Chapter 652: Qin Ruo’s Plan, Wild Goose Chase

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

The stark contrast of the Grand Reaper’s actual appearance to its giant skull perplexed most of the players.

A while ago, it was still a horrendous skull made by numerous skeletons that looked wicked and hideous. The next moment, it had turned into a handsome young lad walking out of the destroyed barrier. Its age did not reflect its name as it didn’t even look the slightest bit like the imagined bearded or bony old man.

It was extremely hard to picture a young and spoiled handsome teenager to be so fond of skulls and had even used it to represent itself.

While cursing the horrible taste of the game designer, Qin Ruo could clearly feel that the Grand Reaper presence had amplified tremendously after it lost the Death Barrier.

The suffocating presence of the Divine Specter was especially prominent after it was exacerbated by the prevailing Deity’s Realm.

If Judge was not holding the front line and had taken away the largest share of rage and focus from the Grand Reaper, many players might have already fled the scene.

Honestly speaking though, the transformation of Grand Reaper was still within Qin Ruo’s expectations.

This was because Yaeger had already warned him about it beforehand when he was telling Qin Ruo about the Grand Reaper.

This catastrophic news would devastate any other Tier 5 player. But when Deity’s Realm was activated sooner than expected and after the Deathfiend Spider took down the Death Barrier with a large scale explosion, Qin Ruo actually did not worry anymore.

On the contrary, a sense of confidence began to develop inside him. Qin Ruo believed the Grand Reaper was destined to fall in their hands now.

Thrilled, he instructed his teammates through the party channel, “Dino, Snowleaf, are you two in position?”

“All I am waiting for is your order.”

“I am okay too.”

Dinosaurcerer and Snowleaf replied instantly.

“Great.” Qin Ruo scanned around the battlefield. He then nodded and commanded, “Judge, execute Plan A now. Remember, your job is to attack Grand Reaper ceaselessly. Don’t bother about anything else. As for others, clear out the area!”

“Hero, Fatale, you two as well. Fall back for now!”

“Other Field Commanders, have your troop move back to the periphery. Be quick!!”

Qin Ruo yelled loudly while retreating along with Violet Orchid and the others.

This action puzzled the other four League Commanders. ‘Move back to the periphery? Doesn’t Qin Ruo worry that it will attract the Grand Reaper to the outer ring and collapse their defense?’

Despite the questionable decision, Majestic Hero decided to obey and fall back immediately. He flapped his wings in reverse and moved to the back line gradually.

He trusted Qin Ruo and knew that he must have something up his sleeves.

Just like how he miraculously broke through the Death Barrier using the swamp of Explosive Spiders, Majestic Hero believed Qin Ruo would definitely achieve another miracle today.

The bottom line was, if he was the one who was in command today, he didn’t think his team was going to last this long under such dire circumstances.

Majestic Hero was at his wit’s end when the Deity’s Realm was released by the Grand Reaper.

Qin Ruo was the only one capable of bringing him one pleasant surprise after another in such a hopeless situation.

“Action!”

The instant the half minute restriction on Grand Reaper ended, three burning dark flames ignored the Lich and directly landed on Judge. The Elemental Fluctuation happened extremely quick on the Grand Reaper’s hand. Right after the dark flame burst apart, another new spell had condensed in front of it.

The speed and power of the spell showed just how determined the Divine Specter was in squashing the culprit that had taken down its Death Barrier.

Unexpectedly, as soon as the second spell took form, a hexagram suddenly lit up under Judge.

Schhwaff!

Judge suddenly disappeared from the Death Reaper’s aim. The Lich with a charged spell and the Deathfiend Spider, which deflated after giving birth to the Explosive Spiders, were all that was left in the Grand Reaper’s vision.

“Eh?!” Outside of the battlefield, the four League Commanders were awestruck by what had just happened.

‘Teleport?’

‘Since when does a Steel Berserker know how to Teleport?’

‘No way!’

‘That’s ridiculous!’

The four of them immediately dismissed the absurd idea.

‘Pfft, it’s not possible. A Berserker with Teleport ability? That will turn the entire H&G upside down and Steel Berserker would have become an unbeatable Class...’

‘It’s a Portal!’

Yes, it was the Portal Skill that belonged to the Summoner Class.

“Brilliant!”

The four League Commanders’ eyes shone with astonishment.

‘What’s our biggest advantage now? Numbers, of course!’

Because of the huge difference in terms of tier and equipment, most of the players were not fit to stand against the Grand Reaper and directly be involved in the battle.

Thus, indirectly, the advantage in number was slashed by about 99%.

However...

If the main advantage was put into use creatively, even the incompetent ones could be used as a decoy to distract the Grand Reaper.

This was exactly Qin Ruo’s idea and he had successfully implemented it in this battle against the Divine Specter.

