Free Web NovelChapter 2773: Chapter 926: Which Idiot Can’t Sink a Ship? Only Solo Pulling Counts as True Skill
Although the sun ship sent for aid by the Sanghai people unexpectedly crashed, the good news is that the God Slayers successfully destroyed the shrine linking the faith of the Wolf People to the Master of Hunting.
Although the God Slayers succeeded in destroying the Hunting Shrine, the bad news is that the Master of Hunting managed to awaken ahead of time.
Even though the Master of Hunting awakening before he could be critically injured and removed is terrible news, the material world is left wondering what it did to deserve two deities coming and going within a single day. However, even with things deteriorating to this point, there is still a silver lining.
For instance, because the Master of Hunting awoke prematurely, his power is incomplete. Moreover, with the shrine being dismantled by Cool Venerable Master and the new Pirate King, when he awakened, he could no longer easily absorb the faith of the Wolf People to further strengthen himself. He even forfeited part of his power, failing to give himself an entry protection phase, which resulted in Freak breaking his defenses with a single strike.
This could be considered the only piece of good news amidst all the bad ones.
That glaring six-digit damage represented the highest DPS the Great Shark could deliver after struggling. Indeed, he deserves his status as the double-flower red rod among those foreign believers of Laowa, even if it was just that once; it was enough.
Divine spirits are terrifying!
Evil Gods that follow the path of destruction are even scarier, but if this Evil God shows a health bar that can be breached... hiss, suddenly it doesn’t seem so frightening, huh, Hunting Bro, your dignity is in shambles!
In short, after the Great Shark led the charge with the first strike, players surged with vigor, bombarding the Master of Hunting’s... toes with a chaotic mix of powers and weapons.
No choice, this guy appeared in a giant deity form, with a height of several hundred meters. Except for vampires with wings, everyone else could only reach that spot no matter how high they jumped.
An explosive wave took away at least one percent of the Master of Hunting’s health, but as players were boasting about their strength, the Master of Hunting, "dazed" by the boldness of the Undying Spirits, snapped back. With a single breath, he recovered the lost health.
The players’ laughter got stuck in their throats and someone immediately broke down.
"WTF! A super-world BOSS with a healing mechanic? How the hell do we beat this... Are the developers brain-dead?!"
Doggy Paddle Bro from the Soldier Strike Group shouted.
Perhaps his disrespect for the developers invoked some cosmic retribution, for in the next instant, the Master of Hunting swung down with a colossal skull flail the size of a mountain, crashing it down.
With a booming sound.
A quarter of Moss Valley was flattened.
The number of God Slayers instantly plummeted from over four hundred to just over three hundred; a quarter of their comrades were taken out in that wave, and those guys were still in shock, their tiny eyes wide with disbelief when they took off their helmets and opened their eyes in the real world.
That damage...
Damn, something’s not right about this!
One-third of the thirty-odd live streams of the God Slayer battles from various angles broadcasted by the Transia Tavern went black after that swing, stunning the Appetite Relief Party and prospective players with the sheer destructiveness.
Is this really an enemy current players can handle?
Or was it that the God Slayers’ mission ended once the Master of Hunting was born, and it’s now time for the NPCs to show off in a cutscene?
But that can’t be right!
According to Brother Meow’s live stream, things aren’t going well for the NPCs either.
The Silver Dwarf Lord Ovg, nicknamed "Santa Lord," shielded the remaining players and NPCs with Gaia’s Whisper, which directly caused him to spit blood from seven orifices and collapse, too fast even for Granny Bach beside him to catch him.
"Damn, did they fail the mission, allowing the Master of Hunting to be born, leading the story to a destruction ending?"
This suspicion quickly appeared in the bullet chat and was met with agreement from many, as the God Slayers’ mission was clearly to prevent the Master of Hunting from being born. The fact that the Evil God has entered the material world indicates mission failure, doesn’t it?
Upon hearing this, the Great Shark, who was the first to fall, was infuriated and frantically posted in the chat only to be muted for violating community rules.
The Great Shark refuses to believe the God Slayers’ mission failed!
He thought this might just be a transition phase; the reason so many died is simply because it’s the first time everyone is fighting this BOSS, and surely it’s just a mechanism to dodge...
Yeah!
It must be that.
However, what the Great Shark doesn’t know is that the real situation is far more dangerous than it appears in the live stream.
Because the birth of the Master of Hunting into the material world signifies far more than the mere appearance of an Evil God. As the source of the Wolf People’s faith, once the Master of Hunting manifested physically, savagery and corruption began to descend as a poison spreading along the web of faith.
The Bloodscar Wolf People still in Moss Valley were the first to be affected; in the eyes of the Wise Wolf Faction, those Fallen transformed into "True Fallen," as forces from the subspace poured down the faith channel into their bodies, starting to warp and befoul them, endowing them with the "essence of destruction."
They were like beings rolled in a vat of black dye, their forms swelling as if blessed, eyes turning crimson and claws growing, completely breaking free from the genetic blueprint of the Wolf People and transforming towards a different species.
