Chapter 80 - Shield Specialist Mixed Breathless

Translator: Atlas Studios  Editor: Atlas Studios

The gun barrel tightened, and a bullet was fired. It shot Wolf King Cree which was jumping up trying to bite its target accurately.

Wolf King Cree’s health bar was nearly emptied, and its fur stood up like the spikes of a porcupine, transforming into sharp iron needles. In The New Age, no other species could beat those belonging to the beast-type species when it came to transformation under the enraged mode.

Once its health points decreased below 100, Wolf King Cree would enter enraged mode. It would be immune to all kinds of damage within the next 15 seconds, and augment 10 levels of Regen skills, 10 levels of Attack skills and 10 levels of Unbreakable status. It could wipe out an entire small team just within these 15 seconds if they were on the ground.

It was lucky that the jumping power of Wolf King Cree did not increase. Lin Jie was safe while he hung onto the tree.

Blood eventually faded away from the savage-looking wolf fur. It regained its softness, and drooped down again, covering Wolf King Cree’s robust muscles. Lin Jie let go of the crooked tree, activated Feather Drop skill and floated down gradually to the ground.

“Awo——”

Wolf King Cree made a final pounce onto Lin Jie! With a swift swept of Broken Blade against the Wolf King’s head, Lin Jie sent it crashing towards the cliff’s wall!

-175!

Wolf King Cree lost all energy to move immediately. It tried to crawl forward with great difficulty while spasming all the time violently. With a sudden drop of its head, it was finally dead!

——’You have killed Wolf King Cree, you gained 42,515 EXP (Over-level Kill).’

Swoosh!

After a flash of golden light, Lin Jie leveled up to Level 11!

With the EXP Gem, the EXP points gained from killing a Boss increased significantly. Coupled with the over-level kill, Lin Jie was extremely pleased to see the jump in his EXP bar.

Wolf King Cree spawned three items: a piece of heavy-looking bone shield, which had a wolf’s eye-shaped gem in the middle, a Bone Teeth Necklace, and last but not least, a purplish-red Skill Book.

As Lin Jie already owned the Shield of Courage, he did not have much use for another shield. Hence, he focused his attention on the necklace instead.

[Wolf Soul Necklace] (Gold)

Can be used by physical jobs.

Requires: Level 10

Attack: 5-10

Strength: +3

Endurance: +3

Willpower: +5

Regen: +3%, Physical Attack: +5%

Additional effect: Night View: +5%.

Weight: 0.8 pounds

Finding necklaces with attack effects was rare. This item was worth enhancing with the Augmenting Gem.

Equipping himself with the necklace, Lin Jie then proceeded to check out the shield’s attributes.

[Wolf’s Teeth Shield] (Gold)

Can be used by Warriors and Paladins.

Requires: Level 10, Endurance: 40.

Defense: 74-99

Strength: +5

Endurance: +10

Grit: +4

Willpower: +10

Block: +5%, Parry: +5%

Additional effect: You will be protected by the Wolf’s Soul. All damage caused by beast-type monsters will be reduced by 15%.

Weight: 14 pounds

A Gold Wolf’s Teeth Shield! It was definitely an item with highly esteemed attributes! If this item was sold at the Auction House, it would fetch at least a gold coin. After all, the main focus of a team was its MT, and an MT’s main focus would be his shield. Hence, such an exquisite Gold shield would definitely be the dream weapon of all Shield Specialists.

The last item would be the Skill Book. Lin Jie looked at the purplish-red cover and flipped open the book in anticipation.

Skill Book: Wild Wolf’s Soul

Casting Resource: Mana

Skill Description: You can summon one to three Wild Wolf’s Souls to battle for you. Every Wild Wolf’s Soul will enjoy 35% of the summoner’s stats. Every time a skill is leveled up, the Wolf’s Souls will get an additional 30 points level up for all stats.

Job Restriction: Can be used by Shamans.

“Aish…” Lin Jie was rather disappointed.

Was this considered unlucky? No. The Wild Wolf’s Soul was the greatest skill for Shamans at the beginning stages of the game. No matter if it were Enhancement Shamans who specialized in melee attacks or Elemental Shamans who specialized in long-distance attacks, owning the Wild Wolf’s Soul would be a great help.

Yet, it was not the Skill Book he wanted.

Other than that, Wolf King Cree also spawned seven Wolf’s Tooth which was of high quality. Lin Jie picked them up and put them away in his backpack. Although the main focus of enhancement for Broken Blade should be its blade, it was still good to keep a few high-quality materials just in case he ever needed them.

