This discovery undoubtedly filled the netizens with curiosity about the Seven Silver Coins’ “secret weapon” hidden in reserve. Originally eager to uncover some clues from other players, it became clear from the live broadcast that, as the words of the two masters fell, their teammates, rather than echoing, became extremely cautious, taking a step back.
Gentleman Fan pondered for a moment before asking, “Do we… really need to use this?”
Jiang Shi thought for a moment and replied, “We should be able to use it, right?”
The questioning tone of this response only made people feel even more uneasy. Deep Well Ice Player silently distanced himself again, inconspicuously pushing Serious Young Man squarely into the spotlight.
Serious Young Man was forced to suggest, “Master… how about the rest of us entering later?”
“No need to be so wary. I didn’t ask you to enter. While everyone is here, you guys hurry up and find the location of the final boss. As for the three teams here…” Jiang Shi looked at these people, who were on high alert, feeling a bit amused. He looked at the man beside him and said, “Will you accompany me?”
Han Yuze had the look of one willing to sacrifice himself for a gentleman, “Of course, I’ll accompany you wherever you go.”
“Have a safe journey.” Gentleman Fan waved his fan and bid them farewell. In the end, he directly pulled Serious Young Man and Deep Well Ice Player, not looking back, and ran away.
The smoothness of their departure seemed as if something were chasing them from behind.
Netizens: “…………”
Did they misunderstand something? Why does it feel like Poisoned Milk and Yu Weize have willingly sacrificed themselves?
The battle between the other three teams was extremely intense.
Because of the alliance between Blood Roses and Rattlesnakes, which had a numerical advantage, once they dealt with the troublesome puppet wall of Decorations, they quickly gained control of the situation.
Probably only at this moment did the Snake Scorpion Curse no longer regret purchasing the recipes for those two runestones.
The Firepower guild gradually weakened, and the health values of several individuals became precarious.
At this moment, swarms of mechanical armies converged from all directions. Upon joining the battle, they instantly turned the already chaotic situation into an even greater mess.
Under frequent disruptions, Mad Stomp had to swing his axe to activate the “Swatting Flies” mode, all the while sarcastically commenting on a bothersome mechanic, “Yu Weize, are you guys ever going to stop? If you want to fight, just come and fight directly! We’ve already said we won’t ally with you. Why are you still meddling? Don’t tell me you’ve suddenly become helpful?!”
“How can you talk like that? Even though the deal didn’t work out, goodwill remains. If they refuse to form an alliance, that’s their business. We, who understand righteousness so deeply, shouldn’t bear grudges. Besides, helping others is a traditional virtue throughout history.” Han Yuze said something no one could believe, but he had a solemn expression on his face. Under his operation, a legion of mechanical soldiers initiated several waves of assaults, and he smiled as he looked at the effective disruption, “And, as the saying goes, helping others for the sake of joy is a traditional virtue.”
Your traditional virtue! You speak as if you’re not lacking in virtue!
Everyone wanted to roll their eyes at his words, but on the other hand, this guy’s interference was indeed too annoying. The incessant buzzing in their ears was irritating, and finally, the two alliance teams in the field decided to quickly drive away this troublesome fellow from their sight.
“The other members of Seven Silver Coins are not here. Yu Weize probably just wants to buy some time, making it easier for them to find the location of the final boss.” Return to Spring’s Skillful Hands analyzed the current situation, seeking opinions from Rattlesnakes, “We can’t let them succeed, so we must resolve this quickly. What do you think…”
The Snake Scorpion Curse understood and responded decisively, “Leave Yu Weize to us.”
Return to Spring’s Skillful Hands had been waiting for this sentence, and he handed over the responsibility without any worries.
After making this decision, the reaction from the Snake Scorpion Curse’s side was swift. The dense poison circles, coupled with the storm stirred up by the Windstorm Sword of Unmanned Crossing, gathered the surrounding micro-machines in front of them, preparing to unleash a wave of skills. However, when they raised their heads, they saw the red warning lights blinking frantically on those micro-machines.
This is bad!
“Spread out!” The Snake Scorpion Curse never expected Han Yuze to directly initiate a collective self-destruct program. The tail sound of the word “Open” hadn’t even fallen yet, and a wave of intense heat surged towards them.
Boom, boom, boom!
The consecutive explosions shattered the surrounding rocks. Due to the gathering effect of the Windstorm Sword, all the micro-machines were concentrated in an instant, making the explosion even more stunning.
Not to mention the close-range impact on Rattlesnakes, even the Blood Roses and Firepower at the rear were equally affected.
When the rolling dust and smoke settled down, the players from Rattlesnakes were somewhat traumatized.
No one expected Han Yuze to use his ultimate skill at such a time.
The damage from this explosion was undoubtedly huge. If it were at a more opportune moment, it might have taken away several lives on the spot.
It can only be said that it was unfortunate that the positions of the others were relatively safe just now. This explosion at best heavily injured a wave of health. Without subsequent support from teammates, there was almost no substantive significance.
The momentum was great, but the result was not much different from an empty threat.
The Snake Scorpion Curse was also somewhat surprised that Yu Weize would make such a basic mistake. Could it be that he panicked and acted without thinking?
Vaguely, he felt that something was wrong. Waving his hand amidst the strong smoke, he was about to call for the healers in the team. When he noticed the players’ health status, he suddenly froze.
Even though this mechanic’s ultimate move had no other meaning besides reducing health, what about the health that was reduced?
Don’t talk about the Blood Roses and Firepower a little further away; even the nearest Rattlesnakes, under such massive explosive damage, surprisingly remained in their initial full health status.
Regardless, it’s impossible for everyone to be unharmed at such a close distance. This made the Snake Scorpion Curse’s uneasy premonition even stronger. Then, amidst the gradually dispersing rolling smoke, he saw the light-colored area that covered the nearby region.
