Chapter 49 - Chapter 49 Challenge

Zhang Mu was the first to shout,"Scorpion!" Good job!"

"We won again!"

"Well done!"

"These abnormal freaks deserve it!"

Scorpion pulled out the sleeve blade that was deeply inserted into his eye socket and stood up from the ground. His right hand grabbed the hilt of his chest and forcefully pulled out the sword that had pierced through his body. Just now, it was really a close call. At the critical moment, Scorpion twisted its body and let the sword avoid its vital points. Although it had been pierced through, it still had 8% health left!

Everyone shouted happily.

Fear roared again and again!

Fire was about to spew out of the horseman leader's eyes. He originally wanted to play with the humans, but he didn't expect two of his tribesmen to be killed one after another. One of them was his right-hand man. The captain of the horsemen seemed to have lost patience. He wanted to deal a blow to morale, but it had the opposite effect. He immediately stopped playing the game and roared loudly. He was about to lead sixteen cavalry to surround him immediately. When the humans saw the cavalry spread out and surrounded him, they immediately prepared for battle.

"Woo ah Ao Di…"

The Dreadful Cavalry Captain raised his saber. An invisible force condensed on the blade and was about to slash at Scorpion. A few cavalrymen surrounded him from the side. The scorpions would make people lose face and they would probably dismember them on the spot!

Fear people angry, so ready to kill scorpion on the spot to vent anger!

Scorpion was already isolated outside, and now that he was heavily injured, he didn't have time to retreat!

"Stop!" Zhang Mu sped out of the crowd and stood in front of Scorpion. He held an axe in his left hand and a sword in his right hand. His eyes were as cold as ice. He stared at the Horror Commander." I want to challenge you!" I want to challenge you!"

Zhang Mu shouted and pointed his sword at the captain of the cavalry. The Dreadful Cavalry who wanted to rush forward were all stunned. They could not understand human language, but they understood Zhang Mu's meaning. This was the Dreadful Cavalry's way of challenging.

This human…wanted to challenge the cavalry captain!

The Horror Commander was also stunned.

Zhang Mu stared coldly at the Dreadful Riders and shouted loudly,"Fight me if you have the ability!"

The terrifying cavalry raised their spears and wanted to besiege Zhang Mu.

"Roar!"

The commander roared loudly, and all the cavalrymen stopped. They turned around and looked at the captain with puzzled eyes.

"Woah!"

The horseman commander said a few words, and the cavalrymen looked at each other. In the end, they all retreated and made way for a large area. The horseman commander jumped down from the back of the tall Golden Deinonychus, still holding the saber in his hand. He strode forward, his armor rubbing against each other as he walked. His aura was intimidating.

Then he went to them and said,"Go back."

Scorpion Kong's eyes were emotionless, but he did not move his expression as he stuffed a skill book into his mouth. It was one of the spoils dropped by the elite cavalrymen.

[FF Skill, Sword Slash]. Prerequisite: Strength greater than 20. Class restrictions: Swordsman, Ranger.

The two of them quickly walked out of the party and helped Scorpion back into the camp. The priest went up to heal him.

Zhang Mu used the skill book without moving his expression.

[Sword Slash LV1], FF skill, highest level LV3. Condenses strength and shoots sword qi, dealing 30 attack +80% attack +50% strength at medium range. Cast Time: 0.5 seconds. Cooldown: 20 seconds.

Sword Slash!

A rare mid-range attack skill in the early stages of Warriors. It has excellent damage output and a very short cooldown time. The only drawback is that it is a little slow to release. It is very popular among Warriors.

This book is extremely valuable!

Zhang Mu suddenly jumped out to challenge the cavalry captain, not because he was confident, but because if he didn't do so, he would definitely kill Scorpion in anger. He was trying to save Scorpion. Scorpion had given him a skill at a critical moment, which increased Zhang Mu's chances of winning by a few points. It could be considered as repaying his kindness!

