Chapter 169: It's time to end it

Views:

The plan went very smoothly.

Sometimes Ash had to admit that the five of them were a perfect criminal gang. With some temporary operations, they actually lured Gerard out and created a gap to break into the virtual realm.

The plan was actually very simple: First, Igula randomly selected a live audience member to intimidate. Nine out of ten adventurers had shit on their bodies, and the last one was shit itself. Igula didn't need to use much strength to easily arouse the fear in the other party's heart, making the other party think that Igula was an enemy chasing him, and he ran away in fear.

When the hunters went to kill the adventurers, Harvey used necromancy to connect the chips and add restrictions to everyone in the venue, causing the adventurers to panic. At the same time, Ronald used steel balls to secretly knock down several adventurers and scratch Ash and others, causing everyone to fall to the ground naturally.

The recorder that Ash made temporarily will sound on his stand, and Igula will then use a mental miracle to intensify everyone's suspicion and panic. The adventurers will quickly fall into fear of the hunters, and finally rush out of the camp under the leadership of Ash's stand.

Once Gerard is lured out and the other adventurers have all left, the 'injured' lying on the ground will seize this opportunity to jump up, rush to the passage, leave the blood moon, and start a new life!

Ash didn't have much hope at first, but this improvisational plan, which was full of mistakes, was actually implemented very smoothly. When Gerard turned into a shadow and passed over his body, Ash's heart almost jumped out of his mouth.

A more ideal scene than Igula had imagined appeared: there was only one hunter left on the platform, and the surrounding Moon Shadow priests seemed to be stunned. After Langna knocked the hunter out with a punch, the rest was smooth sailing.

Everything went smoothly in the process when it was most likely to go wrong.

At the end when it was least likely to go wrong, an accident happened.

On the stairs leading to the passage, Ash suddenly felt a chill, as if his heart was being squeezed tightly. He could even feel a word popping up above his head -

Danger!

He knew what was going on—his "wild instinct" was triggered.

As early as in the virtual adventure, this skill obtained from the magician's manual saved him from danger many times. This time, Ash naturally chose to continue to believe in it.

Miracle Sword Barrier!

After being promoted to the second wing, Ash can use his golden magic to activate the Earth Sword, almost tripling the defense of this miracle.

boom!

With a loud gunshot, the warm yellow barrier shattered like glass, and even the ground responsible for dispersing the destructive force cracked into a spider web!

Not to mention a direct hit, Ash felt that even if he was touched by this kind of attack, he would lose more than ten pounds of flesh and bones!

Ash turned his head slightly and saw the orc sniper in the shadows of the camp entrance in the distance.

Schilling's lackey.

He did not forget Gesas, but he never expected that Gesas would just extinguish his last hope. This sudden misfortune made Ash feel that he had used up all his luck because of escaping from prison.

More importantly, when maintaining the sword barrier, he must keep the sword inserted into the ground and cannot move!

After all, the advantage of the swordsmanship faction is destruction rather than protection. Such a powerful defensive miracle has been derived from swordsmanship. The only disadvantage is that the movement is limited. No more can be asked for.

Before this, Ash had not been bothered by this limitation, and naturally had not thought about improving this miracle.

And now, Ash had to make a cruel choice between two options: if he gave up the sword-body barrier, he would be half-killed by a sniper shot from Gusas; if he maintained the sword-body barrier, he would be broken by Gerard himself in a few seconds!

But soon Ash gave up his choice - because Gesas helped him open up a third way.

Gusas quickly raised his left hand and straightened his waist. The heavy sniper in his left hand and the double sniper on his waist were in place instantly. Four snipers appeared at the same time, but he did not lock on Ash, but aimed at the other four jailbreaks!

He was too greedy, no longer satisfied with Ash as his prey, he wanted to take down all the others. Because it only took a few seconds for Gerard to rush over and suppress the whole field with absolute strength, and the price that Gesas paid was just a little bit of magic power.

