196 Chapter 196 - Because You are Near (2/2)

Gu Fei ignored their teasing and merely indicated to Brother Assist the very exposed Silver Moon, ”Quickly appraise him!”

”I've already appraised him. I really can't get anything out of it!” Brother Assist shook his head and sighed.

”Isn't it just a matter of probability when it comes to appraising something successfully?” Gu Fei asked.

”Maybe...” The officials did not clearly provide information on this matter, so nobody could tell for sure.

”Let's kill the rest and leave Silver Moon alive, so that you can appraise him for a hundred times. Maybe, you will find something out by doing that,” Gu Fei suggested.

”Is this how you plan to torture him?” Everyone sharply inhaled.

”Uhm… Isn't this something you need?” Gu Fei questioningly gazed at Brother Assist.

Brother Assist just wiped the non-existent sweat off his forehead.

”Let's talk about this after we kill the rest,” Young Master Han waved his hand dismissively.

”Wait for me to recover my mana!” Gu Fei requested hurriedly.

”Chill, man. You've already killed a few; why don't you leave the rest to us and let us earn some kill points?” Several of his fellow mercenaries eagerly rubbed their fists and palms as they went forward, and it was obvious that they had no intention of waiting for Gu Fei at all.

Straightforwardly clashing with one another without any strategy… This essentially boiled down to their skills and the teamwork of both sides. Silver Moon mercenary group's two Guardians and one Warrior formed a triangle with Silver Moon at its core, and he blessed the three with Blessing of Strength. This was to ensure that his comrades would grow even stronger when he used King's Command later.

Over by Young Master's Elite mercenary group, each person did what he was best at. Royal God Call fired off arrows from afar, War Without Wounds and Sword Demon closed in on the enemies to strike at an opportune moment, Brother Assist blessed his comrades accordingly, and Young Master Han readied his staff to bestow Heal on his team's two melee job classes. Since Silver Moon and his fellow mercenaries did not have any long-range capabilities, there was no need for Young Master's Elite to worry about long-range attacks at all.

Once War Without Wounds and Sword Demon were near enough, Silver Moon raised his sword, and the two Guardians and one Warrior were suddenly infused by golden light and used Charge to rush at the approaching two.

The two were already prepared for this; Sword Demon activated Fleetfoot and circled around the three, while War Without Wounds braced himself to receive the charging enemies. While the ensuing collision looked frightening to onlookers, the game still calculated the damage systematically. In the end, War Without Wounds' high defense rendered the enemies' tackle as ineffectual.

After purposely receiving the enemies' Charge, War Without Wounds did not counterattack and instead chose to shout out a number behind him.

Young Master Han smiled and relayed this to Brother Assist.

Brother Assist quickly understood what was happening and promptly added the equipment data he had appraised from the Guardians to do some calculation. Since the Guardians' weapons were shields, their Attack Power was only based off on their Strength as well as the skill's inherent damage, simplifying Brother Assist's calculation process. Brother Assist took out a booklet and began to solve it using Xs and Ys. Royal God Call temporarily stopped his attack to take a look at Brother Assist's calculation, ”Is there a need to do column equations?”

Young Master Han looked sideways at Royal God Call, ”I knew it. A student like you who play games every day truly doesn't spend time on his studies. You call that 'column equations'? That's 'function', which uses X and Y as variables. Do you understand what variables are? It's….”

Their three opponents that were under the effect of King's Command were desperate to score a hit against them fast, as there was a limit to how long Silver Moon could use that skill. Unfortunately for their enemies, Young Master's Elite was made up of a bunch of old hands that were not foolish enough to confront them at such a period. Instead, they scattered about and fled in different directions. Even War Without Wounds who was closest to the buffed enemies had managed to quickly pull away from them with his life intact by using Charge.

Eventually, the King's Command skill ended and the two Guardians and one Warrior returned to their normal state.

Young Master Han noted the time and muttered, ”Silver Moon's skill lasted about twenty-five seconds last time, but it did not even reach twenty-five seconds now. Probably because he has blessed each of his three comrades before this. By the looks of things, that skill depletes his mana as he channels it.” With that, he shouted to his team's Knight, ”How's your calculation progressing, Brother Assist?”

”Don't rush me! How can I calculate all these so quickly? I don't know how much damage their Charge skill can provide, so my calculation may not be too accurate. I think it's better to find someone to get tackled again!” Brother Assist replied.

”But the battle is about to end already...” Young Master Han said as he stared at a certain direction.

In that direction, Gu Fei, who had already recovered his mana, was sprinting over with a huff.