Judging from the current situation, a big battle was inevitable. If he could use provocation to get the strongest enemy to come down from the Dreadclaw Golden Dragon's back and fight Zhang Mu on land, it would undoubtedly be an ideal method. The Dreadful Riders didn't care about humans at all. They had been tricked. This way, they could gain a more favorable battle environment and at the same time buy Scorpion and Fatty some recovery time.

Regardless of the outcome of this battle, it would be beneficial to the upcoming battle!

The horseman commander was very disdainful. He raised his saber and said a few words. He was a full circle stronger than ordinary scary people. He was almost two meters tall, and his entire body was covered in thick metal armor. The saber in his hand was four and a half feet wide, and it was as wide as a palm. It emitted a terrifying cold light. If this saber slashed at people, they would either die or be crippled.

"Come on!"

Zhang Mu gripped his axe and sword tightly.

The Horror Cavalry Leader laughed ferociously, his eyes shining with a cruel light. He grabbed the hilt of the sword with both hands and suddenly swung it in an arc, slashing it heavily on the ground. With a loud boom, a yellow blade light slashed towards Zhang Mu like a flood dragon at an astonishing speed.

A hole was cut in the ground by the strong light!

This FF and skill was called [Earth Splitter], and its damage was very considerable. Although Zhang Mu was fully equipped and had accumulated more than 100 HP with his equipment, if he was hit head-on, even if he was lucky enough not to be killed in seconds, he would basically lose his combat ability.

Zhang Mu jumped aside and energy swept past his feet. His combat boots were hit by the aftershock and a large part of them caved in.

Everyone held their breath because the Dreadful Riders 'attack speed was too fast.

Zhang Mu didn't have time to stand still. His terrifying blade emitted a faint green light again and slashed at Zhang Mu from afar.

"Huff!"

A gust of wind suddenly erupted, and tiny beams of light covered the sky. This skill was called [Chaotic Wind Slash], which created a large number of small wind blades. Because the attack area was large and the speed was extremely fast, it was basically impossible to avoid them.

Zhang Mu's scales were hit by more than ten wind blades. Some of the wind blades cut through his armor directly, leaving quite shallow wounds. This skill was difficult to dodge, and its damage was not strong. It only dealt less than 20 damage in total. Zhang Mu injected a stream of power into his sword from his right hand. The blade emitted a buzzing sound and a sword Qi that was difficult to distinguish with the naked eye slashed out.

"Keke!"

The Horrible Cavalry Leader let out a terrifying grin and swung his broadsword. He also slashed out a sword qi slash. Zhang Mu's sword qi immediately dissipated. Zhang Mu hurriedly turned around and the sword qi brushed past him. Before he could stabilize himself, the cold blade was already slashing at his head. Zhang Mu had no way to dodge. He crossed his axes and swords to block the blade.

Bang!

Zhang Mu's weapon almost flew out of his hand after only one collision. He fell back a few meters, and there was a piercing pain in his wrist, possibly a sprain.

Everyone watching the battle was stunned. From Dreadful Slash to Chaotic Wind Slash, then to Sword Qi, and finally to Swift Slash, all of them were done in one go. If it were an ordinary person, he would have died a long time ago. As expected of a Gold Elite!

Zhang Mu knew that when dealing with enemies stronger than him, no matter how fierce the opponent's attacks were, he must not be suppressed. Because the opponent was stronger, if he lost in terms of momentum, then he would no longer have a chance of winning. Therefore, although Zhang Mu was dealing with a powerful opponent, he was not afraid at all. His short axe and long sword cooperated with each other to launch a counterattack against the Horror Cavalry Leader. Unfortunately, Zhang Mu's strength was too weak and his speed was not fast enough. No matter how he changed, he could not escape from the eyes of the Dreadful Riders.

