Chapter 1299: Chapter 53: Group Members Die

"Xin Lan, trap her with the Ice Formation; everyone else, attack!" Tang Zheng kicked away the panicked guests coming his way and charged towards Cinderella as the grand battle erupted.

Li Xinlan’s ability activated; all the liquor bottles in the lobby exploded, splashing liquor that transformed into icy spikes shot at Cinderella. Water also gushed from her wristwatch, instantly freezing and bursting with cold, trying to envelop Cinderella in a sculpture of ice.

Dong Zixuan, not receiving orders, held back from unleashing magma and prepared to launch a physical attack, but was stopped by Mu Nianqi.

"Stay back and support from a distance!" Mu Nianqi didn’t mind currying favor; for someone like the policewoman with an excess sense of justice, it was beneficial to make an ally.

Covered in a black cape, the Ghost Reaper appeared behind Jing Lan and floated towards Cinderella. His sickle swung through the air, releasing several ghosts that screamed and charged at her, causing mental disruptions.

Zhao Dong Tao, feeling obligated to fight ardently as his friend was the group leader and not wanting to embarrass him, activated his floating cannon.

Above, from the ceiling, several large metal gun barrels emerged and launched a barrage of cannon fire. The ground shook with a thunderous roar as cannon shells hit the floor, causing stones and dust to fly everywhere.

"Don’t use range skills!" Dantai released a mental impact and yelled, as Dong Tao’s action had affected their own.

"Sorry!" Zhao Dong Tao was flustered and felt dejected for causing more chaos than help.

Lin Weiguo and Pang Meiqin closed in for an attack, but missed.

With so many guests in the lobby, Teng Yuangxiang finally had a chance to use her ability. She brainwashed a few puppets and directed them to attack Cinderella.

Cinderella paid no attention to these attacks. Tapping the ground with her toe, her flying crystal shoes lifted her up easily like a lark. She flung her fine sword, piercing her sister’s throat and pinning her to the ground.

Ruan Feifei hurled a Thunderball. In mid-air, it grew into an electric net and enveloped Cinderella.

A Rose Crystal Shield popped out, blocking the lightning. Cinderella calmly pulled out the sword, twirling it to shake off the blood.

Quicksand poured from Mu Nianqi’s wristwatch, slithering like a snake towards Cinderella, then expanding into Death Quicksand, trying to capture her ankles.

Bai Guo turned invisible, but didn’t rashly attack. Tang Zheng glanced at her, noting her actions. Ai Yixin, having transformed into diamonds, aggressively attacked Cinderella, trying to prove her worth and the drive not to be marginalized after defeating Sha Ou.

Cinderella dodged Mu Nianqi’s Northern Wind Ring and narrowly avoided Pang Meiqin’s chainsaw blade. Suddenly, she turned and fixed her gaze on her, shooting a pink light beam from her eyes.

Pang Meiqin clumsily dodged. Noticing the woman’s agility, Cinderella immediately changed her target to Ai Yixin.

Ai Yixin, relying on her Diamond Shield, was ready to endure the hit and then restrain Cinderella. However, when the light beam hit, it emitted a sizzle and black smoke started rising, branding a heart-shaped mark on her chest.

Ai Yixin’s mind went blank. She suddenly turned and, wielding a curved knife, slashed at Lin Weiguo.

"Are you crazy?" Old Soldier, caught off guard, got struck, his metal armor cut into.

"She’s been charmed!" Mu Nianqi hurriedly warned. "Everyone be careful, that kind of light beam can bewitch the mind!"

This was Cinderella’s skill, Misleading Consciousness. If not dispelled promptly, the affected target would become her loyal henchman for the next ten minutes.

"Xueqi!" Tang Zheng shouted as Gu Xiaohua acted. She flicked her fingers continuously, launching the Phoenix that hit Ai Yixin with purifying flames.

Ai Renqi’s body burst into flames, the faint black mist around her face burned away.

Cinderella executed a windmill flip, beautifully dodging the attacks. Mid-air, her evening gown spread out like a blooming lily. Her legs, wrapped in white suspender stockings, swiftly kicked out dozens ofApparel misty wind blades swarming the ground, smashing the floor. Her flintlock fired a burst of flames, repelling the advancing Pang Meiqin.

Cinderella’s battle aptitude was extremely high after turning rogue. She opened her lips and exhaled heart-shaped fog, which quickly elongated into an arrow, shooting towards Dantai.

Dantai dodged, but the fog arrow seemed to have eyes of its own. It turned sharply, following him and, with a sudden burst of speed, penetrated his Light Defense Shield, striking his cheek.

Special Agent turned his head, yet still got hit. A large heart-shaped mark burst out, smacking onto his face.

Cinderella’s skill Charm meant her kiss could forcibly enhance her attractiveness to the opposite sex and turn them into puppets temporarily.

Dantai, distracted, his mind in chaos, could only think of protecting Cinderella. He involuntarily launched a mental impact at his allies and, with heightened focus, shot out White Ghosts from his eyes.

Team Warhammer immediately suffered; except for Mu Nianqi and Tang Zheng, everyone felt unbearable headaches, their offensive faltering.

Cinderella opened fire at Tang Zheng to stop his pursuit and charged at Li Xinlan. After turning rogue, her only thought was revenge. Li Xinlan was the first to attack her and had significantly affected her with the ice effect, so naturally, she would not allow such foes to exist.

