The embattled class users suddenly noticed that the tentacles of the Wind-Lightning Algae Cluster had gone still, now coated in a layer of white.
In that instant, the pressure eased.
“Now’s our chance—counterattack!” The lead class user shouted.
They launched a fierce assault against the Flying Fish.
Sensing the shift, many Flying Fish dove into the water to defend the Wind-Lightning Algae Cluster, further relieving the pressure on the class users.
Seizing the montum, they fought with all their might.
Three level 80-plus class users joined forces to besiege the Flying Fish Lord. Even for them, facing such a foe demanded everything they had.
Their attire revealed they hailed from the sa faction.
The fact they had held their own against over a thousand Flying Fish and the Wind-Lightning Algae Cluster spoke volus of their strength.
Now, with the Wind-Lightning Algae Cluster’s interference gone, their combat power erupted.
Flying Fish fell one after another.
The Flying Fish Lord retaliated, unleashing its lightning-type skill, and thunder roared.
At its command, the Flying Fish darted like arrows, their bodies most powerful weapons.
The battle surged to a fever pitch.
The Flying Fish Lord let out sharp, anxious cries.
Suddenly, one of the class users attacking it shouted, “Sothing’s wrong—soone’s attacking the Wind-Lightning Algae Cluster! Team Three, investigate!”
“On it!”
Several broke away, ignoring the Flying Fish, and flew downward.
Just as they were about to dive into the water—Lin Moyu erged.
In Lin Moyu’s hand was the massive corpse of the Wind-Lightning Algae Cluster.
He had slain it in just a few minutes.
At that mont, the Flying Fish Lord let out a piercing screech and turned to flee, lightning crackling around it.
The other Flying Fish followed instantly, disappearing without a trace in the blink of an eye.
With the Wind-Lightning Algae Cluster dead, the Flying Fish Lord sensed grave danger.
Its survival instinct took over, and it fled without a second thought.
Lin Moyu sighed inwardly, “They sure ran fast.”
He had the opportunity to stop them, but saw no reason to.
“Don’t pursue them!” The lead class user barked, shifting his focus to Lin Moyu.
After all, their real target wasn’t the Flying Fish, but the Wind-Lightning Algae Cluster now in Lin Moyu’s grasp.
The leader's expression darkened as he stared at Lin Moyu, a hint of surprise in his eyes, “Level 52? He’s definitely hiding his real level.”
No one believed a level 52 class user could kill the Wind-Lightning Algae Cluster.
Even more puzzling, how had a level 52 class user even co to the lower layer?
Yet Lin Moyu stood there alone, victorious. That made the leader cautious.
Scanning the surroundings and seeing no one else, he suspected Lin Moyu’s companions might still be underwater.
He murmured a few words to his teammates, then stepped forward, then fixed his eyes on Lin Moyu, “Shenxian, why did you steal our boss?”
With their distinctive attire, Lin Moyu recognized them as mbers of the Holy Overseer Church.
Relations between the Holy Overseer Church and the Shenxia Empire were lukewarm: neither hostile nor friendly.
Normally, there was little conflict, but also little interaction.
Lin Moyu didn’t like the look in the man’s eyes, “I saw you getting overwheld, so I did you a favor.”
It was the truth, but the other party clearly didn’t buy it.
“Shenxian, we’re a party from the Holy Overseer Church. I’m Kled. We ca here specifically to hunt the Wind-Lightning Algae Cluster.”
“Since you ant well, we’ll let it slide.”
“Just hand over the Wind-Lightning Algae Cluster, and we won’t hold it against you. You’ll even earn the friendship of the Holy Overseer Church.”
His tone was condescending, as if Lin Moyu had no choice but to agree
Lin Moyu chuckled, “And why would I do that?”
Kled’s expression darkened, “We discovered the boss first. You had no right to interfere.”
“Hand it over.”
If Kled had approached with a hint of sincerity, Lin Moyu might’ve considered sharing a portion of the Wind-Lightning Algae Cluster.
But now?
His voice turned icy, “So what? Without my interventions, you wouldn’t have defeated the Flying Fish school and the Wind-Lightning Algae Cluster. You might’ve died
“You should be thanking for saving your lives.”
