The sight of dozens of fully healed third-class warriors and even knights getting instantly killed, together with the group critical damage numbers reaching as high as 180,000, gave the players from the five guilds approaching from behind an impact they had never experienced before.
Looking ahead, Lin Mo stood among the ruins, equipment glow and skill effects shining together, golden lightning flashing around his body like the lord of thunder.
All the players from the five guilds felt their legs weaken and chills run down their backs without realizing it.
"What the hell… is that damage?"
"Holy shit! Why are those damage numbers so long? They're longer than IDs! Six digits?"
"No, wait! His damage was high before, but not this ridiculous! Did he mutate or something?"
"How the hell are we supposed to fight this?"
"Wizards, move up! Use control tactics!"
"That's right! No matter how high his damage is, once he gets controlled, he won't have room to fight back! At that point, forget 180,000, even if he can deal 1.8 billion damage, he's still meat on the chopping block!"
These players reacted quickly enough.
After their front line got wiped out by one ultimate skill, they immediately changed tactics.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
From the crowds on all sides, dozens of Light Wizards and Dark Wizards stepped forward.
They locked onto Lin Mo inside the encirclement and cast spells.
Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!
At once—
Immobilization Spell!
Halo Art!
Death Bind!
Soul Suppression!
All kinds of powerful hard control skills poured down like a storm and covered Lin Mo.
In an instant, Lin Mo was locked in place and unable to move.
Seeing this, Tyrant raised the corner of his mouth and let out a cold laugh, "You really think having some damage makes you invincible? Since you love killing so much, then keep killing after getting controlled."
The moment Tyrant finished speaking, all the wizard players around who were casting control skills on Lin Mo suddenly exploded with clouds of blood even though they had not been attacked. White true damage numbers rose above their heads one after another.
-11799!
-11799!
-11799!
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
Countless white lights shot into the sky from every direction.
All the wizards from the five guilds were crushed to death by an invisible force.
On Tyrant's fierce-looking face, the arrogant smile from a second ago was replaced by shock the next second.
"What?"
"How is this possible!"
At this moment, beside Lin Mo, the Ancestral pet, Black Gold Strong-Maned Pig, held a nine-toothed rake and guarded its master without leaving his side.
One of Strong-Maned Pig's Ancestral talent effects, [Marshal Tianpeng], was: when it received attacks itself, or shared damage for its master, it dealt true reflected damage equal to 1% of its max HP to the attacker.
The wizards from the five guilds had triggered Strong-Maned Pig's reflected damage by attacking Lin Mo, which caused them to be killed in return.
With the peerless Bloodbath set skill Bloodbath Battle activated, Strong-Maned Pig's HP limit had reached as high as 1,179,900 points.
Even with only 1% reflected damage, on top of that HP base, it was still terrifying.
At the current stage, a level fifty-plus third-class wizard having slightly over ten thousand HP was already considered outstanding.
In reality, most third-class wizards did not even have five-digit HP.
It was easy to imagine that against Strong-Maned Pig's 11,799 true reflected damage, they had no way to survive.
After the wizards of the five guilds ended up lifting a rock only to smash their own feet, failing to control Lin Mo and getting themselves killed instead, freed from control, Lin Mo turned into a god of slaughter.
Holding Phantom World: Thunder's Wrath, he locked onto the players around him and launched indiscriminate attacks.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
-43588 (Critical)!
-44135 (Critical)!
-44444 (Critical)!
With Thunderous Might activated, Lin Mo's physical attack reached as high as 23,764 points.
Combined with the Thunder set's 50% damage boost and 50% armor penetration effect, even without skills, his insanely high critical normal attacks were enough to kill anything in sight.
Amid wave after wave of screams, wherever Lin Mo's arrows pointed, not a single man could block even one shot.
And every time Lin Mo fired an arrow and killed a player, it also summoned a Thunder Arrow that randomly attacked another enemy within range.
Even normal attacks with a 100% damage coefficient could instantly kill people.
As for Thunder Arrow with a 250% damage coefficient, there was no need to say more.
Which meant that every arrow Lin Mo fired was basically killing two people at once.
It did not matter whether the target was an archer, mage, warrior, or even a heavily armored knight.
To Lin Mo, there was no difference.
All of them died in one arrow.
Meanwhile, the attacks from the players of the five guilds landed on Lin Mo with identical forced damage numbers of -1. Not only could they not hurt him at all, but they also received 11,799 points of true reflected damage and killed themselves instead.
"Damn it! Fine, I get that Soul Archers have high attack and damage, but why the hell is his defense so high too?"
"Divine Archer's Armor-Piercing Arrow, Sword Shield Warrior's Armor-Breaking Strike, High Priest's Weakening! We stacked armor break to the max and still can't damage him?"
"Fuck! Just how much defense does he have?"
The players from the five guilds around him all fell into panic while facing this "iron lump" called Lin Mo.
And honestly, it was no wonder they were terrified.
After all, skills like Divine Archer's Armor-Piercing Arrow, Sword Shield Warrior's Armor-Breaking Strike, and High Priest's Weakening all had armor penetration effects.
Even though the skill grades at this stage were not high, mostly E to D rank, and their armor break values were limited. Once the armor penetration skills from multiple classes stacked together, they could still easily reach around 30% armor break.
With proper team tactics and maxed-out armor penetration, they could even fight level 60 third or fourth-tier bosses.
Yet even after fully stacking armor break, the damage they dealt to Lin Mo was still the unbroken-defense forced damage of -1.
Who wouldn't start doubting life at that point?
That it went beyond their understanding was also within Lin Mo's expectations.
After all, who could have guessed that Lin Mo was currently wearing a full Tier 5 golden Thunder set with a base defense exceeding 9,000.
And after the set effects were doubled by Thunderous Might, it also gained 40% armor break resistance and 40% penetration resistance, perfectly blocking the stacked armor break and penetration skills from all classes.
In this ultimate state, Lin Mo had already become invincible.
Meanwhile, for the players of the five guilds, attacking Lin Mo not only failed to hurt him, it got themselves killed instead.
And if they did not attack him, they would still end up waiting to be one-shot by an arrow.
At this moment, their formation completely fell apart.
Even the guild presidents felt their scalps go numb.
"Damn it! How did this kid become so much stronger after coming out of the secret realm?"
"What the hell did he do in there?"
"Brother Tyrant, it's not that we don't want to help. We also want to kill Rulebound, but there's seriously nothing we can do."
"Is Rulebound even human? He's a damn monster! We should retreat now! Otherwise, if the people from Divine Nation surround us later, we won't even be able to run!"
Emperors and Generals had barely finished speaking when his words came true.
A report came from the outer perimeter, "This is bad, Presidents! The Divine Nation Guild is here. They've already surrounded the whole city."
Hearing this news, the expressions of the guild presidents changed completely.
In an instant, it felt like the sky had collapsed.
"Damn it! Fuck! Jinx!"
"It's over! We're really done this time! We got screwed again!"
"Again with Divine Nation! Great, now we're doomed!"
