SSS-Level Flash Strike · Shifting Forms, Changing Shadows!
Whoosh!
As Lin Mo sent an arrow tearing through the air, shooting straight at Nether.
Nether was forced to interrupt his return to the city. He used Flash to create some distance, avoiding Lin Mo's attack.
Because based on their previous exchanges, he knew Lin Mo's damage.
If he didn't dodge this arrow, he really would die.
Whoosh!
Using Shifting Forms, Changing Shadows, he switched positions with the spot where the arrow landed.
This scene left Ji Ningshuang completely baffled.
"What is this?"
"An archer's Flash?"
'Is this even reasonable?'
Knowing that this battle was now unavoidable, Nether stopped running and quickly entered combat mode.
Whoosh!
As a golden book appeared in his left hand.
The SSS-level hidden class Judge's class aura emerged, a pair of enormous golden wings spread out behind Nether.
The pinnacle class of the Angel race, the highest race in the Oracle World, this was truly on another level.
It was obvious, Nether had already unleashed all his strength, intending to fight Lin Mo to the death.
Unfortunately, Lin Mo only made a slight move, and that was already the pinnacle of his opponent's strength.
SSS-level Soul Archer ultimate skill!
World-Destroying · Storm of Arrows!
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
After one wave of arrows, the thirteen Level 74 Skeleton Warriors summoned by Nether through his A-level talent Undead Summoning, then pushed to their limits through multiple A-level buff talents, had an average strength nearly reaching that of Tier 3 BOSSes.
In an instant, they were all killed.
They didn't even have room to struggle.
At the same time, Nether locked onto Lin Mo and unleashed the second potential of the SSS-level hidden class Judge, Judgment (passes judgment on a single enemy, causing the target's final damage to be reduced by 99% for ten minutes).
Whoosh!
Golden light enveloped Lin Mo, and less than 0.1 seconds after the Judgment effect descended, behind him, golden light continuously bloomed beneath Divine Descent Seraph · Siya's feet. Her Ancestral-level talent [Divine Descent] instantly dispelled the Judgment effect from Lin Mo.
Lin Mo looked at Nether, who had used everything he had yet still couldn't hurt him in the slightest.
"You understand."
"Your SSS-level and my SSS-level, they aren't on the same level."
The first time, in the Divine Tomb dungeon.
The second time, on the Super-God Arena stage.
Their first two encounters had only been enough for Nether to realize that he wasn't Lin Mo's opponent.
Until this time, only now did Nether deeply realize that the gap between himself and Lin Mo was simply worlds apart.
At the same time, even Ji Ningshuang on the other side couldn't help being shocked.
Ever since she had teleported from the Starshine City of the Elven race to the Beast race's Inferno City, through her interactions with him over these past few days, Ji Ningshuang knew exactly how strong Nether, an SSS-level hidden-class Judge, was.
At the very least, he was far stronger than herself, the former number-one powerhouse on Starshine City's rankings.
'Yet even a top-tier powerhouse like this doesn't have the slightest ability to resist when facing Rulebound?'
'Rulebound's strength is actually this terrifying! He can completely crush even the highest-level SSS hidden classes in Oracle!'
Lin Mo countered every move as it came.
Seeing that Nether had already used everything he had and had nothing left to use, Lin Mo didn't waste any more time dragging things out with him.
He took an SSS-level magic scroll that he had prepared specifically for Nether and Frost Dance from his inventory and crushed it.
[Ding~ You used the SSS-level magic scroll Instant Kill · Eternal Perdition on player Nether. Kill the opponent within ten minutes, and all of the opponent's resources will drop (excluding bound items), while the opponent will receive the penalty of having their level reduced to zero, and their experience gain will be reduced by 90% for 72 hours! You have obtained a permanent bonus effect: Kill Penalty +1% (3/100)!]
As Ji Ningshuang watched Lin Mo crush a magic scroll, a layer of red light enveloped Nether.
Although she didn't know what kind of scroll Lin Mo had used, Ji Ningshuang could guess at a glance, "This is bad! He's going to cripple Nether!"
Ji Ningshuang hardened her heart.
As if she had made some kind of decision in an instant.
She raised her right hand and aimed her palm at Nether. The jade-green bracelet worn around her right wrist split off an illusion, which flew to Nether's wrist and automatically equipped itself.
At the same time, Nether received a system notification.
[Ding~ Your teammate Frost Dance used the divine artifact skill · Sacrifice for Righteousness on you. The skill effect will last for 600 seconds!]
Before Nether could react to what this was.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
With the Illusory World · Thunder Set's skill Thunderous Force activated, Lin Mo unleashed one SSS-level Heaven-Slaying · Seven-Star Continuous Shot, firing ten Star Arrows in succession. They descended from the sky and pierced through Nether.
-44222 (Critical Hit)!
-45320 (Critical Hit)!
-46680 (Critical Hit)!
In an instant, Nether's HP bar was emptied.
Whoosh!
He turned into a streak of white light and floated away.
At the same time, the effect of the SSS-level magic scroll Instant Kill · Eternal Perdition was triggered.
All the equipment, gold coins, potions, and the God-Sealing Map on Nether's body all dropped.
Lin Mo hadn't originally wanted to cripple Nether either.
After all, in his previous life, he had been the first general under Empress Xiyue, Ning Xi.
The second-strongest player in the Dragon Nation server.
He had devoted himself to defending Dragon Nation and given his life to protecting Ning Xi.
But last time in the Divine Tomb, Lin Mo had already given Nether a chance and let him go.
Yet as a result, he still wanted to deal with Lin Mo by releasing the Ghost King's means.
Even though Lin Mo knew that in this life, Nether had been deceived by someone else, he still couldn't allow him to threaten him again and again.
"I can only cripple him for now."
"After dealing with the mastermind behind the scenes, I'll recruit him."
After all, even if he was crippled, Nether's SSS-level hidden class Judge would still remain.
With the assistance of the two SSS-level talent holders, Lin Mo and Ning Xi, in the later stages, if he wanted to rise again, it would be incredibly easy.
Moreover, the talents Nether currently possessed were all merely A-level talents. He hadn't fully brought out the potential of the SSS-level hidden class Judge at all.
That was why Nether was completely no match for Lin Mo.
Otherwise, logically speaking, the value of an SSS-level hidden class far surpassed that of an SSS-level talent.
At least before Lin Mo obtained the SSS-level Ghost race hidden class [Ghost Emperor], Nether could have completely crushed Lin Mo.
Of course, the reason Lin Mo was willing to use the SSS-level magic scroll Instant Kill · Eternal Perdition against Nether was also because he wanted to make the God-Sealing Map drop from him.
After all, that thing wasn't guaranteed to drop upon death.
If he killed Nether normally and the God-Sealing Map didn't drop, he would lose more than he gained.
And a target killed by the SSS-level magic scroll Instant Kill · Eternal Perdition would drop all non-bound resources they were carrying.
At this moment, Lin Mo arrived at the place where Nether had died and disappeared, picking up all the items he had dropped, including the God-Sealing Map.
Immediately afterward, he turned around and looked toward Ji Ningshuang, who was being controlled by the Heavenly Bewitching Fox Clan Empress · A Li.
Lin Mo came before Ji Ningshuang and took another SSS-level magic scroll Instant Kill · Eternal Perdition from his inventory.
"This is the last chance I'm giving you."
"Tell me the boss's identity."
"You only need to answer this one question, and I'll let you go."
Seeing the effects of the SSS-level magic scroll Instant Kill · Eternal Perdition that Lin Mo had deliberately displayed, a hint of fear immediately appeared in Ji Ningshuang's originally disdainful, cold eyes.
