Chapter 35: The Blood Ox Sword Saint

  "This guy..."

  Two Nordic pirates and Stifler have been stunned, as veterans, under the powerful life energy of the World Tree, they have transformed into many DOTAs heroes, but never like this.

  It was as if they had suddenly merged into one entity, their spirits and energies perfectly harmonized, unlike others who simply transformed into a certain DOTA hero model.

  What left the deepest impression on them was Su Hong's extremely bloodthirsty and violent gaze.

  They were originally going to question Su Hong's choice, after all, the Divine Warrior hero is not a very stable late-game hero. Although his DPS firepower output is very strong, he can be called a solo king, but at the same time, the Divine Warrior is also very easy to control. If the opposing hero has equipment like Green Flag and Push Stick, it's even easier to kite the Divine Warrior. In short, in their view, the Divine Warrior hero is not a wise choice.

  However, after being swept by Su Hong's extremely bloodthirsty gaze, the Nordic pirate and the snake stabber suddenly trembled in their hearts and obediently shut their mouths.

  "I'm baffled, this guy looked quite refined, how did he suddenly go berserk? And what's with the divine warrior that emerged from his body? It all feels rather strange." The North Sea pirate couldn't help but think to himself.

  "Time is pressing, what are you still standing there for? Follow me to the next road!" Su Hong also sensed the abnormality in his body, but after checking his physical attributes and finding nothing unusual, he didn't think much of it anymore.

  After a brief moment of contemplation, Su Hong utilized the initial game gold from each battle to purchase a set of Tree Eater, a healing ointment, two +3 Strength Goblin Power Gloves, and two Iron Branches. This way, he had both combat recovery items and a boost to his primary attribute, making for a decent starting outfit.

  However, according to Su Hong's original intention, there was a more radical idea, which was to directly purchase a speed boot and carry out a strong online suppression. As for the recovery, let the two teammates, Northern Europe Pirate and Snake Stab, take care of it. However, after some thought, Su Hong resolutely abandoned this tempting idea. It wasn't that it couldn't be done, but rather because Northern Europe Pirate and Snake Stab were both randomly matched teammates who didn't know each other well and had their own private motives. Letting them sacrifice their own interests might lead to their backlash, which would be detrimental to team cooperation.

  After weighing the pros and cons, Su Hong didn't want to make more trouble for the sake of the overall situation.

  With the Wind Dancer in the form of a Nordic pirate and the Sand King in the form of a venomous snake, they arrived at the lower road army line. Su Hong raised his head to take a look around, only to be shocked to discover that the three heroes walking towards him were actually Sword Saint, Dark Shadow Demon, and Ice Maiden.

  The opponent actually prepares to fight head-on? What strong confidence!

  It is well known that for the Tianhui camp, due to geographical reasons, the lower road line is more advantageous for the Tianhui side who can pull the wild, while for the Ye Mei side, due to the disadvantage of the line, a head-on confrontation is not a wise choice.

  But in this battle, the opponent unexpectedly chose to go straight up and fight hard, which immediately disrupted Su Hong's plan.

  Originally, Su Hong thought that the Sword Saint, Dark Shadow Demon and Ice Girl on the opposite side would take the road, to ensure the development of the Sword Saint. This made Li Dairen choose a despicable hero like Black Dark Sage, just to avoid their edge. But who would have thought that the three people on the opposite side would directly come down to kill them.

  As a result, it became a matchup between the mid lane devil wizard and the queen of pain, while the dark sage and the bat knight went one-on-one. From a macro perspective, they didn't have an advantage.

  Mid laner doesn't need to be said, the two heroes of Demon Witch and Pain Queen have their own strengths and weaknesses. Whoever has the advantage after meeting depends on individual strength. However, it's difficult for Dark Sage to open up against Batrider, as Batrider is a ranged hero with an attack distance advantage. With Batrider's slow fuel skill, if Dark Sage doesn't position himself carefully, he might even get solo killed.

  As for Su Hong's lower road, it seemed to have the advantage of a strong army, but the situation was not optimistic either. The three people on the opposite side were recklessly charging forward, especially the Sword Saint who was at the forefront, opening up a huge distance with their own Dark Shadow Demon and Ice Girl, daring to supplement the knife online, completely disregarding Su Hong and others.

  "You've gone too far!" The Wind Chaser, disguised as a Nordic pirate, let out a cold hum, drew his bow and shot arrows at the Sword Saint opposite him. In an instant, he was shooting arrow after arrow, turning the Sword Saint into a porcupine, looking quite pitiful.

