Chapter 467: Chapter 467
Du You singled out an archer as his target. There were two archers: one was their deputy captain, and the other a regular member. Without any hesitation, Du You chose the regular member.
This was because the Soul Snatching Eyes had a success rate, unlike the Death Raid skill.
The deputy captain might be of a higher level than him, so the Soul Snatching Eyes might fail, or even backlash. Therefore, he chose the one with lesser power. But even so, that person was still a hunter.
The archer at the back faced the Ghost Pattern Crow and the scene in his eyes changed. Everything around him disappeared and the only thing he could see was the Ghost Pattern Crow. Its two big eyes were getting bigger and were filled with a strange look.
In reality, the archer suddenly stiffened and became expressionless. The next moment, a ring of light enveloped him and sent him out of this test world.
"What’s going on, why did that unnamed guy suddenly disappear?"
They formed a team temporarily, so they had not yet informed each other their names. But one of them had disappeared so quickly.
"It’s an instant kill spell. Everyone, be careful." The deputy captain changed his expression. The opponent attacked the archer. So he, who was charging at the front, wondered if he would be the next.
The knight captain, who had already reached the front, urged his griffin to turn around and lunged at the Ghost Pattern Crow with his spear.
But due to its property, the Ghost Pattern Crow’s body was flickering with illusions, resulting in the spear not hitting its vital parts, but only piercing its wings. The knight captain sneered, preparing to tear the Ghost Pattern Crow to shreds.
But what he did not know was that this Ghost Pattern Crow was not a normal creature. It did not exhibit any emotional changes even when it was seriously injured, nor would it feel any pain.
Under Du You’s command, the Ghost Pattern Crow launched the Bloodthirsty Feather Arrow with its remaining wing.
But this time, it did not aim at the knight captain. In the previous attack, the knight captain was untouched, and was also the one who blocked the most arrows despite being at the very front. The captain’s Dou Qi was too strong.
Because they were close to each other this time, and the knight captain totally didn’t expect that he would launch an attack on his own griffin, it was already too late for him to protect his mount, the griffin, when he had just burst into a rage and shattered the Ghost Pattern Crow with his Dou Qi.
A lot of arrows pierced all over the griffin. Even though the arrows were weak, this underestimation of power was relative. After all, it was a powerful 10-star pet and had certain limit to how weak its attack was.
Almost immediately, the Bleeding Curse was triggered and the griffin turned into a blood gourd. Although it hadn’t died yet, it became powerless and began to fall towards the ground.
The knight captain cursed, but there was nothing he could do. He could only try to control the griffin, figure out a way to land safely, and then dispel the griffin’s curse. If the wound couldn’t be healed, he probably wouldn’t be able to play a big role in the upcoming battle. In such a short time, three out of thirteen of them had fallen.
This also included a powerful knight captain. How could this spellcaster be so terrifying? Even the pets were so powerful.
However, Du You’s circumstances were not much better, he was even more vexed because after the death of the Ghost Pattern Crow and the tearing apart of the Thunder Doppelganger, there was still a certain cooldown time.
Although there was no official cooldown time for this ability, the burden on himself was too high. Xiaozi could not use this again before her body was recovered. At this time, somehow, a gust of wind blew among the group of enemies.
The next moment, the speed of the Air Knights, who were originally slower than them, suddenly increased a lot.
In the blink of an eye, the distance between the two sides became very close.
The deputy captain drew his bow, but the bowstring was empty, nothing was inside.
As the deputy captain released the bowstring, Du You felt a sense of crisis.
In the nick of time, Du You released the Shield Spell, fully protecting his side, but he was still a little bit late. There was an inexplicable explosion in the void, and Xiaozi’s wing was injured on the spot.
Having lost the power of one wing for flight, Xiaozi could no longer fly and began to plunge. It was just a while ago when they knocked the enemies down, now it was their turn.
Because the distance between the two sides was too far, it was not easy for Du You’s spell to hit the enemy. Before landing, Du You waved his hand and released a black fog. This was the spell that could fly the furthest.
The black fog integrated into the air and diluted instantly, making it difficult to see. At this moment, Du You was falling continuously from the sky, and he didn’t have time to care about the others anymore. "Stabilize it for me. It would be humiliating if both of us died from falling."
Xiaozi complained, trying hard to spread her injured wing as wide as possible. Even though she couldn’t fly, she still could land steadily.
Behind him, the deputy captain drew his bow again, intending to continue the pursuit. However, he suddenly felt pain on his body. Looking down, a group of black insects had started to bite him unknowingly. Some of them even crawled into his Pegasus.
Suddenly, a bright ring appeared. He had not been sent away, but his Pegasus was. The judgment was that the Pegasus had died. But why was it sent away? It was exactly in the middle of the battle.
This attack was not launched. Because of the disappearance of his mount, the deputy captain suddenly fell from the sky.
Before he fell to the ground, the deputy captain was sent away by the bright ring, leaving behind just two elegant and dirty words.
"Four now, we have to kill him today, or the name of the Ares Academy Air Force will be ruined." Who would have thought that a mere spellcaster would be so troublesome? Is this guy really not an Air Knight?
At this time, Xiaozi finally landed, but the landing was not stable. Du You did not have any riding skills and was thrown off, crashing violently onto the ground. Finally, he hit a tree head-first. If not for his strong body and the protective shield of the Demon Guardian Amulet, he might have been severely injured or dead. Thıs content belongs to 𝘯𝘰𝘷𝘦𝘭•𝘧𝘪𝘳𝘦•𝘯𝘦𝘵
Despite that, when Du You stopped, he was terribly messed up. He spat out a mouthful of fresh blood, obviously suffering from internal injuries. Feeling the burning pain in his body, Du You knew that he had fallen into a trap.
At the same time, Du You also felt that Xiaozi’s situation was not good. Even though he couldn’t see her, he was aware of the specific situation. With a thought in his mind, Du You withdrew Xiaozi who was not of much use at the moment, kept her for later use. She could recover quickly in the summoning space.
But before he could adjust himself, the bushes on the opposite side rustled and a familiar figure appeared— it was the knight captain.
"I’m not a match for you in the sky, but do you really think I’m scared of you on the ground?" Du You showed no signs of backing down. Even facing the Air Knight captain, he was confident of a fight.
