Chapter 857

Back when Zhao Yun first entered, the expression on the faces of Moonlight and his team members had remained mostly relaxed. However, the others continued to appear one by one. By the time Du Wei appeared, their faces had become one of utter dread.

After changing into the exclusive bodies of the Development Team, they had gained an increase in not just their strength but also their ability to discern things.

Every single one of these six newcomers possessed the same level of power as that of their angel bodies. Rather, these newcomers might be even stronger.

What was going on with this world? How could the Development Team have failed to detect them all this time? More, the Development Team did not even inform them that there were actually so many BUGs!

Earlier, when they had just changed their bodies with these angel bodies, they had felt extremely prideful of their newfound powers. But at this moment, that feeling of pride gradually faded.

“Development Team, the situation’s changed! Hurry, arrange for an evac!”

Moonlight’s face was taut and he uttered in a hushed tone, seemingly mumbling to himself.

There was no need for him to speak aloud. Since the Development Team gave them these Exclusive Accounts, they must surely have begun monitoring this instance dungeon. Nothing here could escape their eyes.

The difference in strength between the two parties here had surpassed that of the quest that the Development Team assigned them. Staying here would only result in their deaths.

However, after Moonlight said that, the three of them continued to remain there. Their surroundings remained silent; no response could be heard.

“Development Team… Development Team?”

Despite knowing it would not make a difference, Moonlight could not stop himself from raising his voice.

“What is it? When you were beating up Shen earlier, weren’t you feeling very powerful?” Gabriel snickered, stretching a hand out. A ball of light appeared on his palm before rapidly spinning non-stop. However, he did not immediately attack.

“Now, are you suddenly feeling very helpless, lonely and weak?”

“You did this?” Moonlight abruptly raised his head and roared in a stern voice. “You guys… you can even block off the Development Team?!”

“It’s not like we don’t want to have that kind of ability, but we really can’t do that.” Du Wei shrugged. He looked at Moonlight with a commiserating face. “Why can’t you look at it from a more simplistic perspective? You guys… are merely three discarded tools.”

Abruptly, their faces turned extremely pale.

“Perhaps, they simply want to perform a strength test,” said Zhao Yun, who was standing behind Gabriel. “The Development Team must also be curious about how strong we’ve become.”

“If they’re so eager to find out, why don’t they personally come down?” An icy light glinted across Cheng Cheng’s eyes. “Why send these Players to be scapegoats?”

“Practically speaking, they are already strong enough.” Mr San smiled as he took a few steps forward. “At the very least, in the past, with the exception of Shen and Du Wei, we would be no match for them in a one versus one… don’t glare at me, Bai Qi. That includes you.”

Bai Qi responded with a cold snort before turning away.

“However… things are different now.” Du Wei smiled at Moonlight’s team of three. “Then, are you guys ready to die?”

Moonlight raised his head skywards and let out a long hiss, his eyes suddenly taking on a highly maddened look. Then, the wings on his back flapped and his entire figure transformed into a shooting star, which shot towards Chen Xiaolian.

Shockbolt and Swift Swallow were right behind him, launching an attack against Chen Xiaolian at the same time.

Get rid of the weakest one first!

In an instant, the power of the three angels combined to descend upon Chen Xiaolian’s body simultaneously, making it so Chen Xiaolian could not move. He was practically incapable of moving even a finger. Everything around him had seemingly frozen, leaving only the lances wielded by Moonlight and the other two. The lances brought with them a sweeping and boundless power as they stabbed towards Chen Xiaolian.

The section of the lances held by the three angels was only as thick as a normal lance. But as the lances kept stabbing forward, the final section of the lances – shockingly – grew increasingly thick. It seemed as though there were three colossal mountains – capable of enveloping the world – bearing down on him.

Although Chen Xiaolian was being attacked by the three angels all at the same time, his face remained at ease. He showed no signs of concern. In fact, the Flash Bow of Ketu-Rahu in his hand was still in a resting position. He had not brought it up to defend himself.

What a joke! The old monsters were already here. What was there to fear?

Pu!

The surface of a black-clothed umbrella stopped Shockbolt’s lance.

Dang!

Zhao Yun’s spear, the Silver Dragon, struck the tip of Swift Swallow’s lance.

Bang!

Du Wei’s fist struck the shaft of Moonlight’s lance.

The three lances had originally carried with them a momentum that could seemingly trample everything, but they were instead stopped all of a sudden.

“Bringing a bunch of bosses to back me up just feels… so damned good!”

Chen Xiaolian watched as the three old monsters intercepted the attacks and began fighting against Moonlight and his team members. It felt most gratifying.

“Why did you bring them over to save me?”

Shen had moved over and was standing behind Chen Xiaolian. Although his body was still covered in wounds, he maintained an upright stature. “I am determined to kill you and snatch away the Oddity. Wouldn’t it be better for you if they kill me here?”

