Clang!
The familiar dull impact rang out again. Xi'en felt as though he had slammed into a mountain, and was knocked back more than ten meters.
The Death Knight had immense strength and had activated Legion Charge. Pitting a skill against Xi'en's ordinary charge naturally gave him a huge advantage.
Xi'en sensed trouble. He had seen through Bai Xiaowen's tactics.
The Corpse Monster that had just been switched out charged toward another part of the battlefield. But like Xi'en, that monster had a skill that restored its Life Value whenever it killed an enemy! Xi'en could see Fatty's Life Value slowly recovering even in the thick of battle. It was downright shameless.
As for the Armored Dire Wolf that had first held Xi'en off, it was circling his fight with the Death Knight, prowling with obvious intent. It was clearly waiting until it had recovered enough to take another turn.
In other words, the human prophet Dio planned to use these three troublesome summoned creatures to tie down Xi'en, a lord!
As a lord with a Mental Specialty, the human prophet Dio could support his allies simply by activating his Wisdom Aura. But Xi'en was a tank lord specializing in constitution. If he could not enter the fray and pin down his opponents on the front line, his impact on the battle would diminish sharply!
Xi'en swept his gaze over the rest of the battlefield.
The Snakefolk warriors were elite fighters, but under the combined restrictions of Wisdom Aura and Soul Melody, they were steadily losing ground. The human prophet Dio's younger sister Charlotte was formidable too. With her ghostlike speed and relentless twin-sword attacks, she could keep up a ferocious assault!
Xi'en's heart sank. At this rate, not only would they fail to capture the human prophet, they might
