Sheyan was being bombarded!
Fortunately at the nick of time, Reef’s nightmare imprint flickered with dazzling brilliance as he stretched out his arm. Instantly, a semi-transparent golden armour appeared above Sheyan’s head, and revolved down onto his body.
Faith-guard!
In the next second, two flying frost knives, a sniping bullet and two other long range assaults struck Sheyan, causing him to stumble forward. The ‘Faith-guard’ enshrouding Sheyan instantly shattered, as golden glitters showered in all directions.
Even with the protection of the 40% realm regulation and his impregnable innate ‘Stronghold’, Sheyan was still grievously injured. His health points radically dipped by half.
The sniper bullet had blasted opened a humongously hideous mangled wound on his back. The twin flying frost knives stabbed deep into his back, and dealt massive damage over time. Smoky fumes spiralled out from his body, as his whole body was charred black.
Yet simultaneously under the torrents of assaults, an electrifying blue jolted through his body. ‘Zergling Rush’ had been activated! He frantically smashed a strength curse-mix, as moss greenish toxic fumes dispersed out and further weakened the illusion master. Moreover, the fumes similarly acted as a cover, making it difficult for the sniper to pinpoint his location.
Raising his oceanic blue long sabre loftily up high, a trail of greenish toxic fumes lingered around it. Then, with a flash of lightning, blade rays hacked down with unrivalled ferocity.
Frankly speaking, the might of Sheyan’s ‘+7 West’ saber was relatively less threatening when battling storyline characters, than in a fight between contestants. This was because of its property to cut through various defenses, resulting in extremely terrifying damages.
With a single hack of the blade, the illusion master howled frenetically and miserably into his party channel.
"AHHHHH! This guy’s insane. His weapon actually dealt crushing damage, its normal damage negates defence, acidic damage (from Sheyan’s ‘Shrivelled tangerine’), true damage from something called ‘Flesh Explosion’, and corrosive damage (from Sheyan’s ‘Corrosynthesis’) !!! Six different kinds of attack, and three of them are akin to true damages! HELP ME!!"
Even so, Sheyan wasn’t one to act benevolently. With another uppercut slash, he swiped the poor fellow up into the air with blood splattering. But in this instance, a contestant that was previously attacking Reef, once again unleashed a barrage of attacks like a speedy typewriter.
Sheyan loved such high frequency low damage output opponents the most. His eyes bulged with bloodied veins, as ‘Zergling Rush’ was triggered once again. Three vicious blades hacked down once again!
"The more vicious your strikes, I shall return 10 folds or even a 100 folds onto your comrade!!"
"We shall see who endures longer!"
Kacha! Bones were cleaved in alongside blood-curdling screams. Finally, an arm swivelled out with blood spurting from its severed end.
Even this illusion master, a formidable Growth-Hunter, was still utterly defeated under Sheyan’s concentrated attacks.
Though his back was a mutilated mess, Sheyan mustered one last slash; sending the illusion master flying as he sunk into near-death state.
Finally, Sheyan pulled out ‘Ambition’, and took aim at the contestant’s head.
But at this precise moment, the distant Drizzt stood up and mumbled an enchanting incantation.
"Enchanted pupil of frost fixates your soul, let the frosted cold dictate life and death!"
In the midst of his incantation, a shockingly straight frozen beam bolted out from his fogging icy hands. The frozen beam seemed like it existed in another dimension, unimpeded by all obstacles before directly connecting Drizzt’s hands and Sheyan.
2-3 seconds later, a entirely different rhombus frost dagger jetted out with indescribable velocity.
By now, Sheyan had already pressed ‘Ambition’s’ trigger. In the wake of rumbling gunfire and assailing fumes, a lead bullet punctured into that unlucky contestant’s head and blasted it into smithereens!
Blood splattered across Sheyan’s face. Only now, did Sheyan realized a frozen beam connected him and Drizzt. Although he didn’t know its effect, he could tell it definitely wasn’t something good. Instantly, he dove to take cover behind the corner of a wall.
Alas, it was futile. Under the guidance of the frost beam, the rhombus frost dagger effortlessly bypassed the corner like it was a mere hallucination, and simply stabbed into Sheyan’s right chest.
Instantly, Sheyan’s left chest was frozen solid, as spikes of crystal blue icicles jarred out. When that frost dagger nailed into Sheyan’s chest, it appeared like glass smashing against a rock yet without shattering.
With the dagger as the nexus, Icy cracks extended outwards and eventually shattered with a sonorous crash, as chunks of frozen flesh and ice fragments fell to the ground. Then, a bowl sized deep cavity was left at Sheyan’s left chest, where even the peristalsis of his lungs and his ribs could be vividly seen!
