Full health is the kill threshold, no matter if you're a god or a demon!

"roar--!"

He let out a deep roar, his right arm muscles bulged like a steel noose, and the giant axe in his hand, carrying immense power and dazzling lightning, slashed out diagonally from bottom to top!

"BOOM!!!"

The axe blade sliced ​​through the air, leaving a clear afterimage trail of burning lightning! A fan-shaped, blue-white lightning shockwave, over ten meters wide, swept wildly forward in the fan-shaped area like a lightning blade flying close to the ground!

The five or six crystallized burrowing worms that were hit first had no time to dodge! Their crystallized carapaces, which were strong enough to withstand the slashing of swords and blades, were as fragile as glass in the face of this shockwave containing the power of thunder!

"Snap! Pfft!"

The carapace instantly turned black and shattered! The mangled insect corpse, carrying the stench of burning and sparks of electricity, flew backward, crashed into the rock wall, and turned into a puddle of charred, smoky mud!

One strike clears the area in front!

On his left, three burrowing insects seized the opportunity to pounce on his thick calves from a tricky angle, their sharp crystalline teeth aiming at the joints.

The towering bear-man didn't even look down. The muscles in his left arm were bulging, and his left-hand giant axe was held horizontally to his side at a seemingly clumsy but actually exquisite angle, like swinging a lightning shield!

"Clang! Sizzle—!"

The Thunder Giant suddenly raised his right leg and slammed it down!

"Thump—!!!"

The ground trembled violently! A shockwave, emanating from the soles of his feet, exploded in a ring, mixing with debris and lightning! The three burrowing worms were immediately immobilized.

Immediately afterwards, the Thunder Giant roared and swung its giant axe to both sides of its body at the same time!

"Boom! Boom!"

Two giant lightning whirlwinds, rotating and spreading in opposite directions, suddenly appeared around him!

Within the whirlwind, countless tiny lightning blades, like a meat grinder, frantically cut, tore, and electrocuted everything within range!

……

"What kind of monster is this? Could it be a BOSS?" Liu Nian wondered excitedly.

This sense of oppression, this battle might, absolutely deserves the title of a regional leader! Who knows, maybe some top-tier items will drop!

So he moved closer and finally saw the name above the monster's head:

【Lv.99 Thunderclaw - Raging Mane】.

Liu Nian was taken aback.

"Thunderclaw - Raging Mane?" This doesn't sound like a boss's name; it sounds more like an ID?

An absurd yet increasingly intense thought flashed through his mind like lightning.

"Hiss—!" Liu Nian couldn't help but gasp, his pupils contracting slightly. "Could this be... a player?!"

As if confirming his conjecture, the Thunder Giant, who had just cleaved the last burrowing worm leader in two with a ferocious thunderous leap, seemed to be in high spirits due to the exhilarating battle. He leaned on his twin axes, tilted his head back, and let out a deafening roar full of catharsis and pleasure:

"Aaaaaahh ...

The sound was like thunder, echoing in the empty underground space, causing some crystal powder to fall from the crystal cluster where Liu Nian was hiding.

"Damn! It really is a player!" Liu Nian had no more doubts. Judging from the other party's appearance, he was most likely a player from the mysterious Demon Bear Clan!

Liu Nian had some impression of this race, but not much. He only knew that they belonged to the "Order Faction" in the Six Races Ascension War, and that they were rather xenophobic. It was said that they had a unique talent for defending cities, and that their attributes would be explosively enhanced in their own territory.

But this is the first time I've ever seen a Demon Bear Clan player in person!

The berserk fighting style, terrifying physical strength, and skillful use of lightning energy displayed by the Demon Bear player in front of him... the visual impact and aura instantly reminded him of the berserker brute from the Dragon Abyss Guild—Wang Tugang.

But the "Thunder Claw - Raging Mane" in front of him, with his huge size and the destructive power of the thunderous force emanating from his body, made his overall aura and sense of oppression much stronger than Wang Tugang's!

"This must be a top player from the Demon Bear Clan!" Liu Nian thought to himself with a chill.

He had previously encountered and even killed elite units or leaders of the chaotic factions such as pigmen, ratmen, and goblins, many of whom were powerful.

But Liu Nian felt that none of them were as good as the Demon Bear player in front of him!

In the arena, Thunderclaw Furymane, who had just finished his battle, suddenly turned his sharp bear eyes, crackling with electricity, toward where Liu Nian was.

He seemed to possess some kind of beast-like extraordinary intuition; he was so close that Liu Nian's presence had not escaped his keen senses!

"Who's there?!"

A deep, resonant shout exploded! The lightning energy that had just subsided became active again on his body and battle axe, crackling and popping menacingly.

Now that it has been discovered, there is no point in hiding it anymore.

Liu Nian let out a soft breath and slowly walked out from behind the crystal cluster, his movements calm and unhurried.

"Just passing by," Liu Nian said, his voice steady and devoid of emotion.

At the same time, he was also scrutinizing the other person more closely.

The closer you get, the more oppressive the demonic bear player becomes! His massive, towering body, like that of a giant, exudes an unshakeable sense of weight just by standing there.

"A human player?" A hint of surprise flashed in Thunderclaw's eyes, as if he hadn't expected to encounter a lone human here.

But this surprise was fleeting, immediately replaced by excitement!

He has never fought against a human player before!

He grinned, revealing gleaming white fangs and a wild smile: "A human player actually managed to get in there alone? Looks like you're not one of those fledglings who just chatter in the safe zone... You're a true warrior!"

His massive bear paws gripped the axe handle tightly, and the crackling lightning around them grew even more violent.

"Excellent! Excellent!" His voice trembled slightly with excitement. "Come, come! Stranger, take a few blows from me! Let me see just how capable this human is, and whether he deserves the name of a warrior!"

Before the words were even finished!

The demon bear player slammed his enormous foot into the ground! His massive body, over three meters tall, unleashed a speed and agility completely disproportionate to his size!

His entire body transformed into a humanoid lightning bolt completely enveloped in dazzling blue-white lightning, leaving a long trail of lightning as he hurtled toward Liu Nian!

At the same time, he raised two giant double-edged battle axes, crackling with lightning, high above his head, poised to cleave Mount Hua in two! Even before the axe blades arrived, the violent lightning pressure and the terrifying force that tore through the air were already pressing down on Liu Nian as if they were tangible! It seemed as if he wanted to shred Liu Nian into dust!

"Tsk, so reckless? Attacking on sight?"

Liu Nian was speechless. This Demon Bear player was quite warlike!
