Chapter 525: Shameless Tornadoes
Translator: Sparrow Translations Editor: Sparrow Translations
Wang Yu’s moves were not system skills and the judgement was also that of a normal attack. Wang Yu was naturally unable to contain Messiah’s full force attack.
After throwing Wang Yu aside, Messiah did a backflip and got away from Wang Yu swiftly. He pulled apart from the chasing Wang Yu before raising his bow. Seconds later, about 10 green arrows flew towards Wang Yu in three different rows.
Array Rows Arrow: A Sharpshooter’s high-level skill which allows one to shoot three rows of arrows towards the target. The array arrows bring along the retreat effect.
Looking at how Messiah shot the Array Rows Arrow without hesitation, one could tell that this fella was highly experienced in combat.
Messiah knew that his skills would not be enough to kill Wang Yu. However, all he wanted to do was to force Wang Yu to retreat. As long as Wang Yu backed off for a while, Messiah would have the chance to fly again. This time, if Messiah prepared himself well, even if he couldn’t kill Wang Yu, Wang Yu could forget about touching him.
Of course, Wang Yu thought of this too and he wouldn’t want to give Messiah that opportunity to back off. Therefore, he charged forward instead of dodging when he saw the Array Rows Arrows flying towards him. When the arrows almost hit him, Wang Yu wielded his long pole and struck it against the ground so that he could jump above the arrows.
“He is trying to jump over?” Messiah was slightly taken aback because the length of the three rows of arrows was close to eight metres. Could this fella really jump so far?
Wang Yu’s jumping power was naturally not that impressive. However, with the help of his pole, 3-5 metres was still manageable. When he was about to land, Wang Yu used [Crushing Blow] and covered another five metres as he flew and arrived above Messiah.
Messiah was truly shocked as he hurriedly held his bow with his left hand and pulled the bowstring with his right hand. As he raised his bow in an attempt to shoot Wang Yu from close range, Wang Yu used [Eagle Stomp] to get out of the way. Wang Yu’s other leg extended beyond the bow as he kicked Messiah’s face. Following Wang Yu’s kick, Messiah was forced to take two steps back. At this point in time, the second segment of Wang Yu’s [Eagle Stomp] landed on the ground. With a lush of his left hand, a [Rippling Wave] was sent flying towards Messiah.
Presently, Messiah also came back to his senses as he extended both arms. A green translucent wind shield blocked Wang Yu’s [Rippling Wave]. Concurrently, Wang Yu’s body flashed as he shouted, “I’m here!”
Messiah was astonished as he anxiously used his wind shield to cover his face. Wang Yu chuckled and extended both his arms. One of his hand grabbed Messiah’s collar while the other grabbed his waist. With one extremely powerful [Knee Strike], he managed to send Messiah back on the floor again.
Messiah looked blankly and hopelessly into the sky.
[Crushing Blow], [Rippling Wave], [Knee Strike] and [Eagle Stomp] were the four most basic moves of a Pugilist. To think that Wang Yu could achieve so much with just that four moves, Messiah was gasping in amazement and shock.
What Messiah didn’t know was that if it wasn’t for the fact that only system skills would be supported by effects. Wang Yu’s normal attacks would have been even more frightening.
When Messiah fell to the ground, Wang Yu’s left hand turned into a claw while his right hand turned into a fist as he went rampage on beating Messiah up.
Messiah lay on the ground as he recited, “Tornado, release!”
Following Messiah’s recitation, three tornados appeared in front of Messiah as they flew towards Wang Yu.
[Tornado] was a high-level wind attribute magic skill. In fact, it was the preposition skill of the wind attribute ultimate magic skill [Wind Dragon Heaven Whirl]. Not only as the damage high but the range of the attack was far. It was even able to induce the airborne effect. All the objects in the environment would be destroyed as well.
This was the true power of the Wind Elf. To think that he could execute such a high-level attack so casually.
Wang Yu was less than a few inches away from Messiah. Facing three monstrous tornadoes which were about 1 metre in length each, there was no way Wang Yu could avoid or dodge them. Wang Yu was instantly sent flying into the air by the tornadoes.
