Chapter 185: Mysterious Aquamancer and Cunning Archdemon

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

It was just a short moment for less than ten seconds, but the situation became worse for the Twelve Zodiacs party!

The enemy’s ambush which used a diversion tactic did annihilate all ten Radiant Priests in their party. At the same time, the three Beastblood Berserkers had also died miserably because of the Boss. Following that, the sudden emergence of the Tier 4 Frostrampart Formation of the enemy faction took the lives of nearly ten Bandits, Bowmasters, and warriors instantly!

The interference of the enemy faction directly caused the Mutated Darkshadow Archdemon who almost died to go into a rampage once again. It abandoned Field Commander Saga who was ready to leave the battlefield to reassemble his battle forces and strode to hunt down more than ten Elementalists from Twelve Zodiacs.

That was not all!

As soon as the overwhelming snow from the sky in the east came to a halt, the several Bowmasters who had been standing there for a long time, were dumbfounded. In front of them, besides a few Elementalists with dual defense activated and two Beastblood Berserkers, the wretched Tier 4 Aquamancer was nowhere to be seen.

“Where is he?”

The field was rather empty, and there were no unfamiliar faces aside from their comrades...

Several Bowmasters exchanged astonished looks. All of them stopped and looked around, vigilantly checking the big trees behind them which could hide a target. Even though they did not believe that the opposing party could slip out of their sight in that situation, they might have missed it.

The moment they turned their heads, they saw more than ten of their brothers rush out from the woods in twos and threes.

“Where is that guy?”

Their efforts had also been in vain. They then anxiously asked the Bowmasters, “Where’s that Tier 4 Aquamancer?”

“Wasn’t he on your side of the battlefield?”

This simple exchange of two sentences shook these two groups as they looked at the nearly twenty fallen bodies in the snow. A chill ran down their spines!

“Retreat! Retreat first then we’ll discuss it!”

These people clearly knew and believed in each other’s strength. The other party had managed to go undetected and kill more than twenty of their comrades. Just this number and strength was terrifying! If they did not take it seriously, it might be ...

Team kill!

More than twenty people agreed unanimously and quickly dashed toward the opposite direction of the Mutated Darkshadow Archdemon to join Saga.

***

In the west, Burning Rose and Dinosaurcerer retreated after killing the two Radiant Priests of the enemy team. In any case, the melee Classes of the enemy team was on the opposite end. The single-target Magic Scroll that was held by several Elementalists could not be used on them during this short duration. They could only watch these two people disappear into the woods again.

Although these Elementalists from Twelve Zodiacs were eager to avenge the death of their comrades, more than twenty people had died on their side and they did not even know the exact number of enemies they were up against. Who would go in rashly? God knows if there were heavy ambushes in there.

At this moment, they could only suppress their anger by turning back and grouping together under Saga’s command.

Without the protection of the Beastblood Berserkers and the buff from the Radiant Priests, what else could the poor remaining Elementalists chased by the Mutated Darkshadow Archdemon do?

After all, with the sinister cackling of the little imps holding pitchforks, their dual defense had been shattered, rendering them immobile...

“Grawrrrrr!!!”

The Mutated Darkshadow Archdemon who had been ill-treated for a long time now gave them no chance as it unleashed a dark AoE debuff upon them. The Elementalists’ bodies were suddenly covered by a black layer, which reduced their Attack and Defense drastically. Even the Magic Scroll they hastily unfolded had no effect on the Mutated Darkshadow Archdemon.

“F*ck!”

“Split up! Try your best to escape!”

This perturbed group of Elementalists decided to split into two groups but were too late. In the next second, more than ten Deathly Frostflames rose from their feet.

Deathly Frostflame—burns everything and never discriminates.

In an instant, the bodies of these Elementalists were reduced to ashes from the Deathly Frostflame. The Radiant Priests did not even get the chance to revive them.

***

Just thirty meters away, Saga happened to look back. What was displayed before him was the silhouette of the Tier 4 Aquamancer and more than ten Elementalists from his clan instantly killed by the Mutated Darkshadow Archdemon with nary a trace of their corpses. This made his eyes turn scarlet red all of a sudden!

Although he had experienced countless fierce battles on this Mythical Battlefield, this was the first time he encountered such a situation. Seventy-six people had gone there but with just a small mistake, they lost half of their numbers in less than ten seconds. With only thirty-nine people left, his rage was inconceivable!

Set aside his rage, he also noticed the horror of the people who ambushed his team...

