Chapter 669: Block Instead of Dodge

Translator: Atlas Studios  Editor: Atlas Studios

“Duong!”

This was the sound of Doak’s long sword landing on Wang Yu’s wooden pole.

The [Broken Army Rising Dragon Slash] was a Weapons Master’s level 40 skill and a skill that was executed during a charge. Moreover, the judgement of the attack and force of the attack were incredibly strong. It was a better skill to start an attack with than [Charge]. After a Warrior reached level 40 and learnt [Broken Army Rising Dragon Slash], charge would merely be a skill to help them move around.

The moment Doak’s sword hit Wang Yu, Wang Yu was instantly sent into an airborne state as he floated in the air.

Shortly after Doak’s swing of his long sword, he slashed it towards Wang Yu’s legs.

In mid-air, players would only lose their balance but they could still move their bodies. Wang Yu twisted his legs and his body abruptly turned over. His palms pressed on the top of Doak’s skull.

“Puuu…”

Wang Yu’s hand released a [Rippling Wave] as the reactive force allowed him to fly upwards by half a metre. Doak’s head was attacked and even though his attacks were disrupted, he shook his head slightly as his speed increased and his sword was piercing upwards again.

Doak’s speed was extraordinarily quick as many mirages were formed and directed at Wang Yu’s body. Wang Yu was instantly enveloped by all the sword radiances.

“Ferocious Dragon Space Snapping Slash!!” When Doak used this skill, Fearless and Spring Halo’s bodies shook as they couldn’t help but shout.

Ferocious Dragon Space Snapping Slash was a Warrior’s ultimate move. It was one of the most powerful conventional skills during the beta testing.

In <<REBIRTH>>, there were many hidden skills which was why skills would usually be split into two types: rare and conventional. Conventional skill was a skill that could be learnt from a skilled master. Normally, both the attack effect or damages done of a conventional skill would be slightly lesser than a rare skill.

Because a Warrior was a job of the highest judgement, Ferocious Dragon Space Snapping Slash was much more powerful than skills of the same tier in terms of judgement effect and damage done. Even a rare skill couldn’t be compared to Ferocious Dragon Space Snapping Slash.

During the beta testing, everyone was initially obsessed with finding rare skills. It was Ferocious Dragon Space Snapping Slash that made all players recognise the power of conventional skill.

“It’s over, Old Bull is going to die…”

Fearless muttered to himself.

Even though Wang Yu had the [Spirit Guard], Wang Yu didn’t have much health left. Doak only needed one more attack to force Wang Yu’s [Spirit Guard] out. The [Spirit Guard]’s invincibility timing was only 2.5 seconds while the [Ferocious Dragon Space Snapping Slash]’s discharge was one second more than the invincibility timing. One must know that Wang Yu couldn’t equip his Undying Heart when he was being attacked. This time, there was no way out for Wang Yu.

“No way… Should we go rescue him now?” Ling Longmeng suggested.

“Do you think we can defend a skill which even Old Bull couldn’t defend?” Fearless turned to look at Ling Longmeng and she was instantly speechless.

After all, Ling Longmeng almost cost Wang Yu his life not too long ago. Now that she was reprimanded by Wang Yu, she couldn’t argue.

As Fearless was talking to Ling Longmeng, Doak’s skill was discharged as the sword pierced upwards. Even though it didn’t hit anyone, Doak smiled and brought his sword back.

When everyone saw the gradually dissipating sky full of sword radiance, everyone’s mouth twitched…

Just when even Doak believed that Wang Yu was going to die, he suddenly heard a familiar voice, “Aiyo, pretty strong…”

“???”

Doak heard the words and was stunned.

After the sword radiance was gone, Wang Yu’s figure appeared right in front of Doak. Fearless and co.’s jaws dropped.

This was one of the strongest moves of a Warrior and one executed by an ancient grade Warrior BOSS. Not only did Wang Yu not die instantly, but he also didn’t even suffer any damage. His health bar was the same as previously and it was even slowly recovering.

“This is not possible! You couldn’t have possibly dodged that move!” Doak said unexpectedly as he certainly looked like he was panicking.

Ferocious Dragon Space Snapping Slash was a skill that covered all angles. Once the target has been hit, there was no way out. The only exception to death was if the target had exceedingly high health and defense.

Wang Yu was a Pugilist which meant that both his health and defense wouldn’t be high. It was indeed unbelievable that he could appear unharmed after being struck by the Ferocious Dragon Space Snapping Slash. Even an Ancient was slightly flustered by this.

Ever since <<REBIRTH>> started, Wang Yu was probably the only one who could scare an ancient BOSS in this manner.

“I really didn’t dodge it.” Wang Yu laughed as he replied, “But I blocked it!”

As Wang Yu said that, he raised his pole and showed Doak the sword scar on his pole.

The reason for the incredible power of Ferocious Dragon Space Snapping Slash was the fact that it included both physical and magic attacks in one move. The direct hit of the long sword was the physical attack while the sword energy was the magic energy.

Because of the half a metre that Wang Yu gained right before Doak’s skill, he only received the impact of the sword energy.

If the long sword hit him directly, Wang Yu’s pole would suffer some damage but it was different for sword energy. As long as the sword energy didn’t touch the target, the target wouldn’t suffer any damage.

Of course, Wang Yu didn’t have it all good. After taking on the sword energy of the Ferocious Dragon Space Snapping Slash, Wang Yu’s weapon was ruined by 50%. The attributes were reduced significantly too. This was a heartache for Wang Yu.

“Block…” Doak looked meaningfully at Wang Yu before saying, “You’re indeed a stubborn fella!”

As Doak said that, his body flashed and he bent forward to draw out his long sword. As he rowed out light arc and slashed towards Wang Yu’s head, Wang Yu bent backwards as he used [Thunder God’s Stomp] and struck it on Doak’s chest. This forced Doak back a few steps.

At the same time, Wang Yu got up and charged towards Doak. He took out his long sword and followed exactly what Doak did previously as he pierced it upwards. A move like the Rising Dragon Slash cut Doak from his chest all the way up to his throat and eventually chin.

-21456

Sudden Strike Damage!

Before Doak could respond, Wang Yu took another step forward as he twisted his sword and did the same as he cut across Doak’s throat.

-22478

Sudden Strike Damage!

The two attacks on the throat caused the sudden strike damages so Doak entered a state of dizziness. Wang Yu’s left hand extended forward as he strangled Doak’s neck while his right hand took out his dagger. One after the other, he went on to stab Doak’s heart area.

-11312

-19875

…

Yet another series of sudden strike damages appeared on Doak’s head. When the state of dizziness was dismissed, Doak’s health decreased by 10%.

When Wang Yu saw that the effect was dismissed, Wang Yu grabbed Doak’s throat, pulled back and used [Savage Maul]. Under the effect of [Savage Maul], Doak was forced forward and concurrently, Wang Yu jumped to avoid a spanner on the ground. This caused Doak to fall onto the ground.

Following which, Wang Yu jumped and used his triple [Eagle Stomp] on Doak’s head. While stepping on the head, Wang Yu held his sword with two hands as he continuously stabbed Doak’s back. This resulted in yet another series of damages.
