Thank you everyone for your concern. I arrived home this afternoon. Thank you!

Chapter 155 Fierce Clash!

Li Xia, who is 1.85 meters tall, and Nergigante, who is 18.5 meters tall, stand facing each other.

The flute music played by the charcoal-covered man hiding in the back grew increasingly passionate.

Upon reaching the highest point, Li Xia's figure suddenly transformed into a black streak, rushing towards the direction of the Extinction Dragon.

The Extinction Dragon's bright yellow, snake-like pupils were filled with icy killing intent, and its massive left claw tore through the air as it slammed towards Li Xia.

These claws are over a meter wide; if they land a solid blow, the victim would be severely injured, if not killed.

The giant claw roared in and tore apart the afterimage left by Li Xia in place.

Its true form had already leaped high onto the top of Nergigante's head, using the momentum of its forward charge to bend its entire body like a bow.

Holding the spear in both hands, the muscle fibers, tougher than steel wire, tensed instantly, causing the whole body to spring back violently.

Under such immense force, even the gun barrel bent in the still night.

The spear tip, blazing with boiling white flames, crashed down with the force of splitting a mountain.

To the apostles watching from afar, it appeared as if a white arc of rainbow light had appeared above the head of the Nergigante.

The sharp whistling sound of the wind could be heard even from a great distance.

At such close range, Nergigante had no way to dodge.

Its eyes were filled with ferocity, and it actually lowered its head, then, in a split second, used its pair of thick, spiral-like horns to thrust upwards.

At this critical moment, Nergigante chose not to defend, but to trade blows!

But Li Xia's eyes also held a chilling ruthlessness, and he still smashed it down without regard for anything else.

"Oh!"

Amidst the deafening impact, the white flames formed by true qi scattered and flew away, and pale white bone spurs suddenly grew from the back of the Extinction Dragon before the impact.

Although the newly grown bone spurs are not very hard, they still absorbed some of the force of the impact.

Terrifying combat intelligence! This monster is completely trying to lure Li Xia into trading blows with it!

The spear's blade tore through its hard outer skin, and then the shaft slammed down heavily. The immense blunt force penetrated the skin and shattered the shallow flesh beneath.

The once hard, steel-like surface now had a strange, soft feel to it, clearly indicating that the area struck by the gun barrel had turned into rotten flesh.

A low, painful howl escaped the Nergigante's throat, but the intense pain only fueled its ferocity.

In the rush, the two horns that were thrust upwards suddenly gained an extra three points of force.

"Qiang————!"

Before the sharp horn even touched the skin, a layer of fine, dark red dragon scales instantly materialized.

The spot where it was stabbed suddenly lit up, and countless sparks flew everywhere.

"Whoosh!"

Under immense force, Li Xia's body was sent flying backward like a cannonball.

True Qi circulated throughout his body, and the Soaring Technique suddenly erupted for a moment, as if a pause button had been pressed, and he steadily stopped in mid-air.

Li Xia lowered his head, and bright red blood was flowing out of the hole in his chest.

The blood stained the dragon scales, reflecting the surrounding firelight, making them appear even more eerie.

The first round has ended, with neither side gaining an advantage.

Li Xia, with a hole in his chest, still had his spear stuck diagonally in his back, piercing the Nergigante.

They all chose to slow down and think of solutions.

Its body slowly descended, finally stopping about six or seven meters above the ground, exactly level with the head of the Nergigante.

Li Xia stretched out his hand, and the silence of the night transformed into specks of light that suddenly dissipated before gathering in his palm.

The black charcoal flute music became low and urgent, like a lull in a great battle, where both sides were gathering strength and preparing for something.

[You have received healing from the Healing Flute, which will restore 15% of your health within 1 minute.]

The injury to the chest is not considered a serious injury. Given that the body's self-healing ability is already quite good, 15% of health is enough to heal the wound.

The rapid division of cells caused a sharp rise in local temperature, and wisps of white smoke escaped from the wound and drifted into the air.

From a distance, it looks as if clouds and mist are rising from his body and surrounding him.

Li Xia looked at Nergigante and found that Nergigante was also looking at him, and the wound on its back was healing at an alarming speed.

There was just a white mark on the black surface.

Hmm. I've seen their eyes; they're basically the same type of opponent.

A powerful physique, exceptional fighting skills among its kind, and terrifying regenerative abilities.

Even when they fight, their choices are similar; they are not afraid of getting injured, and some are even happy to trade injuries with their opponents.

They secretly had another trick up their sleeve.

He hid dragon scales within himself, and after exterminating the dragon, he hid bone spikes.

Li Xia stared at the Nergigante and pondered for a while. Judging from the previous exchange, it would be difficult to hunt down the Nergigante.

Because both sides have excellent mobility, just as Nergigante couldn't stop me if I wanted to leave.

If Nergigante wants to escape, it can simply endure the damage and leave.

