God-level Hero

Chapter 1303 - 1212: No Matter What, I Must Take One Down

Amidst the smoke and dust of the battlefield, the Blood Eagle successfully broke through the large hole in the ceiling and made its escape. It must be said that Da Fei truly has to thank Chacham for taking the road less traveled. Otherwise, the Blood Eagle would have had no confidence in passing over the God-level Giant Monster and the NPC army trailing behind.

As for Moon God Night’s battle, the Blood Eagle can’t help and shouldn’t help. The Blood Eagle is Da Fei’s trump card and cannot be exposed to any player, especially not in front of the US Empire players, not to mention the Divine Artifact carried in its pouch.

...

At this moment, within the U.S. Supernova Combat Command Center, a new battle had just begun.

Even though Player 8 had long been wary of the mysterious figure following him, the sudden appearance of around a dozen ghost-like entities almost killed him instantly. At the critical moment, Player 8 transformed into a bat and released thick smoke to escape the encirclement.

Meanwhile, two other players transformed into Fallen Angel forms also blocked the assassin from two directions within the tunnel network. The assassin missed his attack and immediately fled through a nearby tunnel side-path.

Fortson said in a deep voice, "Is it NPC?"

Tommy replied, "Judging from the System Prompt’s battle information, it shouldn’t be a player."

Fortson said in a deep voice, "There are items in the game that can disguise as NPCs, keep confirming!"

Tommy: "Yes, sir! Players 15, 13, and 2, transform and pursue!"

"All team members, avoid confronting the enemy’s ghost troops!"

"Received!"

At that moment, Moon God Night was frustrated and sweating. The blow he was so confident would surely hit failed to kill the enemy, which Moon God Night found hard to accept! The speed of the opponent’s reflex arc had already surpassed the limits of regular professional players’ reactions—could that only be attributed to genius?

Even South Korea, with a population of only 50 million, could screen talented high-IQ children through well-developed educational mechanisms, let alone the more tech-savvy United States. One could already imagine that this entire Special Action Group consisted of a bunch of super geniuses.

Finally meeting the American Team was achieved; they are indeed very strong!

At this moment, Moon God Night felt deeply disappointed. In childhood, he was also an award-winning math prodigy skipping grades with high IQ. Unfortunately, no matter how excellent one might be as a child, growing up seemed not to bring more success than average people. Let alone running towards thirty, judging by actual e-sports skill, he might only rate as a second-tier professional player.

So now, Moon God Night needed to consider whether, as a second-tier player, he could retreat completely from the siege of these genius kids. Maybe he could save himself, but his troops might have to be sacrificed.

Unbearable! The thing Moon God Night hated most was seeing the self-confident, energetic faces of genius kids! The more he encounters such brats, the stronger his disappointment and darkness grow, and he desires to ruin them even more! No matter what, he has to leave some mental scars on them as they grow!

However, facing their flawless cooperation and mobility that rivals his own, Moon God Night was again angered—would he really be taken down by a bunch of kids?

At that moment, Moon God Night thought of Da Fei. But Moon God Night absolutely did not wish to be saved by Da Fei! His teaming up with Da Fei partly fulfilled his curiosity, and partly because Da Fei’s destructiveness could satisfy his dark thoughts.

Now, curiosity was almost satisfied. Da Fei wasn’t some impressive professional player, nor did he seem to have significant ideas, simply agreeing to whatever was said, completely like a nouveau riche who loves beautiful women surrounding him. And Moon God Night could never revolve around a nouveau riche, nor want to owe anyone favors. This holds true in reality, and even more in the game! So, let’s fight one last battle—dead soldiers are dead soldiers!

And at this point, several green dots appeared on the radar at flight speed! Moon God Night was suddenly shocked—was it Da Fei?

Meanwhile, the radar’s anomaly also alerted the Supernova Team: "Detected three hostile targets flying towards us!"

"Is it Da Fei?" At this moment, the Supernova Team was astonished!

Indeed! It’s Da Fei. Even though the Blood Eagle cannot fight, it doesn’t mean Da Fei himself can’t. At this moment, Da Fei was using God-level Light Magic to fuse with the Contracted Authority Angel Nerxia, then brought specialized attackers Avril and Elifel to rescue Moon God Night.

The battle between Moon God Night and the American Team, along with their pursuit, was detected immediately by the Blood Eagle, which had broken out, pointing it in the right direction. It must be said, Da Fei’s inability to find an exit on the maze map already indicates his skill level is quite lacking in certain aspects.

Yet even if Da Fei is somewhat lacking, he could still see Moon God Night’s peril, so Da Fei himself decided to act. Although Da Fei couldn’t conquer the enemy’s monster, those monsters were in the underground insect nest, and Da Fei certainly wouldn’t fear these players themselves.

Faced with the green dots rapidly approaching on the map, Fortson decisively ordered, "Retreat! Our identity cannot be seen by players!"

Tommy immediately objected, "Captain, Players 10, 11, and 15 have disguise abilities that won’t expose player identities!"

Fortson raised an eyebrow, "Don’t you know Da Fei’s combat ability?"

