Villain MMORPG: Almighty Devil Emperor and His Seven Demonic Wives

Villain Ch 596. Unusual Fighting Style [Part 2]

Alice, adopting the persona of a Sentinel class added a distinctive layer to the group's strategy. Sentinel was an advanced class of warriors who concentrated on defense. Armed with a formidable two-handed sword, she became a stalwart defender, poised to strike with power and safeguard her allies. Unlike the agility-focused approach of Zoe and Larissa, Alice's tactics embraced a more steadfast, impenetrable demeanor.

Zoe, Alice, and Larissa initiated their coordinated assault, their distinct roles converged into a symphony of calculated chaos. Zoe, embodying the nimbleness of a cheetah, took the lead. With a swift charge, she closed the distance between herself and the Undead Royal Guard. The monster, anticipating an incoming attack, raised its sword in preparation.

However, Zoe's strategy unfolded with unexpected grace. Rather than delivering a conventional sword slash, she seamlessly transitioned into a lunging maneuver. Accelerating as she approached, her movements mirrored the agility of a seasoned predator.

- Crash!

The monster's colossal blade crashed into the ground with a resounding thud behind Zoe, leaving a noticeable crack in its wake. The gust of wind accompanying the monster's attack hinted at the potential devastation had it connected.

Feeling the adrenaline from the near miss, Zoe capitalized on the monster's exposed vulnerability. As she swiftly moved behind the Undead Royal Guard, she pivoted on her heel with grace. The monster, still recovering from its missed strike, became the unwitting target of Zoe's counterattack.

With a fluid motion, Zoe executed a precise slash aimed at the monster's back. The blade sliced through the air with a distinctive swish before making contact with the undead foe.

The Undead Royal Guard, infuriated by Zoe's successful strike, turned its attention to her. However, Alice, quick to exploit the opening, launched her attack from the side with a powerful swing of her two-handed sword.

Despite the formidable blow, the monster quickly shifted focus to Alice, poised to retaliate. Before it could execute its next move, Larissa, in her Rogue disguise, swiftly released an arrow aimed directly at the Undead Royal Guard from the front.

The coordination among Zoe, Alice, and Larissa created a seamless sequence of strikes, each player capitalizing on the distractions caused by the others. The Undead Royal Guard, now caught in the crossfire, struggled to adapt to the relentless assaults from multiple directions.

Allen was the one who introduced them to this tactical brilliance at the Tower of Power, and the effectiveness of their synchronized strikes left no room for doubt. As long as their cooperation remained strong, this straightforward yet powerful tactic proved to be incredibly efficient in dealing with their adversaries.

Father^Alex, witnessing this seamless coordination, found himself in disbelief and shock. His muttered words, "What holy sunshine am I seeing?" reflected his astonishment. The priestly skills he thought would be essential in protecting the group seemed almost unnecessary as Allen and the girls executed their tactics flawlessly. Father^Alex, accustomed to playing a central role in his healing duties, now felt like a mere spectator as the group orchestrated their assault with precision.

'This is the first time I feel useless...' Father^Alex's inner monologue echoed in his mind. It was a perplexing mix of emotions for him, teetering between happiness and sadness. On one hand, there was a sense of relief knowing that this hunt would be relatively easy compared to his usual responsibilities. No longer did he need to constantly juggle between applying buffs, erecting barriers, and providing timely healing. Instead, his primary focus shifted solely to maintaining his team's buffs.

Father^Alex's gaze shifted to Allen and Jane. Each of them exhibited a symphony of lethal precision against the Undead Royal Guard.

A wry smile crept onto Father^Alex's face as he observed Allen's evolved tactics. No longer relying solely on his previous strategies, Allen had adapted to a more dynamic fighting style. Timing became the linchpin of his effectiveness. Father^Alex appreciated the versatility, acknowledging that an effective fighter wasn't bound by a single approach.

As Allen engaged the Undead Royal Guard, a shimmer enveloped him as he activated his Hiding skill. In a swift repositioning, he materialized in the monster's blind spot, a strategic advantage that showcased his awareness of the environment. Rather than opting for direct assaults, Allen chose a meticulous route, directing his blades toward the monster's vulnerable feet.

