Chapter 209: The Power of Mana Drain

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

“Eh?”

Tiger Cub witnessed the rapid formation of the water curtain in front of Slayer’s Heart after he had Stealth and Cloak activated and was apparently a little startled. He then slightly cast his gaze onto the battle at the other side while frowning slightly.

Qin Ruo...

What a fearless newborn calf that is not afraid of the tiger...

This kid’s adaptability to changes was rather good. In this case, it had indeed become more difficult for him to get near Slayer’s Heart without being noticed... It’s interesting that he could think of such a method to counter his effects of Stealth and Cloak. However, Qin Ruo did not know that Tiger Cub would only use an ambush strategy such as that against Elementalists or other non-melee Classes. When he goes up against a melee player, he actually preferred a more direct approach in attacking!

In other words...

Tiger Cub was a player who had great confidence in his melee combat skill!

Yet, it was still rather troublesome with Slayer’s Heart as his opponent. After all, Slayer’s Heart’s combat ability was already well-recognized among that Class. His skill was completely comparable to a Master rank. Additionally, he was using a short dagger to counter the much heavier and longer Pazuzu’s Warhammer. So even he, the legendary Savage Cub, would need to treat this fight very seriously and cautiously!

Thus...

Qin Ruo had indeed given him a huge headache.

Due to Qin Ruo’s interference however, Tiger Cub could now drag Camus into the fight as well. With Camus’ help, killing Slayer’s Heart would be a piece of cake. Nevertheless, powerful players usually had great pride and dignity, especially those Master-tier players like Tiger Cub that were at the pinnacle of H&G. He normally disliked the idea of teaming up, even when his opponent was helped by a water element spell that might affect his actions.

He sneered coldly and selected the most direct upfront assault...

With his Stealth and Cloak remained activated, Tiger Cub directly broke through the water curtain with his highest speed and jumped onto Slayer’s Heart at the center.

“Nice attack!”

Facing Tiger Cub who was stronger and more famous than he, Slayer’s Heart did not back down but instead chose to advance. He took a quick step forward and welcomed Tiger Cub who just broke through the curtain in his blurry and odd form with his Pazuzu’s Warhammer that emitted a sharp howl!

Tiger Cub’s speed at the pinnacle of Tier 4 was truly magnificent. Right before the Pazuzu’s Warhammer was about to land on his body, Tiger Cub’s inhuman blurry form twisted abnormally and caused Slayer’s Heart first attack to miss its target entirely...

Slayer’s Heart was prepared for this. At the moment his regular attack failed to connect, the dark-gold hammer halted midway before accelerating abruptly. It then struck Tiger Cub’s disappearing body at a greater speed.

Too bad...

His attack missed again!

“My turn.”

Such is the advantage of Cloak. Although his movement was exposed by the water curtain placed by Qin Ruo, there was still a high chance for him to successfully evade his enemy’s attack. This condition was unfavorable even to a player as strong as Slayer’s Heart. Tiger Cub’s voice was immediately followed by a glorious rainbow-colored arc ray that slashed past in front of Slayer’s Heart...

You are under attack!

Inflicted with 367 damage by a player from the rival faction!

Inflicted with Poison damage due to ‘Reaper’s Kiss’, losing 100 HP per second continuously 20 seconds!

The system notification and Slayer’s Heart retreating move while gulping down multiple potions shook Qin Ruo to his core!

The Reaper’s End was indeed a Legendary-grade weapon. Its Poison attribute had such an unbelievably high damage! Even with HP Potion (L) that could recover 100 HP per second, Slayer’s Heart would need to consume four full bottles just to stop his HP from plummeting.

What terrified Qin Ruo the most was the fact that although the attack forced Tiger Cub out of Stealth, his Cloak effect did not disappear. He looked like a mysterious giant shadow chasing after Slayer’s Heart at tremendous speed. Even though Slayer’s Heart had also taken the Speed Potion, he was unable to shake off Tiger Cub’s pursuit.

Slayer’s Heart is in danger.

Regardless, Qin Ruo was not too worried about it. Although Slayer’s Heart was in a tight spot, he would not be defeated so easily. At the very least Tiger Cub could not ambush him. As long as he was not stunned, Slayer’s Heart would be able to hold up for more than ten seconds at least.

Nevertheless, it would still be very difficult for him to withdraw from the fight!

After Tiger Cub and Slayer’s Heart fight began, the three Elementalists from Twelve Zodiacs had stopped wasting their Magic Scrolls on destroying the Frostramparts. Alternatively, they started to charge normal spell and used it against the seemingly endless Frostrampart. Although the speed of such destruction was much slower than using Magic Scrolls, Qin Ruo could still feel the immense pressure! The number of Frostramparts were constantly suppressed to less than seven.

On the other side of the field stood another Twelve Zodiacs Field Commander—Camus.

He dared not get involved in either fight. In regards to Tiger Cub against Slayer’s Heart, he had great respect for the former and did not want to offend the Master player that had given him a lot of guidance before. Besides, he was confident that Slayer’s Heart would succumb to Tiger Cub’s strength in just a matter of time, which should have already happened if not for Qin Ruo’s interference.

