Chapter 13 Piercing the Heart (Bonus chapter for Alliance Master zh22)
So, in that instant, Mogansha roared and hurled his silver broken spear, transforming into a leaping bolt of lightning that pierced through the viper wolves in front of Fang Senyan and Reef. Flashing and leaping, these three viper wolves, already low on health, instantly exploded into pieces, scattering corpses across the ground.
At the same time, Reef activated his Guts ability, pouncing forward at an extremely high speed, bracing himself in front of that sniper-type Contractor, raising his shield to take the full force of the spotted ox's charge on his behalf!!
The wind howled...
The feeling of that collision was as if the entire Alps were collapsing!
The burly and robust Reef was sent flying like a small stone the moment he was hit!
With this impact, the Armor of Faith on his body, already dim, shattered completely. Fragments of silver armor flew out, instantly dissolving into nothingness, fortunate that it restored 100 health points to him as it broke.
"The actual damage is... 373 points of damage!" Fang Senyan easily calculated the damage of this attack.
And at this moment, he threw a bottle.
A bottle containing a curse potion.
At this time, the spotted ox, having hit someone, would inevitably pause. Fang Senyan seized this moment of hesitation and threw the bottle in his hand, smashing it on the creature's head! At this time, the spotted ox had broken free from its control-immune charging state.
An invisible ripple flashed, and the huge monster of a spotted ox felt a brief dizziness, unable to resist collapsing to the ground, shaking its head and groaning. Its charging momentum finally stopped with it, but not only that, a large cloud of pale green mist rapidly floated out, enveloping it, gnawing at its limbs like relentlessly invasive ants.
"Poison Cloud! Reduces the movement speed and attack speed of enemies within by 20%!"
It must be admitted that the power of such a large and strong creature like the spotted ox charging is quite astonishing, and its heavy weight adds extra lethality to this brutal behavior.
However, it must be noted that the terrifying weight also means that the spotted ox needs more time to accelerate in order to run and charge!
And the sustained nature of abilities like Poison Cloud will also affect its speed to some extent. If it previously took only five seconds to re-accelerate to maximum speed after hitting Reef at full speed, then now, after being stunned by Fang Senyan for one second and continuing to have its movement speed reduced, it will take a full fifteen seconds for the spotted ox to re-accelerate to maximum speed.
Reef, who was sent flying, crashed heavily to the ground after landing, continuing to slide for five or six meters with undiminished force, stirring up large clumps of turf and soil. Just as everyone was worried for him, Reef rolled over and half-knelt, standing up again, blood seeping from his hair, instantly covering his face, looking incredibly tragic!
Reef casually wiped the blood flowing into his eyes with the back of his hand, and then, without saying a word, without even uttering a sound, he simply gripped his sword hilt and strode towards the spotted ox!
He even had the air of a Spartan heading towards Thermopylae in the sunset!
As he approached that monster, Reef conveniently put on another Armor of Faith for himself. With ample boron to squander, there was no doubt that Reef's survivability had risen to another level, because the Armor of Faith was indeed an extremely abnormal ability.
Under normal circumstances, with only a hundred or so points of mental strength, Reef could only use this ability as a trump card or a grand finale, but now, with the support of three to four hundred points of mental strength, Reef could use it whenever he felt danger. The difference between the two was naturally immeasurable.
When he approached within twenty meters of the spotted ox, Reef let out a heart-wrenching roar, and a powerful and fierce shockwave spread in all directions, but even though the spotted ox's health was reduced somewhat, its movement speed only slowed for a moment before returning to its original speed!
This was the abnormal nature of a legendary creature's characteristic: Iron Will!
The spotted ox once again lowered its head and charged over, but the distance for it to accelerate was simply not enough, so its movement speed did not reach its maximum. Therefore, Reef immediately leaped forward, rolled on the ground once, and then immediately sprang up, continuing to stand ready. However, the huge spotted ox's charge was exerted with all its might, making it difficult to immediately retract its steps, and it only turned around after charging out a good few dozen meters.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, Fang Senyan threw an endless supply of vodka to Reef, who caught it and took two huge gulps. Fang Senyan gestured to Reef, whose health was already less than half, telling him to intercept the five or six escaping viper wolves in the distance. Although Reef didn't understand, he still abandoned the spotted ox as his target and did as he was told.