The damage dealt to Sheyan was simply inconceivable!
In a flash, yet another frozen beam converged onto Sheyan. Following the earlier procedure, after 2-3 seconds upon connection with its target, a frost dagger would shoot out; unhindered by all constructions or obstacles.
With half of his upper body frozen solid, Sheyan barely managed to roll several metres away. Still, he failed to evade the connection of that frozen beam.
The frost dagger shuttled in, and right before it struck, a masculine figure charged in with indescribable speed out of the blue, and blocked Sheyan’s front.
Indeed, Reef demonstrated his ability - ‘Courage’!
Right before the rhombus frost dagger struck in with unmatched velocity, Reef lifted his dark-golden shield, which noticeably cut off the connection between the frozen beam and Sheyan.
The rhombus frost dagger collided against the dark-golden shield, and in this instance, the dagger’s rip rapidly dissolved through the shield. Shockingly, a layer of frost enveloped Reef and his shield, turning them into an azure ice sculpture.
Yet in the next second, the dark-golden shield flourished with dazzling brilliance, before the phantom of a sphinx appeared. Roaring thunderously, the sphinx swung out its claw.
The scorching sunset seemed to condense onto its phantom claw, which imprinted down onto the shield, which modelled like the scorching sun. In this moment, ice and frost melted away. Reef stood before Sheyan like a majestic and arrogant mountain rain, before coldly declaring.
"Those who wishe to touch my comrades, will have to trample over my dead body first!"
"You’re an……MT?" Drizzt’s pupils momentarily shrunk, but heightened with blazing intensity. "I actually get to finish off an MT here?"
Meanwhile, Mogensha had similarly seized the opportunity where Reef’s ‘Shattering Cardiac Roar’ was still affecting the surrounding opponents. He hurled out his ‘Silver Sparta Spear’, which morphed into a chain lightning and bounced through his opponents with unrivalled deadliness.
While his ‘Sparta Spear’ was jolting through and paralyzing his foes, Mogensha successfully retreated into the besiding cluster of buildings.
He obviously wasn’t escaping but going to fulfil his mission - to tie up the hidden sniper residing at the vantage point! For such an intense battle like this, letting a sniper have free reign would be undoubtedly fatal. Honestly speaking, to the current Mogensha, such a mission was exceedingly arduous but he never feared taking up such challenges.
Up till now, Drizzt failed to anticipate two things.
Firstly, he didn’t expect his illusion master to be seen through by the enemy, and even be slain!
Secondly, he couldn’t have expected that a tiny trio of contestants, would actually have an indomitable MT dwelling amongst them. If he did, he absolutely wouldn’t have permitted his four subordinates to swarm forward! In the end, they were all caught off guard by the MT’s ability to impair their speed, leading to the opposing gunmen\'s escape.
Nevertheless, Drizzt remained confident of achieving victory!
Boom! A sonorous rumbled echoed from the top of a nearby building. Black spiralling fumes could be seen spiralling out from the seventh floor of that building. Indeed, while that sniper was attempting to fire off, Brother Black had catapulted a rifle grenade over.
Although such an attack wasn’t fatal, the dejected sniper could no longer concentrate on aiming and sniping foes.
Though his opponent was equally a contestant, to Mogensha who had amassed years of combat experience and technicalities, killing and taking cover from a young age, he was truly much superior to most other gunmen contestants!
With Reef guarding his back, Sheyan gritted his teeth and pounded against a besiding wall. Instantly, he created a new channel of mobility, as a part of the wall crumbled into a pile of rubble. The two then swiftly retreated into that mini-mart.
Meanwhile, Drizzt’s lips curled into a malevolent smirk. "Trying to play me with such gimmicks?"
He waved his hand in signal, as his four subordinates quickly encircled around that particular mini-mart. Then, Drizzt leapt onto the second floor balcony of the lateral building, as two rhombus daggers condensed onto his hands.
Drizzt’s four subordinates obviously wouldn’t charge into the mini-mart, as that would be pure idiocy. Instead, those four possessed certain long range combat capabilities as well; such as shotguns, hand grenades and what not. Then, that started bombarding the mini-mart fanatically.
Although such reckless assaults wouldn’t be that useful, it would still offer a slight amount of damage.
Drizzt was someone incredibly adept and formidable in ice element abilities. Once his opponents resurfaces, their speed would be inevitably hampered, before he would proceed to drag them, bit by bit, to their deaths. All these, while he observes the despair on his opponents’ faces. This was something that Drizzt loved doing the most.