  However, the sword saint opposite him was grinning from ear to ear, ignoring the arrow wounds on his body. Instead, he stuck out his scarlet tongue and licked his lips, shouting wildly: "You bunch of weaklings, you'll be crying soon! With the Death God's curse around, I'm not afraid of you running away. Just wait, I'll make sure to kill you all until you cry for your fathers and mothers!"

  "Who are you trying to scare?!?" The Sand King, with his body transformed into a bloody aura, let out an angry roar and charged forward, ready to join forces with the Wind Dancer to attack the Sword Saint who was standing at the very front.

  "Don't be impulsive! Be careful, there's a trick!" Su Hong furrowed her brow, instinctively feeling that something was off, and just as she was about to stop him, it was already too late. She saw Sha Wang activate his piercing skill and charge right in front of the Sword Saint, stunning him on the spot.

  "Kill this guy! 1.65 seconds of stun time is not long, but it's not short either. The battle has just begun, and this hero's level is only one, with a maximum health value of 700 points. One round of concentrated fire and he's dead. This blood is ours!" The Nordic pirate transformed wind chaser showed an excited expression, raised his hand and shot another arrow. After seeing Su Hong standing still, unmoved, he couldn't help but slightly curl the corner of his mouth, clearly somewhat dissatisfied with Su Hong's on-the-spot reaction ability.

  "Hey! This guy is nothing much!" The Sand King, transformed from the snake, sneered with a smile, and also had a hint of disdain for Su Hong. He didn't care about Su Hong's orders at all, not only did he not retreat, but instead took a few more steps forward, almost face to face with the Sword Saint, fearing that someone else would get the first blood.

  A huge temptation is right in front of him, but Su Hong didn't make a move, always feeling that the opponent's position was too suspicious. If it wasn't for the Sword Saint being too careless, it would have been very likely that the opponent intentionally revealed a weakness, more like a carefully planned trap.

  Health points? Yeah, health points!

  Su Hong's eyes narrowed slightly, and she finally realized what was wrong. Under the continuous attacks of her own Wind Walker and Sand King, the opposing Sword Saint's life bar had only decreased by a small half. After taking another close look, the Sword Saint's initial blood volume was actually as high as 1,000 points!

  Do you know that a normal Sword Saint's initial HP is only 530 points, but this person's life value is actually over 1000 points, which is more than double the amount. Is this still an agility hero? It's completely a freakish blood cow!

  "Fall back! The Sword Saint across from us has undergone multiple Blood Energy Enhancements and his primary attribute is Strength, you won't be able to handle him!" Su Hong shouted loudly.

  Prompted by Su Hong's reminder, the two Nordic pirates and the snake also sensed that something was wrong. Their originally excited and flushed faces quickly turned pale, their eyes filled with terror and panic as they turned around and fled in a hurry.

  It's just a pity... it's too late now...

  At this moment, the Saint of Sword had already removed his dizzy state, and after slightly moving his somewhat stiff body, he immediately pounced on the Sand King closest to him.

  "Have you had enough of watching the show? Hurry up and come out to help me with the harvest!" Along with the Sword Saint's loud shout, the deliberately disjointed Dark Shadow Demon and Ice Maiden moved their feet and charged forward.

  "Shatter the shackles!"

  The dark demon rushed forward, with terrifying dark energy surging in his hand. With a raise of his hand, he banished the Sand King who was about to escape into another dimension. When the Sand King reappeared, two identical replicas appeared beside him. Although they only had 30% of the original's attack power, they still managed to beat the desperate Sand King into a sorry state.

  But that's not all, just as the Sand King was fleeing in desperation after being possessed by the Snake, the Ice Queen of Nightmare had already arrived, swinging her icy scepter and unleashing a cold ice magic spell that instantly activated and struck the Sand King.

  "Seal of Ice!"

  A massive block of ice suddenly froze the Sand King in place, unable to move or attack, only able to remain stationary and be slaughtered at will.

  "It's done!"

  The Sand King, who had transformed into a snake, regretted his earlier decision and closed his eyes in resignation. Although he still had sufficient health, he knew that the Sword Saint opposite him would not let go of this perfect opportunity.

  As expected, the Sword Saint opposite him sneered and launched the Sword Saint's signature skill without hesitation, Blade Storm!

  "Hoo-hoo-hoo!!!"

  Frightening sword blades danced and spun, forming a dragon whirlwind of swords that completely engulfed the fleeing Sand King, leaving no room for suspense. The Sand King was almost dismembered, letting out mournful cries as it fell to the ground, dead.

  “Firstblood！”

  The next moment, the ruthless and cold declaration of the master resounded throughout the ancient relic battlefield, also casting a shadow in the hearts of the Tianhui faction.
