Chapter 638: 505, Team Up for a Fight, Group Buff Chain [First Update]_1
Where is the fire? Can't really release it, huh?
Gu Yuena blinked her eyes in confusion, staring at her swaying fingers. There wasn't a trace of spark to be seen; she had originally intended to try releasing the fire elements for a test.
Even someone as powerful as Gu Yuena could fall victim to it. It seems that what Senior Lin Yi said about "gods can also fall victim to it" could really come true... Miss Ning thought to herself.
The Silence Divine Technique, when specifically targeting the offensive side, could indeed be considered a divine technique.
She returned to the stage happily but, upon seeing Chen Xin's cold-faced expression, Miss Ning's own face immediately turned cold.
"After this attack is over, are you going to deactivate Darkening Mode?"
She turned her head and asked in a low tone, but no matter how low her voice was, it could not change the fact that she had a loli voice.
Chen Xin stood there, unresponsive and cold like a block of ice serving as a tombstone.
"Alright then, beginning the second attack... How should I amplify your power this time?"
Miss Ning rolled her eyes in frustration.
Chen Xin: "Release the first soul skill."
"The Seven Treasures are renowned, the first is strength!"
The dazzlingly colored Seven Treasures Glazed Pagoda floated up from Miss Ning's hand, spinning in mid-air. Swiftly, a circle of power amplification aura flew out and landed on Chen Xin.
Once it was done, Miss Ning immediately scampered off the stage!
This damned Chen Xin, with a touch of personal grudge in Darkening Mode, staying on the stage meant death!
The first and seventh soul rings floated up from Chen Xin's body one after another. He raised his sword finger, and his body instantly turned into a cloud of black smoke that dispersed in mid-air.
Even the way the Martial Soul True Body revealed itself changed after Darkening Mode.
The air turned silent for a second, followed by an incredibly strong sword intent. The black sword blade began to reveal itself, and the true body mode of the Seven Kills Sword became even more fierce, colossal, and on closer inspection, one could even see the silhouette of Chen Xin on the blade.
"First soul skill!"
Chen Xin's deep and resonant voice came through the air.
Subsequently, the darkened Seven Kills Sword emitted an intense humming sound, the entire gigantic blade lifted its head high, then violently flipped its angle, surrounded by billowing black smoke.
It swept through the air rapidly, the sword blade carrying an unstoppable momentum as it slashed towards Lin Yi. Those standing below the stage felt as though they could hear a ghastly shriek at that moment.
"Boom!"
The sword fell, raising a cloud of black smoke upon Lin Yi, while the surging wave of energy swiftly spread outwards. If Miss Ning had still been standing there, she would undoubtedly be crippled by now, as she couldn't possibly withstand the blast of such magnitude with her defense.
Facing the Damage Rebound, the floating giant sword swiftly retreated as if it had a mind of its own. It emitted another intense hum, and the roaming black smoke around it roiled and surged.
"Whoosh!"
The massive darkened Seven Kills Sword, unafraid, slashed at the incoming Golden Storm, shattering it.
As the giant sword hit the ground, it turned back into black smoke, from which Chen Xin emerged.
With a sharp look on his face, he raised his sword finger and gathered the floating black smoke into a clump, transforming it back into the normal-sized Seven Kills Sword, which then merged into his body.
Alright... Seeing this scene from below the stage, Miss Ning finally relaxed and made her way back to the stage.
Now even one's own people had to be cautious!
Lin Yi looked at the panel.
[Blood Loss: 556438]
[Remaining Blood Volume: 899864923465]
[Damage Grade: Red High-Tier (Downgraded)]
[Random Reward: Five-five Black Chain]
[Host Reward: Five-five Black Chain (Bonus Doubled)]
Seeing this reward name, Lin Yi was instantly reminded of the days he gamed with his dorm friends on the Blue Planet... Hmm, six people in the dorm, and the other five would game without him.
But what did this reward have to do with the five-man gaming sessions?
Lin Yi looked at the annotation, and his facial expression suddenly became lively.
It really was bloody linked to five-person gaming!
He said to Miss Ning, "Damage 556438, according to the rules downgraded to Red High-Tier, your reward is the Five-five Black Chain."
As expected, the other party didn't understand at all.
Lin Yi: "This is a group buff type of reward, also a damage enhancement type of reward. First, it requires that five people attack at the same time. Secondly, these five people must play as tanks, assassins, mages, marksmen, and support... You probably don't understand all this, I could explain it in another way."
Miss Ning immediately nodded, thinking to herself that Senior Lin Yi was indeed considerate.
"The five people releasing skills simultaneously, the tank is someone with high defense and some attacking capability, the assassin is someone with high burst damage, the mage is someone who can release area-of-effect energy damage, the marksman can deal ranged attacks, and support, as the name implies, is someone who provides assistance to the team."
At this point, Lin Yi looked at Miss Ning and said:
"Clearly, you can completely serve as the support role in a five-person team, and Chen Xin, with her Bow Without String, can act as the marksman, while the Seven Kills Sword Martial Spirit lets him take on the role of an assassin with high burst damage. The Snow Emperor and the Ice Emperor, as your Heaven Dou's special invitees, can play as the mages dealing area-of-effect energy damage, and Emperor Xueye can also act as an assassin with high burst damage; if he is the assassin, then Chen Xin is the marksman."
Miss Ning nodded her head while listening and understanding, the loli's appearance charming and innocent.
Lin Yi continued, "Once you satisfy these five role positions, at the moment when all five of you release your skills, a Five-five Black Chain will form on you, connecting all five of you. Once the chain is formed, the total damage of your five people will be increased by eighty-five percent."
"Eighty-five percent?!"
Miss Ning exclaimed; this was not a small amount!
Moreover, according to what Lin Yi said, they seemed to be quite fortunate to have accidentally gathered all five character roles.
Now it seemed that today's overall damage downgrade for their faction wasn't completely bad; at least, it turned the Heaven Dou Faction's day around by getting several rewards that brought damage bonuses, which undoubtedly made the Martial Soul Hall Faction green with envy.
Heh heh, what's the use of high-quality rewards? No good without luck, eh!
Lin Yi went on to say, "After the chain forms, you can basically only launch two attacks, as it consumes a lot, and two will exhaust everyone's Soul Power."
Just then, a delicate arm was raised, timidly voicing a question:
"What if I provide Soul Power Flash Charge to my teammates afterward? Could we then release a third, a fourth time?"
Miss Ning asked, blinking her eyes.
Lin Yi was slightly stunned; he had indeed forgotten that she possessed this near-bug-like ability.
"If you can Flash Charge Soul Power, then for you, this reward could be used an unlimited number of times."
"Really?! That's great!"
