Misty Strike wasn't an AoE skill, but when the target's positioning was too coordinated, it became an AoE skill.
At this moment, the mages were very coordinated. They lined up in a line and waved their staffs at Gu Fei and the three minions. They wanted to cast spells while enjoying the sight of Gu Fei and the minions dying. This gave Sword Ghoul an opportunity to use Misty Strike as an AoE skill.
Sword Ghoul's figure suddenly disappeared. When he reappeared, the first mage in the line had disappeared. Fog Ambush was a powerful Skill. To current players, it was a Skill of a higher level. Moreover, Sword Ghost was a top-tier Assassin with a full set of high-end equipment. Currently, the Mage's body was as thin as a sheet of paper.
Sword Ghoul, who had turned into a black shadow, was like a bamboo stick. The mages were the pitiful candied haws that were pierced through by a single strike. White light bloomed one after another, one after another. The power of the Misty Ambush gradually decreased as the mages were insta-killed one after the other. In the end, it didn't have the power to instantly kill them, but the mages were already scared out of their wits. How could they still care about casting spells? They all fled in all directions.
Gu Fei's spirit was lifted when he got the chance to breathe. However, there were still many people in the party. With a strong leader like Mr. Han, they wouldn't be able to shine today. He immediately yelled at the three minions, "Retreat!"
The soldier could understand this order, so he got up and ran away. The minions were so fast that normal players couldn't catch up to them.
"Don't panic. Hold your ground!" Mr. Han said angrily. He hadn't trained them personally, so commanding them wasn't easy. There would always be unexpected problems. Sword Ghoul's Misty Strike was fierce, but there were twenty to thirty people here. His attack couldn't have insta-killed them all, right? However, they were shocked by the candied haws and lost their footing.
"Archers, archers, harass them!" Mr. Han hurriedly ordered for them to intercept. The greatest advantage of archers was their range, unlike Warriors and Thieves who had to be summoned to fight. When the archers heard the order, they immediately raised their hands and fired. The Han Family young master was so angry that he spat out blood. "F * ck, why are you shooting those three? Those three are NPCs, shoot those two!!!" When the archers saw the three little soldiers running at the front, they all shot their arrows at them. However, the NPCs were masters of death. If the arrows came, then so be it. They would still run. It was possible to kill them, but they could forget about harassing them. Who would care about them?
"Ice Whirlwind, Ice Whirlwind!" The young master of the Han Family yelled again. The strongest team in this Wine Music duo was still their team of Mages. However, the minions had already run quite a distance away. Even if they used Ice Whirlwind, they wouldn't be able to catch up to them. Everyone could only turn their attention to Gu Fei and the Sword Ghoul, who were much slower.
"I'll fight it out with you!!!" Gu Fei suddenly roared and jumped back. Although he had always looked down on Gu Fei for being a martial artist, he knew deep down that Gu Fei wasn't the hot-blooded and impulsive type. His current actions were too irrational. He was just an NPC soldier. If he died, so be it. What was the big deal? Could it be that he had spent a lot of gold to buy it?
The young master of the Han Family didn't understand, but he didn't dare to be negligent. He hurriedly ordered the players to surround the two. In this chaotic battle, Gu Fei hadn't displayed much of his strength. On the other hand, the Sword Ghoul's First Capture the King and Second Pierce the Candied Haws made the players of the Wine Music duo very afraid. They actually hid from him and bullied Gu Fei.
The Sword Ghoul was excited! Ever since he had fought alongside Gu Fei, when had he ever seen such a scene? Most enemies would hide from Thousand Miles Drunk. They were originally all-powerful experts, but today, they were finally able to regain some ground.
The players of the Wine Music duo were finally united. The team of nearly a hundred people began to show off their strength. Although Gu Fei and the Sword Ghoul were experts, they couldn't handle so many people. After clashing for a while, the encirclement became tighter and tighter.
"Out of mana?" The Sword Ghoul asked Gu Fei when they brushed past each other. Gu Fei was currently playing with his sword. He didn't have the opportunity to use his powerful Dual Flame Flash.