‘Oh yeah, all the Shadow Wolves seemed to rush to the other side of the valley previously. Was anyone there?’

——————

The Shadow Wolves kept rushing at the small team just like sea waves running up the shores. With help from the wolves pack, the Wolf Queen’s stats increased by 50%. Its paws lashed out ferociously at the team, and they retreated backward out of no choice.

“Big Brother, I got your back, go now!” shouted Mixed Breathless as he turned back.

Dejected Night took out his Enchanted Staff and shouted angrily, “The rest of you, leave!”

A huge batch of wild weeds covered the entrance of the cave behind the team. Dejected Night burned them all, and other than Mixed Breathless who was still standing in front of him, covering him with his shield against the Shadow Wolves, the rest of the team hurriedly entered the cave.

“Breathless, come over now!” Dejected Night shouted as he saw the speed at which Mixed Breathless’ health bar was decreasing. When the two of them reached the entrance of the cave, Mixed Breathless’ health bar was almost emptied.

Mixed Breathless threw a glance at the rest of his teammates, called up the Group Forming page, and clicked on ‘Leave.’

Ding! All of them were out of battle mode.

Dejected Night understood Mixed Breathless’ intentions at once. He gritted his teeth and announced, “Return to the city!”

All the rest of the players were already scared out of their wits. After changing their jobs, their gaming levels were of utmost importance to them. The possibility of dying at this place made them treasure their lives even more, and all of them hurriedly tore up their returning scrolls.

Mixed Breathless activated the Shield Fortress Skill. This was the skill reward he had gotten from completing his Job-Changing Mission trial. In terms of might, this skill could be considered within the first three most powerful reward skills within all the Shield Specialist’s Job-Changing Mission trials!

Shield Fortress: It can be used after blocking off attacks consecutively for three times. When activating the Shield Fortress Skill, your Blocking chances will be temporarily increased to 100%, and this effect can be sustained for eight seconds.

Block!

Block!

The colliding sounds of wolf’s paws against the shield rang out in the cave. As Mixed Breathless had already retreated into the cave, at most only three Shadow Wolves could attack him at any one time. However, he faced a dire problem—his potions were still in the cooldown stage!

Without any Priests to back him up, Mixed Breathless would definitely waste all his health points on the Shadow Wolves.

Lin Jie looked at the cave far away. ‘Good chap, there’s actually a hidden cave here? I didn’t even know that!’

A Shield Specialist was carrying a shield, and there was a circle of lighted shields surrounding him. This seemed like the Shield Fortress! There were not many Shield Specialist who could learn this skill at this stage of the game. Other than that, judging from his attacks, he would deal out a strike accurately within the small rest timing of every normal attack by the wolves. He had quite some strategy there.

Who was that?

Lin Jie walked a few steps nearer and finally saw his name, Mixed Breathless! He was one of the legendary MTs in Lin Jie’s previous life, and like Lin Jie, he had also suddenly risen to fame. In fact, he had been even more famous than the legendary pretty lady tank Inksnow.

In Lin Jie’s previous life, that fellow had led an epic gaming career. He belonged to a third-class guild, called the Descent of the Dark Night, and he was the guild’s Vice President. With Mixed Breathless’s excellent gaming skills and distinctive personality, not only had he promoted the guild to a level close to that of a first-class guild, but also many teams and guilds had been trying to poach him.

Mixed Breathless had chosen to ignore all those requests. It was said that the President of Descent of the Dark Night, his ‘Big Brother,’ had lent him a helping hand when he had most needed it, and hence he had decided to repay the deed by staying loyal to the guild and forever remaining by his ‘Big Brother’s’ side!

As Mixed Breathless had belonged to a third-class guild, he had not been noticed by most of the game players at first, and his gaming results had not been prominent.

However, he had risen to fame due to a rather sad incident. Dejected Night, his most respected “Big Brother,” had tried to get fresh with his girlfriend. When the incident had been made known to all, Dejected Night deleted his account and left the game. Disheartened by this incident, Mixed Breathless disbanded the Descent of the Dark Night guild and joined Hunter’s Guild which had been very famous at that time. His gaming skills had earned him the name as a legendary MT, and he had become one of the top three most powerful Shield Specialists in the game!

Now, the legendary Shield Specialist in Lin Jie’s previous life was standing in front of him, fighting hard against the Shadow Wolves.

And Lin Jie’s team was just missing a good Shield Specialist!

