Chapter 302: Arcane Imitation

“Yes, a traitor! The commander of Midolhaar thinks that there are traitors among us human players, right at Blood Swamp.” Wantless opened the mission log and said, “The purpose of them helping the Guild is to kill the three commanders, who are controlling Blood Swamp and gain control of this map. They’re the core believers of the Dark Shrine. You may not know that the Dark Shrine is like a divided power with multiple command centers. Although Blood Wizard Larek is the commander of the Dark Shrine, he broke away from the control of the main shrine and fought alone. The main shrine then sent the mission to ask the players to kill him and replace him, as well as take over the control of Blood Swamp.”

“Control Blood Swamp!” Lin Jie drew in a sharp breath. He could not help recalling the battle of Midolhaar in his previous life when the army of Guild of Light had been utterly defeated! One of the turning points seemed to be right here! When the Guild of Light and the Dark Shrine had been fighting in a raging fire, a high-ranking player had proposed to move the troops to Blood Swamp and use the muddy topography to defeat the Dark Shrine in one go.

The idea had been accepted and executed. However, when the army had marched into Blood Swamp, the supposedly cleared map had been filled with millions of Undead! What happened next was as expected. The Dark Shrine had attacked the alliance from both inside and outside! Other than Raid Commander Grey that had managed to escape, everyone had been wiped out.

Could it be all the fault of one traitor?

It must be! The traitor had teamed with up with the Dark Shrine and had taken control of Blood Swamp. He had then used it to produce a large amount of Undead and had hidden them. When the war had started, it had become their trump card!

“We need to kill Blood Wizard Larek before the traitor arrives and destroys Blood Swamp,” said Lin Jie. “When it is destroyed, the Undead and Flesh Beast will not spawn anymore, and the traitor cannot control this place.”

Wantless nodded and said, “That’s right. We need to go to Plague Floating City and defeat Blood Wizard Larek. You are just a Warrior. Later you can just sit at the side and leech.”

Lin Jie smiled and nodded.

It was a good thing that someone was willing to carry for free. There was no reason for Lin Jie to turn down the offer! It was an excellent time to observe how he fought right now as he was not that famous yet. Since he had been so well-known in his previous life, Lin Jie might learn something from him.

After telling Lin Jie not to make any rash move, Wantless continued walking straight without saying another word. He would change the Arcane into all sorts of shapes.

“What is this?” asked Lin Jie carefully. Ophadi Wantless was famous for his expertise in Arcane Magic. Although he was just an average player, he could perform all sorts of magic, which was even comparable to a Legendary Mage. He was talented in all elements, and no one knew how he did that. The guess was that he had some Elemental weapons.

Wantless said casually, “Arcane Imitation allows you to imitate the effect of other skills. Nah, just like this.”

He waved his hands, and the colossal icicle appeared again. It fell and shattered into pieces. It made a huge scene, but the damage was very little.

Wantless said proudly, “I’ve increased this skill to level 5, which allows the skills to deal some damage. When it reaches level 10, I will be able to imitate other skills, and the damage will be much higher than now.”

“I see, I see…” Lin Jie was shocked. Arcane Imitation was the key behind his success!

Arcane Imitation was an Epic Skill. However, it was the most useless skill among all! The reason was simple: the damage of the imitated skills was meager. The only usage was that when Arcane Mages used Arcane Bullet, they could use Arcane Imitation to release the skill with both hands. That was everything it could do! Other than that, it could only copy the effect of the skill, with only 10% of the damage.

However, it was this useless skill that had allowed Wantless to become the top in Arcane Mage!

‘Hmm, Arcane Imitation might seem useful to him, but it alone is not enough. There must be something else he is hiding.’ Lin Jie knew that no one would be bluntly honest with a stranger.

As the two of them moved forward, a sky castle slowly appeared in front of them. It was like a city in the sky filled with dark light.

Temple of Blood Wizard Larek!

This was a floating city where the Blood Wizard lived. The Undead were different from the human society, the inferior Undead, even Enhanced Elite Bloody Skeletons, did not have self-consciousness. Once the Blood Wizard was dead, the basic units in Blood Swamp would lose all combat power.

Below the temple, there were thousands of Bloody Skeletons!

They must kill those Bloody Skeletons before they could make it to the temple!

Lin Jie took three steps back and smiled. “Pro, how long can I leech?”

Wantless looked at Lin Jie and said calmly, “At least two levels.”

