Chapter 206:
As the Meow King’s group of 6 and the construction site duo were using a large amount of explosives to blast open the outer shell above the underground cavern, Brother Mao, who had earlier defeated a Blood Pact Knight recruit, was sharing today’s battle experience with his brothers-in-arms on the road leading to the ancient sewer area.
“Those Blood Pact Knight recruits are fierce! They excel at head-on combat, the complete opposite of Blood Vulture vampires who always try to target weaknesses,” said Brother Mao, who had already committed to following the classic profession path of “Weapon Master,” while swinging the war halberd in his hand to find the right feel.
“They’re the perfect opponents for our fighting style. I guess this might be a time-limited special event in the Fight Club. You guys should try fighting them when you have time. This gameplay might lead to group battles later!
When that happens, the 5 of us can go together and fight several rounds with the Blood Pact Knights.
Lord Maxim has already posted new challenge rules. If you accumulate 5 victories in battles against Blood Pact Knights, you can get a piece of the standard Commander-level ‘Crimson Gladiator’ set.
Although it’s just a ‘reskin’ of the clan guard set dyed red, it has very practical attribute enhancement enchantments. Plus, it’s much easier than spending time running dungeons for this 1v1 combat.”
“That might be easier for you, Brother Mao,” East River Lion’s Roar, who had transformed into the advanced “Gladiator” profession and dressed himself like Pantheon with a war spear and small round shield, said with a bitter face:
“I went up to fight tonight too, but I couldn’t win! Those guys are all elite monsters, and occasionally they even throw out an elite boss. Their battle techniques are all Proficient, and they’re incredibly strong. For us who have just learned advanced battle techniques without mastery bonuses, one slip-up and we’re done for.”
“That just means your technique isn’t good enough. It needs polishing. Like they say, ‘a day with a blade, a month with a staff, a lifetime with a spear.’ If you don’t practice for three days, you get rusty. That’s how martial arts is. Having good opponents is a rare opportunity. Do you know how much it costs to hire a sparring partner of this level in real life?
