(2)

Although it was only Tier 3 with 3 stars, its self-destruct power was enough to threaten enemies of Tier 4.

Two hundred self-detonating water spiders rushed forward, killing seven or eight thousand skeleton monsters, with a casualty ratio as high as 1:40. Among them, three thousand were elite skeleton monsters under Solin’s command.

Solin was initially surprised but immediately commanded the Skeleton Wyverns circling in the air to take out the remaining two hundred self-detonating water spiders.

Under the Necromantic Breath, the self-detonating water spiders didn’t even have a chance to self-destruct and were melted into a puddle of blood.

Seeing this, a hint of regret flashed in Ji Chen’s eyes.

If these remaining two hundred self-detonating water spiders could successfully self-destruct, they could have taken out at least thousands of elite skeleton monsters.

Seeing the skeleton wyverns take off again without attacking other troops, Ji Chen understood what Solin had in mind.

But he couldn’t hold back any longer.

With a thought, mana surged from his body.

He directly unleashed the Tidal Domain, rising into the air.

The water from the swamp surged from all directions around him. Seeing the swamp water floating around him and emitting a nauseating smell, Ji Chen frowned slightly. Without further delay, he immediately manipulated the water into blades.

Thousands of water blades took shape and descended from above.

Most struck the skeleton monsters, while some were aimed at Solin.

Solin watched hundreds of water blades coming at him, his mind shaken. He quickly drew the sword from his waist.

This finely crafted longsword had a golden gem embedded in the hilt that emitted a golden light, forming an inverted half-circle shield above his head.

Clang! Clang! Without exception, every water blade was deflected by the golden shield, leaving Solin unharmed within it.

Ji Chen’s eyes widened. Soon, his gaze fixed on the sword.

That sword was definitely no ordinary item.

Currently, his Tidal Dominator was an orange legacy-tier class. Each water blade he condensed possessed the destructive power of a red legacy-tier skill.

The fact that the golden shield could withstand hundreds of water blades and remain unscathed meant that the sword must be a high-level treasure.

It might even be more powerful than the Dragon Slayer Great Sword…

Thinking this, Ji Chen’s expression grew serious.

Solin watched as the water blades were deflected and the golden shield remained untouched, and he felt a sense of triumph.

This longsword had been acquired by him when he was still a weak white skeleton many years ago, found by chance in the red desert.

For hundreds of years, he had not seen any attack capable of breaking through the golden shield generated by the sword. It seemed this time was no exception.

Solin raised his head to look for signs of human disappointment but was puzzled to find the human’s face carried a hint of a smile instead.

Had this human lost his mind?

Then Solin saw Ji Chen pointing at the battlefield. When he turned to look, he was instantly infuriated.

The water blades falling like a storm couldn’t break the golden shield, but they were efficiently attacking the skeleton army.

Water blades that rivaled red legacy-tier skills in damage were causing the skeleton monsters to die or be wounded with each hit.

Countless skeleton monsters fell under these water blades, one after another.

Damn it!!

This cunning human!

Even Solin couldn’t help but feel a pang of sympathy as he saw advanced skeleton monsters falling one by one under the onslaught of water blades that were as powerful as red legacy-tier skills.

In his eyes, a fierce flame of gold burned with intense hatred for this human.

In his rage, he swung the longsword in his hand towards Ji Chen from a distance.

A crescent-shaped golden sword light was flung from the tip of his sword with astonishing speed, faster than a bullet. In an instant, it leapt to Ji Chen’s face.

Ji Chen’s pupils contracted greatly. Watching the swiftly approaching sword light, he only had time to slightly tilt his body before being hit.

Ah—

Even with his formidable willpower, he couldn’t help but cry out in pain. He tightly clenched his right hand, which was covered in blood from his severed left arm.

The golden sword light directly severed the portion of his left arm below the break, and the severed arm fell to the ground.

Hearing his cry of pain, a few heroes who were fighting turned instinctively to look. Seeing the scene of Ji Chen’s severed arm, they were instantly horrified.

“My lord!”

“Lord!”

“Don’t worry about me! Keep fighting!!!”

Ji Chen clenched his teeth tightly, suppressing the urge to cry out in pain. Through gritted teeth, he managed to utter his words.

