Chapter 222: The Self-Destruction of a Seventh-Rank Powerhouse
Chapter 222: The Self-Destruction of a Seventh-Rank Powerhouse
Medeline was an 83rd-level Legendary Paladin, just one level below the 84th-level Sivan.
During Su Yu's first scenario battle, the "Giant Tree Canyon Encounter," she and Sivan faced off, and she suffered severe injuries that she still hasn't fully recovered from.
Medeline was also present at this major battle.
However, throughout the conflict, she conserved her strength, secretly gathering her power to deliver a devastating blow to Sivan.
Her plan was not just brutal; it was suicidal. She decided to self-destruct, sacrificing her life to stop Sivan.
Just as Sivan was about to break through his bottleneck, Medeline gave her friend Turayon a resolute glance.
Turayon knew what his dear friend was about to do. He turned away, not wanting her to see the sorrow on his face.
"Roar!"
Medeline let out a furious roar.
Her body transformed into a massive, golden light sword, stretching dozens of meters long.
The light sword moved at an incomprehensible speed, charging straight at Sivan with unyielding determination, reaching him in an instant.
Sivan was taken aback and hurriedly tried to use his treasures to defend himself.
But it was too late.
Boom!
The "golden light sword" detonated, releasing all its energy. A golden "mushroom cloud" with a radius of nearly a hundred meters erupted, centered on Sivan.
The players in the Forest City below were first blinded by a blinding light, as if a flashbang had exploded in front of their eyes. Even those who didn't look up were nearly blinded.
After 4 or 5 seconds, a deafening explosion echoed overhead.
Along with the explosion came the shockwave from the massive blast.
The shockwave slammed into the city's ground, causing the health bars of the affected players to plummet to zero, turning them into white light and vanishing from their spots.
Su Yu quickly cast "Ice Barrier" to protect himself from the damage.
But the shockwaves kept coming.
Su Yu used the "Ice Barrier" to block the first wave, the "Lightning Shield" ten times as thick to block the second wave, and he hesitated to use the "Stopwatch" from his backpack.
In the third wave, Su Yu's health was drained to zero, and he turned into white light, losing his "virgin status" in the game.
In the real world, at Su Yu's home.
Su Yu removed his helmet and sat up in bed.
His mind was still processing the recent self-destruction: "Medeline's self-destruction was truly powerful."
Medeline's primary target was Sivan, who undoubtedly took the brunt of the damage. The other nearby powerhouses also suffered significant damage.
Even the residual shockwave was enough to wipe out the players on the ground below the Forest City, and it's estimated that half of the city was destroyed.
Truly, the power of a seventh-rank powerhouse!
"I wonder how Sivan is doing. I hope that old guy got blown to pieces!" Su Yu silently wished for Sivan's demise.
He then took out his phone and opened the official forum to see what the players were saying.
The forum was already in chaos.
"What just happened? I was in the Forest City and suddenly died!"
"I was also in the Forest City. Something exploded above us, and the entire city was gone."
"It seems like the rebel side's seventh-rank powerhouse, Medeline, self-destructed. I was close enough to hear her voice."
"Self-destruct? That's some serious power!"
"I wonder if that old guy Sivan is dead."
...
Su Yu scanned through the players' comments.
Most of the Imperial players in the Forest City were killed, with only those on the outskirts, such as near the city walls, managing to survive.
However, the surviving players posted that the center of the Forest City was now completely shrouded in a cloud of dust, making it impossible to see what was happening inside.
The sky was filled with a massive, chaotic surge of energy, making it unclear which powerful beings had perished in the explosion and which had survived.
...
Su Yu skimmed through the forum but found nothing useful, so he closed it. The half-hour death penalty couldn't be wasted, and he decided to do something to relax his mind and body.
He dialed Xue Wenli's number.
"Beep—Beep—"
The call was quickly answered.
"Hello? Su Yu? What's up?" Xue Wenli's voice rang in his ear.
"Wenli, can you check if there are any ghosts within a fifteen-minute walking distance from me?"
"Sure, let me check."
After a few seconds, she replied, "There is one. It's at the 'Sunshine Zone' KTV, 50 meters east of the intersection of Guangpu Road and Construction Road."
Su Yu hung up, put on his coat, and set off.
Half an hour later, Su Yu returned home after slaying the ghost. He felt refreshed and invigorated!
Killing ghosts was an excellent way to relieve stress. Whenever he felt down or under pressure, he would go hunt a few ghosts to relax his mind and body. It gave him a sense of satisfaction, much like helping an old lady cross the street or performing other good deeds.
Now that the half-hour death penalty was over, Su Yu wanted to check the official forum for any new updates. However, time was short, so he quickly put on his helmet and entered the game.
Upon entering the game, the login screen was different from usual. This time, it had two additional options: "Resurrect on the Spot" and "Resurrect at the Cemetery."
The cemetery was one of the few safe zones in the game where players couldn't engage in PvP. The "Resurrect at the Cemetery" option was primarily to prevent players from being camped. However, with the entire city's players dead, the cemetery would be extremely crowded. After some thought, Su Yu chose "Resurrect on the Spot."
His form appeared in the center of Forest City, next to the Shadow Magic Array.
When Su Yu died, several players had also died alongside him. Most of these players had the same idea, so when Su Yu resurrected, many of them were also reviving around him.
Seeing Su Yu, they greeted him, and he nodded in acknowledgment.
Looking around, the Shadow Magic Array was completely destroyed, and the black mist that once shrouded it had vanished. The residential areas surrounding the square were in ruins, resembling a scene from hell.
The sky was a bleak gray, with dust clouds blocking out the sun. Looking up, Su Yu saw no sign of the powerful beings who had battled in the sky.
Su Yu opened the guild chat and asked, "Did anything significant happen in the game during the past half-hour? And where did the powerful beings who were fighting in the sky go?"
True Red Eye Black Dragon quickly replied, "A player from the rebel side said that the two dukes have already left with their forces. They came with over four hundred people, but only about a hundred remained when they left."
Cloud Shepherd: "The rebel forces outside the city have also retreated."
Laser Pointer: "Sigh, the civilians in Forest City have suffered greatly. Even we, as players, couldn't withstand the explosion's aftermath. The ordinary civilians must have been hit even harder."
Su Yu: "Some of them might have survived by hiding in their houses or cellars. Regardless, we should try to find them and help. Also, if anything significant happens, remember to let us know in the chat room."
True Red Eye Black Dragon: "Understood."
Cloud Shepherd: "Got it."
Laser Pointer: "Will do."
