All Time Marksman

Chapter 121 - Determination To Not Fall

Li Xiaosheng was in front, his sword was prepared to strike, his posture was similar to how Qiao Jiao position herself when the squad is in a battle formation.

And at the same time Qin Shanyuan, the second swordswoman in the squad also positioned herself at the front but the difference is that she did not adopt the posture of Qiao Jiao but rather another swordsman that also uses both shield and sword. Meanwhile at their left wing is Zhong Zian, and at their middle was Zia Tengfei the squad's second healer. 

"Alright, I will be leading the battle" Li Xiaosheng quickly raised his suggestion to be the leader. But for him to be the leader he needs all of them to agree with him. "Alright, you are going to be the leader" and all of them replied. After that, a sound of alarm echoed throughout the dome. And then spawned the first enemies of the wave, 10, type 3 ghouls, 3 Naga Slaughterers, and 7, type 2 Lone spiked wolves. 

"This is going be hard," Zhong Zhian stated but then Li Xioahseng replied "Zhong Zhian use your deceive to oppress the 3 Naga Slaughterers delay them as much as possible as I fend off the ghouls. But before you attack first do a buff with your damage output and then increased your agility for quick dodge from heavy attacks.

After that Qin Shanyun focuses on the 7 Lone spiked wolves, Zia Tengfei supports Qin Shanyun if she fought. Does everybody have their places we shall proceed with that execution of battle plan but still that kind of battle plan might change and cannot fully stay as like that" 

And all of them nodded and the first ones to attack them were the 10, type 3 ghouls that were different from before the type 3 ghouls have long arms and sharp claws, it also has sharp wide jaw. Its stature was a bit like a humpback as it slowly transforming into a demonic-like form with bloody stripes on its body. 

Because of their slim body, the ghouls were agile enough to increase their speed while on charge. The first one to made contact was Li Xiaosheng who was at the front, he then swings his sword as he whispered "Whirlwind of Destruction!" after swinging his sword whirling sword strikes appeared, the first 3, type 3 ghouls that attacked were directly hit and their bodies split in half as they were fully targeted by the ability skill of Li Xiaosheng. 

But then after the 3 first was killed another 3 more appeared behind them and from that Li Xiaosheng raised his sword as he blocked three consecutive claw slash that was directed at him. *CLING CLANG CLING CLANG* the claw and the sword spark as they clashed.

"This is not a play but most likely this will be a good thing to practice on. I need to heal!" Li Xiaoshen exclaimed as he was slashed by a claw on the left shoulder. 

Zia Tengfei quickly raised her staff and raised her hand directed at Li Xiaosheng and then a flash of light with sprinkling aura appeared slowly healing Li Xioasheng as he fends off the 3, type 3 ghouls that are still oppressing him.

Meanwhile, on the other side, the Zhong Zhian whispered "Deceive" and then 2 clones of him appeared behind him. After that, he unsheathes his 2 daggers that are named the Bloody daggers as it gives a buff of [Eternal Bleeding].

It is when the blade was able to strike an enemy and the wound that it will inflict on the enemy will continue to bleed the enemy until it dies due to the cause of loss of a lot of blood. After that, he whispered "Midnight Slash" and then "Death Terror" with that Zhong Zhian's eyes turned red with the Death terror buff have taken effect.

After that, he pushed forward as the Naga Slaughterer also has begun to move to try and flank their formation. The first engagement is when Zhong Zhian leaps forward and tried to stab the Naga Slaughterer in one strike but that is one of the wrong moves when fighting a Naga Slaughterer.

As Zhong Zhioan about to stab the Naga Slaughterer head one. The Naga Salughtrrer Slither quickly and then with one full swing Zhong Zhian's body was hit by its trident. And Zhong Zhian flew and slammed his body at the wall. 

Jin looked at Fang Shirong, "Well I guess you really did teach him that, Fang Shirong" And then Fang Shirong looked at Jin "Well…" and then Jin continued to say "it is fine I know that you are working hard on teaching that cadet but he still needs to learn a lot of things in terms of fighting." 