“But…”

“This is an order!!!”

Upon hearing this, the few heroes hesitated briefly before gritting their teeth and continuing to fight, their attacks more vicious. The look in their eyes as they gazed at Solin became filled with murderous intent.

Veins and tendons stood out on Ji Chen’s forehead, his whole body covered in sweat. But he didn’t pay attention to his severed left arm; he simply stared fixedly at that longsword.

What kind of treasure was this longsword? It was so powerful that he had very little reaction time before being struck.

Feeling the intense pain surging from his left arm, Ji Chen’s anger flared up, and a sense of determination surged within him.

Fuck, let’s see whether you kill me first or I crack open your turtle shell and turn you into a sieve!

His mana started to deplete rapidly. Water condensed into dozens of massive swords, each over ten meters long, and they shot downwards.

Thud—

The giant swords collided with the shield, emitting a tremendous sound. The intense surge of energy caused the skeleton monsters within dozens of meters to be thrown back, breaking apart in mid-air.

Successive massive swords struck the shield.

The shield remained unscathed, but Ji Chen was undeterred. He brought out a mana pendant to frantically replenish his mana. Mana flowed out of him like water, continuously forming massive swords that were then brought down.

Twenty massive swords, leaving the shield untouched.

With fifty massive swords, a few faint white marks emerged.

Upon unleashing two hundred massive swords, a nearly invisible fracture materialized on the shield.

As four hundred massive swords descended, the fracture widened, becoming visible to the naked eye.

At this moment, Solin swung out another golden sword light. However, it was blocked by the shield bracelet Ji Chen had preemptively obtained from Alice. The fatal blow was deflected.

[Shield Bracelet (Damaged)]

[Tier]: 3-Star Treasure

[Effect]: When subjected to powerful attacks or when life is threatened, actively or automatically generate a shield around oneself to resist magical and physical attacks.

Although it blocked the attack, due to the overwhelming energy, the 3-star treasure shield bracelet was directly damaged and turned into a disposable consumable.

Seeing this, Ji Chen, who was experiencing physical pain, felt a pang of heartache.

Fifty thousand gold coins just flew away like that!

As a result, his gaze towards Solin became even more hostile.

If he didn’t manage to kill Solin right here and now, he would have his name spelled backwards!

Countless massive swords had fallen, and all Ji Chen knew was that his mana was nearly depleted, and there was not a drop left in the mana pendant.

But Solin’s golden shield was now covered with cracks, resembling a spider’s web, densely woven and on the verge of shattering.

Ji Chen took a deep breath and controlled the remaining dozen massive swords, dropping them one by one.

When he dropped the twelfth massive sword, with a cracking sound, the shield burst with a resounding explosion, dissipating its energy into the air.

Solin finally revealed his true form, and his voice sounded extremely sinister.

“Human, you truly don’t know your place… Since it’s come to this, I can only ensure that your soul is utterly obliterated!”

“Skeleton Wyverns, annihilate them all! Spare none!!”

The Skeleton Wyverns, which had been hovering in the sky all this time and had remained motionless even during the intense attacks, now dived down as ordered. Their mouths slightly agape, as if the next second would unleash a breath of death.

Only about sixty-five massive swords remained in the sky now, while fourteen Skeleton Wyverns descended. One massive sword could kill one of them, leaving around eight still intact, enough to inflict significant damage.

The heroes had almost exhausted all their abilities.

The few Dragon Blood Murlocs and Elemental Sea Pixies capable of aerial attacks attacked the descending Skeleton Wyverns, but the effect was minimal.

Under the suppression of tiers, levels, and skill damage reduction, these attacks only slightly slowed down the wyverns’ descent.

Alice’s face turned pale, her mana nearly depleted. Yet, despite the risk of mana exhaustion, she forced four of the Skeleton Wyverns to lose control of their bodies, causing them to crash heavily onto the ground, incapacitated by severe injuries.

But there were still four remaining!

At this point, Ji Chen had already landed on the ground to conserve mana. Clutching his severed arm, he looked up at the four growing black dots and took a deep breath.

He exerted his last remaining traces of mana.

Today, he couldn’t possibly die here like this!
