Chapter 432: Chapter 398: Fight to the Death!_2
Don’t be fooled—despite losing an arm, if given the chance, Rocky believed his adversary still possessed the ability to threaten his life fatally, so he targeted this person first.
Seeing Rocky charge at him, the injured squad leader did not choose to retreat. He knew that he could not compete with the White Demon in terms of speed, and so he abandoned evasion and directly opened his Magic Energy Shield.
In the blink of an eye, Rocky had closed the distance, and, following that, he raised the scythe in his hand and brought it down with a swing!
Without activating any mana, even this ordinary slash left a trail of light as it fell, as though the sharp blade was slicing through the air itself, and then there was a crisp “crack” as the blade heavily struck the Magic Energy Shield.
It was blocked!
Raising his only remaining arm with all his might, the squad leader had braced himself for the possibility of being cleaved in two. So, when he discovered that he had indeed blocked the strike, a great joy surged in his heart.
…
Unfortunately, he then noticed that the once-blocked scythe was visibly passing through the Magic Energy Shield!
It won’t hold!
Realizing the Magic Energy Shield had barely hindered the scythe and was about to be shattered, the squad leader reacted swiftly, dodging a second before the scythe fell and then watching as the scythe sliced through half of the Magic Energy Shield beside him.
That was close!
As he watched the scythe shatter the Magic Energy Shield and fall, the squad leader broke into a cold sweat. Had he been a mere second slower, he would have been split in two.
But just as he was inwardly relieved, Rocky, whose strike had missed, raised the scythe once more and brought it down again!
This is the end…
As Rocky’s second slash fell, the squad leader who had just escaped death resigned himself to fate. The Magic Energy Shield was already broken, and it would take time to reconstitute it, so he was utterly powerless against this second strike…
But just at that moment, just as the sharpened edge of the scythe was about to bisect the squad leader, a Mana Sword and a Magic Energy Spear suddenly appeared from both sides. The two Mana Weapons crossed paths, firmly stopping the descent of the scythe!
The other two squad leaders had arrived!
After all, Rocky was now facing three enemies, all squad leader level, and having missed his strike had already lost the best opportunity to finish the fight. This allowed the other two squad leaders to arrive on time, snatching their comrade from Rocky’s grasp!
Meanwhile, after being rescued, the injured squad leader didn’t even think before raising his hand, and with a flash of light from his palm, a Magic Energy Beam shot towards Rocky!
Reaction.
Coordination.
Flawless.
Such is the caliber of the Squad Leader Level Void Magic Warriors!
Faced with this attack, Rocky swiftly flew upward, then, accelerating, he made several right-angle maneuvers in succession, instantly landing behind the trio and in the moment of touching ground, he swept his scythe horizontally!
Whoosh! The already lengthy scythe, swung in motion, traced a semicircle that enveloped all three!
Seeing this, the two squad leaders swiftly dodged in opposite directions—one up, one down—narrowly avoiding the strike. However, the squad leader they had just rescued wasn’t so lucky. He didn’t even have time to turn around before the scythe swept by, cutting him in half at the waist!
One squad leader, fallen!
Having killed one squad leader, Rocky had no time to celebrate. He immediately turned and dove towards the other, quickly ramping up the Armor’s speed to the extreme, transforming into a streak of light in mid-air and charging at his opponent.
In mere seconds, he was upon the second squad leader, but before he could wield the scythe, his foe had already thrust out the spear in hand!
As previously mentioned, this squad leader wielded a rarely seen weapon—it could be referred to as a Magic Energy Spear or Spear, but besides the small solid section held in hand, the rest was materialized from mana. What’s more, this weapon was over two meters long, its reach even surpassing that of the Magic Fang Scythe by a good length.
Therefore, as Rocky rapidly closed in, the squad leader didn’t wait for the scythe to swing and instead thrust his spear out first!
The adage goes, “a longer reach makes a weapon stronger,” and facing the suddenly thrust spear, Rocky quickly dodged, spiraling through the air. However, the squad leader he now faced was no ordinary warrior; this rare weapon denoted extraordinary ability, and a few successive thrusts soon put pressure on Rocky.
“This won’t do…”
In the span of barely a second or two, Rocky realized that continuing like this was no solution. With the long spear in play, even though he was slightly faster than the squad leader in front, he couldn’t get close enough, and at the same time, the other squad leader had already started to turn and come his way. If he didn’t resolve this fight quickly, wouldn’t it become two against one once the other squad leader arrived?
With this in mind, he activated all the runes of the latest version of the White Demon Armor!
In an instant, the Armor’s mana surged from its original peak value of 10,000 points directly to 15,000 points!
With the latest upgrades, besides new technology and weapons, the White Demon Armor’s magic energy value also saw a substantial enhancement, increasing by as much as fifty percent.
For Orton and his kind, enhancing mana was the easiest part, because once runes were inscribed on the Armor, they would take effect, and the higher the level of the runes, the more mana they provided. So, while mana might be a bottleneck for regular Armor, this limitation didn’t exist for the White Demon Armor.