‘During the raid, the other party only sent three people. Each attack was a critical blow to my team. Not only did all the Radiant Priests die, but it also caused us to lose our medium and long-range attackers.

‘They just revealed the tip of the iceberg, but the moment the Tier 4 Aquamancer appeared, the snowstorm scene created was astounding!

‘Besides that, the stealth skill of the enemy...

‘It is absolutely impossible to have such a precise plan without an agile Bandit or Bowmaster!’

What left him astonished was the attack timing of the opponent party. It was at the exact moment when their guards to the surroundings were lowered but could not finish off the Mutated Darkshadow Archdemon quickly. The enemy party must have had planned such an ambush right from the start, otherwise it would have been impossible for them to execute it so flawlessly! What’s more, the enemies had launched a devastating attack at the very beginning!

As he pondered about this, Saga felt slight terror alongside anger in the depths of his heart.

There were so many pros on the Mythical Battlefield. Sometimes, some elite players might form a party and go to the enemy faction’s area to hunt down some prey... This time he... was likely to have encountered an elite team...

If that was the case...

Not only would they lose the Mutated Darkshadow Archdemon loots this time, but perhaps their level, equipment, and Honor Points might also not be recovered.

This thought suddenly flashed in his mind which made beads of cold sweat drip down his forehead...

Right at this moment, the Mutated Darkshadow Archdemon who annihilated the Twelve Zodiacs’ Elementalists stopped its action to dash at Saga all of a sudden. It then roared toward the eastern part of the jungle while retreating several meters grimly. In general, when the intelligent Boss’s HP drops to a certain level, its courage would drop to match and start to make some more human-like “decisions” according to the situation.

“Boss Saga, the opportunity has come!”

The Twelve Zodiacs members were also H&G veteran players—some of them were even pros. After seeing the Mutated Darkshadow Archdemon’s action, they gritted their teeth and glared at the eastern part of the jungle...

More than thirty Twelve Zodiacs members behind Saga took a step forward to target the east that was more than ten meters away. Although this was the beast’s known tactic, it was no longer a concern to them. As long as they could vent their anger by killing the people who attacked them, they were even willing to let go of this cunning Mutated Darkshadow Archdemon!

***

In the woods, a group of people was not as calm as the people in Twelve Zodiacs.

“Why is it looking this way?”

They had initially thought that as long as they dealt a lethal blow to the Twelve Zodiacs by annihilating all the Radiant Priests and some of their DPS Class players, along with the attack from Mutated Darkshadow Archdemon again, that most of the Twelve Zodiacs’ members would die. That way, they would no longer be a threat to Qin Ruo’s team.

Little did they know that the Mutated Darkshadow Archdemon would pause at this crucial moment. When the Boss had gazed at their direction, it had made the stomachs of Brother Da and the others churn as they cursed the creature for its betrayal deep within their hearts. They swore that if it dared to come, they would cut off its penis and eat it as a side dish with beer...

The Mutated Darkshadow Archdemon’s retreat made Brother Da and the others heave a sigh of relief. Meanwhile, Slayer’s Heart, Violet Orchid, and others frowned heavily.

“We are in big trouble.”

“What’s going on?”

It was Qin Ruo’s first time encountering such a situation, witnessing the Boss retreat further away. Comparing the three group forces from Twelve Zodiacs to the small ten-man team here, he felt uneasy.

Slayer’s Heart took a deep breath as he firmly grasped the Pazuzu’s Warhammer in his hand and replied in a low voice, “This Mutated Darkshadow Archdemon knows that we are from opposing factions. It deliberately revealed our position and to let the Twelve Zodiacs to fight with us first so that it would reap the benefits afterward... Hmph!”

As soon as he finished his words, Qin Ruo’s Elemental Perception could clearly detect that the thirty-nine members from Twelve Zodiacs were starting to have some movements. Saga led seventeen Elementalists at the fore, approaching in a fan shape.

“What should we do now? Fight or...” Burning Rose glanced at Slayer’s Heart, but the latter was gazing at Qin Ruo.

“If you reuse the method just now... How many people can you kill?”

Qin Ruo immediately noticed that the group’s formation did not react quickly enough. He said in an uneasy tone, “If they gather together, everyone except Saga and the Elementalists would die, but now...”

The fan-shaped formation 1 of the other party was more than twenty meters long, but the radius of the Frostburst attack was only twenty meters. It was impossible to include everyone in it. Moreover, the other party was already aware and would not give them to any chance to succeed easily.

“How about we... play something big?” Just when everybody was prepared to engage in a direct confrontation, Qin Ruo suddenly directed the question to Slayer’s Heart.
