Chapter 238: To Annihilate A Party, The Support Must Be Taken Out First
In an instant, all the Abyssal Demons turned and ran, disappearing swiftly into the distance. Their speed was even faster than when they had arrived.
Mo Yun was dumbfounded, the Succubus's words, "It's Lin Moyu, run!", etched deeply in her mind.
"Why... why are they so afraid of you?"
Lin Moyu had guessed this outcome when he saw the Succubus, "Maybe they're scared that I'll kill them."
In reality, since arriving at the Immemorial Battlefield, Lin Moyu hadn't killed that many Abyssal Demons. Instead, he had killed Dragonkind class users the most. Who knew why they were so afraid of him?
Lin Moyu inquired, "How long ago did you get your Primordial Rune?"
"Five days ago."
Just half a day after obtaining the Primordial Rune, she had begun her life on the run. These past few days had felt like years, with every minute and every second etched distinctly in her memory.
Lin Moyu uttered, "Stay with me until the Primordial Rune fully belongs to you."
Mo Yu could see that the Abyssal Demons were terrified of him, indicating that Lin Moyu was incredibly powerful.In these past few days, she had endured enough—danger, humiliation, exhaustion. Who knew how she made it through.
In the end, she swallowed her pride and accepted Lin Moyu's offer, "Okay."
Lin Moyu continued forward, with Mo Yun, who rode her Unicorn, following by his side.
"Did you succeed in sublimating your class?"
Now that she had time to relax, Mo Yun lay limply on her Unicorn, "Yes, I did. I'm now a Holy Spirit Summoner. This is my new partner, a Holy Spirit Unicorn."
The Holy Spirit Unicorn lifted its proud head and released a soft neigh.
Lin Moyu smiled. The summoned beast, not unlike its master, was quite proud
"Can you tell me what happened during your class sublimation..." Lin Moyu wanted to ask Mo Yun about her class sublimation, but was interrupted by the sound of steady breathing.
Mo Yun had fallen asleep atop her Unicorn. After the ordeal of the past few days, she was thoroughly exhausted.
...
In the meantime, the Succubus flew far away with the bunch of Abyssal Demons. These Abyssal Demons were all above level 50, putting them above Succubus Alice. But at this moment, they were following her command.
This was highly unusual for Abyssal Demons, who adhered to a strict hierarchy.
Alice patted her chest, "Thankfully we ran quickly!" She was filled with fear of Lin Moyu.
"Lady Alice, why are you so afraid of that human called Lin Moyu?"
"He seems to be only level 30."
Some Abyssal Demons expressed their confusion.
Alice replied, "It's not that I'm afraid of him; I just don't want to disrupt Lady Demon Queen's plan. She has been preparing it for several days. The plan can't be interrupted halfway."
Upon hearing the words Lady Demon Queen, all the Abyssal Demons revealed a shade of infatuation.
An Abyssal Demon reassured her, "Lady Alice, please rest assured. The Lady Demon Queen's plan will succeed. We will do our utmost to ensure it."
Alice chuckled, "That's great! Only one more day to go, we're almost there!"
...
In the central area, brilliant and captivating rays of light shot out, intertwined in the near-infinite sky, and then dispersed, illuminating the entire Immemorial Battlefield.
This place was the most perilous, yet it also brimmed with the most opportunities. World bosses, secret realms, high-level dungeons, they could all be found there.
Among these, the most renowned was the Divine Selection Secret Realm. Almost everyone who came to the Immemorial Battlefield hoped to enter the Divine Selection Secret Realm, and then acquire divinity.
For human class users, obtaining divinity could significantly increase the probability of class sublimation during class awakening. Moreover, the earlier divinity was obtained, the better the chances.
Bai Yiyuan claimed that if Lin Moyu could acquire divinity at level 30, then by the time he reached level 40 and had his second class awakening, combined with Blackened Soul Crystal, the probability of class sublimation could rise to 99%.
This might be a bit of an exaggeration, but it served to highlight the importance of divinity. There was only one chance to undergo the second class awakening, and it was crucial to maximize this opportunity.
For Dragonkind class users, the effect of divinity was slightly different. Divinity could awaken their bloodline. It was said that there was a chance to awaken their primordial bloodline, significantly enhancing their combat power.
For Abyssal Demons, it was simpler. By devouring divinity, they had a chance to advance and even become Demon King.
The benefit of divinity was tremendous. Consequently, every time the Divine Selection Secret Realm appeared, fierce fighting ensued.
The Divine Selection Secret Realm ranked second among all the opportunities in the Immemorial Battlefield's upper layer. The first was naturally the Primordial Space, accessible only to those possessing a Primordial Rune. The third was the Demonic Dragon Hall dungeon that could drop Dragon Crystal.
In addition to these three major opportunities, there was another major opportunity. However, no one had ever obtained it. It was an extremely powerful world boss located in the core area, and no one had ever defeated it.
