Chapter 733: The Art of Whipping and Binding
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
[Earth’s Protection] was a buff meant to increase one’s close combat capabilities. Apart from the increase in the target’s defences, it was common knowledge to everyone that a buff in both strength and damage would greatly increase the final damage output dished out by the target. As for [Super Armour], it was an extremely good defence against control skills.
All in all, the change in the Flora Deity was meant to help eliminate her weakness in close combat, so as to prevent the situation of the one-sided beatdown from happening once more.
Thinking up until this point, everyone was depressed.
For a spell-caster BOSS to get beaten to the point where it received such a huge BUFF to its close-combat capabilities, the Flora Deity was clearly traumatised by having to deal with melee job classes. Wang Yu had committed a great sin this time…
Upon seeing the Flora Deity’s transformation, Wang Yu was secretly shocked as well. He promptly recovered from it and retrieved a pair of swords that had exceptionally long handle guards, with one of the swords being longer than the other.
“Is this a fork?” Ling Longmeng had known Wang Yu for quite some time. However, this was her first time seeing Wang Yu’s “Long and Short Sword”…
Ming Du replied, “I heard that it is a sword!”
“Sword? This can be considered a sword?” Ling Longmeng replied in disbelief.
Most people’s understanding of swords was that swords only revolved around two kinds of style. One was the Eastern-style single-handed sword while the other was the Western-style dual-handed sword. Regardless of how the design of the sword changed, it still revolved around these two styles. The sword that Wang Yu was currently holding onto looked more like a fork instead of a weapon.
Ming Du then replied, “Old Bull is a weapons master. If he says it is, then it is!”
“Tsk!” Ling Longmeng rolled her eyes upon hearing Ming Du’s reply.
“Intruders, taste the wrath of Mother Earth.”
The hand of the Flora Deity instantly transformed into vine whips. Following which, there was a crack in the air as she lashed out at Wang Yu.
Wang Yu leapt backwards slightly, avoiding the Flora Deity’s whip, causing her attack to hit nothing but air. Just as she was about to pull it back to lash out once more, Wang Yu suddenly bent forward and used the short sword in his hand to lift up the Flora Deity’s whip. Shortly after, he twisted the sword around and both handguards of the short sword were used to coil the whip around them, similar to how one would use a fork to coil instant noodles around it.
When Wang Yu had managed to get a hold of the vine, the Flora Deity had already retracted it. Thus, Wang Yu followed the vine and was flung to the side of the Flora Deity.
“You…!!” When the Flora Deity saw what Wang Yu was doing, she was shocked. Just when she was about to say something, Wang Yu thrust the hand that was holding onto the longsword, accurately piercing through the eye of the Flora Deity.
The attack from Wang Yu made use of the strength of the Flora Deity herself. Seeing that the strength of the BOSS was increased by 300%, the BOSS’s damage output would be exceptionally high. And of course, the higher the BOSS’s damage output was, the greater the damage she would receive from this move by Wang Yu.
“Argh!! Shameless!”
Just from the screams of the Flora Deity alone, anyone could tell that this attack from Wang Yu had dealt a heavy blow.
Wang Yu’s brutal actions instantly raised the aggro of the Flora Deity on him to its maximum.
The fuming Flora Deity violently flung Wang Yu, who was still stuck to the vine whip on her right hand. After getting thrown into the air by a BOSS of such immense strength, if it was a normal player, they would have been thrown far away.
However, Wang Yu managed to use a technique to hold onto the vine whip in time. He intersected both the long and short sword with the whip lodged between them, allowing him to stick to the whip and not get thrown into the air.
The Flora Deity was shocked once more. However, she promptly recovered from the shock and raised the whip in her left hand.
If you don’t want to get down, I shall whip you to death in midair.
Seeing that the whip was flying towards him, Wang Yu calmly flipped on the spot, avoiding the oncoming whip. Following which, he activated his ability to fly and started to accelerate at an alarming pace. Soon, he was back in front of the Flora Deity once again.
Before the Flora Deity had the chance to pull back her whip, Wang Yu leapt into the air and over the left shoulder of the Flora Deity, landing behind her. Following which, Wang Yu started flying around in the Flora Deity in circles.
The vine whip on the right hand of the Flora Deity appeared as if it was a silk thread while Wang Yu himself appeared to be the needle attached to the tip of the thread, guiding the thread around, over and under the body of the Flora Deity.
After a few rounds, the vine whip on the right hand of the Flora Deity was wrapped around her own body.
The Flora Deity started to panic and attempted to hit Wang Yu with the whip on her left hand. Wang Yu swiftly used the short sword in his hand to pierce towards the waist of the Flora Deity, firmly securing the vine whip around the Flora Deity’s body. Following which, he used his other long sword to coil around the vine whip on the left hand of the Flora Deity as well.
After managing to trap the vine whip on the left hand of the Flora Deity, Wang Yu repeated the same motion and “guided” the vine whip all around the Flora Deity’s body, before securing it tightly once more.
Soon after, the Flora Deity was securely trapped by Wang Yu with her own vines.
The perfect body figure of the Flora Deity was completely revealed under Wang Yu’s binding.
“Holy crap! Old Bull truly lives up to his name, he has done it so professionally…” Upon seeing the scene in front of them, the beasts from Quan Zhen Sect were all restless.
Surprisingly, Long Longmeng was equally excited as well and said, “Heh, if only there was a candle.”
“What do you mean?” Yang Nup asked, confused.
Ling Longmeng cheekily laughed and said, “Hehehe, I guess you have never played this before. Let big sister teach you…”
“…” After seeing Ling Longmeng’s explanation to Yang Nuo regarding the method of binding in the guild chat, the other players from Quan Zhen Sect all wiped off the sweat on their foreheads and thought, “Is this demon actually a lady?”
…
As the saying goes, “Use softness to overcome strength” The Flora Deity thought that after her strength and attack power had been increased, as well as receiving the [Super Armour] status, she would be able to completely overcome Wang Yu. Who would have thought that Wang Yu’s talent in fighting was way beyond anyone’s expectations?
If the rope was Wang Yu’s, given the Flora Deity’s status as a BOSS as well as under the BUFF to her strength, she would definitely be able to break free from it easily.
However, the rope that Wang Yu used to tie up the Flora Deity was actually her own hands… Thus, it was nearly impossible for her to use any strength at all to help her get out of her predicament.
Furthermore, the rope was tied in a system dead knot so there was basically no way for her to break free.
“Despicable intruders, I will kill all of you!” the Flora Deity pitifully cried out.
At the end of the day, Wang Yu’s heart was not made of stone and he could not bear to hear a woman cry. Thus, he promptly took out a cloth and stuffed it into the mouth of the Flora Deity, after which he gave an instruction to the rest.
“Beat her up!”
Even though there was no candle, being able to bully an Ancient-class BOSS that could not retaliate at all was a once in a lifetime experience.
Under the bombardment of attacks by Quan Zhen Sect’s players, the Flora Deity continued to struggle. However, the more she struggled, the tighter the binding got and the more she suffered.
After a brutal beating, the HP bar of the Flora Deity finally dropped below 30%.
The layer of golden coloured [Earth’s Protection] shattered and fell on the ground.
Following which, the green coloured layer of protection surrounding the body of the Flora Deity shone once more.
“Hurry up and dodge!”
Under Fearless’ command, everyone retreated back to their original position. Under the layer of protection, the vine whips that were used to bind the Flora Deity were promptly transformed back into her own hands. And for the second time, the Flora Deity stood up once again.
“Despicable intruders, none of you are to be spared. Mother Earth, please bless me with the strength of a thousand flowers.”