On the other hand, he had neither the double-defense status of an Elementalist, nor an ability to resist all kinds of magic debuff. Moreover, his Magic Defense was also not as high as an elite Elementalist.

The Magic Attack released by Qin Ruo resulted in damage almost over 200 HP. Even a regular Frostburst attack could reduce his HP by half. He was unwilling to get near the Elementalists’ fight due to the high risk of getting instant-killed.

As a result, Camus had nothing else to do. He stayed far from both fights and quietly observed how Tiger Cub tormented Slayer’s Heart using his overwhelming melee skill...

Tiger Cub’s Cloak and his assassination technique as a Bandit was truly a lethal threat against the majority of player Classes. As strong as Slayer’s Heart was, he was slashed through three times by Tiger Cub within ten seconds and was inflicted with a cumulative damage of about 2000 HP.

However, both Tiger Cub and Camus were surprised by Slayer’s Heart resilience!

Theoretically, after three strokes, Tiger Cub must have dealt 1000 HP damage on Slayer’s Heart. Additionally, the Poison effect should have also reduced another 1000 HP of his, which canceled out the recovery effect of the HP Potion (L) that he consumed earlier. As a Titanwraith Berserker, his HP bar would have most probably been depleted by now. Yet there he was, unmoving and standing steadily before Tiger Cub without exposing any opening for the legendary Bandit to deal the final blow.

The final retaliation of a cornered beast!

Tiger Cub sneered icily again. He grasped at the opportunity and once again trimmed Slayer’s Heart’s HP by another 400 points...

However, Slayer’s Heart did not budge from the attack as if his HP is infinite. Astounded, Tiger Cub finally slightly hesitated in his moves. Slayer’s Heart instantly took the chance and made a Z-shape with his Pazuzu’s Warhammer!

*Thunk*

Although it was just a normal attack, the sound of a direct hit for the first time changed everyone’s expression on the field! Slayer’s Heart was the most excited as he rampaged on to build up his combo...

“Die now!”

Tiger Cub was indeed a legendary-rank Master who had rich experience in all kinds of battles. At the moment he was hit directly, he flicked his wrists in quick succession and released two pitch-black flying daggers. Their target was non-other than Slayer’s Heart.

What?

Captain Tiger Cub actually used a mid-range attack against this Slayer’s Heart bastard?

Camus was left speechless by what he just witnessed. Within the clan currently, he as a Steel Berserker best known for his defense, was the only one that had accidentally forced Tiger Cub to used this move. Other than that, no one else had successfully pushed him to use this measure before.

This bastard...

Camus was crestfallen! However he quickly got through his own thoughts.

Slayer’s Heart vitality and speed are a bit strange. Besides, he was also aided a little by Qin Ruo’s water curtain, so this doesn’t count. Yup, that should explain it.

After he consoled himself, he once again placed his attention back onto the battlefield.

Slayer’s Heart has now lost more than 1600 HP, how much HP does he left? How long more can he brace?

Suddenly, something strange happened!

Tiger Cub that fought Slayer’s Hub with a fuzzy body was suddenly covered by a faint blue light. After that, his Cloak effect disappeared at once and revealed his true form.

Tiger Cub halted in his movements and his eyes expressed horror for the very first time!

“This is...”

Before he could understand what had just happened, a thunderous roar sounded just in his ears.

“Aha!”

Slayer’s Heart that was being pushed to the brink of death several times by Tiger Cub immediately grasped the chance and lock on to Tiger Cub’s body and struck a weak point—a heavy hit!!

Under Camus startled gaze, the Pazuzu’s Warhammer directly smashed onto Tiger Cub waist!!

What happened?

Tiger Cub was hit face on by Slayer’s Heart attack!

“The Aquamancer!”

Tiger Cub immediately activated his Stealth after he was knocked back by the impact to avoid being trailed by Slayer’s Heart Fusion Blitz. He then ordered Camus furiously, “Damn that Aquamancer! Kill him!”

Camus finally understood the situation after Tiger Cub’s exclamation. He also realized that he had actually missed out the blood-red figure that suddenly appeared behind a Frostrampart at the back of Slayer’s Heart. He must have been too shocked to see Tiger Cub getting knocked back and did not pay attention to his surroundings.

Qin Ruo!!!

It’s definitely him!

He has deactivated Aquamorph!

“Run!!”

Qin Ruo nervously maintained his Elementalism while shouting urgently behind the Frostrampart!

Slayer’s Heart understood that this was his only chance to flee—a chance created by Qin Ruo. Without any hesitation, he turned around and dashed toward Qin Ruo.

Camus and Tiger Cub roared at the same time and followed suit, but soon... both of them were abruptly stopped!

*Bam!!!*

Twelve unexpected Aquaramparts suddenly descended from the sky in an eight trigram pattern! These ramparts conveniently blocked their pursuing path!

“Freeze!!”

With Qin Ruo’s shout, a mammoth-scale chilly aura promptly emerged within Silentdeath Jungle!

The activation of the Twelve Frostramparts Formation!
