Sett’s suction was too strong, he was like a super-efficient vacuum cleaner and normal players weren’t able to defend against his spiraling attack. Even when Lin Wan Er had the silver dragon to aid, but she was just a small assassin. She added Agility and not strength so once she was locked onto, she definitely wouldn’t be able to escape.
…
“Kong!”
The giant beast swallowed a bunch of Nine Heavens City before raising his head. He was still staring at Lin Wan Er and the silver dragon. Lin Wan Er jumped onto the dragon’s back and rushed, “Little White let’s go quickly!”
But it was too late. The giant beast opened his mouth towards Lin Wan Er and instantly a gust was formed.
“Hua!”
Butterfly sliced past wind waves and I flew from the right. I gathered my sword and tossed it right at the face of the beast. That caused sparks to fly. Its shell was just too hard so that strike didn’t deal much damage. Instead, it disrupted its attack tempo. At that point, Lin Wan Er and the silver dragon managed to fly away.
As it roared, Sett raised his head to search for me. His face was filled with viciousness like he wanted to kill me. But after taking the loss previously, I learned my lesson. I didn’t fly as I wouldn’t be able to escape his attacks. I stepped towards his ear. I had to find his blindspot if not he will continue to get close to Dragonslayer Fortress.
On the ground, Demon Mountain stabbed at the foot of the beast. He looked at me who was at his neck, “Xiao Yao it is no use, he has many eyes, you can’t find a blind spot!”
Suddenly, a few holes on his face opened. As expected, they were eyes. They looked t me. At least this part of his face didn’t have any blind spots!
“Hua!”
Energy currents spread from behind me. I didn’t even need to turn and knew that Sett was using his claws to attack me. I activated Seven Stars Teleportation to complete a close-ranged jump. The beast smacked his own face but that strike actually caused flame waves that still dealt 70 thousand damage. His attack really was terrifying!
“Pa pa pa”, my overlord boots stepped on his spine and dashed forwards. I used Icy Wings to keep balance. But every ten meters, an eye would open on his back. Was his whole body covered in eyes, did it have no weak spot at all?
He continued to holler. While Sett observed me, he swept the players on the ground. The appearance of this beast led to huge losses for Nine Heavens City and the Western Alliance. Especially that suction effect which wiped out a bunch of troops and horses. This made me more certain that the Hybrid Demon Lords were different from before. In the past, we could kill them with numbers. Now even if there were many of us, if we didn’t have a good strategy it would be useless.
Yin Huo could kill people to gain health back. Sif had the war protection while Sett could kill huge bunches of people. Sending an ocean of people would just be us giving them experience.
…
I stepped on Sett’s spine and ran upwards. When I was up the back of his head, I noticed that there were three horns at the top and there weren’t any eyes there. Finally, I had found its blind spot!
I dashed behind his horn and when I stepped on it, the giant beast became really uneasy. It swung his head and I was nearly about to fall off. I quickly kept Gan Jiang.
I used my hand to grab one of his horns and then smashed Butterfly below me!
“Peng!”
The skull was really firm but Butterfly was sharp. One sword just left a small mark and it was less than a centimeter deep.
Forget it, continue to dig. When I managed to open its head, this Sett wouldn’t be able to attack Dragonslayer Fortress.
I sent my sword in and dealt dozens of slashes.
My attacks sent Sett mad. He opened his mouth but this time it wasn’t to suck, he spat out flames to sweep the area around. All of a sudden, Sky Rose, Seven Feather, Demon Mountain etc were unlucky. A large group of German and American players was instantly killed. No one expected Sett to do that.
It seemed like my attacks were effective. I couldn’t stop, continue to slash!
“Right, this is it, continue!”
In the distance, Demon Mountain was down to 3% health. He rode his horse back to retreat while also shouting, “Xiao Yao don’t hold back, pierce through this bastard’s head!”
All of a sudden it felt like we were allies. In front of absolute strength, even Demon Mountain had to yield. If he didn’t, all his guild members would get wiped out by Sett.
