Chapter 190 Crossing The Bridge Part 4
He started slashing the opponents apart, swinging his swords to take down an opponent with each slash. The shaking bridge made it harder, but he was easily able to dodge their attacks using the \'Shadow Walk\' skill. With this skill, he was able to dodge whenever he needed to.
He chopped them like vegetables. It didn\'t affect him how much armor they wore. Once touched by his Sword Aura, everything was like passing a hot knife through butter.
He looked at the two Skeleton Knights coming at him with their spears shining in a strange green glow; they were using some skill to increase attack. He waited for one of them to get close before using \'Show Walk\' to disappear and let them pass. Just as it was about to go far, he used \'Phantom Step\' with \'Quick Draw\' and beheaded it, giving it no chance to dodge.
The second Skeleton Knight stopped his mount before Rishi and used the \'Spear Throw\' skill to attack Rishi from far away, but it was his unlucky day as the cooldown for Rishi\'s Shadow Wlak skill had reset, so he used it again and turned into a shadow.
While Rishi was fighting alone on one side, Vinay and Jay were assisting Dev in fighting on the other side. Dev was able to face the opponents, but he was not as agile as Rishi to fight on the bridge. The Skeleton Soldiers were no match for him, but the two Skeleton Knights were making his life miserable.
He was only able to defend against them and hope for the best; he even attacked in between, even succeeding in injuring one of the Skeleton Knights, but the other one helped his companion, and Dev was not able to eliminate it. The battle continued, with neither side having a particular advantage.
The bridge was constantly shaking; the ropes were snapping one after another. Rishi used his chains to support the bridge, but even his chains were cracking under the load.
The poles of the bridge to which the ropes were tied were shaking, and the cracks around them made their hold on the ground very weak. The bridge was about to collapse when Vinay asked Dev to come to the end of the bridge.
Dev used his skills and his whole strength to get as far as he could; he used his momentary skills and dash skills to finally reach ten meters away from the bridge. In a hurry, the wooden block below his leg cracked, and he fell on the bridge. He looked at the horrifying faces of his teammates and was constantly trying to rise up.
Nothing worked, and the opponents were also getting close. When strange hands made up of bones came from below and caught him, he felt a chill all over his body and was about to struggle. He looked at the many attacks coming at him, closed his eyes, and tried to run.
When nothing happened, and he felt a change around him, he looked around and saw that he was before Vinay and Jay. He looked back and saw that in his place was a dumb skeleton that was blasted into pieces by the attacks of the other opponent.
Despite saving Dev, there was not a trace of joy on Vinay\'s face; he was looking at the bridge. He was only able to use his spell when someone was within fifteen meters of him, but Rishi was very far away. He also felt something bad would happen now that Dev had crossed the bridge.
Everyone was looking at the bridge; they saw a figure with multiple weapons floating around him, battling with multiple opponents around him. Even on the shaking bridge, their reflexes and agility of Rishi were just out of the league. With his \'Enhanced Focus\' and \'Sixth Sense\' activated, he was battling opponents, using his surroundings to his advantage.
He was in a very terrible situation as ropes started to snap one after another, making it very hard for Rishi to even maintain his balance. The planks below him were cracking and breaking every second. He needed to change them very fast; the same was not applicable to his opponents. They were standing on some strange green tiles, and when he tried to step on them, his legs went through them.
They acted solid when the Skeleton Soldiers touched them but acted as thin air when Rishi stepped on him; the breaking of the wooden blocks was making it harder for him to move around. He summoned multiple chains to stop the bridge from falling, but his chains were also cracking from time to time. It looked like the weight of the bridge was not light.
Even in such a tough situation, Rishi was somehow able to survive; he used his chains and the bodies of his opponents to move around, swinging the two swords covered in Dark Flame. His attacks were still that lethal; one more problem was that when an enemy was killed, he fell down from the bridge. It looked like these magical green tiles only let the alive skeleton soldiers stand in the air.
It was then that the bridge started to collapse; every rope he touched broke apart. He was still somehow able to balance using his chains, but it was then that he saw a spear shining in a green glow coming at him. He jumped to dodge the attack and held the rope on the other side.
He had just sighed and was about to cough when the rope broke apart. There was a look of disbelief in Rishi\'s eyes when he felt himself falling down. His brain started thinking of ways to survive this crisis.
"Rishab" Dev cried when he saw him falling down from the collapsing bridge; he couldn\'t believe something like this would happen to Rishi. The bridge was alright until he was on it, but just as he stepped out it started collapsing.
"Don\'t worry if it\'s him; I believe he will figure a way to survive," said Vinay. He wanted to comfort others, but even he was not sure how Rishi would come out of this crisis.
All members had sad expressions on their faces; they were praying for a miracle. They also believed that if it was Rishab, he would be able to come out of this situation, but how?
It was then they heard a familiar laugh: "Why are you guys so sad? Has someone died?" They looked around and found none until they heard a strange \'Swiss\' sound.
Their eyes almost popped out at what they saw next. A shadow of a human was coming at them riding some skateboard-like thing. When it came close, they saw that the skateboard was made from joining daggers and swords, and then their eyes moved towards the one riding it.
It was a silver-haired boy with a smile on his face; he winked at them from his mystical purple-colored eyes before coming close. All teammates sighed in relief when they saw that Rishab was alright, but the next moment they felt jealous because he didn\'t want to fly.
"Why does he get all the fun and flashy skills?" complained Lalit. "Have I been born to remain as a side character forever? I am done."
