<h4>Chapter 93 - Escaping from Burial Grounds (XXIII)</h4>


    <i>Editor: Kitty</i>


    Never expose the back-row yers to the front line in a team battle.


    Tactically speaking, the back-row yers referred to those who specialized in long-rangebat, like Specter and Feng YuLan. They generally had weak defense but strong attacks. Many of them were weak in defense and possessed little melee strength, but they yed an auxiliary role...... Yes, they weremonly known as wet nurses.


    Do not look down on wet nurses. If there were no wet nurses in a team when entering a chamber...... maybe the team could win, but they might also suffer heavy losses.


    Now, the team led by the vampire team captain was miserable. Two of the team members could still move, two were missing, and one was seriously injured. This was unprecedented for them and led the vampire team captain to have a bad premonition.


    How can we win?


    The vampire team captain was holding the long-haired woman in his arms and standing next to the tall and strong Brawny. They were in the same huge tomb vault with the enemy’s team, but the vault was toorge. There were many burned remains of nt monsters on the ground, and there was still a long distance to go before they could get close to the center. Therefore, the vampire team captain could only watch from afar as everything happened.


    But even if he was just watching from afar, he could see the man who imed to be a god floating in the sky. He waspletely naked, and his long ck hair extended to his feet. The hair twisted and swayed automatically even when there was no wind; in other words, such ck hair which could move by itself and was very long made people feel a little frightened just by looking at it.


    The god was supported by some vines from the big tree, and the vines ascended high and suspended him in the air. It seemed that he was fighting with someone. However, he could only see when the man raised his arm and blood red vines ‘grew’ on his arm. These vines gathered and formed the shape of a de!


    Yes, it appeared like a huge, red sickle growing on his arm. No matter how one looked at it, one would find it bone-chilling, but Duan Li, who was having a close-range battle with the god, unnaturally frowned.


    “This fellow’s abilities seem to be rted to nts,” Duan Li said, “He can turn wood into a de or use flowers to nurture life. And his speed and reaction are very fast, almost the same as mine. Unless I unlock the fifth segment, I really can’t surpass him in speed.”


    “Then why not try unlocking the fifth segment?” Specter stood behind him and suggested, and he had already switched his weapon back to the two-pistols mode. When using the rocketuncher or simr weapons, the cannons would have a buffer time before activating. No matter how fast Specter moved, he could not hit the god, who was more flexible than a monkey, although he could not hit the other party with a light-weight pistol, either.


    “Though I can do it, I’m afraid the other party still has a move saved.” With a swing of his sword, Duan Li forced the god back a few steps and pulled Specter to retreat quite a distance from the god. After separating a certain distance from the enemy, he said to Specter, “When I unleash the fifth segment, I can only use it for three seconds, and after that I will be paralyzed and unable to move for an hour. Therefore, if I don’t have to, I will never use this skill because if I can’t resolve all the enemies in these three seconds, I would be no different from a fish on a chopping board.”


    “I see.” After hearing this, Specter nodded and said, “But this should be your ultimate skill. Is it alright for you to tell me that?”


    Duan Liughed: “So what if you know? To be honest, I have never seen anyone faster than me.”


    “What about your former captain?” Specter asked suddenly.


    In Specter’s eyes, it was really amazing that Duan Li was willing to be a member of a certain team.


    In order to promotemunication between yers, the secret chamber had set up a ce simr to a trading market for yers to exchange information and props. However, this trading ground was only avable to senior yers. As long as one sessfully escaped the secret chamber five times, one was qualified to enter. At present, Luo Jian and Ah Lan still did not know the existence of such a ce.


    At the same time, they didn’t know that there was a huge bulletin board in the trading station, which was usually used by yers to release team formation information, recruit yers, trade information, or post wanted notices for certain yers. Among these wanted yers, one could often find information about the thousand-faced man and Duan Li, so this fool had be famous without realizing, and no teams were willing to allow him to join.


    With the passage of time, the number of yers in the secret chamber had increased. There was a column of rankings on the billboard, which disyed theprehensive strength rankings of teams. Back then, team Ghost Shadow was always at the top.


    The captain of team Ghost Shadow had always been a mystery. Specter had never met that person. It seemed that Duan Li had been in that team for a while, so his curiosity could not be helped but be aroused.


    “You’ve met my former captain.” Duan Liughed, and the words that he spoke were full of implications. He nced in Luo Jian’s direction inadvertently. At the moment, Luo Jian followed the stalker slowly as they headed towards Specter andpany’s direction. Along the way, they swept away the monsters that were notpletely dead and wiped the ground free of them.


    Ah Lan wasparably more pitiful. He was still standing in the same ce, alone. When Duan Li had run to provide support for Specter, he had told him to remain in the same ce and not run around, so Ah Lan stood there obediently and stared at the scattered debris. Then he noticed that there was a huge corpse lying not far away from him. It was a corpse that was already scorched and lookedpletely unrecognizable. The huge monster was covered with ck ashes, and it seemingly had not died yet. asionally, it would twitch.


    Ah Lan was immediately troubled, and he thought about whether he should stab the enemy again or not. Although the monster was dying and seemed to have no strength to attack again, he was still afraid that there was a one in ten thousand chance of it happening, although he thought it might be impossible. It was not known how many people had died because they disregarded such impossibilities.


