Super God of War Chapter 452 - 452 Lin Jie VS Tomorrow Nigh

452 Lin Jie VS Tomorrow Nigh

That person was Tomorrow Night, a Bandit that was shorter than 130cm. Ηe was not a Dwarf but actually a human. It was due to Tomorrow Night being too short in the real world, which resulted in him having such a height in the game.

Yesterday Morning, who followed closely behind, was as tall as 220cm, he had thinning hair, a stuck-out mouth, and a chin like that of an ape—he looked just like a dried monkey.

Yesterday Morning panted heavily from running and put his hands on his knees to support his body weight. He shouted, “Hey, I say Tomorrow Night, could you run slower? Don't you know that I don't have a good physique? It's too freaking tiring.”

“Hmph.” Tomorrow Night sneered but remained silent. This was inside the game, so no matter how one ran, one's body would not feel tired. The reason why Yesterday Morning was panting heavily was due to him being influenced by his mindset in real life, so he thought he was very tired.

Tomorrow Night activated Scent Searching again and started walking around aimlessly. He repeatedly sniffed as he started to differentiate the scents in the surroundings. His posture was very undignified as he was on all fours and almost touching the ground as he sniffed vigorously all around. Although it might be a little disgusting mentioning this, the part where the smell was the strongest was people's feet. Thus, it was not unreasonable that the game had designed it like that.

Suddenly, he stopped moving, and a smile could be seen on his face. He instantly thrust his two daggers out, piercing towards the air. Those two daggers were a Dark Gold Set [Addictive Mana Daggers]. Those two daggers formed a set and would convert damage into random Elemental Damage during each attack. This would catch the opponent off guard and could even let Bandits, this high-damage-output job, to deal damage that could not be blocked by physical defense.

Cold Blood, Backstab, and Eviscerate were all activated!

Tomorrow Night instantly used the Combo Attack of Bandits. That would deal the highest damage as long as those skills hit successfully. Then together with the special effects from his Addictive Mana Daggers and his personal damage output, the target, Lin Jie, would be killed!

However, Tomorrow Night's eyes were full of anticipation as he knew that that person would not be so easily killed by him—he wanted to battle!

“Right on time.”

The reflection of the daggers could be seen in Lin Jie's pupils, but he was abnormally excited. It was just like giving a thirsty person a drink! Lin Jie just nicely lacked someone to battle with, and someone arrived, not to mention he was an expert! Only by battling with experts could it maximize the increase in Lin Jie's strength and convert the things learned into his true power.

Clink! Clang! Clink!

Lin Jie's eyes were like that of an eagle as he pierced his Broken Blade towards Tomorrow Night's daggers and hit right on the tip of the daggers!

Army Obliteration was instantly activated, and Broken Blade was like a bone-stricken scorpion, sticking the tip of Tomorrow Night's dagger tightly. Then, Lin Jie instantly unleashed the Combo Attack technique!

Lin Jie attacked in order to defend his Broken Blade collided with Tomorrow Night's daggers continuously, which caused their bodies to tremble and forced them to retreat by one step.

-1,029!

-291!

Two different values popped up from their heads. In the first round of battle, many attacks from both sides were nullified, but Lin Jie's damage output was much higher.

“Combo Attack?” Tomorrow Night's eyes, which were in a daze, instantly lit up as he licked his lips. He then smiled and kept his daggers in front of Lin Jie. He flipped his right hand and took out a rusty Bronze dagger.

Lin Jie tilted his head and looked at Yesterday Morning, who stood at the side. Although he was desperate to battle and that person in front of him was his best choice, he would not disregard his safety.

Yesterday Morning glared at Lin Jie. “What are you looking at? Are you thinking that I would ambush you? Haish, I—”

Bang!

A loud sound was heard! Yesterday Morning's forehead instantly swelled up, and he fell down.

Tomorrow Night held a huge purplish-black wooden stick in his hand—that was the super-rare material Dark Ambush Wood. It was the material for forging Dark Gold equipment. When used as a channeling material, it could increase the time the Bandit's Stealth Hit lasted by 10 times when used against characters with levels lower than one. However, once the target received damage, the target would enter a 10-second Invincible state.

Tomorrow Night's level was higher than Yesterday Morning.

“It's fine now.” After Tomorrow Night used it, he threw away the Ambush Wood, which had finished releasing all the dark aura. He then clapped his hands and took out the Bronze dagger once again.

Lin Jie nodded and took out a Silver longsword. He did not have Bronze equipment on him.

Forward Charge!

Rush!

The two continued battling.

Although they did not know each other, their desire for battle was the same! The dagger and longsword clashed, the sound of metal colliding could be instantly heard. As the tips of the blades collided, it was like sparks could be seen in the air, and the sparks from the metal clashing were like thunder and lightning!

Lin Jie's heart sank as he felt the strength from the opponent in his arms, his heart beat faster and faster as his condition was at its peak. He instantly used the Combo Attack technique!

The light in Tomorrow Night's eyes gradually faded and returned to his dazed look, but it was as if his body was as flexible as Crane from Kung Fu Panda. Every strike by his dagger was aimed at Lin Jie's eyes, heart, and lower body… He attacked at tricky angles, and with each attack, his body would also change. Under Lin Jie's observation, he surprisingly realized that Tomorrow Night could deal the maximum damage every time.

Yes! Maximum damage!

Normally, there would be a damage range for attacks, so sometimes during battles between two players with similar strength, the one who could deal more maximum damage would decide the result of the battle most of the time!

However, how could one maintain their damage output? Relying on luck? Of course not. In fact, The New Age was a highly realistic game, so for example, a simple action like thrusting forward, the Damage Dealt by piercing with strength, would naturally be higher than stabbing without doing so!

