Chapter 2073 Player's Head Smash

[Lion King Orc Headhammer/Legendary]

The meteor hammer, crafted from the skull and spine of the Lion-orc hero who participated in numerous legendary, mythical, and apocalyptic battles, including the Battle of the Nemean Giants, still bears witness to his fierce fighting to the very end.

"This is really quite a perverse sense of humor."

Depp swung the lion-head meteor hammer in his hand, unable to resist the urge to complain.

Normally, players kill monsters and use them as materials, but in this extremely free world, it's not uncommon for monsters to kill players and use them as materials.

Just like how higher-level monsters drop better materials, sometimes even as good as top-grade ingredients that can be made into a delicious dish with just a little processing, the materials dropped by high-level monsters can be made into an excellent weapon with just a little processing.

The same applies to players. Although players, as the Blessed Ones, are set to turn to dust immediately upon death, just like there are puppet trees that can manipulate player corpses, there are also monsters with special execution actions that can tear off parts of players' bodies as loot.

Most of the time they are just decorations. Only when the player is very strong and has a very high reputation will they be able to be turned into weapons like we are now.

Depp could basically imagine the situation. This angry beast called the Skullbreaker probably liked to crush other people's heads as an execution, and Huo Luo, as the top LV99 player, naturally had an indestructible head. As a result, the other party squeezed it, and hey, it was a good head, so he tore it off and used it as a weapon, and a legendary weapon at that.

If the skill ceiling for blacksmiths hadn't been raised, making it possible to forge legendary equipment, many people would probably be tempted, even if it meant risking their lives.

To be honest, Depp himself was quite tempted. The difficulty of crafting a legendary weapon is definitely greater than the difficulty of tearing off the skull of this Skullcutter.

We need to capture this skull-crusher and then set up a production line...

"No, no, let's just kill you all as soon as possible. No demand, no harm."

Depp forcefully suppressed this tempting thought, and swung his lion-headed meteor hammer at high speed, smashing it into the face of Earthshaker Gorush.

Golash the Earthshaker is a tough, thick-skinned rhino orc with what could be described as biological armor. His flesh is of very poor quality, and only attacks to the face can cause effective damage.

The Earthshaker Golash has a rhinoceros horn on his face, a powerful weapon of rhinoceros-like monsters. It has extremely high hardness and a triangular cone shape that provides super stability.

If you attack the face of a rhinoceros-like monster indiscriminately, you are likely to collide with its horn, damaging your weapon. To destroy the horn, you can only use continuous cutting attacks; simple slashing and blunt force attacks are extremely ineffective.

Conversely, only the rhinoceros horn is threatening on the face of rhinoceros-like monsters.

Depp swung his lion-headed meteor hammer in a powerful arc, striking Earthshaker Gorush in the side of the face. The impact sent Gorush's teeth flying.

While not particularly harmful, it is extremely humiliating. Few people can tolerate the humiliation of having their teeth knocked out, let alone a rhinoceros-like monster that is already extremely prone to losing control. After becoming an enraged beast general, it almost loses all reason.

"Aaaahhhh——"

With a roar, Earthshaker Golash, massive and heavy, his seemingly clumsy body was incredibly flexible. He twisted his body and neck like a dragon, relentlessly pursuing Depp with his rhinoceros horns, determined to crush him.

Depp, keeping pace with Earthshaker Gorush's rhythm, led him into the pit where Mad Dog Mogrum and Skullcrusher Kahnzura were. Earthshaker Gorush's title is Earthshaker, and it's obvious without even needing identification that his special moves, besides the Super Horn Strike, are the Super Stomp. Even with Earthshaker Gorush's furious kick, which was also at LV350 or higher, it didn't instantly obliterate Mad Dog Mogrum and Skullcrusher Kahnzura, indicating that these two were indeed resilient and tough.

They weren't dead, but they weren't in good shape either. The mad dog Mogrum, who took the stomp of Earthshaker Gorush head-on, was the most seriously injured, the spot where he was stepped on was flattened. The skullcrusher Kahnzula, who was used as a cushion, wasn't much better off, as he was buried in the ground and fell into a coma, not expected to wake up anytime soon.

Depp deliberately lured Earthshaker Gorush toward the positions of Mad Dog Mogrum and Skullcutter Kahnzura, hoping to use Gorush's earth-shaking hooves to deliver a few more kicks to Mogrum and Kahnzura, ideally killing them.

But things were clearly not that simple. The heavy footsteps of Earthshaker Gorush directly woke up Mad Dog Mogrum and Skullcrusher Kahnzula.

The two enraged beastmen, dragging their half-crippled bodies, struggled to their feet. Instead of fleeing, they joined forces with Earthshaker Golash to launch a pincer attack.

“Fool.” Angel shook his head.

The premise that ants can kill an elephant is that there is an overwhelming size difference between the ants and the elephant, and the elephant cannot withstand the ants' attack.

The premise that "good dogs are not as good as bad dogs" is also that the size difference between good dogs and bad dogs is not too large.

These three enraged beast generals are all five-meter-tall monsters, giving them an overwhelming advantage over Depp, who is only 1.7 meters tall. Therefore, when facing Earthshaker Gorush, Depp chose to move around and avoid taking the initiative to attack.

However, this is on a one-on-one basis. When the three Angry Beasts attack together, they have to shorten their attack range, otherwise their attacks will hit their partner before they hit Depp.

Just like it is now.

Earthshaker Gorush suddenly raised his neck, intending to smash Depp with his rhino horn, but Depp feinted and swayed, causing Earthshaker Gorush's rhino horn to pierce the mad dog Mogroom.

If it were just Gorush the Earthshaker, it wouldn't matter if it missed; its entire body has incredibly tough skin, and even its neck can withstand sword strikes. However, to prevent Mogrum the Mad Dog from being gored to death by its own rhinoceros horn, Gorush the Earthshaker had to stop forcibly.

Although Earthshaker Gorush stopped in time, the charging mad dog Mogrum ran into the rhino's horn and was knocked away.

Depp seized upon this huge opening and slammed the Earthshaker Gorush's effective striking point other than his face—the inside of his joint.

The Earthshaker Golash's body went limp, and the heavy mountain of flesh collapsed toward the Skullcrusher Kahnzula.

With its super-strong grip, the Skullbreaker Karnzula, capable of easily crushing enemy skulls, is helpless against the Earthshaker Golash. To avoid being crushed half to death, it can only roll and dodge in a sorry state.

thump—

Earthshaker Gorush fell to the ground in a sorry state, and Mogrum the Mad Dog struggled half-dead. Only Skullcrusher Kahnzula remained standing intact.

Facing three perfectly large, level 350+ Angry Beast Generals, Depp didn't use a single skill from beginning to end. He relied solely on positioning and appropriate attacks to make the three Angry Beast Generals deal tons of damage to each other.

However, Depp's weakness is still quite obvious: he is held back by his own profession and equipment, handing over the power to deal effective damage to the enemy.
