Chapter 235 Control Skills That Surpass Super Armor!
The damage numbers left Orlando scratching his head.
But more than that, he was about to keel over.
He wanted to go after Alan.
But he couldn't move. None of his other skills could break through Alan's crazy rain of arrows, leaving him totally hopeless.
He wanted to make a run for it.
But Lysander had already popped up behind him.
"Super Armor."
"Rage."
"Third Silver Eye!"
A crack split open on Orlando's forehead, with crimson blood oozing out and a silver light wrapping around the crack.
Then, a silver eye popped out from the crack.
"Watch out." The voice of the God of the Undead echoed in Alan's mind.
Just as the voice faded, Orlando roared, "You brat, die!"
A silver beam shot towards Alan.
Alan's arrows turned to ash under the silver beam.
Thanks to the God of the Undead's heads-up, Alan had already dodged before the beam got there.
But the beam was too fast, and Alan barely dodged a critical hit, getting nailed in the shoulder.
A massive damage number, 1000100, flashed above Alan's head.
A million damage was no joke.
The worst part was the beam wasn't just a one-time hit; it kept tracking Alan.
Lysander jabbed the Sea God Trident into Orlando's forehead, dealing a hefty 329850 damage.
It was a critical hit!
The damage was huge.
But Orlando didn't seem to care, and the beam kept chasing Alan.
Another hit, 1095800 damage, and Alan's health took a nosedive.
Luckily, with the Bloodthirst Dragon Armor's damage-to-health conversion, Alan's health didn't drop as much.
Lysander said, "Hang in there, he can't keep this up for long."
Alan pushed his speed to the max, wanting to say, 'Me neither.'
The beam was too fast, making it hard for him to outrun it.
While Lysander was talking, Alan got hit again, and his health dropped even more.
The big problem was that Alan couldn't focus on dealing damage because this beam inflicted ongoing damage, it dealt harm more than once per second.
Getting hit over and over, the damage numbers were insane.
Thankfully, the beam fizzled out after three seconds. Otherwise, it would've been a huge problem for Alan.
"Your attack is over. Now it's your turn to die."
Alan's arrows rained down again.
During the three seconds Orlando used the beam, Lysander had taken a big chunk of his health.
Now facing Alan's attack again, he was struggling.
"Silver Eye: Touch of the Void!" Orlando roared. His aura instantly weakened, and his MP dropped like a rock.
"Consuming source health?"
Alan was shocked, a bad feeling creeping up on him.
In Ragnarok, most skills used MP to cast.
A few skills used health to cast.
Besides these two types, there were some special skills.
These were called forbidden spells, and they used different things to cast.
Some permanently reduced attributes, like max health or max attack power.
When Orlando cast this skill, he used his source health, meaning his max health.
His health would permanently go down.
Not only that, his MP took a nosedive too.
This skill was gonna be a nightmare.
Alan's mind raced, but it all happened in a flash.
Behind Alan and Lysander, a giant silver eye appeared.
The silver eye seemed to hide in the void, now opening its gaze.
As the silver eye opened, a tentacle shot out, wrapping around Alan in a heartbeat.
Same thing happened to Lysander.
They were instantly bound.
"Super Armor!" Alan reacted on instinct.
The moment the tentacle touched him, he activated Super Armor.
But then something crazy happened.
His Super Armor, and even the Purification Jade Pendant's cleansing ability, did nothing.
"This is some next-level control!"
Alan got it right away.
He had used Reincarnation of Death to take out the old servant with an Immortal Body because Reincarnation of Death was a higher-level skill.
So even with Immortal Body, Alan could trigger Reincarnation of Death.
His Super Armor and Purification Jade Pendant didn't work because the tentacle's control skill was on a whole other level.
"Today's humiliation, I will remember. If I return, I will take your head!" Orlando ran without looking back, still shouting threats.
After fifteen seconds, when Orlando had run far, the skill finally wore off.
"Blazing Turkey King!"
Alan hopped on the Blazing Turkey King and took off after him.
At the same time, he pulled out the Code of Life and Death and changed the name to Orlando!
After hitting the shore, Alan switched mounts to the Explosive Water Tiger Turtle King.
To speed things up, Alan also used the Sea's True Intent.
Orlando was fast, but with Alan's desperate chase, the gap between them kept shrinking.
"Help me," Orlando shouted towards the ship.
On the ship, the woman getting ready to leave looked shocked.
"Can Lysander really threaten Orlando?"
She couldn't believe it.
After all, they had planned this out beforehand, and now things were going sideways.
"Cover with frontal cannon fire."
The woman didn't turn the cannons but showed up on the deck herself.
"Go!"
One mechanical puppet after another appeared on the deck, flying quickly towards Alan.
Alan frowned. "Dive!"
The Explosive Water Tiger Turtle King immediately dived underwater.
Alan's speed underwater wasn't affected, and even got a boost.
Above the water, the mechanical puppets started blowing up.
The massive shockwaves churned the sea, trying to block Alan's chase.
Alan wasn't easy to shake off either, shooting arrows at Orlando.
The passive skill of increased normal attack range was paying off.
Normally, Alan wouldn't be able to hit Orlando now.
But with the increased range, Orlando was within his attack zone.
The woman on the deck sensed danger and immediately commanded the mechs to self-destruct in front of Orlando.
The shockwaves from the self-destruction could temporarily block Alan's arrows.
But Alan's arrows were too many, not something a single self-destruction could stop.
