Chapter 441: Chapter 441: Perfect Control
The summoning of demons by a Magician can only summon a demon of one’s own rank; otherwise, demons are too prone to betrayal.
This type of contract is a true slave contract where the Magician exploits and controls the Demon. It’s different from a Hunter’s contract; although it’s also beneficial for Hunters, if the master exploits his pet excessively, the pet may flee. And with the permission of the Beast Gods, such Hunters may be punished.
It’s different for the Magicians – overpowering the Demon completely relies on his own spiritual power and the power of his rank. Summoning powerful demons is not impossible, but if he fails to suppress it, the first victim of the Demon’s wrath will be the Contractor.
The Ogre, being a low-level leader, summons a leader-level Demon Imps Chieftain. If it’s one leader, the Raptor and Griffin can handle it, but with the inclusion of another leader, not just Li Yao, even the Beast Gods would undoubtedly end up defeated, there’s no chance of winning.
Therefore, Li Yao wouldn’t allow the Ogre General to summon the Imps Chieftain.
Just when the Ogre was at a critical moment in the summoning spell, the Demon Imps Chieftain already had one foot out of the summoning array – and a lightning ball accelerating around the Raptor violently hit the Ogre’s head.
The Griffin’s attack spells are lightning balls, or perhaps, Lightning Arrows, and the effect of acceleration spell is to let a lightning ball circle around the targeted creature, providing an acceleration effect.
If this effect were triggered, it would result in a 0.5-second paralysis effect on the enemy. For a leader, this effect would be lessened, only causing slight sluggishness.
But it is this slight sluggishness that Li Yao wants. The moment the Ogre’s body stiffens, Li Yao chooses to let the Raptor directly hit the Ogre’s lower back.
At this moment, the Ogre can’t counteract the force, his body faltered. But just when he was about to fall, the Griffin’s spell was released.
Suddenly, the unstable body of the Ogre was swept up by a black whirlwind, leaving the ground by nearly two yards.
The direct result is that the Ogre’s summoning ritual was thoroughly interrupted, but by this time the Imps Chieftain’s body was already halfway out of the summoning gate.
With the disappearance of Mana supply, a hint of fear flashed in the Imps Chieftain’s eyes; it had already sensed its impending complete annihilation.
Many demons are willing to sign a contract with the Magician, the main reason being that while they are enslaved, they can help the Magician in battle and occupy his summoning position. After dying in combat, they can be resurrected, just like a Hunter’s pet.
But if a demon falls and then the Magician falls too, then there is naturally no possibility of resurrection. Its spirit will enter the Dark Realm, a place that even demons that dominate in the twisted Abyss couldn’t reach.
The situation now is precisely that; the Magician’s spell being interrupted, the Imp wants to run out of the array like it was crazy, but without the supply of magic power, the summoning gate that connects the twisted Abyss, closed in an instant.
Splat…
Half of the body of the Imps Chieftain fell to the ground, and green blood splashes all over. The spatial power is no second-order power can resist. It left half of its body here, the other half was left in the Void Abyss.
“Impressive.”
“Marvelous.”
Not to mention the guards responsible for protecting the bosses, even those bosses couldn’t help expressing their admiration.
Even the bosses of the Light Faction can’t help but marvel, they can’t help but admire because what Li Yao is doing is just too excellent.
His grasp of the timing, the combination of skills and attacks are used to the extreme, facing a boss, many crowd control skills are useless.
The paralysis effect of the Griffin’s lightning, the impact from the Raptor, the Griffin’s Hurricane, none of them separately could interrupt the Ogre’s casting.
What’s more, Li Yao’s purpose was not simply to control the Ogre for a moment. Instead, he used the paralysis to momentarily make the Ogre lose control over its own body. In that very moment, Li Yao let the Raptor impact the Ogre, it was the only time the Raptor could move it.
It was only during that moment when it left the ground and its spirit dissipated and wanted to continue maintaining the summoning spell that the Hurricane could blow the Ogre up.
But all these series of actions had one purpose – to kill the Imp.
All those who watched this trial are the world’s top powerhouses. They also clearly understand that if it’s merely interrupting the Ogre’s summoning spell, it has no meaning at all.
Because if they interrupt now, Ogre can continue to summon after a moment. Although the summoning spell takes a while, it is still acceptable. Even if it summons several times, the two silver heroes can’t do anything to the Ogre.
But the problem is, both of the silver heroes have a cooldown period on their skills, they can’t keep interrupting the Ogre’s summoning.
If they don’t, once the Imp is summoned, the trial will be considered over.
That being so, they must kill the Imps Chieftain. Because the spellcasting time to resurrect the demon is very long and easy to interrupt. In a battle, if a demon dies, it is almost impossible for the Magician to summon it again.
Common methods won’t work; although the Imp is weak, it is still a leader. It surely can’t be killed in a flash by relying on skill damage. So they can only use the spatial power of the summoning gate to kill the Imp.
But the timing must be extremely accurate. A little earlier or a little later won’t kill the Imp. It can be said that this is a matter of life or death.
This is the difficulty of gaining a high evaluation. Because under ordinary circumstances, they would tactically retreat. If they can’t beat the Ogre, the Ogre wouldn’t have a chance to summon the Imp.
“A small second-order recruit could come up with this method, and he’s so calm and astute, with such precise grasp of timing… He is a truly promising talent. A new powerhouse is bound to rise in the Dark Camp in the future,” lamented King Wa.
“I guess he used up all his strength feeding, and he’s probably doomed now,” one of Wa’s guards said.
“On the contrary, you’re being distracted by the fighting in the cave. Look here; his rhythm of attacking the straw man hasn’t changed at all, there’s not a bit of chaos. He’s clearly in his comfort zone, it’s a pity he’s not in our camp,” King Wa said with a regretful expression.
“Haha, you’ve got great vision indeed. If nothing goes wrong, we’ve won this round,” the Chieftain laughed.
King Wa didn’t retort this time. As the Chieftain said, given Li Yao’s performance now, if there’s no surprise, there’s no suspense left in this trial.
Would there be an accident with Li Yao? That’s impossible. He’s handled hundreds of Exploding Sheep with ease; dealing with two is trivial.
Without the help of the Demon Imp, the Ogre has already lost his rhythm. In the end, he became frenzied and started attacking wildly.
After the Ogre went berserk, the Raptor controlled by Li Yao was hit by a skill and lost a great deal of health. Subsequently, Li Yao became more careful. Finally, still, unwilling to accept defeat, the Ogre collapsed…
