Chapter 13: Green Rank Equipment!

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

With a shout, the Second-in-command NPC Bandit charged up his [ Crescent Moon Slash ] and brought it down onto Su Chen’s neck!

243!

The level 15 full-strength attack that had been fully charged up had struck Su Chen’s at his vital points, instantly taking half of his health bar!

However, the real danger was yet to come.

No matter how strong Su Chen’s Fireball was, he was still a Mage that exceled at long-ranged combat. It was a rather difficult feat for him to go toe-to-toe against an enemy at melee distance.

Moreover, as he had left his back wide-open to this second-in-charge bandit, what awaited him after the first slash was another flurry of attacks.

The second-in-charge reined in his horse and raised its hooves. The horse’s front hooves stomped down heavily!

The second-in-charge was prepared to kill this individual who had taken the lives of so many of his brethren in a single move!

36!

A damage value flashed once again.

A hint of shock flashed across the second-in-charge’s eyes, because in his previous experience, the damage value of his stomp should be around 60 points!

Essentially, what had transpired was that in the instant that he brought the hooves down, the player in front of him had forcefully twisted his body, and as a result, he had only take half of the damage.

Realizing this, the second-in-command slashed at Su Chen with his machete once more.

However, Su Chen, whose Fireball had already finished cooling down, intercepted the slash with his staff and successfully avoided any harm to himself.

“Fire!”

A moment of calm followed after the clash between machete and staff.

Seizing this opportunity, Su Chen unleashed the blue-hued [ Fireball ] that he had been casting, and shot it into the second-in-command’s face!

467!

A shocking number suddenly popped out!

“Ah!”

While the second-in-charge was in pain, three-fifths of his HP had already been burned away!

More than half of his HP had instantly evaporated!

Su Chen was not going to let the second-in-command counterattack. He immediately pulled back, but this particular monster seemed to have predicted such a move and instantly gave chase.

He continued to charge towards Su Chen while on horseback!

Su Chen frowned slightly, and he instantly swept his gaze across the battlefield.

The Decurion was being surrounded by the final three bandits, and he caught in a rather desperate battle.

Meanwhile, Qiao Yi was rushing over to his side. However, as a Heavy Shield Warrior, his speed leaves much to be desired. As such, Su Chen came to the conclusion that he needed to rely on himself to break free from this predicament.

There was still one second left before the cooldown of [ Fireball ] would end.

“For taking the lives of my subordinates, you shall die!”

The second-in-charge rushed to Su Chen’s side once again and raised his machete over his head to unleash [ Meteor Slash ] !

Seeing as there was no time to dodge to the size, Su Chen hurriedly crouched down. As a result, he had successfully dodge the slash once again!

Miss!

“How is this possible? !”

The second-in-command had never witnessed such a nimble reaction from a player before. A sense of surprise rose within his heart.

There was still one second left until the end of the chant.

Su Chen and the second-in-command had almost the same amount of HP left.

If they fought head-on, both sides would suffer heavy losses. The second-in-command would be killed, whereas Su Chen would be reduced to a white orb of light that would be transported to the resurrection point.

On the battlefield, two-thirds of the bandits had basically been killed off by Su Chen and the other players.

As for the remaining one-third of them, they had broken through the defense lines of the NPCs and are hunting down the units in the rear. Apart from the level 15 mini boss that was chasing Su Chen around, most of the bandits had already been wiped out.

At this moment.

Although Su Chen did not have much HP left, as he had just consumed a mana potion, his mana reserves were more than enough to deal with the situation at hand.

The second-in-command charged forward once more.

He raised his machete and slashed vertically downwards!

However, Su Chen no longer bothered dodging.

[ Fireball ] !

At this moment.

Blue Flames instantly ignited, and while this was happening, Su Chen activated another skill — [ Lifesteal ]! 

The second-in-command brought down his blade at the same time!

275!

Immediately after, the horse that the bandit was on slammed into Su Chen’s chest!

67!

Overkill damage!

Su Chen’s HP plummeted.

However, the second-in-command seemed to be faring even worse than Su Chen!

452!

At the same time!

100!

The second-in-command was reduced to a ball of white light before disappearing and leaving dozens of Gold Coins and a piece of green ranked equipment in his wake.

