If it was at the start, Sheyan wouldn't have paid any attention to it. But after witnessing Lille relying on this shadow to withstand two sniper shots from Jin Ximin, Sheyan naturally didn't dare to be careless with this seemingly harmless shadow. Taking a step back, he stuck close to a tree. His right hand flashed with a distinct metallic glow as he directly blocked.
Of course, compared to Jin Ximin, Sheyan who already had an abundance of close combat experience couldn't possibly be beheaded by a single slash. He believed that Lille wouldn't have such an unrealistic fantasy.
"Clang!" A loud sound rang out! Sparks flew out from Sheyan's wrist, his white knuckles emitted a dull ringing sound from the collision of metal. His entire body shook violently. At this moment, he suddenly understood the fundamental reason why Jin Ximin had entered a state of near death from a single blow!
"Determining … … .your perceptive sense exceeds opponent by 10 points, you can obtain detailed battle information."
"Calculating basic close combat ability bonus."
"Calculating explosive strike suppression bonus."
"You successfully blocked, enemy damage reduced by 15%."
"Enemy's attack theoretically dealt 120 points of damage + 42 points of damage (damage ignores defence, + 7 weapon effect) + 60 points of damage (ability: 'Phantom Doppelganger')"
"Your defence is 22.5 points, damage reduction by 47%."
"Enemy's actual damage dealt to you is: 120 x (1-40%) x (1-47%) = 38 points of damage + 42 points of damage (weapon effect precedence) + 19 points of damage!"
"Your innate ability: 'Endurance' is in effect!"
"Enemy's actual damage dealt to you is: 13 + 17 + 1 = 31 points."
Looking at the slash, the nightmare imprint straightforwardly displayed 13 + 17 + 1 statistics. Sheyan fiercely gritted his teeth, the word 'perverse' emerged from his heart.
Obviously, the additional property of this dark blue grade weapon was definitely 'ignore defence'. Moreover, it was on the same level as' crush ', possessing authority. Therefore, it was able to suppress 40% of contestants' laws!
What was even more wretched was that the shadow clone behind him could also deal half the damage of the main body … … .furthermore, this guy's secondary property was' + 15 strength '. Perhaps he could even crush Jin Ximin! No wonder Lille gave up his daggers and chose this seemingly ordinary but incomparably tyrannical long sword!
With a swing of the blade, four numbers jumped out! Taking into account Lille's high drop rate as an Agility-based player, 4 numbers meant 4 drops! Jin Ximin wasn't like Sheyan who had the ability to suppress the enemy's critical strike rate by 10%! Therefore, to him, as long as there was a critical hit among the four numbers, it was very likely that he would be on the brink of death!
Looking from another perspective, although Jin Ximin had enjoyed the 100 HP bonus from the silver party ability 'Shelter', Makaji's' Flesh Vines' before his death had a cursed ability that temporarily reduced a contestant's maximum HP by 15%. Hence, his death wasn't unjust.
Strictly speaking, even Reef would have a hard time dealing with this long saber, mainly because of its + 7 defence ignore special effect. But at this moment, one could see the might of his innate ability 'Endurance'. Although it had yet to awaken, it was like a final barrier silently protecting his life. A fixed damage reduction of 25 didn't seem high, but relying on its incomparably high precedence, in a battle between early and mid stage contestants, it was an absolute advantage!
"Fortunately, Reef had already informed me that the basic attribute bonus of a Reserve-duty Growth-Hunter is temporary. Only after becoming an official Growth-Hunter, would I be able to obtain the additional bonus of 20 points of basic attributes. If not, this battle would truly be a tough one."
Sheyan calculated in his heart. Observing his opponent's constantly changing expression, Lille raised his saber and scolded.
"Do you think you can stop me with just the defense provided by your equipment? Let me tell you, even if you're wearing an iron tortoise shell, I'll still smash it apart! "
As he spoke, Lille brandished his saber and charged forward once again. A deep blue glint drifted gracefully like a gale, flashing like a sudden shower. Regardless of whether it struck or not, it would instantly fly a thousand miles away. At present, Lille's agility had already broken through 50 points. Advancing and retreating could be described as sudden and sudden, giving off an eerie demonic feeling. Sheyan's consecutive counterattacks were both dodged by him.
Yet when Lille slashed out for the third time, Sheyan finally grasped the pattern of his attacks. At the same time when blood flashed out from his own blade, the accumulated momentum of his right fist heavily smashed into Lille's face!
Lille's assault was also restrained by this punch, as he staggered back 3-4 metres. Instead, he lifted his head after receiving this punch. His eyes were filled with agony, yet contained a hint of understanding. Following that, he laughed out wildly.
