Everyone from the assaulting side perched up their ears at the sound of battle. A legendary item could drive any player mad.
Quick! Dont let others steal the prize!
Chau Yu saw everything. He ordered, Greenstone, push then go to the twelfth. Yim Ho, push then co back, youre the main dish. Mask, whats taking you so long to kill that noob!
After the third wave had ended, Chau Yu had been busy conversing with the villagers. His efforts finally paid off when a construction worker in the village told him about a quarry not far away from the village. A stockpile of round boulders, reserved for the villages construction work, was stored there.
Seeing the six of them defending the village with all their might, the villagers volunteered to help move the boulders, which were system items that could only be moved about by the defenders. For attackers, the boulders were impassable walls.
Still, Chau Yu didnt feel optimistic; it was only better than having nothing. What triggered him the most was that once the boulder formation was complete, the villagers chickened out at the start of the fourth wave. He wouldnt have sent his precious fighters to push boulders otherwise.
The three groups of attackers all heard the sound of a boulder rolling behind them upon reaching a certain point in the maze.
Dammit, soones controlling the rocks!
We can only move on.
Without a way back, they could only continue forwards. The village, when looked from above, was a complex maze that morphed according to Chau Yus commands.
It took the three groups of players fifteen minutes to find the exit. They were t by an open area past by the boulders.
Eh?
The three groups of players converged at the ten-tre wide area at almost the sa ti.
You guys
Before they could finish, Chau Yu shouted through the squad channel, Now! Push!
Bloodless Bladester, Drako Yau, and Greenstone all pushed their boulders. The ground shuddered. When the grumbling faded, the three groups of attackers found themselves trapped.
What?
Tigeroar quickly went into combat mode as he held onto Divine Martial Sword, which shrouded him in an aura. A boulder rolled aside almost simultaneously. A silhouette slipped in through the opening and leapt into the air.
Who are you!
With his figure overlapping with the sun in the sky, the player had blazing red fists that complented the suns dazzling rays of light.
Die! Yim Ho roared, his voice resounding throughout the chamber of boulders.
teors seed to rain down from above as he pumlled downwards in a swift succession of punchesteor First, the powerful area-of-effect skill he obtained from the Blazing Cave!
teor Fist dealt damage to a large area but had a long cooldown and cost all of Yim Hos mana. Trapped by the boulders, everyone turned pale at the sight of the incoming fists. They imdiately used whatever defensive skill they had to stay alive.
If they had been ordinary players, this alone could have spelt doom for them, but who were they? Players who were the best of the best in the ga.
Hah! Tigeroar hugged Pulchriture and roared.
An invisible soundwave froze in space and turned into a protective barrier, blocking teor after teor. Another player snickered and swung his sword to cut a teor in half. Every player had their way of staying alive, but there always were unlucky ones among a group.
teor Fist lasted for only fifteen minutes, resulting in two casualties. Among the nine elites who assaulted the village from three sides, only six were left. Yim Ho landed on the ground once the skill was over and turned on his heels to flee.
Dont think you can run away! A torntor shouted.
The shadow beneath him travelled through the ground and reached out for Yim Ho. It was the Level 23 Torntor skill, Shadow Tentacles.
The torntors ID was Godmage, though he was far from being a godly mage. Still, he had a powerful encounter quest item up his sleeveCrystal of Swiftness. A piece of off-hand equipnt exclusive to mages, it increased the travelling speed of all magic spells.
The combination of his Crystal of Swiftness and the control effects of the torntor class made him a formidable enemy. Many who faced him in combat didnt even have the ti to react before they were overwheld by spells that travelled at lightning speed.
Godmage had a cold grin as the tentacles struck Yim Ho from behind. Dont you think youre leaving too soon after giving us such a warm welco?
As he taunted Yim Ho, he was already casting another spell with his staff, only to find Yim Ho giving him the middle finger while continuing his charge.
He isnt affected by the systems debuff?
A boulder rolled out of the way to create an opening. Yim Ho sped up to dash through it.
Dont you dare! shouted a weaponmaster who followed closely behind Yim Ho with his extraordinary pace.
The weaponmaster tried to follow Yim Ho past the opening, but once Yim Ho was gone, he found a palm made out of white jade heading right for his face. The seemingly unstoppable blow made him hesitate.
The boulder was back in its place, sealing the square chamber of boulders shut once again. The white jade palm was nowhere to be seen either. However, the fluttering dust and shattered ground suggested that the attack just now wasnt a dream.
The six players were all dumbfounded as they all thought, What just happened?
From the mont they arrived, it took Yim Ho less than half a minute to appear out of nowhere, rain teors down on them, then retreat, not to ntion that teor Fist alone lasted for fifteen seconds.
In the mysterious futuristic room, the pair of male and female were just as awe-struck.
You can use the boulders like that?
In all honesty, the boulders were rely a tool to the defenders in their futile struggle of clearing this impossible quest. It wasnt without its restrictions; certain places couldnt be sealed shut, such as the mysterious girls house. The boulders were already performing their duties if the defenders could separate the attackers into smaller groups, but under Chau Yus boulder formation, they were working out splendidly in the defenders favour.
The boulder formation looked like nothing special at first. Once the attackers entered from the three entrances, it awakened from its slumber and showed its fangs. Greenstone, Drako Yau, Bloodless Bladester, and Yim Ho had each pushed two or three boulders. With such simple moves, the entire boulder formation shifted into sothing entirely different.
What was a maze at first was now four separate rectangular chambers of varying sizes.
