Chapter 943: TRAINING (VI)
[WHAT'S happening there?] – Shen Ji Yun asked Dusk via telepathy.
He hardly contacted the other through this method. He felt it a bit… intrusive. Unlike Luo Yan and Eclipse, he and Dusk didn't have that kind of chummy relationship. At most, they were like business partners. Because of that, he sometimes forgot that master-pet relationship in the game had this kind of function.
[Eclipse and the lion are attacking the base camp.] – Dusk replied back.
Shen Ji Yun furrowed his brows. [What's with the explosion then?]
Both Eclipse and Bai Ze didn't have skills that could cause such a big explosion.
[The lion used a bomb.]
Shen Ji Yun was a bit surprised when he heard that. Just by that, anyone could see that the opposing team was really going all out with this training. He suddenly felt ashamed by his team's performance.
[If you don't have anything else to say, don't bother me. I'm a bit busy here.]
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtHe heard Dusk say before he could even respond.
Then, he suddenly felt something approaching from his back. He turned around and saw red flame about to hit him. He quickly dodged, which made him further away from the crystal.
"If you're not going to fight and just dawdle there, then leave," Rowan growled in that usual guttural voice of a dragon.
Shen Ji Yun flicked his sword, purple lightning surrounding it. "As you wish it."
As he was about to attack the dragon, a certain thought entered his mind. Why didn't Dusk mention Luo Yan?
Luo Jin rushed towards their base camp the moment he got out of that flame encirclement. Before he could even arrive there, an explosion happened. Seeing how smoke was coming out of their base camp, he hastened his steps.
When he finally arrived at the place, his eyes widened slightly. It was because the dragon huge body was being bombarded by countless attacks from Bai Ze and Eclipse while defending their team's crystal.
It's kind of weird seeing such a huge creature trying to defend itself from beings much smaller than them. But Luo Jin could understand that it was because Dusk was concentrating more on protecting the crystal. Attacking the two was merely an afterthought. Which in turn led to this situation.
Luo Jin no longer thought of the how and the why of the situation and simply fired bullets at both Eclipse and Bai Ze. He didn't simply fired them, he made sure that at least one of those bullets would hit. Eclipse, the little bugger, managed to evade, but Bai Ze was hit on his shoulder.
His cousin turned towards him. The other's grin looked a bit savage, probably because those sharp feline teeth. Then, Bai Ze suddenly dashed towards him. He jumped back and continued to shot at the other.
When he thought that Bai Ze would continued forward, he suddenly stopped and then punched the ground in front of him. A huge chunk of hard ground suddenly floated up. Then, Bai Ze punched that and then it shattered and turned into small, sharp, kunai-like rocks. And it flew towards Luo Jin.
The scope of the attack was too wide that whichever way he went, he would still be hit. He gritted his teeth and raised both guns. His only choice right now was to hit these too damn small rocks or whatever.
He was about to fire his gun and also brace himself for the incoming assault when those rocks stopped mid-air before it could even hit him. Then it all disintegrated.
Before Luo Jin could look back, Su Yuqi had already floated and stood in front of him.
"Oh, is this already round two?" Bai Ze asked, smiling sarcastically.
Su Yuqi only narrowed his eyes at Bai Ze. She did not respond to his taunting and just raised her staff. She suddenly swung it and it hit Bai Ze's chest. It was so unexpected that Bai Ze wasn't able to dodge it.
"Lock on."
A red target mark appeared on Bai Ze's chest where Su Yuqi's staff hit. As if he had been zeroed in on by a gun with a laser light.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmBai Ze knew of this skill. It's not a one-hit kill skill that required the target to be directly in contact with Su Yuqi's staff before it could take effect. And the other had already fulfilled that requirement by tapping her staff at him earlier.
It was a skill that Su Yuqi barely used because of how it was almost impossible to fulfill its prerequisite. After all, she was a mage and she hardly got close to her opponents. And because it had been so long since he last saw her used that skill, he forgot about it and got careless.
"Shit," he couldn't help but curse.
This time, Su Yuqi was the one who smirked. "Yes, shit."
Bai Ze panicked at first, but then, he quickly calmed down. Instead of wallow over it, he jumped back to attacking the crystal. It's because it would take at least a minute before that skill of Su Yuqi took effect. Since it was already a done deal anyway, he'd rather spent his remaining time attacking the crystal.
Both Su Yuqi and Luo Jin were dumbfounded seeing Bai Ze's action. The two of them looked at each other before firing guns and skills at both Eclipse and Bai Ze who were currently running around Dusk and attacking him.
The five of them were dancing around each other, their skills flashing back and forth. Almost all the surrounding trees had been destroyed because of their fighting.
After the one minute mark, a whole appeared on Bai Ze's chest. But before he completely turned into light particles, he threw a smoke bomb at the center of where the five of them were standing.
As his HP turned to zero, the surrounding was easily filled with smoke at the same time.
Su Yuqi narrowed her eyes and used a wind skill to blow away the smoke. But before it fully disappeared, all of them suddenly heard a crack. Almost like an ASMR level glass cracking sound.
All of them turned towards the direction of the crystal.
