“There's a mutated Lord coming, be careful,” Nie Yan urgently said in the team chat.

“Nie Yan, how strong are the mutated Lords?” Tang Yao asked. He had never encountered monsters of the mutated Lord level and knew nothing about their strength.

“Don’t get hit by them, mutated Lords deal a lot of damage,” Nie Yan said. Tang Yao and Xie Yao were both cloth-armor-wearing mage classes. Although their defense was high, they couldn't withstand a single blow from a mutated Lord.

Nie Yan should be able to withstand a few attacks from a mutated Lord. His armor type was leather, and his defense and defense level were very high, but he couldn't tank hits from a mutated Lord like a warrior could.

Hearing Nie Yan’s words, Tang Yao and Xie Yao both paid attention.

The two mutated Skeleton Kings were getting closer and closer. They emitted a foul stench that made people dizzy.

Nie Yan looked down at his status. He had an extra status effect on him.

Plague Disease: Attributes reduced by 30%, movement speed reduced by 20%.

Fearful Tremors: Attack speed reduced by 30%.

This was a special effect of the mutated Skeleton Kings.

Just a few seconds after Nie Yan and the others were afflicted with the Plague Disease effect, the Guardian Angel Karuna on his shoulder waved her staff, and beams of white light fell on them. All negative magic was swept away, and they gained six buff statuses, including acceleration, protection, and more, greatly increasing their attributes.

“Damn, where did you get your angel? It’s so awesome,” Tang Yao said in amazement as he looked down at his status. The value of the Guardian Angel Karuna was definitely no less than his Arcane Sprite.

The Arcane Sprite and the Guardian Angel Karuna each had their own strengths. The Arcane Sprite was good at increasing players’ attributes and providing mana, while the Guardian Angel Karuna was good at dispelling various debuffs and buffing players.

“I got it when I advanced to Shadow Dancer,” Nie Yan said, looking into the distance as the large group of Lords got closer.

The two mutated Skeleton Kings waved the giant axes in their hands and pounced fiercely.

“I’ll deal with one of them,” Xie Yao said, looking at her skill bar.

“Are you sure?” Nie Yan looked at Xie Yao. Although Xie Yao had obtained many Legendary equipment, she had never demonstrated her strength in front of him.

“Yes,” Xie Yao nodded seriously.

Nie Yan always felt that Xie Yao needed protection. He rarely let Xie Yao fight when he was around. He now realized that he really lacked understanding of Xie Yao’s strength. Xie Yao's successful promotion to Saint Archmage and obtaining so many pieces of Legendary equipment was enough to explain everything.

“I’ll take care of the other mutated Skeleton King,” Nie Yan said. It was very easy for him to deal with a mutated Skeleton King.

“What am I supposed to do if you two divide them up?” Tang Yao joked.

“There are still more than a hundred Lords and Elites, they’re all yours,” Nie Yan said with a smile.

Tang Yao rolled his eyes. “You guys are ruthless, making me deal with so many Lords and Elites by myself.”

Nie Yan and Xie Yao looked at each other and smiled.

Nie Yan said, “I’ll let the Golden Earth Dragon and thirty Holy Knights cooperate with you.”

“That’s more like it,” Tang Yao breathed a sigh of relief.

Seeing the mutated Skeleton King getting closer and closer, Xie Yao ran to the side. She waved her staff, and a Holy Light Judgment smashed into the mutated Skeleton King.

Xie Yao was the first player to attack the mutated Skeleton King, and the mutated Skeleton King's aggro was immediately drawn to Xie Yao. It waved the giant axe in its hand and pounced towards Xie Yao.

Xie Yao ran away, luring the mutated Skeleton King away. Seeing Xie Yao coming over, the skeletons in the distance immediately surrounded Xie Yao.

Just as she was about to be surrounded by ordinary skeletons, Xie Yao cast a Brilliant Holy Light on herself. Her body emitted a dazzling silver-white light, enveloping a fifty-yard radius in a white glow. When this white light shone on the skeletons nearby, their bones emitted a sizzling white smoke and slowly melted in the white light.

These white lights were not fatal, but the skeletons were very afraid of these white lights and retreated, fearing to avoid them.

Wherever Xie Yao went, the skeletons retreated one after another, leaving a large area empty, so she didn't have to worry about ordinary skeletons and could concentrate on dealing with the mutated Skeleton King.

Xie Yao led the mutated Skeleton King to an open space, frequently waving her staff, and a series of instant-cast magic bombarded the mutated Skeleton King.

Damage values floated above the mutated Skeleton King's head. It roared angrily and quickly approached Xie Yao, swinging the giant axe in its hand and slashing down at Xie Yao.

Flash!

Xie Yao's body disappeared and reappeared behind the mutated Skeleton King, continuing to cast a series of magic spells.

With a bang, the mutated Skeleton King attacked the ground, missing its target. Looking at the empty ground, it looked around in confusion. Feeling an attack on its back, it turned its head and realized that Xie Yao was already behind it.

The mutated Skeleton King immediately turned around, waving the giant axe and pouncing towards Xie Yao again.

Xie Yao waved her staff and cast an acceleration buff on herself. Suddenly, her feet were like the wind, and she ran quickly, calmly casting a series of magic spells.