Lin Moyu wasn't thinking about any of this for now. Following Bai Yiyuan’s instructions, his primary goal was to reach the Divine Selection Secret Realm and acquire divinity. After all, the lower his level when he acquired divinity, the better.
Over the past few days, his EXP had reached 63%. If he delayed any further, he might level up, complicating matters.
Suddenly, a massive aura descended, firmly locking onto Lin Moyu and Mo Yun.
Mo Yun, who had slept for an entire day by this time, awoke with a start, her face filled with panic as she looked at the sky, "What's happening?"
Before she could get a response, a dense rain of arrows fell from the sky, followed by a huge meteorite.
Almost instinctively, Mo Yun let out a startled cry, and her Holy Spirit Unicorn neighed loudly and emitted a bright white light from all over its body that formed a shield, enveloping her and Lin Moyu both.
The rain of arrows clattered against the shield, distorting and deforming it, creating numerous dents. Fortunately, Mo Yun’s shield was sturdy enough to withstand the rain of arrows. When the arrows passed, the meteorite followed.
The Dragonkind Mage's powerful skill unleashed a meteorite more than 10 meters in diameter, crashing down onto the shield with a deafening blare. The meteorite exploded on impact, and Mo Yun released a cry.
Remarkably, the shield not only withstood the impact but grew even stronger. As a Holy Spirit Summoner, a mid-level legendary class user, Mo Yun's performance was impressive. She managed to block attacks from opponents over level 50 while she was only level 41. No wonder she had managed to survive the pursuit of the Abyssal Demons.
"Hurry up, get on!" Mo Yun released a high-pitched shout, making space again, motioning for Lin Moyu to sit on her Unicorn. She was visibly anxious. Although she could withstand a couple of volleys, but she wouldn't last long.
Lin Moyu's nonchalant voice sounded in her ears, "Don't worry, it's fine."
Fine? Stop kidding! The ones pursuing her were a party of Dragonkind class users, each over level 50. Escaping unharmed seemed impossible. How could it be fine? If they didn't flee now, there would be no chance later.
However, Lin Moyu's calm expression made her believe that everything would be fine.
In the sky, there were six Dragonkind class users: one Knight, one support, two Archers, and two Mages. This configuration was common among Dragonkind parties. Lin Moyu had defeated many such parties in recent days.
Another volley of arrows rained down, and a meteorite began to form in the sky.
"Not being able to fly is really inconvenient!" Lin Moyu stepped out of the shield's range, exposing himself to the rain of arrows.
The Bone Armor glittered, effortlessly deflecting the attacks. Compared to the powerful strikes of the Earth Evil Centipede, this level of attack was nothing.
Upon seeing Lin Moyu step out from the shield's range, the Dragonkind Knight drew his sword and charged at him.
"Two Primordial Runes, this is a big haul."
"One is level 30, the other is level 41, both humans, we're really lucky."
"What a bargain."
Their voices were loud and full of energy, their eyes gleamed with a predatory glint, and their tongues swept across their lips in bloodthirsty anticipation.
The Dragonkind Knight, distracted by the allure of the Primordial Runes, failed to notice the intense Dragonkind aura emanating from Lin Moyu. That was an amalgamation of the residual aura left by the many Dragonkind class users he had slain.
The Dragonkind Knight was very fast. In an instant, he was upon Lin Moyu, his sword glowing brightly.
Skill: Cross Cut!
"Watch out!" Mo Yun cried out in alarm.
Lin Moyu remained still, letting the attack fall on him.
The Bone Armor glowed faintly, blocking the Dragon Knight's strike. To break through Bone Armor, the Dragon Knight would need to unleash a dozen-plus strikes of similar power.
The two Skeletal Warriors, standing on either side of Lin Moyu, stepped forward and brandished their blades, slashing at the Dragonkind Knight.
The Dragonkind Knight was greatly shocked, promptly engaging the Skeletal Warriors.
Only those who had fought the Skeletal Warriors before would know how strong they were. Even without status buffs, the Skeletal Warriors' four attributes had reached 40,000 each, surpassing the level 50 Dragonkind Knight.
"How can they be this strong?" The Dragonkind Knight exclaimed in disbelief.
The skeletons' attributes clearly were nothing much, so why was their combat power so terrifying? This defied all logic!
Lin Moyu pressed his hand down. Consequently, a hum filled the air, and red light cascaded to the ground.
Skill: Slow Curse!
Next, a flame rose in his hand and pulsated, and a miserable scream echoed in the air.
Lin Moyu didn't attack the Dragonkind Knight, who was right in front of him, but instead focused on the support in the air, the only support of the Dragonkind party. His class was similar to the human Battle King class, in that it could both perform status buffs and proved treatment.
Unlike the human Battle King class, this class was common among the Dragonkind. Lin Moyu had killed at least ten Dragonkind class users with this class in the past few days.
Lin Moyu had learned from experience that to annihilate a party, the support must be taken out first.
