Chapter 196 - Valiant Battle (XIV)

Editor: Humu

When the group of people faced the stalker named Nie Cong, the ident.i.ty of the other party obviously made Ying appear restricted. Abyss doesn’t want him to feel sad or upset just because he remembered what happened to his friends, so he took the initiative to prepare for the battle. But he felt it was necessary for him to know something before he was ready to fight.

“Do you remember what kind of weapon this guy used?”

When Abyss asked Xing Yan this, Xing Yan seemed to try hard to recall, but the answer he gave was still disappointing. Xing Yan shook his head and said he could not remember.

On the other hand, Duan Li also seemed to recall some things. He said, “I only felt that he died very quickly at that time, and after I met him, I was instantly wiped out……if I did not have any live-saving prop, maybe I wouldn’t be standing here today.”

Abyss’s heart was a little tangled for a moment. One had to know how powerful Xing Yan and Duan Li are, especially the current Xing Yan, who had been a stalker.

The secret chamber’s will had transformed him into a stalker and had similarly enhanced his abilities. Therefore, he was much more proficient in utilizing his spatial skills. He could control s.p.a.ce to a certain extent within a certain s.p.a.ce. Not only could he use his invisible spatial blade to cause damage to the enemy, but he could also cause a spatial distortion in the area indicated in his mind.

The so-called spatial distortion phenomenon was something that would break people apart; the head, body, hands and feet of the person may be twisted and separated and sent to different spatial positions. At that time, even if the enemy was so powerful that his abilities could reach the heavens, he would also not be able to fix his body.

To have Xing Yan as one’s opponent would be extremely terrifying. Abyss thought about whether he could defeat him at that time. However, after simulating a simulated war in his mind, he found that the winning rate was fifty-fifty because Abyss had already copied the weapons of Xing Yan. If he knew enough about his opponent’s weapons, he could also use his spatial powers to counterattack.

Abyss was actually jealous when he thought about it. Yes, he was very jealous of Xing Yan’s talent. He was born with the ability to become someone strong. He did not even need to gain experiences through fighting like Abyss because he could already become this strong naturally. If he could give a grade to talent, Xing Yan might belong to SSS.

However, even Xing Yan was afraid of the opponent in front of him now. Nie Cong, opposite them, stood quietly, waiting for Abyss and company to take the lead. He seemed to be listless, but his blood-red eyes formed a stark contrast with his pale face. His thin and weak stature made him look as thin as a matchstick……

If one had to describe him, one would feel as if this person had been tortured for long periods.

Ying, who was standing at this side, could not help calling Nie Cong’s name. In fact, he also knew that Nie Cong would never answer him, but he still could not help it. He still carried hopes that this person familiar to him could respond to his voice.

But the result had already been expected. Nie Cong was still standing there, staring at everyone.

“It is estimated that he wouldn’t let us pa.s.s by that easily. Should we charge?”Qi Ling who was in the team couldn’t help but put in a word. Several people hesitated for a moment. At this time, Abyss said, “I’ll go to test the waters first, and you guys should be careful.”

Everyone nodded and agreed, so Abyss waved his blade and morphed his weapon into a longbow.

In fact, it would be better if he could use long-range weapons like muskets, but Abyss preferred the longbow in his hand. The original owner of the bow was one of the top experts in Asura Realm. He was someone who could reap people’s lives even if he was a thousand miles away from that person.

Although opponents who used long-range weapons such as bows and arrows were generally weaker in close combat.

However, on the battlefield, this bow could be aptly described as the two words: ’cheat bot’. Its attack range could cover the whole Asura Realm. A one-dimensional arrow could kill more than half of the crowd in Asura Realm. These arrows would fall from the void, causing a rain of arrows on the battlefield. They were all solidified bodies of energy, which would cause large-scale explosions when landing.

This bow was almost copied by Abyss. The original owner of the bow was very careful and did not like to die at all. He laid a defence net around him with an arrow array and fired automatically at 360 degrees indifferently. Almost no one could get close to him. It was worth mentioning that the arrows shot by the bow had the property of blood-sucking. When the arrow hit the opponent, it would cause damage and heal the bowman himself.

At the same time, the original owner of this bow was also the player who had ‘lived the longest in Asura Realm’. He was first to break the record to live the longest. Abyss came second.

Abyss stroked the bow in his hand. It formed a perfect crescent shape. The color was dark blue. There was no need to prepare an arrow. As long as the bowstring was pulled up, it could automatically generate a translucent water blue arrow. Each time the bow was pulled, it would consume a small amount of physical strength and energy. However, if one shot continuously, hundreds of arrows would go out, and the consumption was not what ordinary people can bear.

Although Abyss was very familiar with this weapon, he couldn’t use his energy like its original owner. It did not mean that Abyss lacked any energy. On the contrary, because he had to use too many kinds of weapons, he had to conserve some energy.