Making use of this opportunity, Messiah got back on his feet and took out his bow and arrow once more. He aimed it towards Wang Yu, who was in the sky.
The airborne Wang Yu was unable to fully control his body as he tried his best to twist his body in an attempt to dodge the arrows…
No one knew if it was because of Messiah’s anxious state of mind or the effect of Wang Yu’s twisting and turning but two out of the three arrows that Messiah shot missed.
“Argh…” Messiah looked at Wang Yu, who was still in the sky, and swallowed his saliva anxiously. He wiped his sweat quietly.
To be completely honest with himself, Messiah had never seen such a difficult fella to deal with in the 800 years that he lived. He was clearly more superior than Wang Yu in terms of every single attribute but he was still finding it so tough to deal with him. Seconds ago, he was still forced to use his high-level magic skill. This time, this ancient BOSS had really fallen into a hard battle.
“It seems like it isn’t by luck that this kid can pass Zeus’ trials… No wonder he mentioned that he likes to fight. One really should never offend a Pugilist.” Messiah might be complaining in his heart but his hands never stopped moving.
Arrows after arrows were shot at Wang Yu. Even though Wang Yu was able to dodge a few of them, Messiah’s shot rate was simply too quick. In just a few moments, Wang Yu was left with a bit of health.
“You’re dead!” Messiah saw Wang Yu’s constant depletion of health as he reloaded a few arrows onto his bow. He shouted with a lot of satisfaction knowing that his enemy was going to die.
“I’m still far from dying!”
Wang Yu could sense Messiah’s murderous intent from mid-air so he shouted back at him. With his [Inner Breath Roll], a blue light covered his body and his airborne state was immediately dismissed.
After getting rid of his airborne state, Wang Yu’s landed on the ground using his strengthened [Thunder God’s Stomp]. He managed to force Messiah back and quickly followed that up with a jump.
Messiah took a few steps back and he crossed his arms again before reciting, “Tornadoes, release!”
Three tornadoes flew towards Wang Yu yet again.
The speed of tornadoes was actually not very fast. When Wang Yu saw the tornadoes flying towards him, he came to a halt in a flurry before jumping away to increase the distance between them. Gaps started appearing between the three tornadoes. Wang Yu jumped to one side and coincidentally managed to dodge the incoming tornado.
However, it seemed as though Messiah’s tornadoes had no cooldown time. Almost immediately after seeing Wang Yu dodged his attack, he sent another three more towards Wang Yu. Wang Yu just increased the distance between them and was forced to retreat again.
“Hehe, you can’t come over now!”
When Messiah finally realised that one of his skill was working effectively against Wang Yu, he laughed and increased the speed of execution.
The diameter of every tornado was at least one metre and the three tornadoes would amount to three metres in diameter. Such a range was even more effective than wind shield. This skill protected Messiah well and Wang Yu dared not go close to him.
Messiah was the incarnation of wind and he possessed [Sigh Of The Wind]. With almost half of his MP gone and the fact that his wind magic had no cooldown time, he wasn’t bothered about doing anything else. All he did was to brainlessly executing his skill.
Messiah didn’t believe that by releasing so many tornadoes, he wouldn’t be able to hit Wang Yu with at least one of them.
Facing Messiah’s shameless way of fighting, Wang Yu was really getting tired of dealing with this. Getting hit by one would send him flying and that would put him in a vulnerable state. Therefore, Wang Yu dared not go too close as he was merely dodging the tornadoes from about 2 metres away from Messiah.
Even though [Inner Breath Roll] could dismiss the effect, the cooldown time for this skill was incredibly long. Even if he could use it now, he would only be able to dismiss the effect of one tornado. Given Messiah’s rate of attacks, Wang Yu would need to minimally dismiss two tornadoes in quick succession. If he wanted to get close to Messiah, the only way would be to have a skill that could stop him from speaking. Otherwise, he would really be literally sent flying to heaven.
