Chapter 163 Muddle Through

The violent currents slowly dissipated, vanishing without a trace. The sky cleared once more, giving one the feeling of emerging from impenetrable mountains and winding streams to discover a village hidden by willows and flowers. All the players of the Niuren Tribe breathed a sigh of relief, they were saved.

If not for Nie Yan's heroic efforts, they would have been swallowed by the endless storm of lightning.

The power of high-level magic was unmatched; basically, no one could escape.

"Damn!" Seeing Nie Yan interrupt Leng Huo's lightning storm, Shi Xue Kuang Dao couldn't help but curse. "Kill him! Absolutely don't let him get away!"

Spells shot towards Nie Yan. These players who had changed jobs wouldn't let Nie Yan leave so easily!

After Nie Yan stunned Leng Huo, the Sword of Zennarde in his hand slit his throat.

-1702.

A critical hit! Nie Yan instantly drained his health, killing him!

Leng Huo was a cloth-armor class, with low defense and not much health. Against Nie Yan's attacks, he was utterly vulnerable. Leng Huo fell to the ground.

At this moment, seven or eight spells shot towards Nie Yan's location. If so many spells hit Nie Yan, they would surely kill him directly.

Just now, Nie Yan had used Gale Step and Shadow Dance in succession. Everyone didn't believe he could pull off a third escape skill!

If Nie Yan didn't have a third escape skill, he would undoubtedly die!

Generally, escape skills were very precious. Most players would be lucky to get one Gale Step. Obtaining a second life-saving skill was good luck, and if they obtained a third, that guy was simply a freak.

But Nie Yan was precisely such a freak. Although he didn't have a third life-saving skill, he had a skill, Cooldown Reset! This Cooldown Reset skill could instantly reset the cooldown time of one of Nie Yan's skills.

Besides Cooldown Reset, the spell immunity of the Arbiter of Light could also be used.

In terms of skills, Nie Yan was a rich man!

Nie Yan reset the cooldown time of the Shadow Dance skill.

Seeing that in the next moment, all the spells were about to hit Nie Yan, everyone's hearts were in their throats. Nie Yan's invincible body was about to be shattered at this moment. Shi Xue Kuang Dao watched coldly, to see how he would continue to act arrogant!

Shadow Dance!

Bang, bang, bang! Spells bombarded Nie Yan's body, a burst of explosions.

When the dazzling magical light faded, Nie Yan didn't die as everyone had imagined, but disappeared from the spot.

Everyone was stunned for a moment.

"Damn, this guy has a third escape skill!" Shi Xue Kuang Dao cursed. Nie Yan's skills were truly endless! With this, his idea of killing Nie Yan had once again become a pipe dream.

With three escape skills and Nie Yan's superb awareness, killing Nie Yan was basically impossible unless, like last time, he used thousands of people to surround him!

Seeing Nie Yan kill Leng Huo and escape safely, the morale of the Niuren Tribe players soared.

"Brothers, the boss showed off a move, we can't lose the Niuren Tribe's face, damn it, we'll pile them to death!" Qi Shi De Wan Ge said in the guild's regional group chat, pointing in one direction, "All mages, target Shi Xue Kuang Dao, blow him away!"

Nearly eighty mages focused their targets on Shi Xue Kuang Dao, and dense spells screamed straight over.

Looking at the incoming spells, Shi Xue Kuang Dao's expression changed drastically. He quickly activated a skill on his body, Celestial Descent. His skin took on a bluish-grey color, and his health soared to 3600, especially his magic resistance, which increased dramatically. He also cast a shield on himself, a thick black barrier enveloping him.

This Celestial Descent was a high-level skill. As the leader of Zhan Dao Shi Xue, he still had some good things hidden up his sleeve.

Bang, bang, bang! Spells exploded on Shi Xue Kuang Dao's body, and damage numbers in the teens popped up from his body. The constantly exploding fireballs still made him retreat continuously. Then, with a bang, the black shield shattered into pieces, and the mages' damage immediately soared to seventy or eighty.

Healing spells landed on Shi Xue Kuang Dao's body, and a priest quickly cast a shield on Shi Xue Kuang Dao.

"Boss, hurry up and leave, there's no time! San Dao and them have found several top players from the Niuren Tribe! News came from below that about five thousand people from the Niuren Tribe are surrounding us!" Ao Shu Fa Shi Xing Shuo said. Now, in his heart, he no longer had the idea of killing Nie Yan. Even if he had more control skills, it would be futile to encounter Nie Yan, who had three escape skills.

More than five hundred players left half to guard the gunpowder, and the other half pressed up.

There were only a dozen of them here. Even if their individual strength was strong, they were no match for four hands. More than two hundred people pressed over, and the mighty array was very stressful. If they didn't use group attack magic to bombard, they were simply no match in a head-on confrontation.

When they first appeared just now, they took advantage of the fact that the Niuren Tribe players hadn't reacted yet, and it was still possible to successfully cast high-level magic. Now that the Niuren Tribe players had all reacted, more than two hundred people were pressing close, and they no longer had the opportunity to cast group attack magic. After all, so many holy knights were staring at them.