Su Chen immediately picked it up and stored it in his storage bracelet.

The reason why Su Chen did not turn into a white light and return to the resurrection point despite the overkill damage was due to his “Lifesteal” skill.

It was precisely because of “Lifesteal” that Su Chen had managed to recover some of his HP before it was fully depleted.

A level 15 mini boss like the second-in-command bandit was supposed to be faced by the Decurion. However, contrary to its usual behavior, it had targeted a player like Su Chen instead.

The reason was very simple.

The Second-in-command always hunted down the individual who had killed the most bandits, be they NPCs or players. Usually, the Decurion was always the one who killed the most bandits. This time, however, it was Su Chen.

Nevertheless, the results were rather nice.

Su Chen had once again unlocked an achievement for single-handedly defeating a boss unit!

He also leveled up on the spot.

Everyone present was dumbfounded!

Whether it was from the sheer firepower of his skills…

Or the never-before-seen movement techniques, all of them made the players present exclaim in satisfaction.

Chu Xiongzhou was downright flabbergasted. 

It felt as if they operated on fundamentally different levels.

They were both level 10.

They were both Fire Mages.

Yet, it felt as if they were miles apart.

“Brother, what are you doing?”

Qiao Yi walked over to Su Chen. He raised his shield and looked at the players around him who were giving Su Chen strange looks due to the green equipment he had just obtained.

It was only after Su Chen had finished recovering his health and mana via potions that Qiao Yi gradually lowered his shield.

“Little one, are you alright?”

The Decurion, whose armor was stained with blood, walked up to him and asked softly.

Upon realizing he was being addressed, Su Chen’s eyes lit up and a notification from his transmigration system appeared in his field of vision.

[ Relationship with Decurion improved. You can now trigger a hidden quest. ]

“I’m fine. I’ve recovered.”

Su Chen understood and immediately changed the tone of his voice.

The Decurion nodded lightly and turned around to look at the ten surviving members of the battle.

“A hundred Mountain Bandits have been vanquished in this battle, You have all made a great contribution to the safety of Fengwu Town. As such, I’d like to offer my heartfelt gratitude to all of you present.”

“I will ensure that everyone receives a fair compensation for their efforts. Fret not.”

The soldiers celebrated joyfully for a moment before they set off to clean up the battlefield. As a result, only the five players remained on scene.

“All of you adventurers have completed your tasks perfectly. Everyone of you has contributed to the safety of Fengwu Town by vanquishing those vile bandits.”

“The quest you have been assigned to is now over. The three of you are allowed to leave now.”

The Decurion, Wu Lie, spoke to the three players from Chu Xiongzhou’s team.

It was obvious that the additional rewards would be distributed to Su Chen’s team.

Wu lie was simply “Inviting” the three of them to leave.

Upon realizing this, the three of them sucked up their grievances and prepared to leave. After all, they could not possibly lay a finger on the level 15 Decurion, nor Su Chen, who had single-handedly defeated a level 15 mini boss.

“Wait, Chu Xiongzhou.”

Su Chen’s voice suddenly sounded.

Chu Xiongzhou, who was leaving quickly, froze in his tracks. His expression changed drastically, and he turned around stiffly, “What’s the matter?”

Although Chu Xiongzhou was shocked by Su Chen’s strength, at the end of it all, this was still a game, and it was not reality.

“No, I just wanted to send you off.”

Su Chen muttered casually as flames began to condense on his staff.

“S-Send me off… How dare you! I know [ Unstoppable ]’s …”

Boom!

Su Chen would rather not listen to the mongrel’s nonsense. As such, he simply raised his hand and unleashed [ Fireball ] and [ Lifesteal ] at the same time.

Chu Xiongzhou was instantly killed!

The remaining two players were afraid that they would be caught in the crossfire and be sent back to the newbie dungeon over nothing, and thus, they had already teleported away long ago.

“Then, let’s talk about the reward that you promised, Decurion.”

Overjoyed that the annoying Chu Xiongzhou was now gone, Qiao Yi felt that his heart was much lighter now, and thus, he posed the question to the Decurion.

Hearing this, Wu Lie flashed a bitter smile and nodded.

“Okay..”