Zhong Zhian tried to get up and tried to push himself so that he might stand up once more. But because of the impact that he received from the trident and his body slamming on the metallic wall. He stayed down ss his whole body hurts. Meanwhile, his clones were able to fight but soon enough they were easily taken down by the Naga Slaughterer. And from that moment Zhong Zhian felt 2 more tridents slash from his left and right rib. "Ughk" 

And as that happened Zia Tengfei tried to run toward Zhong Zhian but she was then blocked by the 3 Naga Slaughterers. Li Xiaosheng on the other hand was still busy fighting the 3 ghouls that are in front of him while the other 4 ghouls were at the back on standby.

"Tch, this is really worrisome!" Li Xiaosheng exclaimed and then he looked at Qin Shanyun and she was able to take down 2 Lone spiked wolves on her own by the problem was that she too was being overwhelmed. 

She swings her sword, and whispers "Defiant Slash!" but because of her repetitive movements the Lone spiked wolves were able to dodge her defiant slash and because of that, it has become her weakness and hole in her movements. And from that one of the Lone Spiked wolf that was waiting for an opening and from that simple wrong ability skill.

It cost her life, as soon as she finished her ability skill alone spiked wolf that was at her back leaps towards her and then bit her neck and then she felt electrocution."Arghh!" and then suddenly Qin Shanyuan got clashed and bitted by the Lone Spiked wolf and because of that she was electrocuted and dropped on the ground.

And from that moment Li Xiaosheng looked at his teammates and almost all of them were taken care of by the monsters. "Zia Tengfei where are you at?" and then Zia Tengfei replied "I am right her Li Xiaosheng" and after Li Xiaosheng heard Zia Tengfei reply. Li Xiaosheng shouted "Summon your Angel and do a holy smite and totem!" after that Zia Tengfei nodded.

But then the Naga Slaughterer charged forward as they slither to increase their speed of attack, and one of them was at the front while the other was going to the back of Zia Tengfei and as of that moment Zia Tengfei was about to raise her staff, she was then slashed by a trident "UAGHHK" her eyes widen as she felt the impact of the trident to her body and she flew away from her location.

And as Zia Tengfei flew away it was the time that Li Xiaosheng was able to stab his sword into the flesh of one of the 3, type 3 ghouls that have been oppressing him. And as he thrust it deeper the ghoul created a shrieking noise and because of that Li Xaisoheng pulls out his sword while kicking the chest of the ghoul. And after that, another attack from the ghouls followed. The claw and the sword were not the best of the match because the sword needs to defend against 4 claws at the same time.

But when he tried to call out the names of his teammate's none of them answered. And so because of that Li Xioasheng whispered "Last Sword Call!" and his sword changes its aura from normal orange to pink. And soon Li Xiosheng felt the buff of damage output through his hands. After that Li Xiaosheng also whispered "Defiant call!" as he raised his sword to the air. And then going back into the position. And from that buff, he felt a sudden increase in his defensive capabilities. 

  "This is my last chance to prove myself! RAHHHHH!" Li Xiaosheng leap forward as he raised his sword, and as he was going down he then shouted loudly "IRON SLASH!" and after that his sword change color to orange. And as he sword was came bearing down the had of the ghoul. The ghoul tried to block the sword but its claws were too fragile and it easily broke and because of that, the Ghoul was split in half. Li Xiaosheng turns around and he saw another type 3 ghoul that was waiting for him to attack. 

"What are you going to just stare at me?" Li Xiaosheng boastingly said as he put his sword on his shoulder and saw that he was the only one that was not taken down by the monsters. And as hew as turning around he slowly sees the whole picture he was already surrounded and no longer able to fight no more.

But Li Xiaosheng smiled and then he aimed his sword onto the ground without any doubts he struck the ground simultaneously kneeling and then he whispered "Fallen Sword!" and from his tone of voice, it was like his last chance to recover.

And his sword shines yellow suddenly out of nowhere swords pop out from the ground and simultaneously piercing through the flesh of each of the monsters that were near Li Xioasheng

Li Xioasheng smiled as he grips the handle of his sword, after that, he whispered as his lips were dry and his sweat dripping from his head "I won't be the one falling all by myself today" after that last words his vision darkened and his body dropped on the ground.

Jin looked at them and crossed his arms. "They are not ready for the fight or even be sent out there"
