Step onto the teleportation array.
The next second, Lu Cang appeared outside the instance.
And it was at this very moment that Lu Cang appeared outside the instance.
Fireballs came from all directions, sharp points rose from the ground, and then pierced through the earth, heading straight for Lu Cang.
At this moment, Lu Cang couldn't see any of these things at all.
Because Lu Cang's vision was completely obscured by darkness.
----------------------------------------
【Shadow Cloak (A): Creates a pure dark area with a radius of 15 meters (increases with level) centered on the caster. Being within this area will weaken the five senses of hostile creatures and completely shut down their vision.】
----------------------------------------
"We succeeded!"
The moment he left the instance, Lu Cang's eyes were plunged into darkness.
The other attacks were launched almost simultaneously!
Dozens of fireballs flew over immediately, and even the earth glowed slightly. Bai Lu was not the only mage who could learn Earth Fire Impact.
But it happened in the next moment!
Lu Cang switched his weapon to a spear.
Puff puff puff puff puff!
His spear danced wildly—[Consecutive Thrusts] [Sweeping Strike] [Sky Strike]
Lu Cang used all his skill points to learn one-star minor skills.
Lu Cang moved nimbly, dodging one fireball after another with his footwork, or detonating them with his spear, creating a dazzling burst of sparks in mid-air.
Lu Cang himself, however, was completely unaffected by any attack.
Even the sharpshooter's bullets were deflected dozens of times by Lu Cang's spear.
Boom boom boom boom boom!
Behind Lu Cang, streaks of earth fire shot into the sky!
How could a slow-burst spell like Earth Fire possibly hit Lu Cang?
If these mages dispersed the earth fire, completely covering a large area, that would be fine.
But they just believed that Lu Cang wouldn't react so quickly.
Therefore, the range of the ground fire is limited to a radius of ten meters in front of the dungeon entrance.
Lu Cang only needs to run two steps to get out of that area.
Not to mention, there's also the bonus from the [Light Feather Boots].
After the attack, the ground was riddled with holes, and the withered grass still bore the embers of the flames.
Despite being surrounded by a hundred people without any vision, Lu Cang was not hit by any of their skills.
These players each have their own unique talent effects.
At the same time, dealing with a wide variety of talents can be quite challenging for the average person.
However, in reality, the talent to hit every time is extremely rare.
Most talents below S-rank are enhancements to various aspects of oneself.
It does enhance strength and has special effects, but it is by no means a qualitative change like an S-level talent.
Lu Cang, on the other hand, dodged all the skills he could.
Lu Cang was about to escape the dark area shrouded in shadow, but just as he was about to step out of the shadows, he stopped.
He suddenly squatted down.
Behind Lu Cang, Yin Kong looked somewhat surprised.
His attack missed!
-------------------------------------
[Void Annihilation (S): Can appear at any time behind a target within a 15-meter radius who is not in your field of vision (1-second cooldown on the same target), attacking from a direction where you have no vision and dealing 10 times the damage. You cannot be detected by perception-based abilities. Attacking from behind deals instant kill to non-divine beings with less than 20% health.]
----------------------------------------
There are no weak S-level talents.
Yin Kong was puzzled; how could his attack have missed?
The fact that the Void Annihilation could be activated indicates that Lu Cang had no vision of his own at all.
If Lu Cang's actions just now could be explained by his perception-based abilities, then my own talent for annihilation can block perception.
He couldn't possibly be aware of his own existence!
In the fleeting moment as the dagger grazed Lu Cang's head, a series of thoughts flashed through Yin Kong's mind, his head filled with disbelief.
But the next moment, Lu Cang took a step forward.
Having left the area shrouded in darkness, Lu Cang simultaneously thrust his spear into the air.
[Sky Strike]
With a single strike, Yin Kong was sent flying into the air.
Immediately afterwards, Lu Cang took a step back and jumped, changing his weapon to a dagger. He used Arc Flash followed by an A attack, instantly killing the two closest players.
In a mere second, the dagger switched back to the spear.
[Sweep] The sweeping range almost draws a circle!
Players all around were hit by the sweeping attack!
Blood splattered!
Lu Cang's orientation also shifted from facing Yin Kong to facing another group of enemies.
