The Night Sun

Chapter 15: First Hit



At this moment, the entire streaming platform was in an uproar.

No one could believe what was happening.

A new record was set today.

The record for the most simultaneous deaths in the game!

Within a mere few seconds of difference, who knows how many players on the server were defeated.

Almost every stream channel had the same messages exploding continuously in the chat.

[Game for dogs to play.]

No One took a deep breath.

First, he needed to see what caused that sudden team wipe.

No One immediately pulled up the slow-motion replay of the initial stage.

There were a bunch of overlapping skill animations, but he could still make out a bit of the Phantom of The Immortal Blade’s movements.

Was it... sweeping its sword?

Even before the damage activated, the Phantom of The Immortal Blade directly performed a sweeping sword attack, dealing damage across the entire map.

The color of the attack range notification was...

Purple!?

A purple attack? This color had never appeared before in First World.

Not only did No One notice, but many other teams in the dungeon also saw it.

[Purple attack!!!? What is that!!!?]

[LOL. Game for dogs to play.]

[Even dogs wouldn't bother playing.]

[The yellow attack makes one scoff. The red attack shocks people. The purple attack causes sudden death. LOLOLOLOLOL.]

Countless comments erupted.

No One quickly messaged in the guild to inform everyone.

【No 11: Has anyone watched a stream of a team using a Martial Artist and seen if they could parry that attack?】

Martial Artists have a skill called 【Master Parry】 which, when activated, automatically parries without the need for timing.

Most teams using a Martial Artist would activate it first before charging in.

【Mì Hảu Hảu: Pork Rice Restaurant's team used a Martial Artist. The parry skill was activated but got penetrated.】

Just as No One suspected.

The purple attack penetrates the parry.

There's one more thing.

"Lady Lam, are you thinking what I'm thinking?" Sword of Love asked.

"Yes."

Lady Lam, having been revived, immediately opened the system chat to check the damage source.

【Lady Lam took 9999999 true damage from Star-Slaying Strike. Sudden death.】

"It's true damage."

"What a dog." Cherished Dream gritted his teeth.

This kind of damage was newly introduced in the latest update.

It bypasses protection, bypasses defense stats.

That's why it shattered both the Indestructible Wall and the team's array of defensive spells.

"So what do we do now?" TwinBird asked.

"I've thought of a method, but first, we need to change the lineup." No One sighed.

"For this lineup, switch it to me, Cherished Dream, Sword of Love, and TwinBird."

"Alright."

Immediately, Lady Lam opened the party interface and started changing the team members.

.

.

.

"Ready?" Cherished Dream began chanting a spell, asking No One.

"Yes."

No One stood alone in the hall area.

The game designers intentionally made the map such that for the longest range skill attack, you had to stand in the hall. They made sure players couldn't deal damage from outside.

However, let's see how far their calculations go.

"Kid, hang in there!" Sword of Love raised his thumb in encouragement.

"Worry about yourself."

Sword of Love stood right behind No One, just a hair's breadth away from entering the hall.

The special attack from the Phantom of The Immortal Blade earlier swept the entire hall.

So now, only No One stood inside the hall."Begin!"

This will be a gamble.

TwinBird immediately released a falcon, activating 【Falcon's Mark】 on the boss.

【Path of The Star Transformation】

【Ritual of War Declaration】

【Yin Yang Formation】

【Falcon Wing Battlecry】

【I Borrow An Ounce of Ink from the World】- Song Activated.

【Attack Increase!】

【Critical Increase!】

Simultaneously, debuffs appeared on the Phantom of The Immortal Blade.

【Defense Reduction!】

【Accuracy Reduction!】

"GO!"

No One immediately rushed in.

The 【Yin-Yang Twin Blades】 were drawn instantly.

No One activated the skill as he stood right next to the Phantom of The Immortal Blade.

【First Move of the Blade Dancer: Sever The Sun And Moon】!!

In a flash.

This time, there was no skill animation covering the map, and everyone could clearly see the skill.

The entire team held their breath.

The chat channel held its breath with them.

A purple circle appeared throughout the hall.

Swoosh.

BANG.

This time, they witnessed what had killed them before.

A beautiful sword strike, sweeping through all directions.

Twinkling starlight covered the hall."Ha-"

"HAHAHAHA!! WE DID IT! WE DID IT!"

Cheers erupted across all chat channels.

No One wasn't the only one who thought of this.

True damage pierced through shields and defenses.

However.

【Blessing of the Peerless Dancer】 granted 100% Evasion for the first attack.

The evasion stat remained impenetrable!

The After Image animation triggered upon the successful dodge.

Numerous chat rooms exploded with excitement.

Many other chat rooms were cheering.

"Right! Right now!"

"Attack it!"

Sword of Love charged in directly.

