Chapter 429: 429
The golden red fire bloomed like a flower, blinding the surrounding area like it was morning. Surrounded by this glow, Pegasus charged forward into the black lazer that came at him. Pegasus melted himself into the skill that he used, he shattered through the lazer and shot into the hole. Two seconds later, a loud explosion came from underground…
The tremble went on for a long time. Another 10 black lazers exploded everywhere. Ambitionist who stood close to the hole was forced back for several metres.
“Still can’t take care of him…” King of Shadow who stood at the back had nothing to do but wait. The drawback from using multiple Doors of Solomon, the heavy damage suffered at the start of the battle deprived him of any fighting ability. Even if he forced himself to enter the battlefield, he would only be a burden.
“Argh…” After a few seconds, Pegasus wailed with mercy as he was tossed out from the hole and landed on the ground.
“So this is the strength of an Anomaly…” Ambitionist was covered with sweat and the hands that held the bow were shaking uncontrollably. “Hah…” a bitter smile appeared on his face. “Just how does one kill a monster like this…”
“It is not yet time to give up.” Feng Bujue answered in a confident tone. “We are all still alive, aren’t we?”
“Indeed.” Pegasus who was lying on the ground said, “Even though I can’t stand up or even move but there has to be a way.”
“What is this way that you speak of?” Ambitionist grumbled. “How can you even say something like that when you are literally lying on the ground supine?”
“Erm… I have a question…” Feng Bujue turned to Pegasus, “How many times you can use that revival skill?”
“That was a one-time use skill.” Pegasus answered without thinking.
…
“So… do you have other useful skill?” Feng Bujue asked again. “Obviously, a normal skill is not going to work. And in my current condition, I am unable to use a second hit of Kamekameha.” When he asked this question, his hand already reached into his inventory. If Pegasus’ reply was ‘I have another ultimate’ then Brother Jue would not hesitate to present him with a cure-all medicine. But…
“My only active skill is Pegasasu Ryūsei Ken.” Pegasus answered straightly. “The Phoenix Sky Burst you saw was forced on my by my studio to use in the final. They apparently spent a lot on it but honestly… I personally do not care for it.” This Pegasus was undeniably a teen suffering from Sophomore Syndrome. Everyone knew that a player like him would not get a good result in the Tournament for the Best but unfortunately… the other players from “Celestia” were even worse than him, they were eliminated in waves during the preliminary and semi final. The management had no choice but to place all of their hope on Mr. Pegasus.
At this moment, the management of Celestia were grinding their teeth in resentment, and they kept mocking Pegasus for his actions and words…
…
At this point, it was worth noting that the appearance of the Anomaly would not affect the broadcast. Even though the players in the game could no longer hear the narration but the audience watching the broadcast could. Other than that, since the broadcast only followed the players’ battle so they would not know about the things that happened beyond that. For example, the audience could see the battle between Zombie Blade Victor and Uncle Worthless but after Shiva and Phantom Dawn cut into the battle, the broadcast stopped and the audience had no idea what happened later. And the players who were captured by the Anomalies. After they were knocked unconsciously, they were no longer in any state to battle so when they were brought to ROOT and how they were killed was not broadcasted to the audience.
…
Back to the story…
“Ha! Ha ha ha ha ha…” When he heard Pegasus’ answer, Feng Bujue laugh. This was not a mocking laugh but he used his laughter to express this feeling—’you are one crazy man!’
“Fine… at this stage… I’ll have to try something.” Ambitionist readied his bow to do something. “But do have too much hope… in terms of damage, my ultimate won’t be as crazy as your flashy skill.” His finger pulled on the bowstring and gathered his thought. A light arrow emanating a blue spiritual light appeared.
“Feng Bujue…” Y2-Bright Glow’s voice suddenly rang out again. “I have to thank you…” As he finished, a man glowing in a dark light slowly rose from the hole created by Kamekameha. “Your attack is like a medicine… Hah…” Y2-Bright Glow smiled gleefully. “That have given me a new breath of life.” He worked his neck and continued to speak, he did not mind at all that Ambitionist was preparing his skill. “I initially thought ‘energy enhancement’ will not be as effective as ‘beastial enhancement’ but looks like I was wrong…” At that moment, the arrow on Ambitionist’s bow glowed brightly, its energy gathered to its maximum. He released the finger and a light arrow like a blue lance soared forward.
Name: Spirit Spark
Skill Card Property: Active, Permanent
Skill Type: Sorcery
Effect: Focus spiritual energy to unleash a very devastating shot (cd is 30 minutes and can be activated when equipped with a bow type weapon)
Exhaust: All existing Sorcery Points (This skill cannot be used when Sorcery Point is 0, when used Sorcery Point at least has to be 1)
Learning Requirement: Sorcery D
Remark: A very simple and effective skill. Channel all the Sorcery Points into an arrow and use it to kill an enemy. The greater the user’s sorcery point, the higher the damage.
“Ha ha… An attack transmuted from 300 plus Sorcery Points?” Y2-Bright Glow looked at the Spirit Spark but he only laughed mockingly. “That’s about as strong as a splash of water in my current condition…” When the arrow reached him, he waved his arm and the light arrow was dispersed just like that…
“You should get it now, right?” Y2-Bright Glow’s tone was threatening. “With the strength of your current data, you will not be able to kill me and that is a ‘definite’.” His eyes scanned the three still standing. “But I do wish to see… what kind of new tricks, a trash whose spine is broken and three other trash who aren’t my opponent at their prime will be able to pull.”
“Hmm… Well, since you’ve asked for it…” Only Feng Bujue would answer in that moment. “I would have to use ‘this’ on you…” He said as he reached into the inventory. “Actually… before I came here, I just did a deal with the bosses from the Kingdom of the Nether Abyss and nabbed me something quite impressive… I was planning to use it on your boss but…”
“Then you better put it away.” Suddenly a woman’s voice came from nearby.
Without turning around, Feng Bujue recognized the owner of the voice. “Haha… if you say so.” At that moment, Brother Jue gave a relieved smile because he knew that the strongest reinforcement had arrived.