Tommy gritted his teeth, "That only applies when he has many troops; now the opponent has only three combat units with limited magic defense distribution. This opportunity cannot be missed! Even if we can’t kill him, we can retreat quickly."

Fortson spoke in a deep voice, "You’re the Special Action Group’s captain; you decide yourself!"

Tommy immediately ordered: "Number 10, 11, and 15, intercept Da Fei! Other team members, drive the unknown individuals away from Da Fei’s direction, don’t let them meet up with Da Fei."

...

At this moment, Da Fei received a team channel message from Moon God Night: "What are you doing? The opponent is the true form of a Fallen Angel with dual magic and might. As soon as you enter the battlefield, you’ll get hit by his thunder, then he’ll attack and fly away. How many strikes can your three soldiers withstand? Can you even get close to them with your attack and defense?"

I’ve come all this way, how can I shrink back? Da Fei felt heavy in his heart: "Casting thunder at least takes some time to read the bar!"

Moon God Night sighed: "Alright! I can only say that the opponent truly represents the highest level of the United States. Without absolute strength to crush them, don’t get entangled."

Da Fei gritted his teeth: "I also want to meet this so-called highest level of the United States. If not for their monsters, what would they have left!"

As they spoke, three black angels emitting thick smoke appeared in the tunnel in front of Da Fei, without nationality! Without names!

Da Fei was startled at heart! Excluding summoned monsters, this was the first time Da Fei saw the opponent’s player images! Truly cunning and treacherous!

And at this very moment, as they watched the Golden Light Angel flying towards the front of the passage, the U.S. Supernova Team was equally shocked on the spot!

"Oh my God!!! Da Fei can fly too!"

"Angel Fusion! This Da Fei actually knows God-level Light Magic!"

"Captain? Should we still fight?"

Being professional players, they certainly knew what Angel Fusion implied. Even the most ordinary angel had 75% magic resistance to offset 75% of magic damage, and a player fusing with an angel meant having 75% magic resistance inherently, plus three unknown-strength angels sharing the damage, it was almost impossible to be killed instantly by regular attack magic. And if he couldn’t be killed instantly, the healing effect of God-level Light Magic would surely be despairing!

Magic posed no fatal threat to Da Fei, close combat was even less likely to engage Da Fei, as the captain of a top-tier team, Tommy knew what he should do: "Retreat!"

"Roger!"

As soon as Tommy’s retreat order was issued, Fortson couldn’t help but show a look of approval. For a teenager at Tommy’s age stage, especially a genius teenager, it’s often not technique but mindset that decides their performance! While the unwillingness to lose is indeed a driving force for progress, it often leads to crash and burn because they don’t know when to stop. Fortson had seen many such genius teenagers, the recently departed freckled boy David was one such case.

Preaching is useless, they must realize it themselves. Those who can’t realize this aren’t qualified to be captains. Thus, Fortson timely offered encouragement: "Though we’ve retreated, we’ve still made significant gains. At least we know Da Fei has reached God-level Light Magic, that’s an extremely terrifying realm."

Tommy also had to calm his unwilling heart: "Yes, Captain! We will also strive to reach Da Fei’s level in conventional skills."

At this moment, teammates continued reporting: "Captain, Da Fei is pursuing us. Should we disperse and retreat?"

"Scatter and retreat! Drag it out until Da Fei’s Angel Fusion time is over."

...

"Holy crap! I’ve already stripped my pants and revealed the God-level giant, and you all decide to run?"

Da Fei’s mood could no longer be described as angry! How can he not annihilate them, given Chacham’s earth spirit?

At the next moment, the three black angels dispersed and fled from the three forks in the tunnel network. Da Fei felt like his head would explode from anger! Playing games with me, huh? No matter what, I’ve got to take one down!

It’s not about being petulant! With the US Empire’s nature, if you let the opponent think you’re a soft persimmon to toy with, then you can’t play this game anymore, expect to be toyed to death. Fine, it’s about being petulant!

Observing that one of the fleeing black angels was headed straight in the direction the Blood Eagle was returning, Da Fei’s heart skipped a beat! Currently, the only sure way to capture one is to send out the Blood Eagle to block its path. But this also means possibly exposing my trump card, what should I do?

Smoke cloud! In a flash of thought, Da Fei considered the best strategy: smoke cloud! As long as the Blood Eagle hides in the smoke cloud and activates the Petrification Aura to slow down the opponent’s speed, even if discovered, it’s just a red dot on the radar! The unknown, the mysterious, is what’s most terrifying.

Let’s do it this way! At this moment, Da Fei and his 3 angels were closely pursuing a black angel in the tunnel. At this speed, the opponent definitely couldn’t make sharp turns into adjacent forks, and the Blood Eagle had already reached the ground at a fork ahead, swiftly stirring up a cloud of smoke with the Rapid Bite skill. And since it was a fork, the smoke cloud wouldn’t immediately spread into the main route of the fleeing black angel, delaying its detection of anomalies.

It’s coming! Getting closer! About to pass the fork where the Blood Eagle is ambushing! At this moment, Da Fei revealed a sinister smile!

Petrification Aura activated!

In that instant, as if by an invisible great force, the black angel’s flight momentum suddenly stalled!