What was he after? The reward money for the escaped prisoners? Or the favor of the Three-Winged Sanctuary Magician

As an orc warlock who climbed up from the bottom, Gesas had too many reasons to be greedy. Perhaps he had not thought carefully at all, but simply did not miss any opportunity or any prey. This past experience may have caused him losses, but more often it would bring him great gains, so he subconsciously implemented this set of survival rules.

But his prey this time are the most vicious criminals in Kaimon City.

Harvey, who was running in the front, suddenly threw up a skeleton glowing dark green, and then the skeleton exploded in the air the next second. It was obvious that the bullet aimed at Harvey was guided to the skeleton! However, Harvey also groaned, and his left hand fell limply, as if it had no bones.

Igula instantly let out a mental scream, and the strong sound waves formed a barrier without blind spots, which deflected the bullet to the right. However, the distance was too close, and Igula's shoulder was still grazed by the edge of the bullet, directly tearing off a large piece of flesh. Igula staggered and fell to the ground in pain.

As Ronald, who specialized in long-range assassination, had no ability to defend against this kind of sniper bullet, but he did not need to defend himself - Ronald simply pulled him behind him, his right hand glowed with golden light, and he turned around and chopped continuously!

The two bullets were chopped away by Langna!

This is the power of a top-tier two-wing weak magician! He can catch sniper bullets with his bare hands!

While being protected by Lonner, Ronald was not idle either. He threw a bunch of steel balls with his backhand. The steel balls accelerated directly in the air with a sonic boom and shot towards Gusas like a missile!

Although the description of the process seems long, it all happened in a flash. Ash erected a sword barrier for defense, Gusas raised four heavy sniper rifles to fire, and the escaped prisoners defended and counterattacked.

As the only long-range DPS player, Ronald did not disappoint Ash. His Steel Ball Storm forced Gesas to defend.

This is exactly the gap Ash needs!

But after this moment's delay, Ash had fallen to the back of the team. The platform was difficult to climb, and he hadn't even pulled his sword out of the ground.

As we all know, in the escape phase, the slower the runner, the more likely he is to survive, but the last one to run will surely die—because the pursuers will do their best to leave the easiest prey!

He needed a miracle, a miracle that would at least allow him to keep up with the team and not be the last one!

Heart Sword, Substitute, and Flow, these three are the spiritual arts he has mastered most proficiently at present, and Sword Body Barrier is the only miracle he is proficient in.

When Ash's mind moved, the effects of the three magic spirits kept stirring in his mind, and the structure of the miracle technique unfolded layer by layer in his eyes. The realm of the sword and water factions turned into a raging fire, burning all his thoughts, leaving only the most brilliant crystallization of wisdom!

Suddenly, he recalled Valkas's last sword and the miraculous scene of the Sword Princess and him flying into the sky.

Then Ash moved. His right hand was still holding the sword stuck in the ground, but suddenly another sword appeared in his left hand, with a sharp golden light wrapped around its blade.

Use 'Substitute' on the Sweet-mouthed Sword to attach the 'Heart Sword' to the Substitute Sword.

At this time, Harvey had already stepped into the virtual world passage, and the rest of the team members were only a few steps away from the virtual world passage. However, Ash did not move a step, holding the substitute sword upside down, making a spear-throwing gesture, and threw the substitute sword out, hitting the top step of the platform!

Then, launch the 'Earth Sword' at the same time on the Substitute Sword and the Sweet-mouthed Sword attached to the Heart Sword!

Two warm yellow light beams appeared on the platform at the same time. When Igula passed by, he glanced at the light beam of the substitute sword. Ash's heart was instantly lifted - as long as Igula flicked it casually, the substitute sword would explode - but Igula didn't seem to intend to waste any more time on Ash, and rushed straight to the virtual realm passage.

At this time, Ash was already far behind, and he could even hear the sound of Gerard's footsteps breaking the moonlight behind him. Ash had never felt so strongly that his fate was in his hands. As long as he made a slight mistake, his fragile fate would turn into bubbles and be annihilated in his palm.

