Chapter 426 - 416 Reversal of War Situation
At this moment, the thirty million spectators in the arena began discussing among themselves. Now that the Unbeatable Team was down to just ten or twenty players, and even the team leader Unbeaten had died, even a fool could predict the outcome of this match.
In the current situation, the Heroes’ Guild had an unshakeable advantage simply in terms of numbers. Unless the Unbeatable Team had some heaven-defying method, there was no way to reverse the outcome.
The Void Battlefield disappeared, and Huang Yi landed on the ground, gazing distantly at the remaining ten or twenty struggling members of the Unbeatable Team.
At that time, although those members were facing immense pressure, they had not been killed and were still fighting tenaciously. This indicated that their special priest player had not died and was still providing them with incredibly strong healing! Whenever they lost health, no matter how short the interval, it would be immediately restored. To kill them, one would need to instakill.
Huang Yi’s sharp gaze meticulously swept over the group of players, trying to pick out the priest. But there were six or seven priests there, all dressed in the same white robes, indistinguishable from the outside.
"All assassins, instakill them," Huang Yi commanded with a wave of his hand, shouting loudly to the whole team.
Upon hearing this command, the assassins of the Heroes’ Guild no longer cared about technique and all charged headlong at the last remaining ten or twenty people of the Unbeatable Team, preparing to end the battle.
"Instakill, you think you’ve already won?" Just then, Nonexistence, who was still fighting hard, cast a powerful spell, killing a Heroes’ Guild player, and shouted at Huang Yi from a distance.
Afterward, Nonexistence confidently smiled and said faintly, "Lapis Lazuli, use your trump card!"
As his words fell, from among the last remaining ten or twenty members of the Unbeatable Team, a player dressed in a black robe, like a mage, suddenly extended the magic wand in his hand and swung it over the battlefield!
In an instant, milky white light spots filled with the essence of life emerged from his wand, quickly scattering across the entire arena and landing on every corpse of the Unbeatable Team members!
The next moment, the corpses of the Unbeatable Team members suddenly began to move, looking like zombies, startling the entire audience.
Quickly, these bodies all got up again, returned to their lively state.
These people had all been resurrected with full health!
At this moment, both the entire Heroes’ Guild and the thirty million spectators at the venue were stunned!
The player in the black robe who had just acted was not a mage at all, but a priest—a Divine-tier Priest! His move was none other than the legendary Priest Divine Skill—Mass Resurrection—which could resurrect all teammates within range!
Before, the only known priest in the world who had this skill was the world’s number one priest, who was also last year’s Best Priest award winner—the Pharaoh. Mass Resurrection is his signature skill, with which the Pharaoh had far surpassed other priests.
But now, no one had expected that within the Unbeatable Team, there was also a player capable of Mass Resurrection. His contribution was equivalent to a whole team, giving the entire team a second life!
Such a team, let alone competing for the top 64, even had high hopes of making it into the final top 8!
This was the Unbeatable Seed Team! Keeping their cards close to the chest, they far surpassed any team Huang Yi and the rest had encountered before, and it would be hard to find a few teams like this in the whole world.
"Pfft! Pfft! Pfft!" Just then, the newly resurrected members of the Unbeatable Team immediately launched a fierce counterattack on the still stunned Heroes’ Guild! A barrage of skills poured out!
In an instant, the members of the Heroes’ Guild began falling one after another.
Now, the Unbeatable Team had far outnumbered the Heroes’ Guild, almost doubling their number!
Just within a moment, the tide of the battle had changed.
"Incredible! The Unbeatable Team is going to make a name for themselves in one battle. No one thought they had hidden so deep, even having the Pharaoh’s signature skill! They’re going to rise by stepping on the Heroes’ Guild this time. The impact is enough to shock the whole world; even God of Slaughter, giving it his all, can’t turn this around now! Just with Unbeaten and Nonexistence alone, they’re enough to deal with him!"
"Who would have thought that this fight for the top 128 would be so full of ups and downs? This match is completely at the standard of the top 64, and even surpasses that. With this loss, the Heroes’ Guild’s market value will definitely be greatly affected. I bet that after this defeat, the stock price of the Hero Guild will plunge by more than 5%!"
For a time, the thirty million spectators at the venue were all exclaiming in amazement. The Unbeatable Team’s move had completely overturned their understanding!
A moment ago, they were cheering for the Heroes’ Guild, but now, they felt pessimistic about the future of the Heroes’ Guild all at once!
"Instakill, now we can have a proper fight!" At this moment, Unbeaten’s voice rose calmly but pressingly, like the Death God’s death knell, carrying an incomparable oppressive force that echoed throughout the venue.
