Chapter 933, Skill Combinations

The opponent’s Debuffer nodded, immediately releasing Skills at Lu Fan and the others once more.

 

Unfortunately, his Profession seemed to be perfectly countered by Lu Fan, a Totem Master.

 

Whenever he released a Skill, its Effects would be directly Cleansed by Lu Fan’s Purification Totem.

 

This left the Debuffer extremely frustrated. With no other choice, he could only say. “No good, the opponent’s Skill has a sustained Debuff Removal. My Skills can’t take effect. You need to pull out their Totems before I can release my Skills to Weaken them.”

 

“How troublesome!” The Heavy Swordsman grumbled, feeling somewhat vexed.

 

However, having fought together as a team of four, what battles hadn’t they experienced?

 

The trouble before them could not diminish their fighting spirit in the slightest. They were still seeking ways to claim victory in this sparring match.

 

The Heavy Swordsman attacked again, actively rushing forward to draw fire.

 

The petite woman meanwhile continuously applied Buffs to him and healed his wounds, allowing him to endure longer at the frontline.

 

As the Close Combat Profession in the team, Tao Xiaoman showed no fear at this moment either, charging forward with sword raised to engage in fierce battle with the opponent.

 

However, it was clearly visible that the Imperial Ice Sword God Profession was evidently inferior to the opponent in terms of close combat.

 

The opponent wielded a greatsword. Not only could he Tank, but his own Attack was also quite terrifying. Each time he swung his sword, Tao Xiaoman had to use Skills to summon water barriers to block his attacks.

 

Even when timing her Skills perfectly, the opponent could still break through each time, forcing Tao Xiaoman to retreat repeatedly, not daring to directly withstand the opponent’s offensive.

 

Lu Fan naturally could not let Tao Xiaoman suffer such a clear disadvantage.

 

Originally, Tao Xiaoman’s Profession Characteristics focused on functionality. Leaving her to fight one-on-one against an opponent whose Profession was specialised on the frontline was not fair to begin with.

 

Lu Fan tapped his staff, and Totems emerged from the ground one by one, surrounding the Heavy Swordsman and Tao Xiaoman.

 

Each of these Totems each contained the power of lightning. One look was enough to know they were not for support.

 

Tao Xiaoman was momentarily puzzled about what these Totems were for.

 

After all, since Lu Fan had obtained his new Profession, he had not really told her what Skills he possessed.

 

Lu Fan had only mentioned that he had certain capabilities for Support and Damage Output, and did not particularly need Tao Xiaoman to coordinate with him or anything.

 

Now, with three Totems appearing, Tao Xiaoman did not know whether to leave the Totems’ encirclement or withstand the opponent’s pressure.

 

At this moment, a voice appeared in her mind. It was from Lu Fan.

 

“These are Lightning Totems. They can release lightning to attack enemies. Just release your Crowd Control Skill. Spread water beneath their feet, then I’ll have the Lightning Totems attack.”

 

This was an Ancient God’s ability, allowing them to directly connect with the opponent’s mind through spiritual threads, thereby conducting communication on a spiritual level.

 

Besides Lu Fan and Tao Xiaoman, no one else could hear the conversation between them.

 

Tao Xiaoman found it incredibly miraculous, but thinking this was done by Lu Fan, well, it was to be expected.

 

Following Lu Fan’s words, she did not retreat but continued attacking, releasing Skills and summoning surging water to strike at the opponent.

 

This water made the opposing Heavy Swordsman extremely uncomfortable, unable to advance and clash with Tao Xiaoman.

 

At the same time, the Backliners were also affected, momentarily unable to continue releasing Skills and attacking.

 

However, this Skill ultimately had limited power and Crowd Control capability, so the opposing four did not pay much attention to it.

 

In the surging water, the opponents also could not attack, so they thought. [Keep on casting this Crowd Control Skill if you want. Once your Mana  runs out, let’s see what you can do!]

 

How could these people know that Tao Xiaoman was only releasing this Skill as a setup?

 

In the blink of an eye, the water flow had completely soaked all of them.

 

Seeing this, Lu Fan loudly shouted, “Tao Zi, fall back!”

 

“Alright!” Tao Xiaoman pushed off with her foot, retreating from the frontline to join Lu Fan and the others.

 

Lu Fan’s eyes narrowed slightly as he said, “Lightning Totems, attack!”

 

In an instant, the Lightning Totems crackled. Bolts of lightning transformed into serpentine forms, striking towards the Heavy Swordsman.

 

The Heavy Swordsman was greatly alarmed seeing this, though he was not completely unprepared.

 

After all, three Totems had been obviously summoned. They definitely were not just mere decorations.

 

The Totems attacking now was within his expectations.

 

He raised his greatsword horizontally, blocking it before him.

 

Although his Resistance to Magic Attack was not high, as a Frontliner, his body was tough enough that he would not be critically wounded by the opponent, who had a Support Specialised Profession.

 

As the lightning serpents fell upon him, he immediately grunted, pain and numbness spreading through various parts of his body.

 

But it was bearable. He could withstand it!

 

The Heavy Swordsman worried that the opposing Sword Tamer and Light Element Mage would also attack him, so he turned and commanded, “Don’t just stand there, give me…”

 

Before the word ‘Buff’ could leave his mouth, he froze.

 

Because he saw that his backline was now suffering a calamity.

 

The water flow had bathed all four of them, so the Lightning Totems’ lightning did not just bombard him, it also conducted through the water, causing his three Backliners to suffer greatly as well. They were now trembling all over, having been Paralysed.

 

The Lightning Totems’ Damage was not particularly high, but the Paralysis Effect was truly annoying.

 

More importantly, all four of them were Crowd Controlled, and the opponent’s Damage Output was no joke!

 

Whether it was the Sword Tamer or the Light Element Mage’s Damage Output, neither could be underestimated.

 

After one round of attacks, if they landed on the backline, all three Backliners would be instantly killed!

 

At this moment, Qin Qiu and Jian Ying had already prepared their Skills, ready to wipe out the backline.

 

Seeing this, the Heavy Swordsman became extremely anxious.

 

He forcibly endured the pain and fiercely stomped the ground.

 

Immediately, a shockwave rippled outward, unexpectedly clearing away all the flowing water and Totems on the battlefield.

 

In an instant, all members of their team were saved.

 

However, this Heavy Swordsman’s condition rapidly deteriorated. He was depleted, where he could barely stand steady.

 

Seeing her leader use even this Skill, the Buffer was greatly alarmed and immediately began frantically applying Buffs to the Heavy Swordsman, helping him quickly recover.

 

The Archer and Debuffer also did not dare be careless at this moment, deploying Skills to try to seize back the initiative.

 

Lu Fan, while re-establishing Purification Totems to remove Debuffs from his side, observed the opposing Heavy Swordsman, confirming that the opponent had lost at least seventy percent of his Combat Power.

 

Clearly, the Skill he used for that rescue just now was at least his Fourth Profession Divine Skill, which could not be used lightly.

 

Since it has been used now, don’t blame us for focusing fire on you.

 

“Attack the frontline. Don’t worry about the backline. Eliminate that Heavy Swordmaster first.”
