Flash Sale! Another Flash Sale! (Substantially Revised Version)
Yang Jian had been awake for over half an hour by then.
He was currently sitting at his desk, watching the chaotic battle outside Zhenhai City on his computer.
He watched the live stream while feeling the changes in his body.
Name: Yang Jian
Description: Preliminary adaptation to Abyssal energy has been completed! The stronger the power in the salvation world, the more Abyssal Essence will be required. His body has adapted to the Abyssal Essence modification, and he can directly absorb it next time! Enhancement progress: 0.01%
Remarks: Only now has the first step truly been taken!
Note: As your game character's strength increases, the enhancement progress may regress!
Note 2: 0.01% is the limit of the data, not your limit!
Yang Jian could understand the meaning behind it; this progress was simply the power gap between his external body and Tianmu Zhenjun!
The stronger the game character Tian Mu Zhenjun became, the lower the percentage would be!
Although it was only a mere three hundred points of Abyssal Essence, Yang Jian felt much stronger than before!
He shifted his attention to the TV; the live stream showed a lively battle in Zhenhai City!
He also noticed that Xia Nation was gradually falling into a disadvantage.
This was, in fact, unavoidable.
The players in Zhenhai City were mostly ordinary casual players.
Their talents, awareness, levels, and equipment were all somewhat inferior to the enemy's.
While the main force of the Star Palace was not weak, their numbers were too small after all!
In this low-level era, it was difficult to form an overwhelming advantage; it was a battle of will!
Since it was difficult to form an overwhelming advantage, the allied forces naturally suffered heavy casualties as well!
Let's check the comments!
"I'm watching... it seems we're at a bit of a disadvantage?"
"Damn it, are they bullying us because we're outnumbered?"
"Where is Chang'an City's support team? I'm a level 12 warrior, self-funded support, looking for a large group to join!"
"Jinling City, level 13 Discipline Priest seeking a group!"
"Team formed, preparing to advance to Zhenhai City... So excited!"
"By the way, why aren't the high-ranking members of the Star Palace making a move? Didn't they say they were very strong?"
"Same question!"
"Same question + 1"
"Same question + 10086"
Alright... it seems it's time to make a move. It's time to let them experience what an overwhelming advantage feels like!
He picked up the cup on the table, intending to take a sip of water!
But he accidentally crushed the water cup... Oh dear... what a mess!
The office and bedroom renovations were done without any cutting corners.
Although Yang Jian's movements were a bit heavy, and the entire office resounded with thuds, there was no sign of damage.
After all, his improvements weren't much yet... there wasn't a sudden surge of thousands or tens of thousands of times his power!
Plains outside Zhenhai City.
The allied forces, with 33 large groups and over 13,000 people, fought against Xia Nation's 25 large groups, but failed to gain an overwhelming advantage!
On one hand, it was the first group battle, and everyone was thoroughly enjoying it!
Those who snatched the first batch of game slots, apart from the allocations given to the Four Great Nations, were mostly die-hard gamers.
What's there to fear in a group battle?
What's there to fear in death?
Life and death are but fleeting thoughts; if you're not convinced, then fight!
They were passionate enough, but they didn't really listen to commands!
Commands?
What commands are needed for a group battle?
Brothers, just go for it!
Zhou Yue was the first to see Yang Jian's online status!
The moment she saw the message, she felt a little regretful.
I haven't even joined yet, and you're already online?
However, she didn't have time to delay.
Zhou Yue transformed into a bolt of lightning and landed in a densely packed area of the allied forces' formation.
Frost Nova, Ice Shard, Blizzard!
The players in this area were at least several hundred meters from the city wall, and hunters were guarding against rogue ambushes.
But they never imagined that a mage would cut through their backline!
The person in charge of Little Japan bore the brunt of the full damage and immediately fell to the ground, dead!
The commotion in the allied forces' rear quickly attracted everyone's attention.
After all, Zhou Yue's spell range was a bit exaggerated!
Not only were the allied forces, who were suddenly stunned, bewildered, but even the Xia Nation people watching the live stream felt it was a bit absurd!
Is this range cheating?
Within a circular area with a diameter of one hundred yards, all allied players were instantly frozen.
Then, blizzards within the frozen area began to mercilessly pelt these players.
"Quick, the combat log shows 'Yueyin Qingya,' the Vice Guild Leader of the Star Palace has appeared! Kill her!"
"I can't move!"
"That's not right, she's not even channeling the spell, why is the blizzard still falling?"
"Damn it, all the damage I'm taking is critical hits! What's going on?"
Slow, Freeze, Frostbite, Damage Stacking!
Soon, within this area, the health of an entire large group of players was almost wiped out.
All the healers in this area were trapped by the freezing effect and couldn't heal.
Fortunately, healers from other surrounding teams quickly started throwing healing spells towards this area.
"Quick, healers keep up, watch the main group's health, warriors charge, ranged attacks! Can't we take down just one of her with so many of us?"
