Translator: Noodletown Translations Editor: Noodletown Translations
“What?!” Kellybel glared at Mr. Fang with fury in her eyes.
Even I, a pinnacle stage saint-level master, have been defeated!
With a snort, she pointed at the computer and said, “Try it!”
The elves stood behind and watched.
Kellybel stomped her foot in fury that none of the elves spoke for her!
At this moment, Mr. Fang sat down before a computer in the corner.
“You must use the Farron Greatsword!” Kellybel immediately added another condition. After all, she wasn’t stupid, and she was worried that this shop owner might use some lowly tricks to pa.s.s the boss.
Mr. Fang changed to the Farron Greatsword.
“My goodness!”
“Astonis.h.i.+ng!”
“The shop owner is playing the game?!”
The elves immediately walked over.
Kellybel almost exploded in fury. You guys ran off when I played. How come you are all running over to watch him play?!
With her hands on her waist, Kellybel stood behind Mr. Fang in a huff and glared at the game character who was wearing rags.
“Such ugly clothes!” she commented.
Obviously, Mr. Fang was dressed in the Master’s Attire.
“Huh? The shop owner is playing?” Some saint-level masters walked up too.
“He’s going to use this sword?”
“Can he do it?”
They saw that Mr. Fang had also come to the stage of Pontiff Sulyvahn.
They felt better when they realized that they were not left behind.
Some of them even smiled since they summoned an NPC to help them skip Sulyvahn.
They felt proud now, not knowing that the more they skipped, the more torturous the later stages would be.
“The shop owner will dance awkwardly too?” They talked among themselves in low voices.
“This elf tried it earlier… it’s impossible…”
“He will get a hard lesson.”
With her acute hearing, Kellybel heard the whispers and felt delighted. You dare to try it? I’ll see how you will act once you can’t pull it off.
Mr. Fang spared little attention to the Farron Greatsword. Instead, he weighed the small dagger in his other hand for a while as if he was trying to feel it out. Then, he walked into Pontiff Sulyvahn’s chamber.
The cathedral was very big, and Sulyvahn was in the very depths of it, at least 60 meters from the gate.
The place was deadly silent. Pontiff Sulyvahn silently stood in the center of the hall like a skeleton.
He seemed to be waiting for his enemies.
When Pontiff Sulyvahn and Mr. Fang’s character were only about thirty meters apart, flames lit up on the two big swords. In the blink of an eye, the firelight from the Profaned Greatsword shot across the thirty meters between them and toward Fang Qi like a lightning flash piercing through darkness!
Everyone watched the strike without blinking.
Usually, the players encountering Sulyvahn’s sudden strike for the first time would be caught by surprise. They usually couldn’t dodge and would panic. However, in her previous battles, Kellybel had dodged it with Farron Greatsword.
Right now, Mr. Fang had the Farron Greatsword in his hand, which meant that he should be able to…
“He isn’t moving?!”
The audience suddenly saw Fang Qi staying where he was without moving a muscle!
In fact, he was directly walking toward Sulyvahn one step at a time.
“Is it possible that this guy doesn’t even know how to dance awkwardly?!” Kellybel mumbled to herself.
The moment she said that, Fang Qi lifted his left hand that was holding the dagger instead of the Farron Greatsword in his right hand.
Ding!
The huge sword collided with the dagger, and a series of metal-colliding noises sounded while sparks flew in all directions.
“Is he crazy?!” The audience all exclaimed.
Even a moron knew what would happen when a dagger was used to block a huge sword.
However, the viewers suddenly saw the Profaned Greatsword in Sulyvahn’s hand moving to one side!
Then, it was viciously bounced off!
“This… This is…!!??” Kellybel suddenly remembered that the same thing had happened to her when she dealt with the Sword Master! She had felt as if all her force was bounced back into her body, and she couldn’t muster any strength as if her whole body was instantly crushed.
“This is it!” She stared at the screen with widened eyes.
Sure enough, in the next moment, Kellybel discovered that Sulyvahn was in the same state as she had once been! For an instant, Sulyvahn couldn’t move!
Fang Qi lifted his Farron Greatsword and hacked down with vicious force!
Crack!
This strike left a horrifying wound in Sulyvahn’s body!
Sulyvahn became cautious and didn’t strike out casually.
On the other hand, Fang Qi casually walked in the cathedral while he confronted his opponent.
Like a ghost, Sulyvahn moved around Fang Qi, trying to find a chance to strike.
Like a lightning flash, his sword thrust out from an impossible angle from the side!
“Ah!” This strike caught everyone by surprise. Before they could react, the strike was parried!
The Farron Greatsword hacked down again and almost cut off Sulyvahn’s head from his extremely hard body.
Everyone stared at the screen in a daze. “…”
Is it the Farron Greatsword that you’re using?!
Black blazing flames shot out like the water out of a fountain!
As if he had been antic.i.p.ating this, Fang Qi moved back and dodged it.
A dark shadow that looked like a dark angel split from Sulyvahn’s body, and the two Profaned Greatswords burned with blazing flames around them as if they would burned up everything in the world!
Flames shot into the ground, and the surging flames forced Fang Qi to retreat a few steps.
At this moment, Mr. Fang explained on the side, “You asked me how to defeat Sulyvahn. Use parry. Who said that you can’t use parry with the Breakdance Greatsword?
“Who’s the first person that taught you how to parry? Do you know Hawkwood, the crestfallen warrior sitting beside the thrones of Lords of Cinder?” Mr. Fang said, “That deserter escaped from the Farron’s Breakdance Crew. How can you say that you know how to use the Breakdance Sword if you can’t parry?”
In the next instant, the pontiff and the phantom struck down with their Profaned Greatswords at the same time!
Mr. Fang slightly s.h.i.+fted to one side and dodged the black shadow’s huge sword which fell like a waterfall of flames. Then, he parried Sulyvahn’s sword with the other hand.
Another heavy sword strike was used!
“So, when you get a lesson from Sulyvahn, give him a lesson back with parry!” Fang Qi said.
“…” Everyone behind him fell silent.
The close-range combat system in Dark Souls was similar to that in Devil May Cry. There weren’t many ranged techniques, but if the players combined the concentrated strength, speed, and skills, the attacks would be horrifying.
Even G.o.ds, whose tremendous G.o.dly power enabled them to use lethal ranged skills, could be blocked.
Humans who had weaker strength thought of a way to deal with these moves.
Parry was a special skill like the Release in Devil May Cry. The difference was that no humans could possibly master Release, but the parry could be used by humans in real life.
There was parry and spell parry, and the System had perfectly recreated them.
Parry was the skill that the Sword Master used on Kellybel. It could instantly block the attack and use the recoil force to shock the opponent’s body, instantly immobilizing the attacker by afflicting violent shock to the body and the internal organs.
With special s.h.i.+elds, the players could also parry spells and ranged attacks, but the effects were not as good.
Of course, parry could only be used when very strict conditions were met. The series of movements must be finished in the instant when the weapons collided. Otherwise, the defender would most likely get hurt.
Perhaps… before being buried, the main character wasn’t weak. The main character in the game could parry with s.h.i.+elds that were fitting for parry and could even parry with his arm, which showed that he was proficient with parrying. The players only needed to find the perfect moment to use it. This skill greatly decreased the difficulty level of this battle.
However, defeating Sulyvahn this way…
Do you think I’m a G.o.d?! Kellybel screamed silently in her mind.