Immediately afterward, Lu Cang advanced with a [Continuous Thrust], striking twice in succession. The two illusory spear thrusts went in two different directions!
Pfft!
-2814
-2139
-2130
-2194
One spear pierced through three enemies in succession.
The two thrusting spears instantly killed six enemy players.
Before Yin Kong even landed, Lu Cang had already killed more than a dozen players from the Yin Yuan Guild.
Just as Yin Kong was about to fall from mid-air...
But then they saw that the spear in Lu Cang's hand had transformed into a flintlock musket.
Bang!
A silver bullet was fired!
[Floating Bomb]
The bullet hit the invisible body.
Instead of falling, Yin Kong was blasted even higher.
Bang!
Another shot was fired, directly into the black mist.
-5921
The player with the [Shadow Concealment] talent was dealt with by Lu Cang, and the black mist completely dissipated.
Lu Cang turned and switched back to his dagger! He rushed towards Yin Kong's direction!
Bang bang bang bang! Bang bang bang bang bang!
Several gunshots rang out, but Lu Cang didn't even turn his head. With an uncanny posture, he slashed the bullets behind him with his dagger.
Seeing this, even the sharpshooters from the Hidden Origin Guild couldn't help but curse.
"Holy crap! Is this even humanly possible?!"
"Shooting bullets with a backhand without any line of sight? Is this even human? Does he have eyes in the back of his head?"
"Damn, does he even have eyes in the back of his head to pull off a move like that? Even if I had eyes all over the back of my head, I still couldn't do that!"
Seeing this, the dim-looking creature became enraged: "What are you standing there for! Attack!"
Who gets stunned by the enemy's actions?
But in that short period of time, Lu Cang returned to the vicinity of Yin Kong once again.
The cleanup just now was mainly to clear out anyone else within a 15-meter radius of the hidden space.
To prevent Hidden Void from using his innate ability to teleport away friendly forces.
Now that he's the only one left in the area, even if his teammates don't have vision of him, he can't move away.
Approaching the hidden space again, Lu Cang transformed his dagger into a spear.
[Thousand Machines - Spear Form Effect: Combo Thrust - Every 5 combos will refresh the Combo Thrust skill once. The required combo count increases by 1 for each subsequent refresh. The combo resets after a 5-second interruption.]
This is also why Lu Cang was able to use the Continuous Thrust so frequently.
Before Yin Kong landed, he did not perform a double jump.
The assassin's movement skill, Arc Flash, requires both feet to have something to brace against in order to use it.
He's currently in mid-air and unable to make any adjustments.
But Lu Cang has already returned to fight his way back.
Thrusts in quick succession!
Pfft!
Two consecutive thrusts aimed at the sky struck Yin Kong in the back!
Bang! Bang!
Two crisp sounds rang out.
The protective shield shielding the hidden space was completely shattered.
This time, not only damage dealers came, but also a number of support players.
It also includes some A-level protective talents.
With these people around, two attacks definitely wouldn't be enough to kill Yin Kong.
But the two consecutive upward thrusts made Yin Kong's floating figure fly even higher.
If the shield can block twice, how many more times can it block?
Taking advantage of the opening, Lu Cang immediately flung the resurrection flag to the side at a distance.
The flag was planted firmly in the ground.
There were no enemies at that location, so even if Yin Kong revived, he couldn't use the momentum to escape.
[Target locked upon resurrection: Hidden Void]
Then, wielding his spear, he turned and swept it horizontally!
Lu Cang's sweeping attack could hardly be called a sweeping attack; it was practically a circular sweep!
With a single sweep, he instantly blasted away all the bullets and fireballs behind him!
The timing was perfect.
Lu Cang ignored the stray bullets that brushed past him and turned back to continue firing his floating, hidden attacks.
[Sky Strike] launches the enemy into the air again.
Immediately afterwards, the spear thrust forward repeatedly at top speed!
Yin Kong wanted to fight back, to block, to counterattack, but the problem was that he was facing the sky with his back to the ground, so he couldn't make a move at all.
puff!
Finally, Lu Cang pierced through the last barrier.
-2148
The spear, carrying significant damage, pierced directly through his body.
Puff puff puff!
