Chapter 470: Appearance of Red Lotus Once Again
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
“You guys…” Lin Jie was moved. He was too impulsive to have come to Frozen Tundra alone. Not only did Lin Jie truly understand the essence of Berserker’s 100 Consecutive Strikes, but he had also obtained the strongest skill of the Munjo Ogre Prince, Devour. Thus, his confidence had gone over the roof, and the feelings, which he had bottled up for so long, finally exploded. Therefore, he had rushed here alone.
Though the fact that he did grasp the essence of Berserker’s 100 Consecutive Strikes and with Devour, coupled with the effects of his Death Rage, it was still possible for him to single-handedly face thousands of people!
However, what he did not expect was that the two Bandits Tomorrow Night and Yesterday Morning to actually appear. Lin Jie had not discovered them, and they had interrupted his skill.
If it were not for Savage Blade that had arrived on time, most likely, he would need to tear another teleportation scroll and prepare to escape again.
“Leave the talking for later, let’s settle these two Bandits first!” Domestic Fat Cattle smiled gleefully. His robe swayed behind him even without wind and shone brightly under the sun, his aura was impressive. He waved the Dark Gold staff in his hands and shouted in a deep voice, “Night, let’s show the results of our hard work these few days, Fiery Ice Dual Dragon, fusion!”
Dejected Night’s lip twitched, and he reluctantly prepared the skill fusion with Fat Cattle with a black face. Only after Fat Cattle waved his staff to release the skill did he call out the name of the skill, Frostfire Arrow!
The Frostfire Arrow was different from Mages’ normal skills. It needed a Fire Mage and an Ice Mage to be able to release it. Also, there was a “completion” status where the higher their chemistry, the higher the “completion” of the skill. Thus, the degree of the Frostfire Arrow formed would be more complete, resulting in the skill being more powerful.
Fire and ice appeared in each of their hands, respectively, before resonating with each other and fusing together. In an instant, scorching hot icicles were shot out to the surroundings, it was obvious that they were not very familiar with the usage of Frostfire Arrow.
Even so, Tomorrow Night and Yesterday Morning, who had activated Forced Invisibility after successfully ambushing Lin Jie, reappeared. Even icicles were formed on their Leather Armors, and there were raging flames burning them too, they were in a pathetic state.
“Streamline Step!”
“Vanishing Step!”
The two Bandits instantly moved their feet in preparation to escape once they realized they had been surrounded.
Tomorrow Night was extremely skillful with using the Vanishing Step, and because of the heated battle, Lin Jie did not have the time to concentrate and observe the surroundings so they could only let Tomorrow Night escape. However, Yesterday Morning, who was not as familiar with his step, was far weaker than Tomorrow Night. Hence, he was bound by the web created by Lost Camel’s pet spider. In desperation, he raised his machete and used Combo Attack against the melee-job Mixed Breathless!
Mixed Breathless smiled arrogantly as he enveloped his shield with a layer of light, blocking consecutively! Yesterday Morning could not deal any damage with such precise blocking, then immediately after was consecutive Rebel’s Fight as Mixed Breathless was ready to kill Yesterday Morning!
Just at that moment, Red Lotuses descended from the sky! It was Baili Xuanyuan, who had consumed all his Ability Points at once and used the Needfire Red Lotus to attack.
‘I can’t kill Lone Wolf, but killing you guys would be a piece of cake!’ In that instant, a wave of 700+ damage values popped up, and the health points of Savage Blade’s members from decreased rapidly!
Suddenly, Holy Light shone upon them!
One could only see Bu Yi, who was wearing a milky white slim-fit robe, praying devoutly by holding the staff with both hands. Then waves of Holy Light were shot out, every burst of light regen 1,000+ health points for all members!
Ding~
—Battle prompt message: Your teammate, Bu Yi, has used the skill [Holy Nova]. It recovers Health Points for allies in a 35-yard radius 4 times, 1,029 points are recovered each time!
“Lin Jie…” Bu Yi looked at Lin Jie and smiled, habitually casting Power Word Shield on Lin Jie.
“Brothers, let’s slaughter the Xuanyuan Alliance!” Lin Jie’s health points had already recovered back to the maximum under Bu Yi’s healing.
Meanwhile, Savage Blade’s improvement during these 10+ days was far beyond his expectation! Each and every one of them had completed the Job-Advancement Mission and successfully obtained Dark Gold Mystic Skill Books. They also each had their miraculous encounters under Lin Jie’s guidance, which increased their strength greatly!
Also, the gathering of the loyal army of Brotherhood members was also gradually finished. These players would be the Brotherhood’s mainstay. Steel Allies also showed their brotherhood by not abandoning them, so from now on, the Steel Allies would stand together with the Brotherhood, helping each other out.
Now, it was time to assert dominance! It was time to suppress Baili Xuanyuan’s arrogance and announce who was the City of Light’s real master!
With a command, Lin Jie jumped down and charged into the crowd with his sword. He used Army Obliteration to strike four times, each slash was filled with sharp Wind Rider Blade Aura. Wherever the Blade Aura passed, wails and screams could be heard!
Lin Jie aimed Scorching Sun and Baili Xuanyuan as his targets once again and charged towards them. As the saying went, “Destroy the leader and the gang will collapse!”
“Sh*t, f*ck it!” Baili Xuanyuan gritted his teeth loudly as if he had made a difficult decision. Finally, an inconspicuous potion appeared in his palm. It had a delicate fragrance like that of a lotus and seemed to be some miraculous potion.
[Red Lotus Potion]!
It was the exclusive potion of Red Lotus Knights! It was the only item that could recover the Red Lotus Knight’s Ability Points in an instant in the whole The New Age.
