Chapter 1028  YUNYUE VS SANGUIS (II)

THE arrow turned into something similar to a light arrow, and then it hit the projectile that was flying towards Zhang Ya. The collision caused a small explosion, blowing away the fog that was surrounding the area below. Before the dust even settled, another projectile came rus.h.i.+ng in Zhang Ya's direction.

Zhang Ya soared gracefully through the unforgiving landscape, her wings slicing through the frigid air. The relentless barrage of projectiles hinted that her a.s.sailant was quite skilled.

With all the dust settled, she finally had a good look at what was happening below. Or rather, the lack of it. There was literally nothing below. Which should have been expected, considering that her three teammates were teleported away.

Descending toward the rocky terrain, she spotted the hidden figure responsible for the attack. It was a small figure, concealed amidst jagged ice formations from quite a distance away. With that black hair and the two guns pointing at her, there's no doubt that the other was the gnome gunslinger of team Yunyue.

So, this guy would be her opponent.

Zhang Ya quickly notched an arrow and drew her bowstring, her archer's instincts guiding her aim. She let her arrow loose, intercepting one of the gnome's bullets with pinpoint accuracy. The icy wind howled around them as the arrow and the bullet collided.

The gnome, armed with two blazing firearms, continued to unleash a storm of bullets. Zhang Ya relied on her agility, darting through the frozen landscape with elegant maneuvers. Her pa.s.sive skill, [Archer's Focus], allowed her to track the gnome's movements and predict the trajectory of his shots.

The gnome's relentless a.s.sault pushed Zhang Ya to her limits. The shots being thrown at her were so diverse that it could drive one crazy. There was one that curves, one that disappeared and then reappeared, one that almost felt like a bomb.

With the way things were going, she would end up only defending until the match ended. She had to do something. She leaped gracefully, ascending higher into the sky, using the rugged terrain below for cover.

From her elevated position, she a.s.sessed the gnome's position with clarity. She nocked another arrow, her [Precision Shot] skill ready. With a steady breath, she aimed at the gnome's firearms, attempting to disable one of them.

But the moment she released her skill, the gnome raised one of his guns into the sky. And a flaming meteor shower descended from above.

Now, let's go back a bit in time when the three members of team Sanguis were teleported.

When the fog spread and the three were suddenly encased within its scope, the icy ground they were standing on glowed and the next thing they knew, they were being teleported somewhere.

Tang Xun, who was pretty excited to fight White Marsh, was disoriented by the sudden s.p.a.ce traversal. Before he could get his bearing back, he had to send a message to everyone about what happened to him. Which wasn't really much since he still felt a bit dizzy from the teleportation.

When he was finally able to balance himself, a strong strike came from his left. If not for his still somewhat groggy state, he might not be able to dodge it. Yes, that sounded a bit weird, since it should be the other way around. But it was because his body was swaying that he was able to.

His body quickly reacted, and he jumped back a couple of times. He turned in the direction where the strike came and saw a huge, muscular man with orange-sunset hair that looked like that of a lion's mane.

"That's a good reflex," White Marsh said with a c.o.c.ky grin.

Tang Xun's eyes widened. The surprise on his face immediately turned to excitement.

"No way, you're a.s.signed to me? Seriously? This is amazing! How can I be so lucky?" he said, practically screaming in exhilaration.

White Marsh raised his brow. "You're one crazy guy."

Then he rushed for an attack.

Yin Jian was much calmer than Tang Xun when he was teleported. He quickly accepted his situation and sent a message to his teammates. After that, he erected a barrier. Just in time for purple lightning to come cras.h.i.+ng down.

Seeing that purple lightning, he immediately had an idea who his opponent was. And as if to prove his guess, a sword slash hit his barrier. As soon as it did, cracks appeared on his barrier. Then it broke like some fragile gla.s.s.

The opponent dashed forward, almost like teleporting because of how fast he was. He raised his sword and slashed it down. But the sword met a strong hindrance.

Yin Jian raised his head and met the amethyst beast-like eyes of the swordsman before him. "Too bad, huh?"

YUN did not say anything and just raised his sword once again.

-----

Qin Rus.h.i.+ was also just as calm as Yin Jian. Since she had already suspected that team Yunyue separated them so they could have a 1 vs 1 fight as soon as they were teleported, she was able to calm down much faster.

She quickly took out her harp, her weapon as a Bard. Preparing to defend herself.

"Don't worry, I won't do a sudden surprise attack," a familiar voice from behind said.

Qin Rus.h.i.+ turned around and saw a girl with pink hair and glittery b.u.t.terfly wings. She almost called the other by her real name when he saw her.

"So, it's you against me, huh?"

"Well, your avatar's race kind of has an edge against players of the opposite gender," the other said, shrugging, referring to Qin Rus.h.i.+'s game avatar being a succubus. "And since I'm the only female on our team, I'm kind of the only option left to fight you. So, here we are."

Succubus and incubus in Arcadia had an inherent advantage over the opposite s.e.x whenever they fight, like in PvP matches, or official battles like this one. Whoever their opponent was, they would automatically suffer a debuff. So, this decision was understandable.

"Then, shall we?" she asked.

"Sure," Su Yuqi said, raising his staff.
