Chapter 110: Broken Wings
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Footsteps approached with roars from the crowd. There were more than 60 people in sight! It was hard to spot the mages that were moving behind slowly, and only a dense mass could be seen. The members at the front row all had equipment that was level 10 and above.
A knight was particularly eye-catching with a mixed set of silver and gold equipment. The longsword he had on his back was like a saw. It was a gold weapon that was obtained from the Lamisu Mountain, and it was called the Hundred-teeth Sword. Its attack was comparable with the Dark Slaughter Longsword, and it had a slowing and bleeding effect.
This warrior was Broken Wings from Angel Descent. He had been amongst the top 30 Weapon Specialists in his previous life. He was excellent in combos, but his stats were more endurance-oriented. Unlike ordinary Weapon Specialists, he relied on strong defense and combos to kill targets instead of using one set of skills.
Broken Wings raised his sword and shouted, “Forward Charge!”
Shoosh!
A dozen streams of light flashed in front of Lin Jie like black thunders and reached him in a flash.
“Wind Rider Blade Aura Executioner!”
Lin Jie aimed at Broken Wings and released a Blade Aura. It landed right on his sword, and a loud metal clashing sound was made.
-245!
‘What a high defense!’ Lin Jie was stunned for a moment. Ever since he had started using the Broken Blade and Dark Slaughter Longsword, it was seldom for his damage to be less than 300.
Broken Wings was shocked in his heart, but he revealed a cold smile instead. The sharp edge of Hundred-teeth Sword cut into Lin Jie’s wrist, and blood oozed out immediately.
-38!
“What?” Broken Wings stared in disbelief. That was no mistake, he received only 38 damage!
“Isn’t he just a Berserker? How could his defense be higher than a Shield Specialist?”
Lin Jie raised the Broken Blade again and used Army Obliteration right on his face. In a split second, the sword hit his head twice and the third strike came from the top!
Ding!
Broken Wings held his sword with both of his hands and stopped the attack with all his strength. This hit almost killed him!
Looking a the remaining 8 HP, Broken Wings shivered.
The other warriors were on their way! Even though Lin Jie had high defense, he was still afraid of control skills. When facing multiple enemies, one could easily be controlled all the way until he was dead.
‘Run!’ Lin Jie turned around. As a warrior, he had speed comparable to a bandit. Heavy footsteps were roaring into his ears as he tried to dodge the attacks and run inside the Elemental Altar.
“Broken Wings, are you okay?” asked Hell Plume with a red face. Looking at the health bar of Broken Wings, he barked, “What are the priests doing? Heal!”
Due to a slower moving speed, the priests at the back of the team finally arrived and fully healed Broken Wings with just a few skills.
“He has a high attack and defense.” Broken Wings looked at Hell Plume.
Hell Plume ignored the look in Broken Wings’ eyes and asked coldly, “Can we kill him?”
Broken Wings nodded. “We have so many people, surely we can do it.”
“Then do it!”
As the Vice Chairman, Hell Plume had a much worse temper compared to Heaven Plume. After being killed by Lin Jie, Hell Plume quickly asked Broken Wings’ team to retreat from their dungeon mission and helped him out. Broken Wings could not reject him. At first, he just thought that this was just to show his power, but now it turned out that the target was skillful.
Lin Jie went back to the Water Overlord, which just looked at Lin Jie without attacking him. He had left pathetically, and now he was back, still pathetic.
At his back was a crowd that could barely be seen. The army was coming! If those people were just the damage types, Lin Jie had the confidence to kill them all. But facing warriors, paladins, and mages, he could do nothing.
His hand pinched something in the backpack, and a handful of yellowish particles fell into his palm.
It was Elemental Earth, dropped from the Earth Elements.
Swoosh!
Lin Jie sprinkled the Elemental Earth on Latto. The freed Earth Elements could not wait to reform their bodies, and they climbed on Latto’s surface… Slowly, Latto coalesced into a statue-like mountain peak! It turned into a stone carving!
There was a small countdown at the side that read: 15 seconds.
Even after using all the Elemental Earth, he could only restrain Latto for 15 seconds. That was the pure difference in strength! Lin Jie did not dare to use it earlier because after it was attacked by a contrasting element, Latto would enter rage mode.
“Keep running, I’m giving you the chance.”
A faint voice sounded from behind, and a familiar figure appeared in sight. It was Hell Plume! His pets had been replaced by a group of lap dogs.
’13 warriors, an enormous number of mages, and concealed bandits…’ Lin Jie suddenly had a thought, and he ran towards the “mountain peak” at his back.
“Control him!”
With a command, a dagger went for Lin Jie’s head from the back!
Bang!
The dagger went into the head. Before the Stun was in effect, his heavily armored right leg kicked the bandit on his stomach and sent him flying.
The bandit was kicked, and his body tumbled away with his screaming everywhere. Several other stealthy bandits were knocked out.
The Stun effect was gone, and Lin Jie gave a cold smile while running towards the mountain top!
