Heroes' Prison

Chapter 718 - 687 Battle Skills

Before this encounter, Huang Yi had already killed many players and had been on the verge of leveling up. After the death of the guardian at level 165, a surge of Experience Points was added to him, leading to a warm flow that took him up to level 162.

The national war had only lasted a few days, but his strength had already increased significantly, steadily advancing during combat.

"It’s your turn!" Huang Yi turned his head to look at the guardian at level 175, his gorgeous golden Holy Dragon wings rapidly flapping! Little Dragon’s wings also flapped in a tacitly agreed rhythm!

The coordinated flapping of their wings traced a beautiful streak of gold in the sky, and in a flash, they were in front of the guardian at level 175. Huang Yi unleashed a Heavy Judgment, sending him flying backwards!

Another crazy onslaught of attacks began.

With the rapid killing of the guardian at level 165, the guardian at level 175 finally felt the oppressive force brought by Huang Yi!

Although Huang Yi’s own Attack Power was similar to his, once mounted on Little Dragon and transformed into a Dragon Knight with incredibly fast Movement Speed, the situation was completely different.

Huang Yi and Little Dragon’s wings flashed, catching up to the guardian at level 175 who was still in midair, and landed another Heavy Judgment!

The guardian at level 175 hadn’t even fallen to the ground when his body was sent flying again...

Just like that, the guardian became like a ball being kicked around in the air by Huang Yi, never able to touch the ground.

This visually striking scene was immediately presented to every viewer watching the live broadcast through the eyes of the reporters, and to Miyamoto Musashi and T.N.T on the beach in Hawaii watching on their Handheld Photon Brain.

"The God of Slaughter’s strength is too great now! Truly a Second Transformation super skilled master!" exclaimed T.N.T, a grave look in his blue eyes as he watched Huang Yi’s ferocious display.

"Now you understand how formidable he is!" Miyamoto Musashi seemed to still mind T.N.T’s previous disdain for his Martial Arts Guild and said coldly, "Look across any guild in the world, and there’s no one who could beat him. They can only use a Guardian, but even for a Guardian, you would need one above level 185. Once the God of Slaughter mounts that strange mount, his strength can match a level 185 Guardian! Although both of us are Super-First Masters, he has now transcended the limits of players and entered into an unfathomable stage. He has disrupted the balance of The Second World, and only death can restore it."

"Can the level 195 Guardian you summoned kill him?" T.N.T rubbed his Bald head and asked with a frown.

Miyamoto Musashi revealed a hint of a smile: "No problem at all! With a difference of more than 30 levels between them, even if the God of Slaughter has the effect of a Status Level increase of one, it can only ensure that there is no difference in status between the two. However, the regular Level Value gap is unavoidable. The disparity of more than 30 levels is too great to bridge. Plus, I’ve given Emperor Gu Xing some S-class Potions, and with various enhancements, his strength can almost be compared to Primary Heaven Domain experts. The God of Slaughter is doomed to die; it’s only a matter of time."

"Then I’m relieved. As soon as he dies, we’ll act immediately. We have to Second Transformation quickly, otherwise we’re still too weak to deal with Guardians," sighed T.N.T, finally relieved as he reverted to his previous nonchalant demeanor.

...

In the Void Battlefield of Northern Sea City, Huang Yi was still fighting the guardian at level 175, caught in a rather prolonged battle of attrition.

Even before his Second Transformation, Huang Yi could kill a guardian at level 175, so dispatching this guardian wasn’t an issue now. It was just not as easy as when he fought the guardian at level 165.

After the enemy’s 10-level increase, their strength was clearly on a different level.

The guardian at level 175 had been battered down to only 30% of his Health Points, covered in wounds and blurring flesh, and his expression started to become frantic.

"Freeze!" At that moment, the guardian immediately used a Control Skill on Huang Yi, freezing him in place and trying to turn tail to escape, to catch his breath.

"Special Pardon!" Huang Yi instantly dissolved the control effect, continued sticking close to his opponent, and his Bloodstained War Halberd kept descending, not allowing the foe a moment’s respite.

"Elemental Rush!" The guardian used a Charge skill, his body emitting a breeze and speeding up rapidly, and in a flash, he broke away.

