Chapter 16: provocative

When he found that his beloved spear had left his hand, Secamens suddenly opened his eyes and tried to take the spear back, but it was too late. Yang Yu picked up the spear and ran away.

Everyone was stunned.

Is this what you call reliable? Isn't this too hardcore

Yang Yu didn't care about other people's eyes at all. With his defense of about 50, he knew with his butt that he could not withstand an attack of 153 strength. At most, he could just move around and then he would have to crawl.

"rat!"

With his weapon taken away, Secamens could only run and catch up. However, due to the armor on his body, no matter how fast he ran at a speed of 59, he could not catch up with Yang Yu who ran at a speed of 60.

As a last resort, he used [Short Distance Sprint] to increase his speed in one breath, rapidly shortening the distance between them, and clenched his fists to rush straight towards Yang Yu's chest.

At this moment, Yang Yu stopped, raised his shield and took Secamens' punch.

The strength of 153 is well-deserved. The heaviness from the shield made Yang Yu's scalp numb, and a quarter of his blood volume was instantly reduced. If Secamens used a spear, it would probably take away one-third of his blood in one go.

Holding the spear and retreating several steps, Yang Yu steadied his position, panting, and stopped running.

"That's the difference in strength between you and me. Even if you use despicable means to take my spear away, I can still defeat you with just my bare hands! Admit defeat!"

Sekamens was very comfortable with his movements and despite some minor gaffes, he handled the situation with ease.

"You are indeed very strong. If we fight head-on, I will definitely lose. But the weak have their own way of fighting. They will rack their brains to win. If you underestimate them, you will fall flat on your face."

Stopping to pretend to be out of breath, Yang Yu looked relaxed and threw the spear to Sekamens.

"Just imagine that the person who just took your gun away was not me, but a group of weak goblins. Without your weapon, facing a group of goblins, would you still be as comfortable as you are now?"

Taking the spear, Secamens thought about what Yang Yu said. Some terrible pictures formed in his mind. His heart trembled, and his self-esteem drove him to deny it.

"If I were fighting a monster, I would never do this. This is a duel, so it should be fair!"

"Duel? Fair and square?" Yang Yu sneered, "Don't be ridiculous. This was not a fair match from the beginning. A true duel is based on the premise that the strength of both sides is not much different. If the gap is too great, it can only be regarded as a one-sided abuse."

"That's why I gave you a chance. As long as you can hold on for three minutes, I will recognize you. But who knew you would resort to such despicable means. Now, I will never underestimate the enemy again!"

There was a fiery fighting spirit in Secamens' eyes, as well as a lot of hatred and anger.

"Really? But..." Yang Yu walked to a tree and extinguished Secamens's fighting spirit, "This battle ended the moment you looked down on me. I originally thought it would be more difficult than I imagined, but the result was the opposite."

"What? Could it be?"

Secamens opened his eyes wide in disbelief, glanced at Tieba who was hesitant and about to speak, and knew the result.

The task interface showed that the challenge was completed. Yang Yu smiled knowingly and immediately clicked "Complete". The 3,000 experience points allowed him to level up again.

"As you can imagine, I chatted with you just to buy time. This is also the way a weakling like me fights. You lose this time."

A trace of distress appeared on Secamens' handsome face. He could not accept this result.

"However, since you may not be able to accept this result, I will give you a chance now. Use your strongest attack and see if you can defeat me!"

The sudden provocation made Secamens stand there in a daze. He did not feel any anger, but only confusion.

"Why do you keep provoking me even though you've clearly won?"

It’s okay. I just want to try to see if I can get the skill [Provocation].

Of course Yang Yu couldn't tell this reason, so he shrugged his shoulders and continued to provoke.

"I just want to see if you really have the strength to knock me out with one blow."

"Don't regret it."

Holding the spear tightly, Secamens' eyes became serious, and he took a stance. The silver-white spear flashed a dazzling white light. Suddenly, he exerted force with his calves, and rushed forward in phase, with the silver-white spear tip pressing against Yang Yu's chest.

Yang Yu was not in a hurry. He kicked the big tree next to him hard. A jelly-like object dripped down from the branch and landed squarely on his palm. He pushed it forward, and the spear and the blue object collided.

"It's useless! My attack causes penetrating damage, and this weak slime alone can't resist it." Secamens was ready to restrain his momentum at any time and stop at the right time, but the opponent in front of him was not afraid at all, and instead started chatting with ease.

"Really? I forgot to tell you that you have a fatal flaw. You don't have the ability to correctly evaluate yourself and others."

The sharp spear did not penetrate the slime's fragile body completely as Secamens had expected, but was instead bounced away by the slime.

"What's going on with that slime?" Secamens racked his brains but couldn't figure it out. His powerful skills couldn't even penetrate a mere slime.

The spear fell to the ground, and Yang Yu hugged He Meng and patted the dust off his body, as if nothing had happened.

He walked past the bewildered Secamens and said, "I am a warrior and also a monster user. Using monsters to fight is within the rules. You don't need to apologize. I am far inferior to you now, but if I give you another two or three days, I will have no problem defeating you. I hope you won't let me down then."

He Meng broke free, jumped up and slapped Yang Yu, making him look handsome for only three seconds.

Originally, in order to avoid being involved in the fight, it climbed up the tree and slept quietly, but it didn't expect to be kicked off the tree trunk by Yang Yu and used as a shield, and one-third of its blood was cut off in one breath.

How can it not be angry

Don't think that because there is a blood pact between you and me, you can do whatever you want. Even if I lose blood due to the backlash of the contract today, I will slap you twice!

"Ahh! Stop it! Stop it! If you hit me, you'll lose blood too!"

Facing He Meng's slap in the face, Yang Yu couldn't help but smile bitterly. He only resorted to this desperate measure because he saw He Meng being lazy on the branch. However, he didn't expect He Meng to be so dissatisfied, and his favorability rating plummeted by 10 points.

Pressing He Meng down forcefully, Yang Yu coughed lightly, pretending nothing had happened, and looked at the dazed Bai Jin.

"It's getting late today, and this forest is more dangerous than you thought. Bai Jin, pick some herbs and go back to rest."

"yes."

Coming back to her senses, Bai Jin responded and followed Yang Yu's footsteps, leaving only the members of the Silver Wind Team disheveled in the wind. After a while, the three of them walked towards Secamens, who could not accept the fact.

Secamens asked in a trembling voice, "How many minutes has it been since then?"

Tiebi wiped his pocket watch and replied uneasily, "Exactly five minutes."

"You can see through it to this extent?" Secamens closed his eyes and smiled. There was no anger or disdain, only appreciation. "It seems that I still have a lot to learn."

Deep in the forest, in a dim room, there are crystal balls of all sizes. Everything that happens in the forest is reflected in the crystal balls. A green hand taps gently on the wooden board containing the crystal balls, as if thinking about the image that the crystal balls have just sent back.

After a long time, the tapping fingers stopped.

The image on the crystal ball disappeared, and the smooth surface revealed the face of the user. On that ugly, emerald green face was a cunning, determined and evil smile.
