Chapter 329 - 96: Classes Level: 4
Raine somewhat stiffly turned his neck to look to the side.
He saw Olaf, the ’Shield of Neverwinter,’ standing about twenty meters away, calmly watching him and Meredith. His chiseled face showed no sign of joy, anger, sorrow, or happiness.
However, Raine noticed that Olaf’s gaze was focused on examining Meredith beside him.
Upon thinking it over, Raine understood Olaf hadn’t seen him act before, and judging by the intensity of his aura, he only showed the presence of a Level 3 Classes. Therefore, it was natural for Olaf not to take him seriously.
Facing such a scene of being overlooked, Raine felt both happy and somewhat unhappy.
The happiness was because perhaps his upcoming sneak attack would be very effective.
The unhappiness was due to the feeling of being ignored, bringing a sense of insignificance like a small person.
"If you don’t want to feel very painful, you’d better confess." Olaf looked at Meredith and said in a deep voice, "Not about just now, but about the Ice Lake and the Bone Gnawing Squad."
"The cause was your people wanting to clear the area." Raine, seeing Olaf hadn’t immediately attacked, thought for a moment and said.
"Clear the area? Oh, is there a problem with that?" Olaf then looked Raine up and down, revealing a disdainful smile.
"So that’s completely unreasonable?" Raine was somewhat amused by anger.
He finally understood why the subordinates of the Nightmare Blade acted so arrogantly.
With such a leader, it’s impossible not to be arrogant.
"Reason? No, the key point in ’reason’ is the word ’talk,’ which is the right of the strong." Olaf crossed his arms, extended a finger to shake it, and mocked, "The weak must obey the strong."
Hearing this, Raine understood there was no longer any need to talk.
"Just like you, with this companion beside you as your support, so the Bone Gnawing Squad all died at your companion’s hands."
"But now I’m here, and my strength is greater than yours, so you will die by my hand as well."
As soon as these words fell.
A sharp whistling sound pierced the air, Olaf, who was standing twenty meters away, suddenly disappeared from his original position.
Moving at a speed almost at Raine’s perceptual limit, the next moment, a strong figure holding a quaint shield dashed in front of Meredith.
Fortunately, Meredith, as a Level 9 Sword Dancer, was prepared, and agility was precisely her specialty. In a flash, her figure slightly shrank, two curved swords crossing in front, her toes lightly poised.
Only the sound of "clang" was heard, sparks flying!
Meredith was knocked back more than ten meters, dragging two grooves deep into the snow.
Only at this moment did the strong wind mixed with snowflakes violently hit Raine’s face.
The sensation was completely different from watching hundreds of meters away; at this instant, Raine’s heart beat rapidly and intensely!
Raine thoroughly understood that even with the Monster Skill’s enhancement, his greatest disparity with Olaf, this extraordinary strong person, lay in agility.
If he couldn’t find a way to reduce the opponent’s movement and attack speed, or enhance his own speed, then even with the Frost Giant’s bloodline enhancement, to Olaf, he was merely a tough punching bag.
It would be best if both means were executed simultaneously.
Olaf’s gaze was still focused on Meredith, who had been knocked flying, but his expression showed some surprise.
Because Meredith’s hood, blown off by the force of that last blow, revealed a coldly elegant face with an exotic flair.
"Oh? She’s actually a Drow Elf." This made Olaf raise an eyebrow and express surprise.
Originally, Olaf wanted to dismantle this female’s combat power in one blow but hadn’t expected her speed to match his, not only able to react but also to block and buffer his Shield Bash.
As Olaf looked surprised, a fierce glint flashed in Raine’s eyes.
’What a good opportunity!’
Raine rapidly planted the totem pole from his waist into the ground while silently chanting—
’Second-stage Gigantification!’
’Counterattacker First-stage Special Effect!’
The warhammer in his hand came crashing towards Olaf like lightning.
The next moment!
"Clang!!" The screeching sound of metal clashing resounded.
Even faced with Raine’s unexpected ambush, Olaf reacted in that critical split second, using the quaint shield in his hand to block the strike.
But a ’what’s happening’ expression materialized onto the face of the extraordinary shield warrior known as the ’Shield of Neverwinter.’
From his slightly open mouth and wide eyes, everything revealed the immense shock Raine’s strike gave him!
"You—"
Looking at the muscular young man over two meters tall in front of him, Olaf, shocked, had barely uttered a word when Raine’s attacks came like a torrential downpour.
Facing such a ferocious assault, Olaf intended to retreat some distance, to carefully observe this ’young man who almost scared him.’
Yet, upon taking a step, he discovered his body mired in bog-like bind, an invisible resistance slowing him down considerably.
Though this constraint wasn’t difficult for him to break free from, breaking free also took time. Less than 0.2 seconds, Raine’s attack had already arrived.
As a result, Olaf could only wield his shield to block again, and suddenly, the two engaged in fierce combat.
