Chapter 151 Goodbye, Matthew!
Eira stepped back, eyes wide. She questioned, "Why would the Snow Goddess bless this Night Walker?"
Eira, a devout follower of the Snow Goddess, felt her faith waver because of Alan.
Alan didn't care. To him, Snow City's defenses were a joke.
Having fought in national wars in his past life, he knew exactly where Snow City's weak points were.
So, he went all out, targeting those weak spots.
"Fall back! Save as many of our forces as you can and wait for General Andrew's support," Eira ordered, her eyes locked on Alan, who looked like a war god, her gaze filled with murderous intent.
"Was I wrong to trust in my faith?" she doubted. Eira's expression turned manic, a faint black aura flickering in her eyes.
If a high priest were here, they'd see Eira was starting to fall into darkness.
Alan couldn't have known that his ice immunity would shatter Eira's faith, pushing her towards the darkness.
But Alan didn't dwell on it. After breaking into Snow City, he quickly took out the remaining guards, securing the city.
Next up was Red Peak City.
Under the relentless assault from Alan and the black-robed leader, Red Peak City didn't stand a chance.
In less than half an hour, Red Peak City fell.
The plan to conquer three cities and one capital was off to a good start.
Next, they had to deal with Andrew and his forces.
Alan and the black-robed leader returned to Lindataria.
By then, Lindataria had already fallen.
The black-robed leader had anticipated this and made preparations.
Most of the Night Walkers had retreated and were gradually taking over Snow City and Red Peak City.
Meanwhile in Lindataria...
"Damn it, a bunch of useless fools!" Andrew roared, smashing the table in front of him.
He thought Snow City could hold out, but it fell so quickly.
Even Red Peak City was breached.
"General Andrew, it was that black-robed archer. His assault was too fierce," a subordinate reported.
Andrew's face darkened. He muttered, "Zachary, my dear brother, you really intend to rebel!"
Andrew was sure the black-robed archer was the Ice King.
But now that the archer had reappeared, he blamed Zachary's incompetence.
Andrew thought, 'Fine. I was just wondering how to bring you down. This time, you let the Ice King escape. Let's see what you have to say.'
Before Andrew could celebrate, news came in.
The subordinate reported, "General Andrew, that black-robed archer has brought people and started attacking Lindataria."
Andrew squinted. If he lost Lindataria again, he wouldn't be able to explain it when he returned.
After a brief hesitation, he sent a message to King Rex.
Andrew: [Your Majesty, initiate the national war, or we won't be able to hold it.]
But the national war he expected didn't start.
King Rex replied: [I've sent a master to help you deal with the Night Walkers.]
Andrew's eyes lit up with anticipation. He had a good idea who King Rex had sent.
Alan was attacking Lindataria, and Andrew, not to be outdone, led his men out to fight.
Seeing Andrew's position, Alan squinted.
Andrew didn't seem to be within Alan's attack range.
But thanks to his increased basic attack range, Alan could actually hit him.
After a moment's hesitation, Alan decided not to attack.
He knew that his extended range was a hidden ace, a trump card.
He wanted to save it for a critical moment, like taking down King Rex.
Just as Alan was thinking this, he sensed danger and squinted his eyes.
[You have been cursed. Attack speed reduced by 5%, movement speed reduced by 5%, damage reduced by 5%.]
Alan's eyes narrowed. He had a purification amulet that reduced negative effects by ninety percent.
So, this reduction should only be fifty percent!
Alan wondered, "How is that possible?"
Alan was shocked. Even with a second or third job change, this shouldn't be happening.
Curse-type skills were rare and powerful, but this one was over the top.
Alan looked up and saw a player in a black robe.
Great, it was a player!
If it had been someone like Andrew, who had undergone a third job change, he might have accepted it.
But a player? This was too much.
Alan couldn't recall any player in his previous life at this stage being this powerful.
'Could it be because of me, it caused a chain reaction? But what kind of chain reaction could create such a powerful skill?' Alan wondered.
A fifty percent reduction in attack speed, movement speed, and damage shouldn't appear at this stage.
Alan raised his hand to attack, but the player seemed to anticipate it and began to phase out.
The arrow passed through his body without causing any damage.
Alan remarked, "Invincible phasing?"
Alan was shocked again.
Whether it was the curse or the invincible phasing, Alan knew about them.
He even knew who had these skills in his previous life.
But the timing was off.
The game had only been out for less than twenty days!
Alan felt conflicted and gave up attacking this person, turning instead to attack the city guards.
However, the player had left a deep impression on Alan, and if possible, Alan really wanted to recruit him into his guild.
Such a powerful person would be a great asset to his guild.
But the player had hidden his name, and Alan didn't know his identity.
However, such a powerful person wouldn't remain unknown for long and would definitely become famous soon.
Suddenly, Alan heard the sound of something cutting through the air.
Almost instinctively, Alan turned and shot an arrow.
Alan's arrow was split in two by a flying knife, which then flew towards Alan's head.
He did a backflip to avoid the knife.
But just as he avoided the knife, Alan sensed danger and immediately dove to the side.
The knife was flying back, and if he hadn't reacted quickly, it would have hit the back of his head.
Alan exclaimed, "It's you!"
Alan was stunned when he saw the person who had just attacked him.
"Ice King, I told you we would meet again, and I will defeat you," Matthew said.
Alan looked at his attributes.
[Matthew (Platinum): ???]
[Health: ???]
[Attack: ???]
[Skills: ???]
Matthew, Alan had fought him in the novice village, but because Matthew had transformed into a monster, their battle had been inconclusive.
Although Alan had gained a lot from it, he hadn't managed to deal with Matthew.
