The player of Digital stared at the opponent's attributes, dumbfounded. Good heavens, both their professions and skills were quite formidable.
Was this the strength of the Second Guild?
Han Ying Mie, Han Ying Long, Han Ying Guang, and Han Ying Po Mie's professions were: Gale Assassin, Fighter, Master Archer, and Dual Shield respectively.
Gale Assassin was a branch of the assassin profession. Fighter was the most powerful type of fighter. Master Archer was a type of archer. Dual Shield was a branch of the shield profession. This four-person team formed a unit that could advance and attack or retreat and defend. Moreover, their professions held a degree of counterplay against Digital and his teammates.
Digital and his three teammates exchanged glances with the opposing four, then all rushed forward. Team battles were a test of collective coordination.
Digital chose Han Ying Mie, the Gale Assassin, as his opponent. Gale Assassins were the most unpredictable type of assassin, their speed allowing them to appear anywhere—that was the hallmark of this profession!
Han Ying Mie, however, did not choose to engage Digital. His target was clear: Qing Ling. As an assassin, why would he attack a mage head-on instead of focusing on them?
Digital decisively drew his sword, but an arrow instantly shot out. With a bang, it exploded, and Digital was forced back.
It was the opponent's Master Archer, Han Ying Guang. Han Ying Guang stood atop a coconut tree, drawing his bowstring and nocking an arrow, ready to fire at any moment.
Digital understood the opponent's intention. Their Master Archer clearly aimed for attrition, while the Fighter, Han Ying Po Mie, focused on tangling with Gezi. Hong Mo was matched against the Dual Shield user, Han Ying Long.
Without Digital's protection, Qing Ling was instantly exposed to Han Ying Mie's gaze. However, Qing Ling reacted swiftly. Their magic staff moved, and instantly, a magic array appeared beneath the feet of the four players. In an instant, the positions of all four changed.
Digital's original position was now occupied by Hong Mo. Gezi's position was now Digital's. Qing Ling's position became Gezi's, and Qing Ling herself appeared where Hong Mo had been.
"Swap Magic!"
The four spoke in unison. To be able to cast such an advanced spell was astonishing. The opponents were truly formidable.
Then, the four looked at each other, intending to swap positions again. But how could Qing Ling allow them to succeed?
A castle pattern appeared on the magic array, a nine-pointed star formation. Then, with a rumbling sound, the entire island began to shake. Walls rose from beneath the ground, reaching high into the sky.
The walls divided the battlefield into four sections. Qing Ling then looked at Han Ying Long before her, preparing for battle.
In the other areas, Digital and his two companions unleashed their full might. The players of the Han Ying Guild were stunned. A castle magic! Good heavens, wasn't this person a magic controller? How could they possibly know such magic!
Although they didn't seem to be fully proficient, this magic had indeed divided the battlefield.
Digital looked at Han Ying Po Mie. His opponent was a Fighter, while Digital was a sword-wielding class, which held a certain advantage.
Digital decisively drew his sword and began to dance with it. Stepping forward, he instantly appeared before Han Ying Po Mie and swung his sword down.
Han Ying Po Mie snapped back to reality and roared, "Do you think I'm afraid of you?"
He swung his fists, and with a terrifying force, his punches flew directly towards Digital's sword.
With a crash, the sword struck Han Ying Po Mie's fists. A silver sheen covered his fists, making them appear as hard as steel.
Digital decisively retreated, knowing his opponent had activated an ability. He dared not prolong the engagement.
But Han Ying Po Mie would not let Digital go easily. He pushed off with his legs, bursting forward with incredible speed towards Digital. Digital reacted instantly, unleashing a torrent of sword energy that shot towards Han Ying Po Mie. Han Ying Po Mie swung his fists, deflecting countless sword energies, as if his fists were made of steel.
Then, Digital held his longsword in hand, observing it carefully. He looked at his opponent's fists, and his eyes seemed to see something. He then launched an offensive.
