Chapter 204: The Blood Lord Equipnt SetEditor: EndlessFantasy Translation
It was easy to qualify for Blade Peak’s Arena. All a player had to do was to spend 5 Gold Coins and be above level 20.
There were two modes that players could choose during their registration, naly the Open Battle Mode and Level-based Mode.
The Level-based Mode would be released to players who had accumulated more than 2000 points. Hence the only available mode to the players at this early stage was the Open Battle Mode.
The rules to the Open Battle Mode was simple. Once the players were registered, the System would automatically choose two players among the participants whose levels were the closest. Players who were victorious would obtain 100 points while the loser would obtain only 10 points.
Although Blade Peak’s Arena had been out for a few days now, it was still not well known among the players. Li Yi was currently Level 60 and the System could not find a player that was close to his level after searching for more than half a day. The System had finally made the call when Unending Unmatched had registered as a participant.
Unending Unmatched was Level 50. The equipnt he had was equal to Li Yi’s. Hence the System’s decision was fairly reasonable.
Li Yi squinted as he sized up Unending Unmatched before letting out a sigh discreetly.
Yang Xingchen that bastard was willing to invest in him as he had given Unending Unmatched the Blood Lord Equipnt Set.
The Blood Lord Equipnt Set was the first Epic-Level equipnt set for the main tank class. It was equivalent to Li Yi’s Devil Hunter Equipnt Set. It had an extrely low Crit Rate and its stat was incredibly powerful. It was considered as the best equipnt set for the main tank below Level 60.
Two hidden attributes would be activated once a player wore 4 pieces of the Blood Lord equipnt, which amounted to the complete Equipnt Set.
The first special effect was when Double Retaliation was used and if it gave off a Crit ATK, there would be a small chance that Double Retaliation would be cast once more. This special effect had no CD but it could only be stacked a maximum of two tis at once.
The second special effect was that the player would recover 1% of his max HP upon performing two successful blocks in a row.
The Devil Hunter Equipnt Set’s special effects were much better as compared to the Blood Lord’s two hidden special effects. This was the universal truth as not only was this applicable to the Archer’s Equipnt Set, it was the sa for other classes T1 Equipnt Set. As such, only the main tank’s Blood Lord Equipnt Set had the strongest attributes.
In addition to Unending Unmatched’s 4 Blood Lord equipnt, the other equipnt he possessed was unique as well. Li Yi had estimated that his GS had reached at least 1800.
Li Yi’s GS was 2300 and he was currently Level 60. He was stronger than Unending Unmatched in all aspect. Despite all this, he was not confident in winning against Unending Unmatched as the Blood Lord Equipnt Set’s special effects were simply too powerful.
As the battle in the Arena did not account for the equipnt’s enhancent, this ant that Li Yi’s
16 equipnt was no different from its original attribute. The effect of an equipnt was the sa regardless if they were enhanced.
Unending Unmatched starting moving towards him. His attacking style was different than those typical Warrior as he did not use Charge to rush towards him. Instead, he relied on his legs to close the distance between them.
Li Yi setup a Frost Trap under his feet as he activated the Spirit Ape’s Protection. Then, he moved around the Frost Trap as he attacked Unending Unmatched.
"Clank! Clank! Clank!"
Unending Unmatched’s usage of Block was incredibly ridiculous as Li Yi was not able to land any hits on him at all. All of his arrows were fended off by him. In addition to that, his speed was incredibly quick as well as the distance between him and Li Yi had closed in.
"F*ck ! It’s the uber legendary item Fiery Boots which grants
7 movent speed."
Li Yi was shocked as he glanced at Unending Unmatched’s boot.
Li Yi was wearing the Fiery Boots which granted him
5 movent speed but Unending Unmatched had an even better boot than his as he was wearing a
7 movent speed uber legendary Fiery Boots.
As Li Yi leaped backward to disengage, Unending Unmatched activated the Fiery Boot’s special skill, Fire Impact and instantly closed the gapped between him and Li Yi.
"Muscle Rupture!"
"Fire Impact!"
Li Yi activated Fire Impact and ran away before Unending Unmatched’s sword made contact.