"Net of Justice!" Huang Yi extended his hand and threw out a light net that instantly shot forward, ensnaring the opponent and dragging them back.

"Fire-Resistant Ring!" The Guardian furiously raised their whip, ready to unleash the skill to repel the surrounding enemies.

As soon as Huang Yi saw the Guardian’s initial movement, he knew they were about to use the famous "Fire-Resistant Ring" skill of the Mage Class. He quickly reached out and grabbed the Guardian’s wrist, executing "Disarm"!

Instantly, the Guardian’s whip was snatched away by Huang Yi, and the "Fire-Resistant Ring" skill failed to activate!

"Blink!" At last, the Guardian used the Mage Class’s most renowned escape skill, and their body instantly teleported to a distance, seemingly shaking off Huang Yi.

"Forced Execution—Pursuit!" Riding Little Dragon, Huang Yi chased after the Guardian in the blink of an eye and knocked them unconscious with a collision.

The two were once again in close quarters.

This series of counter-moves was fluent as flowing clouds and water, as if they were rehearsing a script. No matter what kind of tactics the Guardian employed, Huang Yi was always able to stick to them, fully displaying the dominance and invincibility of a Melee Class!

With one hand, Huang Yi fiercely attacked, giving the opponent no chance to breathe, while his other hand was responsible for breaking through the opponent’s actions. The coordination between his left and right hands was exquisite, leaving the audience around the world utterly amazed.

Especially the warriors, assassins, knights, some hunters, and Eccentrics, and other Melee Class professions were watching Huang Yi’s movements without blinking.

Huang Yi’s style of combat was the dream of those Melee Class professions, sticking close to the enemy, not allowing them to escape.

Within the Melee Class combat system, there’s an interesting theory: "Fighting is like kissing." It compares fighting to a couple kissing for the first time, treating the enemy like a shy girlfriend. Girls, being thin-skinned, will try to dodge when kissing for the first time. During this moment, the boy needs to persist, no matter how the girl dodges, by stubbornly kissing her and not letting her get away, until she’s taken down and loses the will to resist, letting you kiss her to your heart’s content.

Though this theory sounds simple, it is very hard to execute. The enemy’s retreat is instantaneous and hard to predict, often with just a brief moment of premonition. The timing must be incredibly precise, as missing it could mean failing to keep up with the opponent. It is a true test of the player’s reaction speed, timing judgment, and combat anticipation—lose focus for just a moment, and the enemy slips away.

Actually, those earlier counter-moves were effortless for Huang Yi, as his combat no longer required any technique. He has always adhered to two other combat philosophies, one is "One Force Subdues Ten Meetings," and the other is "Martial Arts of the World, Only Fast is Unbreakable."

He couldn’t fully apply the first theory at the moment, as his Attributes and those of the Level 175 Guardian were similar. But the second theory was within his grasp. Once mounted on Little Dragon, their combined Movement Speed far exceeded that of the Level 175 Guardian, allowing Huang Yi to catch up regardless of how the opponent tried to flee.

Thus, the Level 175 Guardian was relentlessly pursued by Huang Yi, unable to escape, their Health Points whittled down more and more.

"Bang!" Finally, the Level 175 Guardian was obliterated by a Heavy Judgment from Huang Yi, their flesh scattered across the sky—a total annihilation!

The Void Battlefield dissipated, and the dark clouds overhead gradually cleared, the sunlight shining down once more, as though a world apart.

Huang Yi, like a lord above all, gently landed back to his original spot as if he had never moved.

From the judgment of the two Guardians until the end of the battle, barely five minutes had elapsed. His fighting was fluid and exhilarating, unstoppable. He vividly exemplified what brutal offense was, what level-challenging was.

The entire world fell silent. The players on the ground looked up in shock at Huang Yi’s figure. Countless reporters didn’t know how to commentate, what adjectives to use, and simply watched him quietly, broadcasting the scene to the entire world, letting the viewers experience it for themselves.

That moment, the Level 185 Guardian took down their curved blade from behind and held it firmly across their chest, watching Huang Yi with wary eyes, as if facing their archenemy.

Their previous underestimation of Huang Yi completely vanished without a trace.