“Arcane Flood!”

Wantless made a move. The nearest Bloody Skeleton was only 10 yards away. With the Arcane Flood, three nearby skeletons were pushed back dozens of steps.

“Arcane Chains!”

A light chain hit one of the Bloody Skeletons and locked onto its neck, forcing it out from their formation! Wantless cast another Arcane Bluff, which zeroed his aggro. With this chain of skills, he managed to fish out a Bloody Skeleton!

A Level 45 Elite Bloody Skeleton had very tough Stats. One of them was strong enough to wipe out a five-man team! Also, the aggro was shared among the Undead Skeletons. It was easy to attract many of them in one go.

The way Wantless used his skills was very clever!

He then used a series of Arcane Bullets and hit the Bloody Skeleton’s chest.

-152!-145!

Arcane Bullet was the most basic skill of Arcane Mages. Depending on the Spirit attributes, 2-7 bullets could be fired every second. Wantless had a decent stat in Spirit, and the damage was high enough to that of a Fire Mage.

Bloody Skeleton received 1,500 damage, but it was still closing on Wantless.

“Arcane Imitation, Ice Ring!”

The skeleton was frozen and Wantless used Flash before resuming his attack. In the next 16 minutes, he used his skill fluently and controlled the skeleton with all sorts of Arcane Imitation. He managed to kite it without receiving a single point of damage!

“Die!”

The last Arcane Bullet hit the skeleton, and it collapsed to the ground.

Lin Jie. “…”

The entire thing was awesome indeed; skills were used beautifully, dodging time was perfect, the Arcane Imitation was cool too… However, despite the impressive performance, it was very ineffective!

Wantless’ voice was shaking. “The enhanced elite is a little harder to kill. If it was just a normal monster, I could finish it with one Arcane Bullet.”

Lin Jie coughed and said, “We need to clear the monsters fast and get up to the temple. It would be troublesome for both of us if they catch up.”

“That’s true. Here, take.” Wantless took out a set of Level 25 Gold equipment. “You go tank, and I’ll heal you. We do it fast and go up.”

Lin Jie took a look. It was a Snowman Set dropped from Morakic Frost Coniferous Forest. It had high defense, and it was definitely not cheap.

Seeing that Wantless was so generous, Lin Jie decided not to hide his strength. “It’s okay, we’ll clear them together! I’ll tank, and you just deal the damage you want.”

Wantless was shocked. “You can tank them…? My skills are AOE.”

“It’s okay.”

After saying that, the Bone Membrane Armor appeared and made the Kiara Beast King Armor looked very bloody. Enchanted Scaly Armor appeared on Lin Jie’s face and limbs too.

Hunter’s Forward Charge!

Lin Jie rushed into the crowd of monsters and shot out a gust of enraged Blade Aura!

-583!-545!-1,028!

“WTF, he is so good at pretending…” Wantless was not a stupid person. He knew that Lin Jie was pretending to be a noob at first. But since he was willing to fight now, it meant that he did not have evil intentions.

He was not happy that he could no longer show off…

“Spirit! Arcane Imitation! Dark Poison!” Wantless used a skill that boosted his Spirit by 100 temporarily.

[Dark Poison] was a hidden skill of “Poison Caster” in the Dark Shrine. It covered a vast area with poisonous fog and dealt 110% pure magical damage every second! The effect against Dark-type monsters would be doubled!

Wantless was being competitive now and cast Dark Poison to multiple areas. The sky was covered in the mist, and multiple 1,000+ damage values appeared.

“Nice!” shouted Lin Jie and used Whirlwind!

Flame Boost! Whirlwind!

With the two skills combo, it was like a whirlwind of flame! The skeletons’ health points dropped quickly at a rate faster than the fog!

Wantless stared at him and took out a bag of powder, which he had looted from a Dark Shrine Poison Spellcaster. Dark Powder could boost his fog by 50%!

“Hmph, let’s see who can deal more damage now!” Wantless was relieved to see the amount of damage he was causing.

Lin Jie took on the challenge and used a Berserker Potion. His health points were drawn into the Enchanted Scaly Armor, decreasing them significantly, while his Blood Vigor became more violent… Finally, his health points were below 5%!

“Ahhhhhhh! Death Rage!”

Lin Jie’s body was enlarged, and the power of his Broken Blade became much stronger. With a Blade Aura, dozens of skeletons flew away!

-1726!-3018!-1926!
