“Shush!”

Gushes of blood splashed out, and two bodies holding their necks fell down.

Soran was more and more familiar with the skill of throat-cutting. In battle, the success rate of Test of Death was getting higher and higher. If he did not have enough strength, he may not even be able to chop off someone’s head. If a person wanted to use the skill Beheading, then he or she must have at least 18 strength or more, or else that person would have to integrate the momentums of movement. Even if Soran cut through the neck with all his strength, he could only get through an inch, and not completely cut through the neck.

His figure was still hazy, but people could judge his position from the airflow, movement, and sound from him.

“Greater Invisibility [level 4 spell]; this spell works like Sneak, but it doesn’t break after an attack. After casting, the user takes a completely invisible state. After launching an attack, the user may expose his position because of airflow, contour, and sound. The effect of the spell will be weakened gradually with battle, but it could still give the user a hazy effect. Even if the enemy perceives the user’s position, the user still has 4 points of hazy effect, and the enemy would have 4 reduced accuracy. Every Spellcasting Score translates to 1 minute of spell duration.

The Great Invisibility spell was, without doubt, a very powerful spell.

The only flaw was the duration, even Soran could only maintain the spell for ten or so minutes.

Even legendary wizards could only maintain the spell for about half an hour. However, since Soran had mastered the metamagic ability [Empower Spell]; in the future, when he has a level 5 spell slot, Soran could use the level 5 spell slot to memorize Great Invisibility. At that time, the duration of the spell could be increased by 50%.

Empower Spell was definitely much more powerful in the early game, or else he wouldn’t have given up the other metamagic abilities.

“Thub, Thub, Thub.”

Soran’s figure moved quickly while killing many in his way. The enemy simply could not see his weapon, thus the probability of blocking it was greatly reduced; they could only rely on their own perception to avoid the attacks. At this time, the enemies with high basic attributes could see at a glance where Soran was and avoid his attacks. Unfortunately, they still had no way to reverse the situation because Soran’s extraordinary Dexterity was too overwhelming.

“Shush, Shush, Shush!”

The battle had now continued for five minutes and the enemy was no longer confused.

They had thought of a solution!

That was to throw their weapons and shoot with crossbows and bows. Although friendly fire may occur, at least they wouldn’t be in a passive position.

“Tang, Tang, Tang!”

Soran blocked the weapons thrown at him, but he still couldn’t block arrows.

“Pa!”

Soran was hit by three crossbow bolts and slightly retreated, but he was not injured because he had cast Stoneskin. The effects of Stoneskin had been much stronger; even though the crossbow bolts had hit Soran, the damage was negligible. None had damaged his viscera. The enemies were loading their crossbows, and some were slashing randomly to prevent Soran from approaching them.

“It seems that a battle test really was required!”

Soran’s expression was not very good. He raised his hand and pulled out the bolts. He then murmured, “I even had to activate my legendary equipment! If I didn’t have Stoneskin, I probably would have been severely injured. It seems that although Greater Invisibility was very powerful, it could not overwhelm the enemy completely.”

“Evade Sight!”

Soran activated the Shadow Dancer’s ability and went directly into Sneak. his figure which had been exposed completely disappeared once again.

Greater Invisibility could be stacked with Sneak, thus Evade Sight was still useful in this case!

“Where? Where did he go?!”

The remaining pirates were filled with fear; some even screamed and attacked randomly.

Suddenly the deck shook slightly, and a footprint appeared on the side of the wall. The next moment there was a splash of blood. It was only after a pirates guts had been slashed open that Soran’s figure was slightly exposed. Soran had now rushed into the crowd of enemies, waving two swords and using the familiar Ground Blade Style, seven or eight pirates in front of him burst into screams. Their legs were either slashed by the curved sword or cut off directly. Inside the cramped cabin were chopped off arms, flesh, and blood. Some of the pirate’s attacks landed on Soran, but they were blocked by the spell Stoneskin.

A lot more of their attacks had landed on other pirates!

“A ghost!…Demon!…run!…”

Finally, a pirate had lost it.