Although she dealt massive damage, as long as the healers still had mana, she couldn't achieve too much effective killing.
The bustling world chat went silent for a moment.
Freedom of America: How did he get there? Going to the far rear alone, is he suicidal?
King Arthur: Heh heh, I wouldn't be so arrogant. I want to see what the former second strongest is truly made of now.
GOTA: My name is so cool, yet I wouldn't dare be so reckless!
...Let's look at what others are saying!
There were those who anticipated, those who watched, and even more who were sarcastic and mocking!
With the commotion in the rear, the allied forces' rhythm was somewhat disrupted.
"Everyone be careful, that Vice Guild Leader of the Star Palace has made her move!"
"One person making a move? Don't be ridiculous, with so many of us, why would we be afraid of him?"
Although Zhou Yue didn't achieve the desired outcome, the significant loss of firepower and the shift in healing focus tilted the scales of victory considerably towards the Xia Nation players.
"Quick, backline hunters, Hunter's Mark, focus fire! Charge her..."
With two to three tens of thousands of people clashing passionately on the battlefield, area-of-effect damage of Zhou Yue's caliber could greatly influence the battle!
This Little Japan commander is so noisy!
A flash of lightning, and Zhou Yue disappeared. The warriors who were halfway through their charge lost their target and awkwardly stopped in place.
"Is this a flash? This is teleportation, isn't it? Where's the GM? Where's the Great Goddess Nuwa? Where's that administrator named Aunar? Someone's hacking here!"
When Zhou Yue reappeared, she landed in the center of the Little Japan's main group.
Frost Nova, Extreme Cold Storm... an ice ball, unseen by others, was released, carrying a chilling aura as it flew forward.
Spinning ice spikes were rapidly shot from the ice ball, attacking all hostile players within its range!
"She's alone, spread out, ranged attacks!"
"It's no good, so many attacks are missing! Damn it, I saw them hit her, how could they miss?"
"Mine are all 'missed' too!"
"Spread out, don't group up. Warriors keep charging her! As long as we can stall her for a moment, she can't escape!"
"Drain her mana, I want to see if her magic points are infinite!"
Zhou Yue disdainfully curled her lips!
The Little Japan commander's face was very dark.
So many people, surrounded by one woman, what a true humiliation!
"She's out of mana..."
"Quick! Continue the siege!"
Zhou Yue flashed, a white light appearing at the outermost edge of the battlefield.
Cast: Awaken!
A deep blue whirlwind enveloped Zhou Yue's body. By the time the hostile players rushed over, her mana bar was already full!
At this moment, the players watching the live stream and those spectating as corpses were all dumbfounded!
Zhou Yue's series of actions left both allied and enemy players utterly bewildered.
The intensity of the front-line battle visibly decreased.
Originally, some Xia Nation players wanted to flank the rear, but now they didn't want to go anymore!
With that attack range and those attack methods, it was indiscriminate explosive damage!
If they were killed by an enemy, it would be bad luck, but if they were killed by her, what would that be?
A reward from the Goddess?
By the way... are we really playing the same game?
Zhou Yue's mobility and area damage are practically a national war trump card!
Within a minute of entering the battlefield, Zhou Yue, like a black hole, attracted all eyes... various fan groups for Zhou Yue sprang up like mushrooms after rain!
All the fan clubs were being established at lightning speed... In the small conference room of Xia Nation's official headquarters.
"Now, taking Zhou Yue as the hypothetical enemy, do we have any solutions?"
The Fifth Elder posed a test question on the spot.
All six people frowned deeply.
Team Leader Chen, as the leader of the combat group, could only speak first!
"She's definitely not an ordinary mage class; she should be a hidden class, or even an advanced class! This teleportation skill is practically cheating, and what's more, the Blizzard, which is clearly a channeled spell, doesn't require channeling... Currently, there's insufficient information, and it seems like there's no other way to defeat her except to overwhelm her with sheer numbers!"
"To fight her, we need enough healers! And we need to kill her before the healers run out of mana!"
Not only Xia Nation was watching, but the other Four Great Nations were also watching this first major melee in salvation!
United States Department of Homeland Defense and Strategic Assurance!
"BOSS, can we use external..."
Before the word 'tactics' could be uttered, the white, burly man who suggested it blinked, unable to recall what he had just intended to say!
His BOSS rolled his eyes.
If I could use external tactics, would I still spend so much money to incite those useless people to resist Xia Nation?
Wouldn't I keep that money for myself and make up the accounts?
By the way, this world will is so annoying. You called for help, and we know about it, isn't that enough?
It's not like we're not saving you, so why are you still setting restrictions for us?
You say, when such a person appears among the populace, how passive are we?
The crucial thing is, she appeared among the populace of Xia Nation... It's impossible to let Zhou Yue act so recklessly!
Little Japan could only send out their ace.
