Chapter 1418: How can we remain stagnant?

Translator: 549690339 

“Cover me!” That was the last thing Xiao Tan said before he jumped.

No one knew what he wanted to do when he shouted that. Of course … Compared to this, everyone was thinking more about how Yingying was going to protect a person who was about to be killed.

However, after about ten seconds, everyone, including the demon fighter, would understand what he meant and shout “F * ck” in their hearts.

“Annoying bug …” Looking at the figure that jumped towards it, the combat demon snorted and made a gesture as if it was chasing away a mosquito.

Based on his experience, an action like this was more than enough to kill a traveler from another world.

In an instant, a black, pure Mana Burst out from the back of his hand. It was like a wave of fire that shot into the sky, creating an irregular energy impact.

The next second, Xiao Tan’s body was completely covered by the energy, and he was probably obliterated.

But …

“What?” In less than a second, demon fighter noticed it. “An afterimage?”

Yes, the one in the air was just an afterimage left behind by Xiao Tan’s [wind stops the dust fragrant flowers has withered] that would only last for three seconds.

Don’t think that this was just a D-level fighting mastery skill, it was useful.

Using the time bought by the afterimages, Xiao Tan’s real body successfully closed in on the combat demon and activated a skill.

To explain what this skill was, one had to first mention the other item,[bacaisang Flying Horse doll].

[Name: bajiangsang Flying Horse doll]

[Type: other]

[Rarity: broken]

[Special effect: the holder can use the special skill [dancing snow in the nine Heavens](this skill will not be affected by the upper limit of the skill bar)]

[Possession condition: male, bound after picking up]

[Able to bring out of the scenario: yes]

[Remark: bajiaosang treats Ma Fei as a good friend. Every time she is scolded by Zeng Liangjun, bajiaosang will hug Ma Fei tightly to seek spiritual comfort.]

After such a long time, it is likely that the audience has long forgotten the origin and effect of this item, so I will explain it again.

This “bajiangsang’s Flying Horse doll” appeared in the story of “Chapter 33: the detective is forced to return.” It was a reward that Xiao Tan received after he completed a side quest on his own. In other words … This was an item that he had brought back from the world of Junhe.

All this time, Xiao Tan had not really used (in fact, he had tried it a few times) the skill that came with this thing because it was a very annoying skill …

[Special skill: dancing snow in the nine Heavens]

[Effect: suppress the target to the ground, making it unable to move (cooldown 5 hours, requires continuous guidance, can only be used on humanoid/humanoid NPCs or monsters with normal vision)]

[Note: This is a G.o.dly skill that is superior to the “romantic two dragons playing with pearls and chrysanthemum picking hands (an eye-piercing move)”. It was taught by the G.o.d of haiku to Mats...o...b..nana, who is temporarily affected by “I can’t stop the mushroom.” The only drawback of this skill is that it will stop if the user is disturbed by external forces during the casting process.]

Just by looking at the description, one might think that this skill was very ordinary, but in fact, just like the [devilish child’s lower whip kick] from the world of NIHE,[dancing snow in the nine Heavens] was also a [law of causality] skill.

It had four main strengths, first, it didn’t take up a skill slot; Second, there was no consumption, third, as long as it hit, the suppression would be 100% successful. Fourth, the duration had no upper limit.

Among these four points, the most crucial one was the “unlimited duration”; In the skill description, there was no time limit for the “continuous guidance.” In other words … As long as the caster did not want to stop and no one interrupted him, he could continue to use the skill … Even if the skill lasted for five hours and the cooldown time started from the moment it was cast, it did not matter.

This … Was the method that Xiao Tan had come up with.

Demon fighter didn’t expect that the attack he had just casually made was actually so important. Demon fighter’s fearless att.i.tude, carelessness, and underestimation of the enemy made him miss the only chance to stop the opponent from making a move before the opponent got close to him.

In the blink of an eye, Xiao Tan had activated the special skill that came with the item … He used one hand to press on the face of the fighting demon, and then he was flipped upside down on the fighting demon. After the position was stabilized, Xiao Tan’s other hand started to brush his hair and spray dandruff …

Of course, these weren’t actual “flakes”, they were just an effect created by the skill. Even if the caster was bald, when the skill was used, there would still be endless, white,”flakes”-like substances falling like snowflakes …

“What … What …” After being hit, demon fighter revealed an expression of disbelief, and this expression quickly froze on his face.

Under the effect of the skill, the demon fighter spread its legs and knelt on the ground. His arms were spread out and drooped powerlessly to his sides. His eyes were staring upwards, looking at the man-made “snow scene” through the gaps between the fingers of the palm pressing on his face … He could not move his eyes away, nor could he close his eyes.

The most terrifying thing was that no matter how much force he exerted, he couldn’t move his body, not even open his mouth to speak … All his senses were normal, and he could feel that his strength was not affected, but he just couldn’t move, nor could he use any other means similar to “telekinesis” or “out of body” to change the situation.

“Hurry … Hurry and cover him!” A moment later, the first person to react … Was Billy.

As expected of a “smart” guy. After watching for a while, he understood what was going on. He quickly used his power to transmit his voice to every soldier on the battlefield.

Hearing this, Xu Huai Shang, King Mo Xiao, and the other soldiers of the king’s army reacted almost instantly … They all rushed toward the demon fighter.

They had no idea what Xiao Tan had done, but no matter what he had done … It had worked.

On the other side … The redundant soldiers did not do anything in the face of this series of sudden changes.

As the intelligence of these guys was relatively low, they were unable to a.n.a.lyze overly complicated problems. With the presence of the Rogues, they naturally had to act according to the tactical control system carried by the Rogues.

At this moment, the tactical control system’s feedback showed: The combat strength of the demon fighter didn’t drop. Even if he was surrounded, the probability of his death was still close to zero.

Therefore, the result of the Rogues ‘calculation was that … There was no need to do anything for the demon fighter. Since the king’s army had not chased after them, they should follow the original plan … To wait for the troops to continue before launching the next round of attack.

Just like that, in an almost comical state, the battle demon was controlled by Xiao Tan alone, and the battle … Entered a delicate waiting and stalemate.