The entire team began to follow.

According to No One's prediction, only one purple strike would be unleashed early in the game.

Now is the time to counterattack!

In other chat rooms, many were also taking similar actions.

"Attack!!!"

Almost simultaneously, thousands facing the dungeon unleashed their skills on the Phantom of The Immortal Blade.

Whoosh.

Miss.

All other chat channels were stunned.

The direct attack barely grazed the Phantom of The Immortal Blade, as if slicing through smoke.

What?

It's the second effect.

【Phantom: The owner cannot be hit.】

But many teams have already used skills to reduce evasion, haven't they? For instance, the Falconer's 【Falcon's Mark】 or the Archer's 【Mark】.

No One chuckled.

I bet everyone was surprised.

We've all been fooled by this effect.

It's not a 100% Evasion buff for the Boss.

It's a kind of shield. Similar to how No One would attack the mist.

The damage dealt by the Blade Dancer is the truest damage!!!!

【No 11 used Sever The Sun And Moon, dealing 143,032 damage to the Phantom of The Immortal Blade.】

At the same time, the system across the First World simultaneously announced.

【Congratulations to player No 11 for being the first to deal damage to the Phantom Memory Sword Immortal.】

Oh.

"OH OH OH OH OH OH!!!!!!"

The guild chat was about to explode.

【No One is forever at the top. Thirty years of the west river, don't underestimate the Poor Bard!】

【No One is forever at the top. Thirty years of the west river, don't underestimate the Poor Bard!】

【No One is forever at the top. Thirty years of the west river, don't underestimate the Poor Bard!】

【No One is forever at the top. Thirty years of the west river, don't underestimate the Poor Bard!】 ...

The entire guild chat was filled with just that line.

Even the online chat channels followed suit.

【No One is forever at the top. Thirty years of the west river, don't underestimate the Poor Bard!】

【No One is forever at the top. Thirty years of the west river, don't underestimate the Poor Bard!】 . . .

Instantly, the number of viewers on Moonlight Clan's livestream surged to hundreds of thousands.

The only player who managed to deal damage to the Phantom of The Immortal Blade this round!

"We don't have time to celebrate, seize this opportunity, Cherished Dream, Sword of Love!"

"Got it! Leave it to your brother!" Sword of Love was already close to the boss. He slid directly on the ground, readying himself to draw his sword.Like a samurai ready to draw his sword from its sheath.

"Damn! This is so exciting! My blood is boiling!!!" Sword of Love chuckled gleefully.

"Don't celebrate early, take action!"

The Moonlight Clan team was more excited than ever.

"This sword..."

"【This Sword, Shall Cleave Not Men But The Principles.】!"

No One, Cherished Dream, TwinBird, and Sword of Love shouted in unison.

"Embed the entire galaxy into this blade. Tear this universe apart with a single slash..."

"Path Of The. Star. Transformation." Cherished Dream chanted.

【Path of The Star Transformation】

The second activation reset the entire team's skills.

【Ritual of War Declaration】

【Yin Yang Formation】

【Falcon Wing Battlecry】

【Falcon's Mark】

Surprised?

Except for Path of The Star Transformation, all the buff skills just used could be reset!

Activating the buffs now was intentional.

The Path of The Star Transformation was timed precisely after Principles Cleaving was initialized and was on cooldown.

Path of The Star Transformation directly reset Cleaviing The Principles.

"ONCE MORE!"

The entire team shouted explosively.

【This Sword, Shall Cleave Not Men But The Principles.】

【First Move of the Blade Dancer: Sever The Sun And Moon】

Fight ! Hit it for me!!!!

*SWISH.*

Sword of Love's strike hit directly.

Immediately after, Sever The Sun And Moon from the twin swords struck directly as well.

And finally, once more Principles Cleaving was unleashed.

Explosion erupted.

As No One thought.

He opened the damage log.

【No 11 used Sever The Sun And Moon and dealt 143,032 damage to Phantom Memory Sword Immortal.】

【Making Love with the Sword used This Sword, Shall Cleave Not Men But The Principles. and erased 1,223,332 of Phantom Memory Sword Immortal's maximum health.】

【Making Love with the Sword used This Sword, Shall Cleave Not Men But The Principles. and erased 1,223,332 of Phantom Memory Sword Immortal's maximum health.】

【No 11 used Sever The Sun And Moon and dealt 144,478 damage to Phantom Memory Sword Immortal.】

Sever Chaos directly reduced the Boss's maximum health. It wasn't even stopped by the Phantom.

It's even more terrifying than true damage!

"Damn it. Attack! Everyone, attack!!!!"

"Of course! Take it all!!! HA HA HA HA!!! I'm so goddamn horny right now !" Sword of Love laughed manically, slashing at the boss even though the regular attacks did no damage.
