Chapter 524 - Slap In The Face (1/2)

‘The pride of normal players?’ Charming Smile pondered over the sentence, but let out an expression of disdain. She took out an item, which shone faintly with the light of Dark Gold, and threw it to that player.

That person never thought that he could actually get back his equipment, so he showed his gratitude to Lin Jie ecstatically. Afterward, that Berserker, who looked slightly younger, with the ID Shadow of The Wind, arrived. He was the owner of that item. He took the item and thanked Lin Jie shyly. Then he took a look at Charming Smile, and with a flushed face, he said, “Thank you for returning me my equipment.”

Lin Jie could not help but laugh. Charming Smile had tricked him and stolen his equipment, but he still thanked Charming Smile? ‘Looks like he is quite an interesting person too.’

Charming Smile looked at him as if she were in a daze. After a long while, she blushed and turned her face to the other side. She snorted. “No need to thank me! I’ll leave first.”

Seeing Charming Smile leave, Shadow of The Wind’s eyes looked a little sad. He smiled embarrassingly and explained to his teammates, “Well, everyone, don’t be angry anymore. Maybe, I was too careless, making everyone uncomfortable while leveling up. How about this, later when we go back, I’ll treat and let’s have a drink, okay? Leader Lone Wolf, thank you so much, this item is essential to me.”

Lin Jie nodded. Although the aim this time was to let Charming Smile change her bad habit, it was a good thing to obtain the respect and trust of a batch of solo players. He was just about to call Very Fat and Dark Earl to enter the Hall of Abomination when a taunting voice sounded from the crowd. “Tsk, tsk, tsk, you’re really the leader of Brotherhood. Your popularity-gaining ability is indeed not bad.”

The person who spoke was named Silent Ghost, from his equipment, he looked like a Weapon Specialist. He scoffed. “Sending extras to make a scene to gain popularity, is there any point? Just now, that woman also stole one of my Dark Gold items, could Leader Lone Wolf please help me solve it too?”

From Silent Ghost’s sarcastic tone and harsh words, even an idiot could tell that he was just looking for trouble.

Shadow of The Wind said frankly, “This brother, just now, it seems you were not inside my team, right? When did she steal your equipment?”

“Hmph, who do you think you are to have the qualifications to ask me a question?” Just as Silent Ghost’s finished speaking, he unsheathed his sharp blade and actually swung it a few times. Shadow of The Wind was instantly forced to retreat, and five 400+ damage values popped up from his head. Shadow of The Wind’s health bar instantly decreased by 2/3!

Lin Jie’s pupils constricted. ‘Such fast speed!’ Maybe, it might be difficult for others to see clearly, but Lin Jie was able to observe the technique within. Silent Ghost’s technique was quite good. He had instantly connected a normal attack with the skill of a Weapon Specialist, and then the side effect of shaking backward due to the skill was directly canceled by the preparation action of another skill he activated. Afterward, it was connected once again with a normal attack. That was the technique of being able to have an outburst of attacks instantly.

However, such a technique was not used often. In Lin Jie’s case, it was effortless for him if he wanted to do what Silent Ghost had done and easily surpass Silent Ghost. The principle of that technique was to make use of seldom-used skills to cancel the Stiffening of an attack. However, that needed one to learn many useless and trashy skills.

Simply speaking, it was a short outburst attacking method that consumed tens of skills at once.

“You!” Shadow of The Wind was knocked back by such an attack, so he angrily lifted his sword and charged towards Silent Ghost!

“Tsk, tsk, you’re really biting off more than you can chew! Let me show you the strength of Split Second Five Slashes!” Silent Ghost smiled coldly and tightly grasped his longsword on his right hand. Then he pierced towards Shadow of The Wind’s attack head-on! The two swords collided in the air, and clanging sounds of metals could be heard in the air. Just at that moment, Silent Ghost vibrated his sharp sword and unleashed the technique named Split Second Five Slashes once again.

Shadow of The Wind gasped in astonishment, but he found a gap, and his right hand swelled up vigorously, scratching towards Silent Ghost’s face!

Lin Jie could see in a single glance that most likely, Shadow of The Wind had seen many of his battling videos! That was because what Shadow of The Wind did was imitating Lin Jie’s Death Grip. Although Shadow of The Wind’s skill was slightly poorer, it was only a normal grabbing skill. Who would have thought that Shadow of The Wind was still partially Lin Jie’s fan?

Shadow of The Wind was still slightly stronger than normal players. At least, his ability in looking for weak points was powerful. He might have great potential if he were to be trained. Currently, Shadow of The Wind wanted to showcase his technique in front of his idol, so he grabbed Silent Ghost’s face with his right hand and his left hand, which held a sword, pierced towards Silent Ghost’s throat. Shadow of The Wind even found the perfect opportunity to activate Outraged Roar and wanted to control his opponent.

“Trash!” A sharp gaze flashed in Silent Ghost’s eyes as he finally revealed a cynical expression. He activated Heroic Strike and Giant Strike! It was as if countless sword shadows had been created in his hand, and Shadow of The Wind’s armor was letting out iron wails of suffering. Silent Ghost had used 20+ skills consecutively in that instant, and 10+ of them were to cancel the stiffening of the body from skills. The remaining few attacks all struck Shadow of The Wind’s body.

-537!

-472

…

Waves of damage values popped up, and Shadow of The Wind flew away like a kite with a broken line—he had actually been killed once again! The item he had obtained back from Charming Smile’s hands was tragically dropped yet again.

Everyone was stunned, by Silent Ghost’s quick attacking speed! If that person was in a normal team, then he would be the legendary expert!

Silent Ghost picked up the item and observed it. He scoffed. “So it was a Dark Gold item, no wonder he treasured it so much. Since it was so, then it’s mine now!”

“Who taught you?” Lin Jie finally spoke.

“Hehehe, teach? Lone Wolf, did you think that only you can create your own battling techniques?” Silent Ghost said, “This technique is an ultimate skill that I have created myself!”

Lin Jie shook his head and said seriously, “You don’t have that ability.”
