Volume 6: Fighting for the World Chapter 230: Imitation
The one sent by Hades to accept Hader's challenge was a lower-level 10th-level alien hell dragon. It was more sturdy than a purebred hell dragon, and should be a strong, not very agile, and more inclined to close combat. Normally, this can be said to be a very correct choice, suitable for dealing with a slow-moving, weak-physical-defense necromancer like Hader, but now I have mastered the magic of "primary puppetry". This type of alien hell dragon can be described in another way as having well-developed limbs and a simple mind. In comparison, it is more susceptible to the "puppetry" and is not very agile, which gives me more time to approach it and perform the "puppetry".
The challenge officially began, and the alien Hell Dragon that was fighting rushed over fiercely, seemingly not taking Hader seriously at all. It was no wonder that Hader was only at the upper level of level 8, and was a long-range attack type of undead. His close-range blocking and defense capabilities were weak, and he could not effectively dodge attacks like Guben with his speed advantage. In a head-on confrontation, it was impossible for him to survive six hours under the attack of the lower level 10 Hell Dragon. He was simply asking for a beating. I quickly cast the "sacrifice" magic on Hader. The first one to share the damage was Khufu, and Let's Ivar waited on the side as a substitute. The strongest lineup was also sent out, so that it could ensure that Hader could share the damage from beginning to end during the validity period of the "sacrifice" magic, so that he would not quit halfway after less than five minutes, causing Hader to suffer greater trauma.
Ignoring me who was standing on the side, within 30 meters of Hades - after many actual combat tests of the "Dragon Challenge", it has been confirmed that the lower-level tenth-level Hell Dragon does not pose much threat to me who has the ability of "Blood Bat Transformation". Choosing me as the target of attack can only be a meaningless waste of energy and time, but it gives the challenging volcanic undead a chance to breathe, especially the alien Hell Dragon that fought this time, which is not fast and is even more difficult to cause harm to me. Anyway, it is almost impossible for me to pose a direct threat to them. Therefore, the Hell Dragons that accepted the "Dragon Challenge" have learned from experience, or have received instructions from Hades, and usually do not come to trouble me, but go all out to defeat the volcanic undead under my command. In the past, I had power but nowhere to use it. My strongest attack skill, "Mental Attack", would not have much effect on the Hell Dragon. The strong reaction force would put me in danger, and I could not lure the Hell Dragon to attack me. The only way to help was to use "sacrifice" to reduce the damage to my subordinates. Therefore, the weaker Volcano subordinates such as Hades and Gonzalez could not successfully pass the "Hell Dragon Challenge". Now it's just right. They don't harass me directly, which makes it more convenient for me to use "puppetry" to help.
I bent down towards the east, put my palms together and held them upright in front of my chest, and quickly chanted the spell "The sun rises in the east, and I am the only one who is undefeated". Like the "Great Prophecy" of the Priest of Light, the "Puppetry" does not take too much time to perform, otherwise the effective range is relatively close, and it is easy to be interrupted by the enemy if I take such a posture that is not suitable for fighting and dodging. After completing the spell, a faint black light quickly shot out from my body, covering the body of the Hell Dragon that I had locked onto. It had already rushed to Hader and was swinging a thick hind leg to kick Hader away fiercely. Suddenly, it was affected by the "Puppetry" and the angle of attack could not help but deviate, passing by and kicking in vain. Hader, who had been prepared, took the opportunity to move a few steps to the side, trying his best to distance himself from the Hell Dragon, avoiding being attacked too quickly by a series of attacks, and trying to delay time as much as possible.
Even though the guy in front of me is a simple-minded type, the Hell Dragon is still a race with relatively strong mental resistance . I am only a newly promoted ninth-level professional necromancer, and the effect of the "primary puppetry" with a proficiency of only one star cannot last long. In just a few seconds, the black light covering the body of the Hell Dragon has completely dissipated. During the period of being affected by the "puppetry", all actions are unconscious. After waking up, I will not be clear about what happened before, so I only realize that Hader dodged its attack and chased it again.
"Puppetry" has no specific casting time limit, and can only act on one target at a time. After the effect expires, it can be used again. Naturally, I dare not delay any longer, and immediately cast "Puppetry" to continue to affect the attack of the Hell Dragon, so that it cannot form a systematic offensive and cannot defeat Hader in one fell swoop. Compared with the well-developed Hell Dragon, Hader, as a giant fire wizard, is still much slower. He cannot use those few seconds to retreat far. Before my next "Puppetry" is completed, he will inevitably be attacked by the Hell Dragon. However, I can finally take the opportunity to buy a little breathing time, adjust my defensive tactics, and stabilize my position, so as not to be chased by the Hell Dragon and completely lose the ability to defend, and passively take the beating. In addition, with the "sacrifice" magic to share the damage, and the objects of assistance are Khufu and Let'diva, they will not retire early due to heavy damage and lack of mental strength. The battle situation is just as I expected. Had can still hold on under the fierce attack of the Hell Dragon. Although his injuries are getting more and more serious, time is passing by every second. There is a good hope that he can pass the six-hour "Hell Dragon Challenge".
