Because Death Knight Anus had only summoned Undead creatures of the Dark Attribute, Nie Yan didn't have much time left. With the terrifying effects of Rui's Book of Death, in addition to Rui's strong defense, the damage these children could do to him was almost negligible. However, the Undead that carried poison, bleeding, and other disgusting statuses gave Chu Rui a headache. If it was under normal circumstances, this amount of damage would be negligible. However, Rui's current situation was not optimistic. Many little drops make a mickle. Even if the direct damage was low, but with so many people around him, he would not be able to hold on for long. Most importantly, he still had to fight against the powerful Boss Death Knight Anus.
Even an idiot would know that it wasn't wise to let a Thief fight against a powerful Knight Boss. However, Chu Rui had no choice but to act like an idiot. It hadn't been easy for him to reach Death Knight Anus. If he broke out of the encirclement, it would be impossible for him to return. Although the Undead creatures summoned by Death Knight Anus greatly restricted Chu Rui and limited Chu Rui's greatest asset, speed, they also restricted him. Even though a Knight's need for positioning was definitely not as important as a Thief's, Rui was a Thief who could both defend and attack, and had extremely sharp attacks. Nie Yan was completely surrounded. Facing Death Knight Anus head-on, coupled with his powerful health regeneration and lifesteal abilities, as well as the support of potions, it was hard to tell who would emerge victorious. If Death Knight Anus was at his peak, Chu Rui might have been a bit apprehensive. However, Death Knight Anus' stats had been reduced by 50%. Coupled with the abnormal weakening effects of the Book of Death, Chu Rui was no longer afraid.
No more skills? Then I'll just attack!
No matter what skill it was, no matter how proficient a player was in controlling the skill, there was always a slight delay that couldn't be negated. Back when Chu Rui was still an ordinary Thief and hadn't specialized into a Phantom Thief, his skills only had a delay of a few tenths of a second. Moreover, his chaining of skills was also extremely fast, taking less than a second. This kind of speed and reaction time was simply unparalleled. However, it still took time. However, normal slashes were different. Slash after slash, slash after slash, there was no obstruction at all. Skills needed to be charged up or performed special actions, so there would be a slight delay. However, normal attacks would not have such a delay. Actually, after reaching a certain realm, a normal attack would deal more damage than a skill in a limited amount of time.
Chu Rui was currently at his wit's end, so there was no need for him to use those large-scale damage skills. Although the Phantom Thief's skills had short cooldowns, they still had cooldowns. As a result, Chu Rui had no choice but to attack. It had already been a long time since he had attacked so crazily. Normally, he would just use a set of skills. Even if the burst of power didn't kill the enemy, it would at least leave them half-dead. Now, he was using the most primitive attacks. Slash after slash, the incomparably smooth and confident slash after slash left Chu Rui excited.
As long as the cooldown of the potion was over, he would drink it. Chu Rui didn't care about the attacks of the surrounding Undead. Under the effects of the Book of Death, these weak summons were even more miserable. The total damage they dealt to Chu Rui didn't exceed 1,000. Although Chu Rui's two weakening skills didn't deal any damage to these invincible Undead, they were still effective. They reduced all their stats by 50%. Not to mention their defense, at the very least, their attack power had been severely reduced. Their damage wasn't as great as before.
Inside the Domain of Death, the Death Knight Anus was incomparably savage. He frantically swung his greatsword, clashing head-on with Chu Rui. A Thief fighting a Knight face-to-face was simply courting death. Chu Rui had no choice but to brace himself. Fortunately, his Forbidden Wings and Wind God's Boots were extremely powerful. The Shadow Cloak also showed its effects, allowing him to dodge extremely quickly. Adding on the suppression of the Book of Death, the powerful recovery of the Blue Dragon Scale and Starmoon Necklace, the lifesteal of the Dragonslaying Dagger, and the crazy consumption of potions, even if his health was constantly dropping and rising, he was still able to stand.
"Ding!" The Death Knight has activated the Domain of Death. Reviving and recovering 10% of his HP and MP!
Chu Rui was panting heavily. Seeing the Death Knight Anus he had killed devouring ten more summons and reviving, he couldn't help but fiercely grip his dagger and slash at him once more.
Thieves were graceful and carefree. They would kill in one hit and then flee thousands of miles away. It was a bit of a "brush off your clothes when you're done, hide your achievements and fame" style. Letting Chu Rui fight in a roundabout way was as simple as eating and drinking. However, letting him fight head-on, especially against a Knight with such astonishing strength, was truly too strenuous. After just one round, he was already panting. This kind of clash of pure strength was really not something he could afford to suffer.
"Dance of the Wind God!"
Facing the resurrected Death Knight Anus, Chu Rui fiercely gritted his teeth and activated the second speed-increasing skill of the Wind God's Boots — Dance of the Wind God.
Although Chu Rui attached great importance to Death Knight Anus, it definitely wasn't to the point where he would go all out to deal with him. One couldn't just look at what was in front of them. The reason why Chu Rui had saved those powerful ultimate skills was that, firstly, it really wasn't suitable to use those super AOE skills (AoE). After all, the only one he could deal damage to was Death Knight Anus. Secondly, he was preparing to face the next Boss later on. If he used all his skills here, how would he face the next Boss? Although the system was a scam, it wouldn't mess up the order of the Bosses. The Bosses later on were definitely stronger than the Death Knight. If he used up all his skills against Death Knight Anus, he wouldn't be able to play the next Boss.
Dance of the Wind God was the signature skill of the Legendary-ranked Wind God's Boots. After activating it, for one minute, physical and magical attacks would be completely nullified. Not only that, but it also increased the user's speed by 200%. This wasn't very useful to Chu Rui, who was currently surrounded and unable to move. However, the 100% increase in Attack Speed was undoubtedly a timely buff for Chu Rui. With this buff, even if Chu Rui had other skills, he wouldn't use them now. Chu Rui's Attack Speed was already very high to begin with. After the buff, he was confident that he could swing at least five daggers in a second. That would be ten daggers in two hands. Ten attacks per second. Even if they were normal attacks, Death Knight Anus definitely wouldn't be able to take it.
