Chapter 318 The Panicked Sios And Yufan

Name:Is this really a Game?! Author:
Seeing Reign arrive before them so quickly made the two shocked. They were only now aware that the young man in front of them hadn't gone all out during their battle, he had been patiently waiting for them to grow weaker before exploding forth with his full power. The defensive array was only about 15 meters in front of them however and with their current speed, they could be there in a second, of course, those 15 meters would become incredibly hard to pass with Reign blocking their way.

Reign immediately attacked, his two swords were covered in lightning as he suddenly attacked Yufan with incredible speed. Yufan was barely able to use his scimitar to block the attack before Reign quickly delivered a quick barrage of attacks at him before switching his focus to Sios who had gotten about 10 meters to the defensive array.

The army acted as well, the cocoon-shaped devices they had were now depleted of arrows and they had been launching their own arrows at the defending army from the safety of the defensive array. Now they had switched their focus to Reign, but unfortunately for them, he was simply too fast and no soldier could aim clearly at him, all of the arrows launched simply passed through the air before hitting the ground or the walls of the gorge. With his two swords, Reign quickly arrived close to Sios before attacking with fury, lightning exploded from him as he sent a terrifying attack at Sios.

[Severing Light and Darkness ]

The powerful blow was definitely something that Sios wasn't able to defend against, the man, however, grit his teeth as he used the remainder of his mana to form another saw with his scythe, instead of throwing it at Reign however he simply put it diagonally in front of him in hopes of using it as a shield. Thanks to him using all of his mana the saw was larger and more powerful compared to before.

Bang!

The moment Reign's attack connected with the saw was the moment that Sios was sent flying. Even though his skill was incredibly powerful it still couldn't hold up to Reign and the terrifying power his top skills possessed, what Sios was able to do however was use the saw to block most of the damage and get sent flying toward the defensive array, in an instant he had already gotten inside of it. Even though he had received two huge cuts on his chest he was still alive and he would be able to survive the injury.

With the damage he had received however he wouldn't be able to fight anymore, even without the injury he would still be out of fighting thanks to him depleting his mana in order to block Reign's attack. His sickle had disappeared and the rapier and dagger had both showed themselves once again, the ability to almost disappear was gone as well, right now Sios was nothing but a normal soldier compared to before.

Yufan on the other hand was still in trouble, even though he had used the time given to him thanks to Reign attacking Sios, he was still about 7 meters away from the defensive array, and unfortunately for him, Reign had returned. He had already allowed one of them to survive and return to the defensive array, there was no chance he was letting the other one do the same.

Even though he was confident that he would be able to penetrate through the array and get to Sios later, he still had no idea just how powerful their army was and as such he planned on taking Yufan's life right here, right now. The tall man looks at him with a serious gaze as he suddenly ignites the blood on his scimitar, the blood-red flame gave off a dark aura as he looked at Reign resolutely before attacking.

Surprisingly Yufan's speed and power had not only completely returned, but he was even more powerful than before. Of course, Reign knew that for him to get such a big boost meant that he would be weakened to an incredible extent later, the only thing he wasn't certain of was exactly how long the blood flames lasted. Seeing such a skill made Reign remember back when they had faced the cultists in the BloodHill Forest, the leader of the cultist group activated a skill that was quite similar to what Yufan did now, and the dagger that dropped from him was also imbued with a similar skill that Shadow had used until managing to get his rank A daggers.

What Reign didn't know was that Yufan's skill was a bit different, even though all of them worked on the same principle, igniting blood, the way it was done and the reason was different. The cultist had ignited the blood with the help of the demon he had worshiped, Wolf used the power of the dagger to store blood in his knife before igniting it while Yufan used his own blood, not the blood of his enemies to gain more power before igniting it for an even stronger boost.

Even though the boost was immense, it came with great damage and pain. Because he had ignited his own blood, Yufan was now experiencing an incredible amount of pain as the scimitar would actually hurt his soul when using the skill. Other than that, the skill was one that was used as a last-second resort and Yufan could only keep it up for about 3 seconds, anything above that would make the pain so large that he might faint or even die.

Yufan immediately sent a terrifying sword slash at Reign, the sword wave launched at Reign was about 10 meters long and it was cutting the ground below it like it was tofu. Reign quickly clenched his two swords before replying to the attack with one of his own, in order to surprise his enemy and make sure that he would win he had used a combination of skills that he hadn't used in quite a long time.

[ Lesser Lightning Body ]

[ Lightning Charge ]

[ Lightning Stab ]

The triple combination of skills was something that Reign had used multiple times, after getting stronger however he simply didn't need to use it as the attack would concentrate on one spot, and against larger opponents like the ones that he had fought against, it simply wouldn't do much damage. The advantage of the combination however was the incredible speed that one would achieve after using it.

Reign suddenly disappeared before appearing right in front of the sword wave, his lightning lance immediately collided with it, and only then were Yufan and the rest of the people on the battlefield able to hear the loud clapping sound that Reign's movement had produced.

The sword wave, although incredibly powerful was only able to stop Reign for a brief time, all of his power was concentrated in one place and it didn't take long for the sword wave to get penetrated after that however the sword wave continued forward even though it was now split in half.

Reign on the other hand was already behind Yufan, even though he had lost a lot of speed thanks to the collision with the sword wave, he was still a lot faster than Yufan and was able to land a hit.

Contrary to what he thought, however, the attack wasn't fatal, Yufan still managed to shift to the side before being stabbed and a part of his left chest was gone, his heart however was still in one piece and even though the injury was serious, it wasn't life-threatening for him.

Yufan sent another sword light at Reign before sprinting toward the defensive array, he knew that he had no chance of winning, not only was Reign more powerful, but the crazy speed he could achieve with the use of his skills made it almost impossible to dodge or block.

With his boosted state he immediately ran with everything he had, he knew that the attack he had sent wouldn't be able to block Reign for long and that it would be a close call. When he was mid-way to the defensive array he heard a loud bang, he didn't turn his head as he knew that it was the sound of Reign clashing against his sword wave, when he was less than 1 meter away from the array he heard the sound of something being cut, once again, he knew what it was, it was his sword wave being split in half by Reign once more.

Right as he was about to enter the array he suddenly felt a sharp pain in his leg, half of his arm was already inside the array but he was unable to move as a spear enveloped in lightning had pierced through his leg. Before he could do anything he was terrified to see Reign's eyes mere centimeters away from him, the sharp katana had suddenly pierced through his chest and lightning exploded from inside his body, frying his organs immediately. Reign quickly took his spear and fell back as arrows and many skills were thrown at him from the army inside the array, Yufan's lifeless body suddenly falls down and gets enveloped by the barrier, he had finally made it, just a bit too late, however.
