Just when everyone thought that both the Dark Succubus and Duo Duo behind her would be struck by the Judgment Triple Slash, Duo Duo calmly cast a shield on the Dark Succubus. Suddenly, countless white bones flew in from all directions, rapidly forming a white bone shield in front of the Dark Succubus.
Boom! Boom! Boom! The Judgment Triple Slash struck the bone shield in front of the Dark Succubus. The Dark Succubus merely stepped backward a few paces, while the bone shield in front of her remained intact.
Shui Setou’s expression turned serious. He couldn’t identify what kind of protective spell this bone shield was, but its defensive power was astonishingly strong.
At the very moment the Dark Succubus blocked Shui Setou’s attack, Duo Duo raised her staff. A mass of dark magical elements quickly gathered at the tip of her staff.
Nightmare Curse!
Shui Setou was preparing to attack when suddenly a surge of dark energy flowed onto his body. Instantly, he felt a bit dizzy.
It’s a curse!
Curses are instant-cast spells. Unless players have previously used skills to defend against curses, they generally cannot avoid such attacks. Fortunately, curses are typically not strong control abilities. Players affected by curses will only suffer certain negative effects but won’t be in life-threatening situations.
This curse cannot be removed within five seconds!
Shui Setou didn’t stop moving his body. He charged forward, swinging his greatsword at Duo Duo.
Since becoming a Barbarian Berserker, Shui Setou’s body was filled with solid muscles, giving him astonishing strength. He believed the Dark Succubus absolutely couldn’t withstand his power. As long as he could reach Duo Duo, no matter how powerful the dark priestess was, she wouldn’t withstand two attacks from a Barbarian Berserker.
At that moment, the Dark Succubus in front of him suddenly split into two, then into four, then into eight, increasing in numbers rapidly.
Shui Setou was greatly alarmed. What kind of skill was this? He had never seen it before!
What was going on with these succubi!
Shui Setou roared furiously, knocking aside three Dark Succubi. When he looked forward, Duo Duo was nowhere to be seen.
Damn it! Shui Setou couldn’t help but curse. These skills were too bizarre; it was the first time he had ever encountered them. He roared again, unleashing a Whirlwind Slash that sent five Dark Succubi flying.
Divine Vision!
A ray of white divine light shone from Shui Setou’s eyes. He thought all the succubi were illusions and wanted to use Divine Vision to see through them. But he was wrong. These Dark Succubi were real, while Duo Duo had completely disappeared from sight.
The players outside the arena were also greatly alarmed because they couldn’t see where Duo Duo had gone from the sidelines! It seemed as though he had vanished into thin air.
Duo Duo’s tactics were probably something many players had never encountered. A long time ago, he had been inspired by Nie Yan and developed a strong interest in special items. He began studying various unique items of the Dark faction and eventually devised some tactics unimaginable to ordinary players.
Combining the ordinary Summon Succubus spell with the Ring of Duplication and possession skills had become an effective PVP tactic.
After players summon a creature, they can use the Ring of Duplication to create an identical copy of the original. The higher the level of the summoned creature, the more mana is required for duplication. The reason Duo Duo chose the Succubus as his summoned creature was because of their relatively low level, allowing him to duplicate them almost infinitely. After creating a large number of Succubi, Duo Duo used a possession skill to take over one of them. While continuously duplicating, he kept casting curses on Shui Setou.
Although Shui Setou had skills to remove curses, they could only provide temporary relief. Against an endless stream of curses, he was still helpless.
If it were a conventional battle, with Shui Setou’s skill level, he wouldn’t be in such a difficult position. Duo Duo had precisely calculated this and started the fight by taking the initiative with unexpected tactics. These minor tricks might seem trivial, but at this moment, he had no choice but to use them to deal with a few opponents first, saving his true strength for later!
This tactic wasn’t invincible either and had certain flaws. It might not be effective in real battlefield situations, but in a PVP arena, it was unbeatable.
Earth Splitting Slash!
Shui Setou roared furiously, sending five or six Succubi flying. He kept unleashing various area-of-effect damaging skills. However, each Succubus had a bone shield cast upon it. Previously, they were very fragile and could be instantly killed with a single strike, but now they had become extremely resilient, requiring multiple hits to eliminate. At the same time, he was continuously hit by over a dozen restrictive curses, causing a significant reduction in his attributes.
Tang Yao, who was watching from the sidelines, couldn’t help but furrow his brow. The fact that Duo Duo used such an unconventional fighting method was indeed rare, yet there seemed to be no effective way to counter this tactic. On a real battlefield, if encountering an unbeatable strategy, one could simply run away and wait for the enemy’s skills to cool down, naturally breaking their strategy. However, this was a PVP arena, which was different.
