YM778.TV Chapter 559 Trap
\'They\'re smart…\'
Vincent wryly smiled after hearing their conversation.
He must admit that they have really gone overboard in removing the traces of battle they\'ve made… Even the broken trees in the previous battle were covered by a Formation Art so no one would suspect that something was off in the surroundings.
He didn\'t think that being too good at his job would result in being discovered.
\'Fine… Let\'s just start.\'
Since the members of the Creed have discovered a problem, Vincent has to eliminate them immediately. Initially, he wanted to ambush them once they started spreading out or when they put down their guard a little.
However, he can no longer wait as he signaled for everyone to start.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
The five of them immediately pulled the trigger of their rifles as a series of gunshots was heard. Each bullet has Pierce and Swiftness attributes so they are almost an unstoppable force.
With the rifle\'s burst mode, the group of five elites from the Creed of Eiqehin was rained by bullets…
"Great Wyrm Shield!"
The leader of the group activated his Magic Artifact… It was his Vambrace and it\'s capable of producing a huge barrier to cover his whole team…
This is the reason why Vincent wanted them to be scattered before attacking. He knows that at least one of them has a magic tool that can protect the entire team.
Nevertheless, Vincent still smiled seeing how slow their reaction was.
The leader may have set up a defense immediately but the other two people on his team weren\'t so lucky… They have magic that can protect them from immediate danger but it wasn\'t enough to stop the 100+ Pierce Attribute Points in each bullet.
Two of them were on the ground, bleeding…
They were shot in their bodies and wouldn\'t have a hard time returning to the battle.
After a few seconds, the noise of gunshots finally stopped as Vincent\'s group emptied their magazines… Right now, the Leader already has a pale face as he exhausted all his energy to maintain the shield…
He even used the power of corruption to make the bullets brittle since he thought that he might not have a chance to use them. It consumed a lot of his energy making him look really weak…
Nevertheless, his eyes didn\'t lose their light. He\'s still confident of winning… After all, these powerful Mana Arts thrown at them must\'ve consumed plenty of mana as well.
He wasn\'t the only one being drained but also their attackers…
As soon as the attack stopped.
The leader chuckled softly as he glared in the direction of the bullets.
"Hahaha… Now that you\'re exhausted it will be your turn to face the nightmare!"
This was also a signal for his able subordinates to attack…
Dark and eerie miasma suddenly started spreading… It originated from the group of five and this miasma is getting thicker and thicker.
"Die!"
Their eyes started turning red as they push the limits of their abilities.
They weren\'t sure about the condition of their companions and they wanted to see their current situation. They might need quick medical treatment but they had no choice but to attack as they know that the enemies they were facing had come prepared.
They can\'t show any weaknesses at this point.
Whoossh~
They released a dark fog that is slowly creeping up on their enemies. However, all the plants and trees it came into contact with would also start to decay… This is certainly not a normal fog, it is the power of Corruption.
Furthermore, the corruption abilities they\'re using can affect the physical realm to such a degree it\'s completely different from mind corruption that the other group had used against Luna before…
Vincent\'s eyes narrowed as he felt the dangerous threat coming at their side…
"Hmph! Luna, take care of it… All the Celestials will attack after Luna made a path!"
After giving instructions Luna swiftly activated her Bloodstone Armament, the bane of all Corruption Energy users!
Absorb Corruption!
The red light coming from the Bloodstone was like a signal for the dark miasma to stop spreading and move in one direction…
It was all heading toward the bloodstone like they were being sucked in!
This surprised the members of Creed as they haven\'t seen anything like this before. Perhaps, it\'s possible if it was the Patriarch of their Creed doing this…
Normally, people would avoid making contact with this miasma through a Mana Shield, Wind Mana Art, or Magic Tools that specialize in isolation techniques.
However, the one in front of them was charging forcefully at it as if the miasma doesn\'t have any decaying properties…
"T-this… How is she doing this?"
"I can\'t control the miasma… Are they also from the Creed?!"
"Stupid, most of them seem to be Aura Knights… Tsk… Manipulators of the Star Garden can\'t do this…"
"Who are you? Do you know who you\'re messing with?!" The leader asked in anger as his brain started thinking fast to decide their next course of action…
No one answered on their opponent\'s side but their presence remained hiding while the female warrior continued advancing…
Realizing that the Miasma is ineffective, the team leader made another plan…
To escape!
After all, they were ambushed and unsure about the number of enemies and the location of their Automatons. They were at a disadvantage so they can\'t continue lingering here.
At the very least, they have to move out of their encirclement and fight in a different location… No matter what, they believe that their Corruption Abilities would win against any Mana or Soul Cultivators they\'ll meet.
As for the Manipulators, they were even more confident of defeating them since they have Mind Corruption that allows them to stop Manipulators from controlling their Automatons…
"Ugh… I… I can\'t move properly!"
Suddenly, one of them realized something was off and alerted the leader.
As the female warrior in front was nearing them, he tried taking a few steps back so he can retreat faster… However, to his surprise, his movements are slowed, and his senses started declining…
He could previously sense 40 meters in his surroundings but as soon as he tried spreading his senses again, he realized that he can only sense about 15 meters around him!
The leader finally realized that they have truly gone inside a trap!
"It\'s a Turbid Cage Formation Art!"