Looking at Had, who was lying on the ground, covered with wounds, with many defects on his body, and temporarily unable to move, I finally felt relieved and lay on the ground, constantly performing "puppetry", almost without a moment's rest. This was also considered high-intensity labor, and I was really exhausted. Although the process was a bit miserable, it can be said that I was always suppressed and beaten without any ability to fight back, but I finally helped Had to survive the minimum challenge time limit of six hours, successfully won the victory of the "Hell Dragon Challenge", and obtained the qualification to soak in the central area of the "Hell Magma Pool" for ten days every month. I believe that with sufficient magma energy supply, Had should soon evolve into a real giant fire magician and be able to help me. Knowing the new uses of the "Ten Thousand Years Fire Crystal" and the "Millennium Fire Lotus", I have to keep them for use in the key battle to subdue the higher-level Hell Dragon. Otherwise, if Had is allowed to evolve once before launching the "Hell Dragon Challenge", I won't have to fight so hard.
After observing for a few days, Long Xing Tianxia and his team also formulated a plan to ambush the ten light NPCs in Sampras and Hanover according to the relevant situation. We can't send too many people. After all, the Western Continent is the base of the Church of Light. If we send out a large number of people, it is easy to increase the risk of being discovered and exposed. Once we attract the attention of the light players such as the Supreme Honor, I am afraid it will be our turn to be hunted down. After discussion, it was finally determined that there were a total of 60 people participating in the ambush, mainly 30 directors of the Dark Council. Each of them can bring a helper. The selected people are naturally top masters. However, only I have been promoted to the ninth level of the profession, and they are all still the eighth level profession. Otherwise, there might be a chance to fight the two tenth level light NPCs head-on. If we confront head-on with our strength, we will definitely not be the opponent of the two tenth level light NPCs holding artifacts. Unfortunately, we are in the Western Continent, and the traditional plan of luring the enemy to chase and attacking them all the way is not applicable-during the pursuit of me, there will be continuous light players rushing to join the battle, and it may not be possible to successfully lure the light NPCs to the ambush site. Moreover, it attracted too many Light players to rush over, making it easier for Long Xing Tianxia, who was ambushed, to be exposed. There were too many variables, which could easily destroy our ambush. The best tactic was to fight quickly and kill those level nine NPCs with all our strength, and try not to alert other Light players to participate.
We chose a suitable ambush location, which is relatively remote and generally has few players passing by. This is convenient for us to hide and prevent too many enemy reinforcements from arriving during the battle. Anyway, no matter where I am, as long as I am exposed in the Western Continent, Sampras and Hanover will always teleport here quickly. Fortunately, although the light artifact "fixed-point teleporter" is more practical than the dark artifact "teleportation star disk" held by the NPC Undead Holy Mage Shadow, the number of people teleported each time is much less, probably only ten people at most. Otherwise, each current level 10 light NPC is arranged with four cardinals and four light paladins and eight followers. Only half of them have come now. If all of them are dispatched, it will be more difficult to successfully ambush them.
In addition to me, the other 59 players who participated in the ambush were divided into several groups. They all sneaked into the designated location of the Western Continent in advance, scattered around to ambush, or hid in the dug holes, or wore camouflage clothes. If you don't go close and take a closer look, it is generally difficult to detect any abnormalities, and you don't expect to be discovered by the passing Light players. After they were well arranged, I quietly sneaked into the Western Continent, using the thief's "stealth" skill to avoid being discovered by other players all the way - I killed too many people and my whole body turned red and black. As long as I fell into the eyes of the Light players, they would be sure that I was "Demon King". In addition, the dark abilities of the undead wizards such as "Demon Possession" and "Blood Bat Transformation" will be sensed by the surrounding Light players. Therefore, in order to achieve the purpose of ambush, the actions have to be more careful, and the whereabouts cannot be exposed too early to alarm Sampras and others.
In order to avoid complications or too many obstacles that would delay more time, Long Xing Tian Xia also arranged an insider who was mixed in the Western Continent to cover my actions and try to divert other players along the way so that I could move forward smoothly according to the predetermined route and arrive at the ambush site as soon as possible. In addition to my rich experience in infiltration, I was more cautious in my actions. I did not encounter too much trouble along the way and arrived at the predetermined ambush site in time. While there were no light players passing by nearby, I first cast "Pet Summoning" to summon Tao Tao and Rosberg, then entered the "Blood Change" state, cast "Undead Summoning", summoned Wuji, Let's Ivoire and Wu Ma, and then activated "Death Touch" to quickly replenish my mental power, and strive to strengthen my strength as much as possible before being sensed and confirmed by the light players and summoning Sampras and Hannover. Long Xing Tian Xia, who was lurking around, naturally could not act in advance, lest they be discovered by the light players who came to investigate, and reported that they had seen through our plan. They had to wait until the light NPC was teleported before they could appear and launch an attack.
