Chapter 71: Instantly Killing the Shikigami, Scaring Away the Cherry Blossom Country
The two exited the dungeon.
Ning Yiyi immediately used a cooldown talisman.
A few seconds later, they entered the dungeon again.
"What are they doing?"
"Why did they come out right after entering, then go back in?"
"That’s not how you’re supposed to use cooldown talismans. What a waste."
"Is this what it means to be rich and willful?"
The two opposing sides still in a standoff outside were stunned.
They couldn’t understand what Lin Moyu and Ning Yiyi were doing.
Even if they racked their brains, they wouldn’t guess the two were clearing the Nightmare difficulty Mermaid dungeon.
And clearing it in just 10 minutes.
Only Jiang Taotao and the other two knew the real situation.
The three looked at each other, their eyes full of shock.
They knew Lin Moyu could easily solo the Mermaid dungeon.
But they couldn’t imagine clearing it in 10 minutes.
Even just casually walking through the dungeon would take about that long.
Lin Moyu repeated the process, again clearing the dungeon with Ning Yiyi.
"Yay, this time it took 8 minutes 58 seconds, over 30 seconds faster than last time!"
Ning Yiyi looked at the time on her communicator, which was actually counting down.
Lin Moyu chuckled. This girl was really interesting.
Others treated the trial as a mission, but Ning Yiyi seemed to be treating it like a game.
This time after leaving, the two didn’t re-enter the dungeon, but returned to the Divine Summer Empire team.
"Did they use up all the cooldown talisman charges?"
"What a waste."
"Why aren’t they going back in? Go on, I dare you to enter again."
The Cherry Blossom Country people shouted, full of disdain.
Their eyes showed more jealousy, wishing they could snatch Ning Yiyi’s cooldown talisman.
After Lin Moyu and Ning Yiyi returned, they regrouped with Jiang Taotao and the others.
Jiang Taotao asked, "Did you get it?"
Lin Moyu handed the Mermaid’s Tear to Jiang Taotao.
For this trial they were one team, with Jiang Taotao as leader. She would need to complete the final task submission.
Suddenly someone pointed at the dungeon and shouted, "The dungeon disappeared!"
This shout was like a thunderclap, drawing everyone’s attention.
The vortex at the dungeon entrance shuddered a few times before completely vanishing.
"How could the dungeon disappear?"
"This is impossible, unless all three Mermaid’s Tears were obtained. Only then would the dungeon disappear."
"Just now, didn’t that person enter three times?"
"Could it be they got the Mermaid’s Tears?"
"They cleared Nightmare difficulty, is that even possible?"
Whether possible or not, the facts were right in front of them.
The dungeon had truly disappeared.
It was no longer possible to obtain Mermaid’s Tears.
"Let’s go," Lin Moyu said softly.
They had the Mermaid’s Tear, no need to stay any longer.
"Don’t let them leave!"
"They must have the Mermaid’s Tears. We have to make them hand them over."
"Take them back!"
"Hand over the Mermaid’s Tears, or you’re not leaving."
The Cherry Blossom Country people were furious, all pressing forward.
The Divine Summer Empire side was also curious. Someone asked, "Jiang Taotao, did you really get the Mermaid’s Tear?"
Jiang Taotao didn’t deny it, "The Mermaid’s Tear is indeed in my possession."
Hiss!
Everyone drew in a sharp breath.
This meant they had really cleared the dungeon earlier.
Especially the last two times, with just two people clearing the dungeon.
How did they manage that?
Almost everyone’s eyes held confusion.
Ling Zhen shouted internally, "This is impossible, they couldn’t have cleared the dungeon!"
But regardless of doubts, faced with the Cherry Blossom Country’s pressure,
The Divine Summer Empire, Summer Capital University, and Hidden Dragon Academy people were extremely united.
They immediately formed a battle formation.
"Get lost!"
"How dare mere Cherry Blossom Country people act wild before our Divine Summer Empire."
"Want to snatch the Mermaid’s Tear? No way!"
Suddenly a boom sounded in the sky.
The wind scattered the clouds, revealing two huge shikigami.
The Onmyoji finally stopped hiding and revealed himself.
He sat on a shikigami, emanating a powerful aura.
Judging by aura alone, his level was very high, probably not below 30.
His career was the Cherry Blossom Country’s unique Onmyoji, a legendary career.
And he possessed powerful shikigami.
Not easy to deal with!
Jiang Taotao looked slightly nervous, raising an eyebrow, "This person is at least level 30."
But then she suddenly remembered, even the powerful Mermaid Queen couldn’t last 2-3 minutes against Lin Moyu.