Snake Scorpion Curse: “…”
It turned out to create a false impression of emptiness to protect the operation of Poisoned Milk. This person is really bold!
Tao Zi on the podium also found it remarkable, “Yu Weize used his ultimate skill to create enough time for Poisoned Milk to establish the runic field. If this isn’t true love, no one would believe it. But what I’m more interested in now is that the current domain, whether in terms of coverage or visual effects, is clearly completely different from those runic effects we’ve seen before. Earlier, some netizens mentioned that Seven Silver Coins might have hidden new runestones without using them. Now it seems that it’s true!”
“It’s very rare to hold the ultimate move until now, but what I’m more concerned about now is…” Brother Tiao, always watching the situation on the field, asked uncertainly, “So what exactly is the attribute of this field? From what I can see, it doesn’t seem to have any effect at the moment?”
Players on the field naturally also noticed this.
Because of this, although the coverage of this runic field is wide, the fact that nothing has happened so far has gradually eased the tension of the players from the other three teams.
Return to Spring’s Skillful Hands had already prepared to instruct teammates to withdraw from the field area. After watching for a few seconds, he decided to launch a strong attack on the Firepower guild.
No matter what Seven Silver Coins are planning, at least with Rattlesnakes blocking the way, the most urgent task is to quickly take down the current boss!
“Quick and decisive!” Return to Spring’s Skillful Hands reminded in the team voice chat.
The response he received was Mad Stomp’s somewhat confused voice, “I also want to be quick and decisive, but Old Chun, don’t you feel that something is wrong…”
What’s wrong?
Return to Spring’s Skillful Hands, as a healer, had always entrusted the damage output task to his teammates with confidence. It was only after Mad Stomp’s reminder that he noticed that, from some unknown time, the health values of their team’s players had not been decreasing. Or, not just them, but also the players of the opposing Firepower guild, and even Rattlesnakes who were entangled by the new mechanical army.
Everyone seemed to be impervious to damage!
And all of this started from the appearance of that runic field under their feet…
Return to Spring’s Skillful Hands, who had experienced so many ups and downs, realized the horror after a little contemplation. He felt a bit overwhelmed, “D*mn, could it be that Poisoned Milk has developed a runestone with a collective invincibility effect!?”
This time, there was no need for others to join the conversation. Jiang Shi’s voice suddenly sounded from a not-too-distant position, “You’re thinking too much, Old Chun. How could that be possible?”
Because Han Yuze was in the front line charging ahead, everyone’s attention was mostly drawn over there. Even the extensive runic field established after the explosion went unnoticed, and no one captured his location.
No one expected that this person had quietly reached the front line. Moreover, without any reaction time, they already heard his voice, smoothly taking over, “Everyone is curious about my new runic effect, right? Here’s another one; let’s take a look at the effect of the field together. It’s about time, too.”
“What time?” Return to Spring’s Skillful Hands asked subconsciously, but Jiang Shi didn’t respond. Instead, what answered him was the flickering light on the ground, forming small, scattered areas of light.
Apart from being too small in size, these areas could barely be called runic fields.
Undoubtedly, these runic effects were starkly different from the previous runestone effects, whether in terms of coverage or visual appearance.
“1, 2, 3, 4, 5…” Tao Zi subconsciously counted, gradually feeling a bit dazzled and widening his eyes in shock, “Are these all Poisoned Milk’s runic fields? How many arrays has he set up at the same time!?!”
Indeed, the number of these runic fields was too large, to the point that no one could answer him for a while.
Moreover, at this moment, no one even had the extra energy to consider this question.
From a god’s eye view, one could clearly feel the slightly chaotic formation of the players on the field.
Although they were cleverly moving to avoid, the newly sprouted small domains were too dense. Finally, someone accidentally stepped on them.
Then, everyone watched as the unlucky Rattlesnakes player suddenly disappeared without a trace. In the blink of an eye, he unpredictably appeared in the battle circle between Blood Roses and Firepower.
The sudden disappearance developed so unexpectedly that he seemed a bit stunned. Then, without waiting to land and adjust his posture, the glow of the large field around him coincidentally extinguished completely as its duration came to an end.
Boom!
As if the accumulated energy had completely erupted, the Rattlesnakes player, while clearing his health, exploded.
The tremendous airflow not only caused damage but also sent those around him flying.
Unaware, someone stepped on the small runic fields on the ground again.
The sudden disappearance, combined with the unpredictable sudden appearance, seemed to trigger some mechanism on the field. One after another, players entered a self-destruct mode.
Boom! Boom, boom!
The scene became quite lively for a while.
Jiang Shi had prepared to retreat at the first moment after completing the formation. At this moment, he stood side by side with Han Yuze at a safe distance, watching the situation on the field.
Looking at Han Yuze, who now only had a sliver of health left, he patted his shoulder with a smile, “Well done, from now on, let’s enjoy the fireworks together~!”
One is a runestone that covers a large area, absorbing and storing all damage suffered by everyone inside during the domain’s duration, and releasing it in a one-time burst after a certain period based on the accumulated damage. This effect applies to both allies and enemies, making it easy to accidentally accumulate damage to teammates, causing their health to exceed their limit and leading to mutual destruction;
The latter is a runestone with an extremely small coverage area, a variation of the original spatial attribute runestone. It can teleport characters entering the domain to a random location within a radius of 200 meters. However, due to the small area and the randomness of this property, it becomes impractical compared to the original spatial runestone.
Undoubtedly, both of these runestones have their own flaws, and it is precisely because of this that Jiang Shi has not used them until now.
However, pairing them up in this current situation seems to yield quite good results.
At least, the fireworks are beautiful.
