Chapter 475: The Initial Furnace! The most outrageous episode yet! |
Clang!
The Lord of Ashes in his hand held the spiral sword, draped in magnificent and domineering flames, swinging it down in a powerful chop!
The heat waves billowed, the force splitting Mount Hua, even making the Ashen One before him momentarily forget to breathe, forget to defend!
Kong——!!!
"Rua——so fierce! What a beast! I'm shocked!"
The kobold Quinn, wielding a fully upgraded dark sword, was immediately slammed to the ground by a single slash!
His health directly dropped by one-third!
So vicious!
You need to know, Quinn's health pool wasn't low anymore after stat allocation, plus he had used an ember earlier, making his health bar quite respectable.
Enough to show how high the damage of this 'Lords of Ashes Incarnate' truly was!
Hurriedly rolling up from the ground, Quinn seized the moment and rushed forward with a four-hit combo!
However, the BOSS didn't even attempt to dodge this attack from the Ashen One, instead swinging the straight sword in his hand!
Whoosh——!!!
Flames soared into the air!
The scattered sparks reflected in Quinn's shocked pupils—
He stared in amazement as the straight sword in the BOSS's hand transformed at this moment into a flaming spear!
"Ah???"
Quinn made the sound of a Golden Wind player:
"Hey—wait! Wait—!"
Thump!——!
...
"Damn it——!"
Ayin rolled on the ground for three full circles before stopping in a faceplant position:
"No martial virtue! How dare you suddenly pull out a spear! Is this something a human would do?"
Too ridiculous!
You need to know, after several exchanges and struggles, he had just mastered the attack range of the Lords of Ashes Incarnate and was getting into the groove!
But who would have thought!
This bastard had no martial virtue, instantly transforming the sword into a spear, giving him the seven-in-seven-out treatment!
Thankfully Old Thief still had some conscience and didn't set the initial motion-sensing pain feedback too high, otherwise that spear strike from behind just now...
Unimaginable, folks.
While exclaiming in shock, Ayin also hastily did two rolls, creating some distance and chugging two Estus Flasks.
Fortunately, after exploring through the entire game, plus collecting everything through searching for tips and guides when he wasn't streaming, his Estus Flask was now fully upgraded, with one chug quickly restoring a large amount of status.
"Damn your grandma,"
Rallying his spirits, Ayin spotted an opening in the Lords of Ashes Incarnate's flaming spear attacks and rushed forward to deliver two slashes:
"Today I'm fighting you to the death——!"
However!
Before his words even finished!
With a whooshing sound!
The weapon of the Lords of Ashes Incarnate transformed once again!
The flaming spiral spear suddenly shortened, held in the Lords of Ashes Incarnate's hand, then ice-blue crystals gathered above its head!
Swish swish swish swish——
Followed by thump thump thump thump!!!
......
Soul Spear!
Magic?!
The Soul Spear barrage, like a machine gun, closely pursued Liu Liu who was holding his greatsword while fleeing with his head covered!
"Ahhh——hahahahaha——oh my god——!!!"
Today Golden Wind players were definitely getting their fill of "ah" sounds.
Super transformation show, is it?
Bro, are you performing magic tricks?
Liu Liu screamed uncontrollably in the livestream chat.
My Fran Greatsword's startup is already slow, and seeing your spiral spear's attack interval isn't short either, I thought I could finally get close and give you some street dance moves.
But then your spear turns into a staff?
Don't underestimate the Soul Spear barrage's small size, but Liu Liu knew well—according to the Lords of Ashes Incarnate's strength, if he took five hits head-on, even if he didn't die, it definitely wouldn't be something one Estus Flask could fix!
"Don't panic! Don't panic Shi Liuliu! Steady!"
Feeling like he had escaped the Lords of Ashes Incarnate's attack range, Liu Liu panted heavily while cheering himself on:
"You can do this! We have plenty of time! Wait for the right moment, wait for him..."
While speaking, Liu Liu looked back.
And the next second, his voice caught in his throat.
Because at this moment, he saw the spiral staff in the Lords of Ashes Incarnate's hand suddenly massively increase in size, instantly transforming into a gigantic Void Sword shimmering with blazing flames!
Lords of Ashes version Soul Greatsword!
Boom——!!!
A sweeping sword slash!
The violent heat waves instantly scorched the ash-covered arena into a raging inferno, the intense shockwave struck with unstoppable force!
Wherever it passed, scorched earth erupted, broken weapons and armor instantly turned into molten iron as if heavenly flames were melting everything, destruction arriving!
Thump—boom——!!!
The viewers were stunned——!
"Ah???"
The most ridiculous episode
"What? This? Ah——?"
I really like this phrase from Golden Wind players
What the fuck is too ridiculous! This Lords of Ashes Incarnate is too fierce! Although the size isn't that big, the aggression and move variety are too strong!
I think the main issue is the psychological pressure, fire itself is terrifying, plus all the various transformations, it's literally a motion-sensing pod nightmare
Indeed, this Soul Greatsword is too scary
"Feels like sis is completely burned out"
"My little Qin——!!!"
Little Qin got completely wrecked by Soul Spear
Boss is dreaming back to first entering Dark Souls, rolling around blindly and directly rolling to death...
"Sweating bullets now, little brother?
"Hahahahahaha..."
...
For a moment, the viewer audience was shouting with excitement, while the streamers were lamenting continuously, sweating profusely!