He must never fight against a main tank in lee battle unless he had a death wish.
"Charge!"
Unending Unmatched used Charge as he latched onto Li Yi like a shadow.
Archers were naturally at a disadvantage in the arena as there was not a single obstacle in the Arena for them to weave around. It would be very hard to evade the enemy’s attack once the enemy used a Locking Skill. (Note: a Locking Skill is not a Sure Hit Skill)
"Dark Devour!"
The Charge did not worry Li Yi at all, what did keep him on his feet was what would co after which was a Muscle Rupture that would cause his speed to be decreased by 50%, effectively allowing Unending Unmatched to close the gap between them effortlessly.
Li Yi used a special skill to cleanse the stun. At the sa ti, he leaped and used the Chain Arrow Skill in the mid-air.
"Thud! Thud!"
[-467]
[-546]
Unending Unmatched was in a pinch as Li Yi was able to get above him with his leap, making all his Blocks abilities useless. Despite landing two Frost Arrows square on his back, Li Yi’s luck was not in his favor as both arrows did not activate the freezing effect.
Li Yi swayed himself in the middle of the air as he intended to land behind Unending Unmatched. However at that mont, Unending Unmatched imdiately turned around and diverted his shining shield towards him.
"Shield Bash!"
"Bam!"
Li Yi was sent flying eight ters away as if he was a kite that the thread had snapped. Unending Unmatched’s body started glowing gold before Li Yi had even landed onto the ground.
"Hero’s Leap!"
A stream of Gold Light radiated on Unending Unmatched’s body as he leaped forward towards Li Yi who was still falling out of the sky...
The Paladin class had two practical range skills, naly Charge and Holy Shield’s Pursuit. On the other hand, the Warrior class had two practical range skills as well, which was Charge and Hero’s Leap which allowed players to get close towards their target quickly.
Hero’s Leap: [Aims at your target who’s high up in the sky. Damages the targeted unit while decreasing the movent speed of the target and all enemies within 10 yards by 90%. Effect lasts for 5 seconds Cooldown: 10 minutes.]
The ATK range of the Level 1 Hero’s Leap was 30 yards. 1 yard of distance and 1% of damage would increase with each level incrent. As the Hero’s Leap reaches its maximum level of 20, its CD would reduce to 7 minutes as well.
Li Yi was stunned as he was struck by the Shield Bash. This ant that he was unable to evade the Hero’s Leap that followed shortly after.
"Bam!"
Li Yi was struck by Hero’s Leap and the figure -367 appeared on his head. He was no longer stunned but his movent speed had been reduced by 90% which made him no faster than a snail...
"Double Retaliation!"
Unending Unmatched wanted to attack Li Yi once more but a chill started to envelop his entire body and in a mont he had turned into an ice sculpture.
The Freezing Trap was activated!
This was no coincidence, Li Yi had predicted that Unending Unmatched would chase after him and would be too caught up with attacking Li Yi that’d he’d fall prey to the Freezing Trap in due ti.
[-30]
[-56]
[-78]
[-65]
Unending Unmatched’s constant suffering of damage was shown on his head. Li Yi moved towards his back as he charged up his Powered-Up Arrow. He waited until the Freezing Trap was about to end before releasing the bow’s string.
[-956]
Rapid Shooting! Crippling Shot!
Li Yi released one arrow after the other before Unending Unmatched turned around and blocked the arrows with the sword in his hand.
Li Yi kept shooting as he pulled back. Li Yi was extrely cunning when it ca to where he was shooting. Li Yi’s attacks were unpredictable as he would switch out his target as he went along; head, leg, arm, leg, head. This confused Unending Unmatched making it difficult for him to land a Block in continuous succession.
He could not allow Unending Unmatched to block in succession otherwise the Blood Lord’s special effect would be activated, allowing him to recover back the HP that he had lost earlier.
Unending Unmatched had a maximum HP of 4800 whereas Li Yi only had around 2300. He could not compete against him in DEF as well. Ultimately, Li Yi would not be able to last a few hits whereas Unending Unmatched could tank many hits from him.
As Unending Unmatched had finished using Fire Impact, Charge and Hero’s Leap, he had no choice but to chase after Li Yi by just running towards him.