Then came a rapid series of thrusts!
-1324
-1230
...
After the two thrusts, Yin Kong's health bar instantly became empty.
He died.
After killing Yin Konglian, Lu Cang didn't waste a moment.
They turned and charged directly at the Hidden Origin Guild's formation.
Bang bang bang bang bang!
Lu Cang fired his flintlock pistol continuously, specifically targeting vulnerable spots.
Every shot was a headshot.
-6022
-5043
-5920
For firearms, headshots provide an additional damage bonus, and flintlock rifles have the highest headshot multiplier of 3x.
One shot, one kill.
The reason he didn't use his gun to activate [Stealth] was because he had [Bullet Avoidance] buff applied by someone else.
It's not that you can't hit it at all.
Judging from Lu Cang's skills, he was able to hit the target.
However, hitting the head will force a deflection.
Melee attacks are the most reliable.
The flintlock pistol has high single-shot damage and a high headshot multiplier, but its attack speed is not fast.
After killing five or six men, Lu Cang charged into the center of the enemy formation.
Kill the mage first!
These mages, with their slow movement and casting speed, were no match for Lu Cang's charge.
Lu Cang was like a war god, charging in and swinging his spear as he stormed in!
The spear's most distinctive attack feature is its wide-range melee attack.
Sweeping is both a skill and a basic attack.
Sweep is the default skill for spear weapons; it is automatically available when the weapon is equipped and is a unique attack mode of the weapon.
The cooldown for the Spear Sweep is only 0.5 seconds, and the faster the attack speed, the shorter the cooldown.
However, the damage multiplier for a sweeping attack is lower than that for a stab.
Lu Cang charged forward with his spear, sweeping across twice in a short time, wiping out the entire group of more than twenty mages!
With Lu Cang's current agility attribute of over 2000, it's perfectly normal for him to kill these "low-level" fragile mages with a single spear thrust.
Wipe out an entire enemy mage team in two seconds.
Not far away, Yin Kong had also been resurrected.
Bang!
The weapon in his hand switched to a flintlock pistol in an instant, without the slightest delay.
A shot was fired!
-5532
One shot to the head.
Yin Kong, who had just been resurrected, died again.
After being revived, the [Bulletproof Protection] has been deactivated.
He died again before he could even see his surroundings clearly.
He himself didn't even understand how he died.
Seeing this, even the dim-looking person was stunned.
Why did Yin Kong resurrect there?
Shouldn't he respawn at the nearest respawn point?
The reason this operation was launched was because the worst possible outcome was acceptable.
After Yin Kong is defeated, he will only lose a maximum of 10% of his experience.
At worst, I'll just lose another piece of silver equipment.
This is the limit.
This level of loss is still within an acceptable range.
But why is he resurrected nearby? This is bad!
Bang!
However, there was no longer any chance for him to continue thinking.
Another bullet has been fired from the sky.
To catch the thief, first catch the king.
A hollow appeared on the dull forehead.
Lu Cang shot him in the head.
Thump, it fell to the ground, its light dim, and became a corpse.
The nearest respawn point isn't exactly close to the Blackwater Cave.
It won't be able to get here in a short time.
With their captain gone, the mage team was instantly wiped out, and the entire team descended into chaos.
"Hold on, everyone! Focus fire and take down Skyfall! There's still a chance!" Amid the chaos, a gunman shouted in the team voice chat while firing continuously.
He was the deputy commander, and his main job was to coordinate personnel.
Now that the vice president is dead, he will take over the command position completely.
Bang! Bang! Bang! The gunman fired continuously!
But as soon as the gunman opened fire, Lu Cang switched to a dagger and charged at the gunman head-on!
Bang! Ding ding ding ding!
A knife slices through bullets! The speed is insane!
Every player from the Hidden Origin Guild who participated in this raid can swear that they have never seen such speed before.
"Damn, what kind of monster is that?!"
"You think you can split a sharpshooter's bullet like that? You must be kidding me!"
"Saying he's awesome doesn't mean his technology is this awesome!"
"Damn, regular bullets are completely useless!"
"Even if he dodges the special bullets, they won't hit him!"
In front of Lu Cang, the bullets of these gunmen were like decorations.
Whoosh!
