Chapter 895: Chapter 433: The Shattered Divine Lamp_2

"???"

Mu You looked utterly bewildered.

It was the first time he had seen someone counter a floating machine gun like that, slashing through a hundred bullets in five seconds. How fast must their hands move?

[Evans perfectly dodged your attack, then, holding his broad sword, he rushed towards you at high speed.]

[You were locked in by a killer instinct, your body became sluggish, Evans appeared beside you in an instant as if he had teleported, swinging his sword down. You couldn’t dodge in time...]

[Just as Evans was about to land the hit, three arrows, carrying the force of the wind, broke through the air from behind. Even Evans had to evade their sharpness, forcing him to cancel his attack and retreat temporarily.]

[You seized the opportunity to escape and, from a blind spot, threw a repulsion grenade at Evans.]

[Yet, Evans, as if he had eyes on the back, flicked his wrist and with a diagonal slash of his sword, flicked the grenade out of the air.]

[The redirected flight path of the repulsion grenade happened to head towards the Shadow Wolf, who was collecting arrows in the distance...]

[The next second, the explosive wave of repulsion erupted. Even though the Shadow Wolf was quick to react, rolling away in advance, it was still hit by the blast force from behind and pushed into the smoke, life or death unknown...]

"Damn..."

Mu You watched in extreme surprise. It was one thing to cut through a series of floating bullets, which was still understandable.

But a repulsion grenade would typically explode upon encountering any obstruction; the enemy, however, managed to keep the grenade from exploding and precisely directed it towards Shadow Wolf, turning it into a weapon for indirect killing... This only indicated that the enemy’s control over their strength had reached an unbelievable level!

Coming back to his senses, Mu You could not help but frown.

This time he had not acted and had not asked Lin Xue for help. On one hand, it was because she was still recovering, and on the other hand, the duration of her Grim Reaper skin was too short; it could only be used as a last resort, which would be somewhat wasteful here.

So Mu You simply didn’t disturb her and instead called for Shadow Wolf to help.

Although Shadow Wolf was a level below Evans, he had vast combat experience.

As for Mu You himself, although he was not personally present, his mechanical armor skin and the game system were quite compatible. Previously, he had fought alone against a Mecha Army in Clockwork City without falling short.

Now, with the two of them against one, Mu You had thought they were on firm ground, but instead, they were outclassed.

Clearly, Evans’s combat experience was equally extensive, and throughout the fight, he didn’t even use any magic, relying solely on one man with a sword, his mortal flesh and blood, yet still managed to gain the upper hand against two.

Mu You then realized, warriors like Evans, who had been forged through years of battle, truly represented the pinnacle of human combat power, unlike those Wizard Association elders who held Legendary levels but possessed scant real combat experience.

Fortunately for them, it wouldn’t be easy for Evans to subdue the two of them quickly.

[You activated the Sand Spider Nest, numerous Sand Spiders swarmed from your body, exploring deep into the cave...]

[You switched to the Combat Circuit, engaging in close-quarters combat with Evans...]

Next, Mu You, coordinating with Shadow Wolf, tangled with Evans near the cave entrance, buying time for the Sand Spiders to search for the Divine Lamp.

Fortunately, the Divine Lamp wasn’t specially hidden by the Scorpions; it was boldly placed on the most conspicuous stone platform deep inside the cave.

The Sand Spiders had just entered the interior of the nest when they immediately transmitted back the location of the Divine Lamp to him.

[Taking cover behind Shadow Wolf, you grabbed the cannon, fired a shot, and the glow of the cannon swallowed Evans...]

[After stowing the cannon barrel, you immediately turned and ran towards the depths of the nest. The mechanical feet under your shoes provided exceptional stability, allowing you to move as if on flat ground, even in the uneven cave...]

[You entered deep into the Scorplion Nest and immediately saw the Golden Lamp on the stone platform in the center of the nest!]

[This was a golden pot-lamp, inlaid with numerous gems on its surface, which glowed irresistibly charming even in the dim light of the cave—The Miracle God Lamp: One of the artifacts of the Lamp God from legends, granting the bearer a chance to make a wish to the Lamp God!]

"Is it really the Divine Lamp?"

Mu You was surprised; he hadn’t expected to find the Divine Lamp so smoothly. The Bard who he had been wary of also hadn’t shown up to cause trouble...

At this moment, Mu You couldn’t afford to ponder further; the Divine Lamp was within reach, and he had no reason not to take it. As for receiving a lifespan curse upon acquiring the Divine Lamp... what’s a mere thousand years compared to the value of a divine artifact?

[Eyeing the treasure before you, you recklessly dashed towards the stone platform!]

[But a blur moved faster than the eye could follow, reaching the platform before you, snatching the Divine Lamp from the platform, it was none other than Evans!]

[You turned back to see Shadow Wolf kneeling on the ground with blood at the corner of his mouth, severely injured by Evans...]

Mu You’s eyelids twitched; it seemed that Evans had held back until the crucial moment of snatching the lamp, erupting suddenly to severely wound Shadow Wolf and outpace him in seizing the Divine Lamp.

In a rush, Mu You switched to the Vampire skin. At this point, only "Godspeed" could alter the outcome.

[You switched to the Marquis of the Vampire skin, the Daydreaming Curse struck, rendering you drowsy and listless, unable to gather any strength.]
