Chapter 465 - FIGHTING THE KRAKEN
SEEING all these scenes unfold, Ying Chen gritted his teeth and jumped towards the helm of the ship. If he didn't step up now, wouldn't he look super lame compared to that Noctis?
"Hey, if there's any Mage here, let's all cast AoE spells towards that kraken!" he shouted for everyone to hear. "Unless, of course, you prefer to just stand there and do nothing."
He didn't wait for anyone's reply and took out his staff from his Items Tab. He pointed it towards the kraken and used one of his skills. It's a good thing that the monster was quite big. Because it also meant that any long-distance skills would hit it easily.
Soon, a pool of darkness appeared beneath the kraken. Although the diameter of the spell was not that big, it was enough to rattle the big kraken. But that's not all. Immediately after that, fireballs, tornados, lightnings, tidal waves, appeared consecutively to attack the kraken.
Ying Chen was a bit surprised seeing that. When he turned his head from left to right, he saw players lined up at his sides. All pointing their staffs and wands at the kraken. Ying Chen grinned. Now this was more liked it.
Liang Sen stretched out. It seemed that he needed to also do his share. His leg muscles expanded, making his jump even higher. He went straight to one of the tentacles that was about to hit the ship. The muscles on his right arm bulged and his claws stretched out.
The moment he swiped at the tentacle, he saw a black stream appearing at the opposite side. It was that player Razor. He was holding a dagger and slashed at the same spot where Liang Sen attacked. Because of the force from both sides, the tentacle was easily cut.
Razor didn't look at him and jumped to the next tentacle by jumping off to the falling tentacle he helped to just cut. Liang Sen didn't even notice how he appeared. He just came and went. Now he was off to another target. How could he just stay here and watch? So, he followed over.
On the Luo brothers' side, Luo Jin just finished firing his ice gun on the kraken's tentacle. A portion of it immediately turned to ice. Luo Yan quickly took advantage of that and attacked the frozen portion with his daggers. The cut tentacle fell on the ocean.
Luo Jin looked at the kraken. The monster seemed to be more agitated, making its attack wilder and more unstable. He knew that it was not only because of the joint attack of the combined attack of the dragon and those elemental skills. A part of it was because of him shooting it with his gun.
It's because of his passive unique skill – Chaotic Mind. When he hit a target from a distance, it would fall into confusion for five seconds. It was one of the skills he liked that was unique to his race. It kind of off-set the fact that he looked like the cute childish version of a dwarf.
Luo Yan also looked at the direction of the kraken. The golden dragon was still attacking the kraken while elemental spells were pouring into it. Aside from the Mages, there were also other players attacking the incoming tentacles. He raised one of his brows, seeing that almost everyone was working together.
Then his gaze captured a white figure flying near the golden dragon. It was that Angel. The one who instigated people to close the entrance of the ship during the storm trial. From this distance, it seemed like the other was healing the dragon.
His raised brow went up to another level. He didn't expect that guy to help. He shrugged and just ignored it.
He turned to his brother. "Let's go and cut more tentacles."
"Yeah," Luo Jin said, he also wanted to try shooting that kraken more. So, his passive skill would affect it more.
Up in the air, the Angel flying was indeed healing the golden dragon. His name was Lan Yu and his game account name was Raphael. He chose it that way because he wanted it to line up with the names of the main players in team Celestials. His sole reason for even playing this game was to join that team.
He knew that it wouldn't work unless he received an Angel as a race. And that probability was really low. Since Angel race was under the Rare category. But he didn't care. He's willing to gamble. Even if he failed, he would just buy another VR helmet.
But luckily enough, he got the Angel race at his first try. He almost couldn't contain his excitement and happiness. After all, this was his first step towards the captain of team Celestials – Michael, Li Xu Min.
He thought he would be recruited immediately because teams Celestials only accepted Angels. Besides, because of his modelling work, he already had a lot of fans behind him.
But no, no one from Celestials approached him and invited him to join. It took a while before he accepted the fact that no one would be coming because he was just a newcomer who hadn't proved anything in the game yet. So, he knew that he needed to make a name for himself in the game first.
That's why he had to be noticeable in this Rookie Carnival. Who would have thought that since the beginning, the spotlight hadn't been on him?
He had a feeling that this would be the last trial. If he didn't make a move now, then there would be no chance to show the audience of this preliminary how great of a player he was.
So, Lan Yu flew here and he planned to heal and buff the shit out of this dragon.
Back on the ship, three of the eight tentacles of the kraken had been cut, only five remained. And the players on board worked together to slice the remaining ones.
But, of course, not all helped. Some decided to just stay away from the fight and only care about themselves.
The kraken howled in pain the moment another three of its tentacles were cut off. It didn't help that those elemental spells still kept bombarding it.
Xia Lei took that chance and spewed out golden flames.
