Verse 65 The darkness before dawn
"Arcane Shot! Arcane Shooting! ”
No matter how he repeated the skill, Chen Yin couldn't feel the flow of arcane energy at all.
Why is this happening?
Why do class skills fail?
Chen Yin dodged the oncoming spear, found a place to hide, summoned the card album of Ra, and hurriedly turned to the page of the career card slot.
I saw that the Paladin card that I had put in before was glowing with a pale yellow light, showing "activated", and behind the Paladin card, the label marked with the Hunter card was in a gray state.
"Uh......" Chen Yin clicked on the label of the hunter's job card.
A faint yellow glow faded away, replaced by a pale green glow emerging from underneath the Paladin's card, followed by the Hunter card becoming "active" and the Paladin's card gray.
"I see." Chen Yin shook his head, drew an arrow and slammed it on his bow, aiming it at a spearman in the distance and using arcane shots.
The familiar arcane energy poured out of Chen Yin's ring and poured into the arrows, Chen Yin loosened the momentum, only to hear a "whoosh", and the arrows with a faint blue light tail slashed through a slightly sinking arc, and the spearman left.
The spear thrower is also a well-known quasi-legend, known for his habit of being topless in combat and his invincibility in throwing spears. However, although Chen Yin has read this guy's information, he has no impression of his name at all.
Anyway, this guy has always been shirtless, and Chen Yin likes this kind of armorless target the most, so Chen Yin chose this damage maker who seems to have very low defense for the first arrow.
Since the spearman's attention was all on Pusiles, it was too late for him to notice the sudden arrow, and he had only time to raise his arm to block it......
"Poof!"
The sharp arrow cut a long wound in his arm, and the remaining inertia stabbed into the chest of the hairy hand. Arcane energy crept into the wound, "sizzling" and corroding his flesh.
"Who!" The spearman jerked his head and looked in the direction where the arrow was flying......
I saw countless arrows smashing down from that direction!
"Rain of arrows!"
"Explosive Shot!"
"Arcane Shot!"
Chen Yin drew his bow and kept shooting, shooting arrow after arrow, which was also mixed with several cards, and in just a few tens of seconds, he projected various attacks of more than 10 soul crystals. Although the damage of each attack is not high, the effect of arcane energy ignoring defense is enough to take out several quasi-legends with around 8 HP.
Seeing the rain of arrows approaching, the would-be legend who threw the spear hurriedly summoned a heavily armed servant to help him fend off the attack.
"Summon: Shield Guard!"
A burly heavily armored soldier wearing full-body plate armor and holding a large shield was summoned and raised his shield to protect the spearman.
Subsequent bows and arrows clanged into the shield guard's body, and the invisible arcane energy quickly eroded his health. As soon as he blocked the arrow, he was hit by an explosive shot, and the shield guard screamed in the explosion, throwing off his shield and falling to the ground, turning into a cold corpse.
"Poof!"
The spear thrower didn't expect the shield guard to be seconds so quickly, and he thought that he could stop for a few minutes, ready another throwing spear, and was about to throw it at Chen Yin, but as soon as he raised the throwing spear, he was shot by two arrows in his chest and head respectively.
"How could it be ......" The spearman staggered, spat out a mouthful of blood, and fell on his back.
Due to the distance, Chen Yin had no way to grasp the life of the spearman, and it was not clear if the guy he shot down was still alive, but he had lost his combat effectiveness, and Chen Yin did not want to waste the arrows, so he turned his head and began to launch a suppressive shot at another quasi-legend.
In Chen Yin's harassing shots, several ranged classes that can inflict a lot of damage were shot by the endless arrows and lost their temper, and after handing over several shield-type skills and minions in a row, they finally retreated helplessly.
Frontally, Pusiles is fighting against the siege of two warriors, a knight, and from time to time he has to dodge pervasive ranged attacks, and if he accidentally takes a few hits, he will have to use another life-saving card.
Just when Pusiles felt that he was about to use the Holy Healing Technique again, he suddenly found that the spears, ice arrows, blow needles, etc. on the opposite side had not come to harass him for a long time, and when he faced the siege of these three melee quasi-legends, he had actually become more comfortable.
In between the attack and defense, Pusiles looked behind the enemy, and saw that the rangers who had thrown all kinds of strange projectiles at him before were far away, and several of them even had bows and arrows stuck in them.