The exploding fireballs made it almost impossible for Shi Xue Kuang Dao to open his eyes. It was already very difficult to endure in such dense magic.

One after another figures appeared at the edge of the jungle. Sun, Shui Se Yan Tou, and Cui Can Dao Guang had all arrived, and as soon as they appeared, they rushed to various battlefields.

Nie Yan looked around the battlefield and snuck towards Shi Xue Kuang Dao in the distance. Today, he must leave him here!

"Everyone, retreat!" Shi Xue Kuang Dao roared. Before he could finish shouting, a sharp dagger pierced the back of his head.

Nie Yan had been lurking in the corner, waiting for his skills to cool down, and then looking for an opportunity to deal with Shi Xue Kuang Dao. Seeing Shi Xue Kuang Dao retreating and being bombarded by magic to the point where he could barely open his eyes, he moved, circled behind Shi Xue Kuang Dao, activated Annihilation Disaster, and gave Shi Xue Kuang Dao a stun.

A system notification sounded. Nie Yan glanced at it. The stun skill had leveled up!

After so long, the stun skill had finally leveled up.

The stun skill was one of the few skills that could be leveled up. Most players didn't like to use this skill and rarely knew what would happen after the skill leveled up. The skill proficiency of the stun skill could only be obtained under the special conditions judged by the main brain, and few people knew the trick. It wasn't until there were countless players over level 100 in his previous life that the stun skill became widely circulated, and at that time, there would often be a large group of people looking everywhere to practice the skill proficiency of the stun.

Intermediate Stun: Unexpectedly stuns the opponent from behind, lasting 7 seconds, deeply stunned for 2 seconds, will wake up after being attacked after 2 seconds, skill cooldown time 60 seconds.

The effect of the intermediate stun was okay. If it continued to level up, up to advanced or expert level, the skill effect would be even stronger.

Shi Xue Kuang Dao was bombarded by magic to the point where he couldn't even open his eyes, and his perception ability had dropped to the extreme. Naturally, he didn't perceive Nie Yan's approach, and when he was hit by Nie Yan, it was already too late.

It had to be said that Nie Yan was very ruthless. If it was just an ordinary stun, Shi Xue Kuang Dao would definitely be able to withstand it, but Nie Yan had added Annihilation Disaster. Under Annihilation Disaster, the curse fell upon him, and Shi Xue Kuang Dao's attributes suddenly dropped by a large margin. With a bang, the shield on Shi Xue Kuang Dao shattered into pieces. After being hit by the magic, damage numbers of three or four hundred floated above his head.

At this moment, no amount of health could withstand it, even with Celestial Descent.

Although the high magic resistance of Celestial Descent offset part of the curse effect, the curse effect of Annihilation Disaster was too strong, reducing his defense by more than half.

Several priests and shamans saw that Shi Xue Kuang Dao was in danger. They raised their staffs one after another, wanting to heal Shi Xue Kuang Dao, but it was already too late.

Dense magic directly blasted Shi Xue Kuang Dao away. Dozens of spells hit him at the same time, and the attack damage of each spell was probably three or four hundred points, which was basically no different from a one-hit kill.

Seeing Shi Xue Kuang Dao being blasted away, Nie Yan revealed a satisfied expression and once again entered stealth, pouncing towards the remaining people.

"Quickly use a random teleport scroll!" Ao Shu Fa Shi Xing Shuo shouted. Before he could finish shouting, he felt a chill approaching from behind.

It was Nie Yan, he had struck again!

While Ao Shu Fa Shi Xing Shuo was taking out a random teleport scroll from his backpack, he retreated to the side.

Too slow!

Just then, Nie Yan used a skill, Greater Concussion!

Nie Yan was like a hunting leopard, suddenly erupting and pouncing towards his prey.

Ao Shu Fa Shi Xing Shuo's body paused. Just as he was about to crush the random teleport scroll, Nie Yan stunned him, hitting his forehead.

"So fast." Ao Shu Fa Shi Xing Shuo flashed his last thought. Nie Yan was so fast that he simply didn't have time to react. If he had one or two seconds, he could have cast the random teleport scroll.

The idea of ​​competing with Nie Yan before was simply a joke. Regardless of job restrictions, thieves had many skills targeting magic classes. Just in terms of skill and awareness, he was no match for Nie Yan.

Nie Yan used a backstab and a cleave, knocking Ao Shu Fa Shi Xing Shuo to the ground.

The people from Zhan Dao Shi Xue, Fa Shi Lian Meng, and Shen Sheng Shou Hu all used random teleport scrolls and disappeared from the spot.

They were well prepared before they came. Everyone had prepared random teleport scrolls. Random teleport scrolls, such rare items, were generally not used indiscriminately. The entire Niuren Tribe could probably only get a few hundred.

In this battle, the Niuren Tribe suffered heavy losses when they encountered a strong enemy. After a rough calculation, they killed more than twenty elite-level players from Zhan Dao Shi Xue, Shen Sheng Shou Hu, and Fa Shi Lian Meng, and collected more than a dozen pieces of good equipment, which was not too much of a loss.