    After struggling for a while, Ah Lan decided to add another stab to it and walked towards the remains of the monster. That monster was huge...... it was more than two meters tall and had a big girth. It looked like a ball from a distance.


    It was just that the big spherical monster had been burned beyond recognition by the mes of the explosion. The ck, burnt ball was simply lying on the ground. It was notpletely dead, and its body was wriggling irregrly...... Wait! It was squirming?


    Feng YuLan’s footsteps halted because he had a bit of a strange feeling.


    After a closer look, he found that the big monster seemed to have no limbs, and it was akin to a huge mass of fat. Its squirming was also strange because Feng YuLan realized that it was not the big spherical monster that was moving, but that the big monster’s body seemed to have some other creatures wriggling within it......


    There was something in there.


    Aware of this, Feng YuLan was extremely vignt and suddenly realized that he was in a very unfavorable situation. He was alone now, and his other teammates were fighting with the god at a distance far away from him. Even if they were aware that Ah Lan was in danger, it would be difficult for them to find time to save him.


    “Isn’t that the same as before?” Feng YuLan thought of when he was alone in the hidden secret chamber, and that made him a little grumpy. He opened his grimoire and walked quickly to the giant spherical monster. He had to kill this thing in its cradle before something unknown popped out of it.


    “Can it be done?” Feng YuLan turned to ask his grimoire.


    With a rustle, his grimoire flipped through several pages, and the answer Feng YuLan needed soon appeared on it. It was a brand-new magic spell.


    The spell was not short, but it was not too long either. However, Feng YuLan was very excited because he found that this was the first time that the grimoire showed him an offensive magic spell. Compared to those magic spells he had learned before that only yed auxiliary roles, the current spell clearly excited Ah Lan more.


    But before Ah Lan memorized the spell, with a rustle, the grimoire began to flip through its pages again, and a sentence appeared on it:


    [You should remember that this is the most suitable offensive spell for you, which I had chosen from thousands of spells.]


    Magic was ssified into different kinds. For example, the spells that Ah Lan had cast before—the floating spell, small-scale enchantment spell, the spell to light a ball of light around him, etc—belonged to auxiliary magic, and not all auxiliary magic could be used by Ah Lan. For instance, a senior auxiliary magic spell that Ah Lan had seen in his grimoire previously had the following function: imprison an enemy and cause him to be unable to ‘make any movements’ for several seconds—Yes, this kind of magic that controlled someone also belonged to the auxiliary type, but Ah Lan could not use it at this stage.


    The use of some magic depended on the magician’s physique. Some magicians were suitable for fire elemental magic, while some magicians were more suitable for ice elemental magic. Talent and physique determined whether one could learn more spells. Some magicians were born with a talent only for a certain type of auxiliary magic, and they might not be able to learn other types of auxiliary magic, not to mention other magic types.


    As for Feng YuLan, his grimoire had told him, “The most suitable attack magic for you is actually a type of summoning magic.”


    To be a summoner?


    Feng YuLan recited the magic spell ording to the contents of the grimoire. He tried to pronounce it slowly and urately...... In fact, he did not know what he would summon. What his grimoire wanted him to aplish was to imagine and build a cold weapon in his mind...... This made him think of Duan Li’s tang sword unconsciously.


    So when he finished reading the spell, he really had an extra sword in his hand.


    “Hey! I say, is that the limit of summoning?!” Ah Lan speechlessly stared at the sword in his hand. It was exactly the same as the tang sword he thought of. He did not know if he had really summoned Duan Li’s sword. If that was the case, the situation could not be worse.


    With a rustle, the grimoire continued to flip:


    [Your summoning skill is not very urate, although it was sessful for a first try, but...... Who told you to summon only one sword?! You can summon a lot of weapons at the same time, all kinds of weapons, as long as you have seen and can imagine its appearance. Besides that, you can make these weapons appear anywhere and control its direction, angle, and trajectory. For example, summon a rain of arrows on top of the enemy’s head! You know what I mean?!]


    “Oh? It’s used in this way? It sounds pretty good...... You mean I can control this knife at will? Let it fly, for example?” When Feng YuLan said it, he decisively tried. He released the handle, and the tang sword floated naturally, just as he had imagined.


    Then, Ah Lan looked at the huge ball monster, waved his hand, and directed the de to fly towards the monster.


    The tang sword immediately floated high, and it was extremely fast...... it charged ahead at lightning-fast speed, and it reached there in almost a blink of an eye! It went through the body of the spherical monster! Ah Lan saw only a sh of cold light. The sword remained white when it went in and white when it came out. Even blood was not able to stain it.


    “This speed...... What a surprise!” Feng YuLan was really shocked. The speed of this sword...... Yes, it was simply almost as fast as Duan Li! Following along with what Feng YuLan had imagined, the sword would fly itself towards wherever he wanted!


    At this time, the grimoire began to flip suddenly and started to exin:


    [If you imagine the weapon of a yer, it may have the special ability of that yer. But the premise is that you can only summon one such weapon at a time...... If you grow stronger in the future, you may be able to control more of these.]


    [But even so, your talent is still beyond my imagination.]
