Although Yan Kuan had long known the true colors of Ding Wenli and his group, he was still infuriated by the man's disgusting face.
“You bunch of scum, I’ll sooner or later…”
Before Yan Kuan could finish his sentence, he suddenly felt a chill on his neck. He looked down to see a Cold Steel Flying Daggers pressed against his neck, appearing out of nowhere.
Large beads of cold sweat rolled down his forehead. He had no idea when Ding Wenli had made his move.
Ding Wenli slowly turned his head while running, putting his right index finger to his mouth and making a “shush” gesture at Yan Kuan.
Yan Kuan dared not speak again. A few seconds later, the flying dagger slowly fell from his neck, then transformed into a cold light, chasing after Ding Wenli.
“The fourth flying dagger… and I don’t know how it appeared. Did you see it clearly?”
Yan Kuan stood still, his expression grave.
If Ding Wenli had truly intended to kill him just now, no one could have saved him.
“That flying dagger appeared out of thin air; it should be related to his skill. Fatty, there’s only one left. Help me out!”
Seeing Ding Wenli and the others run far away, Lin Xiaoxiao stopped pretending and quickly scrambled to her feet.
She had been using her Mind to suppress the last Goblin Berserker, but Yan Kuan hadn’t had time to severely injure it before being intimidated by Ding Wenli.
“My dear lady, I’m not called Fatty. Don’t learn from that kid Chen Bugu.”
Yan Kuan knew he was in the wrong and placed his hands back on the ground, as spikes of earth pierced through the soles of the Goblin Berserker’s feet.
Lin Xiaoxiao turned and leaped, her wooden club rapidly Igniting as she swung it. That was Wang Bin’s Ignite, a crude version of “enchantment” effective only on wooden items.
The wooden club furiously slammed into the Goblin Berserker’s skull, blow after blow. Lin Xiaoxiao seemed to be wildly venting her inner indignation.
Ding Wenli and Xue Ke each dealt with one Goblin Berserker before escaping. The remaining two, with the cooperation of Yan Kuan and Wang Bin, both died at Lin Xiaoxiao’s hands.
The Goblin Berserker in front of them had been decapitated, dead beyond dead.
Lin Xiaoxiao stopped her movements, took several deep breaths, and when she looked up again, blue light flickered in her eyes.
She had also completed her preparations.
…
On the other side, Ding Wenli and Xue Ke had already encountered the Goblin Shaman.
Thanks to Chen Bugu and Bai Ting, although those two weren't particularly strong, their combat experience was something even Ding Wenli had to praise.
Although both were Black Iron Three Stars, their attacks were fierce, like turrets, constantly firing fireballs and electric snakes.
Especially that Chen Bugu, Ding Wenli had observed carefully that when he dodged the Goblin Shaman’s skills, he almost always completed the evasion with the fewest movements.
But it was truly a pity. They were not only not strong enough but also foolish, being played in the palm of his hand by Ding Wenli.
However, being able to help shatter the Goblin Shaman’s energy shield, they could be considered to have died for a good cause. As for that pair of sisters, Ding Wenli would unceremoniously take them.
Ding Wenli waved his hands, and four Cold Steel Flying Daggers transformed into streaks of cold light.
His Mind was already fantasizing about what would happen after killing the Goblin Shaman.
The Goblin Shaman’s attack missed, and it was initially puzzled, but then it suddenly saw two humans charging menacingly towards it, immediately enraging it.
Its bone staff was raised high, and “fireball,” “ice cone,” “wind blade,” and other skills began to appear above its head again.
Only this time, the quantity was greater, and the energy stronger.
Xue Ke had already activated Kuang Hua (狂化). A faint red glow enveloped his entire body, and his already massive bear arms swelled up again.
He roared, blocking his arms in front of him, continuing to charge forward, letting the magic blast him.
Ding Wenli was clearly not as confident in his physical strength as Xue Ke. He stopped in place, manipulating three Cold Steel Flying Daggers to rapidly spin around him.
The flying daggers struck and quickly shattered fireballs, ice cones, and wind blades, then continued to circle.
Relying on the three Cold Steel Flying Daggers, he established an invisible spherical domain around himself, where all attacks entering the domain would be intercepted in advance.
As for the last Cold Steel Flying Daggers, it went straight for the Goblin Shaman’s face.
“Clang~”
Half a meter in front of the Goblin Shaman, the Cold Steel Flying Daggers struck a small ice shield and was blocked.
“Tsk!”
Although the attack missed, the Goblin Shaman’s offensive was abruptly interrupted.
Ding Wenli moved his fingers, and the three Cold Steel Flying Daggers circling him flew out one after another, rushing straight towards the Goblin Shaman.
And Xue Ke, who was in Kuang Hua (狂化), finally completed his close-range approach.
He raised his right arm, with immense force, and slapped directly at the Goblin Shaman.
A wave suddenly appeared out of nowhere beneath the Goblin Shaman’s feet. It stepped on the wave and instantly retreated rapidly.
Ding Wenli’s four flying daggers, like poisonous snakes, leaped over Xue Ke, following the Goblin Shaman like a shadow.
Unfortunately, this time, the Goblin Shaman seemed to be prepared. Dozens of stone pillars instantly rose around it, forming a small stone forest.
The Cold Steel Flying Daggers encountered obstacles, constantly colliding, and their speed slowed down.
Ding Wenli’s Cold Steel Flying Daggers had immense destructive power, but they needed to be deployed in an unobstructed area to be effective.
This kind of terrain perfectly countered them.
Yan Kuan’s eyes lit up, but he immediately realized that, with his current ability, raising dozens of stone pillars was like a fool’s dream, let alone needing to complete it all in an instant.
Xue Ke swung his arms, knocking down stone pillars one after another. When he reached the Goblin Shaman, he suddenly realized something was wrong.
A huge ball of light condensed at the top of the bone staff. As he arrived in front of the Goblin Shaman, the magic circle formed, and the light ball instantly turned into a light beam, engulfing Xue Ke.
“This trash!”
Ding Wenli cursed under his breath, but also realized that the five-star Goblin Shaman seemed to still have strength remaining.
He held his hands level, crossing his index and middle fingers, blue light swirling in his eyes.
The four Cold Steel Flying Daggers, originally at the outer edge of the stone forest, instantly disappeared and then suddenly reappeared in front of the Goblin Shaman.
The Goblin Shaman seemed startled by this sight, but it was too late to condense an ice shield for defense.
It wailed loudly, and its body instantly turned a yellowish-brown.
However, green blood splattered, and the Cold Steel Flying Daggers instantly broke through its defense.
The Goblin Shaman had huge cuts on both wrists, its left eye was blind, and there was a massive gash on its back.
If it hadn't cast an earth-element defense enhancement spell on itself at the last moment, it would probably have been killed by now.
Its injured hands were powerless, and it was about to lose its grip on the bone staff. The Goblin Shaman simply spread its arms and hugged the bone staff to its chest.
At the same time, it instantly conjured ice shields around itself, blocking the subsequent Cold Steel Flying Daggers.
Ding Wenli was drenched in sweat. The only skill he had mastered was “Steel Teleportation,” which allowed him to teleport steel-type objects he controlled within 200 meters.
However, this move consumed a great deal of his mental energy, so he generally didn’t use it lightly.
Seeing the Goblin Shaman about to escape into the stone forest behind it by stepping on a wave, Ding Wenli quickly shouted.
“Xue Ke, if you’re not dead, hurry up and stop it!”
“Shut your mouth!”
After the light beam dissipated, Xue Ke was seen blocking with his arms in front of him, crouching behind those massive arms, blood seeping from his eyes, nose, and the corners of his mouth simultaneously.
His massive bear arms were a bloody mess.
It seemed that light beam attack had injured him severely.
He cursed angrily, then his entire body transformed into a red light, charging towards the Goblin Shaman again like a cannonball.
Boiling Blood!
At the cost of Igniting all the blood in his body, he exchanged it for a reckless strike.
This was a skill he had learned after breaking through to Black Iron Four Star, and he hadn't expected to have to use it in this place.
After this strike, he would be forcibly withdrawn from his Kuang Hua (狂化) state and fall into weakness.
Everyone saw Xue Ke transform into a streak of bloody light, directly smashing through all the stone pillars in his path.
The Goblin Shaman conjured wall after wall of rock in front of itself, but they were all shattered by Xue Ke under “Boiling Blood.”
The red light vanished, and the Goblin Shaman flew directly out of the dust, falling to the ground, its bone staff rolling to one side.
It coughed up green blood in large mouthfuls, looking like it had only one breath left.
He succeeded!
Ding Wenli’s eyes lit up, and he manipulated the four Cold Steel Flying Daggers to chase rapidly!
“Clink, clink, clink, clink…”
The next moment, the sound of the four Cold Steel Flying Daggers colliding with some sharp weapon came, and Ding Wenli froze.
His whole body was numb. He looked sideways and found that Bai Ting had appeared beside him at some point, and strands of electric arc crawled onto his body, making him unable to move.
He then looked at the Goblin Shaman’s front and saw that familiar figure holding a short blade, smiling at him happily.
Ding Wenli’s eyes were bloodshot, his eyes splitting with rage.
He couldn’t hear what the man was saying, but by recognizing his lip movements, he understood what the other party meant.
The man smiled happily, and after speaking, he raised his short blade and fiercely plunged it into the Goblin Shaman’s head.
Ding Wenli finally heard what the other party said clearly.
He said…
“You worked hard~”
