The Blood Breaker Sword was already light, and with Lightness increasing its sword Movement Speed by 40%, it left the other black greatsword far behind in terms of flight.
The Blood Breaker Sword reached its target first, turning into a red light at the last moment. With a *squelch*, it pierced through the Black Web Hunter’s abdomen, skewering it.
It was clear that the Black Web Hunter was only troublesome due to its Skill Mechanics. In terms of raw Combat Power, it might not even be as strong as two Silver Armoured Spiders.
The Blood Breaker Sword had already dealt a heavy blow to the Black Web Hunter. The Black Web Hunter let out a *squeak squeak*. As a Mini Boss, seeing the other greatsword also slashing towards it, it naturally would not sit and wait for death. It immediately spat out a spider web, trying to intercept the greatsword mid-air.
However, the spider web that entangled the greatsword did not slow its at all.
Obviously, the greatsword’s power was too great. The mere spider web was like a gentle breeze to it, utterly incapable of stopping it.
Jian Ying activated the Mountain Quake Skill again. The greatsword trembled slightly, shattering the air, and the spider web on it instantly broke apart.
At the same time, as the greatsword fiercely slashed down on the Black Web Hunter, its body was also shattered into pieces, dying a miserable death.
After killing the Black Web Hunter, Jian Ying’s mood seemed to improve a bit. She casually beckoned, and both swords flew back simultaneously, hovering beside her.
Seeing this, Lu Fan smiled and shook his head, saying, “Your swords are really strong, but using it to kill a Black Web Hunter is like using a cannon to kill a mosquito. You could have just used the Blood Breaker Sword and finished it off in two or three strikes. It’s obvious that wielding this greatsword consumes quite a lot of your stamina, right?”
Jian Ying did not hide it and nodded, saying, “The sword’s name is Army Breaker, its Special Effect is called Formation Break. It’s the most powerful sword among all my words but it is quite stamina intensive to use. It is just, with your Dragon’s Buff, my Stamina Recovers very quickly.”
Despite her words, Lu Fan could still see that wielding two swords compared to one sword definitely required much more Stamina from Jian Ying.
If Jian Ying had used two swords to kill Monsters from the start, even with Xiao Cui’s Spring of Life’s ‘fueling’ effect, she would not have been able to keep it up.
Lu Fan added, “Army Breaker consumes too much stamina, and this Dungeon Instance is said to have a very large area with many Monsters. It’s a battle of endurance, so you’d better not casually use it.”
Jian Ying frowned and asked, “If I don’t use Army Breaker, what about when Silver Armoured Spiders charge over?”
“I’ll handle the Silver Armoured Spiders,” Lu Fan casually stated. As he finished speaking, his Black Dragon Scale Greatsword immediately underwent a change, as if coming to life. It gradually began to writhe, climbing up Lu Fan’s right arm, enveloping it. Soon, his whole arm transformed into a Dragon Claw.
Dragon Claw and Dragon Blood Armour activated simultaneously, filling Lu Fan’s right arm with explosive power. This transformation also caused a flash of surprise in Jian Ying’s eyes.
Lu Fan flexed his Dragon Claw, adjusting to the power in his right arm after using the Skill. He soon gathered everyone together.
“As you’ve all seen, as we advance deeper into the Dungeon Instance, the types of Monsters are increasing and are more difficult to deal with. The danger they pose also increases. The Black Web Hunters and Silver Armoured Spiders we’ve just encountered might be Monsters we’ll see most frequently from now on. They’ll most likely appear in waves, with Silver Armoured Spiders attracting most of our attacks in each wave, while Black Web Hunters lurking in the shadows, waiting for an opportunity to strike. If our formation is too scattered and someone gets caught and isolated, the outcome would be tragic.”
The others nodded in agreement.
Seeing this, Lu Fan smiled and said, “But there’s no need to worry. You all saw what happened to Jian Ying. Xiao Cui’s Jade Shield Skill is able to counter the Black Web Hunter’s ambush.”
“Xiao Cui, put a shield on everyone!”
At Lu Fan’s command, Xiao Cui chirped and her body flashed with green light. When the light faded, three constantly rotating emerald green Jade Shields appeared around everyone except Lu Fan.
Lu Fan smiled and said, “This is another one of Xiao Cui’s Skills. It can help us negate three attacks. A Black Web Hunter can only spit out one spider thread at a time, they can’t break through our shield. Under its protection, everyone should be relatively safe. But, everyone should still be mindful of their positioning and not stray too far. Otherwise, if three or more Black Web Hunters appear simultaneously and target one of us, that person would still be in considerable danger.”
After speaking, Lu Fan thought for a moment and then said to Jian Ying, “After you put away Army Breaker, just use your Blood Breaker Sword and go to the second line to protect our backline. You only have two tasks. First, when a Black Web Hunter attacks our teammates and comes out of Concealment, use the Blood Breaker Sword to kill it. Second, if someone in our team has their shield broken and Xiao Cui does not have enough time to recast it, you must cut the spider thread before our teammate gets dragged away. With the mobility of your Blood Breaker Sword, these two tasks shouldn’t be a problem for you, right?”
