50: Chapter 50 The Final Blow
Hearing this, the other team captains were stunned for a moment, but then a ruthless light flared in their eyes.
Right!
Chaos!
Only absolute chaos could interfere with Qin Ce's terrifyingly precise predictions and weak point strikes!
"Let's do it!"
"Everyone together! Snatch them!"
"Damn it, let's give it our all!"
Nearly forty people, like a pack of wolves driven into a corner, let out unwilling roars.
No longer caring about tactics or distinguishing targets, they commanded their Pet Beasts to launch frantic, disorganized area-of-effect attacks on every injured or low-health Shadow Monkey in sight!
Fireballs flew everywhere, Wind Blades shot out in all directions, ice shards splattered, and vines danced wildly... a corner of the entire forest was completely transformed into the center of a chaotic energy storm.
The screams of the Shadow Monkeys became even more frequent.
And Qin Ce's success rate for "last-hitting" indeed began to drop significantly under this sudden, irregular, and frantic onslaught.
It dropped from nearly one hundred percent to perhaps only sixty or seventy percent, or even as low as thirty percent.
Often, several Shadow Monkeys would be near death at the same time; with attack lights flashing wildly, even if Qin Ce's Wind Blade was fired, it might be blocked by another attack or hit at the same time as someone else's, causing his finishing blow to miss its mark and be snatched away.
"It's working! It's actually working!" one team member shouted excitedly upon seeing their team successfully snatch the last hit on a Shadow Monkey.
Seeing this, the other teams worked even harder, their attacks becoming increasingly violent and chaotic.
The scales of victory seemed to start tilting slightly toward the side with more people.
Looking down at the crowd whose hope had been rekindled and whose attacks were becoming more frantic, Qin Ce, high in the sky, frowned slightly for the first time.
This strategy of relying purely on numbers and chaos to counter precision was clumsy, but it did indeed limit his "last-hit snatching" efficiency to a certain extent.
He narrowed his eyes slightly, his gaze sweeping over the five teams below caught in a frenzy of snatching kills, then looked at the Shadow Monkey groups wailing in the chaotic attacks, their numbers rapidly dwindling.
If this continued, he would certainly complete his task, but some of his objectives would be greatly compromised, and these people would snatch away a lot of points through sheer luck.
After all, he was the one who had gathered these Shadow Monkeys.
Wouldn't that mean he was the one being taken advantage of instead?
That was not the result he wanted.
His goal had never been just to complete the task, but also to...
Establish dominance!
To tell everyone that provoking him, Qin Ce, came with a price!
He glanced at his task count.
[48/50]
A cold arc once again curled at the corners of Qin Ce's mouth.
He gently patted the neck of the Blue Luan.
"Lì—!"
The Blue Luan let out a piercing cry that could split clouds and shatter stone; the rolling sound waves instantly drowned out all the clamor below!
Immediately after, the Blue Luan's wings flapped violently, and the green light surrounding its body surged abruptly, like burning green flames!
It didn't attack anyone but instead carried Qin Ce and soared sharply toward the higher sky, increasing the distance from the battlefield below.
Simultaneously, an indescribable pressure carrying a vast and ancient aura, mixed with pure and majestic wind-attribute energy, radiated outward from the Blue Luan like invisible ripples, booming across the vast forest below!
The Mythic Talent Nine-fold Azure Sky was pushed to its limit by Qin Ce for the first time. This high-level talent, far exceeding the current stage, activated the bloodline pressure of the Blue Luan as a descendant of the divine bird, the Blue Luan.
An ancient... perception, resonance, and guidance were released in a mysterious way.
This wasn't an attack, but a higher level of "driving away" and "deterrence," a kind of... pressure and summons originating from the essence of life and elemental control!
The effect was immediate and far beyond anyone's imagination!
"Lì!"
The Blue Luan let out another clear and impassioned cry that seemed to pierce the soul. Then, countless Wind Blades followed the cry, exploding over the forest like invisible thunder. Rolling green light washed out from the Blue Luan as the center, and the mysterious energy fluctuations actually caused the movements of the team members attacking chaotically below to freeze in unison, their Soul Power circulation becoming momentarily sluggish.
All the Pet Beasts, regardless of type or attribute, couldn't help but shrink back, looking up in uncertainty and fear at the majestic green figure high in the sky; it was an instinctive awe originating from the level of life itself.
Immediately after, those countless Wind Blades, mixed with ancient pressure and extremely condensed wind spiritual power, swept over the entire forest like a tide.
"Boom, boom, boom, boom!"
"Zhi zhi—!"
"Ao ao—!"
"Ga—!"
In an instant, screams more frequent and terrified than when Qin Ce was gathering the monsters erupted from every corner of the chaotic forest below!
Not just the injured Shadow Monkeys being besieged, but all the Shadow Monkeys hidden deep in the woods, rock crevices, and nests—even those never discovered by the teams before—all scrambled frantically out of their hiding places like cats whose tails had been stepped on!
The grayish-brown monkey shadows were like ants from a disturbed nest, densely packed, forming several even larger torrents of fleeing creatures!
They no longer had any desire to attack; only the purest, most instinctive fear and the urge to escape remained.
Those few bronze low-grade minor leaders roared, trying to maintain order, but under the omnipresent pressure and spiritual power disturbance, they couldn't even protect themselves and fled in panic among the monkey swarm.
As far as the eye could see, the forest seemed to have "come alive" as countless Shadow Monkeys leaped and sprinted through the canopy, fleeing for their lives away from the Blue Luan and this area!
"This... this is..." A team captain below was dumbfounded, even forgetting to attack.
"He drove away all the monkeys!" a team member's voice trembled, their face pale as they pointed at the monkey shadows receding like a tide in all directions.
This scene was too shocking!
Qin Ce could not only gather the monkey swarm but could even scare off all the Shadow Monkeys that had already gone into a blood-frenzied battle!
When those Wind Blades fell, everyone present discovered that the attacks of each Wind Blade were not fatal.
After all, how strong could a black iron rank area-of-effect attack be?
However, combined with that aura and pressure from the Blue Luan's top-tier bloodline essence...
...it caused the flight of all the fierce beasts.
This method of turning clouds into rain with a flip of the hand...
What kind of control was this?
What kind of deterrence was this?
The five teams had previously been smug about barely countering Qin Ce's "precise monster-snatching" with their "chaotic attacks," but now it was as if a bucket of ice water had been poured over them from head to toe. The heat in their hearts was instantly extinguished, leaving only bone-chilling cold and a sense of absurdity.
They had fought tooth and nail, only to compete for that "portion" of Shadow Monkeys that Qin Ce had gathered.
And now, with one cry, Qin Ce had directly "cleared out" the Shadow Monkey reserves of the entire forest!
How could they compete now? How could they snatch anything?
He had directly flipped the table!
No, he had taken all the food in the entire cafeteria, along with the stove itself!
