My Misfortune Crushed Instances

For Dragon Country, the worst-case scenario is for Ulysses to reach the battlefield before Li Rui.

When the strongest expert of the Western Kingdom appears on the battlefield, the situation becomes one-sided.

The Polar Alliance is merely here to reap the benefits without resorting to desperate measures, with the Archbishop nowhere near. Dragon Country made a misjudgment due to having too few Prophets, leading to a deployment of fewer forces.

Now, the Western Kingdom can completely suppress the other two factions, the only issue is whom Ulysses’s target truly is.

Logically speaking, Vons is undoubtedly a better target because his potential is clearly greater.

Cheng Mingyue also intentionally guides this direction, ordering all Dragon Country members to shift sideways, allowing the Western Kingdom to better confront the Polar Alliance.

This strategy succeeds as Ulysses transforms into a streak of light, moving even faster than the Divine Son’s Ice Storm, finding an opening and darting through.

Honestly, if it weren’t for being part of different factions, Cheng Mingyue would even want to buff him a few times.

She wishes that Ulysses would take down Vons at this moment, that Rain Summoner wielding the Power of Ice and Snow is too formidable and so young. If he survives until the end of this Secret Realm battle and acquires a couple of suitable Legendary Level items or skills, he’ll certainly become a major threat in the future, potentially more than Li Rui.

But she doesn’t dare risk assisting Ulysses and continues to maintain the formation, having allies stir things here.

Swish!

Several streaks of light rush into allied Extraordinary’s bodies, granting them powerful buffs. Before they even act, they see control skills locking the space near enemies, greatly reducing their movement area.

These reliable team members, who can control and support at the same time, make things much easier. Several, including Ho Huangzun, seize the opportunity to press forward.

Slash!

A sword strikes down, and another Polar Alliance Extraordinary succumbs and departs.

They steadily compress the enemy’s numbers, thanks to Ulysses’s appearance.

Cheng Mingyue doesn’t rush into the front line, spending most of the time in the back, overseeing the overall situation, observing all directions to maximize her control and support capabilities.

However, at this moment, she hesitates somewhat.

In the Polar Alliance’s camp, there’s an Extraordinary who seems to be Bishop level, having arrived in the second wave on the battlefield. Judging by the exhibited strength, he’s akin to the forefront of supernovas, but certainly not in the top three.

In the disadvantage of numbers, even Ho Huangzun, with the ability to surpass him, cannot extricate himself. If Cheng Mingyue doesn’t go, there’s really no way to handle him.

After much deliberation, she intensifies her support power, applying an Epic Level group amplification skill on several key allies, then switches to an aggressive stance and charges forward.

Cheng Mingyue’s aggressive capabilities mainly involve close combat. The spear-throwing antics are merely for dealing with less formidable Demon Race. Against skilled Extraordinaries, she has to engage closely.

With a combat short knife in hand, she leaps several times to cut into the battlefield.

With a thud upon landing on the ground, dust rises all around, then she strikes down with a blade, a faint roar of a tiger rises in the wind.

Not being of the utmost assault level doesn’t mean her attacking ability is weak. Being acknowledged in the top three of supernovas, it’s not easily countered by anyone.

The Polar Alliance Bishop is startled, not expecting such a formidable character to suddenly come from the sky. He hurriedly retreats, attempting to create distance, but Cheng Mingyue doesn’t let him go, stepping forward and pursuing.

The Bishop knows her, aware she can switch among three modes, but he didn’t expect her close combat mode to be so strong.

He clasps hands, summoning a Light-Forged Shackles, swinging arms to strike.

This apparatus isn’t equipment but a skill. Summoned, each strike carries dispersing Power of Holy Light.

Boom!!

The weapon thunders on the ground, raising dust like a substantial explosion.

The Bishop harbors uncertainty, feeling no powerful recoil in hand, unsure whether he’s hit the target.

But he soon confirms his attack didn’t work, Cheng Mingyue emerges from another direction, stabbing out with her short knife, another fierce roar.

Boom!!

The Light-Forged Shackles this time hit squarely, achieving a draw, providing the Bishop considerable reassurance.

Looks like she can’t deal with me.

He relaxes significantly, gaining advantage with the summoned weapon in such circumstances thanks to its durability.

However, at this very moment, he suddenly feels weighed down, several semi-transparent shackles clasp his limbs. These inconspicuous small items seem to burden him heavily, making movement hard.

Following close behind, amidst the firelight of the previous clash, Cheng Mingyue rushes forth, braving the explosion damage, getting closer, swinging down.

This woman’s truly ruthless.

The Bishop’s thoughts swirling rapidly, he possesses a life-saving item but hasn’t used it, knowing that as long as the limb seals exist, it can only delay his time to death, rendering the item wasted.

Roar!!

In the final tiger’s roar, the Bishop dies on the spot.

Cheng Mingyue feels no surprise at her victory. To expedite the battle, she even used her ultimate skill, sealing the ability with considerable cooldown time.

She inspects her injuries, finding them not severe, yet plans to retreat for treatment, promptly running back to her camp. But upon lifting her gaze, she finds several comrades staring at her in horror.

At almost the same moment, perhaps half a second earlier, she feels the hair on her back stand, a sense of danger approaching from the side.

Time seems to slow, she lifts her eyes, seeing a burly figure charging from the side, muscles twisted and grotesque, eyes gleaming with a vicious light after it’s gone berserk and turned into Simon.

He wields half a corpse, appearing to have just torn apart a Polar Alliance Extraordinary.

Cheng Mingyue feels she’s doomed soon but doesn’t give up easily. In the first and final moment, she switches to control mode and casts a barrier. This skill can lock enemies’ movement space and serve as a shield in specific situations.

Yet before Simon’s full-speed charge, the formidable barrier seems like mere glass, failing to slow his advance at all.

Crash!

The barrier shatters, Simon closes in with a punch.

Boom!!!

The crowd only witnesses Cheng Mingyue’s figure flying backward, crashing into the mountain wall behind. Under surprise assault, she couldn’t even parry a strike.

"Retreat."

Ho Huangzun immediately "betrays" the fate-unknown Cheng Mingyue, being the second highest rank on site, he must think of the bigger picture.

Simon totally disregards them, only intent on ensuring Cheng Mingyue’s demise, the critical task.

He resumes heavy footsteps, needing a mere instant to catch up, but before reaching full speed, he abruptly halts.

Rumble roar—

The ground gently trembles, he feels an intense sense of danger locking onto him.

Turning back, golden lightning transforms into warhorses, coming from afar. Clearly solitary but exuding the grandeur of legions.

Simon finds it interesting, having received similar threats only from Vons and Guan Gui in the Secret Realm battlefield, marking this as an unprecedented occurrence.

He gives up the thought of catching up with Cheng Mingyue to deal a final blow, thinking that prolonging without a response may lead to risking his life.
