MMORPG: The Elementalist Chapter 650

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation  Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

When Violet Orchid and Violetmoon Devilite were a.s.signed by Qin Ruo as Judge's personal Priests, they had cast aside their own safety and were willing to sacrifice themselves any time. Even so, they still couldn't help but quiver when they realized the two beams coming out from the skull's sockets were actually targeted on them.

The sovereignty of the Divine Specter pressured them like a giant moving boulder.

In that instance, the two ladies experienced first-hand how miserable it was for Judge to hold up the Grand Reaper from close range.

Despite the incoming death threat, the two Priests had chosen to stay put and instinctively cast another quick Healing Spell on Judge. As long as Judge was kept alive and continued to block in front of the Grand Reaper, then their primary attack plan would still work.

The laser beams reached their chests the same moment two healing spells left the two Priests' hands.

This was when a familiar shriek suddenly echoed behind them. A wave of energy spread throughout the battlefield with a devastating force. Even the light-speed laser beams were stopped short by this invisible ripple.

At the same time, a clear yell rang from their back, “Elemental Wave!”

The same magical fluctuation and the equally warm golden yellow radiance rushed past their body without harming them. The spell then completely nullified the Death Laser in front of them.

“We are saved.”

Violet Orchid and Violetmoon Devilite immediately understood the situation when they sensed the arrival of the Elemental Wave. Encouraged, they did not turn back to confirm their speculation but continued to release another instance of Healing Spell to support the tanker, Judge, in front of them.

“Great!”

“Well done!!”

A series of inspiring cheer was heard from his back.

‘Phew!'

The two pretty Radiant Priests following Qin Ruo also let out a sigh of relief.

They were called upon to the task unprepared. The charge and the release times of the spell were all completed by following Qin Ruo's hand gesture strictly. The two Priests were so nervous that they dared not blink their eyes throughout the whole process.

‘Fortunately, our spells have saved Sister Violet and Devilite just in time.'

In addition to feeling pleased by their own contribution, the two Radiant Priests were also deeply impressed by the mysterious and powerful League Commander standing right beside them.

They were astonished by how the Commander was able to predict the Divine Specter next move so accurately even when they were heavily overwhelmed by the Specter's presence.

If not because of Qin Ruo's foresight, they might not be able to solve the crisis so smoothly.

Still, they did enjoy being applauded by the large group of players they had thought highly of before. The two Radiant Priests stood proudly at both sides of Qin Ruo while waiting for the next instruction.

Judge and Majestic Hero were glad to see Violet Orchid and Devilite escape the predicament unharmed.

Once his Brilliant Guardian's time was up, Judge hastily withdrew his s.h.i.+eld. He then slashed his war blade upward following a growl, before bringing it down at an even quicker speed.

This one up and one down movement was actually two Berserker's skill—Dragon Ascension and Raging Slash—combined in one fluid motion. The two attacks continued to trim away Endurance points off the Grand Reaper's Barrier.

Simultaneously, Majestic Hero had also returned to the battlefield through the air after completed charging his next spell.

Five purple lightning rays shot from the sky and electrified the Death Barrier. Coupled with Judge's attack, a total of five skulls were crushed this time and the DemiG.o.d soul trapped within it were set free in the form of black smoke. This was the highest count of souls the Grand Reaper lost at a time.

Watching the disappearance of one after another soul from the Death Barrier, members from the Fallen Angels who witnessed the fight from far were thrilled.

“The eleventh!”

Ten percent of the one hundred and eight DemiG.o.d souls had been exterminated by the primary combat party.

Meanwhile, they had only experienced one casualty so far.

Moreover, the only deceased, Homme Fatale, had gotten back on his feet after resurrected by the Priest. He reclaimed his item and directly summoned his Angelic Wings without opening up his defensive barrier first. He rushed to the battlefield immediately carrying the buff and Healing Spell cast on him by the rescue team. That was when he concurrently activated his Barrier and condensed spell.

The primary combat party had once again returned to full force.

“d.a.m.n! How long more do we have to wait before it's our turn?”

After seeing Judge regaining the attention from the Grand Reaper and Homme Fatale rejoining the fight, players like Remorseless Warrior and Wandering Soul could no longer hold their urge. They wished to jump into the battle immediately and fight the Divine Specter themselves.

“Come on. Be grateful. Look at how many comrades were lined behind us. We are already lucky enough to be selected as the secondary party.” Dinosaurcerer's voice drew near.

“F*ck!”

“Here you are again!”

A lot of players covered their nose at the same time when they saw Dinosaurcerer approaching them with his latched Deathfiend Spider. They waved him away. “Please! It stinks! Get it away from us!”

“Why so fussy about the little things at such a grand moment?” Dinosaurcerer showed them a middle finger before he succ.u.mbed to their protests and put away his pet.