One of Kled’s teammates leaned in and whispered sothing. Kled nodded, face hardening.
“Shenxian, we ca prepared. We’ll get what we ca for. I’m giving you one last chance.”
“Hand over the Wind-Lightning Algae Cluster. I’ll even let you keep a tenth.”
“Otherwise…”
The threat hung heavy in the air.
At the sa ti, several of Kled’s teammates began to subtly shift into combat positions.
Lin Moyu raised a brow, “Otherwise what? You’ll kill ?”
Kled gripped his sword tightly, his shield beginning to emit a faint glow.
He was a Crusader, a unique class exclusive to the Holy Overseer Church.
Blending the strength of a Warrior with the resilience of a Knight, Crusaders boasted both high attack and formidable defense.
To many, it was a near-perfect class.
Kled’s expression grew solemn, his voice booming like thunder, “Hand over the Wind-Lightning Algae Cluster, or you won’t leave this place alive.”
As his words fell, his more than fifty subordinates moved instantly, surrounding Lin Moyu.
But Lin Moyu didn’t flinch.
He stood calmly in the center of the circle, feeling amused.
Where did they find this confidence, acting as if they truly had him cornered?
He hadn’t ant to steal their boss. He genuinely intended to help.
Had they approached with so decency, perhaps shown a shred of gratitude, he might have even offered to split the loot.
After all, with his lightning elental resistance already at 80%, the Lightning Algae was of little value to him.
But instead, they t his goodwill with bla, and now threats.
So be it.
Not only would he keep the prize, he might as well kill them all.
Lin Moyu sneered, “Finally dropping all pretenses, huh?”
Kled took a deep breath, “The Holy Overseer Church has no quarrel with Shenxia. I’ll give you one last chance. Hand over the Wind-Lightning Algae Cluster, and we’ll let you walk away.”
As he spoke, his eyes scanned the surroundings, wary of hidden allies.
Lin Moyu chuckled, “Don’t bother. I’m alone.”
“Actually, think about it. If I could take down the Wind-Lightning Algae Cluster by myself… what makes you think I can’t take down all of you?”
Lin Moyu had killed people before, and quite a few tis at that.
He didn’t seek bloodshed, but once he made a move, no one lived to tell the tale.
At that mont, a murderous aura erupted from Lin Moyu’s Domain Divine Stone, surging skyward like a pillar of black smoke.
The lightning within the Wind-Lightning Ocean recoiled as if in fear, scattering into the depths.
Kled’s face went pale. He had overlooked sothing critical.
He had assud Lin Moyu had backup hidden underwater.
What he hadn’t considered was the far more terrifying truth—what if Lin Moyu had done it all on his own alone?
The realization sent a chill down his spine, cold sweat sliding down his back.
The oppressive murderous aura rolling off Lin Moyu was suffocating. Kled involuntarily shivered.
“Run!” He roared, spinning to escape.
But it was too late.
In the blink of an eye, a thin layer of white bone appeared over everyone’s bodies, including his own.
He couldn’t move. His body was completely locked down. Only his thoughts and vision remained free.
A violent power stirred within him. As a Crusader, he had skills that could break through most restraints.
His body began to glow. Breaking free would take less than a second.
And the sa was true for other class users in his group.
Breaking free wasn’t the hard part. The hard part was what ca next.
After all, it that brief mont, his fate could already be sealed.
A flash of red light streaked past his vision, and he saw tiny red swords, each trailing a chain, on everyone’s heads. Everything seed to slow.
Then, countless skeletons materialized in the air, completely surrounding them.
Each skeleton had glowing rings of light beneath their feet.
Without him even realizing when, flas erupted across his body, frost crept over his skin, and bolts of lightning rained down like judgnt.
And then, right before his eyes, skeletons swung their massive axe at him, radiating a red glow.
Skill: Super Extre Defense!
Kled activated his strongest defensive skill at the last possible instant.
Super Extre Defense was an upgraded form of the Knight’s Extre Defense, unlocked only at level 80.
The skill provided 60 seconds of invincibility.
During this ti, even the most powerful bosses couldn’t touch him.
And he wasn’t alone
Two more level 80-plus Crusaders activated the sa skill.
In this state, no negative status effects could touch them, and even those already in effect were instantly erased.
