Chapter 435: Dragon Slaying (2)

Name: Dragon Slave

Skill Card Property: Active, one-time use

Skill Type: Sorcery

Effect: Using the power of the red-eyed demon and deliver a blow that could devastate an entire city

Exhaust: 50 percent of maximum Life Points and all Sorcery points (Needs to channel before using the skill)

Learning Requirement: General Ability A, Sorcery unlocked.

Remark: One of the most powerful black magic. Created by ancient sage Rei Magnus. The name came from the skill which fell a dragon.

Yama got this skill in a scroll. Since it was a one-time use skill, no one knew what it would unleash. But from the description of the skill and the source material, the description earth-shattering wouldn’t be too wrong for it. Before the final, the four already decided to see Dragon Slave as their final Hail Mary. So they had come up with various tactic in conjunction with the preparation required to use the skill. For example, if two of them were already dead and the remaining enemy was more than two and their location was unknown, then… Yama would use this skill to unleash an indiscriminatory attack. For another example, if the four were all alive, but were faced with super strong energy, under that circumstance, there were two tactics: one, the three would do everything they could to buy time for Yama to channel the skill; and two, the method that they employed, figure out a way to knock the enemy into a far location where they could not avoid (like in mid air) and then slaughter them with Dragon Slave.

Of these tactics, the latter was more difficult. It required the cooperation of many skills and the timing. Of course, for professional players, it was not a problem, they only needed some practicing…

Therefore, we were greeted with this sight… The flawless cooperation between the three from Brahman, and they successfully knocked the conceited Drake into the air.

“Darkness darker than dusk, red brighter than blood, lost in the river of time, I call upon thy name to swear into the darkness…” As the spell was channelled, the voice sung like a song, causing the energy to ripple. Yama raised her hands before her and an orange-red energy ball started to gather. A whirlpool of energy swirled around her and lifted up her purple hair. Her face that was hidden behind the long bangs was shown.

At the same time, what Drake saw on the data menu was…

Tactic Option:

–???

Survival Probability:

–32 percent… 30 percent… 28 percent…

“You have to be kidding… It can’t analyse a tactical counter…” This was the first time Drake showed an expression of panic. Under the effect of Null-G Contact, the control he had over his body was failing and the impact from the Copper Fist turned into a pushing force, causing him to continue to rise in the air. Currently Drake was not around any cover that he could use and nothing he could jump or bounce off of. Even though he could still move to a certain degree, with Dragon Slave’s aoe range, a movement less than 500 metres was pointless.

“What to do… what to do!” Drake repeated this question. His face blanched and his earlier serenity disappeared without a trace. Because… he had sensed ‘fear’ for the first time. Actually D1-Drake was not a normal Anomaly, he should be called another name—an “Original”.

Different from the other Anomalies which was formed from a glitch in the system, Drake was a unique product created by one of the three leaders of Origin, Link. From the moment he was born, he was level 1. So Drake had never gone through the experience normal Anomaly did. He was not chased after by GMs in scenarios; he did not struggle at the edge of death; he did not know what the data analysis looked like for a level 4 anomaly and he did not understand what ‘helpless’ felt like…

Drake had never fought an enemy whose threat level which was higher than ‘medium’. And his tactical option was never empty. To put it simply, D1-Drake who was born powerful never had any experience fighting in a weakened state. He was used to following the tactical option in the data analysis and used his strength to streamroll over his opponent. When all these conditions failed, he was like a soldier who lost the knowledge to use his firearm… Even when facing a native armed with a spear, he’d be defenceless.

“Remove everything futile that block before thy way, using thy power to bless it with destruction…”

Finally… the channelling was reaching its end.

“Dragon Slave!” Yama finished the spell and pushed her hands forward. At that moment, time seemed to freeze as the magical energy cut through the dimension. The skill manifested form the power of the demon god, blasted at the sky towards the flustered D1-Drake.

Perhaps it was a coincidence, or it was destiny… like many epic tales… the name D1-Drake seemed to foretell the destruction by the skill dragon slave.

