Chapter 166: Gold Broken Blade

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Time passed by quickly. Lin Jie had already stayed in the Trial Space for 18 hours. Within these 18 hours, Lin Jie had attempted the trials for 20 times but kept failing due to the inability to deal out the required Combo Attacks. His best attempt was Combo Attack 5, but he was disrupted by the counterforce from the Combo Attacks. As a result, he was unable to control the movements of his sword and thus could not change the direction of his attacks fast enough. Needless to say, 20 of Lin Jie’s Strength points were being deducted due to these failed attempts.

Taking off his gaming helmet, Lin Jie discovered that he was already covered in sweat. As he had focused all his might on passing the trials in the game, he was extremely uptight, and his body was all tensed up. Waves of aches surged up from his knuckles—this was the after effect of the nutrient serum.

He jumped off his bed and walked around in his house. Seeing that his parents and sister were all not around, Lin Jie stood in front of the walls and punched out!

Bang—

The feeling of colliding his knuckles against the wall dispersed his aches, making it better. Even though it was painful, he felt somewhat refreshed.

Lin Jie grinned. “Ha, hopefully, I don’t suffer from masochism.” After aimlessly punching out for about 30 or more times, blood started to seep out from his knuckles again. Lin Jie had gotten used to this already. This time round, he decided to try something different—smearing the blood in his palms, he drew a tiny spiral symbol on the wall.

Bang—

Bang—

Aiming at the spiral, Lin Jie started punching out forcefully without any care. There were not as many restrictions in the real world as there were in the game, all he needed to do was to strike out, punch, and punch again! A familiar feeling rose up from his heart—it felt as if he was in the game and had activated Wolf Run Swordsmanship and his attacks were getting quicker and quicker—his punches became faster and faster! Blood splattered around more densely in a smaller and smaller area as Lin Jie’s actions got more wild!

Dong—

When he punched his 100th punch onto the wall, he felt something give way beneath the tip of his knuckles—there was finally a slight dent in the wall today! Although this was nowhere comparable to Wine God Elder, who could make an imprint in the wall just by punching out carelessly, it was still a great improvement!

As the wounds on his knuckles began to heal speedily, Lin Jie mused over the feeling he got from punching out at high speed a while ago and suddenly got an epiphany. He quickly grabbed his gaming helmet and entered the game.

—”Welcome back, you have appeared within the Trial Space.”

The three wooden stakes appeared before his eyes again!

Gripping tightly onto Broken Blade, the sword gave a slight hum as if encouraging him.

‘Let’s go!’

Attack! Army Obliteration!

Lin Jie shook his hands slightly and tried to divide the strikes of Army Obliteration. After the first strike, he immediately changed targets and tapped lightly on the second wooden stake. Following which, he turned around, slashed down with Broken Blade again, and dealt out another blow! Though his steps shifted slightly, his attacks’ positions were spot on and did not change at all—in fact, his strikes were faster than before!

Combo Attack 3! Combo Attack 4!

Lin Jie inhaled deeply, and moving Broken Blade slightly away, he stared in front determinedly—it was as if there was a spiral symbol etched into the depths of his irises—and he stabbed out!

Combo Attack 5!

‘Great!’ Spurring himself on, he moved to the left-most wooden stake. With the same angle and same force, he stabbed out again! This time round, he did not hesitate to see if he had struck his target accurately. The moment Broken Blade touched the wooden stake, he lifted it and swiftly changed targets, dealing out more blows!

Combo Attack 6!

Combo Attack 7!

Combo Attack 8!

Lin Jie finally felt he had mastered the skill! He waved Broken Blade around lightly in exhilaration, but forgot to activate the Army Obliteration skill! Broken Blade flashed past the wooden stakes, and his consecutive strike count reached 10!

Lin Jie curved up his lips and felt extremely confident as he activated Army Obliteration again! After the cracking sounds of the wooden stakes being pierced through were heard, the wooden stakes broke apart into pieces!

Ding~

—’You have completed the third level of the trials, congratulations on getting your reward: Strength +10.’

Lin Jie couldn’t decide if he should laugh or cry when he saw the rewards. ‘Well, isn’t the system humane, eh? So this is the reason why such great rewards are given for the first two levels of the trials, they are meant to be lost away, isn’t it? Now, the third level of the trials just rewards 10 Strength points, haha!’

Regardless, Lin Jie still felt happy that he gained 19 Strength points from all these rounds of trials.

Rethinking about the meaning of this Trial Space, Lin Jie calmed down and begun to see the seriousness of the trials. As one of the best batches of equipment in the game, wielders of the Heritage Equipment must similarly be strong enough! Just imagine if a rookie got this equipment, how would he fare in this Trial Space?

He would most likely be thrown out after all his Strength points were used up, and thus lose all chances of equipping Broken Blade!

Sizzle—

After a thunder hum, a wave of purplish thunder descended gradually.

This was the second Blade segment!

Lin Jie reached out his hands in anticipation and beckoned to it. The Thunder Blade fell into his hands in a docile manner and played around his fingers as if it was a young kitten.

