Chapter 235 Apple

Han Jia Gongzi, in the thick of battle, was shaking his head. Even Falling Flower in the Mirror could see how much trouble Gu Fei’s apple-eating retreat had caused, so how could he not know? Actually, from the start, Han Jia Gongzi hadn’t considered Gu Fei as their hope. He knew Gu Fei’s mana wasn’t enough to break through the encirclement. If the encirclement had been made by players, it would have been easier. Gu Fei’s damage output, shouting 'Twin Incineration', would have been enough to scare them off, but these were system bandits, much more fearless than players.

Countless people were feeling helpless about Gu Fei! Suddenly, Gu Fei seemed to awaken again, holding the apple and jumping back into the fray. He waved Dark Night, Light Stream, and while spitting out the apple, began chanting. The flames of Twin Incineration burned fiercely, creating a circle. The players were dumbfounded, and when they came to their senses, they all turned their attention to the half-eaten apple Gu Fei had thrown on the ground.

What kind of apple was this? Had it restored his mana in such a short time? Many people struggled to restrain the urge to pick up the half-apple and take a look.

Gu Fei’s performance was far from over. He returned to the formation, and Xi Yao Wu immediately came to cooperate with him, also asking strangely, "You have mana so quickly?"

"Yeah, it’s really strange!" Gu Fei was also puzzled. In the time it took to speak, the mana in his body was constantly recovering. His knowledge of the game was too shallow for him to explain it. All he could do was seize the time to use it. He raised Dark Night, Light Stream, and pointed to the flank, chanting, "Wall of Lightning, descend!"

Instantly, the air thinned, and electricity crackled, dazzling the flank for a long time. The players were all frightened, but nothing happened.

Gu Fei was at a loss. Judging by the momentum, it should have woven into a wall of lightning, but in the end, there was nothing?

Han Jia Gongzi saw Gu Fei using magic so arrogantly and felt something was amiss. Moreover, he had seen the tacit cooperation between Gu Fei and Xi Yao Wu many times, so he quickly sent him a message: "Use an area-of-effect spell, blast a path!"

"Right away!" Gu Fei replied briefly. Wall of Lightning consumed a lot of mana, and his mana was insufficient at the moment, but the recovery hadn’t stopped. Before long, it had risen again. Gu Fei didn’t have time to think about it, and with a wave of his sword, he cast Fire Tree, Thousand Heavy Flames.

The slow spell activation hadn’t improved at all. A while after the chanting ended, flames rose from the ground. With a crash, a group of bandits fell, but Han Jia Gongzi was furious: "What are you doing with that? Use Heavenly Fire Ring!"

"Huh?" Gu Fei was stunned, then looked at the situation in front of him and immediately smacked his head.

Fire Tree, Thousand Heavy Flames had a five-second continuous burning effect. His reputation for instantly killing mages was well-known, so no players dared to step on the ground ignited by Fire Tree, Thousand Heavy Flames, but the bandits were fearless and rushed up, stepping on the sea of fire. In an instant, the empty space was filled again.

Gu Fei learned from his mistakes. After his mana was replenished, he raised his hand and cast Heavenly Fire Ring. A patch of ground was cleared again. This time, the players didn’t miss the opportunity and seized the time to cut in, finally tearing a gap in the bandits’ encirclement.

"Do you have more mana? Keep going!" Han Jia Gongzi shouted at Gu Fei.

"Endless!" Gu Fei said triumphantly. At this time, Heavenly Fire Ring hadn’t finished cooling down, so Gu Fei reached out and teleported into the bandit crowd, turned around with a swing of his sword, and used Twin Incineration, which cleared a small circle. Xi Yao Wu rushed into the circle with him at the first moment to maintain it, and the other players consciously followed in their footsteps.

"Okay! Here it comes again!" Gu Fei waved his sword and slashed a few people. Heavenly Fire Ring finished cooling down, so he immediately began chanting again. Those attacks that might have interrupted his chanting were all blocked by Xi Yao Wu, who was protecting him. The Fire Ring was successfully summoned and fell with a bang, clearing the ground again.

The players also became excited and came up together to protect Gu Fei in the middle, shouting, "Why are you still charging? Just kill all the monsters!"

"Good idea!" Gu Fei smiled at these players and cleared out a row with a Twin Incineration. He was obviously a little carried away. Just then, a message notification sounded. Gu Fei opened it and saw it was from Mang Mang De Mang Mang: "Hey, hurry up, my mana is running out."

Gu Fei was stunned and searched for Mang Mang De Mang Mang in the crowd. He quickly found her not far away. The girl was also rushing forward with the team, but she was holding her staff and pointing it at Gu Fei. Seeing Gu Fei looking over, she smiled and said, "Did you really think a pie fell from the sky?"

Although Gu Fei didn’t know what had happened, he knew his mana recovery had a great relationship with Mang Mang De Mang Mang. Listening to Mang Mang De Mang Mang’s words, this recovery couldn’t be endless, so he didn’t dare to squander it mindlessly.

