MMORPG: The Elementalist

Chapter 323: Dark Battle!

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

With Black Rock’s Petrify and Qin Ruo’s multiple Frostburst, the battle between the four players and Demon Faction changed in their favor as any hope the opponents had fell apart. Fateless’s merciless elimination of Brother Kai meant that the Demon Faction players’ last hope was gone and the remaining survivors of the battle instantly lost all of their fighting spirit!

The battle on the other end was also over rather promptly.

A burst of flames exploded in front of Steel Dude and Subjugator, momentarily causing them to be gone from the Demon Faction party’s sight. The opponent party had a feeling that they were being monitored from behind this sudden explosion. Their well executed long-ranged attacks became briefly thwarted...

The two warriors’ impeccable coordination that followed instilled such fear in the rest of the people’s hearts.

The moment the clustered flame attack effects dissipated, Steel Dude and Subjugator charged forward, within fifteen meters of the Demon Faction players.

Collision!

Following the enemies’ attempt at a powerful single magic cohesion attack, Steel Dude took the lead and drew the focus of the long-ranged Class attackers’ firepower. It was as if there was an electric charge between the two of them as their movements were agile and perfectly coordinated, successfully avoiding the enemies’ long-ranged attacks.

These ungodly movements and flawless rapport shown by the two warriors were absolutely unbelievable, leaving the opponents flabbergasted.

‘What the hell! What kind of power is this?’

With the failure of the long-ranged attacks, the group of Elementalists did not seem to have any Magic Scrolls left, knowing their imminent defeat they were ready to withdraw from the battle...

Little did they know, this was all within the plan of the two dangerous and ferocious men.

They were both clan Field Commanders, there was no denying they were extremely experienced in battling with other players and to them everyone they met were all enemies in their eyes. Besides, they received a good number of supplies from their party, which included plenty of potions, With all these perks on their side, there was no way they were afraid of the ten-plus Demon Faction players right in front of them.

Kill!

The two charged forward at the same time!

This was without a doubt an extremely one-sided battle.

From afar, a few pairs of eyes hidden behind a tomb stared intensely at both the two ongoing battles and Violet Orchid’s group of people who stood their ground while being highly vigilant. Someone then whispered into the dark, “Brother Tiger Cub, why aren’t we doing something?”

The person who spoke looked questioningly at the man who was packed with legendary experience.

It was as if the latter did not hear what was asked as he continued to monitor the two ongoing battlefields. A touch of impatience and disdain that went by unnoticed flashed through his eyes. With the relentless questioning of those around him, he closed his eyes ever so slightly and slowly said, “There is no chance for us to do anything.”

He said it in a seemingly dull tone, yet it carried with it a chilling callousness.

The Demon Faction players who were oblivious that Tiger Cub was already impatient carried on asking, “Wasn’t just now a perfect chance? The two warriors were all alone without the support of their party. Those damn arrogant bastards, if you were to step out and join the battle they would surely not be able to notice you.”

“Yeah, with your skills, you’d definitely take them down easily. Tsk, look at those Dark Gold equipment.”

“Stop going on about Dark Gold equipment, Brother Tiger Cub is here solely for the Radiant Priest. We just need to eliminate the two warriors. With them gone, their other members will have no chance to confront the Boss guarding the warp portal. Wouldn’t our chances of securing it be even higher?”

After listening to the incessant and unwanted suggestions given by the few, Tiger Cub gritted his teeth without showing any hints of annoyance and coldly remarked,

“Shut the hell up!”These few guys who he invited to join the party at the last minute were being such a nuisance, Tiger Cub held himself back from slaughtering them right there and then.

Why was Violet Orchid’s party not making any moves? Why did they only send out a few warriors and Elementalists for this kind of disastrous battle? Even the Amethyst Orc was placed right next to Violet Orchid.

Was it not obvious that it was protecting Violet Orchid?

With the enemy on alert, there was no way Tiger Cub was stupid enough to attempt a sneak attack!

Besides, that Ignis Swordmaster and Bauhinia Clan’s Steel Dude were of Field Commander level, they were surely no easy opponents. Also, they were almost always stuck together when battling. No matter how confident he was of himself, Tiger Cub knew better than to use a Bandit Class character to challenge two warriors of Field Commander level.

With that said, his true trepidation did not come from the two warriors but the other three!

The first one, Radiant Priest Violet Orchid, was a distinctly smart, decisive and daring female player. With just a group of normal players in her party, they were able to defend themselves successfully against his ambush twice, which gave them enough time for reinforcements to arrive. Even though her combat power was not strong, she had an extraordinary ability as a commander, adept grasp of timing, and strategically made decisions that made her feared by all. Not only that, the current party under Violet Orchid was not a party he could easily take down but had at least five Field Commander level players...

