Chapter 179: The Unique Aquamancer
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
After the battle ended, Slayer’s Heart remained highly focus and strategically moved closer to the Darkshadow Archdemon. Pazuzu’s Hamr’s attack was getting fiercer, which greatly restricted the Darkshadow Archdemon’s mobility. Even though the Boss would occasionally retaliate and hurt him, he would always be restored to his best condition since Violet Orchid and Violetmoon Devilite were there to simultaneously buff him with Purification and Heal whenever he was damaged.
The Darkshadow Archdemon HP quickly dropped below 20000!
This is when Slayer’s Heart began to feel the fatigue after micro-managing the fight for such a prolonged period. Although this battle style would give one absolute precision and complete control over movent, it was equally exhausting...
“Do it!”
With a great roar, Slayer’s Heart suddenly quickened the release of one final combo. The combo blasted off abruptly from his hand and vigorously removed above thousand HP from the Darkshadow Archdemon, forcing the monster to be mildly stunned...
Done with their respective battles, Qin Ruo, Burning Rose, and Little Apple imdiately returned to the Darkshadow Archdemon’s battlefield.
Fire Dragon’s Roar!
Skythunder Sword!
Qin Ruo fiercest attack—Triple Darkfrost Sting! His skill alone trimd away more than 700 HP from the Darkshadow Archdemon whose defense had been slightly weakened...
Although the power of such explosive effort is not as mighty as Slayer’s Heart’s, it still made the surrounding few curse silently.
‘What a freak!’
However, Qin Ruo himself was not entirely satisfied with it. Every ti he conjured triple Darkfrost Sting, he could not help but ponder when he would successfully conjure three snow eagles...
If that were the case, a single attack would be enhanced by at least 12 to 13 more Magic Attacks, which was equivalent to 60 to 65 damage points. Perhaps only when he could truly comprehend and master such advanced elentalism would he be able to be on par with powerful players such as Slayer’s Heart and Dark Annihilator by using a Tier 4 defensive skill simultaneously.
Even though the current multiple Darkfrost Sting attack was deadly, it was a straight projectile. Moreover, its bulky nature made it unfavorable for launching his limit break... If he was not able to finish off the opponent with a single strike, then the following battle would beco very troubleso, unless he was willing to burn cash and splurge on Magic Scrolls.
Being inflicted with more than 700 damage points, the Darkshadow Archdemon’s attention imdiately turned toward Qin Ruo. Qin Ruo did not panic but retreated silently to continue conjuring. Even though Slayer’s Heart was not completely focused as before, he still managed to limit the Darkshadow Archdemon’s movent. Furthermore, Little Apple had also returned to her position, while attacks from iLittle Arrow and Dinosaurcerer never ceased.
Gold Digger Babe and Brother Da remained the only two who did not join the battle. Both of them obtained a single Honor Point after countering the ambush by the fifteen-n party of the Demon Faction.
Although it was only a single point, there was enough reason for them to be extrely thrilled!
This was their first Honor Point gained from the Mythical Battlefield... Besides, four Gold Equipnt dropped from the fifteen fallen enemies, while the remaining equipnt were Violet tier with decent attributes, which were all looted by the duo that did not participate.
However, due to their initial carelessness, they had allowed the enemies to march close without being noticed. This caused the both of them to feel deeply embarrassed. Thus, after getting back into their respective positions, they did not bother to check the equipnt’s attributes and hurriedly had their guard up!
anwhile, the Darkshadow Archdemon was really unlucky!
It was so unfortunate that it bumped into Qin Ruo’s party as there were several surprising otherworldly mbers in the party. The first was Field Commander Slayer’s Heart who demonstrated his graceful battle style for the first ti in front of Qin Ruo had singlehandedly depleted more than 50% of the Darkshadow Archdemon’s HP. He also had the upper hand when he went up against the monster solo while the others were dealing with the ambush attack.
Next was Qin Ruo, an Aquamancer with multilayer Tier 4 magic. Among all the Aquamancers on this Mythical Battlefield, he might have just dealt the highest damage to the Darkshadow Archdemon with a single strike. He was definitely an anomaly who could multiply a destructive Tier 4 single-target Spell!
The last was Violet Orchid who complented Slayer’s Heart to suppress the Darkshadow Archdemon from all other aspects...
Although she did not shine as bright as Slayer’s Heart and Qin Ruo, her tily and accurately placed Purification was always spectacular. It was rightful to say that without her support, Slayer’s Heart’s fight would not be as easy as it seed.
The combined efforts among the three of them, coupled with the attacks by others was the exact reason why the elimination of the Darkshadow Archdemon destruction was swift...
After a futile rampage for more than one minute, the Darkshadow Archdemon belched a dense wisp of eerier dark smoke that was followed by a forlorn shriek before disappearing into thin air. The body fell heavily to the ground, along with a land of gold coins and equipnt.
