“Kill him.” Augustine did not want to waste any breath on William. He had read many stories on knights. Whether it was the protagonist or the antagonist, the people who deserved death, did not die due to unnecessary talking.
When he used to read them, such stories and these scenarios angered Augustine.
But he would never commit such a mistake.
Besides the two subordinates whom William killed, the execution team had not suffered any other casualties.
Augustine deployed five members to restrain the players who continuously revived while the rest of them surrounded William.
Augustine made the first move.
Flashes of blades.
Flames searing the sky.
William crossed both of his swords defensively, as the ground underneath him cracked open.
A figure appeared behind his back and pierced at his torso with a blade. William dodged but he didn’t manage to go unscathed. The blade cut into his stomach, and fresh blood splattered on the assassin’s face.
William ignored his wound and the assassin behind him. Instead, he executed a vicious kick in the front, and Augustine had to block it with his hands to prevent injury to his groin. However, the huge impact still sent Augustine flying, and his body created a gully that was a few meters long.
Dust swirled frantically in the air.
William ignored the execution team members who surrounded him. His slashes were like lightning, while his thunder sword energy was intimidating. He dominated Augustine and caused the latter to retreat uncontrollably.
During this time, William’s battle energy shield was breached.
At this moment.
Augustine slashed at an angle with his long blade, and a ray of flaming light was emitted. William was engulfed by the brilliance of the sword energy. He had to back up tens of meters, and his body was engulfed by inextinguishable flames and became charred black.
The figures of the execution team became blurred as they moved around rapidly.
Bang!
An explosion was caused by the activation of the Soul Shock Wave, and tens of figures were sent flying into the air. Their souls were seemingly detached from the bodies. But the attack did not cause much damage, the targets were only blown away with some negative BUFFS.
William suffered a loss of a third of his health points. His eyes were filled with an icy intent. He made use of an opportunity to execute the Hand of Soul and pulled in a master-level opponent who was struggling hard. William stabbed his sword into the opponent’s neck, and fresh blood spewed into the air.
Augustine charged forward while William retreated while holding the master-level opponent hostage.
A sacrificial offering.
The translucent soul of the opponent was extracted and sucked into William’s body. His health points shot up immediately!
“Slay him!” Augustine furiously shouted.
One after another, sword flashes appeared. And due to these flashes, it seemed that a Fire Dragon had come into existence.
William threw the corpse that was in his hands at the Fire Dragon.
The Fire Dragon bellowed and swallowed the corpse while advancing towards William.
“Slaying the Dragon.”
William sneered and activated his battle energy shield. He slashed with both swords above his head.
Bang!
The sky exploded with voluminous flames as the Fire Dragon had been reduced to shreds.
Faint blue lightning flashed in the sky while energy waves emanated out. The trees at both sides of the road burst into flames.
A figure dashed out from the exploding energy waves and colliding with Augustine. Both of them rolled on the ground and the force created a deep groove.
They recovered and stood up almost at the same time.
But on William’s head, a blade had appeared and was about to land.
The battle energy shield shattered and the Helmet of Light that had a high defensive bonus was cut into half.
William, who had long black hair, lifted his head and glared maliciously. He ignored the state of his head and retaliated with a slash!
Battle Energy Cut and the Light of Dawn.
Long and narrow sword energy sliced through the throat of an epic warrior.
The warrior clasped his bleeding throat and retreated profusely, ultimately falling dead.
“Thump!”
A shield-bearer dashed forward and bashed his shield on William’s body. It sent William flying…
Augustine glanced at the foolish shield bearer. As he was about to charge at William, he was stopped by three arrows that were flying at him.
Swish, swish, swish.
Augustine turned his head to avoid an arrow while his Dragon-slayer blade blocked the second arrow. But there was no defense to stop the last arrow.
The arrow pierced into his brow chakra and exploded.
Augustine’s head flew back due to the explosion. In the next instance, he lowered his head and glared in front. He then clenched his fists and aimed it at William’s position.
Flames, tens of meters tall, shot up into the sky like an inferno pillar.
Fire elemental magic!
William had not landed on the ground when he was hit by the inferno pillar. He was sent flying once again. This time, he was not able to fire his arrows in the air, as the impact had blown the bow away from his hands.
There was no pause in the battle.
A figure leaped high up and released sword energy that was a few meters long. It crashed down on William…
Bang.
William fell heavily to the ground. It looked as though he was unable to get up.
But before the figure was able to kill William, a person dashed out from the burning trees. He grasped the figure’s head and smashed it viciously to the ground.
Crash!
The ground cracked open and sunk a few meters.
Violent Dragon had arrived on time. He smashed the figure’s head with a single blow.
Augustine’s execution team was getting worried. They realized that William was the bait and a dangerous one at that.
“Retreat!” Augustine sheathed his sword and wanted to flee.
Violent Dragon laughed coldly and said, “Flee? Who’s giving you the chance?”
It was simple.
Torrential rain fell from the sky.
The water elemental mages were working hard to extinguish the fire.
500 powerful master and epic-level warriors who were engulfed in battle energy charged out from the flames and surrounded the execution team.
“Follow my lead.” Augustine smiled coldly and slashed with his sword. The flaming sword energy sliced the ground and formed a burning line.
Besides a shield-bearer who braced the sword energy, the rest of the people started retreating.
The confident shield-bearer was pushed back tens of meters. His shield and body were cut into half.
Violent Dragon’s arrival had given William some time to recover. After doing so, he stood up and charged forward. He wanted to kill Augustine.
Since they were no longer restrained, the players also revived.
But as they saw the scene of the battle, they were befuddled. Then they looked at each other instinctively. They wanted to talk but could not articulate any words.
“Shouldn’t they be talking while fighting? Like naming the moves?”
“Is Lord William so powerful?”
“You call that powerful? This is beyond powerful. Look how many archery and combat skills he has. Is he supposed to be a ranger, or is he a warrior?”
Forever Alone became silent when he heard the word ranger. He was also a ranger, but he had to resort to bootlicking the BOSS…
William was indeed a legendary BOSS, who was nearing a high-level status. He fended off a legendary BOSS, seven epic and many master level opponents before reinforcements arrived. And he still had the energy to continue fighting.
“Charge! Don’t play the game if you’re afraid of dying.” A player shouted and charged forward.
Their combat power was inferior. However, they could still prevent the execution team from fleeing.
Forever Alone nodded and smiled as he shouted, “Charge in the glory of our leader!”
“Fight for our leader!”
Thirty players entered the battlefield. They had been downgraded to level 10, and their equipment had been destroyed. However, even if they died, they would not be downgraded any further. They would not lose any equipment either.
Should they not follow their legendary fearless BOSS, and kill for all their worth?
Anyway, unlimited rewards were waiting for them…