Zhang Mu quickly took out a health potion and drank it. Then, he activated Speed Skating and cast Gale Slash. Two weapons dragged green light and slashed forward. The Horror Cavalry Leader didn't expect his opponent to suddenly cast a skill. He hurriedly avoided the attack and his axe and sword blade struck his armor. With a crash, a cut was made.

Although it didn't cause too much damage, at least it injured the terrifying person. Zhang Mu's injuries were healing rapidly. The horseman leader was furious. He raised his huge saber and slashed at Zhang Mu. The horseman leader's strength was too strong. Zhang Mu couldn't fight him head-on. He could only dodge or block at a clever angle, removing most of his strength.

Whether it was Du Yuntao's team members or new members, most people didn't know Zhang Mu. Because his appearance was too deceptive, people always underestimated his ability.

Everyone had just been stunned by Scorpion's combat ability. As for Zhang Mu's action of challenging a Gold Elite, although his courage was commendable, he was not optimistic. At this moment, Zhang Mu's combat skills were not inferior to Scorpion's at all. His equipment was even better than Scorpion's. He might even be able to fight against Gold Elite monsters.

Actually, Zhang Mu had to thank the Golden Deinonychus that he encountered yesterday. If it wasn't for the [Swift Boots] that it dropped, Zhang Mu's speed wouldn't have been stronger than that of the Upper Scorpion. He wouldn't have been able to keep up with the movements of the Dreadman Knight Leader. This boot had given him a qualitative increase in combat power. When Zhang Mu dodged the attack by a hair's breadth again, he was afraid that the cavalry leader would use too much force and not be able to stop in time and expose a flaw. Zhang Mu seized the opportunity, and his axe and sword shone with light-[Tornado Slash]!

Zhang Mu's axe struck the giant saber, and with a bang, sparks flew everywhere. The Horror Cavalry Leader was forced back a few steps. The longsword slashed forward fiercely, but was blocked by the Horror Cavalry Leader again. The axe then fell again, and the attack frequency and speed were too fast. This time, it finally hit the Horror Cavalry Leader's chest armor. However, the armor did not even split open. The longsword slashed at his shoulder, causing another series of sparks. The fifth strike landed on the head of the Dreadman Knight Leader. The axe blade collided with the helmet, and the Dreadman Knight Leader was knocked back several steps.

These attacks looked like Zhang Mu had the upper hand, but in reality, they did not achieve much because the defense of the Dreadful Cavalry Leader was too high!

Zhang Mu chased after him with his sword and stabbed it into the abdomen of the Dreadful Knight Leader.

"Roar!"

The Horror Commander suddenly roared loudly. This voice contained some kind of power, causing Zhang Mu to feel his consciousness sink and fall into a temporary daze. The Horror Knight swung his sword over, and the sword was directly sent flying. It rotated a few times in the air and stabbed into the ground more than ten meters away. Fear rode a long step forward and cut Zhang Mu's head with a big knife. Everyone cried out in alarm. If Zhang Mu was hit by the saber, he would definitely die.

At the critical moment, Zhang Mu bent back to dodge, and at the same time, he activated speed skating and slipped out from under the blade. The horseman rider slashed through the air, and the great force cut a deep mark on the ground. The two of them backed away from each other and confronted each other. The Horror Commander had many wounds on his body. He stared at Zhang Mu and laughed coldly.

Zhang Mu passed his short axe from his left hand to his right hand and stared at the Dreadful Cavalry Leader. After a short exchange, Zhang Mu had figured out the combat style of the Dreadful Cavalry Leader. It was undeniable that his opponent surpassed him in all aspects, be it attributes, equipment, or skills. However, this was not to the point where they could not defeat him.

Within two months, Zhang Mu had grown into a top-notch expert. This was partly due to the exploitation of his extremely high combat talent, but the main reason was that Zhang Mu had been fighting with the weak and defeating the strong. He had encountered similar situations more than once. Although he fought dangerously every time, he always won in the end.

The weak against the strong.

He has experience!
