Three arrows whistled through the air, and this time the Great Demon King saw them clearly. He not only saw the three arrows, but also who had shot them.
The young man seemed to sense the Demon King's gaze. Above his high, hooked nose, a pair of eyes gleamed with a sinister light. He elegantly raised his right hand, making a firing gesture towards the Demon King.
His thin lips curled up slightly, as if he really held a gun in his hand, while the Great Demon King was already a dead man.
The Demon King saw his guild, the Skull and Bones, and the young man's ID was Demolition Expert.
The Great Demon King also laughed.
The young man suddenly sensed something was wrong. His lips had just curled into a smile when his health bar was suddenly emptied, a flash of white light appeared on his body, and he vanished from the spot.
The group of players standing next to the young man were all startled. One hunter reacted quickly, immediately throwing a flare to the ground—but where was the enemy assassin?
No one saw what attack the explosives expert was subjected to, nor what injuries he sustained. A perfectly healthy person was suddenly emptied of health and killed. This unknown and eerie phenomenon is more frightening than the truth itself.
"Tch, what's so great about that? It's just 100% damage reflection!"
Jiang Hao scoffed at the Great Demon King with a disdainful remark, "I was born to be rich, and I will surely be useful," but Jiang Hao understood it perfectly.
That's why I'm emotional!
Jiang Hao immediately chuckled. Archers are typically high-attack, low-health classes, arguably the most fragile physical damage dealers. With a mere 800 HP, a Demolitionist's small physique means that even the damage from just one arrow's explosion, let alone six, would easily be enough to take him down.
The Demon King's 100% damage reflection is a nightmare for archers. No, it's a nightmare for all squishy classes!
Looking at the Great Demon King again, Jiang Hao's eyes narrowed. If it weren't for the talent bonus from the Immortal Heart, even Jiang Hao probably wouldn't dare to easily wave his staff at him once he reached the second star.
With the Demon King's 48,000 HP and 1,600 defense, it was truly uncertain whether the opposing guilds could overcome him. Jiang Hao, somewhat curious, continued to observe the situation below.
Suddenly, four arrows shot out from the enemy's rear, whistling through the air, traversing most of the enemy army and reaching the Demon King in the blink of an eye. Their speed was twice as fast as the demolition expert's arrows! The Demon King's face turned pale at the sight. At his speed, he had no chance of dodging those four arrows. He wondered if the enemy really had two-star archers?
Even Jiang Hao was startled. The enemy's arrows were fast and fierce, and what was even more terrifying was that these arrows, having traveled such a great distance, showed no signs of weakening. If that archer were to fire a few arrows into the sky, they might actually reach the skeletal roc. Jiang Hao quickly looked towards the player who had fired the arrows.
The player fired four arrows, then ceased his attack, slowly lowering his longbow, his gaze seemingly fixed on the Great Demon King ahead. Seeing his confident demeanor, Jiang Hao surmised that his attack power was formidable; four arrows would be enough to instantly kill the Great Demon King.
Without time to look or think further, Jiang Hao immediately stretched out his right hand and made a grasping motion in the air.
Amidst the piercing screams of the arrows, several priests from the Heavenly Punishment Legion simultaneously cast healing spells on the Great Demon King.
The Demon King watched helplessly as the four arrows flew towards him, unable to dodge them. With a whoosh, one arrow pierced his body. His health instantly dropped. Then, with another whoosh, a second arrow pierced his body, causing his health to drop further. Just then, the priests cast a healing spell on him, instantly raising his health by 8900 points. The third arrow followed closely behind, piercing his body. His health dropped again, leaving him with only 605 points. The Demon King sighed inwardly; it seemed he couldn't withstand the last arrow.
Unexpectedly, just as the arrow was flying towards his chest and the tip was about to touch his body, it suddenly disappeared.
After waiting for a while, no white light of death appeared on their bodies. Instead, the health bars above their heads continued to rise higher and higher thanks to the priests' persistent efforts.
The Great Demon King was puzzled.
Was the opponent showing mercy? Or was the fourth arrow merely an afterimage of the third?
Because of the great distance, the Demon King couldn't see who fired the arrow at all. He could only tell from the trajectory of the arrow that it came from the enemy's rear. Sweat dripped down the Demon King's forehead.
That archer was undoubtedly a two-star archer. Not only was his arrow-firing speed incredibly fast, but his attack range was also terrifyingly long. Hidden within the enemy army, he was like a demon lurking in the shadows, ready to launch a fatal attack at any moment. The Great Demon King wanted to retreat to the rear ranks, but dared not move an inch.
The Demon King was horrified, unaware that Jiang Hao was equally astonished. He clearly saw the archer's attributes: Level 18, ordinary archer, 1230 HP, 365 attack power. If it weren't for the terrifying sound of the arrows, allowing him to witness the final shot, Jiang Hao would never have believed that the four arrows that nearly killed the Demon King were fired by him.
What kind of strange talent is this?
If he had fired just one more arrow, the Great Demon King would probably have really kicked the bucket.
Jiang Hao couldn't help but curse inwardly. He was completely unaware of how the archer would react to his snatching of the fourth arrow mid-air.
The archer, his eyes wide with disbelief, stared as if he'd seen a ghost. The fourth arrow, poised to finish off the weakened demon king, had vanished without a trace. He even wondered if he'd fired three or four arrows. He shook his head violently, raising his bow again, only to sense something abruptly. His eyes narrowed, his health bar emptied, a flash of white light engulfed him, and he met his untimely end at the hands of the demolition expert.
Despite being just an ordinary archer, this player was able to unleash such a sharp attack. Jiang Hao memorized the player's guild and ID. "Beautiful Country Death Crossing Guild," ID: Sunset.
At the same time, a deep sense of doubt arose in Jiang Hao's heart. Given the strength that the Demolition Expert and Sunset had just displayed, there was no reason for them to still be ordinary players. If they were in China, they would probably have already passed the first-star trial. So why were they still like this? Did America not have a star-level challenge mechanism?
This seems unlikely. Even though everyone is on different servers, the game mechanics should at least be the same.
Jiang Hao suddenly remembered his talent. Teaming up with him meant inheriting 10% of the talent's damage. Was it possible that these two players could gain something from their teammate?
Could it be that there are hidden masters among the enemy forces?
Jiang Hao felt a chill run down his spine and began to carefully scan the three guilds in the United States, hoping to find out the player who was hiding so well in advance.
