The party continued down the passage and then down a flight of stairs. What greeted them were groups of skeletons and rotting corpses. There were also quite a few sarcophaguses. Ye Cang scouted ahead with his vision which was further enhanced by Eagle Eye, and then returned to the entrance. “There’s about 30 of them. 15 skeletons and 15 zombies.”
“So many? How many of them were intelligent?” CloudDragon asked.
Ye Cang thought back. “About 5.”
“We have to take out the intelligent ones first. They’re not only spellcasters, but they’ll affect the fighting strength of the others…” Everyone nodded at CloudDragon’s words. They would know best since they had been here longer. “Ok, Lele use your molotov’s sparingly. Shaking Bear, get as many of them as you can with your shield’s skill.”
“I can be a damage dealer here…” Little Ye Tian added in.
Little Ye Tian more or less explained how her healing spells could now deal damage to undead. Moreover, her holy text had an AOE damage ability that would work against them. ThornyRose hesitated, the team was already low on healers. Right now, healing skills were expensive, let along having a healer as skilled as Little Ye Tian with one. Perhaps many of the big guilds didn’t have a healer as good as her. If they let her deal damage, there was no one to replace her. ThornyRose was at a loss.
“Do as you see fit. Your main job will still be to heal. I trust that you have the ability to make the right judgement on when to attack.” ThornyRose knew the girl was a genius with an extremely high IQ.
“Mm…” Little Ye Tian nodded. She knew there was only her to support the team. Brother Xiong was the main tank and didn’t have time. Her father’s main job was to attack, and Healing Stream’s cooldown meant that it couldn’t be used often. It was mostly for emergencies where he could help share the burden.
“PaleSnow, GreenDew, you two focus on long distance attacks. Give priority to dealing fire damage. Focus on the intelligent ones first.” ThornyRose continued give tasks to the ranged attackers. She didn’t really have much to say besides the obvious. After finishing, she looked at CloudDragon.
“We’ll act depending on the situation, you don’t have to care…” CloudDragon said plainly. ThornyRose had nothing to be upset at with his tone. She was also not his match, she was even one of his fans. Furthermore, they actually shared a blood-relation. They could be considered distant cousins. “Alright then…”
CloudDragon looked at SpyingBlade to the side and quietly said: “Coward, you still owe me a fight. Do you still remember?”
“You disappoint me. You really are a coward. A good match for CompassionateStar, that dumb woman. Humph…” CloudDragon was extremely disappointed and mocked him.
A cold blade flashed.
Clang~ CloudDragon blocked the black dagger with his knuckles. He pushed it away and smiled coldly. “Do you only have this little bit of ability!? DarkBlade!”
“You can say whatever you want about me, but CompassionateStar isn’t someone you can insult! Fighting King…!” SpyingBlade said coldly, he expression filled with rage.
Clang~ Clang~ Clang~!
CloudDragon’s attacks were also dodged by SpyingBlade. The fight before them was a classic grappler vs assassin battle. FrozenCloud watched entranced. CloudDragon dodged as well as blocked and counterattacked at any time. SpyingBlade used his ghostly steps and ferocious attacks.
FrozenBlood raised her brows. It really was DarkBlade! There was only one assassin that was so berserk. He fought like a berserker but still had his ghostly steps.
“Moving like a ghost, fighting like a beast. The Frenzied Shadow – Darkblade.” YellowSprings couldn’t help saying DarkBlade’s famous description.
“There was a time that guy was extremely powerful…” BlackIce looked at the berserk phantom and murmured. She had been killed by him before, even while being heavily guarded.
Ye Cang became a silver flash, creating countless sword shadows.
Clang~ Clang~
Clang~ Clang~ Clang~
The two of them each blocked two or three strikes. Ye Cang smiled indifferently. “Let’s stop, you will have more opportunities to compete later…”
NalanMoon watched, excited. That scum’s attacks, how many could have she block? Perhaps 2? Even CloudDragon had let one through last time they fought.
“He’s right. Put aside your personal grudges, the team comes first…” ThornyRose quickly butt in.
SpyingBlade took a deep breath. He felt like he had become a bit weird. Whether it was for CloudDragon or for CompassionateStar, he slowly got up and said seriously: “I promise you, you’ll die by my hands at least once…”
“Let’s see if you have what it takes, coward…” CloudDragon looked into his calm eyes. SpyingBlade’s words were making his hand itch. Now he had DarkBlade, White Hair, and that Paladin. He really wanted to crush them. He gripped his metal knuckles tightly in anticipation…
