Chapter 64: Chapter 64: So This Is How You Want to Play?


"A thief?" Lu Ran saw someone come in and glanced at the other party’s information, somewhat surprised.


Even regular professions have come running in.


But in no time, Lu Ran reacted.


He suddenly realized: "So that’s it, trying to use the thief’s stealth skills to launch a sneak attack and take me out in one burst, huh."


The thief on the opposite side was also bewildered at this moment.


He did have that thought, but upon raising his eyes, he saw standing opposite was actually a level twenty-five Undead Mage?


He even wondered if he had entered the wrong room.


"A level twenty-five Undead Mage?" Alex raised an eyebrow and said with a strange expression.


"Yes." Lu Ran nodded casually.


The countdown had already begun.


Alex frowned and said, "Although I don’t understand how you managed to kill those two wastes before, I won’t make the same mistake. I will kill you within the first thirty seconds of the battle!"


"Oh." Lu Ran responded lazily.


This indifferent and casual attitude made Alex grit his teeth hard.


Drawing out a bright green dagger immediately.


It was clearly poisoned.


Lu Ran glanced at the opponent and directly pulled out his Magic Staff and began summoning.


The best way to deal with the team’s Assassin Series’ invisibility skills is to stand and let them attack!


The summoned items are meant to absorb damage.


With the Transplanting Flowers and Wood attribute, Lu Ran couldn’t possibly die!


The first thing he chose to summon was the ancient golem, a tank-class summoned item; even if he summoned a large number, Alex’s burst would be of no use.


At this moment.


Alex also seemed to understand something, his eyes widened greatly.


"You... you can infinitely summon ancient golems!" he shouted in surprise.


Lu Ran couldn’t even be bothered to respond, continuing his summoning.


"Hmph, what’s the use! No matter how many of these ancient golems there are, they can’t see me! The Undead Mage has no skills to detect or break stealth status; once you’re dead, these foolish things will disappear along with you!" Alex said with a sinister smile.


Though he was extremely shocked by Lu Ran’s ability, that was all.


This had no effect on him!


Lu Ran glanced at Alex, amused, and said, "You didn’t think I relied on these ancient golems to kill those two wastes before, did you?"


Hearing this, Alex was startled.


He immediately reacted.


Indeed!


No matter how many ancient golems there were, Land and Baron should have been able to handle them!


Although the ancient golems have high life values and high defense, their movement speed and attack frequency are very low, just tank-type summoned items!


They could completely ignore them!


The real target to kill was still just a level twenty-five Undead Mage!


But Land and Baron failed to do so and were killed instead!


Thinking of this, Alex’s heart twitched hard, just like Baron before, he guessed that the Undead Mage surely had other means!


At this moment, the three-minute preparation time ended, and the barrier of the safe zone disappeared!


Alex looked up, and during this time, Lu Ran had summoned nearly a hundred ancient golems, densely packed around Lu Ran!


"Can they stop me?" Alex couldn’t hesitate anymore, he immediately went invisible, disappearing from the spot.


Lu Ran, amongst the ancient golems, looked around, then patiently waited, even feeling somewhat bored.


A few seconds later.


Thunk!


Lu Ran received an attack, and Alex, due to initiating the attack, dispelled his stealth status, materializing behind Lu Ran.


The dagger directly stabbed into the back room, from bottom to top, fully embedded!


"Awooo~" Lu Ran wailed miserably, jumping three feet high on the spot.


Lu Ran’s face turned green, unsure if it was due to the poison effect of the dagger.


He leaped aside, clamping his legs together, covering with one hand, his mouth twitching.


"Alright, alright, you want to play like this?" Lu Ran’s internal fury surged!


Couldn’t you just use the backstab skill properly, was there a need to go so far?


Alex was also dumbfounded.


His backstab, with buffs like venom, backstab, strong attack, critical strike, didn’t manage to one-shot this level twenty-five Undead Mage!


Moreover...


This Undead Mage didn’t lose any health!


The health bar didn’t budge, not even a drop of health lost!


"Invincible..." Alex was dumbfounded.


Infinite summon of ancient golems, he thought wasn’t much of an impact, but being attacked without losing health, what kind of monster is this!


He wanted to charge forward again but suddenly realized his feet were bound by Undead Touch, unable to move.


But he wasn’t anxious, just stared at Lu Ran, planning to rush up for another round as soon as the binding effect of Undead Touch ended, although he couldn’t understand why the surrounding ancient golems didn’t seize this opportunity to fire at him.


But a few seconds later, Alex discovered the Undead Touch beneath his feet was still there!


He still couldn’t move!


"What does this mean? Why can’t I move?" Alex said in shock.


"Move my ass, now is the time for my revenge!" Lu Ran cursed.


Then he raised his palm, continually summoning Skeleton Soldiers, coming out two by two.


Occasionally replenishing an Undead Touch to ensure Alex couldn’t move.


Then, a large number of Skeleton Soldiers rushed up.


But this time it wasn’t a Corpse Explosion, but a swarm grabbing Alex’s arms, pinning him in place.


Alex was bewildered, not understanding what Lu Ran intended.


But when he saw part of the Skeleton Soldiers, raising their rusted short swords bizarrely, making thrusting motions, slightly tilting upwards, hunching their bodies, moving behind him, Alex’s expression changed drastically!


He realized something was wrong.


He began struggling frantically, his dagger ceaselessly slashing the surrounding Skeleton Soldiers.


But there were just too many of these Skeleton Soldiers!


Having managed to free his hands, he hadn’t killed many before more Skeleton Soldiers grabbed his arms again.


From behind, the Skeleton Soldiers stealthily approached.


The rusted short swords, corroded by time, though the blade was worn down, had become irregularly serrated due to corrosion, nearly a foot in length, making one’s liver quiver with just a glance!


"Kill me, kill me now!" Alex roared in anguish, struggling in pain.


But Lu Ran showed no reaction.


"I beg you, kill me, just kill me, I know I was wrong, I..."


Thump~


Alex’s scream abruptly stopped, his mouth agape, a sound likened to someone clutching his throat trying to scream but unable to.


What followed was true torture.


Thunk~


Thunk~


Thunk~


A portion of the Skeleton Soldiers controlled Alex while the others excitedly attacked from behind; the attack wasn’t high, but the floating damage numbers were all yellow, indicative of weak point attack damage!


For a full eight minutes!


A full eight minutes!


By this time, Alex regretted so deeply that tears silently slipped down his cheeks, wishing only for death, and regretting not employing the backstab on Lu Ran normally.


Otherwise, he wouldn’t be dying so painfully.
