Chapter 1 神牧

A holy knight was a scarce resource. In past wars, holy knights had shone brilliantly. A powerful divine blessing could greatly increase the strength of a force of thousands.

In addition to powerful healing abilities and a sharp mind, one must also have exceptional PK skills to become a holy knight.

Leading Big Brother Seven, Shi Li Hua Sha, and Black Heaven were all like this.

Leading Big Brother Seven glanced at his skill bar to see which skills he could use.

Leading Big Brother Seven’s calm and composed demeanor made Kuang Shen a little uneasy. Could a priest really defeat him? He wouldn't have believed it normally, but the confidence of Shui Se Yan Tou and the others made him doubt himself.

"Let's begin." After preparing, Leading Big Brother Seven walked to one end of the arena and said.

He couldn't lose this time, or he wouldn't have the face to return to the Angel Corps headquarters. He would become the laughingstock of the players.

Charge!

Kuang Shen shouted and charged towards Leading Big Brother Seven.

Leading Big Brother Seven ran, inflicting Kuang Shen with a Pain, then unleashing a Holy Sanction.

The players below held their breath, watching the battle, afraid to miss anything. Seeing the burly Kuang Shen constantly pouncing on Leading Big Brother Seven, they all sweated for Leading Big Brother Seven.

Nie Yan and the others seemed much more relaxed.

"Nirvana, what kind of flying mount did you get?" Yu Wang Ran Zhi Qing Chun asked in the regional group chat. The most talked-about topic among the players of the Mad Rogue Guild recently was Nie Yan's flying mount.

"It's not a flying mount yet, just a dragon egg. I have to hatch it first," Nie Yan said. He didn't know when the Darkwing Dragon egg would hatch, and after it hatched, he would have to level it up. It was a real headache.

"Dragon egg..." Everyone was surprised. Dragons were extremely rare, and dragon creatures were synonymous with power. Even the lowest-level dragons had amazing strength.

Nie Yan always managed to get rare and good things. He even managed to get a dragon egg.

"What dragon egg? Let us see it," Yu Wang Ran Zhi Qing Chun said, curious.

"Let's go back to the guild headquarters. There are too many people here." Cui Can Dao Guang said. Such things should be kept secret.

"Have you guys gotten anything good recently?" Nie Yan asked. The members of his team shouldn't have been idle.

"Yu Wang got a sub-legendary staff a few days ago, with decent stats. We also got a Magic Fire Cannon blueprint in a dungeon and gave it to Wang Feng De Wo Niu. Jiang Nan got a kodo beast. He's happy, and he can level up a lot faster with it." Cui Can Dao Guang said, adding that their gains had been pretty good recently.

"The trigger clues Nirvana gave us are very useful, letting us know where to collect sub-legendary and legendary equipment and items. I was lucky and got a sub-legendary staff. Everyone else is still collecting. I heard that Huai Dan just triggered a legendary set search quest and is still working on it," Yu Wang Ran Zhi Qing Chun said. The clues that Nie Yan had provided were indeed very helpful. The power of those clues would slowly become apparent in the future.

"Good results," Nie Yan said. He hadn't expected the clues he provided to have an effect so quickly. The more sub-legendary and legendary equipment they had, the more it would help them reach the top tier.

They chatted for a while. Besides these things, there were countless other gains. Nie Yan could clearly feel that the Mad Rogue Guild was rapidly growing stronger. In the near future, they would reach their peak state from the previous life, and some might even have new breakthroughs. They would be the masters of the future battlefield.

As they were talking, the battle in the arena had entered a critical phase. Everyone turned their attention to the arena.

Berserk! Charge!

Kuang Shen had been fighting for a long time without success. Leading Big Brother Seven had six crowd control skills, far more than ordinary players. After using three crowd control skills in a row, Kuang Shen was caught off guard, and Leading Big Brother Seven whittled his health down to about half. Finally, he activated Berserk and charged towards Leading Big Brother Seven.

Flame Slash!

Kuang Shen swung his greatsword and slashed at Leading Big Brother Seven.

The Flame Slash howled as it approached, and just as it was about to hit, Leading Big Brother Seven suddenly waved his staff and Blinked, jumping out of Kuang Shen's attack range.

Kuang Shen missed and was stunned for a moment before immediately realizing it was the Blink skill!

The Blink skill was an extremely rare skill. Perhaps only one in tens of thousands of players had Blink.

Leading Big Brother Seven blinked behind Kuang Shen and cast a Fear Howl behind him.

Kuang Shen sensed that Leading Big Brother Seven was behind him and was about to turn around when a sharp howl pierced his eardrums.

Not good, it's Fear Howl!

Kuang Shen was about to activate his mental defense to resist Leading Big Brother Seven's Fear Howl, but it was too late. No matter how fast a person's reaction speed was, how could it be faster than sound?!