As the "Demon King Dai" who has killed thousands of people, I am notorious and bloody. Once I cast the undead magic, the light players will be able to sense the extremely heavy dark aura emanating from me from a long distance, which will easily expose my whereabouts. After only more than ten minutes, I summoned two more groups of undead subordinates - seven black bone dragons and Khufu, the upper-level undead ghost phoenix of level nine, and five six-armed giant magicians, and found that some light players were searching for me. Originally, they were hiding from me. Even if they sensed my existence, they didn't dare to come to investigate. It was the damn Sampras and Hanover who gave them the confidence and arrogance to block me. In order to earn the reward for the report merit that was restarted, they actually had the courage to come to trouble me. If I didn't use this ambush to dampen their spirit, they would really forget the pain after the wound healed, thinking that I was easy to bully, and anyone dared to ignore my existence.
Only when they saw me did those light players get scared and hurriedly fled. They knew they had no strength to fight me, so they could only act as spies or cheer me on. After confirming my specific location, all that was left was to send the message out quickly to get the corresponding merit rewards, so that even if they were killed, it would be worth it. The Light Church used this method to cooperate with the light NPC to ban me. I would naturally not be merciful to those who dared to offend me, and commanded Wuji, Let's Diwa, Wu Ma, and Black Bone Dragon to chase them out. I would earn a profit if I could kill one, and I would never let them go easily.
After killing a few Light players who were left behind, a familiar golden light lit up a few hundred meters away. As in many previous times, the Light NPCs quickly received the message and sent it over. It was still the two level 10 NPCs, Sampdans and Hanover, and eight level 9 NPC followers. Unfortunately, their positions were a little off, and they were not within the range of the five six-armed giant magicians, so they could not attack them immediately. Not daring to delay, they immediately gave up chasing the Light players who were fleeing, gathered their men, and rushed towards them. And Long Xingtianxia, who was ambushing around, also showed up as planned, rushed out from their respective hiding places, surrounded the ten Light NPCs in the middle, and killed them from all directions, not giving the enemy more opportunities to fight.
Although they encountered an unexpected surprise attack, Sampras and Hanover were powerful level 10 professional NPCs with high intelligence and adaptability. They were not panicked. After they understood the situation of being besieged, they quickly formed a battle formation. The Knights of Light guarded the periphery and protected the Priests of Light in the middle. Sampras and the four cardinals jointly launched the "Holy Light Barrier". Hanover and the four Paladins of Light began to summon their mounts and entered the battle state. Only then did I really breathe a sigh of relief. Whether it was because they believed in their own strength, disdained to escape without fighting, or because the "fixed-point teleporter" had limitations on its use, as long as they did not immediately escape through teleportation when they saw the situation was not good, and were willing to stay and fight this battle with us, we would have a chance to win, and it would not be a waste of time.
The pets and summoned angels were the same as before, and there were no new changes. Perhaps seeing that we were in large numbers, Hanover rode on the holy magic pet, the Holy Dragon of Light, and summoned the eight-winged holy angel to possess him. He had already used his artifact "Cupid's Arrow". A shining golden little angel, almost half a meter tall, holding a golden shortbow, and looking cute, was suspended above his head, drawing his bow and arrow, and was ready to fight and attack at any time. With strength beyond the upper level of level ten, he can be said to be invincible. With the cooperation of Sampras, we will have to pay a huge price if we want to kill those level nine NPCs.
The players in the front were Long Xing Tian Xia, Desert Eagle, A Feng and other melee players. They were only level 8 professionals and had level 7 pets. Even if they relied on artifacts or pseudo-artifacts, they might not be able to defeat these elite level 9 NPCs in a one-on-one fight. The strongest undead subordinates summoned by the undead wizards such as Qiu Shui Chang Tian and Qing Wu Fei Yang were just bone dragons, which could barely contain the level 9 NPCs. They could hardly pose much of a threat to Hanover and Sampras, two level 10 warriors. This kind of strength did seem a bit shabby in comparison, and there was no chance of winning. No wonder these bright NPCs did not worry about their own safety, and they came as soon as they were called, and kept chasing me recklessly.
These light NPCs were very cautious. Although our individual strength was obviously inferior to theirs, they did not take the initiative to attack. They formed a defensive formation and chose to stay where they were. It seemed that they planned to dampen our spirits first and then launch a counterattack. Seeing that the fastest knight player had rushed to a distance of less than 100 meters, the light NPCs and their pets, possessed or descended angels were also ready for battle, but they saw a faint black light flash in the hands of a player in the distance, and Hanover's body quickly lit up with black light to echo it from a distance. The figures of the two flashed twice at the same time and disappeared from the spot in an instant.
This is our plan. The Magic Knight Blood Battle Eight Directions used the pseudo-artifact "Magic God Realm" to absorb Hanover, the most powerful Knight of Light, into another independent space, temporarily leaving him from this battle. Similar battles have been staged in the last "World Heroes Conference" and the Glory team finals. I was dragged into the "God's Realm" by an angel in the human world. The hero had no place to use his skills, which led to the failure of the Tongxin League. This time it's the turn of this group of light NPCs to taste the taste.