"Reinforcements?" Pusiles was stunned for not remembering that there were quasi-legends who used bows and arrows on the Church's side...... No, let alone what to use, you can't even draw another quasi-legend to relieve the pressure, how can there be reinforcements?
Just as Pusiles was doing his strange work, one of the soldiers besieging him suddenly tilted his head, and an arrow "bell" shot at his helmet and bounced off......
"Charge!"
At the moment when the quasi-legendary warrior was distracted, a huge wild boar suddenly rushed from the side, and the sharp fangs directly pierced the armor on his abdomen, and then the quasi-legendary was hung on the tusks of the wild boar and was pushed out five or six meters away.
"Trample! Dying Blow! ”
The big boar shook his head violently, threw the warrior on the fangs to the ground, and aimed at him is two skills, directly stunning this quasi-legend!
"Hmph."
The boar snorted triumphantly and let out two classic pig calls.
At the same time, the other two quasi-legends were also harassed by bows and arrows, and were stabbed in the stomach by Pusiles. And the fighter also seized the opportunity to slash Pusiles into the shoulder with an axe, stuck in his shoulder blade.
"Die!" Pusiles slammed his sword against the warrior, churning his entrails into a mess, and the other knight next to him tried to help, but a pair of huge claws that fell from the sky almost blinded him, and then a bow and arrow pierced his knee.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, Pusiles drew his sword and stomped on the warrior's head and slashed viciously at his neck!
Separation of head and body.
Blood gushed out of the headless corpse, and Pusiles was already a lame knight.
The original stalemate was reversed in an instant.
"Withdraw!"
Seeing that things were not good, several quasi-legends glanced at each other, pulled the injured and turned around and ran, and Chen Yin's arrows kept chasing after them and shooting fiercely behind them, until everyone disappeared from his field of vision, and then stopped the crazy attack.
"Hey, are you alright?" Chen Yin put away his bow, shook his sour arm, and walked to Pusiles's side.
"You?" Pu Xiles frowned after seeing Chen Yin, "You were from just now...... You didn't go? ”
"Let's go? Where can I go? Chen Yin smiled.
"Although I don't know why His Majesty McCarthy values you so much, in this case, you should live well and repay His Majesty's kindness......"
"Hehe......" In addition to these two words, Chen Yin didn't know what to say, looking at the big axe on his shoulder, he changed the topic and said, "You this, doesn't it matter?" ”
Chen Yin gestured his shoulder.
Pusiles looked at the axe and said with a blank face, "It's nothing. ”
As he spoke, he reached out and grabbed the handle of the axe, and with a "click", he broke off the axe embedded in his collarbone! The snow-white bones flickered, and then large patches of blood poured out of the wound in his shoulder.
This guy is ruthless to others, and even more ruthless to himself!
Chen Yin watched in amazement as Pu Siles treated his wounds roughly.
Pusiles didn't care about Chen Yin's ghostly expression, and just said to the four paladins behind him, "Healing." ”
"Card: Healing."
"Restore 2 health to the specified unit."
The two paladins stepped forward, took out two healing sheets and threw them on Pusiles's body, and as two white lights flashed, Pusiles' wounds healed quickly.
Chen Yin looked at Pusiles' somewhat pale face, it seems that this guy has not overdrawn himself, but then again, if this guy does not overdraft himself, how can he fight with 6 quasi-legends until now?
Shaking his head, not caring about the quasi-legend who broke Chen Yin's perception of paladins, Chen Yin took out a large number of trap cards, looking for a place to bury traps to prepare for the next wave of offensives.
Just as Chen Yin was holding an explosive trap and was thinking about where to put it, Pu Siles suddenly walked over and asked stiffly:
"What are you doing?"
"Dig a hole in the opposite side."
“…… This is not the place you should be. Pusiles grabbed Chen Yin's shoulder with a serious face, but Chen Yin turned around lightly to avoid it.
"Hey! Do? ”
"The battle between quasi-legends is unimaginable for a low-level ring holder like you......" Pusileth also tried to persuade him.
