The fisherman druid is in another world

Chapter 782

Black Rob, riding the mountain dwarf Barto, attacks the undead lich Kamuri.

Although he had a clear advantage in both rounds of the competition, he did not become complacent.

After all, while Kamuri's side has suffered losses, it is far from being beyond saving.

Furthermore, Kamuri demonstrated through his actions that he really enjoyed underhanded tactics such as ambushes and sneak attacks. In Black Rob's view, people with this kind of behavior are often good at, or rather, used to, deceiving and bluffing, feigning weakness while hiding their true intentions.

Therefore, it's no surprise that Kamuri is nothing special, and that opening champagne at halftime is a mere formality.

As expected, after suffering heavy casualties and the ineffectiveness of long-range sniping, Kamuri began to increase the intensity of his attacks.

A new danger came from the sky. A dozen figures, shrouded in billowing black smoke, moved very fast but made no sound as they pierced the air, clearly using a unique method of soundproofing.

However, Black Robo has powerful sensory abilities, making a successful sneak attack extremely difficult.

As soon as Barto's fire axe and ice hammer collided, ice and fire intertwined, instantly generating thunder.

The lightning first spread out in a ring-shaped ripple pattern, then shot into the sky, transforming into a giant net of lightning that caught all the falling black smoke.

'Snap!'

The lightning flashes within the lightning net are not randomly generated, but rather directed at the evil entity shrouded in black smoke.

Struck by these crisscrossing bolts of electricity, these evil creatures instantly glowed red and bright like the heating element of an electric stove, and the black smoke around them scattered like torn rags.

Seeing that yet another trump card had been exposed by Black Robo, Kamuri was naturally both angry and wary.

However, he did not lose his composure and promptly erected a special energy shield in front of himself—the Barrier of Souls.

This is a protective skill activated through the Soul Crown, primarily targeting powerful transcendental attacks from the Evocation type.

It saw Barto's ice, fire, and lightning and, fearing a powerful counterattack, used this technique.

Black Rob is certainly capable of launching a counterattack in time after receiving the attack.

But he didn't do that.

On the one hand, he didn't want to push Kamuri too hard; on the other hand, he didn't want to recklessly use Khobato's power. There are many ways to exert pressure, and using a single, truly threatening move to achieve one's goal would seem rather mindless.

Seeing that Black Rob didn't retaliate immediately, Kamuri instinctively let out a cold snort.

Its mindset was conflicted at this moment. It wanted Black Robo to be like a punching bag, only taking hits without fighting back, but it also wanted Black Robo to reveal more of its abilities so that it could quickly complete the profile of the opponent's combat strength.

Therefore, Black Robor's composure is what it least wants to see, and it makes it very uncomfortable.

Within the dark eye sockets of the skull, a faint green light shone brightly, quickly forming a radiant glow over a foot long.

This is an outward manifestation that only occurs when Kamuri unleashes his explosive mental power.

As it exerted its power, countless black threads flew out from the poisonous fire and black smoke that enveloped him, covering the ground and sky, flanking from the left and right, attacking from four directions, like four long-armed hands, pounding towards Black Robo.

Just as they were about to hit each other simultaneously, Black Rob clashed his fire axe and ice hammer again, instantly unleashing a spiral of ice and fire power that, like a fan spinning at high speed, shredded the fine, tough noodles, blocking all the attacks coming from the four directions.

On Kamuri's side, when it saw the spiral of ice and fire appear, it knew that it could not break through the blade-wheel strangulation of ice and fire power by sheer numbers. So it immediately changed its tactics and wove thick, tough black vines like hemp ropes in the four-way attack.

The series of methods that Kamuri used at this moment were obtained from the mother tree of the withered branch monster.

The needles are numerous, delicate and fragile, yet they are also highly potent and insidious. Once one of them breaks through the defenses, it can inject energy toxins. These toxins are incredibly domineering in devouring supernatural power and rapidly multiplying themselves.

The thick silk, like a whip, is strong and powerful, possessing considerable strength. Furthermore, it has the ability to break spells, making it a super-long weapon in Kamuri's possession.

Ordinary enemies will never see Kamuri use this move.

Not only because ordinary enemies cannot force it to use such a change of tactics, but also because using this move is extremely costly.

Kamuri realized that conventional methods were no match for Black Robo, so he decided to try something different and see if he could break through Black Robo's defenses.