“Get him!” shouted Broken Wings, and he accelerated. His longsword cut Lin Jie on the thigh! That was a difficult position to block. Not to mention that the attack was so fast that even Lin Jie was unable to block it.
-34!
‘A good move!’ Broken Wings’ eyes turned cold, and he turned his sword.
Tendon Tear!
Lin Jie only felt that his legs had been cut and his moving speed had dropped by 50%. Broken Wings had already started his combo attacks. The Hundred-toothed Sword went for the waist, and blood burst out instantly! A 25 bloodshed damage that ignored armor every second was produced. He was like a dancer, taking Lin Jie as the center of the circle while using the movement restriction brought by Tendon Tear to block Lin Jie’s vision. In a few seconds, the Hundred-toothed Sword had hurt Lin Jie’s body badly!
“Tendon Tear!” shouted Broken Wings.
Lin Jie’s shoulder was cut by the sword, and his attack speed dropped by 30%!
He was clearly aware of the attributes of a Berserker. He could deal an insane amount of damage when his health points were low, so it was necessary to restrain him. This attack was perfect as the lower attack speed meant that Lin Jie could not block the subsequent attacks!
Lin Jie’s health point fell rapidly, and he could only see a shadow from Broken Wings.
He was bleeding at 80 damage per second! Lin Jie was like a stump waiting to be cut.
“Die!” shouted Broken Wings and lowered his highly-raised sword!
“Bang—”
The sound of a tremendous blow was like a shell bursting! It was Lin Jie who suddenly loosened the Dark Slaughter Longsword, clenched his fist and hit Broken Wings on the waist.
Broken Wings flew out with a “whoosh” sound.
Other than a sword, warriors’ fists were scary too! Especially for Lin Jie who had insanely high Strength.
This was beyond the common sense of these people! It was always thought that a melee without a weapon in a game was trash. Now Lin Jie taught them a lesson.
Standing tall, Lin Jie pulled out his Dark Slaughter Longsword and pointed it at Hell Plume and smiled coldly.
Time was paused!
The unrestrained nature of a warrior was vividly manifested in that moment!
BOOM!
The mountain below suddenly shook, and Latto escaped the restraint of the Elemental Earth. Its head opened up like a serpent and swallowed Lin Jie!
-258!
Death!
Hell Plume received a system message and laughed.
Suit yourself!

“Erm… I think Fu Sheng is in trouble.” Bu Yi looked at the darken friends column and said worriedly.
Bu Yi, Netherblue, Qiu Yuan, and Water were exploring a new map, and they had made some good progress. They had 120 points distributed to Netherblue, and they had made it to the leaderboard.
“What trouble could he be in?” said Qiu Yuan calmly. “Com’on darling, stop staring at the friends’ column while we exploring, will ya?”
Bu Yi blushed and deactivated the Power Word Shield for Water. “I’ll not buff Water if you talk nonsense again.”
Water was full of tears and said, “Oh please! Com’on! You are arguing with her, I’m innocent! Don’t off my shield, I’m dying…”
A ghoul raised its disgusting rotten claws and grabbed Water’s head.
Forward Charge!
A beautiful blue figure blocked in front of Water. Then, she used Heroic Strike, Heavy Blow, Tendon Tear in succession, and finally, cut off the ghoul’s head.
Netherblue was relieved and said lightly, “Bu Yi, don’t mess around. Qiu Yuan… I’ll bring you to see a psychiatrist tomorrow, see if something can be done for your orientation.”
Water nodded immediately and added happily, “I know a good one, he can treat patients with mental… cough… cough.”
Sensing Qiu Yuan’s killing stare, Water kept quiet unmanly.
“Don’t you care about your teammate?” Bu Yi gave Qiu Yuan a glance.
“Chill, what could be wrong with him.” Qiu Yuan glanced at the words “I’m fine.” in the chat list with Fu Sheng. “He is like a cockroach.”
Netherblue smiled and continued to lead everyone.
She smiled and said, “The War of Light will open many dungeon clusters. We’ll need to work harder.”
Bu Yi blinked and said, “Let Fu Sheng join us, and that will solve everything, right? He is so good. Dungeons are child’s play for him…”
Qiu Yuan and Water felt a little awkward, and they did not know how to continue.
Netherblue nodded and smiled forcefully. She said, “This time, he is our rival. I want to see if he is better than us.”
Qiu Yuan shouted, “Look in front!”
In the dark mist, a knight could be seen wandering around. He was holding a lance and wearing a dark armor. He had no… head!
Headless Knight Dosso: Level 20 Rare Boss, Health Points: 95,000
‘Rare Boss…’ said Water to himself. “Wow! We are going to be rich! It was said that a rare Boss would drop gold coins. It has the same probability of buying authentic goods here in China!”
“Full buff!” said Netherblue solemnly.
Lights shone, and all kind of buffs were activated.
“Get him!”
With their current strength, a four-man team should be able to kill it.
Netherblue got more serious.
At the same time, a dark shadow appeared behind them. He was holding a weird lance and revealed a cold smile.
