Earth Control!
I activated Earth Control and charged straight ahead, relying on my movement speed boost. Another shield warrior from the Mie Tian guild elite team was blocking the path between me and the temple exit.
“Shit!” Bai Li Mie Tian was horrified—three rows of shield walls couldn’t stop her, how could this single shield warrior possibly hold her off!
That shield warrior reacted quickly, but his movement speed was far below mine with Earth Control. I sidestepped his shield bash and brushed past him.
“Shield wall team, stop her! At all costs!”
At this moment, the boss was clearly in a last-ditch frenzy of extreme rage! Most of Mie Tian’s players had let their guard down, clustered near the boss and frantically competing for damage. If I escaped the temple, the boss would lose its restraint and suddenly erupt, potentially even one-shotting everyone on the field!
After three rows of shield walls were broken, this time they formed five rows. The single mission of these five rows from start to finish was to stop me, to trap me inside the temple!
“Utterly childish.”
I jumped and dashed! Soaring through the air!
First wall, broken!
Charm Voice!
Same trick: grab a charmed unfortunate and flip past him.
Now the fourth and fifth rows were simultaneously blocking both ground and air routes, and Charm Voice was on cooldown.
Heavy Fall!
Landing.
The fifth row of shield walls on the ground immediately activated [Shield Charge] and converged on me, determined to crush me with their shields and make me unable to move an inch!
Activated charges, huh?
Jump again!
Now the shields were less than a meter away, hurtling toward me at high speed. If they hit, I’d be stunned and then controlled endlessly. I could even hear Bai Li Mie Tian sighing in relief behind me.
Bai Li Mie Tian let out a breath—so close, though Heavy Fall had no cooldown, it was too late to use it again. She’d definitely be knocked flying back.
Heavy Fall!
But this time, Heavy Fall couldn’t dodge the shields in time; they would inevitably hit my head.
Next second, Bai Li Mie Tian suddenly cursed: “f*ck! What kind of move is that! How the hell is that even possible?!”
“A 360-degree backward aerial somersault during Heavy Fall?! The landing time for Heavy Fall is less than a second—she’s not afraid of breaking her neck! And she used that incredibly tight rolling time difference to dodge the charging shields… I underestimated this girl!” Killer San finally lost his composure, but then his battle intent surged, his desire to kill me growing stronger. “Boss, time to act.”
“No need to remind me!” With the fivefold shield wall broken, Bai Li Mie Tian, face dark, activated Charge and closed in on me.
But my feet had already landed outside the temple.
This time, Leturas didn’t stand up immediately. Instead, he rose slowly but powerfully, planting his great golden sword before him.
He stood proudly, ignoring the players, his crimson eyes gazing into the distance, toward the endless blizzard outside the temple.
“Princess Sheng…”
His voice was still deep and resonant, but now tinged with sorrow and weariness.
“I’ve been waiting…”
The Mie Tian players were furiously outputting—the boss was clearly about to unleash a big move; they had to hurry!
“I’ve been waiting for your promise…”
“You promised me that my race would eventually be vindicated.”
“But the snow in the North keeps falling, endlessly falling.”
“I kept waiting, endlessly waiting.”
“Why… why…”
More and more ferocious firepower poured onto Leturas, his health dropping lower and lower, yet he seemed oblivious, unmoved.
You said that once you became a god, you would wipe out all these hypocritical deities. “But why… have you still not returned…” “If one day you return and see this ruined temple, please do not blame Leturas.” “Leturas has knelt here for thirty thousand years.” “Also…” A purple-black gale swept through the temple! Leturas slowly pulled the enormous golden sword from the cracked temple floor. Suddenly, the wind howled so fiercely that players inside the temple could barely stand! “Also… Leturas never betrays the oath of the stars!”
**************
Outside the temple, Bai Li Mie Tian and his four companions had Su Shunhua tightly surrounded again.
“Kill!” Bai Li Mie Tian knew it was impossible to force Su Shunhua back into the temple. Since that was the case, she must not be allowed to leave alive! Bai Li Mie Tian charged first, trying to engage Su Shunhua in close combat.
“Heh…” Su Shunhua naturally wouldn’t bother with a warrior. She pushed off the ground, accelerating toward the ice mage of Mie Tian’s elite team!
“EX—Frost Nova!”
To Su Shunhua’s mild surprise, this ice mage’s Frost Nova was different from the ordinary version—it enveloped everything in a 360-degree radius without blind spots!
Unfortunately, Su Shunhua’s real target wasn’t him; attacking the mage was just a decoy. She stomped her right foot, her body shooting left, barely dodging the EX—Frost Nova’s coverage at the last moment, and lunged at her true target—the priest!
Charm Voice!
No one was charmed, but everyone had to take the damage from Charm Voice. Soon, the Mie Tian elite team realized with horror that after that soft chant, their health had all dropped by nearly half!
Such terrifying damage!
“First one.”
A smile curled at the corner of Su Shunhua’s mouth—a long-missed smirk of toying with an opponent.
Yingning’s death had ignited the suppressed dark fire within her for too long.
“Since you helped me break my chains, then, as thanks, you will bear all the consequences!”
The priest tried to run, but his movement speed was too slow. Su Shunhua caught up in a single stride and knocked him flying with her staff!
Light Snow, Fairy Wind!
[System Notification: You have killed player Bai Li Wu by justifiable defense.]
Ducking to avoid a dagger aimed at her nape, Su Shunhua kicked off again, splashing a spray of snow, and shot toward the ice mage, who no longer had Frost Nova.
He had been chanting for a long time, and now it was near the end.
“Frozen Orb!”
Frozen Orb was an area-of-effect spell—a slow-moving ice orb that continuously released ice spells around it.
Su Shunhua smiled sweetly, suddenly grabbed Killer San’s collar, and using him as a pivot, flashed behind him in the blink of an eye!
All the ice spikes from Frozen Orb were blocked by Killer San, and the orb itself crashed into him. Though Killer San took no damage, he became Su Shunhua’s perfect shield!
“Second one.”
Su Shunhua’s voice was calm, but that calmness was like a death countdown, sending chills down the mage’s spine!
She said the first one, and the first one died.
The second one—was it his turn now?
How many more would there be?