After all, it clearly understood that no matter how fast the ice and fire spiral spun, it couldn't sever the energy whip as thick as a bowl. However, Black Robb didn't play by the rules. Faced with this unexpected move, he didn't choose to take it head-on or dodge in the usual way. Instead, he slammed his fire axe and ice hammer into the ground at the same time. With a loud bang, a burst of lightning flashed, and Black Robb had already retreated to the edge of the dome.

The Thunder Leap Technique, simply put, is an energy escape technique. Once activated after being prepared in advance, it allows for rapid displacement using the electromagnetic effect of thunder.

It is not a spatial supernatural skill such as teleportation, and the dimensional anchor has little effect on it. The drawback is that attacks can affect it during displacement, as long as you are fast enough or can calculate its displacement trajectory in advance.

Unfortunately, Kamuri's attack methods were not as fast as lightning, or even faster, while Black Rob's combat skills were first-rate, and his stealth arrangements were very sophisticated. Kamuri didn't even notice, let alone predict his trajectory.

Now, Black Robb retreats again like he's ice skating, seemingly re-enacting his previous ruthless and cunning style of leaving without a word.

This very method, however, manages to completely outmaneuver the rigid and traditional Kamuri. While the energy whip is powerful, its striking range is ultimately limited.

At this moment, it was truly beyond our reach, and we could only return empty-handed.

This is tantamount to being tricked by Black Robo once again, wasting a lot of energy and supernatural power. And it also exposed another trump card.

When the mountain dwarf, Bato, reappeared on his short legs, Kamuri was furious.

Before this, it had never felt that its control skills were not rich or sharp enough. Today it has experienced this firsthand and is helpless against this pestle.

Some might say, "If the enemy moves, you move too! Launch an attack and chase them down. Don't you have any ideas at all?"

The idea is there, but the courage is lacking.

When Kamuri saw Bato, his first thought was that he couldn't let the other get close.

After witnessing Barto's methods, he became even more convinced of this.

You must maintain distance and use long-range magic attacks to kill your opponent. Ideally, you should be at a safe distance where you can reach them but they can't reach you, kiting them to death.

However, its opponents seemed to be wary of this tactic, and right from the start, they destroyed the advantage of this corrupted dome.

Without the advantage of terrain, given the generally fragile nature of magic-based classes, they can easily be taken down by control skills and combos.

Although it was a lich, it was unlikely that the opponent could kill it completely in one go. However, the opponent's methodical fighting style made it very wary.

It figured that if its current body was destroyed, and the opponent started its "base-destroying" mode before it could activate a new body and return to the battlefield, it would be at a huge loss.

Just as Blackrob had predicted, Kamuri was not only considering how to fight its immediate enemy, but also the possibility of being taken advantage of or having its fortunes ruined.

In this region, relying on its strength, it has become a lone wolf, with no allies or reinforcements. There are plenty of people who want it dead or who covet its rich resources, so how could it dare to fight back?
Negotiating with the other side? It's not impossible, but it requires the right timing.

If it can prove that even if it loses, it can still make the opponent bleed three pounds, thus benefiting others and allowing them to reap the final victory.

It believes that the other party should also be able to negotiate.

However, since the start of the conflict, it has suffered repeated setbacks. At this point, it is estimated that it will not be able to reach a humiliating agreement, but will only embolden the other party and make it take advantage of its position.

"Sigh!" Kamuri couldn't help but sigh.

It knew that if it continued like this, it would likely suffer a crushing defeat. If it wanted to quickly reverse the situation, it would have to use its trump card.

Thinking of this, Kamuri made preparations in secret while transmitting his voice to Black Robo: "I guess someone has offered a high price, hoping to obtain the Soul Crown from me?"

Black Rob thought to himself, "Is this a case of fighting and then preparing to negotiate? Or will they fight again if they can't reach an agreement?"

He walked at a leisurely pace, replying, "If I said yes, would you offer it to me with both hands?"

Kamuri ignored Black Rob's comment and instead asked, "Do you know why Ego wanted to seize the Soul Crown after stealing the Scepter of the Dead?"

"I don't know, and I'm not interested. I'm only interested in the reward he offers."

Kamuri said, “I think you should be interested, because once Igor gets the Soul Crown, he will have all three Deathly Relics and become the proxy Grim Reaper. According to the ancient curse, whoever brings the three relics together will become a sacrifice.”
