As Liu Ming saw the message above the Boss-level Berserking Hound’s head, it seemed to have also seen Liu Ming. After discovering Liu Ming, the Berserking Hound King pounced onto Liu Ming without hesitation.

Liu Ming was already prepared for it. Hence, he managed to dodge the attack effortlessly. After dodging the attack, Liu Ming immediately raised his hand and stabbed the Berserking Hound with his sword.

-53

Seeing a damage indicator line darting out of the Berserking Hound’s head, Liu Ming felt a little more confident. Previously, Liu Ming was still afraid that the Berserking Hound King’s Defense would be too high and that he would not be able to deal much damage to it. However, it now seemed that although the Berserking Hound King had high Defense, it was generally still within the acceptable range.

Since this was the case, Liu Ming had no reason to leave. After making up his mind, Liu Ming’s figure suddenly accelerated and dashed in front of the Berserking Hound. He then slashed its head menacingly with the longsword in his hand.

Long-range Raid!

-81

At the instant when a damage value—which far exceeded Liu Ming’s normal attack—appeared, five golden stars began spinning above the Berserking Hound’s head.

A small vertigo icon appeared below the information bar.

As soon as Liu Ming succeeded with one strike, he took the opportunity to make up for it with two more slashes. Thus, Liu Ming slowly began fighting it out with the Berserking Hound King, relying on his somewhat excellent positioning.

In less than ten minutes, the Berserking Hound King only had 351 HP left. On the other hand, Liu Ming lost a layer of skin.

Apart from the fact that Liu Ming’s positioning wasn’t too bad, the main reason for this was that the Berserking Hound King’s attacks were far too simple. However, that was still within Liu Ming’s expectations. After all, according to the Critical Hit rate in God Domain, the vast majority of players would probably only obtain introductory White Skills after reaching Level 5.

If the Berserking Hound King’s Skills were too fancy, those players would probably curse the game’s planners and their entire families.

However, just as Liu Ming slashed the Berserking Hound King again and removed 53 HP from it, something changed.

A sudden burst of red light emerged from the Berserking Hound King’s body, followed by it accelerating abruptly.

Liu Ming, who was caught off-guard, was scratched by the Berserking Hound King forcefully.

An unprecedented amount of damage floated past Liu Ming’s eyes, immediately giving him a great shock.

“Damn it! Stupid planner, you are really inhumane…” After cursing the game’s planners in his heart, Liu Ming looked at the additional piece of information under the Berserking Hound King’s information bar while dodging its attacks.

[State Of Berserk: Attacking power increases by 100%, attacking speed increases by 50%, and Defense decreases by 50%. Time Remaining: 4 minutes and 42 seconds]

Upon seeing that message, Liu Ming finally understood why the Berserking Hound King’s attack had suddenly become much higher. However, Liu Ming still cursed the game’s planners in his heart. After all, if the Berserking Hound King underwent a berserking mutation when it only had 10% or 20% of its HP left, everyone would definitely more or less be on their guards.

If faced with the Berserking Hound King—whose HP had decreased to less than 10% of its original amount—that Liu Ming was facing, most players would probably be caught off-guard and suffer a huge loss.

Of course, Liu Ming was not slow in his actions while he was cursing the game planners.

[You have activated Blessing Of Lady Luck. Luck Stats x10, Duration: 60 seconds.]

After activating his talent, Liu Ming activated his Long-range Raid Skill without hesitation and charged towards the Berserking Hound.

-212! (Critical Hit)

While causing great damage to the Berserking Hound King, Liu Ming once again gave it vertigo.

While it was unwell, Liu Ming would kill it!

When he saw the Berserking Hound suffering from vertigo, Liu Ming stabbed it again without hesitation.

-140! (Critical Hit)

A massive Critical Hit damage indicator appeared, and the Berserking Hound collapsed indignantly. Rays of white, green, and blue light, as well as two rays of purple light, exploded.

Two rays of upgraded golden light erupted from Liu Ming’s body consecutively, allowing Liu Ming to advance to Level 5.

At the same time that Liu Ming leveled-up, players in the same novice area as Liu Ming received an announcement from the system.
