Chapter 342: Chapter 319: Unicorn Blinding VS Hive Blindness

The South Korean player’s Unicorn Army halted briefly outside the battle’s warning line. Then, as the female player on the Unicorn Boss gave a hand signal, the Elite Unicorn Army behind her thundered forward like silver tanks towards Da Fei sitting in the street!

—System Prompt: South Korean player Li Yinzhu has launched an attack on you! The battle has begun!

Da Fei’s heart tightened. Indeed, they were charging directly! But whether this was an act of bravado, foolishness, or sheer awesomeness, would soon be revealed!

Da Fei raised his right hand high and slammed it down—*twang!* The simultaneous strumming of the bowstrings reverberated through the streets, with hundreds of sharp arrows piercing the air, shooting toward the surging army! The Secret Archers had the longest range and rightly took the lead in the first round of attack.

And in that very instant, a golden light enveloped the Unicorn Army. Amid the street full of jumping damage, evasion, and deflection red letters, various Healing Light and Protective Light spells appeared in succession!

Da Fei was so shocked his eyes narrowed! Not a single Unicorn fell in the first round of the Secret Archers’ shooting! The legend was true; when facing professional players, one must control the troops and concentrate fire, eliminating foes one by one. Relying on the computer’s automatic smart (lazy) fire allocation was a big no-no! Truly, the rumors didn’t deceive! But so what? If my gaming skills are no match for AI in strategy games, I’ve always believed the computer’s prowess. I only play games in smart mode, and don’t bother with ones that don’t have it. Too tiring!

Although Da Fei had no clue what skills or treasures the opponents possessed, nor how high these Unicorns’ Blood Defense was, he knew he had to unleash the big guns now! With the Unicorns’ charging speed, Da Fei’s Shooter Corps wouldn’t have many more chances to fire!

—System Prompt: Warning! Are you sure you want to use the Divine Artifact Destiny Coin? Once used, you will be in Absolute Misfortune for the next month, unaffected by any lucky items or altar blessings.

Da Fei let out a long sigh of despondency. Who would’ve thought a random encounter with a professional player would force me to whip out the big guns? Ah, I’m lacking in level!

Awesome mode engaged—confirmed!

A great rainbow-colored light soared and covered the entire street where Da Fei was positioned!

And in this very instant, the progress bar that had been stuck at 70% for opening the manhole cover suddenly maxed out!

—System Prompt: Congratulations! You have successfully opened the entrance to the Ancient City Ruins sewer! Unknown dangers and treasures will provide you with more opportunities and challenges!

Da Fei’s eyes shrank with disbelief! As soon as I activated Invincible Luck, the manhole cover opened immediately! The legend that lock-picking is related to luck is true after all! But isn’t this a joke? Just a mere manhole cover, yet I had to use both my God-level Reconnaissance Technique and Invincible Luck? This is madness!

Gazing at the two-person wide black hole beneath his bottom, then glancing up at the Unicorn Cavalry charging forward like a storm surge, Da Fei instantly felt calm! Even the typically brave Orcs would dig escape tunnels in cities, so why should he care? Ha! Hahaha! Come, try to take me down!

...

At the Freedom Wings Team command center, as the battle commenced, everyone was intently staring at the big screen.

Li Yinzhu’s heart pounded like crazy! Although she practiced daily against professional players and achieved decent results, facing such a bizarre opponent was a first. To put it simply, this nervousness was fear: fear of the unknown strength and mysterious Divine Artifact of her foe.

However, matches aren’t always one-on-one! Especially on the battlefield of a National War, where there’s no time to scout opponents; victory must be determined in an instant. That’s why the coach said that the highest realm of a professional level wasn’t technique, but confidence! Always maintain the confidence of inevitable victory.

But how easy is that? Confidence comes from the accumulation of continuous wins in matches, and that’s what she lacked most.

The troops reached the shooting range of the Secret Archers behind Da Fei, but they did not fire. Did he intend to shoot after I got closer? Ha, that’s truly regrettable. Once I’m near, he’ll only have one chance to shoot, not a second. Does he plan to rely on ambush troops to decide the outcome?

Well then, bring it on!

With a twang of the bowstrings, arrows were unleashed simultaneously from windows and his rear battle formation!

With nerves stretched to a taut string, Li Yinzhu reacted instantly, activating the full set of treasure skills, Holy Sanctuary, full group Deflecting Missiles magic, and unit Healing Skill—all deployed!

Despite Li Yinzhu’s fine control, the scattered arrow rain failed to inflict casualties on even a single Elite Unicorn! For a moment, the entire command center shook their heads with a smirk: "Amateur players are just amateurs!"

In that instant, Li Yinzhu’s tension and fear vanished! Right, amateurs are amateurs. He set up this formation simply because he hadn’t met real opponents and was oblivious of the heights of heaven and earth! Full-speed charge! Flatten him!

Just then, a puzzled voice came from behind her coach Jin Xiyong: "This damage is obviously off? How many troops is he firing?"