So, he left the team, jumped to a commanding height, pulled the bow in his hand, and aimed at Nie Cong opposite him.

Just when he pulled the bowstring, Nie Cong opposite him also saw Abyss’s blatant act and placed his focus on Abyss.

This was actually an opportunity. Some people in the team soon realized this opportunity. Now when Nie Cong’s attention was diverted away, Luo Feng directly a.s.sembled his weapon into a rocket launcher and aimed at Nie Cong and sent a blast towards him.

What’s strange was that Nie Cong never attempted to block it. His attention was still on Abyss. When Luo Feng bombarded him, he didn’t even move a step, so the sh.e.l.l exploded directly on him. The thick black smoke immediately engulfed the narrow circular battlefield. Then, Abyss had now drawn the bowstring fully sent a cloud-piercing arrow pa.s.sed by to disperse the smoke in the field in an instant.

Nie Cong, who was standing there, was undamaged. The power of the explosion seemed to have not affected him at all. His clothes were clean. There was a circle around him, and the floor outside of the circle was burnt black because of the explosion.

The arrow that Abyss shot out was nestled in the palm of Nie Cong. The strength of the arrow seemed to be dissolved by Nie Cong and soon became invisible in his hand.

“He maxed out his defence points.” Abyss who had squatted on the commanding height muttered to himself. But within half a second, he refuted his own remarks, “No, it feels more like he’s absorbing the attack.”

However, when Abyss was deliberating about what occurred in the battle, something startling happened. Abyss suddenly felt his eyes blur. He instinctively used the bow in his hand to pull up the defence net. At the same time when he did this, Nie Cong appeared in front of him as if he moved here in an instant. Nie Cong never used any weapons but he moved his hands forward to scratch him.

Although Abyss had instinctively avoided his scratch, Abyss was still in a state of shock. This is because he did not realize how the other party came over to him. He appeared in a blink of an eye. Does this fella also possess spatial abilities?

But Abyss was very familiar with the fluctuation of s.p.a.ce. Even if he had used the power of s.p.a.ce, it would produce a certain amount of energy fluctuation when it was used……but there was no fluctuation when this guy moved! Nie Cong’s body had no such fluctuation! Abyss did not feel any energy from this person. It was as if his body was hollowed out. While his body was still here, Abyss felt that the other person was not there.

For the first time, Abyss recognized that he terrifyingly felt fear, so he took a backward jump to retract from the opponent’s reach, and he unconsciously took a glance at his weapon, the bow. This crescent-shaped bow had just resisted an attack for Abyss. Somehow, the bow that Nie Cong had touched looked a little dimmer.

Aware of the abnormality of his weapon, a terrible thought took shape in Abyss’s mind. He stepped back again, went straight back to his team, and quickly said to one of his comrades, “Be careful, that guy’s ability is probably something related to ‘elimination’!”

“Eliminat…..ion!?” When everyone heard this word, their reactions were all different, but they all looked worried.

This so-called elimination was to eliminate attacks, eliminate things, eliminate creatures, and even eliminate causality.

Either destroy, or simply eliminate, or erase, just like using an eraser to erase the things that were drawn on the white paper. If the other party touched him, one was afraid that their bodies would be erased, like how an eraser could erase a picture.

So, after they heard Abyss said this, this group of people were shocked, “This ability is also too f*ckin’ abnormal!”

But Abyss continued, “I’m afraid any other attack will not work for him, he can also eliminate the damage done. But one thing I can be sure of is that no matter what kind of ability the enemy uses, he will consume his own energy when he uses it. So, if we attack him continuously, he has to eliminate our attack, therefore, consuming his energy.”

Duan Li said, “That is to say, as long as we keep attacking him, it will consume his physical strength, right?”

Abyss continued to shake his head. “Not necessarily. What I’m worried about is that the other party may also have absorption abilities and other similar abilities. If he absorbed our energy to supplement himself, our constant attacks will backfire.”

“Isn’t that horrifying……how could this guy be so powerful.” Ah Lan could not help but take a careful peek at Nie Cong opposite them. He seemed to notice something, “He looks really weak.”

“Weak?” Hearing Ah Lan’s words, Abyss could not help looking at Nie Cong again. Yes, when he saw Nie Cong for the first time, he felt that he looked very weak, pale, and had a thin stature. He looked as thin as a matchstick and seemed to have experienced torture for long periods that his entire person appeared hollow.

Nie Cong did not seem to like the chattering discussion of the group of enemies in front of him. He suddenly disappeared and appeared in front of the crowd. He first reached out to Duan Li, the one nearest to him. Duan Li keenly perceived it. He immediately raised his blade and made a direct impact on the ground. He broke the ground apart and opened some distance between himself and Nie Cong.

“Never get close to the other party!” After Duan Li pushed a large distance away from him, he yelled. Everyone could not help but step back. Ah Lan was also taken care of because Duan Li jumped up again and pulled him behind him.