A Fighter's greatest strengths were their fists and close-combat ability. If Digital could maintain distance, he would have the advantage.
But now, Digital was charging towards his opponent. What was his plan?
Digital appeared before Han Ying Po Mie, his longsword sweeping horizontally towards his opponent's palm. Han Ying Po Mie was stunned. His weakness had been seen through so easily.
It seemed this opponent was not simple! But he still had a way. Silver light filled his arms, and with a sudden motion, he grabbed the hilt of Digital's sword with both hands.
Digital was stunned. His opponent had a contingency plan! Just as he was about to let go of his sword and escape, Digital spun his body. Han Ying Po Mie repeatedly swung Digital's longsword, and with a loud crash, Digital was smashed against the wall and then fell.
His health dropped by 15%. Digital slowly got up. His opponent was proving to be quite troublesome.
Indeed, player versus player combat was about calculation and wisdom. Whoever fell for a trap first would lose.
But Digital was not discouraged in the slightest. His spirit became tense. His fighting style was not one of calculation; he could only break through with sheer force!
His longsword slowly appeared in his hand, and then black and white spiritual energy emanated from his body, the terrifying flow of energy affecting the surrounding air.
Han Ying Po Mie realized Digital was getting serious. He too was enveloped in a black and gray glow, his skin appearing as if composed of black and gray hues.
His body became even more hardened, and his fists swelled.
Fighter Abilities: Strength Enhancement, Body Enhancement!
The true battle between Digital and Han Ying Po Mie was about to begin. The two exploded with incredible speed and collided.
Rumbling sounds echoed throughout the battlefield. Digital's sword attacked from tricky angles with every strike: a lift, a thrust, a slash, a cut, a chop. His arms moved constantly, but Han Ying Po Mie blocked each attack with his arms.
With his body enhanced, his defense had increased by a full 2.5 times. Simultaneously, strength enhancement made his attacks even more fearsome.
Digital did not dare to directly withstand his opponent's punches, only using his longsword to defend, deflecting the force like Tai Chi, causing Han Ying Po Mie's attacks to do no substantial damage, their power continuously diminishing.
Seizing an opportunity, Digital’s longsword slashed down towards Han Ying Po Mie's head. Han Ying Po Mie crossed his arms, and instantly, a black and gray shield appeared from his skin.
The sword struck the shield, and Digital was sent flying back. He stabilized himself, but Han Ying Po Mie was already behind him, unleashing a punch towards Digital's back.
Digital retreated once more, then plunged the tip of his longsword into the ground, leaving a scratch as he stabilized himself.
He then spoke, "You forced me to get serious!"
Then, a black and white phantom slowly appeared behind Digital. The phantom was faint, but between the two phantoms, a spectral longsword connected them, and then the entire phantom image vanished.
Digital's body also changed. In Han Ying Po Mie's eyes, Digital's appearance was completely different from before. Black and white curly hair, black and white pupils, black and white patterns covered his entire body. The longswords in his hands were slowly enveloped by black and white energy, entwined by black and white patterns.
Then Digital looked at Han Ying Po Mie and said, "Fifteen minutes is enough!"
In this form, Digital could not maintain control for long, only for fifteen minutes. But for Digital, these fifteen minutes were sufficient.
Instantly, he gripped the longsword with both hands. A black and white line of light appeared from the ground.
Han Ying Po Mie exclaimed, "What kind of monster is this? How can there be such a hidden profession!"
Han Ying Po Mie looked at the opponent's appearance. A profession that changed his appearance? He had never heard of such a thing! Even hidden professions shouldn't have such capabilities.
But Digital was already before him. Han Ying Po Mie decisively attacked. At this point, he could only fight with all his might.
Then, the two turned into streaks of light and collided on the ground. In the collisions, Digital continuously gained the upper hand.
The longsword seemed alive, possessing its own will. Every move Digital made carried a peculiar aura that instilled reverence in Han Ying Po Mie, thus weakening his strength.
