“This should be Lu Ran’s first time using Touch of the Undead on such a massive scale, right? The effect is absolutely explosive!” Yu Qingcang watched from atop the city wall with great interest.
“Yeah, you could say he’s getting familiar with national war ahead of time. When the national war comes, the area he needs to control will be even larger.” Liu Xinxin nodded.
As for Ye Hongyi and Lei Tai.
They were watching with pure excitement.
Right now, probably only these few people in the entire imperial capital were enjoying the show the most.
Everyone else was still caught between the terror of the beast siege and the shock of Lu Ran’s Touch of the Undead.
Beside them.
Stood Nanaose.
At this moment, Nanaose was completely stunned.
She had thought that at her level of status and standing, nothing could shock her or make her feel awe toward any class anymore.
Even hidden classes didn’t matter to her.
After all, the level gap was right there.
She was the Eagle Sauce’s number one Onmyoji. No matter how powerful the rising stars of other hidden classes were, she wouldn’t give them a second glance.
But Lu Ran had shocked her time and time again.
Even now.
The range of this Touch of the Undead left her utterly dumbfounded!
“Lu Ran’s Touch of the Undead can actually cover such an enormous area? That’s… at least dozens of kilometers, right?” Nanaose asked in astonishment.
Lei Tai glanced at her, let out a cold snort, and ignored her.
That was understandable. As the guild master of the War Banner National Guard, Lei Tai harbored the deepest hatred for the little island nation.
Ye Hongyi merely shrugged and said nothing.
Only Liu Xinxin.
She gave Nanaose a faint look and said, “You’ve already been completely controlled by Lu Ran, so there’s no harm in telling you. Lu Ran’s skill coverage range is now at least a thousand kilometers. And you should know that the Sea-Calming Trident allows Lu Ran to freely shrink his skill range as he pleases.”
Nanaose was stunned, her cherry lips parting in shock.
A thousand kilometers!
Lu Ran’s Touch of the Undead could cover at least a thousand kilometers!
What did that even mean?
As the Sakura nation’s number one Onmyoji, Nanaose immediately understood.
National war!
During national war, Lu Ran could control a range of over a thousand kilometers!
No, wait — what Liu Xinxin said was Lu Ran’s skill coverage range, not just Touch of the Undead’s coverage range!
Didn’t that mean that not only Touch of the Undead, but all of Lu Ran’s skills had a coverage range of over a thousand kilometers?!!
And besides.
How big was the Sakura nation’s territory anyway?
A few casual skills from Lu Ran could cover the entire Sakura nation!
Just as she was thinking this.
Nanaose seemed to notice something else and her body trembled. She said in shock, “The control duration of Touch of the Undead — I remember it’s only a few seconds? But this timing… that’s not right.”
It really wasn’t right.
It had already been twenty or thirty seconds since the beast siege was bound in place by Touch of the Undead!
“Of course it’s not right. I don’t know if you’ve never seen it or just forgot, but Lu Ran’s skill cooldown is zero. In other words, his skills have no cooldown time.” Liu Xinxin continued.
Gulp~
Nanaose swallowed hard.
She knew Liu Xinxin couldn’t be lying to her. Though it was hard to believe, what she was seeing with her own eyes was indeed true!
This also made Nanaose’s resolve to change her allegiance surge to its absolute peak in this moment!
Unlimited skill casting, unlimited control, the ability to fly — just these few abilities alone.
Were enough for Lu Ran to single-handedly massacre the entire Sakura nation!
Without needing any help!
No — not just Sakura. Any country in the world, as long as Lu Ran willed it, could be wiped out!
This also made Nanaose understand why Lu Ran could charge all the way to the seventieth floor of the Endless Tower in one go!
Because no BOSS could even touch Lu Ran. They were all controlled in place, waiting to die!
What a terrifying ability!
Was this even human anymore?
And this scene also drew the attention of every single player.
Atop the entire imperial capital’s city walls, countless people were shocked, unable to believe what they were seeing.
“A Touch of the Undead of this enormous range — I thought it could only buy us a few seconds at most, completely useless. But…”
“I thought the same. Is this even human anymore?”
“Unlimited control?”
“No, no, this isn’t unlimited control. It’s Lu Ran continuously stacking Touch of the Undead!”
“Does his skill really have no cooldown?”
“It’s been almost a minute now, hasn’t it?”
“Holy crap, he can control them indefinitely? Then they’re all just sitting ducks! Ranged classes, let’s go!”
“Go my ass. There are plenty of ranged-attacking monsters in that horde too. You can hit them, but can they not hit you?”
“Yeah, keep dreaming.”
“But controlling them forever isn’t a solution either. Are we supposed to just keep them controlled for hours until the monster siege ends?”
…
Speculation and discussion continued.
And Lu Ran, of course, wasn’t doing this to show off or deliberately stall for time.
While maintaining control, his eyes kept sweeping across the monster horde.
The dark-type monsters within were all taken in — every single one controlled by a single thought from Lu Ran.
This was also the first time Lu Ran had controlled such a large area, and in a circular pattern no less, so it took quite a bit of time.
At this moment.
Lu Ran once again looked around, scanning the perimeter, confirming that everything was more or less under control.
Only then did he nod.
But he didn’t rush to command these monsters to kill each other. He didn’t give them any orders.
Instead, he raised the Sea-Calming Trident in his hand.
In an instant, within the surrounding monster horde, dense white bones continuously formed, then floated into the air, spinning like lawnmowers.
Grinding against each other, as if to shred everything within!
“Bone Storm!” Someone shouted, recognizing it at first glance.
Instantly.
Everyone fixed their eyes on the monster horde outside.
“It really is Bone Storm!”
“Just like Touch of the Undead, a Bone Storm covering the entire monster horde!”
“I’m speechless. This is what you call a storm. Mine is at best a localized twitch.”
“Haha… localized twitch, I’m dying.”
“I’m numb, numb. We can survive this wave!”
“Who could possibly withstand this? Haha…”
“Lu Ran bro really is invincible!”
“You guys said earlier that Lu Ran participated in the Hundred Cities League? With this level of power, going to the Hundred Cities League?”
“Isn’t that just bullying honest… no, bullying little kids?”
…
On the city wall, Yu Qingcang and the others watched with great relish.
Nanaose gazed at the Bone Storm for a while, finally confirming what Liu Xinxin had said.
She turned and looked up at the boy in the sky, much younger than herself.
Lu Ran, with his massive wings vibrating, was so dazzling in this moment!
As if he were no longer human, but a god or Buddha descended upon the world!
Of course.
Lu Ran wasn’t just stacking Bone Storm and Touch of the Undead.
In between, seizing the gap, he sent out a single thought command.
The monsters under Lu Ran’s control began killing each other!
Before long.
When the notification for gaining experience from killing monsters rang out, Lu Ran’s lips curved upward slightly.
The experience harvest had begun!
And he was getting closer and closer to summoning the Abyssal Bone Dragon!
