70: Chapter 68 Should we attack the mage first?
?
The Big Boss looked at Parn, who was covered in the glow of spells, then looked down at the long-handled greataxe in his hands, a question mark practically appearing over his head.
A moment later, he took a deep breath.
"Fancy."
As soon as he spoke, the long-handled greataxe in his hand suddenly swung down with overwhelming force.
"Poof!"
The power was terrifying, as if Mount Tai were crashing down, and the supernatural power wrapped within it was exceptionally explosive and fierce.
"Poof!"
Two muffled sounds rang out in succession as both layers of the Water Shield on Parn's body were completely shattered.
"Clang!"
The axe blade landed on Parn's raised arm; a flicker of golden light appeared, and the sound of metal clashing rang out.
In the next moment, the greataxe was jolted upward by Parn, and the Big Boss took the opportunity to retract the axe.
However, he breathed a sigh of relief.
"Good, the strength isn't too excessive. I can fight this."
But just as the thought arose, he swung the greataxe down again, only for another bolt of azure light to land on Parn in the next instant.
At the same time, the fire ring rotating around him erupted violently.
"Water Shield Technique!"
"Resist Fire Ring!"
"Bang!"
The suddenly appearing fire ring bounced the greataxe away. In that brief gap, another bolt of azure light landed on him.
In the blink of an eye, two layers of Water Shield once again protected Parn tightly, and from within them, Parn looked at him strangely.
?
Two layers of Water Shield.
This was only the limit of the spell, not the limit of Mo Bai.
The Big Boss fell silent.
Luo Long, Ming Zhan, and the others in the distance also fell silent.
This...
The next moment, the Big Boss flew into a rage.
"I'll kill you!!"
The Big Boss roared, then immediately charged toward Mo Bai with his greataxe, but Parn flashed in front of him to block the way.
"Bang!"
Instantly, a fierce collision occurred. The Big Boss, now playing for keeps, swung his greataxe like a violent storm, one strike following another, the axe-wind howling.
The terrifying axe-wind plowed furrows into the ground, but he could never finish cutting through the Water Shields on Parn's body.
After hacking for a long while, he finally managed to leave several axe marks on Parn's surface, and he was starting to pant slightly.
But just as he stopped to catch his breath, he saw yellow and blue light land on Parn.
Stone Skin repaired, Water Shield reappeared!
Everything was back to square one.
Silence.
Utter silence.
Only Mo Bai watched him quietly, giving a slight shrug.
He was already at the Professional Rank; casting these apprentice-level spells was like child's play to him. There was no consumption to speak of, and he didn't feel tired at all.
If he hadn't yet deduced any Professional Rank spells, he would have definitely shown this Big Boss what's what.
And seeing Mo Bai like this...
?
"Is something the matter?"
Instantly, the Big Boss's face turned beet red.
"Hold this Stone Man for me! I'm going to kill that bastard first!!!"
The Big Boss shouted, pointing at Parn. The squad of soldiers behind him, who had been somewhat hesitant, looked at each other, took a deep breath, and charged forward.
Faint fluctuations of supernatural power also emanated from their bodies.
In the next moment, the Big Boss charged straight at Mo Bai with his greataxe. Parn tried to block him but was pinned down by that squad of veteran soldiers, allowing the Big Boss to bypass him and rush ahead.
Taking three steps in two, the red-eyed Big Boss reached Mo Bai in just a few strides.
Although he found it strange that Mo Bai didn't use any spells to attack him, the Big Boss, blinded by rage, didn't care about that anymore.
The greataxe in his hand, carrying his fury, swung down with terrifying power far exceeding his usual strength, like a mountain collapsing.
Mo Bai's figure looked incredibly frail beneath the massive axe.
"Die for me!"
A sense of satisfaction from getting revenge flickered in the Big Boss's eyes.
At this moment, everyone watching couldn't help but freeze.
It's over.
Mo Bai is really going to die.
And he's dying before them.
Just as this thought popped into their heads, they saw Mo Bai bring his hands together, and a fiery red airflow surged violently.
The greataxe, carrying its terrifying momentum, came to a dead stop between Mo Bai's hands.
There was no contact, no collision. The violent airflow of the Resist Fire Ring suddenly erupted between his hands, and two erupting fire rings instantly pinned the greataxe in place, making it hum slightly.
"Good..."
"Happy? You're happy too early!"
The Big Boss, having expected this, let his supernatural power explode. The chaotic airflow had already passed its peak, and with a surge, the greataxe that had been pinned down instantly fell once more.
The cruel smirk on the Big Boss's face was clearly visible.
But in the next moment, under everyone's watchful eyes, Mo Bai brought his hands together and pressed them against the flat of the axe blade.
Instantly, the greataxe came to a dead stop.
Instantly, the smile on the Big Boss's face gradually vanished.
No spells! No elemental ripples! No ripples of supernatural power!
With nothing but the pure brute force of both hands, he held the greataxe down, making it unable to move an inch.
There was no sound of collision, no harsh words, no ripples.
Mo Bai simply brought his hands together and clamped it tight.
Dead silence fell over everything!
"You!"
Before he could finish his sentence, Mo Bai suddenly took a step forward and slammed a fist into the Big Boss's stomach.
"Bang!"
A visible fist print appeared on the iron armor over the Big Boss's stomach, and he was instantly sent flying backward, his eyes still wide with shock.
"Trans... cendent..."
"Professional Rank!"
"How is that possible!"
The dazed Big Boss stared with wide eyes, but in the next moment, Mo Bai appeared in front of him and slammed his knee upward.
"Bang!"
The Big Boss's struggle was cut short by that terrifying force, and his whole body soared into the air like a bird with broken wings. Mo Bai followed close behind, leaping into the air with one hand behind his back, while a fiery red ring appeared in his right hand.
In mid-air, the moment the Big Boss and Mo Bai reached the same height, Mo Bai gently pressed his right hand against the Big Boss's chest.
Silently, the fiery red ring sank into the heavy armor on the Big Boss's body.
Mo Bai used terrifying brute force to knock the Big Boss away, then landed on the ground, casually brushed a bit of dust off his clothes, and walked forward without looking back.
Behind him, in mid-air, the helpless Big Boss still had a look of horror in his eyes, and even a hint of regret began to surface.
"Why did I provoke a true Transcendent? Am I... am I even worthy?"
"I'm really not worthy!"
Before his voice could fade, the Resist Fire Ring that had sunk into his heavy armor suddenly exploded.
"Boom!!!"
Flames poured out from the gaps in the heavy armor, along with blood and shredded meat.
"Thud!"
The Big Boss's corpse landed on the ground, his eyes staring fixedly at the sky, filled with regret.
Mo Bai didn't look back; he paced forward and looked at Yang Hao and the others, who were looking up at him.
"Finished the calculations?"
"Uh..."
Yang Hao was stunned for a moment, then took a deep breath, took a heavy bite of a Sour Fruit, and said with great admiration.
"Brother Mo is awesome!"
"Brother Mo is awesome!"
Cheers rang out one after another, while on the other side, the stunned crowd finally reacted.
"Hiss!!!!"
