The Boss Behind The Game

Although there were five alliance guilds to assist, the Myth Guild was still under great pressure as they were facing the sortie from the other six guilds who spared no effort.

Looking at the health bar of the fortress gate that had dropped more than half, Gu Yu's gaze became firm.

"Lingtian, shoot at their source of attacks to help reduce the incoming pressure!"

The long-haired man next to him nodded, took one step forward and slowly lifted his dark green Cloud Reaching Bow. He then began to aim at the Water Turrets that were located at the back of the Siege Guild's army.

As the first runner-up of the Archery Trial, Mo Lingtian's archery skill was undoubtedly powerful. Every flaming arrow released by him managed to take down a vulnerable water element Mage at the back.

Mo Lingtian's performance immediately caught the attention of the Siege Guild. Soon, assassins snuck up to him and slashed their sharp daggers toward him without warning.

Seeing this, a smile appeared at the corner of Mo Lingtian's mouth. Then, he tilted his body and the Sliding ability was activated. His figure slid a few metres forward, easily avoiding several fatal attacks.

Those assassins were shocked. But before they managed to react, the assassin players of the Myth Guild had approached them and the instant burst of damage slew them into white rays.

Mo Lingtian's eyes turned sharp after glancing at the Siege Guild army in front of him. He then ran forward through the gaps in between the players of his own guild. As he was running, he would lift his long bow from time to time to aim and shoot.

Every time after he shot an arrow, he would turn around and change his attacking position decisively. He did not even need to look at the flying trajectory of the arrow. Yet the arrow could always hit the target accurately.

His running attacks made it impossible for the assassin players to spot his location accurately. His strong killing ability had also surprised the audience.

"This is how the true champion of the Archery Trial performs! He is really awesome! Ye Chen is definitely not his rival!"

"That's awesome! He did not even look back after releasing an arrow and could predict the next safe attacking spot. This gaming guru has been keeping a low profile. Impressive! Impressive!"

"It used to be said in the forum that assassins are mage killers. I think he is the real mage killer! He's so powerful!"

…...

Everyone could imagine that if Mo Lingtian was born in ancient times, he would definitely be a valiant general as he had such a powerful personal ability. By just relying on his personal ability, the number of mage players behind the Siege army were constantly decreasing and all the assassins were helpless.

Mo Lingtian turned around immediately after releasing another arrow. He then walked toward a pre-selected shooting spot.

However, at this moment, a burning arrow appeared from the front.

Mo Lingtian's face froze and he activated Sliding.

"Huh?" Mo Lingtian was stunned as he suddenly noticed that the arrow was not aiming at him. It landed at a spot which was three metres away from him.

Thus, he immediately activated his Eagle Eyes and found out that Ye Chen was running toward him with a longbow in his hand.

Upon seeing Ye Chen's silhouette, a hint of gloominess appeared in Mo Lingtian's eyes.

He was conceited with his archery skills. Thus, losing to Ye Chen in archery was a disgrace to him and he was always ashamed of it.

Mo Lingtian would've been more motivated if Ye Chen had won with his real abilities. However, Ye Chen was just a random shooter. Hence, Mo Lingtian refused to accept the fact that he was defeated by him!

Mo Lingtian's eyes revealed a trace of disdain as he saw Ye Chen running toward him. He slowly raised his long bow and aimed at Ye Chen. Then, he shot an arrow after charging.

Ye Chen who was at a distance noticed this and immediately activated Sliding. He barely managed to avoid the arrow.

Mo Lingtian was not surprised by the fact that Ye Chen could avoid his attack. After all, the Sliding ability attached to this profession was meant to use to dodge skill attacks.

As Ye Chen's silhouette was closing in, Mo Lingtian began to predict Ye Chen's movement path. He even took into account the Sliding distance this time. Then, he shot an arrow again.

However, to Mo Lingtian's surprise, Ye Chen did not activate the Sliding ability. This arrow was wrongly predicted and it landed in front of Ye Chen.

Seeing this, surprise flashed in Mo Lingtian's eyes. But deep in his heart, he was still calm.

The cultivation of the mental state was also extremely important for the cultivation of archery. Even slight changes in mentality would affect the accuracy of the arrows.

In addition, Mo Lingtian never felt that he had lost to Ye Chen. After all, he was the true archer.

By then, the distance between them was less than 15 meters. As Mo Lingtian raised his longbow, Ye Chen who was running also slowly raised his longbow.

Two flaming arrows were shot at the same time.

"Crack!"

A line of '-110' bloody words appeared above Ye Chen's head. His health points were reduced by more than half. Meanwhile, an assassin from the Demolition Guild who was at a distance was beaten by him into a white ray and disappeared in place.

At this moment, Ye Chen was undoubtedly depressed as failure by fate was always saddening.

Mo Lingtian scorned as he saw that Ye Chen was already close to his death. Once again, he pulled an arrow out from his back and placed it on the bow. He then pulled the bow and aimed, wanting to kill Ye Chen this time.

A cunning look appeared in Ye Chen's eyes as the arrow was being shot. He immediately activated the Sliding ability and leaned back, sliding three meters forward and appeared next to Mo Lingtian.

"Daze!"

Ye Chen used his longbow as a weapon and struck a blow to Mo Lingtian's chest.

[Got stunned by a skill (Daze Attack), remain in a daze for a second!]

The appearance of the game message left Mo Lingtian in shock. Isn't this an ability that is cultivated by close combat character class from the Cultivation Pavilion? As an archer, why did he learn this skill?

Before Mo Lingtian could figure it out, the back of his head was hit by Ye Chen forcefully. He fell to the ground as he was freed from the dizzy state.

"You…"

Before Mo Lingtian could complete his sentence, Ye Chen yelled excitedly,

"The Fallen Slash!"

Accompanied by the red flames appearing on the longbow, the blow landed forcefully on Mo Lingtian's body who was caught off guard, resulting in 68 points of damage.

Mo Lingtian who did a double take was shocked and furious. However, Ye Chen once again applied his close combat skill and slashed toward him. He quickly activated Sliding, wanting to distance himself from Ye Chen.

But when Mo Lingtian activated his Sliding skill, Ye Chen immediately activated his Sliding skill as well to close in on him. The longbow was being held in his hand as a weapon and once again, he hit Mo Lingtian right in his face with it.

At this moment, Mo Lingtian's state of mind was greatly affected. Even though he could kill Ye Chen who was about to die by just shooting an arrow, Ye Chen did not give him the opportunity to do so. He had been following him closely and applied his close combat skills all the way.

This made Mo Lingtian feel down and depressed. It's a competition between two archers. Is it really fair to fight like this!?

"Ah! Get away from me!" Mo Lingtian could no longer stand it. He raised his longbow and waved.

"Once again, daze!" as the longbows collided, Ye Chen's skill had cooled down and Mo Lingtian was stunned again. Then, he grabbed the longbow with both his hands and smashed it at Mo Lingtian's face, turning him into a white ray.