"I still have some left. I'm waiting for an opportunity!" Gu Fei said.
"What opportunity?" The Sword Ghoul asked.
"Can you still fight your way out?" Gu Fei asked.
The Sword Ghoul laughed, "I'm waiting for a cooldown!"
"Can you hold on?"
"If it was before, it would be difficult. But now, I think it's about the same." The Sword Ghoul said. The devilish training he had gone through this period of time hadn't been a waste. In addition, he didn't need to rest to play the game. The Sword Ghoul played like a madman, spending an average of 16 hours a day on the game.
"Alright, I'll see you in the city!" Gu Fei said.
The Sword Ghoul didn't doubt Gu Fei's strength. He felt that it wouldn't be a problem for him to fight his way out. If it weren't for the Han Family's young master's command, they would have already escaped. However, under this guy's command, the encirclement was always full. Every direction was filled with perfect equipment for every class. There wasn't a single weak spot.
The Sword Ghoul looked around. He could see that the Han Family's young master was almost done setting up the formation. This guy was going for a one hit kill. He wasn't going to give the two of them a chance to escape. The Sword Ghoul estimated that his Misty Strike's cooldown was within this guy's calculations. This guy would probably attack before the Sword Ghoul could use the skill.
However, the Sword Ghoul was prepared. He held a small scroll in his hand. Skill Scroll: Limit Removal.
The scroll was something that the Sword Ghoul had unintentionally obtained during his hard work. The effect of the scroll was very powerful. It could remove all the restrictions of any skill. This restriction included requirements, cooldown, time, etc. It meant that the skill specified in the scroll wouldn't need to wait for the cooldown to be reset. It wouldn't need to cast or cast time. It wouldn't need to consume any mana, energy, or rage.
The value of this scroll wasn't low. The only regret was that it was only a one-time use scroll. Many people liked to save this kind of thing for a critical moment. However, the more they thought about it, the more they didn't use it. This was because at a critical moment, they would hesitate: Is it critical enough? Moreover, many people were unlucky because they didn't use it. Instead, they would use it to comfort themselves: Heh, I'm dead, but this one-time use treasure is useless. I can still use it at a critical moment …
Sword Ghoul was an expert who had seen great winds and waves. He would always use a one-time use item when he could. And now, he was going to use this Limit Removal. In fact, with this scroll, his Misty Strike could be said to have no cooldown. He could have broken out of the encirclement a long time ago. However, he would only use it at a critical moment. He also had the thought of using it at a critical moment. However, he was determined to execute it.
Seeing that the Han Family's young master was about to use his full strength, the Sword Ghoul called out to Gu Fei, "Let's go!"
"Okay, slow down!"
The two of them greeted each other as if they had just finished a meal. The Sword Ghoul flung the scroll and Limit Removal was used. The skill instantly became unconditional. The Sword Ghoul didn't hesitate either. He raised his dagger and a black shadow flashed out. He didn't even bother to use the little bit of Stealth that he had in the middle.
There were only about a hundred people in Singing for Wine, so there weren't many layers of encirclement. The Sword Ghoul had already planned this out, so he had been playing with them for so long. Once the skill was used, a white light flashed again. The Sword Ghoul's cross-level skill, high-end equipment, and perfect stat points made its attack power higher than Gu Fei's magic damage. Gu Fei couldn't insta-kill him, but he couldn't run away from the Sword Ghoul.
"Ahhhhh!" There were screams all the way. Halfway through, the person was teleported away. The Sword Ghoul pierced through the encirclement with his dagger and left without looking back. The Singing for Wine players looked at the Han Family's young master resentfully. Didn't you say that his skill was on cooldown?
The Han Family's young master was also at a loss! He had indeed considered the cooldown of the Sword Ghoul's skill, but no matter how much he thought about it, he couldn't have predicted that the Sword Ghoul had recently obtained such a new item! The Sword Ghoul wasn't Imperial Divine Screech or Invulnerable Battle. He would definitely take out whatever he obtained to show off, so no one knew that he had such a skill scroll on him.
