Chapter 108 - Facing the Onslaught
“Break what deadlock? We need to run, that’s the truth!”
Qi Tun Tianxia was quite anxious. He had just leveled up twice, spending 10 gold coins, and he didn’t want to die here and lose a level, wasting the gold.
“Junior Brother, stay calm. How can you become a master with that attitude?”
Yun Xiang persuaded him from the side, “A true master, no matter what situation they face, the first essential factor is not to immediately think of countermeasures, but to quickly calm yourself down…”
Drawing her greatsword, Yun Xiang continued,
“When people face moments of panic, their first instinct is often what their body reflexively tells them. Reactions made in this state are half-baked, with only a 50% chance of success.”
“Only by quickly calming down can you make the most correct decision.”
After speaking, she walked to Jiang Cheng’s side, standing behind him like an assistant, waiting for his decision.
At the same time, she shifted her body back, feet stepping backward, her hands pressing on the greatsword, ready to react at any moment.
“God, if there’s anything you need me to do, just give the order.”
Dharma Demon and Qian Chonglang also followed suit, coming to stand behind Jiang Cheng, ready to act at any time.
A Silly Cutie was a bit nervous, but she still stayed by Jiang Cheng’s side, tightly gripping the magic staff in her hand, ready to use Abyss Grasp on the group of Machete Soldiers.
These actions left Qi Tun Tianxia and the other two stunned.
Indeed, the gap between legendary players and ordinary players like them was not small.
Even though the three of them were guild leaders, there was still a considerable difference between them and Dharma Demon and the others.
This wasn’t just in terms of skill, but also in mentality and quality.
While they were still hesitating, the others had already made the decision to face whatever came their way.
Judging from Sword Hero Yun Xiang’s footwork, no matter what command Jiang Cheng gave, whether to advance or retreat, she could react immediately without falling behind anyone.
“No need to pay attention to them.”
Jiang Cheng watched as Blood Raven and the Godforce Arrow Master continuously killed the Machete Soldiers coming from afar, his cheekbones showing no change.
“Stand down and continue training as usual.”
Jiang Cheng had A Silly Cutie continue challenging An Xiang Youlan, making no movements himself, simply waiting for the Machete Soldiers to arrive.
“Oh… okay.” Zhang Mengmeng didn’t object and once again sent a challenge request to An Xiang Youlan.
“This…” An Xiang Youlan listened to the whistling of arrows by her ears, as well as the sound of footsteps and clashing metal armor in the distance, feeling a bit dumbfounded.
“Is this… really okay?”
Letting her fight someone while under the fierce assault of several hundred Level 38 elite Machete Soldiers?
Is this… the mindset of a master?
Would she… get scared into having a heart attack…?
However, Dharma Demon, Qian Chonglang, and Yun Xiang all nodded at her, indicating that it was fine.
An Xiang Youlan was even more speechless.
Indeed, none of these masters were normal…
“Alright then.” An Xiang Youlan also somewhat threw caution to the wind because refusing further might very likely incur the disdain of these masters.
If she agreed, the worst that could happen was losing a level. This outcome was definitely much better than being looked down upon by the masters!
“Cutie God, although I’m a priest, my Holy Light will deal damage to undead players if we’re not in a team, and the damage is increased by 200%. Be careful.”
Despite being a bit nervous, An Xiang Youlan could only helplessly accept the challenge.
Coming to a nearby patch of wild grass, the two switched to challenge mode and began to face off against each other.
“Fool, who do you think will win between the two of them?” Qian Chonglang asked curiously.
“I’m more interested in how Skeleton God plans to break this deadlock.” Dharma Demon looked at the approaching Machete Soldiers, the corner of his mouth slightly curling up.
Of course, it wasn’t just him. Even Yun Xiang, Qi Tun Tianxia, and Du Ba Tianxia had their eyes on Jiang Cheng.
None of them had the mind to care about A Silly Cutie and An Xiang Youlan’s duel.
The swarming Machete Soldiers were only 10 meters away from them!
There didn’t seem to be any particularly powerful subordinates in Skeleton God’s team, so what exactly was he going to do?