As the saying goes, good steel should be used on the blade. Although Twin Incineration was fun and Gu Fei liked it, he knew that using Heavenly Fire Ring was more beneficial to the team. So he restrained his urge to kill people and, after Heavenly Fire Ring finished cooling down, honestly cast another one.

"Everyone, charge!" Gu Fei pointed forward with his sword, leading the charge like a commander. He was really worried that those players would be dead set on waiting for him to kill all the bandits.

The fact proved that the players weren’t so stubborn. Seeing that Gu Fei was still unswervingly following the route to break out of the encirclement, they continued to charge over.

Thus, Gu Fei used Heavenly Fire Ring to blast open a gap, and the players rushed to occupy the empty space, like a steel knife piercing straight into the bandit formation.

After Gu Fei cast Heavenly Fire Ring twice more, breaking through the encirclement was right in front of them. Mang Mang De Mang Mang’s mana had been exhausted, Gu Fei’s mana recovery stopped, and with half a bar of mana left, he could still use two more Heavenly Fire Rings.

The players were all delighted. As long as they opened such a passage, the players could continue to break through, and then spread out in the wide fields outside. What were these level 30 bandits worth?

Just as they were feeling good, a roar suddenly erupted from the bandit formation. So Tu finally erupted at this moment. He soared into the air, jumped over countless heads, and landed directly in front of Gu Fei, blocking the players’ path.

The players felt a chill in their hearts. So Tu, who had been in charge of commanding, was finally going to make a move?

Although So Tu’s subordinates were just a bunch of level 30 minions, this Boss was really strong, and he was the kind that was tied to a quest. Only by accepting the relevant quest and killing your way to the depths of Wulong Cave would you have a chance to encounter him. Otherwise, the depths of Wulong Cave would just be an empty room.

Quest Bosses were a bit stronger than wild Bosses of the same rank. This was the current understanding of the players.

It was said that when the generals of two armies were about to fight, the minions should stand aside and cheer, but So Tu’s minions were very unruly. Even though their boss had jumped over, they were still hacking and killing the players. The players continued to resist with all their might, but they didn’t know what to do with So Tu.

At this time, they were trapped in an encirclement within an encirclement. They were already overwhelmed by the surrounding monsters, and they really couldn’t spare the hands and feet to deal with the Boss. How could they deal with a Boss by just sending a few people? Usually, they made full preparations, matched their classes well, planned their cooperation, and still often died accidentally. What about the current chaotic situation where they couldn’t spare any manpower?

Just as the players were calculating whether to retreat for a moment, Gu Fei had already rushed up with his sword.

"Are you crazy!" Even Xi Yao Wu was surprised. No matter how tough she was, she didn’t think she had the strength to fight a Boss alone. She didn’t expect Gu Fei to dare to make such a feat.

"It’s not the first time, I’m very familiar with it." Gu Fei smiled back, and his figure had already slashed So Tu.

So Tu still had the air of a big boss, and suddenly shrugged his shoulders very stylishly.

Scarlet Radiance!

Gu Fei’s impression of his first solo experience with a Boss was still very deep. As soon as So Tu shrugged his shoulders, he immediately thought of So Tu’s ultimate move.

Gu Fei didn’t know how powerful this move was, because So Tu had never hit him with it.

But the current Gu Fei was far from the level 30 he had been then. At level 30, Gu Fei’s skill was already on par with So Tu’s, but now he was even faster than this guy. So he reached out and stabbed, striking first. Before So Tu could finish shrugging his shoulders and unleash his ultimate move, Gu Fei had stabbed him again.

Gu Fei’s plan was to interrupt So Tu’s attack, but So Tu’s seemingly mystical ultimate move wasn’t a spell, and the judgment wasn’t weak enough to be interrupted by a single stab. His shoulders shrugged, and a broadsword swung out, a blade-like red light cutting through the ground. Gu Fei twisted his body to dodge, but a scream came from behind him. A player was hit head-on and died on the spot.

In fact, the current level of the players could withstand this Scarlet Radiance, but the problem was that the unlucky guy who was hit by the blade had been fighting for a long time and his health wasn’t full. Moreover, he was at the front, and there were no priests to take care of him for a while. After taking this hit from So Tu, he sacrificed himself heroically.

"Everyone be careful!" Gu Fei continued to attack So Tu while reminding everyone. Scarlet Radiance couldn’t be interrupted, so that was all he could do. He couldn’t just rush up and block the blade himself! Gu Fei estimated that with his weak body, he probably couldn’t withstand the beating of Scarlet Radiance.

The players continued to fight with the bandits while watching this crazy guy fight So Tu alone. In the end, everyone went crazy together.

Gu Fei actually fought So Tu alone, and he didn’t seem to be at a disadvantage.

The most important thing was: Gu Fei could dodge all of So Tu’s attacks.

This skill was too magical and illusory, and all the players were messed up in the wind.