When Zhou Yue teleported to another part of the battlefield, just as she was about to unleash a combo and leave,
She felt a sharp attack coming from behind her.
Mana Shield!
Absorb, -103.
Zhou Yue frowned.
That one strike dealt quite high damage!
Her Mana Shield could absorb 1000 points of damage!
One must know that as a mage, wearing a full set of level 30 purple equipment, she only had over 1500 health!
This guy's attack was quite high!
Combat Log: Player Sakura First Sword Saint's Ambush (Drawing Slash) dealt 103 damage to you.
It's him? This guy actually came?
Seeing Zhou Yue entangled by the Little Japan Sword Saint, the morale of the allied forces immediately soared.
"I originally intended to deal with Tianmu Zhenjun, but you are also a respectable opponent!"
The Little Japan held his sword with both hands, horizontally across his chest.
"Prepare to suffer..."
Before he could utter the word 'death,'
He took a Shadow Strike · Claw Attack to his backside!
The opponent had just intended to swing his sword back, but before he could even turn around, he fell to the ground, dead!
Everyone who was constantly monitoring the situation was stunned!
Is this really Little Japan's hidden trump card?
Seeing Mo Song, Zhou Yue knew that Yang Jian had arrived on the battlefield.
Immediately, she no longer paid attention to the fallen Sakura First Sword Saint.
She began to choose her next group of victims!
With Zhou Yue's activity, the allied forces' tactics had to change.
Firstly, scattered positioning was a must; standing too close together was just giving her free kills.
Secondly, Yueyin Qingya's attacks carried extremely high bonus damage.
Freeze and Burn almost always applied bonus damage with every attack!
This required healers to frantically spam heals... Although her output had many misses and few hits, after fighting for so long, she had still lost more than half of her health.
They kept feeling that with a little more effort, they could take her down... Secondly, the Xia Nation team also had a huge headache.
Zhou Yue was having a blast, but even with the advantage, the other large groups didn't dare to push too hard!
They were afraid that Goddess Yue's AOE would take them out too!
So, at the battlefield's intersection, after killing the allied forces' front line,
The Xia Nation players didn't dare to step forward to help out!
They only dared to watch Zhou Yue show off from afar... Zhou Yue was indeed very strong, but at this low level, the distance hadn't been completely opened up yet.
As both sides on the front line ceased fighting, the allied forces also had the intention of concentrating fire on her!
In one minute, her health had dropped to half.
Just as the allied forces felt victory was within reach, and the Little Japan commander had even stood up from playing dead, ready to enjoy victory,
With a teleport, Zhou Yue appeared on the city wall.
Although Xia Mingwei was a Protection Paladin, that didn't mean she couldn't use healing magic!
"Divine Shield!"
A golden light fell on Zhou Yue's head, and she immediately revived to full health... At this, the previously bustling battlefield became so quiet you could hear a pin drop!
Coach, they're cheating!
Zhou Yue didn't care what the other side thought!
She was really getting into the swing of things today... She secretly vowed,
If I don't beat the crap out of you today, then you must be really clean... Zhou Yue was indeed very strong, but dealing with such a dispersed army was still too much trouble and effort!
The key was that she lacked the ability to directly kill people!
Standing on the city wall, Zhou Yue saw Yang Jian in the crowd.
Not having fought enough, she pouted. It seemed her moment of glory was over.
Then she looked at the annoying Little Japan commander.
She flashed and teleported to his face, calmly unleashing a Fire Blast onto his face!
The Little Japan commander didn't even struggle and fell to the ground, dead, once again.
Zhou Yue picked up the equipment he dropped and flashed away, disappearing... When she reappeared, she was already back on the city wall.
Zhou Yue's sudden withdrawal left the spectators and live stream viewers stunned!
What happened? Weren't you full health and mana again? Why aren't you fighting?
There are still so many people down there!
Sakura First Sword Saint, standing in the graveyard, looked at the combat log... [Ding, you were hit by Mo Song, Tianmu Zhenjun's pet's Shadow Strike · Claw Attack, dealing..., you have died!]
The Little Japan muttered to himself: "Damn it... I can't even beat his dog?"
Impossible, I was careless just now, I didn't dodge!
I don't believe it!
I don't believe it... Sakura First Sword Saint's soul returned to the battlefield, watching the chaotic battle from another dimension.
With Mo Song and Zhou Yue joining the battle, the allied forces could no longer suppress the front-line tank classes.
Xia Nation's tanks' pressure greatly reduced, and they began to counterattack frantically.
Finding a place he thought was safe, the Little Japan chose to revive!
On the current battlefield, healing spells were flying everywhere.
Players from the same team basically targeted whoever had low health!
The Sword Saint's health was full within three seconds of standing up!
He was just about to go looking for trouble with Mo Song.
An arrow, flying from who knows where, struck him!
-17450.
The Sword Saint, who had been up for less than five seconds, fell again!
Everyone finally understood!
There's another master?