However, Ash was not afraid, nor excited, and he was not even calm.

He was just very quiet.

He was quietly watching what kind of story 'Ash' would play out next.

Use the substitute sword as the target coordinate, the sweet words and treacherous heart as the starting coordinate, the 'heart sword' as the guide, the 'earth sword' as the path, and the 'flow' as the change!

Miracle!

Except for a faint yellow light suddenly passing between the two warm yellow light beams, there was no other movement, as if nothing had changed. But in this short breath, Ash had already reached the top step of the platform. He pulled out the sword of sweet mouth and belly on the ground, and the substitute sword that was transferred to the bottom turned into light smoke and dissipated.

Success!

The Earth Sword turned into a road, flowing to eliminate friction, and then let the Heart Sword pull Ash. Ash, who was holding a sweet mouth but a sharp sword in his heart, successfully exchanged positions with the Substitute Sword in an instant!

This miracle is called... Running in both directions!

Langna and Ronald were slightly surprised to see Ash suddenly appear in front of them, but they didn't think much about it, thinking that this was Ash's hidden trump card - in fact, there was no need to hide such a rubbish miracle that could move a short distance.

The three of them were only ten steps away from the virtual realm passage. Igula, who had half a foot in the passage, looked back at them, and his pupils suddenly dilated.

Although "Wild Instinct" was not triggered, Ash had almost no hesitation and used "Kill My Miracle" on himself, destroying the illusory stand with one sword and purifying all abnormal conditions in the body! The blood in the body that was about to coagulate instantly returned to normal, so Ash only stumbled for a while and didn't even fall to the ground.

It seemed that Langna also had the miracle of dispelling abnormal conditions and was not affected at all. Only Ronald fell to the ground with a scream, his whole body twitching and paralyzed.

And Igula fell directly to the ground into the virtual realm passage, and was hit at the last moment.

Behind him, Gerard's chain sword had been extended to its longest state, tearing the air apart with bursts of howling, and rushing forward with cruel blood!

There was no doubt that the abnormal blood condition they encountered was Gerard's doing.

As a three-winged blood saint, although Gerard does not like the blood magic faction, it does not mean that he is not good at it!

When it comes to dealing with any creature of flesh and blood, the Blood Magic faction is the true professional counterpart!

Ronaldo reacted very quickly and kicked Ronald away with one kick. Ronald's abdomen made a dull crisp sound, and it was obvious that many ribs were broken.

Then the bald man turned around and the shadows on the ground climbed up on him like a group of black cats, equipping him with a set of shadow armor, making his already tall and burly body look even bigger, colder, and more hideous, like a pitch-black abyss.

boom!

Ronna blocked Gerrard's sword with both arms. His shadow armor was almost shattered, and his left foot even made a dent in the stone floor. But he finally took it and even knocked Gerrard's chain sword upwards!

On the other side, Ash received Ronald and cast "Kill Me Miracle" on him at an incredibly fast speed, dragging him by the collar and running away. Ronald was also a "woodpecker with a golden beak" who was willing to take risks. When his body recovered, he controlled his center of gravity and stood up. Even the severe pain in his abdomen did not affect his movements.

But he didn't rush to follow Ash, but looked back.

Gerard had already walked out of the moonlight, his chain sword transformed into a long sword, and his anger and shame made his already ugly face even worse. Langna stood there in silence, ready to welcome Gerard's outburst.

Everyone could predict what was going to happen next—no one thought that Ronaldo could withstand Gerrard's full-strength attack. The chain sword's attack power was reduced because the distance was too far, and now Gerrard, who had finally arrived at the scene, didn't need to go around Ronaldo at all. He could tear Ronaldo, Ronald, and Ash apart with one sword!

There's no better opportunity than now.

This is my last chance.

"It's time to end it."

After muttering this, Ronald's eyes revealed a hint of determination. He suddenly stopped, turned around and swung his right hand, shooting out a steel ball.

The steel ball accelerated violently in the air, turning into a meteor and attacking Langna!
