As the countdown to the duel ended, Brute Spear approached Shifeng, taking one step at a time. He did not seem to think that this was a competition at all.
As expected of a quest that can trigger the appearance of a Demon God. He's become a Baron Demon so quickly. Shifeng unsheathed Killing Ray and the Abyssal Blade as he watched Brute Spear approach, his expression turning serious.
Even after ten years had passed, Titled Demons were still extremely rare. The majority of Demon players stopped at High Demons. If they wished to progress further, they needed the acknowledgment of a superior Demon or a Demon God. Only then would they be willing to share a portion of their strength.
Be it a superior Demon or a Demon God, the amount of strength they could receive was limited.
There was a limit to the amount of power these two could bestow. Hence, there were very few Demon players who could be enfeoffed.
Currently, Brute Spear was Level 45, and he had over 240,000 HP. On the other hand, even after reaching Level 50, Shi Feng only had 42,000 HP. There was nearly a sixfold difference …
Not to mention, a Titled Demon's Defense and Magic Resistance were even higher than a High Demon's. Even an ordinary Tier 2 expert would find it difficult to kill Brute Spear. Not to mention, there was not a single Tier 2 player in God's Domain right now.
When Brute Spear was less than 12 yards away, Shifeng abruptly stomped on the ground, leaving behind an afterimage as he dashed towards Brute Spear.
"So fast!"
The five members of the Flower of Seven Sins were astonished when they saw Shifeng appear before Brute Spear in the blink of an eye.
Shi Feng was definitely the fastest Swordsman they had ever seen. He had crossed 12 yards in the blink of an eye. With such speed, even they would most likely get hit if they were not careful.
Meanwhile, Shifeng's movements and judgment were considerably sharp.
A Berserker who used a spear had a slightly wider attack range than a Berserker who used a greatsword, saber, or battle axe. The spear's attack range was slightly wider. The spear's attack range was roughly two yards longer than other weapons. The spear's attack range was four to eight yards. On the other hand, a Swordsman's attack range was one to three yards. Although a Swordsman's Sword Aura could hit an enemy within five yards, if the enemy was within four or five yards, they could easily dodge the attack.
An inch longer, an inch stronger.
The extra 2 yards of attack range was the difference between life and death.
If he wanted to suppress his opponent, the best way to achieve victory was to get within one to three yards of the spear-wielding player. That way, the spear-wielding player would not be able to exert their advantage.
On the other hand, if the Shifeng waited for Brute Spear to walk over step by step, Brute Spear would've already begun attacking before he even entered the Shifeng's attack range. This was a considerably disadvantageous situation for the Shifeng.
Therefore, launching a quick attack was definitely a wise decision.
"What a quick reaction. Too bad you're up against me!"
Although Brute Spear was surprised by the Shifeng's speed and judgment, he was able to see them clearly. Moreover, due to his improved physique, his grasp of his surroundings was much stronger than before. Now, his range of vision was over 20 yards. The instant the Shifeng prepared to take action, he already knew what the Shifeng intended to do.
Whirlwind Slash!
Brute Spear had long since prepared for this. He swept the crimson spear in his hand horizontally, dealing severe damage to all enemies within a 10-yard radius.
Brute Spear, who possessed Demonic Power, swung his spear so quickly that even the spear's shaft could not be seen. At this moment, Shifeng was still six yards away from Brute Spear. By the time Shifeng's attack reached Brute Spear, the Berserker's spear would've long since struck Shifeng.
Compared to greatswords, sabers, and battle axes, the spear was slightly weaker in Strength. However, it was much faster.
Peng!
When the spear and sword collided, Shifeng was forced back several steps.
What a high Skill Completion Rate! Shifeng could not help his surprise when he saw Brute Spear's unmoving body.
In terms of Strength, he should've surpassed Brute Spear after his transformation. After all, there was a five-level difference between them. Moreover, there was also a massive difference in weapons and equipment. Yet, Brute Spear had still been forced back.
The only explanation for this was Skill Completion Rate. When a player's Skill Completion Rate reached an extremely high level, the Skill they used would have some additional effects.
When a Berserker's Whirlwind Slash reached a Completion Rate of 99% or above, aside from increasing its destructive power, it would also have a 100% knockback effect.
A Skill Completion Rate of 99%!
This Completion Rate was something Shi Feng could only occasionally achieve when he was in an excellent state.
Yet, Brute Spear could casually use such a Completion Rate …
So, this is a hidden ability of a Baron Demon?
Shifeng did not think that Brute Spear had used such a Completion Rate by chance. After all, Brute Spear had only recently become a Baron Demon. After transforming, his various Attributes would've received a significant boost. It would've been very difficult for him to immediately control this power. He would've needed time to adapt to it, yet Brute Spear had yet to do so. The only explanation for this was the hidden ability of a Baron Demon.
After all, Shifeng had never fought against a Baron Demon in the past. Or to put it in another way, he wasn't qualified to do so. He only knew some general information about Demons. As for the hidden ability of a Baron Demon, nobody would be foolish enough to reveal it.
"It's no wonder why Chen Xu said you were amazing. It turns out that your Strength Attribute is so high." Brute Spear could not help but look at Xiang Shifeng when he saw his trembling spear. His fondness for the Angry Tyrant Gauntlets on Shifeng's wrist grew.
After transforming into a Demon, his Strength Attribute was actually weaker than Shifeng's. This was practically impossible. The only possibility was Shifeng's weapons and equipment.
After saying so, Brute Spear used Charge on Shifeng, the spear in his hand stabbing at Xiang Shifeng's heart.
After using Charge, Brute Spear moved like a meteor. Not only was his speed extremely fast, but his attack also contained a powerful aura, suppressing Shifeng.
This suppression did not come from Brute Spear himself. Instead, it was a Deterrence effect that would only activate when Charge had reached a Completion Rate of 99% or above. When activated, the Deterrence effect would reduce the opponent's reaction speed by 20% and Movement and Attack Speed by 40% for one second.
When Brute Spear was less than six yards away from Shifeng, the crimson spear in Brute Spear's hand suddenly transformed into a streak of crimson light. Most of the spear could not be seen with the naked eye. One could barely make out a streak of crimson light extending outwards.
"Brute Spear is finally using his specialty," an Assassin familiar with Brute Spear said, chuckling.
This move was Brute Spear's famous fusion combat technique in the Flower of Seven Sins. It was a combat technique that fused a combat technique with a system Skill.
In the blink of an eye!
Brute Spear's Charge was already fast enough. Moreover, after activating Charge, Brute Spear channeled the strength of his muscles, allowing his spear to gain another burst of speed. His speed was so fast that it was impossible to block or dodge.
Peng!
At the critical moment, Shifeng used Parry.
When the crimson spear collided with his greatsword, Shifeng instantly felt his hands go numb. He was also forced to retreat by six steps before he could stabilize his body.
"He blocked even that?" Brute Spear was astonished. "Just how high is his Agility Attribute?"
He had executed In the blink of an eye, Brute Spear's Charge had suppressed Shifeng. In addition, he had a complete set of moves. Logically, he should not have been able to use Parry.
"Since that is the case, let's see if your reaction speed is faster, or if my Attack Speed is faster!"
Saying so, Brute Spear brandished his spear. The wings on his back flapped, and he suddenly floated in the air. Brute Spear then split into three figures, charging at Shifeng from three different directions.
