at this exact timing.

He was powerful—a Corporal who had inherited the Sun Swordsmanship.

Yet he did not have a lot of Wisdom—he had actually changed Lin Jie's Job-Changing Mission forcefully just because he had wanted to vent his frustration.

Well, wasn't this the perfect Boss designed for Lin Jie? As such, Lin Jie had decided to accept Mohamed's 'good intents' and come to the Hellfire Plains gladly. Indeed, the Sea Mage had found him here, and just nicely, Mohamed was enraged too. Those two fellows, who were too furious to consider anything more, started fighting against each other, and Lin Jie was able to reap the benefits.

“You should come out too.” Lin Jie flipped his hands, and a dark, squarish stone appeared in his hands. This was the [Summoning Stone of Death Knight]. Regardless of whether the monster he summoned could be controlled by him or not, it was a good idea to let this monster join this fight.

Wu—

Once the Summoning Stone was crushed, a howl from the deep abyss of death was heard. Along with a loud neigh from the Horses of Death, a Death Knight, who donned a dark-grayish Armor of Death and equipped a Death Light Helmet, charged out, wielding a long saber in his hands!

[Death Knight] (Dark Gold Elite)

Level 41

Health Points: 75,000

Attack: 938-1,293

Defense: 550

Special Feature: Dark Halo (It will decrease every one of the surrounding units' attributes by 5%, and also their Dark Resistance by 50 points). Cavalry Suppression (It will cause an additional 15% of damage to units who do not have a Mount).

The Death Knight stared at Lin Jie, and the lights in his eyes flickered as if the wavering of ghostfire in the winds.

Suddenly, the lights in his eyes blazed brightly—the Death Knight had wrestled free of Lin Jie's control! He raised up his long saber and slashed it down upon Lin Jie!

The Death Knight's saber had an enormous AOE. Its cold Dark Blade Auras limited Lin Jie's movements, making him unable to hide anywhere else.

“Outraged Roar!”

Lin Jie let out a deafening roar, and gold light descended around his body. The gold lights materialized into a glistening Clomaros above him, and Broken Blade slashed down upon the Death Knight's horse!

Clomaros' Kill!

This huge force made the Death Knight fly out. He landed right in between the Sea Mage and the Corporal!

“Dark Crescent Slash!”

The Death Knight had just drawn a full circle with his sword, and this arc slitted the Sea Mage's collar. Its Dark Auras tore away 700 points of Laney's health bar. However, the next moment, the Death Knight was flung out by a slash of Mohamed's sword. The remnant effects of the Corporal's Sun Blade Auras landed upon the Sea Mage, and the wild battle ensued!

Meanwhile, Lin Jie hid aside at a corner and waited for his chance.

Right now, it was a wild battle among these three monsters, and by the looks of it, the Death Knight would definitely be killed first. This meant that he only had to tackle the Sea Mage and the Corporal. Lin Jie had not used his Dragon Armor Removal skill up till now, and all was for this moment—NPCs' thinking was very rigid, and as Mohamed was fearless of Lin Jie with his Sun Armor, he would not expect Lin Jie to be able to disarm him!

Yet, such effects were exactly what Lin Jie had been hoping for!

The battle between the Sea Mage and the Corporal was getting into a state of fervor as time went by. Of course, Lin Jie's shameless attacks in between had further aggravated the situation. Seawater, flames, and blade auras were flashing about everywhere within sight.

As for the poor Death Knight… As a Dark Gold Elite Boss, this figure would terrorize anyone no matter where he appeared. If this Summoning Stone of Death Knight was found within the Tribe of Darkness, which was full of Necromancers, it would definitely be sold off at a skyrocketing price. After all, anyone who owned a Dark Gold Elite underling at this stage of the game could easily command their way on all sorts of maps.

The Death Knight actually had very strong abilities, and it had two active skills, the Dark Crescent Slash and Death Sprint. However, it was facing two Dark Gold Overlords at the same time—and naturally, the two enraged Dark Gold Overlords shredded him to pieces. Just the sputter damage from their attacks was enough to leave him without any piece of undamaged skin.

Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!

Just as the Death Knight was about to die, five bursting sounds were heard from the fog. It was Lin Jie—he used the Silent Killer to finish off the Death Knight, who was just left with a silver of health!

Since this Death Knight was summoned by him, all the rewards spawned after his death would naturally belong to Lin Jie.

—”You killed the Death Knight, you received 20 Holy Church Reputation Points.”

Lin Jie was already mentally prepared that he would not get any EXP for killing such monsters. His eyes were fixed upon a dark-gray book spawned the moment the Death Knight was killed—that item was a Skill Book!

That's correct, a Skill Book! Items spawned by the monsters the likes of Death Knights would most probably be skills that only players from the Tribe of Darkness could learn.

Hunter's Forward Charge!

Right at the moment Lin Jie activated his skill, Mohamed's eyes stared ahead—he finally decided to release his most powerful skill! His Sun Armor radiated vibes of destruction, and just like a black hole, it engulfed all of the seawater and flames! His health bar was emptied to a mere 40,000 points during the fight with the Sea Mage, and now was the time to use his most destructible skill!

“Hmph, lowly human being,” Laney looked at the stance Mohamed took, and with a loud shout, all of the water vapor in the air was being condensed into an illusionary trident. This trident gave off the vast and mighty vibes of Poseidon, and it looked like it was about to intercept Mohamed's attacks.

Boom—

Suddenly, Laney felt a sharp pain coming from his stomach. He lowered his head and saw Broken Blade sticking out of his waist area!

Lin Jie's Forward Charge's stunning effect was activated, and it disrupted Laney's Mana attack.

“Hehe…” Lin Jie blinked his eyes. He grabbed onto the Skill Book that was on the ground and quickly rushed out of the battlefield again!

At that moment, a harsh roar like the growl of a wild beast burst out.

“Glorious Cremation!”
