Chapter 706: winged ta.s.sel vs malekith (ii)

INSIDE the protection of his wings, Winged Ta.s.sel's eyes that were usually bent into crescent was now showing a sharp light. The red iris of his eyes showed a kind of crazed look. 

This was unexpected. He didn't think that he would actually feel the need to go full power at this stage. He, at least, thought he could hold himself back until the finals. But this punk really just had to use such an annoying skill. Oh well, nothing could be done.

He didn't plan to lose here. He still wanted to fight that other elf. Preferably with that fox. Remembering the blue gem on the fox's forehead, a certain type of antic.i.p.ation filled his mind.

So, he couldn't lose here.

He drank a high-grade potion to fill his depleting MP. Then, he held the hilt of his sword. It's time for a counter-attack.

There was only a minute left before the effect of [Dark Land] disappeared. But this d.a.m.n guy was still standing there, protected by his wings. Ying Chen started to frown. Although the other's clothes were in tatters and his skin was full of small wounds, his wings still looked okay. No, it looked like they were in a perfect state – undamaged. 

It only infuriated Ying Chen. Were those wings made of metal or something?

But he did not dwell on that for too long. He needed to finish this fight quickly. But if that was not possible, then, he should at least deal a major damage. Like cutting a wing.

The dead Mana that was floating from Winged Ta.s.sel's body flew above Ying Chen's two palms. The dark gas-like thing started to look viscous like a slime. Its shape slowly changed. It turned into two long needles, both were a meter in length. The viscous surface had already changed and had solidified. It now looked more like the surface of a black diamond.

With his preparation over, he made a swis.h.i.+ng gesture and the two-meter-long needle flew towards Winged Ta.s.sel at a very fast speed. With this speed, add that to the needle's sharpness and hardness, the impact would definitely be devastating. It would probably destroy those d.a.m.nable wings. No, it definitely would.

If those wings were destroyed, then the two needles would continue on to hit Winged Ta.s.sel's body, dealing a huge amount of damage to him. Then, he would follow that up with the same attack again and again until the effect of the [Dark Land] disappeared. 

If the other could survive from that, then, he just had to use another skill. Although he had to wait for a minute. That's another side-effect of using the [Dark Land]. Inside the black dome, he couldn't use any other skills and when it's over, he would be vulnerable for a minute.  It didn't only mean that his stats would be lowered, he also couldn't use any skill.

That's why he had already prepared a back-up plan to make up for this disadvantage.

The two needles finally hit the wings. And Ying Chen smiled in triumph when he saw both needles bore a hole on the wings. He was already expecting to see a body that was. .h.i.t by the two needles. But to his shock, he did not see one. Because there was n.o.body behind the wings!

Before he could react properly to this unexpected turn of events, he suddenly saw the long blade of a katana pa.s.sing through his chest. His eyes widened. He glanced back and saw Winged Ta.s.sel holding the katana that was now lodged on his chest.

He couldn't understand how the other suddenly appeared behind him without him noticing. Because of the continuous draining of dead Mana, the other's body had been emitting dark smoke. That meant that he should have seen him move as the dark smoke would act as some sort of beacon.

But that didn't happen. It's either he teleported or his agility stat was simply through the roof. But he didn't have time to ponder on that. A dagger made from dead Mana appeared in his hands. He stabbed it back with all his strength. But it was impeded by a couple of feathers. 

These d.a.m.n feathers!

He took that chance though to jump away from the other. Unlike what most of audience thought, Ying Chen was fine despite being stabbed. But he was not happy at all.

It was because the back-up plan that he prepared accidentally activated because of the other's attack. It was an item that would automatically activate as soon as he received a physical attack. Any attack would pa.s.s through his body for the duration of one minute. The exact duration of the time that he would be vulnerable after the effect of the [Dark Land] disappeared.

But now that it was activated 30 seconds ahead of time, he would still be left vulnerable for 30 seconds! And there's a lot someone could do for that short amount of time.

He was cursing and spitting out all kinds of profanities inside his head. His expression became even uglier when he saw the other's feathers slowly attaching to his back until they made two completely unharmed wings. 

So, his attack didn't even reach the other. There was even a high chance that the moment those two needles attack Winged Ta.s.sel earlier, the other purposely showed him those holes to lead him to believe that his attack work.

F*ck!

"You really are quite tenacious," Winged Ta.s.sel said, his eyes were no longer bent into crescents and there was only an annoying smirk on his face.

"I could say the same to you," Ying Chen retorted back. "In fact, you're almost like a c.o.c.kroach."

"I'll take that as a compliment," the other said. "It's better to be an undying c.o.c.kroach than a flimsy b.u.t.terfly."

Ying Chen felt that the other was referring to him with that a.n.a.logy. He even felt more annoyed. "Shut up."

He stretched out his hands, pointing at the other. The gathering of dead Mana became faster. Needles after needles kept appearing until the whole dome was covered with them.

Winged Ta.s.sel didn't mind and just drank potions to replenish his MP. The moment the needles attack him, he held the hilt of his katana and rushed forward.
