Chapter 130: Chapter130-Instant Kill

The commander didn’t even understand what was happening.

Sien had already grabbed him by the shoulder.

Then flung him forward!

"Block it for me!"

The heavily armored commander flew through the air.

His massive shield met the incoming Void Spears head-on!

The corner of Sien’s mouth had only just begun to rise—

when his expression froze.

All sixteen Void Spears changed direction at the same time!

The first row of spears curved around the heavy-armored commander.

The projectiles behind them followed along different arcs.

Every spear tip remained firmly locked onto Sien.

[Sun Chaser!]

As long as the target remained within the skill’s effective range,

the projectiles would not dissipate.

Not until they hit!

"Damn it!"

Sien’s expression changed drastically.

They could curve?!

He activated Shadow Step again and again.

His figure flashed rapidly through the military formation.

But the black-and-gold spears behind him kept adjusting their trajectories as well.

A Darkkin happened to step into their path.

The Void Spears simply curved around him.

Another heavily armored soldier charged forward with his shield raised.

Still useless.

Sixteen black-and-gold streaks had completely locked onto Sien!

There was no escaping them!

Sien gritted his teeth.

Then suddenly spun around.

His twin short blades crossed in front of him.

BOOM—!!!

The first spear struck!

[-1,038,471!]

Sien was hit like a cannonball.

His entire body was blasted backward.

Before he could even hit the ground—

the second spear caught up!

[-1,092,764!]

Boom!

His HP instantly bottomed out!

[Deathshadow Protection activated!]

[Current HP forcibly locked at: 1!]

[Target has entered Absolute Immunity!]

The remaining spears struck one after another.

[Immune!]

[Immune!]

[Immune!]

Terrifying explosions completely swallowed the surrounding area.

Only after the smoke and dust cleared—

did Sien reappear, half-kneeling on the shattered ground.

He was completely stunned.

Two hits.

Only two had landed!

More than two million HP had vanished instantly!

If he hadn’t had [Deathshadow Protection]...

he would already be dead.

In the distance,

Rogg’s expression froze as well.

A moment ago, he had still thought his failed ambush was simply bad luck.

But now, staring at Sien’s HP—

which had been reduced to a single point—

a chill instantly ran up his spine.

"What kind of damage is that..."

At that moment—

the shadow beside Sien shifted slightly.

Cassius finally appeared.

He grabbed Sien by the shoulder

and quickly dragged him out of John’s frontal attack range.

"Don’t go in again."

Sien still hadn’t recovered from those two spears.

"He has invincibility."

"All my attacks were negated!"

"No."

Cassius’s expression was unusually grave.

"I saw it clearly."

As he spoke,

he raised a hand and pointed north.

Sien and Rogg both followed his finger.

In the distance—

a massive icy-blue turtle was standing with its tail tucked in, looking left and right with a wary expression.

Cassius slowly said,

"When Rogg attacked Endbringer the first time..."

"That turtle took damage."

"And after you slashed him three times in a row, it suffered three heavy hits in succession as well."

Sien froze.

Rogg immediately realized it too.

Cassius stared at Ice Rose.

"There’s some kind of special life link between Endbringer and that pet."

"The damage we deal to him..."

"Is being transferred to it."

Sien’s eyes lit up instantly.

"So that’s it!"

No wonder!

His True Damage.

His shield penetration.

Everything had landed normally.

And yet Endbringer himself hadn’t taken any damage.

The problem had never been the type of attack.

That turtle was taking the damage for him!

Rogg’s expression eased considerably as well.

At least this proved that his first strike hadn’t actually failed.

Cassius continued,

"If we want to kill Endbringer..."

"We deal with that turtle first."

The three of them looked toward Ice Rose again.

Four hundred thousand HP.

Over ten thousand in both defenses.

Damage reflection.

Slows.

And who knew how many other skills it still had hidden.

It was definitely troublesome.

But no matter how troublesome it was—

it was still better than eating those black-and-gold spears head-on.

Sien glanced at his remaining sliver of HP with lingering fear.

That last barrage had nearly scared the soul out of him.

Cassius made the decision immediately.

"Retreat first."

"Create distance."

"We’ll deal with the pet, then look for another opportunity."

Rogg nodded.

"Fine."

Sien didn’t hesitate either.

"Let’s go."

All three of them were assassins.

If they truly wanted to retreat,

ordinary players had no chance of keeping them there.

But just as they prepared to split up—

John was still staring at Sien’s status panel in the distance.

His eyes grew brighter and brighter.

Citybreaker Tier BOSSes.

Three of them.

Prey of this level...

Wasn’t this exactly the kind of opportunity he had removed [Reality Merge] for?

John immediately opened his affix panel.

[Reassign Divine Affix "Reality Merge" to the Void Staff?]

"Yes."

Buzz!

Golden light entered the staff.

[Divine Affix "Reality Merge" has been equipped!]

Then—

John glanced at the party list.

Horus.

White_Bear.

The other Luna Wolf members.

Sorry.

They could have the Thousand-Player Tier BOSSes.

But these three Citybreaker Tier BOSSes...

He was keeping them for himself.

[Leave the current party?]

"Leave."

[You have left the party!]

On the city wall,

Horus suddenly saw the system notification.

He froze.

"Why did Boss leave the party?"

White_Bear looked equally confused.

"Did we do something wrong?"

Horus was just about to message John—

when a shout suddenly came from deep within the battlefield.

"Rogg!"

"Retreat!"

John heard the voice.

His brows furrowed.

Trying to run?

His gaze locked on.

The three rapidly retreating figures had already been completely marked by Leviathan’s [True Sight].

John raised the Void Staff.

"Too late."

Buzz—!!!

Sixteen Void Spears condensed once again.

Black-and-gold light illuminated a huge section of the battlefield.

Cassius’s expression changed drastically.

"Split up!"

All three assassins shot off in different directions at the same time!

Full speed!

Afterimages flickered continuously between the Darkkin formations.

But they soon realized—

the sixteen Void Spears behind them had split up as well.

Black-and-gold trajectories streaked across the sky.

Each group locked onto its own target.

Continuously adjusting course.

The farther the assassins ran—

the more terrifying the speed of the spears seemed!

"Damn it!"

"We can’t shake them!"

Rogg spammed Shadow Step desperately.

The moment he vanished from his original position—

several Void Spears sharply curved in midair.

And chased after him again!

[Extreme-Range Enhancement!]

[Unbound Projectiles ×2!]

[Sun Chaser!]

Run?

As long as they were still within John’s effective range—

speed wasn’t going to solve anything.

The next instant—

the Void Spears caught up with all three!

BOOM!!!

[-1,883,746!]

[-1,448,261!]

[-1,554,937!]

...

Million-level damage erupted instantly!

Void power pierced straight through Rogg’s body.

He didn’t even have time to scream.

His entire body exploded apart!

Cassius dodged two spears in succession.

The third pierced through his chest from the side.

The spears following behind instantly emptied the rest of his HP!

As for Sien—

his [Deathshadow Protection] had already been triggered once.

Now, facing the pursuing Void Spears again,

he had lost his final lifesaving trump card.

BOOM—!!!

The three figures were swallowed by black-and-gold energy almost one after another!

The next second—

multiple pillars of light shot into the sky!

Gold!

Dark crimson!

Purple!

All kinds of equipment and items scattered across the ground.

At the same moment—

system notifications began flooding John’s vision!