“Because… you have your plan and I have mine. There’s nothing personal in what we do. It’s not as though there’s any grudge between us.” Chen Xiaolian shrugged.

“Additionally, you should already be able to see it. Right now, Mr San and the others have already read the source code within the wings as well. I only managed to obtain two pairs though. That’s probably less than yours. However, with us working together, you no longer have the chance to do it.”

“You plan using the new Zero City to keep this up? But as I’ve said before, this cannot completely solve the problem.” Shen frowned.

“And I’ve said it before as well. Some matters can only be discussed after we return to the new Zero City.” Chen Xiaolian smiled while shaking his head. Glancing at Bai Qi, Cheng Cheng and Gabriel, he saw them standing behind him with their hands clasped behind their backs. “Enough, let’s not talk about this anymore. I’ve got to exercise with these angels. You old monsters want to maintain your reputation and are unwilling to fight in a 2 versus 1, I’m not that noble.”

Even as he spoke, Chen Xiaolian had already raised the Flash Bow of Ketu-Rahu. Power flowed from every part of his body into the body of the bow and the bowstring, where it gathered.

He was aiming at Moonlight.

“Maintain reputation?” Shen shook his head as he gave a faint laugh. freew(e)bnovel

Du Wei was not using any weapons. All he did was attack with his naked fists. Every time his attacks collided with the tip of the lance, a series of ripples would spread out.

Moonlight’s face was becoming increasingly contorted.

Shockingly, the three opponents they were facing possessed a strength that surpassed the Exclusive Accounts granted to them by the Development Team.

Moreover, there were still five other guys from the other party that had yet to take action.

It was true that both Shen and Chen Xiaolian had been badly wounded. This was especially true for Shen, who had practically used up all his strength. They had needed only one more attack to kill Shen off. But the remaining three had a power that was in no way lacking compared to the three that were fighting him and his teammates.

If those fellows attacked as well… it would surely result in a massacre.

As Moonlight fought, he kept on shouting for the Development Team loudly. But no matter how much he called, no response came.

As he was feeling anxious, a feeling of alarm suddenly enveloped his whole body. It felt as though there were sharp needles piercing every inch of his skin.

Even without looking, Moonlight could sense that Chen Xiaolian, who was standing on the ground, had pulled the longbow in his hand. He was targeting Moonlight with his power.

Damn it!

If Chen Xiaolian had been alone, Moonlight would not have viewed this attack as a threat. He could either dodge just as the arrow was fired or parry it. He could also attack first to interrupt Chen Xiaolian to stop him from building up power for the attack.

However… at this very moment, he was being entangled by this red-haired native.

Moonlight launched a furious wave of attacks against Du Wei, hoping that this could create an opening for him to interrupt Chen Xiaolian’s power build up. But no matter what he tried, he could not do it. All he could do was watch as the power gathering upon the Flash Bow of Ketu-Rahu grew stronger and stronger.

In his eyes, string after string of green code was gathering upon the bow where they were packed closely together. In addition, they also swirled rapidly.

Finally, the radiance on the Flash Bow of Ketu-Rahu reached its limit.

Release!

A crescent-shaped shooting star cut through space, flying straight towards Moonlight’s back.

Moonlight had wanted to avoid the attack, but Du Wei, who was right in front of him, did not give him the chance. And so, he could only grit his teeth and force himself to endure, hoping that this exclusive body granted by the Development Team could endure that one arrow.

Boom!

The crescent moon-like attack smashed into Moonlight’s back and countless streams of energy scattered outwards.

And while no wounds appeared on his body, Moonlight could clearly sense that tiny cracks had appeared all over his body.

For an instant, the power coursing through his body – due to the arrow attack – stagnated for a moment.

Oh, no!

Moonlight could already feel the aftermath.

His lance, which he had been stabbing towards Du Wei with all his strength, lost all its force mid-way. Du Wei’s fist then smashed it away and it shattered into numerous fragments in mid-air.

The next punch came from below. Like a bolt of lightning, it slammed into Moonlight’s chest.

Like a meteor, Moonlight’s body was sent hurtling down to the ground.

He had lost control of his body.

Before he could even make contact with the ground, however, he saw Du Wei swoop down at an even greater velocity. Opening his right hand, Du Wei pressed it down on Moonlight’s face, blocking his sight completely.

Power surged out from Du Wei’s palm, pouring into Moonlight through his seven orifices.

A wretched scream rang out. As the power continued to pour into Moonlight’s body, bit by bit, it began to – beginning from the head – break and shatter before drifting into the air until it utterly disappeared.

There was however, one thing that was not destroyed and it landed gently on the ground. It was the pair of white wings that was on his back.