In Lin Jie's previous life, there had been a famous collection called “Tomorrow Night Bandit's 13 Postures”, it was collated and recorded by Tomorrow Night. It was the 13 postures that were most advantageous to Bandits for them to deal the maximum damage. It had once attracted countless of Bandits to imitate the postures. When the body used strength from the whole body, that would be when the maximum damage was dealt.

In half a minute, the two of them had already exchanged strikes tens of times, and their number of Combo Attacks increased rapidly. A confident smile could be seen on Tomorrow Night as his Combo Attack had already surpassed 40, he was even more powerful than Star Kill!

No matter how strong a Berserker was, how many consecutive strikes could he reach? 20? 30? 40? No matter what, Tomorrow Night's greatest pleasure was battling with different experts and learning from others to enhance oneself.

“Huh?”

Just as Tomorrow Night continued attacking, he suddenly saw Lin Jie slightly squatting down, as if he was a toad. Then Lin Jie leaped up vigorously and pierced his sword straight at Tomorrow Night! Lin Jie's explosive outburst sounded as if his body was tearing through the air—that strike definitely reached the maximum damage value!

“This guy…” Tomorrow Night's pupils constricted.

Lin Jie squinted his eyes slightly as he observed Tomorrow Night's actions. He continuously adjusted his body as he made use of actions like charging, running, and jumping to unleash his body's strength.

In 10 attacks, he could clearly feel the feeling of “maximum damage” in about one attack! Lin Jie remembered such a feeling and carefully engraved it in his heart. As the saying went, “If three walk together, one can be my teacher[1]”, there was still so much more that Lin Jie had to learn!

Tomorrow Night's eyes darkened. He thought in his heart secretly, ‘Such a quick-learning speed! The technique of controlling one's damage was something that I had spent five years trying and perfecting it together with the experiences from many games. Only then I could successfully use it in The New Age. In the first month in The New Age that I had started training, the damage that I dealt was even lesser than normal attacks that did not use the technique. He only took a look and has already understood it?'

Lin Jie's attack was no longer that vicious, but he started to use his body more efficiently. He made use of the momentum produced from dodging, retreating, parrying, and blocking into attacking movements to unleash the effect of “maximum damage”.

In Lin Jie's previous life, he had been a Berserker for seven years, but he had accumulated many questions in his heart. He had seen various different techniques, however, those techniques were already all completed, so it would seem very cool when used. Thus, it made it difficult for one to differentiate. That resulted in Lin Jie's understanding of such things to be very hazy.

Now, he had observed Tomorrow Night's maximum damage technique, which was still immature and yet to be perfected. Therefore, he was enlightened and immediately started using it.

Tomorrow Night's heart sank, his competitiveness had been completely stimulated. The dagger in his palm spun a playful arc before suddenly attacking. Afterimages could be seen on the pathway of the dagger. These afterimages were like real attacks, which pierced into Lin Jie's chest, but the Damage Dealt was negligible since the dagger was a Bronze weapon.

Consecutive strike 50! … 60! … 70! …

Lin Jie smiled. He knew that Tomorrow Night was using Combo Attacks to overpower him. ‘Come at me, let's have a good battle!'

Lin Jie swung his longsword around lightly and used Combo Attack! However, the feeling of attacking players was obviously different from attacking Munjo Ogres as players would use all kinds of actions to prevent one from leaning back so much and would dodge attacks. They would even directly use the skill Immunity! These were all factors that would influence the Combo Attack.

Also, when players were attacked, the knockback, bleeding, and other effects would be much lighter compared to the monsters in Blade Peak Canyon. If they were to be compared to those monsters, which were used to train, then the difficulty for using Combo Attacks against players during battle would increase by a few times.

“Army Obliteration!”

Lin Jie stared at Tomorrow Night's neck and swung his longsword, but Tomorrow Night's neck was like the reflection of the moon on water—it was uncertain as to where he would be and was unable to be hit! Lin Jie moved his body and dashed out violently, successfully landing a hit on Tomorrow Night! Therefore, the Combo Attack was also connected and continued.

Consecutive strike 39! 40! … 49! 50!…

Tomorrow Night looked at the Berserker in front of him in astonishment. Each time the Attack Combo reached a bottleneck, where it was about to be unable to connect or continue it, Lin Jie would always barely follow up with another attack! Although it looked as if he was about to fail each time, he actually connected them!

That was to gradually convert the technique from killing monsters into real battle! Although Lin Jie was unfamiliar with it, with his ability, he still successfully continued the Combo Attack.

Swoosh—

Both of their Combo Attacks had reached 79 simultaneously! Just at that moment, an expression of pain appeared on Tomorrow Night's face, his dagger dealt the last attack before he entered the Stiffening state—he had lost the ability to continue attacking!

Meanwhile, Lin Jie's eyes lit up as to him, just as his opponent stiffened, wasn't it the best opportunity to continue his Combo Attack?

Lin Jie was elated. The number of consecutive strikes instantly surpassed 80 as Tomorrow Night's eyes were filled with disbelief. Lin Jie continued attacking Tomorrow Night's body, and the Combo Attack increased gradually! It was about to surpass the 89-strike bottleneck!

‘The attack can't be connected anymore,' judged Tomorrow Night as he stared at Lin Jie's movements.

Anti-Slash!

Lin Jie turned around, and the momentum from spinning caused the longsword to be swung out again. Tomorrow Night was astonished as a shred of disbelief could be seen in his eyes. He had actually been pierced through by Lin Jie!

Ding~

—'You have killed Tomorrow Night, your evil score +1.'
