Chapter 517: Homme Fatale’s Fleeting Worry
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Above the Buried City, two speeding Winged Champions were detected in the air by Pretty Woman’s Elemental Perception. At the same time, many players had finally determined the identities of the two players in the sky.
The Winged Summoner landed on a rooftop and turned to everyone, revealing his clan crest—it was the shape of a robust fist.
That was the crest of Violent Army Clan.
And the summoner was indeed the clan leader of Violent Army Clan—Dinosaurcerer!
When he landed on the roof, all he did was raise his head toward the sky and leer at the two silhouettes that were gliding in the air above, ignoring Pretty Woman near him.
The one that he was pursuing was the clan leader of The Order of the Eight Gods—Eight Gods himself.
As for the other Elementalist that flew up to the sky earlier, Dinosaurcerer did not recognize him. However, he did see the hostility in the Elementalist’s eyes. Thus, he immediately executed a forced landing to avoid having to take on the two of them. Dinosaurcerer was no idiot—no matter how confident he was, he knew that taking on two Winged Champions at the same time was an impossible feat for him.
He decided to land on the ground and then charge up a Tier 5 magic attack in his palms, ready to strike at any moment.
However… ( AllNovel )
Eight Gods was a powerful foe who had crossed path with him for quite some time now. As he saw Dinosaurcerer’s charging stance, he immediately forfeited diving toward the pesky Summoner and stopped the Elementalist who came to his rescue—Raziel.
Raziel, the ex-clan leader of Holy Clan. He was now a part of Netherspirit’s Claw again, hoping to aid Netherclaw to rebuild his league to its former glory.
“Eight Gods, to allow a Summoner to chase after you like that… you must be tired. Just stay back and rest.” As Raziel was stopped from pursuing Dinosaurcerer on the ground, he hovered next to Eight Gods and coldly jeered. Then, he glided toward Dinosaurcerer again.
Eight Gods was just a middle-rank clan’s leader before the fall of Moonrise City. In Raziel’s eyes, he was not any stronger than Dinosaurcerer—an unknown newbie.
Even though Netherclaw did ask him to assist Eight Gods, Raziel never really think much of both Eight Gods and Dinosaurcerer. Therefore, it was natural that he did not heed Eight Gods’ words.
“Beware of his magic…”
On the other hand, it was a bad day for Eight Gods. His party had lost so many battles against the Violent Army Clan in the past few days and as he gave up and wanted to search for a quest to complete in the Buried City, Dinosaurcerer, unexpectedly, started a pursuit after him. Along the way, he did contact Snowmelt for help but only Raziel showed up to rescue him. Yet, Raziel was a veteran who heeded no one—Eight Gods could do nothing but watch Raziel dive toward Dinosaurcerer.
It was a common knowledge that Summoners were not stronger than Elementalists. However, it was quite a different story when they advanced to Tier 5…
It was apparent that Raziel did not have experience butting heads with Tier 5 Summoners. As he dove, a huge wave of Mana suddenly swept up to the sky and in a blink of an eye, his Angelic Wings vanished into thin air and his body started to fall from the sky!
However, although Raziel did not think highly of Eight Gods and Dinosarucerer, he was still an experienced Tier 5 player and had a few more tricks up his sleeves than the average Tier 5 players, especially combats in the air.
After the battle of Moonrise City, Raziel had done extensive research on air combat by fighting the Liches. Therefore, he had plenty of similar experiences where he was shot down from the sky.
After taking in the damage of the Tier 5 AoE Magic Attack, Raziel immediately prepared his next move.
***
After seeing Dinosaurcerer hurling out Tier 5 AoE Magic Attack, the members of the Ascendant Saber Clan started to slowly retreating away from the area. Thus, no one from their clan was inflicted by the magic.
Instead of worrying about being inflicted by the magic, they stared at the silhouette that was falling from the sky—they were more interested in the clash amongst the Tier 5 Winged Champions.
As they saw Raziel falling closer and closer to the ground…
Suddenly!
Growwwl!
A loud growl of an eagle was heard as a massive silver eagle emerged in the sky and grabbed the falling Raziel.
“Child’s play.”
Raziel skilfully summoned his pet “Silver Lightning” and scoffed at the petty move his opponent pulled on him. Then, he continued on downward.
Eight Gods was impressed: this man whom Snowmelt sent to help him was no weakling. Having shredded his doubts, he also tagged along and follow suit—with Raziel’s help in nullifying Dinosaurerer’s AoE attacks, he would then have little to worry about. Taking out Dinosaurcerer was just a matter of time.
“Oh, you’re getting more help?”
Dinosaurcerer’s pulled a long face but did not scramble away in panic. He coldly leered at his enemies rushing toward him and then spread his wings to glide toward the other streets while charging up more of his magic attacks.
“Lie down, you worm!”
Raziel was waiting for this opportunity from the beginning. As Dinosaurcerer glided away from the roof, a splinter of violet lightning struck down from the sky and landed on his body. Then the electric element spread across a hundred radius meters in the area, zapping the surroundings with statics and electricity.