Under normal circumstances, casting Fear Howl had a precursor. During PK, players would know that a priest was about to cast Fear Howl when they saw the priest's throat tremble violently. At this time, casting skills like Mental Defense and Mental Immunity could resist the priest's Fear Howl.

Unlike ordinary priests, Leading Big Brother Seven first used Blink to avoid Kuang Shen's line of sight, and then cast Fear Howl. By the time Kuang Shen heard the sound of Fear Howl, it was already too late.

Shui Se Yan Tou smiled slightly when he saw this from below. This was the move! When they went to dungeons, they often practiced PK skills together. He had been defeated by Leading Big Brother Seven's move several times. This move was unavoidable. Even if you knew it in advance, you would still often fall for it, because Leading Big Brother Seven had become so skilled that he could cast Blink and Fear Howl without any interval. Ordinary players would definitely be in trouble when they encountered such a killing move for the first time.

Unless his immunity skills were as numerous as Nirvana's.

Kuang Shen was affected by the Fear Howl and ran uncontrollably.

Pain Whip!

Leading Big Brother Seven calmly cast a Pain Whip skill on Kuang Shen. Damage numbers popped up above Kuang Shen's head: -111, -123...

This was the continuous damage effect of Pain Whip. Leading Big Brother Seven's Pain Whip was level five, so the effect was very strong, and the duration was extremely long.

Taking advantage of this, Leading Big Brother Seven cast skill after skill. Holy Burst!

A ball of light drew an arc in the air and landed on Kuang Shen's body. With a bang, the ball of light exploded. The powerful explosive force caused Kuang Shen's body to involuntarily retreat.

The effect of Fear Howl ended, and Leading Big Brother Seven felt a little regret. He had a total of six crowd control skills, including two strong crowd control skills, Fear Howl and Holy Light Shackles, one medium crowd control skill, Radiance Blast, and three low crowd control skills, Repulsion Aura, Scare, and Banish. Holy Light Shackles and Radiance Blast had been used and were still on cooldown. After using these two skills, he no longer had any continuous crowd control skills.

It was already not easy for him to control Kuang Shen until now.

Kuang Shen woke up from the crowd control. His health was only a sliver left, about eight hundred, and whip damage was still constantly appearing on his body.

Leading Big Brother Seven used crowd control skills to continuously control Kuang Shen before he could even get close, whittling down Kuang Shen's health to only a sliver. The players were dumbfounded. Damn, this was a priest! Even more awesome than a mage!

The only difference between Leading Big Brother Seven and a mage was that his attack damage was much lower than a mage's. If an ordinary mage had subdued Kuang Shen for five or six seconds, Kuang Shen would have fallen to the ground after a few spells. Leading Big Brother Seven had subdued Kuang Shen for a full ten seconds, but his attack damage still failed to kill Kuang Shen. However, the effect was still not bad. Kuang Shen was almost exhausted.

Kuang Shen roared and activated the War God's Guardian skill, ignoring all crowd control effects. A faint golden light appeared on his body.

"Die!" Kuang Shen crushed towards Leading Big Brother Seven, swinging the greatsword in his hand at Leading Big Brother Seven.

Leading Big Brother Seven retreated quickly. Scare and Banish skills were off cooldown, but he understood that any crowd control skills he cast at this time would be ineffective. He could only face Kuang Shen's attack head-on.

Once Kuang Shen cast a Hamstring skill on him, he would be finished if he was controlled for two seconds!

This was the difference between a warrior and a priest!

A warrior's attack could easily break through a priest's cloth armor. Even if a priest had tens of thousands of health, they still couldn't withstand a warrior's attack.

Leading Big Brother Seven cast Holy Light Shield on himself. A white light screen protected him. Level six Holy Light Shield!

A level five or higher Holy Light Shield had one effect, which was to protect against limb damage control skills like Hamstring. It was weaker against mental attacks.

Kuang Shen slashed, and a damage number of -1582 floated above Leading Big Brother Seven's head.

-1158, -1283...

Leading Big Brother Seven retreated while casting Healing spells on himself, repeatedly healing his health back up, and then repeatedly getting hit, managing to withstand for five seconds. Without being controlled, Leading Big Brother Seven could still withstand for a long time if he could cast Healing spells on himself.

The players below were shocked. What strong healing! How much effect would such dense healing have when tanking a Boss! No wonder Leading Big Brother Seven could become the Mad Rogue Guild's number one priest!

After only five seconds, the War God's Guardian on Kuang Shen expired.

Just as Kuang Shen wanted to attack again, Leading Big Brother Seven used Scare, causing Kuang Shen to retreat a few steps, and threw a Holy Light Judgment at him.

Kuang Shen's health had been worn down a lot by Pain Whip, and after taking a Holy Light Judgment, he flew out and fell to the ground.

This was the third time he had been brutally ravaged!
