Chapter 26 White Mist Canyon

After everyone was affected by the mana ban, only physical-type classes could display considerable combat power; magic-type classes could only watch.

Youlan was obviously prepared. With a Smiling倾城 totaling two thousand people, nearly two-thirds were physical-type classes.

Moreover, Smiling倾城’s offensive was very organized. At the very front were shield warriors and guardian knights, followed by berserkers, swordsmen, and assassins, with rangers standing at the very back using bows and arrows to shoot.

The entire avenue leading to the exit of White Mist Canyon instantly became an ancient battlefield.

“Charge towards the left side,” Shi Feng said, taking the lead towards the less populated area on the left.

The others followed suit.

However, before Shi Feng and the others could run a few yards, a barrage of arrows came flying, numbering several hundred.

The three magic-type members of Lan Shuyun’s team were too weak in terms of agility and strength attributes, and normally magic-type classes never dodged in combat, always staying in the back row to output damage. After a wave of arrows, they directly collapsed on the ground, each dropping a piece of equipment.

“Xiao Mo, Haozi, Qiangzi!” Lan Shuyun watched as her teammates, who had been fine just a moment ago, were now dead. A hint of bloodlust appeared in her eyes as she tightly gripped her shield and stared at the Smiling倾城 members in front of her, suddenly charging forward. “Die!”

Although Lan Shuyun’s equipment and level were decent, how could one person possibly fight against three to five shield warriors and guardian knights of similar level and equipment?

Lan Shuyun was directly blocked by Smiling倾城’s people, unable to break through to their back ranks at all.

The other two members of Lan Shuyun’s team were the same as Lan Shuyun. No matter how they attacked, the opponents gave them no chance, constantly forcing Lan Shuyun’s team to retreat.

However, before Lan Shuyun’s team could retreat a few steps, they saw two figures flash past them, bombarding the MT (main tank) at the very front of Smiling倾城.

The most dazzling of the two figures was Fire Dance. The dazzling Truefire Edge, the firelight flowing and transforming into a blaze, bombarded the level 23 MT’s shield. The MT was directly knocked back more than ten steps, and even the members behind him also retreated a few steps before stabilizing. Fire Dance followed up with another sword strike at the guardian knight next to him, and that guardian knight was directly sent flying five or six yards away, landing on the ground and knocking over a group of people.

This power was simply terrifying!

With just one sword strike, she immediately broke through Smiling倾城’s formation. Her strength was like a female war god, leaving Smiling倾城’s members speechless.

While Smiling倾城’s people were still in shock, Fire Dance’s figure darted everywhere, the Truefire Edge in her hand drawing streaks of red light. Wherever the red light passed, Smiling倾城’s members were sent flying, and no one could block Fire Dance’s sword.

In just a short while, Smiling倾城’s intercepting formation was completely disintegrated.

It wasn’t that Smiling倾城’s people weren’t attacking Fire Dance, but Fire Dance’s speed was too fast. Before Smiling倾城’s people could swing their weapons, Fire Dance herself had run to the other side to attack other people, never staying in one place for long, giving Smiling倾城 no time to surround her.

Smiling倾城’s people couldn’t attack Fire Dance at all, but Fire Dance could easily attack them. Just a casual sword strike could deal nearly a thousand points of damage to a level 23 MT. If she accidentally triggered a critical hit, or the flame status, one sword strike could deal more than two thousand points of damage.

Smiling倾城’s elite MTs generally had a health of around 4300, and some with better equipment had around 4500. Fire Dance only needed four or five sword strikes to take them down.

Compared to Fire Dance’s ferocity, Flying Shadow wasn’t bad either. Although each attack wasn’t as terrifying as Fire Dance’s, each attack could still deal more than seven hundred damage to an MT.

Fire Dance and Flying Shadow were completely in a realm of their own, rampaging in all directions. Smiling倾城’s players couldn’t even dream of hurting them, and it was difficult even to catch their figures.

First-tier classes were already much stronger than zero-tier classes. Even if they couldn’t use skills, their attributes were overwhelming. Not to mention that Fire Dance’s and Flying Shadow’s equipment was much better than Smiling倾城’s elite members.

In addition, the Seven Luminaries Ring that Shi Feng had activated was the Ring of Time. Although mana was banned and skills and magic couldn’t be used, the passive effect wouldn’t be affected, reducing the movement speed and attack speed of enemies within a 150-yard radius by 30%. For the melee combat on both sides, this effect undoubtedly made Smiling倾城 even more passive.

Shi Feng himself was responsible for protecting Water Rose and the other magic-type classes as they slowly advanced.

Originally, this job was supposed to be given to Flying Shadow, but his attributes were now reduced by 80%, and his attributes were similar to those of ordinary level 20 players. In addition, he couldn’t use skills. Melee combat relied on attributes and skills, so the effect he displayed was much worse than Fire Dance and Flying Shadow. So he simply took charge of blocking arrow attacks.

In just a short while, Fire Dance and Flying Shadow had cleared a bloody path that Shi Feng and the others could pass through.

“How can that Fire Dance be so strong?”

The lone狂, who was watching the battle from afar, looked at the unstoppable Fire Dance in disbelief, clenching his fists tightly. He couldn’t believe that this was real. He had seen Fire Dance’s strength before. Although Fire Dance was indeed a top expert, she shouldn’t be at the point where no one could block her sword.

Moreover, Fire Dance was just an assassin, not a strength-type class, but at this moment, she was even fiercer than a berserker known for their strength. It was still somewhat understandable when she dealt with MTs, at least four or five sword strikes, but when dealing with assassins of the same class, one sword strike would take away half their health, and a critical hit would be an instant kill, scaring those assassins into not daring to approach at all.

“Zero Wing Guild is indeed a troublesome existence.”

Youlan looked at Fire Dance’s shocking performance, her face somewhat grave. She hadn’t considered Fire Dance and the others as combat power in her previous calculations. In the face of melee combat against two thousand players, even top experts had limited effect, but she hadn’t expected Fire Dance and Flying Shadow to emerge.

“Kill! The people in the back follow up, we absolutely can’t let them escape!” Youlan said anxiously.

Originally, Hei Yan (Black Flame) was troublesome enough, but now Fire Dance had emerged, and there was also Flying Shadow, who was slightly weaker. If she didn’t kill these three people once today and stop their growth, they would be even more difficult to deal with in the future.

The more she watched Fire Dance and Flying Shadow rampaging in all directions, the more Youlan felt that God’s Domain was different from previous virtual reality games. Compared to the massive number of players, top combat power was the core of God’s Domain.

The other members of Smiling倾城 from other directions accelerated their speed and rushed over. However, due to the influence of the Ring of Time, Smiling倾城’s members couldn’t keep up with Shi Feng and the others in terms of movement speed, and were instead getting further and further away.

On the other hand, the number of Smiling倾城 members blocking Shi Feng and the others from escaping on the left was decreasing, and they could only watch as Shi Feng and the others gradually escaped danger.

Just when Shi Feng and the others thought they could escape the encirclement, a black shadow suddenly emerged from the crowd and charged straight at Shi Feng. It was the level 26 assassin, Summer Sunshine.

Even with the slowing effect of the Ring of Time, his speed was still astonishing, and he quickly caught up to Shi Feng, who was covering Water Rose and the others’ retreat.

“You will stay behind!” Summer Sunshine blocked Shi Feng’s path, smiling mischievously.
