Li Shuyi snorted. Facing a hero, she didn't have the slightest fear. She attacked fiercely with both swords, fighting speed with speed. She clashed fiercely with Bi Cha.
At first, Bi Cha didn't take Li Shuyi, an elite, seriously. He suffered a small loss as soon as they exchanged blows. Blood seeped out from the wound on his shoulder. He turned serious, but after a few moves, he was hit by a sword. His heart trembled as he called out,
"This woman is quite powerful!"
Although Li Shuyi was an elite, her agility growth was as high as 4 points per level. She wasn't much inferior to an agility-type hero! Coupled with her luxurious equipment, the Level-6 Li Shuyi's agility had reached 43 points, about the same as Bi Cha's.
This was also because Bi Cha was born in the chaotic Southeast Asian region and lived a life of bloodshed. Even as an agility-type Awakened, he had to consider his physique when choosing his equipment.
Trust in teammates was all fake. Even if he had ten tank-type heroes as teammates, it wasn't as real as an increase in his maximum HP. This was the inherent thinking of many Awakened in the chaotic regions.
Finally, Li Shuyi's swordsmanship specialty was at Level-7. High attack speed meant that there were very few flaws in her moves. Without using any skills, Li Shuyi could be said to be no weaker than any agility-type Awakened under Level-7. Swish!
Swish! Swish!
Bi Cha's dagger left three afterimages, splattering blood on Li Shuyi's body. This was his combat skill, Gale Stab. It was much better than Li Shuyi's Slash skill and had an extremely high hit rate.
The instant Li Shuyi was hit, a purple color appeared on the surface of his body. He had been poisoned and slowed down. His movement speed and attack speed had clearly decreased.
Li Shuyi immediately used the Green Lotus Seed to remove the poison. But at this moment, an explosion that only Li Shuyi could hear rang out. Her face immediately turned pale and she froze in place.
This was the skill of Zalen, who had never appeared before: Spirit Pierce! While dealing damage, targets with less than 60% of Zalen's Spirit would enter a state of fear!
Bi Cha sneered as he raised his dagger. After an obvious movement of accumulating strength, he viciously stabbed at Li Shuyi's throat!
However, in the next second, Li Shuyi's frozen body flew upside down in a way that defied the laws of physics and swept across the battlefield hundreds of meters away! Finally, she landed lightly beside Bai Xiaowen.
Party skill Pull!
The only remaining skeleton shield-bearer immediately stepped forward and stood in front of Li Shuyi.
Bai Xiaowen's eyes were fixed in a certain direction. "Finally, you can't help but show yourself … I haven't made a move all this time because I was waiting for you to show up!"
Zalen's Spiritual Pierce meant that his position was exposed to Bai Xiaowen's eyes.
Bai Xiaowen waved his hand, and the vampire Keats appeared behind an Egyptian soldier, waving his sharp claws!
No blood splattered out. Suddenly, the Egyptian soldier's skin split open and a figure charged out from within! It was as strange as a python shedding its skin.
This person was Zalen. He had been restraining his Spirit fluctuations all this time, pretending to be an Egyptian soldier and controlling the scorpion swarm to besiege the Pharaoh's elite guards! In this chaotic battlefield, Bai Xiaowen found it difficult to pinpoint Zalen's position.
However, the fluctuations from that Spiritual Pierce were too great, and Zalen couldn't hide it anymore.
"Hmph, hmph, hmph …" Zalen laughed sinisterly. "It's different from last time … My two companions are here. If you dare to obstruct us, only death awaits you!"
With loud rustling sounds, the scorpion swarm regrouped and rapidly crawled in the direction of Bai Xiaowen and Li Shuyi.
Bai Xiaowen narrowed his eyes and once again summoned the Butcher! He used a fixed-point airdrop, and the Butcher landed at the vanguard of the scorpion swarm.
Buzz!
The Decay skill was activated, and a purplish-black poisonous fog filled the area within five steps of the Butcher. These poisonous scorpions that relied on numbers fell one after another, unable to even crawl to the Butcher's feet!
"Stop dreaming … On this battlefield, the ones who will die will definitely be you!"
Bai Xiaowen raised his arm and fired! The instant he fired, he activated Deterrence, causing Bassoon, who was competing with the Wrath Claw and the Skeleton Warriors, Bi Cha, who was chasing after him, and Zalen, who was trying to dodge, to become stiff and unable to move.
This was a small trick. When using Deterrence while firing, the opponent would become stiff for a moment. Even if their reaction was fast, they would still need time to remove the control. Often, they would be unable to dodge Bai Xiaowen's bullet!
Zalen clearly paused for a moment before using a control removal item! He only had time to turn his body sideways, and the bullet pierced his shoulder, causing blood to spurt out.