"Daddy asked me to help you, I don't believe I asked with a communication card." Chen Yin lowered his head and continued to set up the trap, "Isn't it a quasi-legend, it's not that I haven't killed it, for example, the flame tyrant who almost made you cry was not slaughtered by me, cut." ”
"You...... Huh, it's you!? Pusiles was stunned, "You are the ...... guarding over there"
"yes? Or else? ”
“…… You only have 5 stars!? Pu Xiles looked at Chen Yin incredulously.
Chen Yin shrugged, found a few places that were not so conspicuous but suitable for long-range attacks, and threw down the freezing trap.
"I always thought you were a veteran quasi-legend."
"I'm sorry to disappoint you."
"......" Pu Xiles glanced at Chen Yin deeply, didn't say anything, just held the sword, quietly leaned on the broken pillar and closed his eyes to recuperate.
After Chen Yin laid the trap, he summoned the bald eagle and the wild boar back to his side, and at the same time released the movement of the lark to reconnoiter the distant place.
"You!" Pusiles felt the fluctuation of his soul power, and when he opened his eyes, he saw a wild boar lying on Chen Yin's left, a bald eagle on his right, and a small bird-shaped servant was released in his hand, and his eyes suddenly widened, and his mouth was long enough to swallow an egg.
"What's wrong with me?" Chen Yin looked at Pu Xiles inexplicably.
"You summoned 3 minions! How do you suppress their will!? ”
"Three? No, it's four. I've left a servant for my father. ”
......The expression on Pusiles' face was wonderful, and he couldn't stop talking, but he finally sighed and muttered in a low voice: "Level 5 summons 4 minions...... It's just a monster. ”
"What? Is it rare to summon multiple minions? Chen Yin heard him talking to himself.
"Of course! Why did you think that quasi-legend who had escaped the blood mist before only summoned 3!? He himself is known for being manipulative and suppressive! Even he can only control 3 minions at the same time! ”
"Oh yes." Chen Yin said lightly, "I think it's very normal." ”
"You...... Hum. Pusiles seemed to have been struck and turned his head with a look of frustration.
"Inexplicable...... Chen Yin scratched his head, indicating that he didn't understand the thoughts of you aliens.
……
As the inspector of the Ring Bearers' Guild, Mutsu had fought Chen Yin and the others on the Blood Mist side before, and he was also a senior member of the first team of the Ring Bearers' Guild. He had been following Blonsos until the offensive had stopped, and then he had been assigned.
"What's the situation!? Why step back? The pale green runes on Mutsu's face were dark, and those who knew him well would know that when these strange symbols appeared on his face, it was when he was extremely emotional.
"Over there...... Reinforcements have arrived, Michinoku-sama, we have already lost 2 of our companions, and Bruno and Jack Ironhoof, who threw spears, were also seriously wounded......"
"Get 4 killed by a 5-star hunter and a 7-star paladin...... Shame on yourselves. Mutsu's gaze slowly swept over each of them from the two seriously injured men, paying particular attention to their injuries.
"And it's all over the body." Mutsu shook his head, drew his weapon, and walked towards the Tower of Knowledge without looking back.
His voice came from afar: "Either break the Tower of Knowledge in one go, or wait for the Holy See's reinforcements to arrive and kill everyone, the way, you have to choose for yourself." ”
"......" The quasi-legends were silent for a long time, and it wasn't until Mutsu's back was about to disappear that someone stood up.
He's right, that's what we should think of when we're on the opposite side of the church...... There is no way back. ”
"yes......"
The silence was followed by an eruption, and all the would-be legends who could still move followed behind Mutsu and attacked the Tower of Knowledge again.
……
"Boom! Rumble! ”
The sound of the explosion trap kept ringing, but Mutsu, who was in the midst of the fire, was not affected in the slightest.
"Come on! I'm the law is the killer Michinoku! Mutsu was covered in a glowing green light, and rushed towards Chen Yin with his long sword held high.
"Your opponent is me! Mutsu! Pusiles stood in front of Chen Yin.
Seeing that Mutsu was stopped, Chen Yin breathed a sigh of relief, and the magic immunity effect made Mutsu completely uncontrollable and unharmed, which made Chen Yin have no choice but to summon servants to be cannon fodder.
Pusiles desperately delayed the footsteps of the landing O.
Chen Yin desperately harassed several other quasi-legends when they attacked Pusiles, and when their target turned to him, he used a trap to go around with them, and for a while, the battle entered a stalemate again, and everyone gritted their teeth and persisted.