Jian Ying nodded and said, “No problem.”
After thinking for a moment, Jian Ying looked at Lu Fan with some concern and asked, “But can you handle the Silver Armoured Spiders?”
“What’s there to handle?” Lu Fan grinned.
Qin Qiu beside him also smiled and came to Jian Ying’s side, saying, “Don’t worry. Although Lu Fan has been taking it easy from the start, he’s really strong. Otherwise, how would he dare to choose this Level 45 Dungeon Instance?”
Jian Ying did not say much more. It was clear she still thought Lu Fan’s fighting style was closer to that of a Close Combat Profession, and this Dungeon Instance was obviously not very friendly to those that engage in Close Combat.
After Lu Fan highlighted what they needed to do, and arrange the team formation, everyone set off again to explore the Dungeon Instance.
Sure enough, as they approached the central area of the Dungeon Instance, the frequency of Monster appearing had clearly increased.
This time, before they had walked fifty metres, the *rustling* sound of something approaching quickly came from the forest ahead.
Lu Fan calmly walked forward, and he soon saw a Silver Armoured Spider charging rapidly towards the group.
Lu Fan clenched his Dragon Claw into a fist, seemingly preparing to meet the enemy head-on.
Jian Ying, behind Lu Fan, frowned. She had engaged with Silver Armoured Spiders before and knew their defence was astonishing. Even the Blood Breaker Sword could not pierce through; only Army Breaker’s raw power could overwhelm the Silver Armoured Spider’s defences. If Lu Fan wanted to go head-to-head with this kind of Monster, would he not be sent flying at the first encounter?
[Is he really that strong? How could his style of fighting be so haphazard?! Aren’t you a Dragon Tamer? Shouldn’t you let your Dragon take the lead at a time like this?]
Jian Ying had even prepared herself. If Lu Fan really could not stop the Silver Armoured Spider, she could immediately use Army Breaker to knock it back, preventing it from reaching the backline.
However, what happened next almost made even the usually cool Jian Ying lose her composure.
Lu Fan’s Dragon Claw clenched into a fist and swung out, hitting the Silver Armoured Spider with one punch.
When the two collided, there was no scene of mutual destruction or Lu Fan being sent flying as Jian Ying had expected.
Lu Fan did not move an inch, while the Silver Armoured Spider flew backward as if it had hit an invisible wall. Its body burst apart in mid-air. It was not much different from the miserable state of being hit by Army Breaker with the Mountain Quake Skill.
After such a violent collision, Lu Fan’s Dragon Claw showed no change at all.
He retracted his hand, showing no joy in his expression, as if one-shotting this Level 45 Silver Armoured Spider was something to be expected.
“This…” Jian Ying’s eyes widened. One punch with the absolute power advantage, directly one-shotting the Silver Armoured Spider?!
Jian Ying knew very well how much power was needed to shatter a Silver Armoured Spider. She could only achieve it using Army Breaker along with a Skill. Yet, Lu Fan’s casual punch had the same destructive power as Army Breaker with the Mountain Quake Skill!?
[How is this possible?!] Jian Ying was already a woman of few words. Although she was extremely shocked inside, her expression only showed the tip of the iceberg.
Tao Xiaoman, on the other hand, let out a “Wow” and could not close her mouth.
Although she did not know exactly what it meant for Lu Fan to be able to shatter a Silver Armoured Spider with one punch, it was a Level 45 Monster. Meanwhile, Lu Fan was only Level 22. Yet, he had directly one-shotted it. This was something she would not have dared to imagine before.
Tao Xiaoman looked at Lu Fan again, as if seeing a Monster, and exclaimed, “Lu Fan, you’re too monstrous! Earlier when Xiao Qiu said you were ridiculously strong, I’ve already done some mental preparations. But seeing you kill a Monster for the first time today, I’m still startled. It’s a Level 45 Monster for crying out loud, and you completely smash it with one punch? If you had used your Skills, wouldn’t that be even more incredible? No, wait, your strongest should be Xiao Ye, right? If you are this overpowered by yourself, how powerful is Xiao Ye!?”
As she spoke, Tao Xiaoman looked at Xiao Ye beside Lu Fan, who appeared harmless.
Xiao Ye raised her head slightly, her eyes half-closed, as if saying, ‘Humph! These Monsters don’t require me to act. You probably won’t see this Dragon King’s dashing figure.’
Hearing Tao Xiaoman make such a fuss, Lu Fan chuckled and said, “It’s really nothing, my Strength Attribute is just a billion times higher.”
“Overpowered.” Jian Ying also muttered softly, but it was not heard by others.
It was not clear whether she was referring to Lu Fan as a person or his strength.
At this moment, Han Ke noticed a problem, which was that Lu Fan did not have Jade Shield on him. She immediately spoke up, “Xiao Fan, how come we all have these little shields, but you don’t?”
“Oh, I don’t need it…” Lu Fan was about to explain when suddenly, a small *puff* came again.
Lu Fan’s ears twitched, knowing that another Black Web Hunter had launched an attack from the shadows, and was targeting him!
As the whistling sound instantly approached, a black spider thread shot towards Lu Fan’s neck.
