Villain MMORPG: Almighty Devil Emperor and His Seven Demonic Wives

Villain Ch 946. One Player Vs One Guild [Part 3]

"Fire!" commanded Elio, his voice stern as he continued to march toward Allen. His eyes remained locked on the Devil Emperor, whose casual stride exuded an unsettling confidence.

The hunters and magic users in Elio's guild responded immediately, unleashing a barrage of arrows and spells aimed directly at Allen. The air buzzed with their coordinated attack.

Meanwhile, the alchemists, led by Darren, summoned their Mandragoras and Carnivore plants once more. These monstrous plants burst from the ground, their deadly tendrils and gnashing jaws ready to wreak havoc. The previous plants had been destroyed by the deadly combination of Zoe's Tsunami and the thunder spells from Allen and Bella.

They summoned new plants with renewed determination, hoping to overwhelm the Devil Emperor.

The attacks hurtled toward him. Allen's smirk widened. He could see the resolve in the players' eyes, but he also saw their naivety. They believed they could take him down with brute force, but they were mistaken.

"Fools," he stated in a cold, detached voice, as if their efforts were nothing more than a minor inconvenience or a fatal mistake to be precise.

With a simple gesture, Allen activated his barrier skill. A transparent dome of dark energy enveloped him, deflecting the oncoming attacks. Arrows shattered against the barrier, and spells dissipated upon impact, their energy fizzling out harmlessly. The Mandragoras and Carnivore plants lashed out, but their tendrils were repelled by the impenetrable shield.

The sound of the impact was an orchestra of destruction. The crackle of magic, the clang of arrows, and the guttural growls of the summoned plants filled the air, only to be met with the impenetrable force of Allen's barrier. The players' attacks, which had seemed so potent a moment ago, now seemed futile against the unyielding shield.

With that many attacks thrown at Allen, especially the fire, ice, and thunder from the high-level magic users, the resulting explosion was massive. The ground shook as the spells collided with his barrier, creating a thunderous roar that echoed through the hall.

Smoke and debris scattered in all directions, obscuring the vision of everyone present and blanketing the battlefield in a thick, impenetrable haze.

A grin appeared on Allen's face as he surveyed the chaotic scene. The smoke provided the perfect cover for his next move. With a swift command, he activated his Shadow Step skill, vanishing from his position. In an instant, he reappeared behind the Carnivore plants, his dark form blending seamlessly with the shadows.

His sword glinted menacingly as he struck, plunging it deep into the nearest Carnivore plant.

[Critical Hit!]

[You have pierced a Carnivore plant by 10223 HP!]

The monstrous plant let out a guttural roar, its tendrils thrashing wildly as it collapsed. Without pausing, Allen moved to the next plant, his movements fluid and precise. He slashed and stabbed, cutting down the summoned creatures one by one with ruthless efficiency.

Allen knew he had to eliminate the plants first. Plant and insect-type monsters had an uncanny ability to detect their targets without relying on sight, making them particularly dangerous in the smoke-filled environment. He relished the challenge, his heart pounding with exhilaration as he decimated the monstrous vegetation.

Meanwhile, Elio and his guild members were disoriented by the thick smoke. They looked back and forth, trying to discern the Devil Emperor's location. The sounds of the battle—the grunts and roars of the dying plants, the clash between steel and the plant tendrils—provided them with clues, but the smoke made it difficult to pinpoint Allen's exact position.

"Stay alert!" Elio commanded, his voice cutting through the confusion.

"Demonic Lance." Allen's cold, menacing voice echoed through the smoke.

Elio gasped. He knew that skill was aimed at him and his guild. The best option was to avoid it, but with their vision still obscured by the thinning smoke, moving around randomly would be both difficult and dangerous. Panic and tension gripped Elio as he anticipated the imminent attack.

The lances started to fall from the sky, dark and deadly, piercing through the smoke like sinister spears. Each lance struck with devastating force, causing explosions of dark energy upon impact. The battlefield was thrown into further chaos as the players were hit. Cries of pain and alarm filled the air, mingling with the sounds of shattering stone and tearing flesh.

"Defense!" Elio shouted, his voice rising above the din. He quickly organized his guild into a defensive formation, with the healers and ranged combatants in the middle, protected by a ring of paladins and knights at the front with their shields. The shimmer of barriers surrounded them, providing an additional layer of protection against the relentless assault.

The sound of the lances striking the ground was deafening, each impact resonating with a bone-rattling thud. The players within the formation felt the vibrations under their feet, the force of the attack shaking their resolve but not breaking it. The injured scrambled to open their inventories, gulping down potions to replenish their health and mana.

The smoke began to thin, revealing the battered but determined faces of Elio's guild members. Despite the injuries and the chaos, their eyes burned with resolve. They knew the battle was far from over, and they were ready to continue the fight.

Allen watched from a distance, his dark eyes gleaming with sadistic pleasure. He thrived on the chaos and pain he inflicted, each successful strike fueling his twisted satisfaction. The players' resolve only added to his excitement, making the battle more thrilling and intense.

Allen activated his Shadow Step once more, vanishing from sight and reappearing in the midst of Elio's carefully organized defense formation. The sudden appearance of the Devil Emperor among them caused a collective gasp of horror and surprise. The players turned to their center, their hearts pounding as they realized their worst fear had materialized. The emperor was in their midst!

"Telekinesis Blast…" Allen's cold voice cut through the chaos, sending a chill down their spines.

Before they could react, an invisible force erupted from him, blasting the surrounding players into the air. Their shocked cries filled the hall as they were thrown like ragdolls, limbs flailing helplessly.