Due to their inability to reach their target over a long time, coupled with the limited duration of the Wolf Queen’s summoning spell, the pack of Shadow Wolves was beginning to lose their focus. One by one, they gradually left the cave and started to wander around aimlessly.

Kuang!

A crackling sound rang out from the cave. The gem in the middle of the shield held by Mixed Breathless was scratched by the Shadow Wolves and showed a crack. The shield’s attributes dropped by 20%!

Mixed Breathless’s pupils constricted. The health potion’s effect cooldown period was still left with 35 seconds, but his health points were only 100 points!

In the nick of time, a black figure rushed in from outside the cave with an iron-like force. Flames burnt at the tip of Broken Blade, and Blade Auras gushed around, brushing past one’s face painfully.

Outraged Roar!

The Shadow Wolves were stunned. Broken Blade swept past the pack of wolves and flung up one of them into the air. The force of Blood Power poured into Broken Blade, and Lin Jie activated Blood Soul Multi-Slash!

-400!

-400!

Even though the Shadow Wolf’s health bar was still more than half-filled, it was cut cleanly into three portions!

Lin Jie slashed Broken Blade around and activated Army Obliteration! His inhumane Attack Power was exhibited in this fight and became even more prominent now as he was just attacking monsters with weak defense capabilities.

-214!

-205!

-258!

After pulling out Broken Blade from the body of another Shadow Wolf, Lin Jie thrust Withered Leaf Sword into the wolf’s body from its mouth, and slit it apart.

Weakness Exploit!

-194!

In the blink of an eye, two Shadow Wolves were killed.

Mixed Breathless looked in amazement at the Warrior in front of him. ‘Such a powerful output!’

“Awo——”

The rest of the Shadow Wolves prepared to pounce onto the two of them. Mixed Breathless activated Forward Charge and sent a wolf crashing towards the rock wall. He smashed his shield against it several times, and actually managed to pin the Shadow Wolf to the rock wall, where it remained stuck.

Lin Jie secretly nodded. ‘It seems like Mixed Breathless’ rise to fame was not just due to luck. His skills are indeed remarkable.’

The Shadow Wolf’s head drooped down, and its body fell to the ground.

“Thank you,” Mixed Breathless stretched out his right hand, “I am Mixed Breathless.”

“Fu Sheng here.” Lin Jie smiled back.

“Thank you for the timely rescue, Brother Fu Sheng. Otherwise, I would most probably drop two levels.” Mixed Breathless said calmly while he sat down on the ground and munched on a loaf of bread.

Lin Jie pondered over his words. ‘It looks like Mixed Breathless’ experience points have reached more than 95% of the level he is at now. Should he die now, not only would his experience points for this level be emptied, but he would also drop down by another level. Indeed, it could be considered dropping by two levels then.’

“Your skills are good. Don’t you have any team?” asked Lin Jie.

“I have, but they left first.” Mixed Breathless took out a piece of meat and chewed on it. He let out an embarrassed laugh and commented sardonically, “I volunteered to cover their backs. Do you want a piece of meat?”

Lin Jie nodded his head, but took out an apple and bit it. “I prefer to eat fruits.”

The two looked at each other and smiled.

“Did you come to kill the Wolf Queen?” Lin Jie shifted the conversation topic. It wouldn’t reflect well on himself if he started to pry into others’ business when they first got acquainted. ‘It’s better to become friends first, and then take advantage of him… cough, more accurately, ‘lent a helping hand.” Lin Jie would find a suitable opportunity to remind Mixed Breathless to be more cautious around Dejected Night.

Mixed Breathless nodded his head, looked at the shield he carried, and said in a self-deprecating tone, “Yes, but our team is not strong enough. Heh, heh, seems like we bit off more than we could chew.”

Lin Jie stood up. “How about teaming up to kill the Wolf Queen?”

“Just by the two of us?”

“Does it look like there is anyone else here? Besides, how would we know if we can succeed, unless we try it out?”

Mixed Breathless thought about it, then shook his head solemnly. “I know that you are very strong, but… the Wolf Queen’s more powerful and will summon the other Shadow Wolves to help. Moreover, my stats are still too weak to hold off the Wolf Queen. I don’t want to implicate you.”

‘Good chap, this guy’s a fine fellow! I must definitely pull you into our team!’ Lin Jie made up his mind. He blinked his eyes and commented, “As the saying goes, ‘Failure is the mother of success.’ If you are afraid, I will go ahead by myself!”

“…” Mixed Breathless was rendered speechless.