He did not want to initiate a siege for a period of more than two hours just to end up losing the battle with this final chance they had due to any mistakes on their end. That would also mean losing to a female.

The second one who made Tiger Cub feel dread was that Bandit who slew the Field Commander level Zephyr Swordmaster in the blink of an eye...

He had this nagging feeling but he did not know why. All he knew was the guy gave off an extremely dangerous vibe.

Last but not least, the owner of the Amethyst Orc.

He was a player who had the ability to summon a Tier 5 Miniboss. Not long ago, he was only a Level 40 newbie who had just stepped onto the Mythical Battlefield. Now, he had secretly gained the power and ability to be able to match a Field Commander, it was truly a rapid and remarkable growth.

However, Qin Ruo was not that big of a threat...

Even though he did not know how Qin Ruo managed to obtain an Amethyst Orc Sealed Core, but he knew that monsters summoned from Sealed Cores had a time limit. Once the Amethyst Orc disappeared, the threat that came with Qin Ruo would naturally disappear as well.

By then... Hmph!

Tiger Cub glanced at the Demon Faction players who were now dead silent, he thought to himself, ‘As for these cannon fodder idiots, they should be of some use in the next battle, further delaying their elimination of the Tier 5 Boss.’

***

From afar, although the battles on both sides had ended, Violet Orchid’s Angel Faction party members were still very cautiously monitoring their surroundings, not even daring to slack off one bit.

They knew that of those who were watching them, there were not only the two Demon Faction parties who were being tortured mercilessly... surely Tiger Cub was following right behind them. If they saw even a small opening, that guy would definitely not miss the chance of slaying them off from behind!

Only when the Field Commander level champions returned to their party, did the feeling of fear and restlessness slowly ebb away.

The first few who returned were Qin Ruo, Black Rock, and Snowleaf. With Fateless killing off the Zephyr Swordmaster, the despaired archer was certainly no match for him. This made wrapping up the battle an easy task.

On the other hand, Subjugator and Steel Dude had a bit of a problem...

They were delayed for half an hour before they returned to the group.

The moment they came back, Steel Dude furiously cursed aloud, “Shit! That bastard, I waited half a day for him but he didn’t appear, damn it!”

“...”

Several people in the party glanced at each other, clueless as to who he was referring to.

“If it were so easy to lure him out, would he still be known as the renowned Savage Cub?” Violet Orchid said, clearing the confusion among the members. With her reply, Steel Dude immediately felt deflated.

She was right...

The thug Savage Cub was notorious for hiding in places where people could not detect, only when he was ready to attack, he would appear from the most unexpected places. When he did, it would have been from a position the opponents were the most vulnerable, dealing a death blow and killing them off.

“Alright alright, putting Savage Cub aside, I won the battle just now so all of you will have to tell me a secret... Subjugator, it’s your turn.”

Qin Ruo grinned widely and chortled, as he saw the helpless and troubled look on everyone’s faces. All of a sudden, he felt that Black Rock’s suggestion was actually not too bad afterall.

***

Subjugator despondently put away his weapon, massaged his swollen temples and replied, “Fine, my first secret is what all of you should have seen just now, Fire Blast. It does not deal any specific damage but it can be used to hide myself. So when I am in combat with long-ranged Classes, I can take in one less round of damage.”

“What the hell, how is that even considered a secret?”

Black Rock suddenly felt he was at a loss—he even revealed his Dark Gold ring while Subjugator only revealed such a small insignificant skill...

Subjugator smiled wryly.

“Do you think everyone is as crazy as you? Not everyone has a Dark Gold accessory you know. I, on the other hand, only have one Gold accessory.” He started complaining upon hearing Black Rock’s remark.

“...”

“Alright fine, I’ll let that one slide, what about the next one?”

“Give me some time to think about it. Judge why don’t you go first?”

Judge did not fuss about the sequence and nodded his head. He then took out a Dark Gold great shield from his backpack and said, “It’s a Spellbreaker Shield, Physical Defense 80, Magic Defense 30, Negative Attack Resistance increased by 20%, Magic Effects time reduced by 50%. Additional Effect, Spellbreaker Guard: Dual Defenses within three seconds, Immune to all negative effects. Weakness, Immobility when guarding, long cooldown.”

“Damn it Judge, don’t play me a fool, you have already told me about this secret before.” Black Rock lamented loudly.

“Next up... Fateless?” Judge played dumb and pretended he did not hear what Black Rock said.