The Sword Ghoul rushed for a distance, but when he looked back, he saw that no one was chasing him. He had used Hazy Shadow Ambush and then Swift Movement, so there was no way he could catch up to him even if he wanted to. The Han Family's young master didn't want to expose a flaw in his formation just because he chased after the Sword Ghoul. The first thing he did was to immediately arrange for people to fill in the gap created by the Sword Ghoul after he broke through. In order to prevent Gu Fei from doing anything strange, he hurriedly surrounded him.
The Han Family's young master was also very clear about Gu Fei's mana. After disarming the trap, he had used Dual Flame Flash twice, teleportation once, and lightning once. With such consumption, he should still have one more ultimate skill left, but he hadn't used it yet. It seemed like he was preparing to use it when he broke out of the encirclement. But here came the problem: he had come back on his own accord, and it didn't look like he was trying to break out of the encirclement. What was he planning?
"This formation has no flaws at all …" The Han Family's young master praised his own formation, but since the Sword Ghoul had just done something unexpected, he wasn't sure if Gu Fei would also have some tricks up his sleeves.
Surrounding Gu Fei in the center of the encirclement, while everyone distanced themselves from each other. Then, the Mages would attack him from afar. Of course, this situation was perfect, but how could Gu Fei give him such a chance? He stuck close to them like a piece of sticky candy, always going for the densest part of their group. One of the Mages in Singing for Wine was getting impatient and yelled in the channel, "Try to keep him busy. Our Mages will directly attack him. He won't lose a level if he dies anyways.
The Han Family's young master hadn't even said anything about sacrificing his own people, but someone was already prepared to use it. A few of the melee players were aware of the situation and decided to sacrifice themselves to teach Thousand Miles Drunk a lesson. Seeing that the Mages were about to cast their spells, the Han Family's young master's mind suddenly lit up and he hurriedly stopped them, "Stop, don't cast your spells!"
Some of them stopped, but some of them had already cast their spells. It was too late for them to stop. At this moment, Gu Fei suddenly swung his sword, and the few players who thought that he was entangled were immediately left behind. Gu Fei had already dashed to the other side to join in the fray, but the spells wouldn't chase after Gu Fei. They landed on the spot and smashed into the few comrades who had volunteered to sacrifice themselves. Fortunately, most of the players had already stopped when they heard the Han Family's young master's words. A few of them took a few hits and didn't die. The Han Family's young master saw that this was a good thing. He didn't have to waste his breath and simply said in the channel, "See? This is his plot. "
In the end, there were people who didn't understand and asked, "What plot?"
"He guessed that we would use this method to deal with him, so he pretended to be entangled and lured us to cast our spells. Then he would escape and the spells would blow up our own people." The Han Family's young master said.
The players who treated alcohol as brothers recalled the scene and all sighed, "Too despicable."
That was what the Han Family's young master said to the guild members, but in his heart, he had a different thought. Gu Fei's guess was that the Han Family's young master would use this method. Gu Fei had always despised this method. He wanted to use this opportunity to make him suffer the consequences of his own actions. This guy was too despicable!! The Han Family's young master's final thought was the same as everyone else in the guild.
Since he had already seen through it, he naturally wouldn't let Gu Fei's plot succeed. The Han Family's young master actually didn't plan on sacrificing his own people in this setup. Even sacrificing his own people was a method that he had no choice in the situation. Now that the situation was completely under his control, there was no need to do so.
"Shrink the inner circle and surround him!!!" The Han Family's young master gave the order. This was his strategy to deal with Gu Fei. He had clearly surrounded Gu Fei in two circles. This was to prevent Gu Fei from using teleportation. Gu Fei wanted to use teleportation to escape from the encirclement, but he could only move half of the encirclement. The outer circle was still there, and then the inner circle circled around him. Before Gu Fei could escape, he was surrounded again. Gu Fei, who had no mana, could only deal limited damage. In the end, he could only exhaust himself to death.
So, if Gu Fei wanted to use teleportation to escape, it would save him a lot of trouble. On the other hand, if he used Dual Flame Flash, he would be able to kill a few more people. However, he couldn't escape.