However, Dinosaurcerer did not panic after he lost his Angelic Wings to the lightning—to much of Raziel’s surprise. Right after the glowing white Angelic Wings were forced to deactivate itself, a pair of charred black bat wings spread from his back. As Dinosaurcerer flapped his bat wings like a huge bat, he swiftly glided toward the other streets.
“Flying monsters?”
The clash of two Winged Champions had sent two waves of AoE attacks spreading across the area. Everyone was cowering behind their covers as the pressure took hold.
It was like a clash of the Titans! If one side ever got careless, it would be their downfall.
However, it was quite obvious who had the advantage at the moment.
“When two Elementalists show up, Dinosaurcerer must retreat. He can’t take on both of them!”
“But, the wings of the flying pets will not be affected by Tier 5 AoE magic attacks. So, with his current flying speed, the two Elementalists can’t do anything to him.”
As Pretty Woman was silently coming up with a conclusion for their battle, Xin Yu’s voice suddenly rang in her ears, pulling her back from her deep thoughts, “Sis Pretty Woman! Sis Pretty Woman!”
“How do they fly in the sky?”
It was Xin Yu’s first time seeing Winged Champions. She could not help but stare at the silhouettes in the air in awe. To her, these were all so new and exciting.
“Ah, the wings… well, when you’ve advanced to Tier 5 you could fuse with a Divinity Crystal. Then, you’ll get a pair of white glowing wings.”
“What’s a Divinity Crystal?” Xin Yu excitedly inquired more.
She was, after all, still new to the game—at the moment, she was still in the process of getting familiar with her class. Thus, she knew very little about anything else in the game. Pretty Woman, on the other hand, had yearned to get her own Divinity for a long time but the Ascendant Saber Clan was not strong enough to take out a Lich. So, there had been little talks about the Divinity among themselves.
After hearing Xin Yu’s inquiry about the Divinity, Pretty Woman shook her head in amusement.
“Fine, we’ll tell you all about it later.”
After giving Xin Yu a brief response, Pretty Woman’s attention was back on Dinosaurcerer again. The scuffle between The Order of Eight Gods and Violent Army Clan was not over yet.
And it was not an everyday thing that they got to witness fights among Winged Champions…
***
“I didn’t think that that’s the ex-clan leader of Holy Clan! Hahahahaha… Eight Gods, you surely are going places. Even one of the clan leaders of the ex Netherspirit’s Claw league has now turned into your babysitter.”
Dinosaurcerer let out a scoff after recognizing who the eager-riding Electromancer was—the clan emblem, the Holy Brand and his Divinity. All of these clues traced back to the Raziel’s identity.
“I’ll just let you run your mouth for now. Let’s see how you escape from my wrath.” Raziel was not affected by his taunts. He coldly stood on his silver eagle and quietly charged up his Mana so he could hurl it at the Summoner. After a Summoner engaged in Beastform Fusion, the constant use of Mana was so expensive that it would not take long before he had to disengage the form.
“Escape?”
Dinosaurcerer suddenly stopped and landed on a rooftop. Then, a huge Deathfiend Spider appeared next to him. In an instant, a lurking smelly smoke gushed out of the cursed spider as a simple black hexagram appeared at the spot where Dinosaurcerer stood.
A surge of Mana then poured into the hexagram then a powerful glaring black light shot into the sky.
This eerie sight stopped Raziel and Eight Gods from moving further.
“Poison!”
“Fuck. That’s a warp portal. He’s sending in his reinforcements.”
The two of them cursed at their luck at the same time…
Yet, it was too late as Dinosaurcerer’s cavalry was sent to his side after a series of blinding black light pillars emerged around him.
As he first landed his sight on Dinosaurcerer’s reinforcements, Raziel’s confident smile vanished completely!
***
On top of another roof from afar, Pretty Woman was watching the show with amazement.
Dinosaurcerer activated a warp portal and sent in a rave party of Winged Champions.
One by one Champions majestically appeared next to Dinosaurcerer. All nine of them, flapping all nine pairs of Angelic Wings.
This was a terrifying formidable line up.
Nine Winged Champions. There were Brother Da, Sharp Blade, and Silent Ape among them. To add to that, there was also the worst God of Calamity of Violent Army Clan—the cool Homme Fatale. And there were also five more members from Bauhinia Clan and Fallen Angels.
Burning Rose, Little Apple, Little Arrow, Violetmoon Devilite, and Gold Digger Babe.
Four men and five ladies, flapping their Angelic Wings, stood in a line in front of Raziel and Eight Gods.
This was too much of an overkill!
“Holy Clan Leader! Order of Eight Gods Leader!” Gold Digger Babe let out a fake surprised shriek, “Ooh lala… Brother Qin and Sis Xiaoxiao sternly told us to not cause trouble. So, Dino… you’re on your own.”
As she finished her words, Raziel and Eight Gods turned away immediately.
For God’s sake!
Even if Bauhinia Clan and Fallen Angels stayed out of their business, there were still five more Winged Champions on his side. This was a line up to blast them to oblivion five times over.
Dinosaurcerer and his gang did not give chase.
“Holy Clan had now joined in the fight huh? It would seem that Demon Faction’s official information on the official website was hoping Netherclaw would put his claws on us.”
As Homme Fatale stared at Raziel’s fleeing silhouette, a fleeting worry was felt in his words.
