Chapter 855: Chapter 420 Server No. 2

[You faced the Demon King fearlessly, wielding the Lunar Eclipse Staff and activated "Tengu Devouring the Moon."]

[Accompanied by a distant low hum, in the sky where the moon hung high, the phantom silhouette of a mythical beast suddenly appeared and bit into the full moon with its enormous jaws.]

[Clouds surged in the sky, thunder rolled, and fierce winds howled on the ground, quickly dimming the land that had been lit by moonlight.]

[You looked up to see the full moon being devoured by the Tengu at a visible rate, causing you, a devout follower of the Moon Goddess, to lose all the various moon phase buffs, becoming extremely weak.]

[The Demon King roared, seemingly also feeling oppression from the high-flying mythical beast, and anxiously charged toward you. You choose...]

[You choose to run away!]

[You activated the Wind God Step, greatly increasing your speed, and you turned to flee from the Demon King.]

[You have committed the Sin of Sloth! All your attributes are rapidly declining, but thanks to the Wind God Boots, your speed does not diminish at all.]

[Seeing you avoiding battle, the Demon King becomes even angrier and chases you at full speed.]

[Your speed is slightly less than the Demon King’s, and as he chases you, the distance between you is gradually closing...]

Mu You looked helpless. The Wind God Boots could lock the speed so it wouldn’t decrease, but the locked speed depended on Mu You’s own Wind God level.

Mu You had tried before that if he could upgrade both the Wind God and Wind God Step to 10-Star and then ’gift’ the speed-limiting gear to the Demon King, he could ensure that he’d lead the Demon King in a continuous chase.

Unfortunately, although his process this time was nearly optimal, it wasn’t perfect, which resulted in a slightly lower level of both his Wind God and Divine Arts, allowing the Demon King to catch up to him now.

Fortunately, with the Cursed Doll’s "Chance of Failure," even if he was caught by the Demon King, he still had a chance to dodge the attack.

[The Demon King finally catches up to you! The Demon King raises his hand and launches the Divine Art "Demon King’s Claw"...]

[In excitement, the Cursed Doll attempts to curse the Demon King, current success rate: 11.3%.]

[The curse fails! You are hit by the Demon King’s claw, the terrifying force causes your guts to shatter and your internal organs to shift, instantly severely injuring you! Current health: 55027/83027]

[The health percentage difference between you and the Demon King exceeds 30%, you have committed the Sin of Envy! "Fire of Envy" burns fiercely within you, your health is continuously draining...]

"Rewind!"

This thing could knock off nearly a third of his life with one swipe, which was absolutely ridiculous!

Mu You hurriedly pressed the pocket watch to restart.

The effectiveness of the Cursed Doll, dependent on the attribute difference between both parties, currently had as high as an 11% chance of activating, which wasn’t too difficult to trigger.

What Mu You was truly worried about was, what next? Because the Sin of Sloth was continuously burning his attributes, this percentage would undoubtedly decrease over time.

He had no choice but to keep persevering for now...

[The curse succeeds! The Cursed Doll manifests and climbs on the Demon King’s back, with a terrifying laugh turning into a mischief-maker, wildly causing havoc on the Demon King. With its interference, the Demon King’s attack misses, smashing into the ground next to you.]

[You are unharmed and seize the opportunity to increase the distance!]

"Good, just like that!"

Mu You breathed a sigh of relief, knowing if he could maintain this rhythm, he could end this in ten minutes.

Mu You glanced at the stopwatch sitting on the nearby table. The stopwatch, which was set at the moment of the Lunar Eclipse’s activation, showed a countdown from 600 seconds, with 583 seconds left now.

This means, at the current rate, the Demon King could catch up to him about every fifteen seconds.

However, this number would increase as the Demon King began to steal his carefully prepared slowdown gear.

Mu You kept his eyes fixed on the game’s text.

The countdown quickly reached 540 seconds, and after a minute’s cooldown, the Demon King indeed launched "Greed" again.

Mu You decisively rolled the slowing gear over.

[The Demon King commits the Sin of Greed, forcefully seizing your "Heavy Sturdy Armor."]

[The weight of the armor slows the Demon King’s speed somewhat, but he is still gradually closing in on you...]

...

This time, Mu You calculated that the Demon King now took nearly nineteen seconds to catch up to him, a significant increase, and there were still other slowing gears left to use, making it increasingly difficult for the Demon King to catch him!

[... The Demon King realizing the slowdown, suddenly transforms into a stunning young maiden, throwing you a seductive glance that stirs your heart and weakens your steps. You have committed the Sin of Lust, all attributes decreased...]

The Demon King was playing tricks again, but it didn’t matter. With the Wind God Boots, whether his attributes decreased or not, his speed would not be affected.

The description of the Wind God Boots was "When speed decreases for the first time in battle, lock the current speed." The description did not mention the duration of effect, which should mean it could maintain throughout the entire fight.

[The curse succeeds! The Cursed Doll emerges... with its interference, the Demon King’s attack fails again.]

[You are unharmed and once again manage to increase the distance!]

...

[The Demon King commits the Sin of Greed, forcibly seizing your "Staggering Ram Staff." The off-balance weight of the staff causes the Demon King to struggle with maintaining balance, further reducing his speed...]

...

The following battle proceeded as Mu You had anticipated; he continuously kited the Demon King, circling around the not so large area atop the tower, using the pocket watch to avoid the Demon King’s occasional attacks, and every minute, "gifting" him another negative gear.