Fang Senyan himself charged straight towards a heavily injured Slinger that was retreating repeatedly, pulling out that white-grade shotgun and reaping it with a series of booms. It looked as if he had completely abandoned the spotted ox, ignoring it completely!
"If you want chaos... then let's all be chaotic together!" A trace of viciousness flashed in Fang Senyan's eyes.
At this time, the clumsy spotted ox looked around to the left and right, letting out a long, confused bellow, and then reignited its fierce, copper-bell-like eyes and began to search for a target. At this time, it no longer cared about anything, and began to charge headlong,
Instantly, the situation in the field became chaotic again, a complete mess! Even though the spotted ox had now lost the space to accelerate, the unlucky bastards who were hit by this guy's horns would often lose at least half of their health or more!
At this time, a group of people were cursing and yelling - where were the people at the front, Fang Senyan and Reef just pretended they were farting and didn't bother to pay attention to them.
Within a short three minutes, the situation on the entire West District battlefield seemed to be a complete disaster. By the time the spotted ox suddenly neighed and stomped heavily on the ground, at least three more Contractors had indirectly died under this guy's disturbance. Fortunately, Mogansha and the Contractor using the sniper rifle, under Reef's protection, could focus on combined shooting without distractions. By this point in the battle, although the Contractors were also wounded and exhausted, the remaining beasts were also almost covered in wounds.
As time passed, the viper wolves and Slingers were also slaughtered, leaving only the spotted ox still charging around the battlefield, extremely arrogant and disdainful, occasionally letting out muffled roars. Without those relatively small beasts weaving around it, the spotted ox's clumsiness became its greatest fatal weakness.
At this time, Reef's health had recovered to ninety percent with the help of bandages and medicine, so he leaped straight down and began to attract the attention of this big guy head-on. Fang Senyan also assisted from the side. The chaotic situation immediately became orderly again. Perhaps the previous few battles had been too smooth, so only now did these Contractors realize how hard-won that previous order had been, and that the key to all of this lay in the one who had been obviously ignored – him!
At this time, people listened to what Reef said, and everyone focused on attacking the spotted ox's left foreleg. It is worth mentioning that as the spotted ox's health gradually fell to the brink of danger, Fang Senyan and Reef began to cooperate tacitly, becoming thick-skinned. Whenever other melee Contractors wanted to get close, they would often intentionally or unintentionally not intercept or lure the spotted ox, wanting to borrow a knife to kill someone!
There was an agile specialist with dual blades from the Son of Kadar team who wanted to run over and pick up a bargain. Fang Senyan and Reef had roughly figured out the spotted ox's habits by this time, so they seized the opportunity, and when this guy attacked, they both simultaneously took a big step back. This agile Contractor's dual blades did succeed in piercing into the spotted ox's flesh, dealing terrifying damage speed, but what he didn't expect was that Fang Senyan and Reef not only didn't come over to help block, but shamelessly flashed aside and stood by!
Instantly, the spotted ox immediately attacked the guy closest to it, roaring and swinging its head to ram into that agile specialist. This unlucky guy hurriedly crossed his dual blades to parry, finally managing to block in time, but his health was at most two hundred or so points, and he immediately lost health from this collision, hurriedly using a life-saving ability and swallowing a potion, finally barely managing to pull his health back up.
However, at this time, the spotted ox had already raised its giant hoof high, and then stomped down!
Amid a booming sound, shockwaves erupted outwards. War Stomp instantly severely injured this guy, and the spotted ox stomped up to him again to top it off, and this guy immediately screamed, flying seven or eight meters away on the spot, his health reduced to zero, and he died. At this time, it looked as if the spotted ox had begun to turn its hateful gaze towards Mogansha in the distance, but Fang Senyan and Reef both appeared in its vision at the same time, and blocked this guy's path.
When facing this behemoth, Fang Senyan finally regained a little of the self-esteem that had been completely devastated by the Uruk-hai in the last world. Although the spotted ox's attacks were also quite impressive, with a theoretical attack power of at least 150-250 points, after a series of conversions, Fang Senyan's stamina had reached a terrifying 45 points, his defense power was 22.5+2=24.5, and his damage absorption rate was 49%! The 25 points of damage reduced by his talent ability had almost reached a quarter of the absorption of external damage! It was also a fairly impressive protective data!
