Clearly there were some issues with this thorny bear’s intelligence. These thorns weren’t a threat to NaNa and Yin He, but the projectile thorns hadn’t stopped… at least until the thorny bear ran out of thorns on its now-smooth back.
Still, the most impressive aspect of the thorny bear was its claw. Luckily it was Yin He and NaNa doing the close-quarters combat. If it was Liu Gan, his [Mist Armor] would’ve been destroyed ages ago.
If The Trembling World was really a type of game, Liu Gan was cheating. He was using Yin He and NaNa to power-level. If it were other players around his level, their strength would not have been be able to wound the bear even at the first state. Needless to say, they wouldn’t have been able to force a transformation into the second state.
With countless lasers fired at the thorny bear, Yin He was able to severely wound it. NaNa also bit off various parts of its arm. Once the thorny bear was assessed as harmless, Liu Gan was called over. He shoved two hand grenades into the thorny bear to end its life.
A large black orb seeped out from the blown-up bear. It was several degrees less dense than the orb that came out from Kingler. The bear was weaker than Kingler? Aside from that, Liu Gan still felt the burning sensation of leveling up, and his wrist watch confirmed that he was now level 10!
The Trembling World had a rule that every five levels would grant an ability. Liu Gan had three abilities prior to level 10; his abilities were [Mist Armor], [Psychic Shock], and [Dermal Respiration]. With the possibility of a new ability, he hoped it could be some offensive ability that he longed for.
His new ability, [Crescent Blade], had no cooldown timer. [Crescent Blade] could be activated once one of the two requirements are met: If Liu Gan was extremely angry or [Mist Armor] was damaged. [Crescent Blade] could be charged up with this fury to increase its damage output. As long as the fury counter wasn’t empty, then a set amount of fury was consumed on every activation of [Crescent Blade]. Even when both arms and legs were occupied in combat, the ability could still be activated. It projected a ray-like blade from him ten centimeters long that trailed golden light and dealt immense damage to the target.
When fury was fully charged, the [Enhanced Crescent Blade] could be cast. This enhanced ability had a range up to twelve meters away with ten times the power of [Crescent Blade].
The wrist watch didn’t come with any instruction manual other than the ability name, Liu Gan spent fifteen minutes testing his newly gained ability. However, he was unable to activate the [Crescent Blade] ability. Frustrated with his lack of success, he looked down to notice something resembling a counter. As if he sensed the purpose behind it, he ordered Yin He to attack him. The fury counter started to rise up, and eventually he was able to cast his first [Crescent Blade].
Through repeated experimentation, Liu Gan figured that his [Mist Armor] had to be damaged to a tenth of its durability before the fury counter maxed out. Releasing the [Enhanced Crescent Blade], he was surprised at how powerful his first offensive ability was.
The [Crescent Blade] easily sliced through tree trunks up to thirty centimeters in diameter when close up. The [Enhanced Crescent Blade] could slice apart a tree trunk with a diameter of fifty centimeters that was twelve meters away!
This type of ability that required damaging [Mist Armor] to build up fury points was not something Liu Gan was fond of. This pent-up unhappiness turned into anger, which also slightly increased his fury counter. As if he had sensed something, he tested out his theory by doing things that will aggravate himself. Adding to it, he raised his voice and started screaming; he also confirmed that being angry was sufficient in increasing the fury. This was more fitting for his agenda.
