When the Ghost Swordsman Elfa returned to the battlefield once again, the entire battlefield's atmosphere instantly became tense.
Because, the one who came wasn't just Elfa alone.
Behind him, the strongest army from the Beacon Nation also arrived at the battlefield.
This elite army from the Beacon Nation was known as the [Demon Army].
All professionals who reached level 500 full level, officially stepping into the Tier 9 peak, would automatically join this army.
While enjoying a monthly salary of ten thousand, they would undergo a total of eight hours of high-intensity training every day, both online and offline.
Because of this, every member of this army was a top-tier professional powerhouse, one in ten thousand.
Whether it was physical strength or consciousness strength, they were absolutely incomparable to ordinary Tier 9 professionals.
This Demon Army once achieved a glorious battle record for the Beacon Nation: using only a force of one hundred thousand, they annihilated a nation of one million professionals.
They killed people like cutting grass, hence were called "Demons".
When this Demon Army arrived at the battlefield, professionals from all the major Nations at the scene began to panic.
Fortunately, Zhang Yue returned almost at the same time as Elfa.
Thus, the two confronted each other once again.
"I guessed that you have a damage reflection ability, but unfortunately, I didn't guess that what you have… is a kill-reflection ability."
Looking at Elfa, Zhang Yue said, "So, want to try again?"
In Elfa's eyes, an endless killing intent suddenly surged.
Through the last match, it allowed Elfa to understand: if the necromancer in front of him wasn't dealt with before he developed, then in the near future, he would definitely become his most formidable enemy.
Although he didn't know clearly what grade the necromancer profession was.
But Elfa had a strong premonition: if the opponent was the same as himself, both at the level 500 Tier 9 level, he might really not be his opponent.
"You're wrong," Elfa said to Zhang Yue, "The same trick cannot be effective twice on the same person."
As Elfa's voice just fell, behind him, Inoue Amano and Kloster immediately stepped forward.
Obviously, they both wanted to take Elfa's place to make a move, seemingly intending to use a challenge format to replace Zhang Yue.
After all, Zhang Yue's level strength was fixed at just over 100, let alone 500-level Tier 9, even any professional above level 200 could easily kill Zhang Yue.
However, in the next moment, Zhang Yue suddenly raised a scroll.
He shook the scroll in his hand and said lightly, "Who wants to try it?"
Death Mark.
When seeing that what Zhang Yue held in his hand was the Death Mark with a permanent erasure effect, Inoue Amano and Kloster, who had been eager to take Elfa's place and personally finish Zhang Yue, involuntarily stepped back two steps.
They indeed wanted to trade blows with Zhang Yue.
But that was only under the premise that they had a resurrection scroll on hand.
However, the Death Mark could ignore the resurrection scroll's effect, directly causing permanent erasure to the enemy!
Kloster pointed at Zhang Yue and cursed, "You little trash, can't you play fair?"
Zhang Yue, while applying the Death Mark to the staff in his hand, smiled at the people ahead, "So, who wants to play with me?"
Instantly, everyone retreated, even Elfa and Kwon Ji-Hyun dared not make any rash moves.
In this world, there has never been someone who isn't afraid of death.
Especially for those who stand higher and possess more, they fear death even more.
Because once they die, they will lose all their current achievements.
Seeing the elite professional armies of the Cold Nation and Eastern Nation, and even the Demon Army of the Beacon Nation, all being deterred by Zhang Yue alone and not daring to take a step forward, outside the battlefield, another explosion of excitement occurred.
["Damn! Why is this necromancer from Dragon Nation so damn charming? I'm almost falling for him through the screen!"]
["This move is absolutely insane. Whoever touches him dies together, ignores HP and directly counters with a kill effect. It's even nastier than Hell Dragon Knight's reflect!"]
["A newly promoted professional just over level 100, relying on his own power to block off the armies of three nations all at levels 400, 500? This scene deserves to be god-tier!"]
However, what outsiders didn't know was: when Zhang Yue used the Death Mark himself, in the situation where he died and counter-killed the enemy, he couldn't actually trigger the effect of the Death Mark to permanently kill the opponent.
Don't ask why.
Just know that, before the previous PK with Elfa, Zhang Yue had already tested it.
The result proved: the Death Mark did not activate.
Perhaps because the Death Mark's effect was applied to the weapon, but Elfa was counter-killed instead of being directly slain by a spell from Zhang Yue's staff.
It's just that no one noticed at the time that Zhang Yue had used the Death Mark.
And now, no one dared to bet their own life on it.
So this move from Zhang Yue was enough to deter the entire scene.
"Who is willing to sacrifice for the glory of our Great Eastern Nation? The family of the sacrificer will be rewarded with thirty million. And enjoy all privileges within the Eastern Nation for life."
Even though Inoue Amano offered such tempting conditions, not a single person stepped forward.
After all, if you're dead, what's the use of money?
Moreover, someone might think: since you said that, why don't you lead by example?
Shouting for us to die for you?
Our lives aren't lives?
At this moment, Elfa suddenly opened his mouth and said to Zhang Yue, "Maybe you're mistaken. It seems… we don't necessarily have to kill you."
As soon as the words fell, Inoue Amano and Kloster suddenly realized:
"Yeah! Our goal is to destroy the Resurrection God Stone. Since this guy can only trigger a counter-kill when he dies, we just don't touch him."
"Just control him. We don't need to bother with him."
As they spoke, Frost Mage King Kwon Ji-Hyun immediately waved his staff and cast a spell.
Crash—
Around Zhang Yue, an Extreme Ice Domain was summoned, trapping Zhang Yue within and preventing escape.
The pressure from a level 500 Tier 9 mythic Frost Mage King was clearly not something Zhang Yue, a mere level-100+ Tier 4 professional, could withstand.
Immediately after, as Elfa gave the order, behind him, the Demon Army composed of the Beacon Nation's strongest one hundred thousand level-500 Tier 9 professionals, surged forward in grand formation, charging toward the Dragon Nation.
As the world's strongest Demon Army, this army from the Beacon Nation was indeed incredibly fierce.
Together with the armies of the Cold Nation and Eastern Nation, they instantly dealt a devastating blow to the Dragon Nation and its allied countries.
And with the Ghost Swordsman Elfa rejoining the battlefield, Restiev and Wolong's side once again fell into a disadvantage…
[T/N: I came to know, via Patreon, that you can't find the new novels I annouce, in my account. The thing is, WebNovel allows maximum 20 WebNovels to be published by an account. Due to which, I can't post anymore novels through this account. So, I had to create another account(Ambitious_Guy) to continue publishing novels. So, when I am annoucing new novels, you can search them by their name and read it, or just check my other account(Ambitious_Guy). I hope it clarifies.]
