Chapter 75 - A Skeleton using Divine Techniques
“What the hell just happened?”
“Why are the bosses killing each other? Is this some kind of cut scene?”
“That skill is ridiculously OP, it took away half his health in one hit!”
The players erupted into bewildered chatter, completely baffled by the situation. Why did the two bosses suddenly start fighting each other?
“I feel like that blood skeleton is up to no good. His weapons are bizarre – a scythe, a bow and arrow, then a spear and staff. Damn, those are some sick weapons!”
“Totally broken! Good thing we didn’t attack that female NPC just now, or we’d be back at the respawn point already!”
Seeing Jiang Cheng’s frightening arsenal, the players all breathed a sigh of relief, grateful they hadn’t made a move.
This blood skeleton was simply too monstrous!
“Huh? Who am I? Where am I? What am I doing?”
After two seconds of confusion wore off, the Blood Hell Demon Guard came to his senses.
However, he felt a bit weakened as soon as he awoke. His partner was in the middle of summoning an Evil Spirit Priest to heal him.
This sight left him somewhat stunned.
“What happened?”
It hadn’t been that long, right?
How did Arman already lose half his HP?
What was going on?
“Arman, you-”
*Boom! Boom! Boom!*
“-4412!”
“-4412!”
“-4412!”
Three Explosive Flame blasts detonated on Arman’s body, linking together in an instant and spreading outwards.
The freshly summoned Evil Spirit Priest directly melted into a puddle of blood, infuriating Arman.
Summoning the Evil Spirit Priest was his life-saving skill, with a 5 minute cooldown!
In other words, he was in danger!
“Arte, this is all your fault!”
“What did I do?”
Arte was dumbfounded. He was being wrongfully accused!
“Eat my blade!”
Thousand Wheel Slash!
Arman didn’t lose his rationality, but turned his head and slashed at Jiang Cheng who was 30 meters away!
“What are you spacing out for? Hurry up and kill that blood skeleton!”
“Oh, right!” Arte steeled his expression and rapidly closed in on Jiang Cheng, following behind the Thousand Wheel Slash.
“Die, stinking skeleton!”
Blood Hell Grip!
Arte channeled demonic energy into his hands. From 10 meters away, he activated Blood Hell Grip on Jiang Cheng.
But…aside from a somewhat awkward atmosphere, the scene he imagined of Jiang Cheng losing half his health in his grip did not occur.
He froze in confusion…
“What…am I doing?”
“Where’s my Blood Hell Grip?”
Arte blankly glanced back at Arman.
The air suddenly fell silent.
*Cling!*
A crisp ring of metal striking metal.
Just as the players and Arte expected Jiang Cheng’s scrawny body to be torn apart –
The blood-red cape on Jiang Cheng’s back burst into a fiery flourish, and in the same instant, a spear manifest in his hand, barely parrying the Thousand Wheel Slash before it could land.
Momentum Flash Strike activated!
To everyone’s shock, Jiang Cheng’s silhouette swiftly flew back. In that split second, he also took the chance to recall Blood Raven and the Dreadful Skeleton into the Necronomicon.
Then, pulling the slightly flustered Zhang Mengmeng with him, he retreated five paces, stopping a step after the blade energy dissipated, a mere half meter away.
“Holy shit! What kind of move was that?!”
“That’s one of the Fourteen Divine Techniques – Momentum Flash Strike!”
“No freaking way, an NPC can use Divine Techniques? I feel like the game admins must be messing with us.”
