The Holy Priest was a scarce resource. In various wars in the previous life, Holy Priests had shone brilliantly. A powerful blessing could significantly enhance the combat effectiveness of a force numbering in the thousands.
Besides strong healing capabilities and sharp awareness, one must also possess exceptional PVP abilities to become a Holy Priest.
Leaders like Qi Zai, Li Li Hua Sha, and Hei Se Tian Tang were all like this.
Brother Qi Zai glanced at his skill list, checking which skills might be useful.
Brother Qi Zai’s calm demeanor made Kuang Shen feel uneasy inside. Could a priest really defeat him? In normal circumstances, he wouldn’t believe it, but the confidence shown by Shui Se Toutou and others made him doubt himself slightly.
“Begin,” said Brother Qi Zai, walking to one end of the arena after preparing himself.
This time he couldn’t afford to lose, or he wouldn’t be able to face the headquarters of Angel Dominion again, becoming a laughingstock among players forever.
Charge!
Kuang Shen roared and charged toward Brother Qi Zai.
Brother Qi Zai started running, cast Pain on Kuang Shen, and then unleashed Holy Smite.
The players below held their breath, watching the fight between the two, afraid to miss any exciting moments. They watched Kuang Shen, whose large frame continuously attacked Brother Qi Zai, and all felt anxious for Brother Qi Zai.
However, Nie Yan and others seemed more relaxed.
“Nie Yan, what flying mount did you get?” Youth Touched by Desire asked in the area chat. Recently, the players of Bull Tribe had been talking the most about Nie Yan’s flying mount.
“Not a flying mount yet, just a dragon egg. I need to hatch it first,” Nie Yan replied. He didn’t know when this Dark Winged Dragon egg would hatch, and after hatching, he would have to level it up, which was really a headache.
“A dragon egg…” Everyone was somewhat surprised. Dragons were extremely rare, and dragonkin were synonymous with immense power. Even the lowest-level dragonkin possessed astonishing strength.
Nie Yan always managed to get rare and precious items, even managing to obtain a dragon egg.
“What kind of dragon egg? Let us see,” Youth Touched by Desire said curiously.
“Let’s discuss it back at the guild headquarters. Too many people here,” Cui Can Dao Guang interjected. Naturally, such things should be kept confidential.
“Have you guys gotten any good stuff recently?” Nie Yan asked. This group of teammates should have been busy as well.
“Desire got an epic-quality staff a few days ago; the attributes are pretty good. We also obtained the blueprint for a magitek cannon during a dungeon run, which has already been given to Wang Feng De Wo Niu. Jiang Nan got a Kodo beast, which made him really happy because it would speed up his leveling.” Cui Can Dao Guang said. Overall, their recent gains were quite good.
“The clues Nie Yan gave us were very useful. They told us where to collect epic and legendary items. I was lucky enough to get an epic-quality staff. Others are still collecting. I heard Bad Kid recently triggered a quest to search for a legendary set and is still working on it,” Youth Touched by Desire said. The clues Nie Yan provided indeed made things much easier for them. The power of these clues would only gradually become evident later.
“Good results,” Nie Yan said. He hadn’t expected the clues he provided to produce effects so quickly. The more epic and legendary equipment they had, the more helpful it would be for them to pursue top-tier professions.
After chatting for a while, besides these things, there were countless other gains. Nie Yan could clearly feel that the Bull Tribe members were rapidly growing stronger. In the near future, they would reach the peak state of their previous life, and some might even achieve new breakthroughs. They would be the masters of future battlefields.
As they were talking, the fight on the stage had already entered a critical phase, and everyone turned their attention back to the arena.
Enrage! Charge!
After a prolonged battle without success, Kuang Shen found that Brother Qi Zai had six control skills, much more than ordinary players. After using three control skills in a row, Kuang Shen was caught off guard, his health reduced to about half by Brother Qi Zai. Finally, he activated Enrage and charged furiously toward Brother Qi Zai.
Flame Strike!
Kuang Shen swung his greatsword and slashed downward toward Brother Qi Zai.
The Flame Strike roared toward its target. Just as it was about to hit, Brother Qi Zai suddenly waved his staff and blinked out of Kuang Shen’s attack range.
Kuang Shen missed his strike and hesitated for a moment before realizing it was the Blink skill!
Blink was an extremely rare skill; among tens of thousands of players, it was unlikely that even one would possess Blink.
Brother Qi Zai blinked behind Kuang Shen and cast Fear Howl from behind him.
Kuang Shen sensed Brother Qi Zai behind him and was just preparing to turn around when a sharp screech pierced his eardrums.
No good, it was Fear Howl.
Kuang Shen was about to activate Mental Defense to resist Brother Qi Zai’s Fear Howl, but it was already too late. No matter how fast a person’s reaction, it couldn’t outpace sound!