Previously, when Baili Xuanyuan had used money to pass the mission, he had triggered a hidden reward where he had a chance to use money to buy the Red Lotus Potion, and only a single bottle! The Red Lotus Knight Potion was split into different grades, the cheapest could recover 100 Ability points and cost 50 gold coins. Meanwhile, that bottle in Baili Xuanyuan’s hands could recover 3,000 Ability Points and cost 10,000 gold coins!
That’s right, 10,000 gold coins!
Which maniac would be willing to spend 10,000 gold coins to buy a potion to recover Ability Points? Baili Xuanyuan, of course!
The potion he was holding now was the item that could instantly recover 3,000 Ability Points and cost as high as 10,000 gold coins. In the period where he had become a Red Lotus Knight, he finally understood the preciousness of Ability Points and also understood how rare that potion was—it was something that could not even be bought with money.
However, he had to drink it now!
Baili Xuanyuan raised his head and gulped down the potion. The instant the potion entered his mouth, a small Red Lotus bloomed on his palm, and his Ability Points were increased to the fearsome amount of 3,000! Previously, Baili Xuanyuan had broken through Lin Jie’s Dark Chaotic Hole and even instakilled many people with 3,000 Ability Points. It looked as if such a scene was about to be reenacted!
“Protective Red Lotus, Needfire Red Lotus! Scorching Sun, cooperate with me and kill him!”
After Baili Xuanyuan’s order, in that instant, Protective Red Lotuses, which were pitch black and spinning in the reverse direction, bloomed around Baili Xuanyuan. He was fearful of Lin Jie’s high-damage output, so he had to protect himself first!
Immediately after, a huge Needfire Red Lotus exploded in the crowd, it was the enhanced version of the Needfire Red Lotus, which needed 1,000 Ability Points! What was more frightening was that as the skill was activated, the other Needfire Red Lotuses’ damage values were instantly raised by 350%!
“Codename Lone Wolf, I have 100 Protective Red Lotuses here, and each of them absorbs 3,000 points of damage. I would like to see how you try to kill me! I will let you see with your own eyes how your team is destroyed!” said Baili Xuanyuan as he laughed viciously. He waved his hand down with his palm facing downwards, and countless Needfire Red Lotuses released a destructive aura. As though it was the eruption of a volcano or the end of the world, they crazily surged towards Lin Jie.
Swoosh—
Swoosh—
Just at that moment, a trembling sound could be heard. Not from the explosion of the Needfire Red Lotus, but from… within Lin Jie! It was as if his muscles were strengthened in that instant, while his veins popped out—it was a frightening scene! Lin Jie’s hand was like that of a giant, majestic, but fearsome.
What was most obvious was his Broken Blade, after it was enhanced with the dark blade, it was no longer dull and rusty. Although it looked solemn and luxurious, it was extremely restrained as it did not shine like other weapons.
However, now, it was as if Broken Blade had absorbed the sky, sea, and even the ground, and it shone with a faint light. That carving of the ground was even lifelike, and it was as if it had become alive. One could only hear the sound of a longsword being unsheathed and Broken Blade had actually become a blood-red broadsword that was three meters long and two meters wide, it looked just like a huge ruler.
“Berserker’s… 100 Consecutive Strikes!”
Lin Jie’s voice trembled slightly, he could feel that his whole body was filled with strength, he only wanted to find a place to unleash it all or he would die from trying to hold back his energy! Even his neck was stuffed full with energy, which even made him unable to speak!
That huge blood-red broadsword was as light as a feather when being used with such strength. With a thrust and pull, Lin Jie pierced his Broken Blade vigorously into the mass of Protective Red Lotuses. Thick viscous blood flowed out from within and directly corroded the defense of the Protective Red Lotuses, weakening them. Critical Hits of 3,000+ damage points were even dealt and directly destroyed the Protective Red Lotuses!
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Before the afterimages of the Red Lotuses that were sliced by the Broken Blade disappeared, explosion sounds could be heard continuously. In the blink of an eye, Lin Jie had already moved a few steps away, and with 10 swings of his Broken Blade, he had destroyed 10 Red Lotuses! Lin Jie’s every attack thrust straight in the center of the Red Lotuses, destroying them in one shot. These Protective Red Lotuses, which could absorb 3,000 points of damage, were like paper, they could not even block one strike from Lin Jie.
As the Protective Red Lotuses disappeared, blood droplets, which filled the sky, entered Lin Jie’s body.
“Shield Specialists activate Shield Guard! Needfire Red Lotuses, all explode!” Baili Xuanyuan glared at Lin Jie, who was in Enraged Mode, and summoned all the Shield Specialists. A total of 100 people were gathered in front of him. He then channeled Needfire Red Lotuses, wanting to instakill Lin Jie!
A human wall built by 100 Shield Specialists! What did that mean? An impregnable fortress!
However, in the next second, they experienced how fearsome Lin Jie was!
Lin Jie, who had activated Berserker’s 100 Consecutive Strikes, directly knocked those Shield Specialists away with just one strike of Blade Aura! Meanwhile, at the same time, his Berserker’s 100 Consecutive Strikes finally reached another stage. Lin Jie leaped up high, and the afterimages of the bloody sword combined into one, forming an illusion of a huge bloody sword that slashed down towards Baili Xuanyuan!
Baili Xuanyuan shouted out loudly in surprise and turned all his remaining Ability Points into Protective Red Lotuses to protect him! How formidable was the Protective Red Lotus, which was summoned with 1,000+ Ability Points? It could block the attacks of 100 people and was the strongest defense!
Slice—
In the next second, Broken Blade pierced through the Protective Red Lotus! That humongous Protective Red Lotus, which was said to be able to protect one from everything, was actually torn apart by Broken Blade directly like tofu!
