Thunderous Might! Lightning Storm!
Deadly Shadow Strike! Chain Backstab!
Thunder Mage Lin Tian and Rogue Ouyang Ling’er unleashed a barrage of S-rank skills, dealing seven to eight thousand points of damage per hit, causing the Nether Guardian’s health bar to plummet rapidly!
As a Level 42 Lord monster, especially with the Nether King’s [Lord Aura] skill, the Nether Guardian was incredibly powerful. However, its total health of over 200,000 couldn’t withstand the relentless assault from Lin Tian and his team!
The Nether Guardian roared in fury, brandishing its massive blade as it charged towards Lin Tian, the highest damage dealer. But Wu Haotian intercepted it midway.
Clang!
Wu Haotian blocked the heavy slash from the Nether Guardian with his shield.
The Nether Guardian, consumed by rage, launched a flurry of quick slashes at Wu Haotian, forcing him to retreat under the immense power of the strikes!
Sparks flew as the blade clashed against the shield.
The ferocity of the attack left the surrounding solo Professionals in awe. If it had been them, they would have long been dead under the Nether Guardian’s blade.
Yet Wu Haotian, enduring the Nether Guardian’s onslaught, only lost a third of his health!
At this moment, Ning Tiantian, standing at the rear, waved her staff. An S-rank Holy Light Healing and a Grand Healing spell landed on Wu Haotian, instantly restoring his health to full with two 7000+ healing numbers.
The S-rank rare skill [This Milk is Highly Toxic] triggered, converting 50% of the healing into damage against the enemy.
While healing Wu Haotian, Ning Tiantian’s skill also dealt two 3000+ damage hits to the Nether Guardian!
The onlookers couldn’t help but exclaim:
“No wonder they’re under [Zero], the top player in Zhening! Even their Priest, and a girl at that, deals more damage than us!”
“If Zero were here, wouldn’t he just one-shot this Nether Guardian?”
“I really want to join the Temple of Destiny, even if they don’t pay me!”
On the battlefield.
Wu Haotian tanked the damage, Lin Tian and Ouyang Ling’er dealt the damage, and Ning Tiantian handled the healing.
With their coordinated efforts, the Nether Guardian was soon on the brink of death.
Just as Lin Tian was about to cast a spell to finish off the Nether Guardian.
Suddenly.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
Several arrows rained down from the sky, striking the Nether Guardian.
-!
-!
-!
With damage numbers in the five digits, the arrows killed the Nether Guardian before Lin Tian could.
The onlookers were stunned by the high damage.
“Such high damage! Even higher than the Temple of Destiny members!”
When Lin Tian and his team turned to look, they saw dozens of middle-aged Professionals, at least in their thirties, approaching with weapons in hand.
Judging by their age, they were clearly not new Professionals but veterans who had been in the Sixth World for over a decade!
All of them were Level 45, the highest level in the Sixth World.
The ones who had just killed the Nether Guardian were a few Archers among them!
Their IDs were varied and unorganized, looking like a group of solo players.
The only common trait was their sturdy builds and fierce expressions, indicating they were not easy to deal with.
Facing this group of monster stealers, even knowing they were veteran Professionals, Wu Haotian didn’t show any courtesy. Pointing his flaming spear at the group of burly men, he shouted, “Don’t you know the rules of first come, first served? How dare you steal the Temple of Destiny’s prey?”
As soon as he finished speaking, the leader of the group, a burly middle-aged Warrior in black heavy armor named [Overlord], sneered at Wu Haotian and said, “Do I need your permission to kill a monster? Who do you think you are?”
“Are all veteran Professionals this hot-tempered?” Wu Haotian couldn’t help but laugh.
Lin Tian, the former Guild Leader of the God of War Guild and a cautious thinker, advised Wu Haotian, “Ignore them.”
Wu Haotian took the advice, “A wise man doesn’t argue with fools. I won’t stoop to your level.”
Just as he turned to pick up the loot from the Nether Guardian, he sensed a cold wind behind him!
Wu Haotian quickly raised his shield, just in time to block several magic balls!
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Even with all his defensive skills activated, the rare-grade Flame Knight Wu Haotian, clad in a 4-star full gold Dark Set, still took several hits of over 5000 damage each, losing half his health instantly!
At the same time, several Mages among the burly men, their staffs glowing with energy, were clearly the ones who had attacked Wu Haotian!
At this moment, Wu Haotian could no longer hold back, “This is too much!”
“Wu Haotian, don’t be rash!” Lin Tian tried to stop him.
Ignoring Lin Tian’s warning, Wu Haotian, bolstered by Ning Tiantian’s efficient healing, charged fearlessly at the burly men with his flaming spear!
Meanwhile, the leader, Overlord, smirked and ordered, “Get him!”
Around him, a dozen Warriors and Knights launched their attacks on Wu Haotian!
Seeing Wu Haotian charge forward, Lin Tian and Ouyang Ling’er had no choice but to join the fight.
Although the opponents were numerous and higher level.
Lin Tian’s team, with their full Dark Sets and all S-rank skills, believed they were not inferior to these veteran Professionals!
However, they underestimated their opponents.
The veteran Professionals not only had higher levels and S-rank skills, but their equipment was even better than Lin Tian’s team!
Their damage was extraordinarily high, and their defense was incredibly strong!
Lin Tian’s S-rank high burst skills couldn’t even one-shot an Assassin!
Meanwhile, the enemy Mages and Archers focused their attacks, and Ning Tiantian’s healing couldn’t keep up with Wu Haotian’s health consumption, leaving him critically injured in an instant!
Ouyang Ling’er, who had been sneaking around, was detected by the enemy Archers’ [Detect] skill and killed in a focused attack!
Whoosh!
A flash of white light signaled Ouyang Ling’er’s death.
The surrounding solo Professionals were shocked.
“Damn! How are these veteran Professionals so strong? I’ve seen other Level 45 veterans in the Sixth World, but they weren’t this powerful!”
“Look closely, they’ve hidden their equipment effects. Judging by the damage, these people must be wearing full 5-star gold gear!”
“At Level 45, 5-star gear isn’t easy to come by for most people. These guys must have some serious backing!”
“But daring to kill members of the Temple of Destiny, they must have some serious guts!”
“First there was the Zhening Province Guild Infinity, then the Radiant family from Tianjing, both top-tier families were suppressed by Zero! And now these solo players dare to act recklessly here! Looks like there’s going to be a good show!”
On the battlefield.
With Ouyang Ling’er down.
Lin Tian, under the enemy Mages’ firepower, couldn’t even find a chance to cast a counterattack spell and had to rely on extreme positioning to dodge their attacks.
The enemy Mages and Archers relentlessly pursued him, each attack seemingly aimed to kill Lin Tian!
Whoosh!
Using an S-rank Teleportation to narrowly avoid a focused attack from the enemy Mages, Lin Tian saw Ning Tiantian being instantly killed by several enemy Assassins.
At this moment, Lin Tian suddenly realized something, frowning, “Their target isn’t the BOSS.”
“They’re here for us!”