The Han Family's young master saw through Gu Fei's thoughts and relaxed. He wouldn't do anything strange and immediately gave the order to attack together.
Gu Fei once again moved. Then, he saw that a circle of players had surrounded him, not giving him any chance to escape. He smiled and the Night Streamer Sword hung down.
No one paid any attention to his actions. Everyone had been holding back their energy for a long time and were fighting to be the first to attack him. If not for the fact that the weapons in their hands were very valuable, many of them would have already thrown them at Gu Fei's face.
Gu Fei glanced at the group of people who had pounced on him. He chuckled and said to them, "Fire!"
While everyone was still in a daze, they were already brandishing their weapons at Gu Fei. Suddenly, the ground beneath their feet heated up. In an instant, the entire inner circle was engulfed in flames. This time, the flames didn't rise and fall. Instead, a large white flower bloomed in the center of the circle, with Gu Fei right in the middle of it. He opened his mouth to laugh, but before he could do so, he disappeared along with a bunch of other players in the white light.
A deathly silence ensued. Everyone's eyes were wide open as they watched the lively crowd disappear just like that. Only a few thick-skinned defensive warriors were left. They held their shields in their hands as they stood there in a daze, looking at the flames beneath their feet that were dancing around them.
Everyone looked at each other, then at their commander: Han family's young master.
Han family's young master's expression was very ugly. The moment everyone died, he immediately realized that he had been tricked, a very big one at that.
He wanted to set up a perfect encirclement and exhaust Gu Fei to death. However, he didn't know that during the encirclement, Gu Fei was the one exhausting them. Originally, they weren't afraid of exhausting their health because they had a Cleric. However, in such a chaotic situation, Clerics were very limited. The parallel world wasn't like normal online games, where there was a long line of players and the player could go and farm skills as soon as they saw that their health was low. The requirements for Clerics in the parallel world were very strict. Many things had to be observed and judged by the players themselves. Fortunately, the system gave them some subsidies. Just like how Archers received subsidies for their shooting, Clerics would receive a lot of feedback from the system that they needed to be healed within their own healing range.
Even so, they still had to observe who was injured. During the healing process, they also had to be able to see who was being healed. Therefore, in the situation just now, Clerics were limited, especially when Gu Fei led them to run. Even if the Clerics were in a reasonable position at the start, it would still be a mess if they ran and didn't run.
Gu Fei took advantage of this and ran around, doing as much damage as he could to one player after another, lowering their health. The players didn't care too much about their health, so they were led to the center by Gu Fei. A Thousand Layers of Flames of the Cinder Tree killed them along with himself.
If not for this, Gu Fei wouldn't have been able to kill them so cleanly with an area-of-effect spell. However, at this moment, apart from a few tanky heavy-armored warriors, no one was left alive. This spell killed at least 30 people.
Seeing everyone's gazes directed at him, Han family's young master smiled disdainfully. He sniffed and said, "He's lucky to have died quickly!"
In the city, Gu Fei was revived in the Mage Academy. He was in a good mood. If he could send a message to Han family's young master, how happy would that be? Unfortunately, nothing was perfect!
Gu Fei thought and sent a message to Sword Ghost. "Still not back? I'm here. "
"You're shameless …" Sword Ghost broke free and watched from afar as Gu Fei prepared to escape. In the end, he saw Gu Fei set himself on fire.
"Haha, that guy likes to drag people down with him, so I can only satisfy him." Gu Fei said.
"But what about your quest? I think it's too difficult for us to complete the quest from Singing to Wine with our little strength. "Sword Ghost said.
"Mm, that's right … It seems like Singing to Wine takes this quest very seriously. There must be over a hundred people, right?"
"More or less."
"Let's think of another way. Where are the soldiers?" Gu Fei finally cared about his soldiers.
"They entered the city by themselves. What order did you give them?" Sword Ghost saw Gu Fei order the soldiers to retreat and muttered a few words to them.
"I told them to wait at the city gate."
"Oh, then we'll meet at the city gate!" Sword Ghost replied.
