Volume 5: Protracted War Chapter 144: Encirclement and Killing (2)
All the people were scattered around the two NPCs, and slowly gathered together, but no one dared to make a move rashly. The NPCs were obviously following the principle of "I will not offend others unless they offend me". When faced with us enemies "following and watching" from afar, they did not show any unusual expression and just fled away. Once you take the initiative to provoke them, it is estimated that few players are sure to withstand the thundering blow that will follow.
There were too many wolves and too little meat, and this was a tough nut to crack. Everyone was watching each other, and no one wanted to be the first to come forward and become a "stepping stone" for others to succeed. We met up with Bai Yunjian and exchanged opinions briefly. The Desert Eagle and the others did not take action, so there was only two of us. We might have a glimmer of hope by taking advantage of the situation, but we did not have much money to provoke the Cardinal and the Paladin, and naturally we would not be the first to come forward. We followed with the Saman and the others to see who would lose patience first.
We followed for a while, and according to the information reported by the spies, the reinforcements of the Church of Light were getting closer and closer. If we continued to wait and see, we could only "see off" the two NPCs to join the main force. Seeing that no one was willing to take the initiative, the Desert Eagle finally couldn't hold back and shouted at us: "Since everyone has chased us, they must have the same idea. If you want to succeed , you must rely not only on strength but also on luck. But if everyone has their own ulterior motives and hopes that others will fight for their own benefit, then you can only let the opportunity slip away. Instead of this, why not work together and let it go. Success or failure will be left to fate, and others will have nothing to say. But if someone does not work hard, makes excuses, plays dirty, and finally reaps the fruits of others' efforts, I, the Desert Eagle, will be the first to disagree. No matter who it is, I will find him to argue with him."
He said this to everyone, but Desert Eagle only stared at Qiu Shui Chang Tian, Qing Wu Fei Yang and me. He was obviously asking for our opinions. The first two had more than ten players each following their lead. Although I only had Bai Yun Jian as a companion, I was the only player on the scene who possessed a magic weapon, and I was also the most powerful undead wizard. It seemed that he did not dare to ignore my existence.
Only by cooperating can there be a chance of success, and everyone understood this truth. Soon, Qiu Shui Chang Tian and Qing Wu Fei Yang both added their approval of Dame Fei Ying's proposal. I had originally planned to fish in troubled waters, so naturally I had no objection. After a brief discussion, we began to launch an attack.
As the initiator, Desert Eagle took the first step to show his sincerity. He threw out a "divine invitation card", which is a prop similar to the "soul sealing card" of our necromancers. It can summon a high-level god beyond one's ability through prayer. Of course, the effect of the demon possession can only last for ten minutes. In the rising black fog, Desert Eagle was possessed by an eagle-faced demon, which was a third-level demon at the same level as Seraph. Although it was only a partial god and its comprehensive ability was not as good as Seraph, its agility was better than Seraph. It should be able to fight against Sky Knight, Seraph and Flying Light Lion.
Qiu Shui Changtian and Qing Wu Fei Yang also automatically used a "Soul Sealing Card" each to summon two terrifying flying dragon knights. I had spotted them before , but according to the data, as the top-level terrifying knights, their strength was at least at the level of eighth-level lower-order monsters, which was beyond my ability to subdue, so I did not provoke them.
Other players also showed their abilities, commanding their undead creatures, performing powerful skills, or using special props and equipment to attack the cardinal. For example, Bai Yunjian's "Five Thunders" had a very strong attack power, and several of his equipment had the effect of increasing lightning magic damage. He was one of the best lightning magicians in the world, so even if he hit a Seraph, it would probably have no effect at all. There were also a few arrows drawn by Qingqing Liushui and Sheyue, with a little blood light on the arrow body, and the arrow tip was crystal clear, emitting a blood-red glow. It was obviously attached with a very rare "God-killing" attribute, which had an additional damage effect on gods of light and dark professions.
However, I was the first to launch a direct attack. There was no other way. Satri's "Eye of Glory" was still hanging high in the sky. Before everyone could get close, it might be reflected by the "Eye of Vision" and become blind. Even the Eagle-faced Demon Desert Eagle would be unable to use its power without being able to see. If we want to launch an offensive smoothly, we must first crack the ability of the "Eye of Glory". Such a "heavy responsibility" naturally fell on me, who had another artifact.
I activated the "Touch of Death" and quickly entangled the "Eye of Light" in mid-air. A thick black fog completely enveloped it, and the light was extinguished, with only a faint glow showing through. At the first contact, the two artifacts were evenly matched. Although I couldn't absorb any of Satiri's mental power from it, I finally sealed the effect of the "Eye of Light", making it impossible to track it, nor release the "Eye of Blindness" that could cause blindness.
I successfully restrained the "Eye of Glory", and the Desert Eagles also rushed over quickly. The first to attack were several blood bats, including the Bat King, who sprayed "blood evil" one after another towards the Sky Knight, the Seraph and the Flying Light Lion, trying to interfere with their actions. Although there was a big gap in strength, coupled with the effect of the "body protection holy light", it was resolved in a moment, but it also successfully bought some time. The magicians and shooters on the periphery had already hit Satri, and the Desert Eagles and others, together with a group of horror knights, were about to rush to him.
The bat man blew out four mouthfuls of "blood evil" in a row, and quickly withdrew from the battle with the last breath of vitality. After the attack time limit was over, he would send it back to the "dead spirit space". The four terrifying ground dragon knights stayed beside me, responsible for guarding, and at the same time began to accumulate strength, preparing to launch a "flash combo". The shaman was hovering in the air, not in a hurry to attack, waiting for my order to act.
My task is to try my best to suppress the "Eye of Glory" and prevent it from taking effect. It seems easy, but it is actually extremely painful. In terms of power, "Touch of Death" can compete with "Eye of Glory", but my strength is not as good as that of a ninth-level professional cardinal. The recoil force transmitted is getting stronger and stronger, making my left hand tremble uncontrollably. I tried my best, but was almost shaken off several times. If it weren't for the magic and arrows of Bai Yunjian, Qingqingliushui and others that hit Satri in time, forcing him to distract himself to deal with it and strengthen his own "Holy Light Barrier" for protection, I am afraid the "Eye of Glory" would not have been trapped.