Normally, casting Fear Howl had a precursor. During PVPs, players would see the priest’s throat vibrating violently and know he was about to cast Fear Howl. At that point, they could use skills like Mental Defense or Mental Immunity to resist the priest’s Fear Howl.
Unlike ordinary priests, Brother Qi Zai first used Blink to evade Kuang Shen’s line of sight and then cast Fear Howl. By the time Kuang Shen heard the sound of Fear Howl, it was already too late.
Shui Se Toutou, watching from below, smiled slightly. This was the move! During their dungeon runs, they often practiced PVP techniques together. He had been defeated several times by Brother Qi Zai using this exact move. This move was impossible to guard against. Even if you knew it in advance, you’d often still fall victim to it because Brother Qi Zai had mastered it to the point of casting Blink and Fear Howl seamlessly. A regular player encountering such a deadly move for the first time would definitely end up in tragedy.
Unless his immunity skills were as numerous as Nie Yan’s.
Kuang Shen was affected by the fear effect of Fear Howl and uncontrollably ran outward.
Painful Lash!
Brother Qi Zai calmly applied the Painful Lash skill on Kuang Shen. Damage numbers floated up from Kuang Shen’s head: -111, -123…
This was the continuous damage effect of Painful Lash. Brother Qi Zai’s Painful Lash was level five, with a very strong effect and a long duration.
Taking this opportunity, Brother Qi Zai unleashed skill after skill: Holy Explosion!
A light sphere traced an arc through the air and landed on Kuang Shen, exploding with a bang. The powerful explosion forced Kuang Shen’s body to retreat involuntarily.
The fear effect of Fear Howl ended, and Brother Qi Zai felt a slight regret. He had a total of six control skills, including two powerful control skills: Fear Howl and Holy Light Bind, one moderate control skill: Light Shockwave, and three low-tier control skills: Repulsion Aura, Intimidate, and Dispel. Holy Light Bind and Light Shockwave had been used and were now on cooldown. After using these two skills, he no longer had any consecutive control skills.
It was already very difficult for him to control Kuang Shen until now.
Kuang Shen awoke from the control effect, his health now reduced to a thin sliver, around over 800, with continuous lash damage still appearing above his head.
Brother Qi Zai hadn’t allowed Kuang Shen to get close yet, using control skills to continuously restrain Kuang Shen, reducing his health to a sliver. The players were stunned, exclaiming, “What kind of priest is this! He’s even more powerful than a mage!”
The difference between Brother Qi Zai and a mage was that his attack damage was much lower than a mage’s. If an ordinary mage had immobilized Kuang Shen for five or six seconds, a few spells would have already brought Kuang Shen down. Brother Qi Zai had restrained Kuang Shen for a full ten seconds, and although his attack damage hadn’t managed to kill Kuang Shen, the effect was still quite good, as Kuang Shen had already been worn down significantly.
Kuang Shen roared furiously, activating the War God’s Protection skill, ignoring all control effects, his body glowing faintly golden.
“Die!” Kuang Shen crushed toward Brother Qi Zai, swinging his greatsword down at him.
Brother Qi Zai quickly retreated. His Intimidate and Dispel skills had just come off cooldown, but he understood that any control skill he used at this moment would be ineffective. He could only face Kuang Shen’s attack head-on.
If Kuang Shen used skills like Hamstring on him, controlling him for two seconds, he would be finished!
This was the difference between warriors and priests!
A warrior’s attack could easily penetrate a priest’s cloth armor. Even if the priest had tens of thousands of health points, they couldn’t withstand a warrior’s attacks.
Brother Qi Zai cast Holy Light Shield on himself, a white light barrier protecting him. Level six Holy Light Shield!
Holy Light Shields above level five had an effect that prevented limb damage control skills like Hamstring, though they were relatively weak against mental attack control effects.
Kuang Shen slashed, and a damage number of -1582 floated above Brother Qi Zai’s head.
-1158, -1283…
While retreating, Brother Qi Zai continuously cast healing spells on himself, repeatedly restoring his health, only to have it knocked down again. He managed to endure for five seconds. As long as he wasn’t controlled and could cast healing spells on himself, Brother Qi Zai could hold out for a long time.
The players below watched in amazement. What incredible healing! How effective such dense healing would be during boss fights! No wonder Brother Qi Zai could become the top priest of Bull Tribe!
Just after five seconds, the War God’s Protection on Kuang Shen expired.
As Kuang Shen was about to attack again, Brother Qi Zai used Intimidate, forcing Kuang Shen to retreat a few steps, then cast Holy Light Judgment on him.
Kuang Shen’s health had been significantly reduced by Painful Lash, and after taking the Holy Light Judgment, he was sent flying backward and fell to the ground.
This was his third time suffering a humiliating defeat!