The Blood Essence Stone's special effect was activated, and this shot was truly painful to the bone. Zalen clutched his shoulder and lowered his body to flee. At the same time, he was secretly rejoicing —
Fortunately, he had decisively used a control removal item!
Even if he had been 0.1 seconds slower, Bai Xiaowen's shot would've hit a vital point, and there would've been no room for discussion. Now that he had hit a non-vital point, he had lost close to a third of his HP even with the armor reducing the damage. The damage was simply terrifying.
After a series of flapping sounds, the vampire Kitts blocked Zalen's path and once again brandished his sharp claws.
It was currently daytime, and as a vampire, Kitts couldn't display his full strength. However, Bai Xiaowen was currently short on summons, so he could only forcefully summon Kitts to make up for the numbers. At the very least, harassing Zalen, who specialized in mental strength, wasn't a problem.
Zalen was clawed twice by Kitts, and his HP was slowly being nibbled away. Anger welled up in his heart. He cursed and suddenly tore open a scroll.
Rays of light flickered, and two monsters that resembled black mucus appeared.
One of the slime monsters waved its tentacles to entangle Keats, while the other slime monster waved its tentacles at Zalen's back, forcibly grabbing an invisible shadow — the Shadow Assassin!
Bai Xiaowen controlled the Shadow Assassin to approach. He was originally prepared to ruthlessly attack Zalen, but Zalen's mental strength was rather high. Under his scan, the Shadow Assassin had nowhere to hide.
Li Shuyi arched his body and activated Barbaric Charge, locking onto Zalen.
In group battles between Awakened ones, the most important targets were those specialized in mental strength — regardless of whether it was a support healer, a damage dealer mage, or a rarely seen summoner type Profession — in short, attacking them at close range was definitely the right choice.
Zalen raised his hand, palm facing upwards, and made a grasping motion at Li Shuyi! Suddenly, Li Shuyi's figure froze, as if there were invisible energy shackles trapping him in place.
This was Zalen's other control skill — Mind Cage! It could imprison him for a long time.
After imprisoning Li Shuyi, Zalen suddenly raised both his hands towards the sky. Dense lightning energy converged above Li Shuyi, followed by dazzling lightning striking down!
Combat skill — Chain Lightning Strike!
Li Shuyi had already used the Green Lotus Seed to dispel his control. As for the Blue grade accessory, the Eclipse Emblem, its priority was too low. It simply couldn't dispel Mind Cage! Taking this Chain Lightning Strike head on would result in him being crippled at best and losing his combat strength. It was also possible for him to be directly struck to death.
Zalen's eyes flashed with a pleased glint. The opponent's team had already used their Pull skill. Li Shuyi had no way of dodging the Chain Lightning Strike!
However, a chain shot over from the side, clanking as it coiled around Li Shuyi's body twice, abruptly dragging him away. The continuous lightning strikes only landed on the ground. Although they were powerful, they were futile since they couldn't hit anyone.
The Butcher had thrown out his meat hook chain in advance to rescue Li Shuyi. When Li Shuyi had been imprisoned, the Butcher had already made preparations to throw the chain. Otherwise, Li Shuyi would've had to take at least two lightning strikes before he was dragged away.
"Dammit … how did he react so quickly? It's as if he completely saw through my movements … "Zalen stared at the calm Bai Xiaowen, feeling discouraged.
It had to be said that Zalen had only heard of Bai Xiaowen's name and knew that he had a giant wolf summoned. As for treating Bai Xiaowen as an imaginary enemy, it was impossible for him to carefully study the information. There were so many awakened ones on Earth. Zalen also didn't know who he would encounter in the next plane of existence. He definitely wouldn't spend this much effort.
Therefore, Bai Xiaowen's innate skill of insight was something that Zalen hadn't expected. When he first encountered Bai Xiaowen, Bai Xiaowen had already seen through his underwear.
At this moment, the lanky Bi Cha suddenly rushed toward Bai Xiaowen! His speed was extremely fast, so much so that several identical running shadows appeared around him, making it difficult to distinguish between the real and the fake.
It was still the same saying. You don't know who to fight in a team battle? You can't go wrong by prioritizing those who specialize in spirit. Between Bai Xiaowen and Li Shuyi, who was the bigger threat? This was a question that didn't require much thought.
When he was within ten steps of Bai Xiaowen, Bi Cha opened his palm and a dark shadow covered Bai Xiaowen.
[Specter Assassin Bi Cha's class skill: Specter Cloak has been activated. Your armor and magic resistance have been reduced by 30 points for 30 seconds!]