He quickly approached the Gunners.
An arc of light flashed in an eerie curve, followed immediately by a sweeping thrust of the spear!
I've seen Arc Flash combo any assassin skill.
But I have never seen a flash of light followed by a sweeping thrust of a spear.
The members of the Hidden Origin Guild were positioned close together in order to reliably and quickly kill Cang Qiong.
If the position is too far away, the ballistic trajectory will be a longer distance.
Therefore, their distance from the entrance to the Blackwater Cavern instance is approximately 20 to 30 meters outside the radius of the black mist.
It presents a semi-circular enclosure.
Each team is also very close together.
Now, Lu Cang has stormed into their camp as if it were empty.
Kill the mage first, then the gunman.
The assassins, hidden from all sides, had no opening to attack.
Once Lu Cang swings his spear and sweeps across, these fragile assassins will be instantly killed.
Therefore, they can only watch from within a "safe range" and try to find an opportunity to act.
However, Lu Cang left no openings for them to exploit.
11 people, 24 people, 35 people...
In front of Lu Cang, the number of people seemed like a laughable figure.
Bang!
-5291
During the killing, Lu Cang also took out his flintlock pistol and fired another shot at Yin Kong, who had revived, killing him instantly once again.
Then the flintlock musket transformed into a spear and thrust it straight forward!
puff!
Blood splattered!
The deputy commander who took over the dimly lit position also fell.
Without any command, the players of the Hidden Origin Guild were completely at a loss.
They realized it.
Continuing to fight like this will undoubtedly lead to defeat!
No, we should say we've already lost; the ranged attackers are almost all dead.
All that's left are some melee classes, and a few healers and support classes.
Fighting the heavens in close combat?
That god-like stance, is he going to fight in close combat?
As for treatment... what good is it? Everyone is instantly killed from full health, there's simply no room for healing.
In front of Lu Cang, there are only two states: full health and death.
"Retreat!" Finally, they stopped struggling!
Someone shouted loudly.
Upon hearing this, the other surviving players immediately began to panic and flee.
"Heh, why are you withdrawing?"
However, Lu Cang did not pursue them, as the current danger had been eliminated.
These people no longer had any intention of killing Cang Qiong.
The Assassin Guild, a carefully laid ambush by the Manchus.
Even when the S-rank Yin Kong was still alive, with everything in place and the enemy in the open while we were in the dark, we still couldn't kill him.
Now they've been slaughtered, and both commanders are dead.
For some unknown reason, S-class characters would revive on the sidelines, only to die repeatedly.
Are we still going to fight?
What a load of crap! There's absolutely no chance of winning!
In contrast, Lu Cang was not killed at all; his health bar didn't even drop a single bit.
It only has some low-level, unavoidable effects like poisonous clouds and gases.
He was slightly poisoned, and from start to finish, he lost a few points of health.
However, during the poisoning process, Lu Cang directly took a bottle of antidote, which solved the problem.
This war god is still in full condition.
"Run!" he shouted again.
All those involved in the assassination immediately lost their will to fight: "He didn't chase us! We can still escape!"
"Damn it, I don't want to lose my bronze equipment!"
If you can avoid death, naturally no one wants to die.
Dying in a game is not terrible, but dying without contributing anything is something no player wants.
Not to mention, death comes with punishment, and nobody wants to die meaninglessly.
However, just because Lu Cang didn't chase them doesn't mean they could escape.
As these people began to scatter and flee, three well-equipped players also emerged from the dungeon.
[Bai Lu] [Fearless Warrior] [Leng Qingying]
call!
The white deer gently raised its hand, and the calligraphy floated.
Then, the earth lit up.
"Flame Pillar".
I saw the earth shining.
Several fast runners ran ahead, trying to exceed the limits of their skills.
But they discovered that the limits of skill... lay tens of meters away.
"Depend on……"
How can a skill have such an outrageous range? Is this the Flame Pillar? Are you kidding me!
boom!
But there was no time for them to be surprised.
A pillar of flame shot into the sky, covering a large area!
Whoosh! Flames raged.
-
-
-
-
-
-
...
Almost instantly, the players who scattered and fled were burned to a crisp.
[Hidden Void] is revived outside the skill's range.
