Chapter 323: Shocking Attack Speed!

Translator: Atlas Studios  Editor: Atlas Studios

Lin Jie chose his members wisely this time. Each individual had been well-known in his previous life. Those fellows had been brave and had good character. Lin Jie had spent 7 years with them in his previous life. Thus, he trusted them a lot.

Dragon Slayer Knight had been ranked amongst the top 5,000 Knights in his previous life. With his skills, he could be ranked top 10, but he had been ambushed by the Three Alliances after obtaining an ancient Heritage item, [Secret Technique of Dragon Slayer]. If he practiced this skill and killed some Dragons, he would become a real Dragon Knight!

However, the Three Alliances had chased after him for half a month. As long as he would leave the town, he would be attacked by many Bandits, Druids, and Hunters. He had been so agitated by this that he had offered the skill book to Dark Shrine in exchange for temporary Stats bonus. Then, he had gone around, destroying the Three Alliances’ guild hall. When he had been at his prime, he had soloed 3,000 Mages from the Three Alliances and won!

When the bonus stats had vanished, he had disappeared from people’s sight, and his rank gradually dropped to within 5,000. If he could have used the skill book instead, he would have definitely been one of the top 10 Knights!

Sardine had argued with his team leader once in a mission because he had felt that the distribution of loots had been unfair to his teammates. The leader had been part of Bloodshed Guild, and he had asked hundreds of people to hunt Sardine. He had only managed to fight off half of them before he had given up and deleted his game account.

These fellows had been famous players in The New Age.

There were other good players too, some were even in the top 100. However, according to Lin Jie’s memory, those guys only looked at their own merit. Thus, Lin Jie did not feel like recruiting them.

‘Baili Xuanyuan, what he is up to now?’ Lin Jie stared at him through his Spirit Vision while pretending to be relaxed.

Baili Xuanyuan nodded to thin air, as though he was giving instructions.

When everyone was crowding around Lin Jie to get some benefits, there was a disturbance in the air. It was not very obvious, even Druids with Beast Intuition, or an anti-invisibility skill could hardly notice it because of the crowd!

“Hahaha, we love killing people at higher tiers!” A voice echoed throughout the air, while three people struck at Lin Jie’s head! They were trying to test the system and start a PK in the city!

As everyone knew, it was against the rules to start a PK in the city. Countless of Paladins would appear and arrest the players. Other than the time Lin Jie had transformed into a dragon and started a killing spree, not a single case of city PK had been left unsettled. Furthermore, the reason why Lin Jie had succeeded was that he had the power of the Moratti Shrine Dragon Envoy power, and the patrol guards were too weak at that time.

The three attackers did not hesitate at all! They were prepared to kill Lin Jie on the spot!

If Lin Jie were to look carefully, he would be astonished—those three were the same Dark Blood Bandits that had assaulted him outside of Midolhaar.

Several people, who wished to become Dark Blood Bandits, had been hunting the trio because their Man-Slaughtering Sword had no buff at all.

That was when Baili Xuanyuan had appeared and recruited them with a huge amount of money. In return for the protection he offered, they must listen to him. A few seconds ago, they were ordered to kill Lin Jie when he was defenseless at all costs. They needed to delete their accounts afterward. As compensation, Baili Xuanyuan would offer them a considerable sum of money.

The trio believed that it would take too long to regain their strength, so they had decided to take the chance.

Swoosh—

They had spent all their contributions and exchanged them for a [Blood Demon Fluid]. It could be used as a poison and allow the next attack to have 100% Critical Chance and Armor Ignore. It would deal an extra 20% Max HP damage too! They were very determined to kill Lin Jie this time!

“PK in the City of Light? You guys are mad!” shouted Lin Jie and used his Enchanted Scaly Armor with Holy Light Winged Armor. He slashed in the air and used the reaction force together with Against the Wind and Glide to dodge the attacks.

“Chase after him!”

The three Blood Bandits used Rush and ran towards Lin Jie.

“Feeders!” Lin Jie suddenly rushed at them.