Behind them, other members from Fallen Angels had no words.

‘We are facing a mighty Divine Specter here, right? Our party may be wiped out at any time. Aren't you cadres a bit too relaxed?'

In the wake of the players' train of thought…

On the battlefield, the popular League Commanders from Hall of Heroes had finally met his first demise. After he personally took out the eighth DemiG.o.d soul, the furious Grand Reaper skipped past Judge and raised to the sky to “chew” Majestic Hero down.

But his death did not cause the slightest concern among the human invaders.

This was because Judge had recalled his Angelic Wings and ascended to the air together. He quickly stood in between the Grand Reaper and the retreating Homme Fatale after another successful electric bombing by the latter. Simultaneously, the two Radiant Priests who stood by at the rear immediately attended to Majestic Hero. They waited for the Grand Reaper to move thirty meters away from them before began to bring Majestic Hero back to life.

The Grand Reaper howled ragingly. The howling had been going on ceaselessly ever since it was. .h.i.t by the diversified strategy the human sc.u.m had played out.

The two Electromancers were completely immune to the fear of death. They attacked relentlessly, then fell back to recharge, then came right back at it again and again. Even after they were killed, help would reach them rapidly and they would soon be on their feet again.

The Grand Reaper was especially helpless against the Steel Berserker who kept following it.

The unique set of equipment on the human had made him tougher than a DemiG.o.d Warrior. Its devastating Tier 7 Multi Magic that had never disappoint also couldn't instant kill the Berserker. It was largely due to this shadowing pest that the Grand Reaper had lost more than seven hundred Endurance points on its supposedly impenetrable Barrier.

What was more depressing for the Grand Reaper was that it couldn't even manage to get rid of the Radiant Priests under constant hara.s.sment by the Electromancers and the Steel Berserker.

Just a moment ago, after his first attempt was neutralized by Elemental Wave and a waving force originated from an odd little beast, his next two tries in killing the human Priests were effectively deterred by few Elementalists using their Barriers. The Grand Reaper knew the same attack would no longer make any significant difference after this.

In less than a minute, the human adventurers had pried away more than sixty DemiG.o.d's Souls from the Death Barrier with a cunning strategy. The initially complete skull had now deformed after losing more than half of its original Endurance. It appeared that the despicable bunch of human pests was going to break through its barrier soon.

“Wait… Something's not right. Why the Boss has suddenly slowed down?”

“I noticed that too.”

A group of Veteran Champions who watched the fight from the perimeter had come to realize the anomaly.

Those involved in the fight might not be aware, but the observers, including Qin Ruo, had detected it immediately too. The Grand Reaper had obviously slowed down when it tried to chase after Majestic Hero or Homme Fatale. Even the frequency of spells that landed on Judge had reduced drastically.

Unlike at the earlier stage, Judge's HP was easily restored to the max by Violet Orchid and Violetmoon Devilite within few seconds.

“This is fishy.”

‘The calm before the storm. Let's not let our guard down!'

Qin Ruo immediately asked the Elementalists around him to strengthened more Chaotic Barriers on Violet Orchid and Violetmoon Devilite.

At the same time, he also instructed the secondary combat team to roll out.

Slayer's Heart and Wandering Soul were positioned to cover for Violet Orchid and Violetmoon Devilite.

Dinosaurcer, Snowleaf, Burning Rose, several others Pyromancers and Solarmancers, meanwhile, were asked to standby at the perimeter. They were tasked to destroy the Death Barrier before the Grand Reaper took any drastic measure.

Once the Death Barrier was destroyed, they could then finally go all out against the Grand Reaper true form. Qin Ruo and co. couldn't wait to have the final showdown against the Divine Specter they had antic.i.p.ated for days.

Unfortunately, the Grand Reaper exploded into action before Qin Ruo could fully deploy his troop.

Under the attention from numerous human adventurers, the distorted giant skull suddenly opened its deep dark giant mouth!

Yowl!

It screeched.

As if resonating to the Grand Reaper's call, a decaying aura usually found only on the dead suddenly gushed in from all directions. The aura rapidly a.s.sembled around the Grand Reaper like fluffy cotton that propagated continuingly.

Immediately, the sky of the Underworld had transformed radically too.

The Grand Reaper had maneuvered the death aura of the entire s.p.a.ce to numb the human adventurers' senses. Qin Ruo and every Elementalist within a hundred meters to the Divine Specter could clearly feel their Elemental Perception being s.n.a.t.c.hed away.

Furthermore, the channeling speed had also decreased dramatically.

The affinity between Elementalist and Element had been disrupted by the death aura and had become extremely sluggish. The Healing Spell from a Radiant Priest was altogether affected as well…

“s.h.i.+t!” Just as Qin Ruo grumbled over the disastrous turn of events, an emergency notification rang beside his ears.