Qin Ruo quickly scanned through the dropped pile then looked up with a disappointed expression.
Sadly, there’s no Pet Egg.
As Slayer’s Heart and Little Apple were gathering the loot dropped from the defeated Darkshadow Archdemon, Qin Ruo took the chance to deactivate the Aquabarrier covering his body. He then casually sat down to recover his depleted MP.
Just as he sat, he suddenly felt that he had beco the center of attention... All of them aside from Gold Digger Babe and Brother Da were looking at him like they were admiring a new animal species found in the zoo.
Qin Ruo felt uneasy being looked so closely. He took a look around himself and could not help but to ask Violet Orchid, who stood closest to him.
“Sister Violet, did a flower grow on my face?”
He did not expect Violet Orchid’s response to be a solemn nod. This caused Qin Ruo to sit there with an open mouth, not knowing what to say next.
As he felt lost, Violet Orchid voiced out the question that had been kept in her heart for a long ti, “The elite team from Specter Clan are quite well-known among the Demon Faction. The Bandits just now are even infamous killers on this Mythical Battlefield... Now tell honestly, how did you find them?”
“Oh, you are talking about that.”
Qin Ruo finally recalled that he never got the chance after he completed the Tier 4 Advancent Quest to tell them about the small area Elental Perception and the Elental Perception: Water skill that he mastered back at the Snow Domain.
When he saw everyone was pricking their ears, he shrugged and said, “It’s Aquamorph’s subskill called Elental Perception, my second pair of eyes. It reveals invisible units within a fifty-ter radius, which could go up to a hundred ters in areas rich with the water elent.”
Right after he finished his sentence, deep inhaling could be clearly heard in the surroundings.
Burning Rose suddenly cut in and stared at Qin Ruo with her beautiful pair of eyes. She gritted her teeth and spoke while glaring, “You are so outrageous. You even learned Elental Perception in such a short amount of ti. This is an advanced hidden skill. Right now, the number of players who possess this skill has not even reached a hundred.”
“Eh? That many already?”
Qin Ruo was stunned for a while.
He then received another furious glare from Burning Rose. “You consider a hundred many? Do you know how many Elentalists there are in this ga? How many Aquamancers that know Elental Perception? What about the number of players who actually learned Aquamorph? So stop grumbling. How could you still not be satisfied when you have all the good stuff?! Hmph!”
She was indignant as if soone had provoked her.
It was understandable why she acted as such though. It was obvious that she was way stronger than Qin Ruo in the beginning. That was why she kept claiming to be Qin Ruo’s elder sister all this while. However, she did not foresee for Qin Ruo’s growth to be exponential. From obtaining Gold Equipnt of the highest quality, casting Twelve Frostrampart Formation, winning the duel against Crackpot, obtaining Aquamorph, selecting his Tier 4 Advancent Quest of “seven difficulties”, excellent Elentalism, to the current Elental Perception...
Qin Ruo’s strength seed to be growing significantly each ti. Burning Rose felt that Qin Ruo was slowly leaving her behind.
Initially, she hoped to bridge the gap in strength between them with her acquired experiences and better understanding of the Elentalist class. However, the ergence of Qin Ruo’s Elental Perception once again widened the disparity between them.
Elental Perception!
This is what separated a master Elentalist from a common one. It represented a giant barrier or trench that could hardly be crossed over!
Normally, a common player would need to be lucky enough to trigger the hidden quest. Even so, the hope of acquiring this technique was still rather slim as the player would first need to overco a lot of difficulties. Qin Ruo’s case was an exception.
He “accidentally” acquired the Tier 2 support skill Aquamorph with great practicality from a highly difficult quest when he was still a Tier 3 player. This skill automatically gave rise to Elental Perception, which was an ability envied and raved about by most Elentalist.
One could only say that this brat was extrely lucky!
While all others were awestruck by Qin Ruo’s stroke of luck, Violet Orchid and Slayer’s Heart gave each other a aningful glance and once again remained silence...
Before this, the five of them were looking for an opportunity to naturally recruit Qin Ruo into their team to form a strong party together. So, Qin Ruo being such powerful should be good news to them.
Nevertheless, Qin Ruo had developed way too fast!
Although his current equipnt was nothing to cry about, he had good elental control, battle instincts, and also luck that was not usually found on ordinary players... The two of them could not fathom how strong Qin Ruo would beco once he upgraded his gear. Even if they boldly predicted that Qin Ruo could probably beco as strong as a Field Commander now, no one would object or be doubtful of such claim.
To tie down a player with limitless potential in a small party, how cruel was that? Violet Orchid and Slayer’s Heart decided to give their initial decision a second thought!