Unending Unmatched would not be able to catch up to Li Yi if the latter were to run and not attack. However, Unending Unmatched would be able to close the distance if Li Yi were to run and attack at the sa ti. This was the current situation between the two.
It took Li Yi a long ti before he turned around and shot an arrow at him. He was being chased by Unending Unmatched around the map. If it were not for his familiarity with the Arena spacing, any newbie would have already been caught in a dead end by Unending Unmatched.
Li Yi had been ntally calculating Charge’s CD. To make things worse, he still had to worry about the two rings’ special skills that were still unused.
Although Unending Unmatched’s Charge was ready to be used again, he was not in a rush to chase after Li Yi. He knew that it would be pointless to use Charge at Li Yi to close the gap.
In the past life, Unending Unmatched was known as the Pursuing War God. He was extrely proficient in using Charge. He attacked Li Yi earlier as he was not familiar with Li Yi’s strength. Now that he had a slight understanding of Li Yi’s strength, he did not dare to use Charge on a whim.
Unending Unmatched was not in a hurry as he chased after Li Yi steadily. All he was waiting for was an opportunity!
As Unending Unmatched noticed Li Yi lowering his head to set up a Freezing Trap, he was fired up as he knew that the opportunity had arrived!
"Charge!"
Setting up the Freezing Trap would require at least 3 seconds. Furthermore, the setup would be interrupted if Li Yi were to be attacked by any ans.
"Maylia’s Punishnt Windstorm!"
Li Yi aid and shot a stream of whirlwind at Unending Unmatched who was charging towards him.
Unending Unmatched was enveloped by the whirlwind and was rooted in place, unable to complete his charge.
"Maylia’s Wind Shield Protection!"
Li Yi activated the Wind Shield Protection as he started shooting arrows as fast as he could at the rooted Unending Unmatched.
Unending Unmatched’s skill was God-tier and it would be very unlikely for him to be defeated head-on. Li Yi would only have a chance of victory if he were to move quickly to the back and attack him from there.
The Punishnt Windstorm would not place the target into a stunned state. Its only effect was to limit the target’s movent and reduce the target’s defense. This ant that Unending Unmatched could still retaliate!
"Clank! Clank! Clank!"
He had successfully blocked the arrows three tis in a row and his HP had been slightly increased.
"Thud! Thud!"
[-345]
[-268]
Li Yi’s quick attacks were not completely futile. Although Unending Unmatched’s Block was ridiculously good, he was still unable to block every arrow successfully.
Li Yi had kept a close range to Unending Unmatched for a simple reason, his arrows would definitely be blocked by his ridiculous skill no matter how many arrows he shot from afar. Hence, he had no choice but to shoot at a closer distance where the arrows were too fast for him to block in ti.
As 12 seconds had passed, Unending Unmatched was down to 200HP. If Li Yi were to land just one more hit, he would definitely be the victor.
Both parties started their pursuit. Unending Unmatched, whose HP was at a critical level fought Li Yi calmly. He did not panic at all even though his HP was critically low.
He was a God-tier player in the past life and Li Yi was nothing more than an Emperor. Although his skills were not as refined as compared to the past life, his ntality during the battle was completely the sa.
He was calm in combat and one opportunity was all he needed as he kept chasing after Li Yi!
Li Yi was forced to a dead end by Unending Unmatched over and over again. He cast his skill again as he tried to move behind him by using Leaping and shooting at the sa ti. However, Unending Unmatched changed his strategy this ti around. He did not intercept him in the middle of the sky. Instead, he ran towards the back as fast as he could.
He was running to where Li Yi was attempting to land!
Unending Unmatched was capable of predicting his movent as well!
"Shield Bash!"
Unending Unmatched’s shield welcod Li Yi who had just landed with a direct hit.
[-128]
"Double Retaliation!"
Unending Unmatched rushed towards Li Yi, placed his shield horizontally and used his Finishing Blow.
[-1131 Critical!]
The Double Retaliation skill was refreshed and Unending Unmatched used the second Double Retaliation without hesitation.
"Double Retaliation!"
