The dungeon came, and I became the Archon of the Demon King

Chapter 10 #010 The Chief Executive Officer

The atmosphere was tense, and Chen En would not be surprised when the old man on the opposite side launched an attack.

He silently raised his shield, held the ax tightly, and watched the old man cautiously.

The old man did not attack recklessly.

He didn't use the previous imposing leap and smash, but took a roundabout route, approaching very cautiously little by little.

There was no trace of disdain in his golden one-eyed eyes, and the brilliance refracted from his pupils was extremely fierce. He did not take it lightly, but regarded Chen En as an opponent and treated him cautiously.

is this necessary?

Chen En exhaled lightly, not thinking that he deserved to be so vigilant——

At this moment, the old man attacked!
He keenly caught the distracting thoughts in Chen En's heart. At the moment Chen En's vigilance relaxed a little, he rushed forward like lightning and struck horizontally with a stick!

Chen En was slightly taken aback, but he didn't lose his footing.

The iron rod danced into black lines, and the wind cut his skin. He withstood the pressure and handed out the shield at the most critical moment.

"clang!"

Perfect timing!

There was a crisp impact sound, and the shield counterattack was successfully launched. The old man's full attack was resolved by Chen En. Driven by his skills, the ax in his right hand fell down.

"Well……"

Blood spurted out!

The old man was hit by an ax in the shoulder, and the bone was visible in the injury!

He quickly backed up, opened the distance again, first looked at the wound on his shoulder, and then turned his head to stare at Chen En, his face full of horror: "Unbelievable! You hurt me!"

Chen En, keep silent.

He put the shield in front of him and lowered his body slightly.

unfavorable.

Very unfavorable.

In terms of strength, Chen En will never be the old man's opponent.The shield counterattack effect is not bad, but in the next battle, it will probably not be effective.

Don't get me wrong, it's not that Chen En couldn't catch the opportunity——

Three times of shield counterattack and three successes, this is enough to prove that Chen En has an outstanding talent in the skill of [Shield Counterattack].

He can see the "keys" in the enemy's moves, and can grasp the "perfect" timing. He is a genius of shield counterattack.

only……

To successfully counterattack, not only does Chen En need to perform well, but also the opponent needs to cooperate.

The details are not written in the skill description, but Chen En, who accepted the inheritance, knows more information.

[Shield Counterattack] This skill can only take effect when the enemy "strikes with all its strength"——

If the opponent just feinted and he had a lot of power left, then at the moment Chen En blocked, he could change his attack and kill Chen En.

The old man on the opposite side will not understand this truth.

Under the pressure of all attributes, he doesn't need to attack with all his strength, as long as he maintains a certain intensity of attack and always leaves room for himself to change his moves, Chen En will be exhausted to death.

The thing to do now was, perhaps, to piss him off.

Chen En sneered and said, "How does it feel to be hurt by humans?"

The old man tore a strip of cloth from his tattered robe: "It's okay."

Chen En sneered: "I just became a professional yesterday, and today is my second actual combat."

The old man bandaged the wound with a cloth strip: "Really?"

Chen En simply raised his middle finger: "I think your level is just like this!"

The old man showed disdain: "Continue."

"..."

hateful!

Why is this old man in such a good mood!The ridicule had no effect at all, and it made him bandage the wound!

The old man looked at the speechless Chen En, and the smile on his face gradually became brighter.

He opened his mouth, seemingly wanting to say something—

At this moment, he suddenly jumped high, and the iron rod in his hand fell heavily!

It's this trick again!

And sneak attack!

Chen En was taken aback again. Fortunately, he maintained his basic vigilance, and retreated quickly when he realized that something was wrong, barely avoiding the stick hitting the ground.

But the hasty dodge has already exposed his flaws, and the old man is even more ruthless.

After knocking down with one stick, he maneuvered quickly, clinging to Chen En's side like a ghost or a snake, and swung out another stick.

Is this an all-out attack?

Or feint?
Chen En made a judgment in an instant, and he waved his shield!
"Humph--"

The evil ghost's laughter rang in his ears, the old man's eyes were burning, and the seemingly indomitable horizontal stick suddenly retracted after a blow, and changed to a stab, and the spear-like tip of the stick went straight to Chen En's chest.

