Chapter 25: One Hammer Settles the Matter

  "Bastard! You've gone too far!"

  The nightmarish scene had all the heroes furious, their angry roars echoing one after another. They were so enraged that they wished to tear the enemy mage's body into a million pieces. However, after taking a glance at the equipment on the enemy mage's body, they suddenly felt a chill in their hearts and no one dared to approach easily.

  And that's a major weakness of the global flow lineup, although they were very strong in the early stages and had good team fight support, but before getting key equipment like Sheep Knife and Purple Lotus, their restrictive control skills were simply too few, with only one unstable control from Fa, which was no match for the enemy's four-god equipped mage.

  Fortunately, their AOE range skills were sufficient. The dwarven repairman TK could summon a large number of robots, Zeus' thunder and lightning chain, and the clockwork dwarf's illuminating shells, all of which could cause massive damage to the Treefolk army of Tianhui. As a result, before the enemy lines even reached their own high ground, they were already being bombarded by the dwarves in succession, forcing them to retreat.

  However, they didn't know that Su Hong had no intention of going to the high ground from the start. After pushing away two outer towers and earning a small 2,000 game coins, he flashed and teleported to a safe location, then directly opened the teleportation scroll to return to the city.

  Su Hong returned to the base and rushed to the store without saying a word, using the more than 3,000 yuan he had just earned to synthesize an item of equipment.

  "Bone-breaking hammer? I thought you were going to use the Splitting Axe, Brother Fa. If you want to get on high ground, the Splitting Axe would be better, wouldn't it?" Wu Sheng's voice rang out, he had been closely watching Su Hong's actions and couldn't help but ask in doubt.

  "Not bad, it's the Bone Crusher! If this were a virtual fighting game, especially in the later stages, the Clone Axe would definitely be more practical than the Bone Crusher. But remember, this isn't a game, it's an extremely realistic bloody battle. In some situations, the Bone Crusher is stronger than the Clone Axe, like now!" Su Hong said with a mysterious smile, without explaining further, and rushed towards the upper road battle line.

  It's unclear whether it was Su Hong's luck or the misfortune of Ye Meng's repairman TK, but just as Su Hong transformed into an enemy mage and was about to reach the upper road, TK, who had flown over with his flying shoes, happened to fly over, wanting to pocket the gold from this wave of troops. However, just as he was ecstatically summoning a wave of small robots to clear the line, the figure of the enemy mage appeared in his field of vision like a demon.

  "Run! Run! Run!"

  The Earth Essence Repair Master TK's face turned pale, without any ideas, and he immediately fled. He was originally an intelligence-type hero with low health points, and the Sheep Knife was far from being able to deal damage. He didn't have the ability to fight against the enemy mage head-on, let alone the enemy mage's passive skill "Mana Damage" which would completely destroy a hero like him who relied on intelligence. As soon as he got close, he would be dead.

  Can't help but say, the reaction of the Dark Elf repairman TK was very quick, and his movement was also very swift. Just as he was secretly rejoicing, thinking that he would soon escape with his life, the enemy mage's attack arrived.

  "Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!"

  The equipment butterfly enemy method fast attack speed, instantly cut out three knives, directly to the ground precision repair TK's life value cut off more than half, and what makes him even more terrified is that he was about to drill into the wild area of the forest, but he was stiff in place, unable to move at all.

  "Bone Crusher?!"

  It wasn't until then that the Dwarf Tinkerer TK noticed that in just a short while, the enemy Warlock had somehow managed to equip yet another piece of equipment that left him utterly hopeless - a Bonecrusher Mallet with a 25% chance to cause a 1.4-second stun on hit.

  1. The 4-second stun from the Concussive Blow seemed short, but it was long enough for the enemy Warlock to land a killing blow, and there was no suspense as the Dwarf Tinkerer TK fell dead.

  "Unstoppable! Six kills!"

  The ancient battlefield was filled with the sound of war cries and howling, drowning out all other sounds. The morale of the Tianhui Army was greatly boosted, while the Nightmare Army's morale suffered a huge blow.

  "Enemy Law, is this your goal, to enhance your solo killing ability through the passive stun of Shattered Bone Mallet? But don't you think that with my Two Instruments Reversal ultimate move, using another Shattered Bone Mallet would be a bit redundant and wasteful? Or are you saying, Enemy Law, that you don't trust me, thinking I can't control the opposing hero?" By this point, Wu Sheng 2009 was already somewhat aggrieved.

  For the straightforward Wu Sheng in 2009, Su Hong had a good impression and didn't want to leave any misunderstandings. He couldn't help but burst out laughing and explained: "Haha, don't overthink it, it's not that I don't trust you, but on this ancient battlefield, it's not necessarily about pushing the opponent's base to high ground to win, at least when our ladder points are still low."

  "What do you mean by 'enemy law', I don't quite understand." Wu Sheng asked in 2009, slightly stunned.