Actually, is this final BOSS difficult?
Difficult, but not completely difficult.
Even from a certain perspective, the flashiness of the Lords of Ashes Incarnate exceeds its difficulty level.
But don't forget!
This is the motion-sensing pod.
In this work without third-person perspective, where all flames and destruction require you to experience them firsthand and face directly, the psychological attack power of "flashiness" is far higher than the console experience!
On console, when you see the Lords of Ashes transforming into a mage charging Soul Greatsword, you can clearly judge that you need to close in for attack at this moment.
But in the motion-sensing pod, facing heat waves that can distort air and a molten greatsword twice your size, just taking one step forward against the heat waves requires enduring huge psychological pressure, let alone actively closing in!
Animals fear fire, this is instinctive, and humans are no exception.
Moreover——!
...
"Take my Whirlwind Lightning Slash! Motherfucker mother chicken!"
Buzz—buzz——!
Spinning the Exile Greatsword in his hand, Pew gave the Lords of Ashes Incarnate another set of windmill weapon art, then leaned on the greatsword panting.
So useful!
No wonder it's the highly recommended T1-level greatsword for mid-late game.
Although compared to other long weapons, the Exile Greatsword's attack range isn't that long, but this spinning windmill weapon art is just too good.
Once you start swinging, you instantly become a reckless brute, with outstanding effectiveness.
Plus Pew himself has decent gaming talent, actually quickly bringing the Lords of Ashes Incarnate to half health.
Looking at the cautiously stepping Lords of Ashes Incarnate, Pew couldn't help but curl his lip.
"Come on! Have you run out of flashy abilities!"
"Damn, it really has to be the Exile Greatsword! The world belongs to brutes!"
While speaking!
Pew, with recovered stamina, grabbed the greatsword and charged forward again, preparing to repeat the same trick, performing the windmill once more.
But at this moment!
Suddenly, he saw the Lords of Ashes Incarnate make a nimble backstep!
Immediately after, the staff in its hand suddenly swung!
Whoosh——!!!
Flames rose, the weapon in the Lords of Ashes Incarnate's hand transformed once again!
Previously, the boss's spiral sword could transform into three states:
Regular straight sword, magic-casting staff, and the powerfully fierce spiral spear with imposing aura weapon art.
But this time, when the Lords of Ashes Incarnate jumped back again,
The weapon appearing in its hand became the relatively niche curved sword from the first playthrough!
The burning spiral curved sword looked incredibly sharp, light and eerie.
Even more ridiculous, the next moment, Pew watched as the Lords of Ashes Incarnate raised its left hand, then swung its arm, slapping a pyromancy on itself!
Instantly, red light shone brightly all over its body!
"What—the—fuck——?!"
Pew was shocked!
"Power Within? This bastard can even buff himself? You sour radish don't—eat!!!"
Correct!
What the Lords of Ashes Incarnate slapped on itself was indeed Power Within!
This pyromancy can increase damage by forty percent for a short time, but health drains by one percent per second.
You could say this is a super powerful ability, prepared specifically for players pursuing ultimate damage.
But for ordinary players, this thing is a bit scary.
Forty percent damage increase is certainly awesome, but bleeding from the eyes is equally terrifying.
After all, health represents error tolerance, once health loss becomes significant, error tolerance will continuously decrease, finally with just one small mistake you get directly taken out, overall seeming somewhat not worth the loss.
However!
The Lords of Ashes Incarnate is after all the Lords of Ashes Incarnate.
"Hey! No! Damn! Saaaaaaaaaaam——"
Pew widened his eyes, staring intently at the Lords of Ashes Incarnate's health bar with a mournful cry:
"I fucking report! Your Lords of Ashes Incarnate is cheating! He uses Power Within without losing health! Damn! He's health locking!"
However!
Before Pew's voice could get a response from Sam.
The next moment, he saw the Lords of Ashes Incarnate float gracefully over, like a Chinese martial arts master possessing Light Footsteps, lightly landing right in front of Pew!
Pew holding the Exile Greatsword now felt like a stupid brute:
"My damn..."
Whoosh whoosh——!
Whoosh——!
Whoosh whoosh whoosh——!
Whoosh whoosh——!!!
The curved sword was elegant, every slash burning with flames!
The Lords of Ashes transformed into curved sword, practically applied 'delayed attack method' to the extreme!
Pew really looked like a slow-reacting fool, rolling once getting slashed once, rolling twice getting slashed twice, his rolling timing always at the exact moment of the Lords of Ashes Incarnate's recovery frames, standing up only to get slashed right in the face.
He was completely slashed numb.
The viewers were going crazy laughing—
"Slashing addiction acting up?"
Hahahahahahahaha damn, goddamn slashing addiction acting up
The one with slashing addiction acting up is the Lords of Ashes Incarnate, Pew is the one getting slashed...
'Laughing till I puke'
'Better to receive well than fight well indeed'
'Indeed, didn't catch any hot meals, ate all the shit'
Stand up get slashed, stand up get slashed, won't slash until you finish rolling, I suspect the Lords of Ashes Incarnate is reading inputs...
This damn fight going on, almost turning into charcoal-grilled Pew
'Too entertaining'
'He understands entertainment value'
'Don't awkwardly criticize, even if you wanted to receive you might not receive this accurately'
'Killing...and still breaking the heart?!'
Hahahahahaha damn...