“Hunter’s Forward Charge! Wild Charge!”

Lin Jie was so fast that he resembled a shadow. Even if the attacks possessed an active radar homing feature, they could not lock on Lin Jie easily.

Clang—

Lin Jie took out two weapons. They were his Broken Blade and the Supplementary Sword! The weapons were giving off a very bright glow, mesmerizing the crowd seeing them for the first time.

“What light is this? Gold weapons don’t even emanate such brightness!”

“According to rumors, that Lone Wolf has a weapon that can evolve unlimited times. Maybe this, wait, but that weapon does not have a sword attachment…”

“Look, they are fighting now!”

Lin Jie did not care about the crowd at all. The three Bandits had dared to provoke him here, so they were as good as dead!

They exchanged blows!

Broken Blade met with one of the blades, and the three Bandits revealed a smirk. If Lone Wolf used skills to fight back, he probably could last a bit longer. Bandits had the highest Attack Speed in the game, and there was no way they were going to lose to a Warrior.

Bang!

-112!-102!

-874!-251!

Four numbers jumped up.

Lin Jie, equipped with Kiara Beast King Armor, Holy Light Winged Armor, and Enchanted Scaly Armor, received more than 1,000 points of damage. Dark Blood Bandits were really a pain in the ass.

The Blood Bandits were surprised too! If they had landed a Critical Hit, they could have killed Lin Jie in an instant!

‘He has about 4,000 HP! But Lone Wolf did not use his skills. Although my attack cannot penetrate his armor and poison him, my attack speed is twice of his. Before I die, I can at least hit him twice. We will explode after death, and coupled with the Blood Demon Fluid, it is more than enough to kill him!’ The attackers thought to themselves and continued attacking.

However, Lin Jie struck again!

-1,602!

One of the Bandits was sent flying and died instantly!

‘What? How did he attack again…’ The poor fellow had no idea why Lin Jie had such high Attack Speed.

Lin Jie struck the remaining Bandits. Lin Jie’s Attack Speed was twice that of a normal Warrior, and none of the onlookers could understand why.

“Die!”

The two Bandits were also sent flying, crashed, and then lay on the floor motionless.

“Holy crap! Lone Wolf killed three Bandits without using a single skill!”

“I’ve seen these three before. They are the Dark Blood Bandits from Midolhaar! They could deal high-damage attacks and possessed incredible Attack Speed.”

“Lone Wolf is the one with high Attack Speed! He struck twice with one hit! As for the damage, it’s skyrocketing!”

After the fight, the onlookers’ respect for Lone Wolf deepened.

However, this was way below Lin Jie’s actual skill. He still had many skills yet to use. His basic attack could easily go beyond 1,000!

Lin Jie kept his weapon and looked at Baili Xuanyuan. He smiled and said, “Surprised? Your men failed.”

Baili Xuanyuan smiled politely and said, “C’mon, don’t push every blame on me. Maybe others just wanted to have their revenge? That’s normal too.”

“Oh, really?” Lin Jie walked toward Baili Xuanyuan and looked at him from head to toe. Then he taunted him. “Why don’t you give it a try and do it personally? Anyway, since you are level 0 now, it doesn’t matter if you are killed, right?”

Baili Xuanyuan was a very composed and cunning man. However, no one could endure such taunting and humiliation in front of so many people. For some reason, Baili Xuanyuan did not overreact, and he said calmly, “Lone Wolf, don’t be cocky. In another two weeks, there will be a competition in The New Age. You will lose, no matter what!”

Lin Jie knew of the competition, of course. Not only that, he was very confident in coming in first, too. However, Baili Xuanyuan was acting strangely now.

As a new player, there was no harm even if he got killed. He could save some face even if he tried to talk back to Lin Jie. Unless he could not afford to die.

“Baili Xuanyuan! You think you can walk away so easily? Why don’t you just die a few times here in the City of Light?” said Lin Jie, emphasizing each word, as though sentencing Baili Xuanyuan.