  "Just keep watching, you'll understand soon!" Su Hong smiled slightly and didn't say more, rushing towards the Nightmarer's jungle area. If he wasn't mistaken, the opposing Oracle and Zeus, two fragile heroes, were teaming up to farm gold in the jungle.

  As expected, Su Hong soon discovered the tall and thin figure of the Prophet as well as Zeus hiding behind him. He couldn't help but lick his lips, and with a flash of movement, he appeared in front of the Prophet.

  "Split up and run!"

  After Zeus, the leader of Nightmares, was killed by TK, he had an idea and closely monitored the surroundings. Upon discovering the enemy's mage, he immediately made the most correct response and ran towards his team's two towers.

  But before he could run a few steps, the sky suddenly echoed with the master's thunderous roar: "Whickedsick!! Seven Kills!"

  "Has he gone mad and slaughtered everyone?! Damn it, who is this guy?!" Zeus ran to the bottom of the second tower, gritting his teeth in anger, just about to burst into a loud curse, but quickly changed color and turned pale with terror.

  Rush the tower!

  Relying on the strong life recovery ability of Long Xin, Su Hong transformed into an enemy law master and launched a fierce attack on the opponent's two towers without his own army line. He withstood the firepower output of the Ghost Tower, and with a swift slash, he harvested Zeus who had nowhere to escape.

  Moreover, the Spring Onion reinforcements were also harvested by the enemy's law enforcer, Su Hong, with a few swift strokes. Without powerful equipment, they posed no great threat to the law enforcer, and killing them was as easy as chopping vegetables.

  "Monster kill! Eighth kill!"

  "Godlike! Nine kills!"

  "Triple kill! Three kills in a row!"

  The thunderous sound in the sky, the cold and ruthless voice of the ruler actually became excited with it, but these three consecutive battle cries made the Nightmares Legion completely silent.

  Everyone cowered beside the Life Spring in the Nightmares' base, feeling somewhat at a loss, quietly watching Zeus who had just been reborn and revived, waiting for their next orders.

  "Don't look at me, I've been ravaged by others, how can I still fight? Are you really going to let that guy become a super god?" Zeus said with his head hung low in frustration.

  Before that, they were hiding in the middle road, recklessly charging and killing the half-human mammoth on the opposite side, but they never thought that soon they would suffer the same blow. Zeus and Clockwork were successively killed by someone under the second tower, and that kind of bitter and depressed taste could only be savored by themselves.

  What made them even more disheartened was that the enemy's mage unexpectedly took out a shattered bone mace, instantly disrupting their previous plan to farm money and drag on into the late game. No one dared to show their heads online or in the wild anymore, and the space for making money was thoroughly compressed. In this way, even if they dragged it to the late game, what could they use to fight against the enemy mage?

  As for team battles, although they have an advantage in numbers, the previous wipeout in the Tianhui wilderness has proven with painful facts that without sufficient strong equipment, they are not capable of facing the opponent head-on.

  They carefully selected a global flow lineup and took the suppressive flow route, with an extremely smooth start. Victory was almost a sure thing, but due to their complacency, they repeatedly missed opportunities, ultimately leading to disastrous consequences, as they were completely turned over by the enemy's road mage.

  For such a result, the Nightmares are all heroes with regret in their hearts. But even if they are not willing to accept it, they have to admit that the current situation is extremely unfavorable for them. Unless they can put aside their personal feelings and have an unyielding determination to sacrifice everything, do their best to delay the enemy's mage's rhythm, and let their own late-game ghosts develop, there is still a glimmer of hope for victory.

  However, this idea only briefly flashed through the minds of the crowd and was quickly discarded. As seasoned players, they knew a lot about the rules of the ancient relic battlefield. They knew that winning a battle would only get them a basic reward of ten Blood Coins and thirty points of Heavenly Ladder score. As for extra rewards, they would only be given by the ruler if they performed exceptionally well. But if they lost and died too many times, they would suffer extremely severe punishment.

  Under the balance of interests, they naturally know how to choose. Except for the late-stage ghost, none of the other four people are willing to take the risk of being severely punished by the ruler in order to protect the ghost's development and sacrifice their own interests.

  "So give up?" The prophet asked hesitantly after a moment of silence.

  "Surrender! I've died twice already, and I don't want to die a third time!" For once, the spring spirit who never got along with the prophet didn't retort back, and they reached an agreement.

  "Give up, although continuing to fight may not be without hope of winning, but if we win that way, it can only be a miserable victory, let alone the possibility of losing, the cost is too great, and it's really not worth it." Seeing that no one had any objections, the leader Zeus finally made the decision.

  The next moment, under Wu Sheng's stunned gaze in 2009, the heroes of Ye Mei's side surrendered one after another and chose to give up directly.

  Tianhui Fang wins!
