Chapter 1213: Roller Maneuver, Most Instantly Annihilated

Xia Duo and the other two combined their efforts to accelerate and change direction, but for the seven indigenous hunters behind them who were more familiar with the Astral Plane environment, this was not enough to cope.

You accelerate, I accelerate; the distance between the two sides quickly closed again, and this time, Xia Duo and the other two no longer had any extra strength to accelerate.

"Prepare! Continue changing direction!"

Upon receiving this command, Xia Duo realized the moment for a counterattack was about to arrive, and at this instant, his attention was highly focused.

In such a state, he even faintly perceived the soul projection flickering with bright radiance within this astral-matter body.

However, Xia Duo did not let his mind wander to those things; instead, he stayed in sync with Suo En and Kelifu and began the final continuous directional maneuver—

The three of them slid through a high-curvature arc in the void, continuing to circle while using the previous direction of the pursuers behind them as the central axis.

Such a complex maneuvering method inevitably involved a great deal of mental effort from the three, and at the same time, their speed was far inferior to their previous combined acceleration.

In fact, just as the three of them finished circling through most of the spatial spiral curve, the pursuers behind had already reached their rear!

And at the very moment the pursuers overtook the three, the counterattack erupted!

The three of them almost completely abandoned any thought of active movement, letting the Radiant Domain suddenly lose speed, but relatively speaking, not only did Xia Duo and Kelifu launch an attack, Suo En also participated.

With the coordination of Suo En's Radiant Domain, Kelifu's Scorching Sun Rays surged to over a dozen, shooting rapidly toward the seven remaining hunters in front at a slight intersecting angle.

As for Xia Duo, he knew his attack might be far inferior to Kelifu's, so at this moment, he was willing to act as support, creating a large number of rays similar in appearance to the Scorching Sun Rays to mask Kelifu's attack.

At this moment, the three were in the closest state possible, having just been caught up to and overtaken by the hunters; in reality, both Xia Duo's group and the hunters were still in high-speed motion.

At this moment, what Kelifu's attack was aimed at was no longer the hunter leader capable of shattering his attacks, but a group of ordinary hunter members who had almost no ability to resist.

The speed of the ray spells was extremely fast, not to mention that the distance between the two sides was closer than ever before!

Trying to change formation in a short time was almost impossible, unless there was Magic, but if there were Magic, those hunters should have used it long ago.

Consequently, the rear of the hunters' formation was almost instantly wiped out by Kelifu's Scorching Sun Rays; five human-shaped torches instantly lost speed and were flung far away.

Among the hunters, only one was saved because they were close to the leader.

In just an instant, the numerical advantage between the enemy and themselves was reversed!

The next moment, Xia Duo and the other two accelerated again, not continuing the continuous directional maneuver, nor moving in the direction they were previously traveling.

Instead, they directly accelerated together in the direction of the tangent of the previously changing spiral curve and charged out.

As for the two remaining hunters, there was already a deviation angle between them and the three, and at the same time, those hunters were also accelerating; at this moment, they suddenly staggered, and the distance between the two sides widened for the first time.

……

Behind them, the hunter leader Tulusu suddenly encountered a massive change; the team he had brought out was almost completely wiped out. At this moment, his heart was cold to the extreme, and at the same time, he hated those three pieces of prey to the extreme.

"You stay here and call the Muchuan, I'm going to chase them!"

After saying this, Tulusu and the only remaining member instantly separated; that member's speed kept decreasing, while Tulusu slid through a large circle in the void, galloping away in the direction Xia Duo and the others had left.

……

Inside the Radiant Domain.

Xia Duo and the other two, including Suo En the Eternal Holy Spirit, all showed obvious excitement on their faces. Compared to Suo En's restraint, Kelifu did not stint on his praise:

"Lord Xia Duo, how did you think of this tactic of spiral directional change to decelerate and then launch an attack from behind? It is truly a work of genius! It is so suitable for the environment of the Astral Plane!"

"A spur-of-the-moment idea, obtained by chance!"

Xia Duo chuckled. If he were in the Main Plane, he wouldn't mind saying this was a tactic from his hometown, only he would have replaced the fighter jets with some kind of Magic Creation.

But in the Astral Plane, language, thought, and consciousness could all potentially transmit more information. He could not absolutely control his thoughts and consciousness, but he had controlled them as much as possible.

As for language, which he could control, it was truly not appropriate to speak it out loud.

Xia Duo's evasive meaning, let alone in the Astral Plane, even in the Main Plane, could not be hidden from a Priest known for their Perception, not to mention that Kelifu and Suo En were both outstanding among Priests.

But everyone has their own secrets; Suo En already had a distant relationship with the Main Plane, and Kelifu was asking Xia Duo for a favor, so neither of them delved into it.

At this moment, although the three had temporarily shaken off the danger, that hunter leader was not dead yet; the potential threat had not been eliminated, but had instead become even greater.

Having beaten someone into a lone commander, surely one couldn't expect them not to retaliate?

Compared to Xia Duo and Kelifu, who could pack up and leave at any time, Suo En, this Eternal Holy Spirit who had to live in the Astral Plane for a long time, was clearly more concerned about that group of hunters.

"That leader has caught up, just him alone!"

Suo En looked toward the rear with a firm gaze; his fighting spirit even triggered ripples in the void, causing the speed of the Radiant Domain, which was continuously accelerating, to drop as well.

"Then we fight!" Kelifu also expressed the same firm will.

If that hunter leader was willing to give up, then they could each go their own way in peace, and they could continue to the Dream Ruins, but if that guy was unwilling to give up, then what else was there to say?

As for Xia Duo, he also expressed his willingness to continue participating. In the current situation, if they didn't want to give up the exploration plan, the hunter leader behind had to be dealt with regardless.

However, regarding the arrangement of Xia Duo's duties, Suo En put forward a different view:

"Lord Xia Duo, you don't have to follow us. There is still one hunter who isn't dead; if he isn't dealt with, it is very likely to attract their reinforcement team!"

Regarding this, Kelifu immediately expressed his opposition: "Lord Suo En, Lord Xia Duo is visiting the Astral Plane for the first time. Isn't it too difficult for you to ask him to deal with an indigenous hunter?"

"Kelifu, don't worry. I have encountered these hunters many times; most of them rely on their large numbers to surround prey with special formations.

"Although this hunter leader is unexpectedly powerful, the other hunters don't have much variation.

"Lord Xia Duo, as a Senior Arcanist, and having just proposed such an excellent Astral Plane tactic, will surely be able to easily slay the opponent! On the contrary, it is we who need to worry more!"

Speaking to the end, Suo En glanced at the hunter leader who was continuously accelerating and approaching from behind, and frowned deeply.
