Chapter 3 Deadly Chain Knife
Chapter 3 Deadly Chain Knife
The one-and-a-half-star Beggar Clan disciple mutated into a two-star hero, [Green Forest Hero - Mad Dog King]. Mad Dog Fist became Invincible Mad Dog Fist, and a new special ability was added that could acquire extra loot. Loyalty was also increased by five points.
More importantly, it clarified a method for transforming ordinary units into hero units!
Wang Jue was actually very satisfied with the effect of his guidance this time.
"There's a chance to get extra loot after killing a target. That's a pretty good special ability. Judging from this guy's appearance, he should be much stronger than a Beggar Clan disciple. But that line..."
Wang Jue shook his head, and seeing Mad Dog Wang pounding his chest, about to recite his lines again, he quickly pointed to the side and said, "Go shout over there!"
Mad Dog King obeyed, turning around with his hands on his hips and shouting at the air, "Grandpa's asking you, money or your life!"
Upon seeing this, Wang Jue couldn't help but smile, thinking to himself that this game was still quite fun.
Just then, another system announcement sounded: "Ding, Regional Announcement: Congratulations to player Gu Dali for being the first to complete the second stage of the prologue battle! Bonus rewards include 100 Star Coins and one low-level recruitment token!"
"This guy named Gu Dali is so fast! He gets first place every round, isn't that like a snowball effect?"
Wang Jue frowned. The prologue battle had five stages. He couldn't get the extra rewards for the first and second stages, but if he hurryed, there might be a chance later.
"Now that I'm a Chaos Lord, I should still fight for what I need to fight for. Lying around like a salted fish isn't my style..."
With this in mind, Wang Jue wasted no more time. He immediately communicated with the system and started the second phase of the prologue battle.
"Ding! Phase two has begun. Please defend against the attack of 50 giant murlocs!"
Accompanied by the system broadcast, thump, thump, thump...
Wang Jue saw the large blue fish-man leap ashore from the chaotic starry sea.
The big fish-men look similar to the small fish-men, but they are much larger, reaching a height of 1.2 meters. They not only have two legs, but also two arms. After jumping ashore, they move forward with small, shuffling steps, like boxers, using their fists to block in front of them.
"Here it comes, Mad Dog King, it's your turn!"
Wang Jue glanced around, feeling a sense of impending encirclement, and was somewhat flustered.
The 1.9-meter-tall Mad Dog King laughed and said, "Grandpa's asking you, money or your life!"
After saying that, he strode forward, and the words "Invincible Mad Dog Fist" floated above his head. Then, with a left front kick, a right whip kick, and a left jab, he cleanly and neatly took down the three-headed fishman.
This burly man was like a mad dog, as if he had eaten explosives. Once the fight started, he would smash his fists with tremendous force. The 1.2-meter-tall fish-man was nothing but trash in front of him. He could easily knock him down and kill him with just a few punches.
"Well done!"
Wang Jue cheered, but suddenly felt a pain in his buttocks. He turned around and saw a giant fish-man standing in front of him.
"Fight, fight, fight!"
The giant fish-man muttered to himself, covering his face with his fists, and hopping around happily with small, quick steps.
It was obvious that this guy punched Wang Jue, but because he was short, his fist could only hit Wang Jue's butt!
"They have no sportsmanship; they actually launched a sneak attack!"
Wang Jue smiled. He felt that 50 giant fishmen were not much different from 50 first or second grade elementary school students. As long as he was not surrounded, it would not be easy for them to kill him.
"You want to box with me? Come on, let's have a go!"
Wang Jue engaged in battle with the giant fish-man in front of him with great interest.
The giant fishman's attack speed was very slow, only throwing a punch every now and then. Wang Jue used both fists and feet, and soon it felt like he was beating up a primary school student. However, the giant fishman was quite resilient. After Wang Jue had been fighting for a minute, the giant fishman was bruised and swollen, but it was still jumping around.
Seeing that more large fishmen were coming to reinforce, Wang Jue decisively chose to retreat.
"No, no, my fighting strength is too low. I still need to rely on Mad Dog King!"
Wang Jue decisively chose guerrilla tactics. He then moved around the territory. The big fishmen were slow and posed no threat to him, while Mad Dog King went all out and killed enemies quickly.
To Wang Jue's surprise, Mad Dog King's special ability also came into play; after he killed several large fishmen, shiny metal coins fell out.
Wang Jue picked it up and found that it was a Star Yuan, with a face value of one yuan.
"Killing monsters and getting money, that's great!"
Wang Jue was very happy.
Before long, the Big Fishman was wiped out. Mad Dog King had 50 kills, Wang Jue had zero kills, and picked up 15 yuan!
"Ding! Congratulations on successfully repelling the attack of the giant troll. You have completed the second phase of the prologue battle. The third phase will start automatically in ten minutes. You can end your preparations early, and the third phase will start immediately."
"Ding! Now starting the settlement of the second phase of rewards!"
"Ding! You can choose one of the following items as a reward..."
In front of Wang Jue, a four-option selection window popped up, exactly the same as before.
Without hesitation, he chose 100 points of soul power.
"Haha, Mad Dog King, come and receive some pointers!"
Wang Jue shouted excitedly.
The burly man, Mad Dog King, stepped forward, hands on his hips, and said, "Grandpa..."
"Stop! Stop shouting your lines!"
Wang Jue quickly stopped him, at which point he was already radiating light and had entered a state of enlightenment.
"Mad Dog King, don't be arrogant. With your current martial arts skills, you're not even ranked among the top in the martial arts world. I think that your transformation from a beggar to a bandit is progress. Actually, being a bandit isn't so bad. Killing enemies and getting extra loot is a great ability. You should make the most of it. Now, how should I guide you...?"
Wang Jue paused, and Mad Dog King nodded and said, "Grandpa..."
"I've got it!" Wang Jue quickly added, "You're not strong enough with your bare hands, Mad Dog Wang. Find a weapon, like the Green Dragon Crescent Blade, the Halberd of Fangtian, the Dragon Slayer Saber, or the Heaven-Reliant Sword. Get one, and your combat power should increase significantly! You'd better learn a matching saber or sword technique as well. Don't steal any manuals; I almost got killed last time I stole one. Don't repeat that mistake. Create your own! Yes, creating your own technique is the safest, understand?"
Mad Dog King nodded, and then his body began to flash with golden light.
"Ding, guidance successful!"
"Ding! The outlaw Mad Dog King, after receiving your guidance, has suddenly gained enlightenment. He searched everywhere for a suitable weapon and, during a robbery, accidentally obtained a pair of golden-ringed broadswords. Mad Dog King was overjoyed and treasured the golden-ringed broadswords. From then on, he devoted his spare time from robbery to studying swordsmanship. After three years, Mad Dog King finally created the double-sword technique [Deadly Chain Swords], greatly improving his martial arts skills and entering the ranks of second-rate masters in the martial arts world."
"Ding! The Robin Hood Mad Dog King's skills have been updated: Loyalty +10!"
After the system notification sounded, Mad Dog King's information panel popped up in front of Wang Jue.