So, this was the Thunder Blade!

Broken Blade vibrated involuntarily, and flew out of Lin Jie’s hands. It revolved around in the air. After the Thunder Blade left a slim trail of lightning behind it, it was being absorbed by Broken Blade.

Broken Blade stopped after hovering for a few more rounds in the air. There was a light purplish gleam on its surface, and slight traces of lightning flashed past occasionally. The blood reservoir, which was previously full from absorbing the horn of the Light Unicorn Lion was being emptied. It seemed like one would have to feed it with other precious materials before he could continue to find the third Blade segment.

Broken Blade floated up a few hundred meters and circled the air longingly as if looking for something. However, in Lin Jie’s eyes, there was nothing else in this Trial Space.

“Come back.” Lin Jie reached out his hands. As if it was a sentient object, Broken Blade made a few slight taps in the air in response to Lin Jie’s words and flew back into Lin Jie’s hands.

Caressing Broken Blade softly, Lin Jie checked its attributes in anticipation.

Gold Broken Blade!

Lin Jie’s brows jumped. Compared to his previous life, the Gold Broken Blade which he wielded now was so much stronger! Especially with the additional effect—though it was nowhere as powerful as the 60% damage provided by Flame Boost, there was as high as a 70% chance of numbing effect! This meant that if one was lucky enough, he could numb his targets throughout the fight!

Equipping the Gold Broken Blade, Lin Jie’s Stats was dramatically transformed!

Lin Jie’s Stats reached a new height with the upgraded Broken Blade, coupled with the Strength points awarded in the Trial Space!

“Eighteen Massacres, do you think you can ward off my attacks now?” Lin Jie curved up his lips.

Between Broken Blade’s strikes, one could faintly hear some thunder sounds!

“Send me out of here!” shouted Lin Jie.

Right after his words, a faint purplish space spiral immediately appeared in front of Lin Jie. Lin Jie took a look at the space where Broken Blade previously hovered about, bowed respectfully and then turned to leave.

He had wanted to return to City of Light after leaving the dungeon. However, the space spiral in the Trial Space had directly sent him back—in this case, he was able to save a returning scroll. Lin Jie looked down at Broken Blade, summoned the Tiger King and decided to return to Stranglethorn Vale to kill the Gorilla King. After all, Gorilla King Mukla would also spawn a rare mount. In addition, the banana tree which Mukla regarded as its precious possession was also a good choice of material to enhance Broken Blade.

After he left the Trial Space, his communication device started ringing violently!

“Fu Sheng! Fu Sheng! Are you online?”

“Hurry, come to Moldolita Forest! There’s a Level 35 Sub-Legendary creature refreshed here! Hurry, come over!”

Lin Jie’s pupils constricted. A Sub-Legendary creature? How was that possible?

Riding the Tiger King, Lin Jie immediately rushed towards Moldolita Forest. Many players had already rushed towards the forest in disbelief too, and the trail was crowded and blocked by all the players!

ROAR—

The Tiger King let out a roar impatiently. Many Knights’ white horses immediately cowered back in fear and didn’t dare to move a step! The Tiger King made a big leap and soon disappeared into the horizons.

————————

Moldolita Forest.

The eagle which was the size of houses pranced around angrily in the forests. Its screeches were shrill, and every time it flapped its huge wings, the bloody holes on its body would spew out blood. This blood sent off lightning, and players who came in contact with the blood would be numbed immediately!

[Thunder Silver Feathered Eagle]: Level 35 Sub-Legendary Overlord, Health Points: ???

No one would have expected such a Sub-Legendary Overlord, which was totally out of range of all the players’ levels, to appear here!

However, there was a dumb Hunter who kept shouting that this was his mission’s monster, and soon NPCs would be sent here to hunt this monster. All the anxious guilds’ Chairmen beat him up hurriedly and threw him out of the crowd.

Multiple players were gathered below the Thunder Silver Feathered Eagle! They had been here for 10 plus hours, and after attacking for so long, the Thunder Silver Feathered Eagle still had not revealed its health points—all the players’ attack could only cause one damage point! Meanwhile, when it flapped its wings slightly, the thunderous winds would tear apart the players’ bodies and kill them instantly!

Something worth mentioning was that during this type of large-scale fight for a map’s Boss, there was someone who did not plan to be involved—Brotherhood!

The solo players in Brotherhood understood their abilities very well, and they also knew the importance of this Boss to the other guilds. Thus, who would bother to fight for this Boss, knowing that they only had a slim chance of taking it down even if they died multiple times? However, many just liked to join in the fun. Other than that, some of Brotherhood’s members were given huge rewards to form temporary teams to guard the outer rim of the battlefield, so as to reap whatever benefits they could get.

The most outstanding group near the eagle was the recently formed ‘Steel Alliance’ by the three guilds: Triumphant Midnight, Angel Descent and the Hunter’s Guild. As the bigger guilds, who could defeat them if they combined their forces?

Yet this time round, it seemed like they finally met a tough nut to crack.

Excluding all the solo players and third-class guilds, there was one strong enemy standing in front of them!