"Let me see, 23 points of true damage! Is it because you're not used to beating people up after losing the advantage? Want to crush me? I have a full 26 points of strength, unless you're a Reserve-duty Growth-Hunter, you can't awaken! But if you're a motherf * cking strength type Growth-Hunter, would you watch your own party member die before your eyes? "
Lille had a misunderstanding here, he had always treated Jin Ximin as Sheyan's trusted aide. Because during the previous defensive battle, Reef and Sheyan had saved Jin Ximin several times, and Lille and Uzel had witnessed it all.
Sheyan's expression was solemn, he didn't respond to Lille's provocation, but concentrated on defending and counterattacking. In a flash, he actually consecutively dodged two of Lille's saber strikes, and seized the opportunity to retaliate with two punches! Lille didn't dare to be careless, he immediately suppressed his complacent mood, and concentrated fully on the battle.
Following the gradual familiarity between both parties, every 2-3 strikes of Lille's saber, Sheyan would successfully counter with a punch! Instead, Lille could feel his opponent's breathing becoming heavier, and his movements becoming sluggish. Hence, he was bitterly enduring.
Roughly a kilometre away on the battlefield, Reef and the awakened Mogensha were naturally paying close attention to the battle situation. One had to admit the valiance of a genuine Growth-Hunter. Although Makaji had perished, the flesh vine he left behind was still able to tightly bind Mogensha, causing him to be exceedingly weak, and unable to rely on his own strength to break free. After Jin Ximin's death, the fog he had conjured vanished. Obviously, it was something he concocted, to prevent Reef and Uzel from notifying Sheyan of his sudden disappearance.
Because long distance party communication required a continuous expenditure of utility points, after confirming that Reef and Mogensha were fine, Sheyan had casually shut it off. As for the two who had temporarily lost their battle prowess, although they couldn't see the battle situation, they could still monitor Sheyan's declining HP through the party's shared information.
Yet as the battle continued in a stalemate, all of a sudden, Sheyan's 300 HP suddenly surged to full!
Such a bizarre situation instantly caused Reef to be astonished. He couldn't help but ask with a hoarse voice.
"What's going on?"
Mogensha couldn't help but widen his mouth. After a long while, he replied with difficulty.
"This can only mean one thing. Seaman used that honorary 'High Protein Potassium Injection Dosage'!!"
Reef replied in disbelief.
"But … … .but he obviously still had 300 HP!"
Mogensha similarly widened his thick lips in astonishment, as he asked with uncertainty.
"Could it be a mistake?"
Reef shook his head and pondered.
"That's absolutely impossible! Medicines stored in the realm can only be used with one's thoughts, how could such a mistake occur! Unless … … ….. "
*****
Witnessing Sheyan's body continuously flickering with brilliance, Lille's expression turned solemn. Instead, Sheyan's spirit was invigorated as he charged forward with a ferocious assault. Disregarding everything, he exchanged wounds to suppress Lille with all his might! Lille appeared to be in dire straits, but he continuously left wounds on Sheyan's body.
Suddenly, Sheyan didn't hesitate to expose his chest, allowing Lille to slash him twice. Instead, he cleverly forced Lille into a blind spot formed by the trees. Then, he pulled out 'Ambition' and opened fire! His eyes were scarlet as he roared out.
"Go to hell!"
Instead, Lille abruptly charged forward!
He actually gritted his teeth and forcefully endured the bullet.
Although his face was stained with blood from the bullet, he didn't enter a weakened state. Instead, he raised his long saber and charged through the smoke.
A saber pierced into Sheyan's chest!
Piercing deeply into his chest, the saber's momentum didn't diminish as it pierced into the vegetation behind. Instantly, the vegetation exploded into pieces.
Vital strike!
Explosive strike!
The warm blood and the broken branches and leaves mixed together and danced in the air. The air was immediately filled with a strong smell of blood!
Sheyan groaned as he realized he had been tricked. He hurriedly retreated to dissipate the force!
Yet this saber that carried death, this frenzied saber had already dealt him a heavy blow!
At this moment, Lille's body similarly flickered with the radiance of the honorary 'High Protein Potassium Injection Dosage'. This was the reason why he wasn't knocked down in one shot. His lips curled into a sinister grin.
"You're not the only one with the trump card of the honorary medicine! Fool! "
In this instance, Lille tightly gripped his saber hilt. The snakeskin wrapped around the saber hilt gave Lille a warm and steady feeling. This long saber's edge had already been stained with too much enemy's blood. Today! Today, the soul of another enemy would definitely be hovering on its edge.
A mournful deep blue saber flashed out once again. Lille carried an immense sense of superiority as he pulled the saber's edge. Sheyan's blood instantly spurted out as he staggered backwards. Sheyan's expression of shock and disbelief undoubtedly made Lille even more pleased with himself. (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to come to qidian.com to vote for me.
