Chapter 88: Withering Array
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
“What the hell are these monsters!”
On an island that had been blown up beyond recognition, Li Nong cursed and threw out a delay bomb. As the bomb exploded, all the sea patrol mermaids within 15 meters were slowed down by 50%.
At this moment, their entire team was exhausted. The two warriors in the front row were already in a critical state and couldn’t make up for it for the time being because the support had also exhausted their energy.
However, no matter how hard they tried, they couldn’t completely kill these monsters or destroy the strange stones.
“Why don’t we withdraw? There’s no point in fighting like this!”
“I think so too, Brother Nong. There’s no benefit in us wasting time like this.”
Everyone had already begun to retreat. After all, anyone with a discerning eye could tell that they couldn’t pass at all.
Li Nong didn’t answer. Instead, he threw another delaying bomb, but after so long, his mentality had changed.
If this continued, it would no longer be as simple as torturing people.
However, at this moment, the few stones suddenly shattered without warning. The mermaids who were originally roaring instantly died!
The trapped students on the other small islands also encountered the same situation at this moment. All the students were a little stunned by this sudden scene.
On the other side, Yamada was furious. It wasn’t only because of the death of the Iki no Orochi, but he also felt that the array formation had completely shattered.
He stared at Zhang Xuan below with bloodshot eyes. Yamada had never expected such a situation to happen!
At the same time, the class advancement players from Cherry Blossom Country who had received the order immediately moved. All kinds of colorful skills appeared.
“Protect Zhang Xuan!”
Gu Shanshan, who had regained her senses, reminded them loudly. Then, everyone immediately got into formation. Ma Chang’an stood in front immediately.
Mi Ya and Yang Qingqing released their skills without holding back. All kinds of buffs were instantly stacked.
Zhou Yi held the Frost Dagger and disappeared into the air. Liang Muzi directly summoned 10 puppets!
At this moment, Yamada quickly pierced his fingers. The blood that flowed out was actually a strange black color!
The black blood gathered into a few thin threads that intertwined, forming a hexagram array in front of Yamada.
“All of you must die!”
Yamada roared angrily, and the six-pointed star array disappeared.
“Not good! Everyone, be careful!”
Gu Shanshan reminded him loudly, but it was clearly too late.
An extremely wide black array appeared under their feet, and an aura of death flowed within it. Then, everyone’s feet were suddenly grabbed by a strange black hand.
At that moment, everyone’s mental strength began to decrease at an extremely
tast speed. As their mental strength decreased, their health also began to decrease!
“Is this the Withering Array of an Onmyoji?”
Looking at the ghost hand wrapped under his feet, Zhang Xuan was slightly surprised. He didn’t expect this guy to release a second professional skill in a row after the shikigami.
The Withering Array was very ineffective against monsters and would only cause fixed damage. It was usually not an Onmyoji’s combat method.
However, the Withering Array was very effective against class advancement players. Class advancement players in the domain would lose 250 points of Spirit every second!
It had to be known that no matter what profession it was, spirit was a necessary condition to release skills. A profession like Ma Chang’an’s relied heavily on Spirit.
Therefore, the Withering Array could be said to be a sharp weapon that specialized in restraining profession changers!
Moreover, the Withering Array had a more heaven-defying effect, [Remove]. The health of the class advancement players in the array would be reduced by a
percentage according to their deducted Spirit.
In the end, 99% of the class advancement players’ HP would be forcefully deducted, and they wouldn’t be able to use recovery skills during this period!
Gu Shanshan and the others frowned. They were already within the range of the Withering Array. It was impossible for them to escape.
Although they also had mental recovery skills, their efficiency was very impressive compared to the deduction of 250 points per second in the Withering Array.
However, Zhang Xuan had a calm expression at this moment. It could be said that he wasn’t too worried when he saw the characteristics of Yamada’s skill.
[Unusual Status: Earth Bind]
[Status transfer completed!]
Although the Withering Array had a very powerful binding effect, Zhang Xuan was least afraid of abnormal states.
The ghost hand under his feet disappeared. The Undead Warrior beside him was also emitting a strange black aura, as if he would attack at any moment.
Although Zhang Xuan had transferred the abnormal state through his hidden talent, the Undead Warrior still triggered the servant effect.
Its attributes increased by 50%!
At this moment, the Evil Spirit Sister completely revealed her original ferocious appearance. The Servant Effect was instantly activated as the group of Cherry Blossom Country’s class changers approached!
The Evil Spirit Sister disappeared with a roar. A few seconds later, she appeared in the middle of the Skeleton Army with a class advancement player from Cherry Blossom Country. All the Skeleton Warriors immediately swarmed forward!
[Soul Accumulation Progress: 33%]
Seeing how quickly the soul was accumulating, Zhang Xuan looked at the dozen or so Cherry Blossom Country class advancement players who had appeared in front of him and ordered calmly, “Scatter them!”
The Undead Warrior held a huge ax in its hand and its eyes flickered with red light. Then, it rushed forward like a tank!
All the Skeleton Warriors had also obtained a powerful charging effect at this moment, including the Skeleton Archers in the Skeleton Army!
With the additional effect of the charge, they followed the Undead Warrior like a flood and rushed towards the class advancement players of Cherry Blossom Country not far away!
At the same time, an imperceptible green light pattern instantly spread, with Zhang Xuan as the center. It actually covered half the island!
Zhang Xuan wouldn’t be affected by the deduction of mental effects, but that wasn’t the case for Yang Qingqing and the others.
“When the effect is maximized, you’ll all die!”
Yamada, who had retreated far away, coughed up a mouthful of blood. He naturally knew the abilities of the evil spirit. Now that he had suffered a backlash, it was wise to stay away.
Before Cherry Blossom Country’s class advancement players below could attack, a support class advancement player at the back of the team disappeared.
While they were still confused, the huge Undead Warrior had already rushed to the front row of tanks.
“Attack!”
All the class advancement players of Cherry Blossom Country shouted as countless skills were thrown crazily.
For a moment, all the prepared skills hit the Undead Warrior, who swung its ax at a Light Shield Warrior.
[Health -7000]
BOOM!
BOOM!
Countless explosions flashed, and the area where the Skeleton Warriors charged was instantly dyed seven colors. With the damage of so many Rare-class advancement players, even the Boss might not be able to withstand a wave of attacks!
While Zhang Xuan’s Skeleton Army was charging, Gu Shanshan quickly reminded everyone, “Everyone, hurry up and recover your energy. Otherwise, it will be very troublesome!”
However, just as she finished speaking, she was shocked to discover that her spirit was recovering at a speed of hundreds of times a second!
