Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Pzzt!

As the Black Hole was activated, all the elements in the area swirled into it, disabling all magic attacks or any attacks that were related to Elemental manipulation.

Finally, The Dark Knight Commander Rakoff understood why he was feeling uneasy as he was observing Majestic Hero’s electric energy earlier—the compressed electric elements possessed tremendous power on its own and a clash between two sources of such energy would result in a surge of tremendous static energy, which would then lead to a static explosion that disabled all magic within the exploding area.

As he and his dragon were being sucked in by the Black Hole, Rakoff quickly released two long-ranged attacks at the Black Hole but they were all decimated into particles as they zoomed toward it.

The black dragon beneath him had a much harder time struggling with the Black Hole—its Dragon’s Breath was broken down into particles while its wings were not able to push itself away from the enormous swirling Black Hole!

Qin Ruo and his crew were also affected by the Black Hole even when they were still set as the same team via the game system. If they did not retreat thirty meters away earlier before Majestic Hero released his electric surge, they would probably be absorbed into the Black Hole as their barriers and shields would be decimated into particles.

As they held their ground and stabilized their bodies, they lay their eyes on Majestic Hero who was flying beneath Rakoff and the black Colossal Dragon.

Majestic Hero could only last a few more seconds.

Qin Ruo understood that more than anyone else.

“Now!”

Seeing that Rakoff was unable to do anything against the approaching Majestic Hero, he barked a command and Judge, Homme Fatale, Black God, Violet Orchid and Slayer’s Heart all dashed toward the area below Rakoff at the same time.

“Do it!” Majestic Hero shouted as he landed near Qin Ruo and his crew.

Rakoff was now a few meters above everyone. The enormous dragon’s stomach was also showing just above their heads.

Majestic Hero quickly gulped down a bottle of Nightstar Potion, which Qin Ruo handed to him earlier, as Rakoff and his dragon, sensing a weakened Majestic Hero, after casting the powerful Black Hole, inched toward the ground.

With a loud thump, several buildings were crushed by the falling dragon.

In that instant, Qin Ruo and his teammates started their assault!

The Angel let go of Majestic Hero and put his hands on his chest. Then a powerful ray of Holy Light beamed from the sky and shot right at the Dark Knight Commander and black Colossal Dragon.

Roarrr!!

The black Colossal Dragon let out a roar.

Although the Shadow-type Colossal Dragon hated anything that was Holy-type, it was also most vulnerable when faced with a Holy-type attack. Therefore, in an instant, it was badly burnt by the Angel’s raw Holy Light. Its enormous body rocked back and forth in the narrow streets but was unable to even land its tail attacks on Majestic Hero.

At the meantime, there were several human warriors inching closer to the Colossal Dragon.

Roaarrr!

Another long anguish roar was heard again.

Slayer’s Heart, Judge and two other warriors from Hall of Heroes activated Dragon’s Ascension as they dashed toward the dragon. Warriors’ skills did not require Mana as they only needed to call forth their own physical strength. Therefore, they were not affected by the Black Hole.

Boom! Boom!!!

Four powerful blows landed on the black Colossal Dragon from a close-range.

Dragon’s Ascension...

These four unforgiving potent strikes crushed the dragon’s chin. As it whimpered and rocked around in agony, its master “Rakoff” was thrown off from its back.

“Charge!!”

As Subjugator let out a loud battle cry, six warriors surrounded and dished out several close-quarter attacks consecutively at the black Colossal Dragon still trapped by the Black Hole. At the same time, Dark Vajra, Shadowfox, Mutant Violetfox, Two-headed Poison Scorpion also rushed onward to deliver a collaborated strike at the huge dragon.

At that moment, everyone seemed to have forgotten about the Dark Knight Commander. Every close-ranged champions and pets focused all their attacks at the Colossal Dragon.

“Despicable humans!”

A thunderous voice echoed in the air.

Seeing how the humans focused their attacks on his mount, Rakoff finally realized what the humans’ plan was. Overcame by anger, Rakoff decided to forgo resisting the Black Hole and utilize the pull of the Black Hole and swiftly dashed toward Majestic Hero, who was handling the Black Hole.

Rakoff had seen through Majestic Hero’s Black Hole’s tricks—a magic that could release powerful electromagnetic pulse that nullified all the elemental magic in the area. But it could not deal any significant damage to living beings.

Rakoff was a Tier 6 Warrior-type Megaboss. He would not hesitate to attack his prey if there was no Elementalist in the area.

However...

Qin Ruo had foreseen this earlier.

As the warriors were collaborating their attacks on the black Colossal Dragon, a group Elementalists were hiding behind Majestic Hero, locking their eyes on the Dark Knight Commander Rakoff.

