What One Can Endure, Another Cannot

Today's second update: Chapter 784! 2/3!

"Damn, that really packed a punch!"

Xu Kun's mind went blank as he was frozen in place. The impact of that move left him briefly stunned!

When he came to his senses and checked his status, he was horrified to discover that Akali's short combo had wiped out nearly five hundred thousand of his health!

What kind of concept was that?

Akali possessed an SS-tier Shadow Seed, and her damage took the form of true damage. After ignoring all defenses and calculating only the eighty-percent damage reduction from Rock Solid, Xu Kun had still taken nearly five hundred thousand damage!

That meant that without a damage-reduction talent, the base damage of Akali's combo would have reached a staggering 2.5 million!

That was no small damage figure. After all, Xu Kun had withstood most of Akali's attacks himself. Most of that five hundred thousand true damage had come from her final Ionian Fervor!
