Chapter 1 南狼's End

Seeing this, Nanlang knew the situation was hopeless, his heart filled with unwillingness and indignation.

Now they only had twenty-some people left, all of them mages and healers, with him as the only melee class. Facing the thirty-plus main force members of the Zero Wing Guild, there was no chance of turning the tide.

The astonishing sword strike that Hei Yan had displayed far exceeded Nanlang's imagination. Not only was it incredibly fast, but his skill usage was also extremely refined. One move was enough to encompass all the rangers. This required an extremely high level of control over skills and angles of attack.

Nanlang wasn't a fool. He had been in the virtual gaming world for more than just a year or two. As a messenger for Underworld, he had seen and recruited countless gaming experts and participated in many guild wars, so he could be considered experienced and knowledgeable.

He naturally could see Hei Yan's strategy from the start of the battle until now.

Using Guardian Knights and Shield Warriors, tank classes with high health, to charge and gather the Dark Star members, but the female priest of Zero Wing, Ziyan Liuyun, was too effective with her healing. Her healing output seemed to be only twice that of Dark Star's healers, but the effect she had in the guild battle far exceeded three or four healers.

Moreover, Ziyan Liuyun's grasp of the battle situation was very precise. She could take care of the Guardian Knight, Kele, and stabilize the life values of others. Her operating skills were so calm and skilled, which showed that she was no ordinary person.

Zero Wing Guild already had a powerful Guild Leader Huowu, and also the number one person on the level rankings, Heizi. Now Nanlang suddenly realized that Zero Wing not only had Huowu and Heizi, but also Kele and Ziyan Liuyun, who were first-rate experts. As for the others, they were not weaklings either, all of them experts.

And the suddenly emerged Hei Yan was even more terrifying. The strength he displayed even surpassed all of them by a large margin, resembling the style of a god-level expert, Yefeng, who could kill hundreds of people alone.

Nanlang really couldn't imagine why so many experts would gather in a newly established guild like Zero Wing.

According to this strength, even if a new guild was established by a large consortium, it wouldn't be possible to reach this level in such a short period of time, gathering so many experts.

He really didn't know how Hei Yan managed to do it.

Although Nanlang was shocked by Hei Yan's powerful personal strength and that he, like Heizi, possessed a tactical skill that could affect a guild battle, but...

"Guild Leader Hei Yan, although you are powerful, even if our elite team of a hundred people cannot deal with you thirty-some people, the entire Silverleaf Forest has been completely controlled by Dark Star. More than three thousand people have already surrounded this place. Do you think you can still get out? You are just delaying the time you will be completely wiped out," Nanlang looked at Shifeng and sneered repeatedly, not caring at all about the many elite members who had already died.

"Let's go. When Guild Leader Weiyi arrives, it will be their death," Since they were no match, Nanlang naturally wouldn't continue to fight and increase the losses.

The fact that they were able to discover the Guild Leader Hei Yan of Zero Wing here was not worth mentioning compared to the losses that the deaths of those elite members caused to the Dark Star Guild.

As long as Hei Yan died, it would cause a considerable blow to Zero Wing Guild's reputation and prestige.

"Come and go as you please, do you really think the Silverleaf Forest is your home?" Shifeng smiled faintly, a cold killing intent flowing in his eyes. "Since you've all chased us here, then leave all of you here."

"Do you think you can keep me here?" Nanlang sneered in disdain. He was an Assassin, the class with the strongest survival ability in the wild. Hiding in this dense forest, who could find him?

"Then you can try it. If you can escape one person today, I will let you go," Shifeng waved his hand, and the thirty-plus members of Zero Wing rushed up and began to chase Nanlang and the others.

Nanlang had not participated in the battle all along in order to leave himself a way out. This was his habit. If he entered a combat state, then he wouldn't be able to use Stealth. He could only use the Vanish skill to enter a Stealth state, but Vanish was a life-saving skill, so he wouldn't use it unless it was absolutely necessary. It could save his life at a critical moment.

Facing the crowd rushing over, Nanlang revealed a look of disdain and was about to use the Stealth skill to hide in the dense forest.

"What's going on?" Nanlang suddenly realized that he couldn't use skills, like a prisoner deprived of freedom. He frantically pulled up the skill bar to check the reason.

"Boss Nanlang, we can't use any skills, what should we do?" The elementium masters of Dark Star were terrified.

Originally, they wanted to use ice walls to restrain the Zero Wing crowd rushing over, but now they couldn't use any skills. An elementium master who couldn't use skills was like a lamb waiting to be slaughtered. Apart from being killed to buy time for others, they were useless.

"Run first," Nanlang didn't understand what was going on. It was likely that the system was malfunctioning. Since they couldn't use any skills, then they could only run with their legs.

When it came to speed, Nanlang, as an Assassin, had considerable confidence.

But as soon as he turned around to run, he suddenly found that his movement speed had slowed down a lot, and so had everyone else.

"What exactly is going on?" Seeing the Zero Wing crowd getting closer and closer, Nanlang was anxious, but there was nothing he could do.

A black shadow rushed past like a whirlwind, surpassing Kele and the others who were chasing, and caught up with the fleeing Dark Star crowd.

This person was Shifeng.

Shifeng's agility was as high as 240+, and he also had various equipment bonuses. When it came to movement speed, Shifeng was at the peak of Star-Moon, and no one could match him.

"I said you can't escape," Shifeng used Silent Steps and appeared behind Nanlang like a ghost, saying softly.

When Shifeng was talking to Nanlang, he quietly used the Seven Luminaries Ring, turning the Fire Ring into the Time Ring.

The Time Ring allowed players to reduce the cooldown time of all skills by 20%, reduce the movement speed and attack speed of enemies within a 100-yard radius by 20%, increase the skill cooldown time by 20%, and possessed the skill Absolute Time, preventing enemies within a 50*50 yard range from using any skills or items, lasting 20 seconds, cooldown time 3 minutes.

Using Absolute Time to envelop the entire area around Nanlang, preventing them from using any skills or items within 20 seconds, which meant that Nanlang, who only had mages left, didn't even have the ability to resist or escape.

It could be said that when Nanlang and the others stepped into this dense forest, their lives were already in Shifeng's hands.

"What did he do?" Nanlang looked at Shifeng appearing behind him, shocked.

Before Nanlang could think about it carefully, the Abyss Blade in Shifeng's hand was unsheathed.

Several silver-gray rays pierced through several vital points on Nanlang's body. Facing Nanlang, who was wearing leather armor, each silver-gray ray that Shifeng swung could cause more than 500 points of damage. A critical hit would be more than 1,000, and the Mysterious-Iron grade armor on Nanlang's body was like tofu, easily pierced and its durability greatly reduced. After two or three swords, it directly became scrap.

And because Nanlang was still in shock, Shifeng's attack was as fast as lightning. He swung seven or eight swords in one face-to-face encounter. By the time Nanlang reacted, his two thousand plus life points were gone.

In an instant, Nanlang's vision turned deathly gray, and his body fell to the ground involuntarily, with a look of shock and incomprehension on his face.

Because Nanlang had not participated in the battle before, his name was still white. He only dropped one piece of equipment and lost one level. However, Shifeng's attack was not that simple. The reason why Shifeng didn't use skill attacks but used ordinary normal attacks was to destroy the equipment on Nanlang's body.

By the time Nanlang died, nearly half of the equipment on Nanlang's body had been ruined, and now he had dropped another piece, which was a heavy loss.
