Chapter 201 - The First Encounter
War Spirit Knife and his fellows were all astonished by the incredible speed of the Lightning Chain. Without any possibility to react, seven players were pierced through and were seckilled.
“A single skill seckilled seven of our people?”
“This is Thor’s power? Horrifying!”
“Retreat! You can never get him!”
War Spirit Knife shouted from the back. War Spirit Xiaoxin, who was rushing ahead, was still frozen and did not realize what was happening. With a flash of thunder light, he saw seven people seckilled around him. The rest of them were totally scared and withdrew back to the safety area at once.
“Come on! Huaxia Zone cowards! You can’t stay in the safety area for your whole life!”
Thor was calm and easy as he did nothing to stop War Spirit Xiaoxin and his fellows from retreating back to the safety area. He just waited outside of the area, sneering at them with his handsome but distant expression.
“I’ll take this.”
Xiaofeng stepped out from the crowd, and gestured to refuse War Spirit Knife, who was trying to stop him. He went out of the safety area step by step, with his eyes showing calmness.
“You? You’re from the Huaxia Zone?”
Thor had come across Xiaofeng before in the Bonus Area. Since Xiaofeng did not change any of his equipment, Thor recognized him at once.
“Hmph, whoever you are, you’re dying. You come at one go! Don’t waste my time to kill you one by one. Only you? So much trouble!” Thor was waving his amethystine staff with an impatient look.
Xiaofeng said nothing with his calm expression. But those who knew Xiaofeng all realized that he had become serious.
Xiaofeng waved his therapeutic scepter in hand. The therapeutic scepter was a little shorter than Thor’s amethystine staff, but Xiaofeng’s gesture was almost the same as Thor’s. At this very moment, the four BUFF’s lights flickered around Xiaofeng, who suddenly accelerated and rushed at Thor.
“Life Blessing! Weapon Blessing! Courage Blessing! Protective Blessing!”
“Ding! You have received the Life Blessing from ‘Dad’. Your Health Points increase by 320 points! The BUFF lasts for 60 seconds!”
“Ding! You have received the Weapon Blessing from ‘Dad’. Your ATN increases by 410 points! The BUFF lasts for 60 seconds!”
“Ding! You have received the Courage Blessing from ‘Dad’. Your INT increases by 346 points! The BUFF lasts for 60 seconds!”
“Ding! You have received the Protective Blessing from ‘Dad’. Your DNF increases by 60 points! Your MGD increases by 56 points! The BUFF lasts for 60 seconds!”
Thor was a mage, a profession that was weak in close combat. And this was a similar case with Xiaofeng. Though Xiaofeng was a priest, he also had limited long-range attack skills, which also meant being weak in close combat.
“Hmph!”
Xiaofeng was moving quite fast, but Thor was not flurried at all, waving his amethystine staff and launching a thunder light chain, directly striking Xiaofeng.
“Shhh!”
The thunder light chain flashed from Thor’s amethystine staff at Xiaofeng like a beast swooping down to bite. All of a sudden, the thunder light was almost striking Xiaofeng’s face.
But Xiaofeng just tilted his head a little, easily avoiding the thunder light chain. It looked like the thunder light chain was so afraid of him that it had given way for Xiaofeng by itself.
“Hmm?”
Thor was a little surprised, and then, for the first time, he stared at Xiaofeng seriously.
Xiaofeng’s face clouded because the danger notice after parrying did not emerge. But a damage indicator appeared along with a numb feeling at his neck.
“-83!”
Xiaofeng’s Health Points dropped sharply. His total Health Points were only 800, and this strike reduced them by 10%!
What an attack!
Xiaofeng’s complexion became even worse. He was pretty sure that he had avoided the thunder light chain. But the chain had gone back like a cobra, turning back its head and biting its enemy’s neck.
Xiaofeng was not the only one surprised. Thor was stunned no less than Xiaofeng was as he waved his amethystine staff again, producing three thunder lights that emerged over Xiaofeng’s head.
“Clack!”
Three thunder lights suddenly appeared out of the sunny sky, striking at Xiaofeng one after another, like God’s punishing hands.
Xiaofeng’s body seemed to twist when his steps became confusing as he ran to and fro, continuously changing his directions. Fortunately, all three thunder lights only hurt his heels.
“-37!”
“-32!”
“-29!”
However, three damage indicators still emerged over Xiaofeng’s head, with another 10% of his Health Points reduced. Though the thunder did not directly strike him, its cracks on the ground produced a static-electricity field around Xiaofeng, which also caused damage.
Xiaofeng’s complexion had changed from cloudy to stormy. Fortunately, his agility points were high. Since Thor was not away from the safety area, Xiaofeng quickly reached him.
Thor could not remain calm over this any longer. He stepped back and waved his amethystine staff several times. At the moment, a few thunder lights, like electric snakes, crept from Thor to Xiaofeng on the ground.
When Xiaofeng was almost side by side with Thor, he suddenly rose up into the air, waving his therapeutic scepter at Thor to attack. At the same time, with his Giant Golden Hammer appearing in his hand replacing the therapeutic scepter, Xiaofeng smashed Thor with the huge hammer like a God of War.
Thor’s handsome face had a stunned look. Thin but intense thunder light climbed up to his body, which felt like an electric shock. And then, all the thunder light exploded wildly, creating an extremely bright light. Standing within the light, Thor used a flashback to move himself 10 meters away, getting out of the skill range of the Hammer of Judgment.
“Miss!”
In the meantime, the snake-like thunder on the ground suddenly rose up and pounced on Xiaofeng in the air.
“-51!”
“-33!”
“-24!”
“-40!”
At once, Xiaofeng’s Health Points almost decreased to half.
Xiaofeng stopped and checked the Health Points over his and Thor’s heads, who was 10 meters away from him. He said nothing and stayed calm, but he didn’t continue to fight.
Thor did the same, and just stood 10 meters away from Xiaofeng, staring at him calmly.
The quick fight had made both of them realize the other’s strength. It seemed that Thor had held the upper hand, but he was almost as nervous as Xiaofeng.
“You’re good. It seems that I don’t need to kill you so soon. It’ll be a good idea to let you grab some points first, so I can get a better harvest.”
Finally, Thor initiated the talk, looking at Xiaofeng arrogantly.
“Is it?”
Xiaofeng sneered, staring at Thor to catch every subtle move he made.
“It’s just a couple of hours since the event began. I have absolutely enough time to spend with you.”
Thor was also sneering. Thunder light emerged around his body again. With a flicker, he flashbacked to somewhere further away from Xiaofeng and left. Thor showed them his back, and did not even give War Spirit Knife and his fellows a glance.
“Master Healer!”
War Spirit Knife and others rushed toward Xiaofeng right away with great worry.
“I’m OK. Don’t confront him. That guy is dangerous.”
Xiaofeng spoke to War Spirit Knife and others while shaking his head, then refilled his Health Points with Holy Light.
Actually, Xiaofeng did not bother to emphasize it. War Spirit Knife and the others had deeply known how horrid Thor was.
He was just like his name, Thor—the thunder god in Scandinavian mythology.