Unbeaten had been previously killed by Huang Yi with great effort, but now he had been resurrected!
Huang Yi took a deep breath, staring at Unbeaten from afar, and gripped his axe tighter in his hand.
At this point, they were completely at a disadvantage; the Heroes’ Guild had less than two hundred members left alive, while the opposing side was nearly at full strength. Moreover, with Unbeaten and Nonexistence being such hard nuts to crack, if both of them teamed up against Huang Yi, it was very likely they could kill him again.
"Sister, cast a Returning Light on yourself, and don’t resurrect immediately if you die later. Wait for my command before coming back," Huang Yi sent a message to Xiao Chunzi at that moment.
[Returning Light]was Xiao Chunzi’s Nefalem Skill, which required the use of Power of the Nefalem to cast and could not be used indiscriminately.
This skill allowed for a Resurrection in Place with no penalties upon death once within 10 days. A few months ago, when Huang Yi was fighting for that Sub-territory in Dragon City, Xiao Chunzi had used this skill on him.
However, since this was the tournament battlefield where there were no penalties for death to begin with, using the skill seemed somewhat wasteful.
But Xiao Chunzi always followed Huang Yi’s instructions without question. She immediately waved her hand, casting a green light full of Life essence upon herself.
No one noticed her actions as the entire venue was in chaos, and the audience’s attention was focused on Unbeaten and Huang Yi, the two super experts, without sparing any attention for what Xiao Chunzi was doing.
"Instakill, you’ve almost used up all your skills just now and they’re basically all cooling down. How are you going to fight me next?" Unbeaten said, while directing the members of Unbeatable Team to reapply their BUFFs.
"Then I won’t fight with you!" responded Huang Yi. Just now, when he and Unbeaten had fought in the Void Battlefield, Unbeaten’s desperate final efforts had posed a huge threat to him, drawing out many of his skills, which now required at least several dozen seconds or even a few minutes to cool down.
Unbeaten’s plan was precisely this: to draw out Huang Yi’s skills with his first Life, making the fight much easier upon his second Resurrection.
"If you don’t fight me, then I’ll massacre your team members here! None of them are a match for me," Unbeaten casually stated, thrusting his long sword at a nearby member of the Heroes’ Guild, instakilling them.
In this battlefield, Huang Yi and Unbeaten were on the same level, with Nonexistence and Qin Shiyu being the second tier, and everyone else far behind them. If Unbeaten really went after the remaining members of the Heroes’ Guild, it would be an easy slaughter.
"I declare judgment, Lapis Lazuli—you’re dead!" The next moment, Huang Yi initiated Judgment on that special priest within the Unbeatable Team!
"Boom!" The dark clouds over the battlefield gathered for the third time. Although the spectacle was just as grand, it no longer shocked onlookers. Huang Yi’s action seemed more like the struggles of a dying man.
"Crack!" A thick bolt of Lightning split into two, striking both Huang Yi and Lapis Lazuli and lifting them into the sky.
"Instakill! I never thought I’d receive personal attention from you. It’s quite an honor! But even if I die, our team can easily win this battle. You’re destined to lose!" Lapis Lazuli wasn’t flustered; he even leisurely started a conversation with Huang Yi.
"Pursuit!" Huang Yi rapidly launched his Charge Skill, his approach an angry rush.
Lapis Lazuli tried his best to dodge, but he was not an expert like Unbeaten. Facing Huang Yi’s overt Charge, he could not react effectively and was directly struck unconscious.
"Heavy Judgment!" Following that, Huang Yi brought down his axe with furious force, pouring his Attacks upon Lapis Lazuli!
"Pfft!" The next moment, the expected scene of blood and gore did not materialize. Lapis Lazuli did not die, but was instead blown away, maintaining a sliver of Health Points without dropping any further, seemingly having some means to save himself.
Huang Yi immediately pursued Lapis Lazuli, his axe swinging fiercely toward him.
"Pfft!" Huang Yi’s Ghost Axe struck Lapis Lazuli again, but he still did not die, maintaining that last sliver of Health Points.
"It’s very hard to kill me!" Lapis Lazuli said to Huang Yi with a slight Smile. He did not heal himself, facing Huang Yi with ease, maintaining that sliver of Health Points.
No matter how Huang Yi attacked, Lapis Lazuli always managed to keep that sliver of Health Points, as though he were an unkillable man.
This situation made Huang Yi vaguely remember one of the Knight’s signature skills—Knight’s Body, which allowed them to withstand thirty seconds at 1% Health Points, during which they could not be healed or killed.
