Chapter 2575: The Summoner
Chapter 2575: The Summoner
But they had encountered a horde of Lickers.
A large number of summoned creatures were blocked by a swarm of Lickers at the passage exit, unable to move forward or retreat, causing great discomfort.
With no choice, they could only grind their way through.
Eh?
Suddenly, Fiana felt a jolt in her heart, her keen instincts sensing an impending danger. She turned back to look at her rear team.
What was happening?
The backline was in chaos.
Due to the multitude of summoned creatures, Fiana's entire team had stretched out long, making it difficult to see what was going on behind them.
She could sense a powerful holy aura surging from the rear.
Was it the Holy Realm?
When did such enemies appear in the mausoleum of Empress Persephone?
This was bad!
The aura from the Holy Realm was extremely strong; her subordinate team would likely be unable to withstand it!
Fiana quickly concluded that the situation was dire and immediately headed toward the rear to provide reinforcement.
At that moment, at the tail end of Fiana's team, Fang Heng single-handedly wielded a great holy sword, surrounded by a dense mass of blood-red spikes, as he charged into the undead summoners, wreaking havoc!
The undead summoners unleashed various negative effects at Fang Heng. He immunized himself against a portion of them, while the passive wave effects of the great holy sword purified another segment. The remaining effects, however, he stubbornly endured.
"Buzz...!"
With a sweeping strike of the great holy sword, a large number of summoned creatures and undead summoners were hit by the wave effect, pushing them back. Fang Heng's retina was flooded with damage and experience points notifications.
What a rush!
Killing summoned creatures also granted him experience points from the Death God bloodline!
The undead summoners lacked normal attack skills and primarily had summoning and negative effect abilities.
The negative effects inflicted on Fang Heng had already stacked to their limit, so they could only rely on their summoning skills.
The battlefield had quickly turned into a pure war of attrition.
After clearing a section of summoned creatures with his great holy sword, another wave rapidly filled the passage.
Previously, Fiana's team had used this tactic to exhaust their enemies effectively.
But Fang Heng loved dealing with these summoned creatures.
Although the experience points per individual were low, their sheer numbers made up for it!
And it was incredibly easy to grind them.
Much simpler!
What a missed opportunity!
Fang Heng thought to himself that if he had known this team would be so easy to farm, he wouldn't have bothered pulling so hard with Collete earlier.
Suddenly, Fang Heng's brow furrowed as he sensed a powerful force approaching.
That woman!
He caught a glimpse of a long-haired woman surrounded at the center by several Dark Clan warriors.
Evil Summoning Technique!
Fiana focused her gaze on Fang Heng, gripping her crimson scepter tightly.
Whoosh!
More than a dozen powerful vengeful spirits surged forth from the scepter!
The vengeful spirit creatures charged straight toward Fang Heng.
"Whoosh!!!"
Fang Heng waited until the vengeful spirits were within striking range, then abruptly turned, swinging the great holy sword forward with force!
"Boom!"
The great holy sword smashed into a giant-sized vengeful spirit, exploding it with a single strike!
"Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!"
Huh?
Fang Heng felt a jolt in his chest.
[Hint: The player was affected by the soul explosion effect, the player's HP -220,000 points. The player experienced a spirit explosion effect; the player's mental strength was reduced by one-third of its maximum value.]
The damage was substantial!
As the vengeful spirit exploded, it also inflicted a mental explosion effect, instantly draining a third of his mental strength.
And it wasn't over yet!
After the vengeful spirit life form shattered, its explosive aura quickly condensed in the air, forming smaller vengeful spirit creatures that lunged at him again!
Interesting!
Fang Heng stepped back a few paces.
Fortunately, he wasn't relying on his mental strength for battle, otherwise, he would have
been in real trouble.
He raised his great holy sword once more and swung it forward with force!
Whoosh! Whoosh!
With nearly twenty consecutive swings of his sword, using the wave effect of the great holy sword, he finally cleared the repeatedly split vengeful spirits after seven divisions.
"Boom! Boom! Boom!"
[Hint: The player killed a split vengeful spirit (elite), gaining 880 experience points from the
Death God bloodline...]
[Hint: The player killed a split vengeful spirit (elite), gaining 880 experience points from the Death God bloodline...]
Immediately, a flurry of game notifications flooded his retina!
Great!
What a rush!
Each split vengeful spirit provided 880 experience points!
Fang Heng tilted his head to glance at Fiana, who was not far away and casting the vengeful spirit summoning skill, throwing her a provocative look.
"This guy... is he trying to provoke me?"
A flash of anger crossed Fiana's eyes.
Let's see how long you can hold out!
Fiana infused her mental strength into her scepter, again unleashing the undead summoning
skill.
This time, she channeled even more mental strength, directly summoning over twenty split vengeful spirits that roared as they charged toward Fang Heng!n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
Haha!
Perfect timing!
Fang Heng watched the split vengeful spirits come rushing at him, excitement surging within
him as he raised the great holy sword and charged forward again!
...
Meanwhile, in the higher echelons of the undead council, the instructors watched through the
mirror as the two invader teams converged. They saw Fang Heng quickly retreating and
couldn't help but silently commend him.
He knew when to advance and when to pull back, aware that the enemy was on guard, and immediately switched targets to attack the remaining two teams.
Such a strategy was incredibly clever!
But soon, Fang Heng's subsequent actions left them puzzled again.
Everyone knew that the best way to deal with summoners was to eliminate the summoner
directly.
They were aware that Fang Heng had this capability.
By leveraging his spatial ability to quickly close the distance to the enemy, and with his
vampire powers and great holy sword, he could certainly secure a kill.
So why wasn't he doing that?
Why waste time against these summoned creatures?
Was he stalling for time?
Yet the other two teams were rapidly closing in on the mausoleum; stalling one team
wouldn't be effective at all!
The undead instructors were confused about the purpose of Fang Heng's actions, but Tan Shuo and Li Shaoqiang below exchanged knowing glances, displaying wry smiles.
Mr. Fang was still Mr. Fang; he could find a way to farm experience points anytime!
"Chairman, we have new discoveries."
Just as the undead council members were filled with doubt, an instructor hurriedly approached, glancing at the others, "Chairman, based on the photos provided by Tan Shuo
and Li Shaoqiang, combined with the recent translation updates, we've obtained some
information."
"Hmm, what have you found? Speak directly."
"The Hanu clan has risen in rebellion. They've allied with outsiders from the death realm to
overthrow Empress Persephone's rule. We've obtained a name from this: Disaster."
Upon hearing this, the crowd frowned.
"Go on."
The undead instructor took a deep breath, "From the descriptions, we believe that this
Disaster refers to what we know as Ouroboros."
Instantly, the Great Hall fell silent, save for the rustling sounds from Let and his translation
team as they worked.
Disaster?!
It was actually the disaster, Ouroboros!
Even the death realm was facing a disaster!