No matter how strong this Onmyoji was, he probably couldn’t solo the Nightmare Mermaid dungeon either.
Lin Moyu’s skeletons were each so powerful.
Thinking of this, Jiang Taotao relaxed again.
The Onmyoji stared at Jiang Taotao, "Hand over the Mermaid’s Tear, or you’re not leaving."
Both shikigami turned to look at Jiang Taotao.
Their gaze was cold.
Before Jiang Taotao could speak, Lin Moyu had already acted.
Fire flashed in his palm.
Skill: Soul Fire!
A flame appeared above one shikigami’s head.
The flame instantly burrowed into the shikigami’s body.
Ahh!
The shikigami let out an earth-shaking scream.
Cold wind howled, the scream was unbearably shrill as the shikigami twisted and deformed.
The Onmyoji’s face changed. He immediately used a skill, trying to stabilize the shikigami.
At the same time he coldly looked at Lin Moyu, "Seeking death!"
Another terrifying shikigami appeared in the sky.
This shikigami was over 3 meters tall, wearing armor, with a snake head and human body, wielding a huge axe.
As soon as it appeared, it flew towards Lin Moyu.
"Attack!"
Another chaotic battle began.
The Hidden Dragon Academy side unleashed a barrage of attacks on the axe-wielding shikigami.
But it was like a stone dropped in the sea, causing no damage at all.
Everyone realized this shikigami was very strong.
The Onmyoji sneered, "Your attacks can at most tickle my Axe God."
Five skeleton warriors appeared beside Lin Moyu.
They leapt high, meeting the descending axe shikigami.
Skill: Berserk Strike!
The skeleton warriors’ blades flashed red.
With their 5400 strength, their attack power was already terrifyingly strong.
The skill further doubled their attack.
Bang bang bang!
This seemingly powerful shikigami was instantly destroyed.
It turned into a puff of blue smoke, dissipating in the air.
"So weak?" Lin Moyu was slightly stunned.
The seemingly powerful shikigami was unexpectedly weak.
Others were also dumbfounded.
Their own attacks had no effect at all.
But Lin Moyu’s skeletons killed the enemy shikigami in two or three strikes.
Was the shikigami really that weak?
Or were the skeletons too strong?
With the shikigami destroyed, the Onmyoji as its master also suffered heavy damage.
His face instantly turned deathly pale as he violently coughed up a mouthful of blood.
At this moment, fire flashed in Lin Moyu’s hand again.
The still screaming shikigami suffered another heavy blow.
Two skeleton warriors had silently appeared beside it, their blades falling.
This shikigami was also instantly killed.
The Onmyoji screamed again.
He hurriedly urged his mount shikigami to fly high, away from Lin Moyu.
His eyes looking at Lin Moyu were full of hatred, but also fear.
Everyone was startled by this scene.
The chaotic battle on both sides stopped.
One by one they looked at Lin Moyu with shock and fear.
"How can his skeletons be so powerful?"
"Those were shikigami, yet they were so easily slain."
"What kind of skeletons are these? What career is he? What level is he?"
Questions arose one after another.
The Cherry Blossom Country people doubted Lin Moyu’s career and level.
Lin Moyu wore a blocking badge, so they couldn’t see his career and level.
But the Onmyoji in the sky knew Lin Moyu was only level 17, with the Necromancer career.
To be so powerful at just level 17, this career must be terrifyingly strong.
And Lin Moyu must have awakened a talent.
He was a talent career holder.
The Onmyoji felt he must bring this intelligence back. A powerful career holder had appeared in the Divine Summer Empire.
Thinking of this, he left on his shikigami without looking back.
Losing two shikigami in succession made his heart bleed.
Ten skeleton warriors lined up in the field.
Their bodies emitted a blue-white light, their blades gleaming coldly. Soul fire flickered constantly, cold wind gusting.
Just looking at them was enough to scare away the faint-hearted.
Faced with the skeleton warriors, no Cherry Blossom Country person dared to attack.
If even the Onmyoji was easily driven away, how could they withstand this?
Retreat? Or fight?
This was a difficult question.
The skeleton warriors suddenly moved, walking towards the Cherry Blossom Country people with scraping sounds.
Their blades swayed, carrying a chilling intent.
As the skeleton warriors advanced, the Cherry Blossom Country people kept retreating.
Their morale weakened more and more.
Once morale collapsed, there was no need to fight.
The pressure from the skeleton warriors was too immense.
As the first person screamed and fled, the Cherry Blossom Country team completely collapsed.