Xie Yao gracefully dodged, leading the mutated Skeleton King in circles, but the mutated Skeleton King never touched her.

Nie Yan used the Headless Horseman Doro's Riding Crossbow to lure the mutated Skeleton King to one side, and glanced at Xie Yao. He definitely didn't need to worry about Xie Yao. Watching Xie Yao's skilled movements, Nie Yan remembered the scenes he had encountered with Archmages several times in his previous life. Archmages were very skilled at kiting.

If she wasn't disturbed by the outside world, Xie Yao could probably easily kill that mutated Skeleton King.

Nie Yan used the Headless Horseman Doro's Riding Crossbow to lead the mutated Skeleton King on his side to the nearby jungle. After activating the deterrent effect, the surrounding skeletons also retreated, clearing a space for Nie Yan and the mutated Skeleton King. He drew the Zennarde's Sword and pounced on the mutated Skeleton King.

Seeing Nie Yan rushing up, the mutated Skeleton King let out a sharp roar and slashed down with its giant axe.

Nie Yan's figure flashed, dodging the mutated Skeleton King's attack, and went to the side. Suddenly, he jumped up, and the Zennarde's Sword in his hand slashed down from the mutated Skeleton King's chest.

The mutated Skeleton King staggered a few steps and pounced again.

Nie Yan used the skills of Shadow Dance, and his figure kept flashing around. No matter how the mutated Skeleton King swung its giant axe, it could never attack Nie Yan. All its attacks were in vain.

Killing the mutated Skeleton King in a one-on-one situation didn't seem to be difficult, it was just a matter of time. The mutated Skeleton King had too much health.

Those ordinary Skeleton Lords didn't dare to approach Xie Yao and Nie Yan because of the Brilliant Holy Light and deterrence, so they gathered in the direction where Tang Yao was.

The Golden Earth Dragon let out a low dragon roar and rushed up. With a bang, it collided with one of the Skeleton Lords. Immediately, five or six Skeleton Lords surrounded it, trapping the Golden Earth Dragon in a stalemate. A group of Holy Knights formed a human wall, blocking in front of Tang Yao, providing protection for Tang Yao, while constantly using healing magic to heal the Golden Earth Dragon's fluctuating health.

After leaving a series of fire walls on the ground, Tang Yao waved his staff and began to chant a spell. A wave of dark magic elements formed a strong vortex around Tang Yao, like a tornado, surrounding him in the center.

A set of syllables, two sets of syllables, three sets of syllables…

Nie Yan looked at Tang Yao. From the raging magic elements, he could feel that Tang Yao had begun to release a forbidden spell! But he couldn't judge what forbidden spell Tang Yao was releasing.

Time passed by minute by minute. The Holy Knights were under fierce attacks. Fortunately, they could heal each other, and they withstood the fierce attack like a tide. They waved the greatswords in their hands. Thirty Holy Knights together held up a huge Holy Light Shield, protecting them inside. The Skeleton Lords kept attacking the Holy Light Shield, but the Holy Light Shield remained motionless.

A full ten sets of syllables, Tang Yao's magic was finally cast.

Dim Saint's Edict!

A wave somewhat similar to the Wave of Death slowly spread out. The Skeleton Lords who came into contact with this dark force were like they had suddenly been subjected to a body immobilization spell. They were all frozen in place. Dim Saint's Edict continued to spread out more than five hundred yards before stopping.

All the skeletons in this range were all frozen in place.

What a powerful forbidden spell!

Nie Yan glanced at the mutated Skeleton King, who was frozen in front of him. He had also been controlled by Dim Saint's Edict just now, but after a while, the control effect on him was lifted by Tang Yao.

Tang Yao could freely lift the Dim Saint's Edict effect on the players.

All the skeletons were forbidden from moving. This was an excellent opportunity!

Tang Yao waved his staff, and patches of flames in the sky smashed down on the skeletons below.

The bottom immediately turned into a sea of ​​fire, and damage values ​​floated above these skeletons.

Tang Yao's magic damage was terrifying once it was fully unleashed.

“Yaozi, how long does the effect of your forbidden spell last?” Nie Yan asked. He rushed to the side of the mutated Skeleton King and used a series of skills on the mutated Skeleton King's back.

“I don’t know either, this is the first time I’ve used this skill. The control time for ordinary skeletons is estimated to be about seventy seconds. As for Lords and mutated Lords, I can’t guarantee it. Be careful,” Tang Yao said while outputting fiercely. His magic overturned more than thirty Skeleton Elites and five or six Skeleton Lords. In addition, a large number of Skeleton Lords were only left with half their health.

A full seventy seconds of control time for ordinary skeletons, Nie Yan was secretly shocked. This Dim Saint's Edict skill was indeed a bit terrifying. If Tang Yao released such a forbidden spell in a melee, it would definitely be a disaster for the enemy. The only drawback was that, like all other forbidden spells, Dim Saint's Edict required a long chanting time, requiring ten sets of syllables for a full one hundred seconds. In battle, it generally required players with very good awareness to avoid the enemy's attention and free up one hundred seconds to release such a forbidden spell.