Li Xinlan’s sweat glands stood on end as she hastily retreated, condensing an Ice Shield in front of her.

Cinderella’s rapier stormed like a torrential downpour, leaving countless afterimages as it shattered the Ice Shield. As the matron activated her Defense Shield, it tore apart like fragile paper.

The Eagle of Oz screamed sharply, crashing into the Rose Crystal Shield. Mu Nianqi summoned a clone through Mirror Charm, and alongside Tang Zheng’s clone and the war general, they positioned themselves next to Cinderella to launch a fierce assault, but still, they couldn’t stop her.

Cinderella was stubborn, locking onto her target, relentlessly pursuing until death, relying on her shield to endure the onslaught and fiercely attack Li Xinlan.

Li Xinlan’s body burst open with dozens of blood blooms, her Protective Clothing shredded, skin and flesh torn apart. Struggling clumsily from side to side, she barely managed to withstand under the imminent threat of death and successfully erupted, freezing the moisture in the air around her and forming a barrage of ice spikes targeting Cinderella.

The temperature within the Lobby plummeted, snowflakes falling!

"Save her!" Although he knew that Li Xinlan was an impostor, she couldn’t die just yet. Tang Zheng entered Hero Mode and streaked towards Cinderella like lightning. However, the Pumpkin Carriage smashed through the ceiling with a loud bang, appearing in the Lobby and immediately exploded into a black halo that swept through every corner.

Any Group Members hit by the warhammer, even Tang Zheng and Mu Nianqi, felt as if a heavy hammer struck their heads, pain binding them, almost causing them to lose balance and fall.

A green halo exploded next, and Lin Weiguo immediately felt his movements become stiff.

The Pumpkin Carriage, Cinderella’s vehicle, could release various group curse effects, affecting all enemies within the area.

Mental Impact and Delays shot out, followed by a heat plague, leaving the crowd shivering cold as if stricken with typhus.

Gu Xueqi reacted swiftly, firing a gigantic Phoenix at the ceiling that exploded at its apex. The purifying flames fell like stars, burning away the Black Mist, dispelling the negative effects.

Everyone felt a warm sensation on their skin, and a red shield enveloped them.

Once again, the Pumpkin Carriage exploded into a black mist halo but became ineffective. After a whistle from Cinderella, it charged forward like a raging war chariot towards Gu Xiaohua.

Cinderella, persistent like a scab maggot, her rapier rapid as pelting rain, didn’t leave Li Xinlan’s face.

"Save me!" Li Xinlan’s voice broke, fear of death spreading throughout her body; her heart nearly spasmed.

Due to the delay from the Pumpkin Carriage’s curse effects, Tang Zheng was too late.

Bang—facing the now irrational Li Xinlan, Cinderella suddenly reached out, shooting her in the knee.

As the matron swayed side-to-side, her rapier struck like a venomous snake aiming straight for her eyeball.

"No!" Li Xinlan’s voice cut off sharply.

With a thrust, her head was pierced through, and Cinderella flicked her wrist, flinging a shattered eyeball towards Tang Zheng.

"Gravity Suppression!" Tang Zheng, furious and unleashing full firepower, struck the Rose Crystal Shield with Xue Dai Maru, shaking it fiercely.

With the impact from the Eagle of Oz and the war general’s warhammer addition to Tang Zheng’s clone and Mu Nianqi’s attacks, the shield finally shattered.

Cinderella smirked contemptuously, stepping on the ground behind her, escaping the encirclement.

Tang Zheng, pulling at his Shadow Cloak, transformed suddenly into a bundle of black mist, disappearing into thin air, only to reappear behind Cinderella, grabbing her neck and, in a battle-ax dunk move, smashed her to the ground.

A radius of two meters of a big pit appeared, stone splatter amidst, Tang Zheng plunged Xue Dai Maru towards Cinderella’s heart. Not far from him, Li Xinlan knelt to the ground, falling down dead.

Seeing their companion die, the clones hesitated, all instinctively holding back their power. There was no time limit this time, letting Tang Zheng and Mu Nianqi go all out.

As Cinderella’s heart was pierced, blood spurted towards Tang Zheng’s cheek.

Tang Zheng didn’t dodge, preparing to finish her off in one breath, but unknown to him, a heart-shaped charm hid within the blood, striking his face.

The Charm activated, Tang Zheng’s body moved uncontrollably, swinging his sword towards nearby Lin Weiguo.

Old Soldier entered Burst Mode, Giant Guard activated, and after merging into his body, it didn’t strike Cinderella but was instead cut by Tang Zheng, blocking the blow.

"Xueqi!" Old Soldier panicked, Tang Zheng’s strike was so strong it could annihilate their entire group.

Fortunately, Gu Xueqi’s Purifying Phoenix arrived in time, striking Tang Zheng’s body.

"Sorry!" Tang Zheng grimaced. Cinderella’s attack prowess wasn’t particularly strong, just at the level of a 2nd tier hero, but the various negative effects were annoying especially combined with that continuously playing halo Pumpkin Carriage, it was nearly invincible.

If it weren’t for Gu Xueqi continually dispelling them, they all would have earlier died. However, the beauty could barely hold on any longer, the consumption too immense, her body covered in sweat as if she’d just been dragged out of a river.

"What are you dazing for, attack!" Tang Zheng yelled, but some Group Members were noticeably slower. (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to vote at Qidian (qidian.com), your support is my greatest motivation.)
