Chapter 336: Death Battle (Part 5)
Meanwhile, outside the castle, the players' defensive formation was under high-intensity assault from the monsters, and all players were on the verge of being wiped out.
A two-hour countdown had already appeared on the World Channel, and countless players were wailing in agony below.
Huahua: "Sob sob sob~ Am I going to die in this world? No way! I'm still very young, I don't want to die!"
Xihai Langzi: "There's only over an hour left, how are we supposed to hold out!"
Station Master Who Loves Lifting: "Everyone, don't give up. The decapitation squad is still inside the castle killing the World Boss; we will definitely be able to leave this world alive!"
King of Desert Kings: "They aren't going to die in the castle, are they!"
Yangguang Xujie: "Everyone must believe in them. They will definitely be able to defeat the World Boss and let us all leave this damned world ahead of time."
…………………
Zhao Yuxin looked at the crumbling defensive line and the World Channel filled with negative messages, her heart in a complete state of chaos.
By this time, her Plant Legion had already been completely wiped out, with only Gelina and Xuebao left by her side, and their Tricycle was also riddled with holes.
"Mm~ mm~" Xuebao hid in Zhao Yuxin's arms, shivering, its cold aura spilling out uncontrollably.
Gelina had also exhausted all her Magic Power and was fast asleep on top of Zhao Yuxin's head.
Zhao Yuxin was on high ground, directing the players to counterattack while adjusting her panel to the teammate panel; seeing that Zhu Zhiquan's HP was still above 40%, her brows involuntarily relaxed.
At this moment inside the castle, the decapitation squad was discussing how to kill Jiemodala, while the priest was also treating Zhu Zhiquan's eyes.
But the surrounding Chili dust was gradually dissipating, and some monsters began to pass through the coverage of the dust, launching a charge at them.
Zhu Zhiquan could only throw out the last Explosive Chili, and soon new Chili dust covered a portion of the monsters again, but many monsters still bypassed the Chili dust area and charged toward the squad.
"Hey, forget it, two people come with me to kill the World Boss, the rest are responsible for holding off the monsters." Chen Ligang roared as he charged toward Jiemodala.
Seeing this, the priest immediately applied buffs to everyone, and suddenly the words Void Snatch, Strength Buff, and Speed Buff appeared on everyone's Personal Panel.
The decapitation squad immediately split into two groups; one group consisted of Chen Ligang, Ma Linlin, and the priest, engaging Jiemodala head-on.
The other group was Zhu Zhiquan, Lin Ziyao, and the Black man, who were responsible for intercepting other monsters from approaching, while simultaneously using the Void Snatch buff to rapidly recover Magic Power.
Jiemodala had just escaped from the black hole and hadn't even caught its breath before being besieged by the three; it originally wanted to use a skill to buy itself some time, but its acupoints damaged by Lin Ziyao had not yet been repaired.
Thus, Jiemodala could only first break away from the siege of Chen Ligang and the others and run toward the Plant Monster direction, but by this time Zhu Zhiquan had already recovered enough Magic Power and launched Hell Lament at all the monsters.
This caused all the monsters to suffer a soul strike, leading them to fall into a dizzy state, unable to provide support for a short time.
And Zhu Zhiquan's eyes were also rapidly recovering under the effect of the Fierce Battle Ghost, erupting with even more astonishing speed as he killed the monsters along the way.
Coupled with the effect of Void Snatch, which recovers Magic Power by consuming blood, Zhu Zhiquan didn't need to worry about insufficient Magic Power at all.
Thus, every time the monsters regained consciousness, Zhu Zhiquan would launch Hell Lament again; the monsters could only stand in place and be killed, all the way back to the hole they had entered from.
Then, Zhu Zhiquan laid all the Landmine Pinecones from his Space Necklace around the hole, and finally, there was the question of who would be responsible for guarding this hole.
The Black man shouldered his weapon, "Say, who should stay behind to guard this hole next?"
The Black man waited in place for a long time without receiving a reply, turned his head, and discovered that Zhu Zhiquan and Lin Ziyao had already run toward the World Boss direction.
"Fuck! These two really have no sense of the big picture!" The Black man grumbled, aiming his weapon at the hole and taking on the duty of guarding the hole alone.
And at this moment, Jiemodala, relying on its own attributes, was able to remain invincible in a one-versus-three situation, but with the addition of Zhu Zhiquan and Lin Ziyao, Jiemodala could ultimately only flee in panic.
"Damn it, can't you guys just have a one-on-one duel? So many people bullying me, a mage who has lost his skills, do you still have any shame!" Jiemodala helplessly issued a condemnation.
Ma Linlin: "That's not necessarily true, oh. Who told you to be a Great Mage? We small fries only have the qualifications to fight you if we go together."
Chen Ligang: "That's right, that's right, you are a Plant Archmage after all. Please, just behave and fight us, let us witness your prowess."
Jiemodala only felt that this group of people had something wrong with their brains; they actually wanted it, a Great Mage, not to run—wasn't this just purely asking for trouble?
But now it hadn't repaired the damage to its acupoints yet and had to delay time as much as possible so it could have a chance to counterattack.
At this moment, the sound of electric current crackling suddenly rang out behind Jiemodala; it turned its head to see Lin Ziyao was charging up, and the surrounding electric current seemed to hint that a big move was coming toward it.
Jiemodala had black lines all over its face and wanted to dodge but was hit in the calf by a staff, causing it, a Great Mage, to fall to the ground.
And Lin Ziyao also seized the moment to erupt instantly, like a bolt of lightning, slashing heavily onto Jiemodala's back; although the damage caused by this strike wasn't great, the powerful electric current struck several acupoints through the meridians.
This made Jiemodala, who was preparing to crawl up, feel that its legs were somewhat heavy; it seemed that this time the acupoints related to the legs had been sealed.
At this time, Chen Ligang and Ma Linlin attacked Jiemodala from the left and right, forcing Jiemodala to raise its staff to block.
Ma Linlin's weapon was a sword, so there was no problem blocking.
But Chen Ligang's weapon was a Meteor Hammer; after Jiemodala blocked, the chain of the Meteor Hammer touched the staff and bent, causing the hammerhead to land on its face anyway.
At this time, Zhu Zhiquan also raised the Jingtian Pozhen Gun and violently smashed at Jiemodala's legs, and from time to time, a Thunder Dragon would appear on the staff, continuously giving Jiemodala electric therapy.
Lin Ziyao immediately turned back after a successful strike and joined the others in beating up Jiemodala; if someone unaware saw this, they would think it was a bullying scene.
Under the five people's alternating attacks, Jiemodala was forced to defend, but it only had one last key acupoint left to repair; as long as it repaired the last acupoint, it could rely on its skills to counter-kill.
But at this time, Zhu Zhiquan saw that after the group had been beating it up for so long, this Jiemodala still hadn't died! So he came to Lin Ziyao's side, exchanged weapons with him, and poured all three points of Magic Power into one blade.
Just as Jiemodala had finished repairing all the acupoints that sealed its skills, Zhu Zhiquan's charged slash was also completed, and he slashed down toward its head.