The monster staggered, succumbing to the calculated onslaught. Allen wasted no time, choreographing a sequence of attacks. With fluidity and efficiency, he severed both of the monster's hands, expertly planted his blade in its eyes, and concluded the macabre ballet with a decisive stab to the chest. The precision of his strikes left little room for the monster to retaliate, exemplifying the brutality inherent in Allen's evolved combat style.

While Allen embodied dynamic fluidity, Jane choreographed her movements with a rhythmic grace that resembled a carefully orchestrated dance. The Undead Royal Guard swung its blade, and Jane seamlessly leaped into the air, evading the impending strike with a dancer's finesse. The monstrous sword crashed into the ground, at the same time, Jane descended swiftly, she moved her dual swords as if they were a pair of precision scissors. With a deft and calculated motion, she severed the creature's hand from its arm.

The masterful execution of her scissor-like technique left the monster disarmed and vulnerable. Jane capitalized on the advantage. The monster, now handicapped and without its weapon, struggled against Jane's onslaught.

The realization dawned on Father^Alex; this was a group of seasoned fighters, each contributing a unique style that complemented the others. The absence of a dedicated healer didn't hinder them; rather, it showcased their ability to nullify threats before harm befell them.

In just a few seconds, they can defeat those monsters.

Allen couldn't hold back his grin once he saw the announcement. "Sweet," he thought, his eyes reflecting the satisfaction. The heightened drop rate meant that their quest for the elusive Dark Tread had just become a whole lot smoother. He believed that with just an hour of focused hunting, they could accumulate the necessary materials to craft the formidable gear he sought.

"No kidding..." an unfamiliar male voice broke through the airwaves, causing Allen to pivot towards the origin. A quick scan revealed another group of players, their avatars sporting expressions ranging from surprise to sheer awe. At least five of them had gathered to witness the spectacle unfolding before them.

"I'm hunting here all the time, but this is the first time I've seen this kind of fighting style," chimed in another voice, this time coming from a different direction.

Again, Allen's eyes darted to the source, revealing yet another group drawn to the unconventional combat display. It seemed the resonance of their battle had attracted an audience, and a quick glance confirmed that a growing number of players had paused in their own quests to witness the unusual tactics of Allen's group.

Shea, catching onto the growing attention, added her own playful remark, "Guess we're the new trendsetters in the hunting scene."

But Allen had a different thought. 'Oh no...' Allen's internal alarm sounded off. He quickly grasped the reality that his group's unique fighting style had turned them into an unintentional spectacle, drawing the attention of onlookers from various groups. What alarmed him more was recognizing some players from renowned guilds among the audience.

Sparing no time, Allen pivoted towards his team, his instincts prompting him to act swiftly. "Let's go that way," he urged, pointing decisively in a direction that offered a quick escape. The urgency in his voice communicated the need to avoid the potential recruitment pitches or guild invitations that might come their way.

But Father^Alex didn't budge. His eyes were hopeful, fixed on Allen, as if silently conveying the earnest desire to recruit him. "Al, are you interested in joining Celestial Vanguard?" he finally voiced, the words carrying a hint of urgency. Father^Alex couldn't let Allen slip away, not after witnessing the unprecedented skills and tactics displayed by Allen's group.

Allen, caught off guard by the directness of the question, halted for a moment.'I knew it!' he screamed internally. A huff came out of his mouth.

"Thanks," Allen responded, a subtle smile playing on his lips. "But I love this small guild and I prefer to stay here," he added, trying to convey his appreciation while gently declining the offer.

Father^Alex's expression flickered, a mixture of disappointment and understanding. He respected Allen's choice but couldn't shake the feeling that they were letting a rare talent slip away. "If you ever change your mind, the offer stands," Father^Alex said, masking any lingering disappointment with a friendly tone.

"Okay," Allen said. "Now let's get moving now. I don't like being a show," he continued as he strode fast.