Park Dong-hoon suddenly burst out laughing: "We’ve been duped, that’s an Illusion Army!"

Cui Yonghao exclaimed: "Does this mean trouble?"

Jin Xiyong laughed, "At the very least, he tricked Little Zhu into activating her treasure skills early!"

At this moment, the entire command center burst into an uproar: "A big rainbow! He activated the Divine Artifact God of Luck!"

And then, from inside the building and atop the roof, a torrent of fiery chains descended and intertwined into a dense web of firepower. The flame chains exploded upon each Unicorn, emitting dazzling sparks before rebounding five times with diminishing power! Suddenly, the entire street became a sea of flames!

Under such concentrated damage and dazzling scenes, Li Yinzhu’s attempts to recover became frantic and disorganized.

And then, the second volley of arrows from the Druids and Secret Archers came in quick succession! Five or six Elite Unicorns collapsed with a bang at their follow-up attacks! Sure enough, though handing operations entirely to the computer’s intelligent automatic allocation has a downside of not being able to concentrate fire, its advantage is an excellent ability to finish off stragglers!

"Tons of damage!" "He actually has so many Banshees?" exclaimed the shocked voices all around the Tatazu command center at the sight of the damage numbers filling the screen!

"Great Blindness Skill!" At this critical moment, coach Jin Xiyong shouted loudly!

"Charge!" cried Li Yinzhu, riding on the Unicorn King! The Unicorn King’s body was enveloped in the swirling green light of the Regeneration Technique as it caught up with the front lines of the charge with unbelievable speed. Its golden horn suddenly radiated brilliant light! It wasn’t just extreme darkness that could blind; extreme brightness could also produce excessively blinding effects!

Indeed, the Unicorn King’s blinding effect on the entire field couldn’t be dispelled; it could instantly reverse the battlefield, even causing Undead immune to darkness blindness to falter before this brilliant light, dealing considerable damage! The might of a BOSS-level creature couldn’t be measured by regular troop data. Allowing players to bring mission-state troops into the match was truly underhanded.

And at that very moment, a buzzing sound filled the air above the street—is this?

—Boom! With a huge explosion, the Unicorn King’s golden light blossomed, and the entire big screen was a flash of white light!

Then, the white light on the big screen suddenly went black!

—System Prompt: Your hero and units were hit by Da Fei’s Vice Hero Alicia’s "Swarm Disturbance" magic, suffering 374 magic damage. You and your units have entered blinding, frenzy states! Your units stopped advancing and entered a state of chaos!

Hive Blindness! Swarm Frenzy! Both statuses affected the entire army! Even the BOSS was hit!

In an instant, the Tatazu command center erupted again! Even the three always-calm coaches were so shocked they leapt from their seats!

To the Korea National Professional Team, focused on the Elf Clan for the National War, no one knew better than the Korean professional players about the Swarm Disturbance magic of the Level 0 unit Flower Demon.

The magic itself had minimal power, but should it trigger its low-probability blinding or frenzy effects, it could unexpectedly turn the tide of battle. Particularly when the opponent’s melee units go into frenzy—they not only lose control, but also turn their blades on allies!

This Divine Artifact’s heaven-defying feature seems to turn small probability special skills into huge for-certain events, even attaining 100% effectiveness! And its effects last for a day, equating to 2.4 hours! His boast of winning the championship wasn’t baseless!

Although the screen has gone black, the damage data scrolling hasn’t stopped. The units were in blind frenzy! Attacking allies!

"Are we going to lose?" Li Yinzhu asked in a daze, her voice soft and delicate.

"Impossible!" Jin Xiyong promptly regained composure, "We also blinded them. With the Unicorn King’s Blood Defense and Magic Resistance, it should survive through this period of chaos. As a professional player, you shouldn’t be discouraged by such little setbacks."

Park Dong-hoon nodded, "Indeed. Moreover, you forced him to unleash his championship-winning Divine Artifact. Even if he advances in this match, he won’t achieve much in the following rounds, so it could be seen as indirectly eliminating him."

Cui Yonghao quietly mused, "I just want to know if in the next match, he’ll have the Divine Artifact’s Misfortune status."

Li Yinzhu declared loudly, "I won’t let him have a next time; I’ll finish him off now!"

The darkness gradually faded, revealing faint street images on the screen as the troops regained their status. Li Yinzhu immediately re-energized and charged forward again!

And there was Da Fei, still calmly positioned ahead, as serene as a stone Buddha!

The command center buzzed again: "He’s not running during the blindness? He could slip into any building, right?"

...

At that moment, Da Fei was very calm! Calmly gritting his teeth! Truly, although the moment of blinding white nearly made Da Fei dive into the manhole beneath him to escape, Alicia’s sudden swarm magic reminded Da Fei—in the realm of Invincible Luck, nothing was impossible! If I escape, won’t he also escape? If I don’t take him down, I’d be letting down my activation of the Divine Artifact! (To be continued.