At the moment Judge was sent away by the Summoner and escaped from the Deity’s Realm, not only the four League Commanders were in awe, but every Fallen Angels members were also in joy and almost clapped. They could hardly hold their laughter after seeing the Death Reaper stunned for a moment before it growled ragingly and dashed toward the other side of the battlefield

***

At more than a hundred meters away from the Grand Reaper, two Radiant Priest and a Summoner were seen standing firm on a clear zone.

As soon as Judge was transported to where they were, the two Radiant Priests wasted no time and swiftly bathed Judge with holy healing radiance.

Two cycles later, Judge’s HP was fully recovered.

After that, the Priests and Summoner did not leave Judge alone. They stood beside Judge resolutely and braced to meet the Grand Reaper’s burning eyes after it was deceived by the lowly humans.

Howl!!!

***

When Qin Ruo saw the Grand Reaper once again targeting Judge who had been relocated, he calmly crossed his hands and spoke confidently through the channel, “Everyone, take note. In the next ten minutes, no one other than Judge is allowed to assault the Grand Reaper. Do you copy?”

“Copy that, Boss!”

The members from the League responded in high spirits.

They had roughly guessed the strategy used by their League Commander to counter the Grand Reaper the instance they saw Judge was being teleported out of the Deity’s Realm.

They only need to stay away from the battlefield now to provide more space for Judge to evade the Grand Reaper pursue.

***

The speed of Grand Reaper moving through the air had increased as compared to when he was wrapped inside the Death Barrier. The Deity’s Realm advanced together with the Divine Specter and rapidly engulfed Judge and the other three players

This was exactly why Qin Ruo had asked them not to get away immediately.

They had no chance of escaping anyway judging by the Grand Reaper otherworldly speed. Once caught up by the Deity’s Realm, their movement speed would only be further reduced. Hence, there was no point in trying to outrun the Grand Reaper.

Instead of leading the Grand Reaper to the defense line at the further end, it was safer for everyone if the Priests and Summoner stayed close to Judge. Their sacrifice was necessary too because the Grand Reaper would not switch its target away from Judge once the Priests were killed.

The Grand Reaper only took six seconds from locking onto Judge to bringing him back within its attack range.

It then swiftly launched several AoE Spell to instantly kill the Summoner and Radiant Priests. The time ticked at seven seconds when Judge was once again teleported away after he had sustained a multiple Attack from the Grand Reaper that had more than half of his HP taken away.

Within the short period of time, Judge had also managed to instruct the Lich to condense an offensive spell. Nonetheless, the spell could hardly harm the Grand Reaper as it only scratched away a few hundred damage from the Divine Specter.

***

In a split second, Judge reappeared at more than one hundred meters on the left of his previous location.

A new team with new Priests and new Summoner was there to welcome him. Like watching a rewind, the same process took place at the same rate—Judge’s HP was replenished, the party held position and waited for the Grand Reaper to jumped at them with clear disdain on their face, the other players beside Judge were instantly killed and then the cycle repeated again.

***

After several rounds...

Majestic Hero and other League Commanders who had backed away from the Deity’s Realm were now watching the battlefield from a vantage point.

Looking at the Grand Reaper going on a wild goose chase had greatly astonished them. They couldn’t help but sigh. “What a brilliant tactic!”

“This is next level thinking!”

Scarlet Bauhinia raised his eyebrows and shook his head in disbelief.

Utilizing Summoners and Priest in exchange for the safety of their combatants as well as to run down the time of the Deity’s Realm was no doubt an innovative strategy. Qin Ruo was probably the only one who would have thought of such a method.

The four League Commanders had benefited a lot from today’s encounter.

Although the Fallen Angel’s success would only further strengthen their dominance in the Angel Faction and widen the gap from the other Leagues, they were still grateful that Qin Ruo had asked for their favor.

The entire flow of Project Pioneer and the experience fighting against the Divine Specter were both very valuable intel to them. These were not something attainable simply through money or manpower alone.

Besides, the Fallen Angels now owed them once. This was such a wonderful bargain no matter how you look at it.

***

Qin Ruo’s plan was thought out thoroughly.

After the Summoner and Radiant Priests were killed, he would immediately send out another Priest to resurrect them. The newly appointed Priests would then be joined by a Summoner and moved to a pre-designated position.

Two minutes later, the Grand Reaper had already gone around a complete circle with a radius of more than two hundred meters.

Every time, Judge would allow the Reaper to attack him once and then instantaneously be teleported away. Then he recovered his HP, absorbed a single attack, and escaped through the Portal again...

The Grand Reaper was unable to instant kill Judge who had 6500 HP now. It probably would have gone mad had it not slaughtered several unimportant players.

The strategy was executed perfectly according to Qin Ruo’s plan. After one lap, the Grand Reaper still hadn’t given up on killing Judge. The Divine Specter locked onto and pursued the Steel Berserker time and time again.

The duration of the Deity’s Realm also reduced little by little every time the Grand Reaper turned its head...