9899100!

As if they were telepathically connected, the moment their health was fully restored, they charged at each other once again.

This time, however, both sides engaged in fewer probing and feints, instead attempting to find a way to defeat each other through genuine head-on confrontation.

The Nergigante is enormous and incredibly powerful, while Li Xia excels in agility and a wide variety of skills.

The deafening crash and bursts of light, mixed with white Qi, shimmered like fireworks on the back of the Lava Dragon.

Amidst the rising air currents and scattered dust, two figures could be seen colliding and dodging.

I tried to look more closely, but it was already too blurry to see clearly.

The apostles at the last line of defense were stunned, staring blankly at the boiling battle scene hundreds of meters away.

"boom--"

Stones blasted from the battlefield whistled across hundreds of meters before crashing heavily against the walls.

The loud noise made all the apostles tremble involuntarily.

As they looked at the stone embedded in the rock wall, riddled with fine, spiderweb-like cracks, they felt a chill run straight up their heads.

Too scary!

This is just the aftermath of the battlefield's collapse. How intense and ruthless would those two be if they really fought?

"Is this... still human? Is this some kind of ancient dragon in bipedal human form?"

"No way, are second-tier monsters this powerful? To fight an ancient dragon like this, how strong must their bodies be? How high must their attributes be?"

An apostle carrying a shield muttered indignantly:

"I remember many powerful monsters have different templates than us, right? Based on our strength, Nergigante's strength must be at least over 100, right?"

"100? Are you kidding me? Ancient Dragon template, Overlord level! Note that there's no prefix, it's not just a regional overlord, it's an overlord!"

The apostle wearing glasses adjusted them; it appeared to be some kind of equipment.

"According to calculations, strength should be at least 150-200 points, but strength alone is useless; dexterity is not a special ratio."

The reason for using the monster template is to let the apostles assess whether they can fight it. As long as their dexterity, spirit, and intelligence are not overwhelming, they can at least fight it.

Just as bears possess strength several times that of an average person, but dexterity roughly the same, a skilled hunter can still kill a bear using melee weapons.

"By the way, has anyone figured out that person's stats? I'll offer 50 points to have it checked!"

"coming!"

[Apostle #**** has launched a crowdfunding campaign! Crowdfunding goal: 1500 points]

Crowdfunding complete!

The apostles eagerly opened the panel, but after just one glance, they couldn't help but frown.

He then launched into a tirade of profanities:

"Damn it! What a swindler!"

Chapter 156 Our Hearts Are Connected!

"No way, you're selling something with question marks all over the panel? You're a swindler!"

"Good grief, even the skill names are mostly question marks, is the reconnaissance class any good?!"

The apostle who initiated the crowdfunding campaign, his face full of disdain, shouted emphatically:

"What are you yelling about? At a distance of several hundred meters, it's already quite good that you can detect this little bit. If you don't believe me, try it yourselves. If you can even find a name, you'll be considered amazing!"

The apostles were speechless, but had to admit that what he said was true.

The detection skill is greatly affected by distance; being able to detect objects at a distance of several hundred meters is indeed very impressive.

Their gaze lingered for a moment on the panel filled with "?", then they looked at the Nergigante and Li Xia, who were still locked in fierce combat, with extremely complicated expressions.

The apostles watched silently for a while before one of them said quietly:

"Dragon Slayer, Team Killer, Arena Top 100. Arena Top 100 players are that powerful?"

"Shit!"

Someone scoffed: "This guy is definitely top ten level, he just hasn't competed yet. You can't skip a place in the top 100, so some people aren't in a hurry to compete."

"Could it be the number one player in the second tier?"

The apostle who had previously scoffed shook his head and added leisurely:

"The gap between the top ten is sometimes greater than that between the 10th and 100th, but this is still a battle that we rarely see. Take a good look, at least you can see the direction for the future from these top experts."

Those who resemble others die, those who imitate others live. "

"hold head high--"

The Nergigante roared with its head raised, a scene that had already occurred several times.

Li Xia instinctively crouched down, and his body emitted a white light.

See you!

Unexpectedly, the "See Through" skill was not triggered.

Li Xia's heart sank.

It was a feint! That was just a normal shout, a trap set by exploiting preconceived notions!

The battle intelligence of Nergigante is terrifying!

As expected, Nergigante raised its head once again, and this time a roar containing terrifying power began to spread from its mouth.

A strange feeling of numbness and dizziness spread through my body.

[You have been affected by 'Roar' and will be in an abnormal state where you cannot move for 2 seconds.]

[Eight-Nine Arcane Arts: Primordial Unity has been triggered, reducing abnormal status effects by 55%, but you will be in a state of abnormal status for 0.9 seconds.]

It's an extremely short 0.9 seconds, so short that it's only enough for an average person to blink twice.

But in such a battle, there is enough time to launch an attack, an attack that could potentially turn the tide of battle.