[Specter Cloak: Passive. You will automatically go into stealth when not in combat. Take the initiative to cast this skill on an ally (including yourself). You will forcibly become invisible, regardless of whether you are in combat or not. Take the initiative to cast this skill on an enemy. You will reduce the target's armor and magic resistance by (30) points (class level * 5) for 30 seconds.]
From Bi Cha's point of view, he could see an illusory shadow being peeled off from Bai Xiaowen's body before it shattered with a bang. The corners of his mouth curled into a bloodthirsty sneer. He rushed over in two steps and suddenly brandished his blade!
A green light appeared on Bai Xiaowen's palms and transformed into two Scarecrow Daemon Soldiers.
The Scarecrow Daemon Soldiers also received a boost from Bai Xiaowen's spiritual power. The Daemon Soldiers summoned now were much stronger than the Rank 2 and Rank 3 Daemon Soldiers from before.
Bi Cha moved like the wind. When Bai Xiaowen summoned the Scarecrow Daemon Soldiers, he had already used Rend. Under the absolute suppression of Dexterity, Bai Xiaowen only had time to lean to the side. A fountain of blood splashed out. This attack had shaved off over a hundred points of his HP. The damage was extremely high.
Bai Xiaowen endured the pain and retreated. Bi Cha stepped forward with a sinister smile and slashed again! With two slashes, Bai Xiaowen's HP was reduced to half. This was even under the effect of Wrath Claw's Shared Life.
Of course, Bai Xiaowen's HP was not full to begin with. Wrath Claw had also lost some HP when fighting against Bassoon, who specialized in strength.
"Hide? Where are you going to hide? The moment I get close to you, you are already a lamb waiting to be slaughtered! "
Bi Cha completely ignored the Scarecrow Daemon Soldiers' weak attacks. After all, as long as he killed Bai Xiaowen, his summoned creatures would disappear. The wisest thing to do was to go straight for the main commander.
However, when Bi Cha took a step forward to attack, his speed stagnated, and his movements became much slower.
"Hmm? This Scarecrow Daemon actually has the ability to slow down … "
It was a little slower. Bi Cha's blade almost brushed past Bai Xiaowen's body.
"Should I dispel the debuff?" Bi Cha's mind spun. With the Scarecrow Daemon Soldier still around, dispelling the debuff would undoubtedly be at a disadvantage. If he continued to attack Bai Xiaowen, he would definitely be attacked by the Scarecrow Daemon Soldier again, and the troublesome debuff would be applied again.
However, before he could make up his mind, Bai Xiaowen's counterattack had already arrived.
A simple heavy punch blasted towards Bi Cha's abdomen.
"You actually dare to counterattack in close combat!" Bi Cha immediately perked up. He did not even think about defense. Bai Xiaowen specialized in strength, and his strength was at most 20 points. How much damage could he inflict?
Moreover, Bai Xiaowen had the debuff effect of weakening armor and magic resistance. Bi Cha would definitely have a huge advantage if he exchanged damage with Bai Xiaowen!
However, just as Bi Cha swung his dagger, Bai Xiaowen's heavy punch burst into blazing flames.
Bang!
There was a muffled sound like the beating of a drum. Bi Cha's abdomen was in severe pain, and his body suddenly bent over like a large lobster! At the same time, his whole body burst into flames.
Bai Xiaowen took a step forward and attacked. He raised his elbow and dropped it. A series of attacks blasted out and smashed Bi Cha into the dust.
"How is this possible! Three punches and more than half of my health points are gone! My health points are at least 400 points, and my armor is at 30 + … "
Bi Cha was panicking. Just as he was about to flip over and get up, Bai Xiaowen had already crouched down and quickly kicked him lightly. Then, he followed up with two leg sweeps!
Bi Cha's body was kicked into the air, and his health points fell again. It had already fallen below the 100 point mark.
"This monster's strength … is definitely over 40 points! If I don't leave now … I'll definitely die! "
Bi Cha quickly swallowed a piece of food that recovered his health points and pulled his health points back to above 100 points. Fortunately, because Bai Xiaowen's agility was not high enough, he could not follow up with another attack after the leg sweeps. Bi Cha landed on the ground without being pursued. Then, he rolled over and distanced himself from Bai Xiaowen in close combat.
The Scarecrow Daemon Soldier was still in its sluggish state. Bi Cha gritted his teeth and used the item to remove the Daemon Soldier's control. Then, he turned around and fled. He was already scared of Bai Xiaowen.
Bi Cha, who was no longer slowed, ran like a crazy rabbit. In an instant, he had covered a distance of tens of meters. However, Bai Xiaowen had already pulled out the Desert Eagle behind him with a sneer.
Burst mode activated! One shot, two shots …
Although Bi Cha's speed was extremely fast, Bai Xiaowen was using a strafing method. He was using quantity to replace accuracy! Bi Cha's health points continued to fall.