Sure enough, it was a feint, he had already decided to change his move!
"..."

Chen En remained calm, and the shield also folded in mid-air.

but--

That's too late.

After the old man unexpectedly hit the ground with his staff, forcing Chen En to show his flaws, the formula for victory has been written.

He guessed that Chen En would also change his tactics, but so what?

His prick had already broken through the shield's defense, and after Chen En missed the "perfect timing" that existed only for a moment, the shield counterattack could not be launched successfully.

This round, it was his victory again!

The old man didn't relax his hands, but his one-eyed eye carefully studied Chen En's complexion, unwilling to miss any subtle expression changes on his face.

"..."

After seeing Chen En's face clearly, the old man noticed something unusual.

Not right.

There was no panic, no annoyance, and no fear on Chen En's face.At this unbearable moment, he actually raised his eyes to carefully examine the expression on the old man's face.

What is he looking at?
Between lightning and flint, the eyes of the two met in the air.

At this moment, the old man finally understood what Chen En was looking at - just like him, Chen En wanted to see panic, annoyance, or fear on the other person's face.

Iron objects entered the body, blood spattered.

The old man suffered from pain in his wrist, and the iron rod came out of his hand, and it slid to a distance of about ten meters, making a crisp sound.

He looked down and saw that Chen En swung the ax in his hand at some point and cut off his right wrist!

The old man was surprised, he stepped back clutching his broken arm, and asked, "When?"

Chen En didn't make any further attacks. He looked at the old man and said calmly, "I know you will definitely focus on my shield. You think the shield counterattack is the only way for me to win, but if I can directly hit you , I don’t need to use the shield to fight back. I swing the shield to cover your vision so that you can’t see the movement of my right hand-I aimed at your wrist from the beginning, so I will hit you first. "

The old man was silent for a while when he heard the words.

As Chen En said, he made a mistake.

He forgot that shields are useless, and the only thing that can really threaten him is the axe.In the previous confrontation, the old man did not have an ax in his field of vision, only a shield.

Chen En took advantage of this. He aimed at the old man's wrist from the very beginning, and under the feint of the shield, the hand ax struck first, breaking his wrist with one blow!
"...Wonderful. I am convinced that I lost."

The old man raised his right hand, looked at the smooth cross-section on his wrist, and showed an ugly smile.

He looked up at Chen En, and said again: "Perhaps this is why you came here, please forgive me for offending you before, Your Excellency the Consul."

This is--

admit defeat?
No, it's not that simple.The right wrist is missing, and it doesn't seem to have much impact on the old man with the iron rod.

His speech was still clear, his expression was still calm, and there was no sign of defeat on his face, he was calm and composed.

Thinking about it again, this old man is very cunning.In previous battles, he would sneak up and play tricks.

Chen En did not relax at all, maintaining a fighting posture.

"Haha! Don't be so nervous, Your Excellency the Consul. This battle is your victory. My life is already at the end of the wind. I have lost in your hands, completely."

The old man sat down on the spot while talking.

He restrained his momentum, relaxed his body, took off the armguard on his right wrist with his left hand, and threw it to Chen En.

Chen En didn't go to pick it up. He looked down at the armguard at his feet and asked, "What is this?"

"A piece of epic equipment. I am penniless, so I present this heirloom to you as a congratulatory gift for you."

"...What the hell are you talking about? Also, who are you? What is this place? Why did I come here?"

The old man teased: "Haha! Your Excellency the Consul, you have a lot of questions."

Chen En frowned deeply: "Please answer."

"I want to answer too, but I don't have time...Leave these questions to you to explore! The only thing I can tell you is that the person who defeats me will become the chief executive officer of this Demon King City! This person is you."

The old man's body slowly faded away.

He looked at Chen En with a trace of relief in his eyes: "I have completed my mission. This is really a lonely, long and difficult time. Your Excellency the Consul, I look forward to your performance, maybe in the future One day...you can bring me back to life. At that time, let's have a drink!"

The old man disappeared, and the runes on the dome fell like stars and merged into Chen En's body.

In the next moment, the hint from the goddess appeared directly in my mind:
