Volume IV Chapter 74 Hostages
"Oh no, it's stalling for time!"
Almost as soon as they found out the energy level of the 'Dome', Weiss and the others understood the situation. Being able to become a combat squad against the Dark Followers is a leader in both strength and intelligence. Even if the momentary anger affected his thinking, after this period of calm fighting, he had already recovered.
At first, Weiss and the others suspected that Shi Leiyin was under the influence of darkness. At the beginning of Shi Leiyin's 'erosion' of the two institutional companions, Weiss and the others also thought that Shi Leiyin was in the body of the two, and felt that this combination was actually connected by Shi Leiyin's ability.
But after the battle, the strength exerted by the combination did not exceed the upper limit of the energy of the two, which aroused the suspicion of Weiss and the others. Therefore, after the energy level of the 'Dome' was detected, combined with the performance of the combination during the offensive and defensive periods, they immediately thought that the combination was just an existence released by the other party to attract attention, and the real body should be within the 'Dome'. Most likely a nascent Dark Follower.
From the information of the Akers, it can be known that the Dark Followers were relatively weak before they were formed, and ordinary powerhouses of the six-mang balance level were able to defeat them one-on-one, but once they fully grasped the control of their bodies, they became extremely terrifying when they unleashed their exclusive powers. Almost all of the Six-Ray Balances have had members lost when the Dark Followers appeared.
Although Weiss has the combat power of the six-mang balanced level, he does not have this title, and his actual strength is slightly weaker, but with the support of his teammates, the strength that these people can exert is actually better than that of a six-mang balanced member.
Based on the fact that the opponent needs to use the combination to attract attention, Weiss quickly judged that the enemy in the 'Dome' may not only be weak at this time, but also have a very low defense. The only thing to worry about is where the other party has come.
The formation of the Dark Followers is almost unstoppable, and the only thing that can be done is to deal a large amount of damage to it before it is fully formed, forcing it to choose to recover from its injuries rather than attack first. In the face of Shi Leiyin, a 'suspected' dark follower who is about to take shape, what Wei Si and the others need to do is actually grasp the scale of the attack, and quickly withdraw after giving a certain amount of damage to avoid being hurt by the moment it is formed.
Without communication, all the members of Axes present turned their attacks to the 'Dome' almost at the same time. Two of the elves hid directly behind their shields and began to chant area magic.
The reaction of the Axes people was very quick and decisive, but the combination, or Shi Leiyin's reaction was not slow.
After noticing that his plan to use the combination to attract attention and buy time for himself was discovered, Shi Leiyin did not hesitate to use the backup plan.
The deliberately reserved head positions of the two Institutional Species Axes were directly moved by Shi Leiyin to the sides of the upper body of the combination. Increasing the supply of energy will stimulate their consciousness. Then, very maliciously, they put their heads in front of the huge lightsaber attack that Weiss unleashed.
Although it was malicious, Shi Leiyin actually didn't intend to really let the two Institutional Akers die under the attack of his own people. At the position of the two of them, Shi Leiyin superimposed three layers of energy shields, even if Wei Si used the Photon Giant Sword to continuously slash, there would be no problem.
However, because the color of Shi Leiyin's energy shield was black, after superimposing, it seemed that the heads of the two looked as if they were shrouded in dark energy, and with the surprise of waking up suddenly with the lightsaber, the expressions of the two instantly became indescribably hideous and terrifying.
"Ray, Tosh!" Wess didn't know that Shrayin was only trying to scare them into delaying any longer. Seeing that the sweeping slash he launched with all his strength was about to cut off the life of the partner he wanted to rescue, Weiss could only overwhelm the hilt of his sword with all the strength of his body, turning the Photon Greatsword from a sweep into a pick-up attack into the air. As the Photon Greatsword slashed into the sky as it grazed the shield of the combination, the Lightsaber, which was overloaded by the activation of the Photon Greatsword, emitted an overloaded buzzing sound, and the entire sword exploded into a pile of splinters.
Almost at the same time, the two elves who tried to use the powerful area magic attack also exploded with their rods of light. The formation of magic that had been deliberately accelerated in order to avoid being hit by chanting the incantation for too long now led to the fact that the magic was on the verge of being released when it was tried to stop. In desperation, he could only forcibly explode the completed magic inside the light crystal at the top of the light staff, but the light crystal was scrapped along with the entire light staff was already the best result.
In the end, only the Akers who attacked with the light gun completed their attack. As an institutional species, he has enough accuracy and adaptability, and from the very beginning, he took into account the relationship between the combination and interception, and deliberately chose the opposite position to Weiss and the others to attack the 'Dome'. When the attacks of Weiss and the others were blocked by the combination and the 'hostage', his photon rapid fire hit the 'Dome' where Shi Leiyin was
And then, there was no more.
Although under Shi Leiyin's absorption, the shell of the 'Dome' has become extremely weak. But also because of Shi Leiyin's absorption, the pure energy attack of the light bullet was absorbed as an energy supplement when it hit the 'Dome'. In fact, if Weiss's Photon Greatsword and the magic of the elves didn't stop, they wouldn't have done much damage to the Dome. The Dome in this state is only able to deal a certain amount of damage if it relies purely on physical attacks inflicted by mass.
In the Axes' squad, only the assassin-like human attack with the two-handed sword could deal enough physical damage. But again, knowing this, Shi Leiyin controlled the combination to treat him as the main target. The two-handed cannon in the upper body almost kept attacking the great sword assassin, so that he could not only launch an attack, but with the shields of several mechoid races, he was able to avoid all attacks.
The use of hostages brought the battle to an eerie standstill. The combination did not dare to leave the area around the 'Dome', as everyone's attack targets turned to the 'Dome'. Weiss and the others did not dare to attack at will, because the combination would definitely give priority to using the hostage's head as a shield.
The only thing in motion is the two-handed cannon of the great sword assassin and the combination, perhaps because Shi Leiyin's body has entered a critical period, and the order is a little inflexible, even if the two sides are close to the battle, the two-handed cannon on the upper body still does not stop attacking, and there is no idea of changing the target at all, and it is locked on the great sword assassin.