…
My sword landed time after time and finally, a meter deep hole was dug in the outer shell. My attacks made the giant beast really frustrated. It stopped at the spot and roared time after time while spitting out flames. He didn’t even know who was attacking him as his eyes couldn’t see. I was in his blind spot so he could only send his anger at the other players.
While I was attacking, I saw many players flying in the sky. Most of them were from Nine Heavens City and Iron Skull City. Some of them were riding hawks, some rode griffins and some rode white birds. However, there weren’t any giant dragons. Li Mu, Wang Jian, Lin Wan Er retreated back to the wall. They understood that Zhan Long didn’t need to come out to fight, what we needed to do was to defend the walls.
But I remained in the blind spot. My attacks stopped the Hybrid Demon army’s footsteps. Sett was their secret weapon and if he didn’t move, those hybrid demons were just cannon fodder.
Suddenly, a Nine Heavens City War Hawk Knight shouted, “Xiao Yao Zi Zai be careful, someone is coming!”
“Someone?”
I exclaimed but suddenly a strong power spread from behind my head. I turned around and placed my swords ahead of myself to defend. No matter who came, this power totally suppressed me!
I turned around and I saw a beautiful face. It was Sif. Somehow she had stepped onto Sett’s head. Her sword was covered in golden destruction power and she slashed it at me!
“Keng!”
Golden light scattered and I actually managed to block it. However, it didn’t feel good and my arms felt numb. My body was also sent dozens of meters away and I was in front of Sett’s eyes. He opened his mouth and wanted to swallow me but fortunately, my reaction was quick. I used Seven Star Teleportation to jump to his right blind spot.
“You are asking for death!”
Sif raised her sword and used another explosive strike. This time she swept a sword storm which dealt 300 thousand damage while also placing a burn effect on me. No, if I died here it would be a huge loss!
Sif was too close to me such that her war armor was about to cover me. My body sunk into the armor and that was something I didn’t expect. I used Butterfly to block her wrist while sinking down and kicking her!
“Peng!”
I kicked her thigh and this caused her to scream in shock. This Hybrid Demon Territory goddess turned around to sweep me with another sword energy attack. My Wall of Douqi scattered and this was it. Without Wall of Douqi, one hit will deal 400 thousand damage. No one could save me then.
I didn’t hesitate and flew backward using Sif’s attack. I slid from Sett’s spine to his tail before leaving. Sif mocked, “Frost’s student is just like that, what The Executor, can’t even take one hit!”
Sif mocked me. I had to calm down. If I turned back I would definitely die. With both Sett and Sif attacking, no player would be able to survive.
…
I flew back to Dragonslayer Fortress and when I landed, Yue Qing Qian was worried, “Brother Xiao Yao, we thought that you would die on the beast’s body!”
I smiled and shook my head, “Why will I, I am so smart.”
Lin Wan Er looked at Sett’s giant body and said, “His body is huge… Who knows if we will be able to block it. Such a waste, you found his blindspot but it was useless.”
I waved, “No choice. Sif protected Sett so I couldn’t do anything.”
Li Mu sliced a few Hybrid Demons down while saying, “At least we delayed them. What should we do next?”
I sucked in a deep breath and looked at the row of bright Dragon Crystal Cannons, “Let’s see if the cannons can stop him.”
I ordered, “All Tian Ling City soldiers, once Sett enters rang, aim his head and fire!”
“Yes sir!” These NPC troops belonged to Tian Ling City so naturally, they would listen to me. I was the general so I was more powerful than Shao Shiyang and Baili Ning. Of course, this was just on the surface. Sometimes their direct commanders might be even more persuasive.
…
The ground shook and Sett started to move towards Dragonslayer Fortress once more. Its body was like a mountain and the NPCs on Dragonslayer Fortress had ashen white looks on their faces. Many people lost their courage to fight. They looked at this giant being in terror. But as a soldier and with a soldier’s duty, they didn’t leave. But once Sett fought up close, it wouldn’t be long before they fell apart.