As Rakoff was about to hurl out his attack, Majestic Hero immediately canceled his magic.

As the Mana was cut off from Majestic Hero’s hands, the Black Hole immediately disappeared into nothingness. As the electromagnetic pulses were fading away, the various Elements started to reappear in the area.

“...”

As the absorption of the Black Hole disappeared, Rakoff’s gliding speed was inevitably decreased. Before Rakoff was able to adjust his mind to prepare for a long-ranged attack, the mighty army that was hiding behind Majestic Hero immediately took action.

The elements were now completely refilled in the field.

The first to act was Homme Fatale.

“Electric Chain!”

A few moments after Black Hole disappeared, Homme Fatale’s Magic Scroll flashed into a blinding zapping chain. Homme Fatale held the Electric Chain on one end while the other entwined Rakoff’s body.

In an instant, Homme Fatale had helped everyone on the team to restrain the Dark Knight Commander. His flawless timing and accuracy in dealing paralyzing damage on a Tier 6 Megaboss surprised and impressed Majestic Hero.

Majestic Hero could not help but look at Dinosaurcerer who was fused with the Deathfiend Spider and sighed. Having someone of this caliber on their side was indeed a great help. Their assistance had made a lot of things much easier than doing it themselves. He wondered how did the recently ranked-up Tier 5 Dinosaurcerer recruit a Tier 5 veteran Champion to his Violent Army Clan.

***

As soon as Rakoff was restrained, Qin Ruo swiftly dashed next to him.

Twelve Frostramparts activated.

Twelve walls of Frostramparts instantly appeared around Rakoff and Qin Ruo. The freezing cold air from the ramparts had lessened the dreadful pressure from the black Colossal Dragon.

To handle a Boss of this caliber, Qin Ruo used his Special Roasted Snails and Darkfrost Potion before he made a move. Just to be sure, he even gulped down a bottle of Giant Tree Sap.

He even summoned Poochie back from the group that was attacking the dragon.

Clone Shadowstrike!

Poochie dished out the attack, which could stun Galbis for nine seconds, at the Dark Knight Commander. Rakoff appeared to be much stronger than that—Poochie was only able to deal a six-second stun on him.

“Good one!”

Homme Fatales was waiting for this golden opportunity. Without any hesitation, he charged up five flashes of lightning in his hands.

As the stun effect wore off.

“Go, Electric Webs!”

Fateless, who was busy providing information from his recon efforts was impressed at the perfect harmony in Qin Ruo and Homme Fatale’s joint attack.

The Shadowfox’s Clone Shadowstrike then followed by Homme Fatale’s Electric Webs.

As Rakoff was restrained again, several Compressed Frost Bullets were shot out of Qin Ruo’s staff.

It was quite unfortunate for Rakoff that Majestic Hero had this two monstrosities fighting along his side.

From the start, Rakoff’s terrifyingly powerful offensive abilities were completely ignored by the group’s plan. It was the same for the black Colossal Dragon.

Fateless turned to check on Slayer’s Heart, Subjugator, and Judge.

Even though the Black Hole had disappeared, these three and Dinosaurcerer were now able to continue with their attacks without limitation.

Slayer’s Heart and Subjugator attacked ruthlessly and continuously. The former rained his ice cold blades on its giant wings like a relentless hailstorm while the latter fought fire with fire in front of the dragon, tanking its Dragon Breath head on.

In the meantime, Dinosaurcerer dealt poison attacks at the dragon on the roof, weakening its defense and attacks while calling upon countless waves of Explosive Venomspiders crawling toward the dragon from all directions.

Then, Fateless laid his eyes on Shades’ team that was holding off various Underworld patrols at the perimeters.

Fateless finally was able to rest easy knowing that if everyone maintained the momentum like this, it would be a matter of time before Rakoff finally got defeated. Before they finally received the rewards for defeating this formidable foe—countless valuable loots and Divinities and also that fabled Ring of Vengeance, the Dark Gold grade ring that possessed double attributes, a ring that was valued by every class in H&G.

Even Fateless found himself intrigued with owning a legendary ring like that.

If he got his hand on the ring, he would be able to stay in Stealth Mode for a long period of time, without spending any potion... that would be a great advantage that the ring could offer to any Bandit.

Unfortunately, Fallen Angels could only acquire just one ring from the Dark Knight Commander. He was not too worried though. If the ring fell into the hands of the clan, he could always find the right opportunity to borrow it and get a taste of its powers.

As glimmers of hope and anticipation beamed in Fateless’s eyes, they suddenly shrank as they noticed something far away.

From the direction where the city walls stood, there were over hundreds of floating dots inching closer toward them.
