The Death Knight grunted as he reeled from the impact. The Barbarian Warrior had dealt a shocking 1,000 points of damage to the Death Knight without using any spells. If a melee strike could deal 1,000 point of damage, that was some terrifying attack! At this moment, the Berserker’s and Necromancer’s spells rained down on the Barbarian Warrior. Instead of backing away, he charged toward the Berserker and the Necromancer.

The Death Knight, Berserker, and Necromancer merely dealt a collective 1,000 points of damage to the Barbarian Warrior. The magic damage of the Berserker and Necromancer only amounted to 300 points. This was because the Barbarian Warrior’s equipment had magic-breaking properties!

The Death Knight hastily said, “Be careful, his defenses have been enhanced, and he has 5,000 HP.”

The Barbarian Warrior was like a metal tank that was crushing the Berserker and Necromancer. With loud bangs, the skeleton soldiers the Necromancer summoned at short notice were immediately shattered by the Barbarian’s huge swords. Bone fragments shot everywhere. Everything in the swords’ path was swept away.

If they allowed the Barbarian Warrior, a powerful melee class, to get too close, the Berserker and Necromancer would surely die.

The Death Knight bellowed and lifted his lance once more. He kicked the Skeletal Horse with his heels and charged toward the Barbarian Warrior.

Decelerate!

With the Barbarian Warrior almost upon them, the Berserker cast a decelerating spell on the Barbarian Warrior. The Barbarian Warrior’s movements seemed to have slowed down for a moment; then, his body burst forth with dazzling golden radiance. The effects of all the spells cast upon him were negated.

The Berserker cursed, “It’s the rank-7 military merit reward skill, Magic Negation! Run!”

They were feeling quite gloomy now. They had just arrived at Frielanz in Brakada. They had intended to pick some easy prey on the outskirts, but instead they ran into this formidable opponent. A player with a rank-7 military merit was someone held in high regard by the other players! Every player with a rank-7 military merit might not necessarily be powerful against a Boss, but they were certainly undefeatable overlords in a PvP. This was especially true if said rank-7 military merit player was a Barbarian Warrior. Among all the professions, the Barbarian Warrior was a terrifying existence.

The Berserker and Necromancer picked up their pace as they retreated. The Death Knight chased after them. When the lance was about to pierce the Barbarian Warrior’s body, the Barbarian Warrior leapt as high as three meters and dodged the Death Knight’s attack wonderfully.

Berserk Air Slash!

He whipped both swords as one and unleashed an air slash which hit the Berserker’s head mercilessly. The Berserker’s eyes widened in terror as blood splattered everywhere. A single air slash had whittled away 70% of the Berserker’s HP. The health bars of spellcasters were too short. They could barely withstand an attack from a melee user.

With a dull thud, the Death Night’s lance pierced the Barbarian Warrior’s body and dealt about 1,000 points of damage. The Profession of Knights and Death Knights enabled them to increase their damage points as their steeds picked up speed. Hence, the Death Knight’s damage points were increased more than twofold under the acceleration of his Skeletal Horse. That was how the Death Knight dealt 1,000 damage points to the Barbarian Warrior. Even so, the Barbarian Warrior still had 60% of his health points left.

Wild Dance!

The Barbarian Warrior ignored the Death Knight’s attack. He swung his huge swords about, unleashing air slashes. The spinning and wild air slashes instantly devoured the Berserker. Damage of 400 to 500 points was continuously dealt to the Berserker. Blood splattered everywhere. The Berserker fell to the ground, lifeless.

“One down,” said the Barbarian Warrior coldly. He lunged at the Necromancer.

The Barbarian Warrior’s cold voice sent chills down the Necromancer’s and Death Knight’s spine. Was this how a terrifying rank-7 military merit Barbarian Warrior fought? They were horrified. He had killed the Berserker while the three of them had pincered him. The Necromancer and the Death Knight had lost the will to fight. The Barbarian Warrior’s invincibly heroic manner had crushed their determinations.

Seeing that the Barbarian Warrior was now moving toward him, the Necromancer’s heart sank. He summoned as many skeleton soldiers as he could to shield himself. These skeleton soldiers were extremely troublesome to deal with for any ordinary level 40 players. However, under the swords of this rank-7 military merit Barbarian Warrior, they could not even withstand a single blow.

The Death Knight galloped at the Barbarian Warrior. He was gaining speed.

The Barbarian Warrior, who had been chasing the Necromancer, suddenly turned around. He sneered at the Death Knight, “You’re my target!”

Wild Dance!

Streaks of light shot from his huge dancing swords toward the Death Knight. The Death Knight had been charging ahead at too high a speed. He could not stop now.

“Bam!” The two of them collided. The Death Knight’s emaciated figure was sent flying by the Barbarian Warrior’s iron tower of a body. The Skeletal Horse was mercilessly shattered by the air slashes released from the huge swords. (P.S. Death Knights can summon their Skeletal Horses again.)

After two exchanges, the Death Knight was left with 57% of his health points. The Barbarian Warrior did not relent in giving chase. The ruthless attacks of his huge swords washed over the Death Knight like unbroken and perilous waves.

“Puh!” With his steed gone, the Death Knight had no means of dodging the blows from the Barbarian Warrior’s swords. The Barbarian Warrior still had about 20% of his HP left.

Only the Necromancer was left!

The Barbarian Warrior fell into deep thought. With only 20% of his health points, he was near the warning level already. However, the Barbarian Warrior could not bring himself to use the Journeyman rank health potion in his pouch. A vial of health potion cost 200 gold coins. Also, a blood potion could really save his neck if he was in a pinch. Although things were bordering on dangerous at the moment, he should be able to take care of that Necromancer if there were no accidents.

The Necromancers had the undead creatures he summoned form a barrier around him as he prepared his Town Portal Scroll. A white sphere shone on his palm. Reading the Town Portal Scroll would require 20 seconds.

Charge!

The Barbarian Warrior charged toward the Necromancer. His momentum dealt AoE damage to the skeleton soldiers protecting the Necromancer. The skeleton soldiers were sent flying from the impact.

The Barbarian Warrior glanced at his own health bar: 11%.

Kick!

The Barbarian Warrior landed a kick on the Necromancer. The Necromancer’s teleportation was interrupted. At this moment, there was no longer fear in the Necromancer’s eyes. Instead, he started sneering.

The Barbarian Warrior was too careless. He was taking his opponent too lightly to be fighting with 11% of his health points.

The Barbarian Warrior’s attacks rained down on the Necromancer. The Necromancer’s health points dwindled at high speed under the perilous waves of attacks by the Barbarian Warrior.

67%, 38%, 21%, 3%…
