The old mansion of the Luca Family was located in the outskirts of this city, once a place of grandeur and bustling activity.
However, since the Eleven Kings War, the family’s power has rapidly declined, to the point where they couldn’t maintain the mansion anymore. It was then sealed.
Tonight, the blue flas illuminate the night, lighting up what was once a magnificent courtyard.
Ancient warriors, wearing Mountain Pattern Armor, tightly gripping Mo blades, stared at the unusually tall figure at the door.
Standing at over two ters tall, his face possesses a strange triangular tattoo. His bare upper body is entwined by a thick iron chain.
The chain on both ends connects a mace and an axe head. The sparks produced by dragging it on the ground are unsettling.
"It’s a Berserker! They...must have found us." If Luca didn’t understand the situation now, he wouldn’t be worthy of being a sorcerer.
Feeling the overwhelming oppression, like a tidal wave, Li Changhe stood his ground with his blade, while carefully scanning the surroundings.
If his initial thoughts were right, those who have co to encircle him were not alone!
As for how the opponent found him so quickly, Li Changhe wasn’t surprised. If they could find a Knight, they could certainly find him using the sa thod.
It could be so kind of skill or technique, or perhaps the ability of a Contractor, an NPC.
This point could be verified later.
The triangle-faced man, or should we say Flamingo, seeing Li Changhe keeping a watchful stance, opened his mouth: "Your response was quick. Too bad, even if you guessed it right, you still can’t change the situation."
Indeed, in this kind of [Task], facing more than one [Player] simultaneously, Li Changhe might be able to hold his ground for a while.
But to defend Luca while fighting, that would be almost impossible.
That’s why Li Changhe didn’t use his chanical bow to launch an initial attack. He had to beware of the [Players] hidden in the dark.
Prepare for the worst-case scenario, assuming the four players who entered the storyline world earlier have allied.
The most dangerous is not the Berserker in front of him, Flamingo. Although, he does pose a threatening risk to Li Changhe.
But in this complex situation, even if the strongest, Big Iron Pestle, is in front of him, Li Changhe wouldn’t focus all his attention on him.
Because the most dangerous one is that assassin, the Assassin Rank, [Scholarly Rogue: Wildcat]!
Under the chanism where the Contractor and the [Player] rise and fall together, the dangerousness of assassin-type players has greatly increased.
This type of [Player] is already the most dangerous presence in the task.
For example, in the [Mysterious Island], the Moon God and Li Changhe didn’t rush to target the opponent’s strongest, Volga. Instead, they planned to seriously injure the opponent’s assassin, Lady Nanzhuang, first.
Because they were worried about her stealth and danger.
If the target was to assassinate Li Changhe, he might be able to counteract so asures. But to assassinate Luca...
The Hundred-Headed Shooter coupled with the chanical bow is powerful, but when facing an assassin who may appear nearby at any ti, the power would backfire. If he overthrows himself with his own attack, it would be catastrophic.
Li Changhe’s brain was processing quickly. The current situation was extrely unfavorable for him.
If you want to defend against assassin-type players, then you can’t use the chanical bow.
But without the chanical bow, he’s at a huge disadvantage against multiple attackers.
"However, this is ultimately a single versus task." Yun Ting’s voice echoed in his mind, "Once one of them gets hurt or consud too much, the so-called allies will show no rcy."
"That’s right." The blue light flickered, and after responding in his mind, Li Changhe looked at Flamingo and said out loud: "Enough talk, let’s get ready for battle!"
"I want to see if you can bring down without a scratch!"
Yes, without a scratch. Because, their cooperation has a fatal flaw.
There can only be one victor in this mission.
No matter how they fight together, they will end up fighting each other.
In the end, their cooperation is just to eliminate strong competitors and win.
When a powerful ally and the opponent fiercely battle, getting injured, the situation becos delicate.
Alliance?
In the worldview of [Players], it’s the least reliable thing in the world. They only keep their promises when you are useful to them.
When you’re weak and injured, you beco a lamb waiting to be slaughtered!
Want to team up with other [Players] to attack Li Changhe or kill Luca? That’s fine!
But they also need to be careful. If they get injured or exhausted while besieging Li Changhe, they will beco the prey of their allies!
The attitude that Li Changhe displayed is that even if he were to be eliminated, it has to be at the cost of the attacker getting hurt.
This is not just to Flamingo, but also to those guys hiding in the dark.
After staying silent for a mont, Flamingo suddenly sprinted forward.
The chains dragged on the ground created dense sparks, even overshadowing the distant lights.
With the montum of a mountain collapse, he charged towards Li Changhe located tens of ters away.
Li Changhe didn’t pull out his blade to counter. Instead, a figure darted past behind him, startling Luca.
By the ti Luca reacted, nine silver long nails from the archer’s left waist had been thrown into the sky.
Flamingo cautiously glanced at the long nails in the sky. He wouldn’t underestimate any of his opponent’s moves.
He wouldn’t underestimate the bowman in front of him either.
As for contractor’s claim that the hunter is the weakest, it’s a baseless joke.
In this mission, are there any weak heroic spirits (players)?
He beca even more certain after his confrontation with the Knight last night.
"In a head-on fight, there’s only a 40% chance of winning. The guys behind him, how dangerous it could be?" Flamingo was clear that without the help of other [Players], it would be difficult to win against those guys!
Only by taking out the most dangerous opponents can they have a chance to win.
"That is...a Symbiotic Body? It’s just a normal throw into the sky, not aiming at . What is the purpose? Could it be his ability? Or is he just trying to distract ?" Flamingo could judge the trajectory of the long nail with a single glance. Like petals thrown by flower girls at a wedding, they slowly and chaotically fall.
Flamingo felt sothing was off, even though he didn’t see anything peculiar, he didn’t think the other party would make aningless moves.
"Close up, being a long-ranged [Player]. Getting up close in hand-to-hand combat can evade his attacks!" Flamingo sped up even more.
Suddenly, Li Changhe stretched out his left index finger.
Flamingo’s charging body shook slightly, slowing down.
It was as if a huge pressure had descended from the sky, breaking the tiles under his feet instantly.
The blood in his body seed to be sinking, as if it was trying to drag him into an endless abyss.
At the sa ti, a fatal danger was approaching from ahead.
Flamingo felt a spike in his heart and decisively gave up the attack. His left hand swung sideways with a loud bang.
The strong force allowed him to change direction while running.
Just as he turned around, several bone spears with odd slls sprouted from the ground.