As soon as he was resurrected, Lu Cang raised his hand and fired a shot.
Bang!
Smash him to death again!
The pillar of flame dissipated.
The land was left in ruins, littered with equipment dropped by players after their deaths.
When killed in the wild, the drop rate for each piece of equipment is 3%, and the higher the quality of the equipment, the lower the drop rate.
Even so, if you equip all 10 pieces of equipment, the probability of losing equipment is still quite high.
Lu Cang has a high luck stat, so the probability of him dropping equipment is even higher.
“It was quite easy.” Leng Qingying stepped forward, her tone revealing no surprise.
The white deer's right hand holds a calligraphy scroll that floats in the air.
She didn't speak, but instead chanted a new spell and recorded it on the screen.
Always ensure that you have three spells available for instant cast.
"Why not let Bai Lu take action directly?" Leng Qingying asked.
“Darkness blocked our vision, and Bai Lu wasn’t experienced enough. In the situation just now, Bai Lu would have been instantly killed as soon as she appeared,” Lu Cang replied simply.
"If Bai Lu is disarmed by the assassin immediately, she won't be able to use her skills."
Leng Qingying nodded. Lu Cang's explanation was easy to understand, and she roughly grasped the situation.
These people are faster than Bai Lu. If they really fight, Bai Lu will definitely be the first to be killed.
Therefore, Lu Cang had no choice but to go out first and break the deadlock.
Finally, when the enemy is routed, call them out to clean up the mess.
"You didn't use your talent ability?" Leng Qingying was naturally referring to the ability to copy.
"Hehe, that's not necessary."
"Besides, this is our trump card. Isn't it normal to keep trump cards hidden?" Lu Cang replied with a faint smile.
They communicate using small groups of people, so people outside can't hear them.
Since the server opened, the only time Lu Cang has used someone else's ability in the wild was to save the fearless warrior by using the Five-Stage Might Slash to speed up the journey.
However, even on that one occasion, Lu Cang deliberately used the camera angle.
Only the fearless one saw it.
Currently, everyone else only knows that Sky's technology is amazing, but they don't know that Sky can use other people's talents.
This information gap will become a very useful trump card.
"OK."
Then, Leng Qingying looked at the flag to the side.
There is a player whose figure gradually reassembles and solidifies from the faint light and shadow.
"That's the S-rank Hidden Void?"
"right."
"If you get close, it's best not to take your eyes off him, or he'll just circle around behind you and slit your throat." Lu Cang briefly explained Yin Kong's talent, while raising his hand to summon a flintlock pistol.
Bang!
-5921
Another shot landed on his head: "With his current damage, you'd be instantly killed if you took a throat cut."
"We'll continue with the dungeon later, but before that, I'll use it to farm some money."
"I'll take 50% of the money from killing Yin Kong, and you can split it 50/50. Any objections?"
Leng Qingying shook her head slightly: "No objection."
The fearless warrior nodded frantically: "No objections, I'll follow the boss's arrangements."
Bai Lu was still singing, but she gave Lu Cang an "OK" sign.
This is already a lot; without Lu Cang, they probably wouldn't have earned this much money at all.
"Alright, you all should also open your field of view and record, so that the Star Gate Guild won't say I'm cheating. Film from multiple angles and see how they try to renege on their promise."
"By the way, stay away, lest he use you to move around."
With that, Lu Cang walked toward the banner of glorious rebirth.
Yin Kong was resurrected once more. He looked at Lu Cang who was walking towards him, his body trembling slightly.
He didn't understand why Lu Cang was still in front of him after his resurrection, and why he wasn't under any protection even after his resurrection.
Logically, resurrection should occur in the safe zone, and players should not kill each other.
He subconsciously looked around, only to see a mess everywhere.
They were all killed? That was the first thought that flashed through his mind.
But immediately afterward, he used an Arc Flash to try and escape!
call!
Lu Cang thrust his spear horizontally.
-2952
When the arc flash was halfway through its attack, it struck the hidden space directly, killing it instantly.
Two seconds later, Yin Kong revived.
After being resurrected, Lu Cang's figure was still before him.
"Hold."
Lu Cang, however, gave a faint smile: "Welcome back."