In the sky, an energy bright as sun exploded. A giant ball like energy expanded… and destroyed everything in its range. The perfect product of Origin… was thus consumed by a level A skill.

…

“What the… this is just ridiculous.” On the other side of the city, the three masters of Jiang Hu looked at the explosion in the sky and couldn’t help but gasp. After the trio saw how the Leader of Demons one shot Understanding Death at the blood lake, they decided to run the opposite direction from the monster. Thus, they were currently the batch of player the furthest from the Blast Tunnel.

“This scenario is far more dangerous than we thought…” Smiling Divine Question commented, “First there was the sound blast, then the white beam, and now… who knows what that is… in any case, these are all skills far beyond the capability of a normal player. If anyone was hit directly, the chance of survival is zero.”

“Isn’t that a good thing?” Bladeless Swordsman who was normally reticent added.

“Hah…” Flashes of Sword chuckled. “Perhaps that mean… Phantom Dawn has been taken care of by someone else?”

“Ah.” Smiling Divine Question added, “Indeed. If possible, I do not wish to fight that kid.”

“Hey, hey… And I was kind enough to come and get you guys…” Suddenly a voice said. The three’s faces shifted. They turned and assumed their position. They shielded each other’s back to look for the source of the voice.

“At the very least, you are well-known expert players…” Phantom Dawn sauntered out from a street corner. “Don’t you have that urge ‘to fight enemy stronger than yourself to get stronger during the process’?”

“Even though it pains me to say it…” Flashes of Sword’s hand reached his blade. “But I have to admit… you are not on the same level as we are…” One day in May, the trio ran into Phantom Dawn in a Killing Game. The result…was plain. After that battle, the three’s common sense was completely shattered and their pride as professional players were trampled own and they turned it into a fuel to work harder and improve themselves. But… since they knew the gap between them, they believed with their current power, they still couldn’t win this kid before them.

“Tsk… such cowards.” Another voice said. Flashes of Sword recognized the voice immediately and his face turned confused. Soon Not a Scaredy Cat and Zen Dream walked out from behind Phantom Dawn. Not a Scaredy Cat rolled her eyes derisively at the bosses of her guild and pouted, “What is there to be so scared of? Looks, he’s even shorter than I am.”

“What does that have to do with my height?” Phantom Dawn turned back to roar.

“ha ha…” Zen Dream walked past Phantom Dawn, with the cigarette on his lips, he looked down on his guild mate and chuckled, “Don’t take that auntie too seriously, when you reach puberty… AH!”

Brother Zen couldn’t finish because he was kicked at the back by Not a Scaredy Cat. He fell and was trampled heavily by both Not a Scaredy Cat and Phantom Dawn.

“Aunty! Aunty! Aunty!”

“Puberty! Puberty! Puberty!”

The two repeated the two terms that annoyed them greatly as their feet landed viciously on Zen Dream.

“Fine, fine, I apologize…” Zen Dream hugged his head and begged for mercy. “hey! Enough… My life points is dropping!”

The trio from Jiang Hu were stunned. Now they looked rather ridiculous with how ready they were to fight.

“What is going on?” Flashes of Sword was stunned.

“Hmm… If this was not an illusion, then there’s a 80 percent chance… Not a scaredy cat has formed an alliance with these two.” Smiling Divine Question said. While they spoke, the fighting on the other side stopped. Zen Dream stood up and glanced with pity at the cigarette and beer bottle on the ground. Two seconds later, he patted the dust from his body and took out another beer from his inventory…

Seeing this, even Phantom Dawn couldn’t help but reveal a shocked look. “I say… just how many such meaningless things do you carry on you?”

“Ah?” Zen Dream answered as he produced a pack of cigarette from his pocket. “What do you think I spend my 30 inventory slots stocking?”

“How about clearing two slots to store some humility and shame…” Phantom Dawn chided while narrowing his eyes.

“Aiz…” Not a Scaredy Cat ignored them and turned to her guild members. “Let me explain the current situation…”