As the longsword swept towards him, Han Ying Po Mie reacted. He crossed his legs in a scissor kick, and a gray blade energy shot out, colliding with the black and white sword edge.
Han Ying Po Mie was sent flying back, crashing into the wall. His health dropped by a full 45%.
Han Ying Po Mie looked at the damage his opponent had dealt. This person's damage was too outrageous. He had lost nearly 11563 health, even with his 800 armor! This person was terrifying!
Han Ying Po Mie then pondered and made a decision. Whether he won or lost, he would gamble. He was no match for the opponent, and prolonging the fight would be suicidal.
Then, his fists began to converge, their trajectories crisscrossing like Tai Chi, simultaneously separating and coming together. Instantly, power gathered on his palms, which gradually turned the color of steel, as if his palms were made of steel.
Then he pushed out with his palms. The steel palms spun, and a silver Tai Chi palm rotated towards Digital. Seeing this, Digital raised his longsword, channeling black and white energy and aura into it. Then he struck down, and the longsword directly cut into the Tai Chi palm.
Steel Palms, Tai Chi Yin Yang, Earth Shattering.
Black and White Sword, Divine Demon Power, Sword like the Heavens.
Fighter Skill: Wave Annihilation Palm!
Weapon Skill: Divine Demon Sword!
Then their moves collided. Instantly, the longsword cut the palm's Tai Chi in half and then headed towards Han Ying Po Mie.
Han Ying Po Mie instantly realized he had nowhere to retreat. This sword sealed off all his escape routes. He could not dodge it.
He then cried out in panic, "Monster, what monster! How can there be such a profession! Impossible!"
Instantly, his body was annihilated under the longsword, turning into specks of starlight. Digital then looked up at the sky, seeing through the entire ninety-nine-story world. In the vast universe, a star slowly flickered and then went dormant.
Qing Ling seemed to sense something and said, "Awakened? No, not yet. Is it because the time is not right?"
Qing Ling's distraction allowed the opponent to seize an opportunity. With a bang, countless chains shattered, and Dual Shields appeared in his hands. Han Ying Long directly grabbed the Dual Shields and smashed them down at Qing Ling.
But Qing Ling was protected by a massive energy shield. The opponent's attack dealt no damage to it.
Han Ying Long was repelled by the backlash of the energy shield. He looked at the young girl before him. Good heavens! What profession was she? She had cast no less than dozens of spells since before, and they were from different mage classes! How perverted was that!
Qing Ling snapped back to attention, saying with disinterest, "Uninteresting. You should remain bound!"
The magic staff tapped the ground once. Instantly, a magic array appeared beneath Han Ying Long's feet. Nine-colored chains instantly bound his entire body.
Han Ying Long was bewildered. Did she not need a casting time? How did she complete the magic array so quickly? Was she even human?
Trapped, Han Ying Long could not move. He looked at the girl before him, hoping his other teammates would come to his aid.
He could not break free from these chains and could only wait.
Qing Ling then looked up at the sky. In her eyes, four starlights flickered slightly and then went dormant.
She then said, "I hope this time it can trigger your seal!"
Then she looked at the wall behind her. Behind that wall was Gezi's battlefield.
Gezi was dueling Han Ying Guang. Han Ying Guang weaved through the trees. As an archer, he could not engage in melee combat. He needed to find an opportunity to harass, then seize the chance for a fatal shot.
Gezi took out his shield and placed it before him. His opponent's profession was one he countered. Gezi was not in a hurry to attack. An archer's mobility was far greater than his own. He had to wait for the opponent to reveal a weakness before striking.
*Whizz, whizz.* Several arrows shot towards Gezi. They struck his shield, and Gezi stumbled back a few steps. Gezi was well aware of his opponent's abilities. These arrows had a knockback effect.
The Master Archer's ability was to imbue arrows with armor-piercing and knockback effects.
Gezi was well aware of his opponent's skills, so he was not in a hurry, waiting for the opportune moment.
