37 Knife Throwing Skills in Grandmaster Realm (1/2)
It was difficult for even powerful martial artists in Blessed Realm to withstand a blow from someone at the peak of Gate Realm, much less a new player who had not reached any realm.
With a heart full of anger and murderous intent, Second Tomb Robber struck his target with a savage expression on his face, but soon, surprise appeared on his face. The short blades in his hand did not cut the boy who had killed Third into three pieces.
When the short blades cut through the blue-robed boy's clothes with a fierce momentum, they touched an incredibly tough object. Not only did it block the force from the short blades, they were also knocked to the sides. When he looked carefully, Second saw a black metallic shine at the tear. The force he had used to slash at the boy turned into tremors that knocked the boy backwards!
Ink Armor!
The brat actually had a metallic leather armor that cost thousands of taels of silver crumbs.
As he stared at the boy who was knocked back, Second Tomb Robber became even more furious. He also felt incredibly indignant!
But before he could chase after the boy, two cold rays of light shot toward him.
'Hit him!'
Once Happy escaped death, he clenched his teeth, endured the sharp pain in his chest, and threw two lancet knives. The cold glares shot forth with the speed of lightning and moved in between Second Tomb Robber's blades.
When thrown at such a close distance, there was no way Second Tomb Robber could avoid the knives.
With a pained scream, Second Tomb Robber moved back while covering his injured eye! Blood gushed out nonstop from the cracks between his fingers, and he looked horrifying. One of Happy's knives had taken away one of his eyes.
'Whew!'
Once Second lost one of his eyes, his fighting ability would be greatly reduced. There was no way he would still dare to linger around to fight. As he screamed in pain, he did not even have time to take care of the leader of the tomb robbers, who lay on the ground and whose survival was still unknown. He turned around and dashed swiftly into the forest on unsteady feet. Trails of blood were left behind on the ground.
'Pity!'
There was no way Happy would let a target he already had in his hands go.
He raised his hand and flicked his wrist.
The lancet knife instantly went after Second Tomb Robber's back. It pierced him, pinning the man on the ground near a big tree.
”Battle ended! Battle Assessment: Class A!
”The Realm of your Lancet Knife Throwing Technique has increased!”
Right after the battle ended, multiple system notifications rose in succession. Then, with a clear ding, the system said its last words. ”Congratulations, your Lancet Knife Throwing Technique has reached Grandmaster Realm.
”Your CPH has increased by two points!”
[Lancet Knife Throwing Technique: Level 99.99]
When he heard the notification from the system, Happy slumped down on the ground. He had been pretty badly injured by Second Tomb Robber's blade. He panted, and a relaxed and relieved smile appeared on his pale face.
He had indeed made the correct choice to accept the governor's deadly quest.
Even though the process was a little dangerous, it was worth it. The cooperation between two powerful martial artists at the peak of Gate Realm had indeed forced the system to give him a Class A battle assessment, or else, with the current Realm of his Lancet Knife Throwing Technique, it would have been very difficult for him to get any further increase if he just faced off normal martial artists in Gate Realm.
He dragged his injured body up and began to grope about the two tomb robber's bodies.
Most of the valuables were obviously on the leader's body. Besides having around six thousand taels of silver crumbs, he also had a martial arts manual along with an ancient jade with an extraordinary appearance.
Happy toyed with the ancient jade in his hands. It was a normal jade ring in the shape of a tiger. Its color was pure, but it was not of superior quality. However, the technique in the carving was very good. Not only did it give off a mighty presence, the expression on the tiger's face as it roared was also completely brought out. In fact, it gave off a very distinct, domineering presence.
Even if Happy had absolutely no knowledge about jade items, he could still tell based on his instincts that this was an extraordinarily precious jade!
However, Happy, who ranked among the extremely powerful martial artists who dominated the top ranks of World of Martial Arts in his previous life, would not be tempted by any jade, no matter how valuable.
Happy put all his rewards into his bag and cast a glance at his qi.
[Qi: 32.47. Less than 8 qi points required to enter Gate Realm.]