“Duo Duo is planning to hide his true strength and use unconventional methods to wear us down first, then engage us with his real power,” said Cui Can Daoguang beside him. He had figured out Duo Duo’s intentions. Thinking about it, it was extremely difficult for anyone to face their nine-man team in a series of duels without suffering a single defeat. If there was anyone who could accomplish this, it would probably be Nie Yan at his peak. For anyone else, it was almost impossible.
Duo Duo had no other choice. If he were to lose, the morale of Angel’s Descent would suffer a heavy blow, and they would lose their reputation forever. To defeat players like Cui Can Dao and others, he had no choice but to hide his true strength as much as possible in the early matches. The more he revealed, the faster he would lose! Therefore, he was forced to adopt such a tactic.
Although Duo Duo used some unconventional methods, Tang Yao, Cui Can Daoguang, and others watching from the sidelines noticed something unique. During the duel, Duo Duo remained calm and composed, precisely timing his skill usage. Thinking back to how he calmly summoned the succubi, skillfully using bone shields and curses, his true strength must be formidable. If he were wielding his familiar staff, even in a direct confrontation, Shui Setou might not necessarily be his match!
It’s worth noting that such unconventional tactics required more skill. The fact that Duo Duo could defeat an expert like Shui Setou using unconventional techniques itself demonstrated his proficiency. If it were an ordinary player, they might not even finish casting their skills before being eliminated by Shui Setou.
Shui Setou continuously suffered from numerous curses, his health gradually reduced to less than half. However, the current predicament didn’t completely shake his confidence. His gaze swept across the numerous succubi around him, and his sharp eyes locked onto one succubus far away.
His eyes suddenly blazed with determination as he roared furiously and charged forward!
Boom! Boom! Boom! The five or six succubi blocking Shui Setou’s path were sent flying as he charged through. Shui Setou’s fierce charge startled Duo Duo, who was possessing one of the succubi, causing him to panic. Wow, he actually found me.
Duo Duo immediately used a possession removal skill. With a bang, the succubus was sent flying backward by Shui Setou’s impact.
Duo Duo reappeared, waving his staff to cast Shadow Bind.
Wrath of the Celestials!
Shui Setou roared, and divine light radiated from his body. A giant resembling a celestial deity appeared behind him. Shui Setou’s body, as if blessed by a divine presence, suddenly grew much larger.
Unexpectedly, despite being hit by over a dozen curses, this guy could still be this fierce, breaking through his previous tactics. As Shui Setou seemed about to go berserk, Duo Duo sighed deeply, realizing that using minor tricks wouldn’t be enough to defeat an expert of Shui Setou’s caliber. He had no choice but to give it his all.
Lich Form!
Duo Duo waved his staff, and his robe flared out. A dark, decaying force instantly spread out, and his body slowly floated to about half a meter above the ground.
Hand of Combustion!
Duo Duo roared furiously, and a giant hand engulfed in black flames appeared out of nowhere, grabbing toward Shui Setou.
Seeing the giant hand coming straight at him, Shui Setou let out a deep growl and charged head-on into the hand.
With a loud boom, the ground shook violently, and the succubi around were sent flying outward like broken kites.
The players watching from the sidelines changed expressions dramatically. What level of battle was this? The skills these two were using were simply too terrifying!
However, it was understandable. As a top-tier player from the Bull Tribe, Shui Setou often joined the elite team in various high-level dungeons. Duo Duo, as the leader of Angel’s Descent, also had an impressive foundation. Their depth of skills was astonishing, so it was normal for them to possess some extraordinary abilities.
Previously, when Duo Duo used the succubus tactic, the players all thought Shui Setou was doomed to lose. However, who would have thought that Shui Setou could, in a desperate situation, deduce Duo Duo’s real body’s location through the subtle clues after his possession, launching a counterattack that turned the tide. This level of insight was truly admirable.
Although Shui Setou launched a powerful counterattack, trying to get close to Duo Duo, he had already lost a significant amount of health earlier, making him like a strong bowstring stretched to its limit. Normally, he should avoid direct confrontation for a while to recover his health. However, facing the incoming Hand of Combustion, he had no way to dodge.
Shui Setou endured the heavy blow, retreating five or six steps, with a damage number of over 30,000 floating above his head.
His health, originally close to 200,000, was now reduced to only 50,000 left. After suffering another heavy strike, he had no choice but to bet everything on one last move!
Shui Setou’s sharp gaze locked onto the distant Duo Duo.
Duo Duo wasn’t planning to give Shui Setou any opportunity. He cast another Hand of Combustion skill, and the giant hand engulfed in black flames came crashing down, seemingly attempting to kill Shui Setou on the spot. The massive fiery hand, like a dark cloud, dimmed the light above Shui Setou’s head.
A powerful oppressive force descended from above, making Shui Setou feel as if suddenly burdened with hundreds of pounds of weight, unable to move even a single step.
Die! A cold smile appeared on Duo Duo’s lips.
