Chapter 19 – [Mortal Strike]’s Might!
He did not know how many times he had hit the ground, but Ghost Knife was beginning to lose his patience while fighting this f*cking guy who is as nimble as a fly! On top of that, he didn’t know at what moment his great sword began to show that many dagger marks!
Ghost knife couldn’t stand it anymore and let his sword fall to the ground next to him.
At this, Lin Ling was very surprised, and then frowned deeply. The only reason he was able to fight a Level 2 Warrior with the strength of a Level 1 Warrior was because he was relying on the weaknesses of his enemy’s weapon. Now that the enemy has laid down his weapon, although he doesn’t need to be afraid of being slashed by the heavy sword anymore, the strength of Ghost Knife’s body can be displayed completely.
(Before Level 6 you cannot channel battle qi into a weapon)
Receiving the fist of a strong man who is a level higher than himself is not a nice thing!
Lin Ling backed away more than a dozen meters in an instant, watching Ghost Knife’s every move in anxiety.
Ghost Knife has learnt his previous lesson and rapidly followed Lin Ling when this retreated.
The person in front of him was devilish and unusually aggressive. He is almost always attacking his vital points, but sometimes also moves like a complete rookie. This abnormal difference between fighting styles made Ghost Knife develop certain interest towards Lin Ling.
This is the magical continent of Valoran where everything can happen. If even robots can have a soul of their own, what else is impossible?
“Maybe I should catch this weird kid. He should fetch a good price if I were to sell him as a slave.” Ghost Knife made a series of successive punches. Every punch of his radiated a strong vitality and power, and their speed was so fast the sonic booms could be heard every time he punched the air.
Lin Ling evaded the constant assault of Ghost Knife as best as he could. His only advantage, Annie’s dagger, could not be used under the constant rain of punches.
If he wants to attack with the dagger, he needs to give up his defense for a moment. But considering the speed of his enemy’s attacks, that short moment would be enough for Ghost Knife to punch him a few times, and according to the level of power showed by the latter, one single punch would be enough to make him lose his fighting capabilities.
Lin Ling was feeling really depressed right now.
With a sigh, Lin Ling held back the pain he was feeling from his arms, which were visually swollen because of the continuous hits he took from his opponents. Rolling on the ground, Lin Ling dodged again a strong punch.
Lin Ling knew in his heart that if Ghost Knife weren’t concerned about him counterattacking with the dagger, then he wouldn’t only have his arms swollen, but would have been punched to death already by his opponent.
“What to do! What to do!” This is definitely a desperate situation to the current Lin Ling, but sadly, he can’t think of any way to solve it.
“Don’t run boy! You can’t run anyway!” Ghost knife screamed as he hit the ground with extreme force. A hole of around 30 centimeters in diameter and 10 centimeters deep was formed on the ground under his fist. The floor around the hole got covered in stone fragments.
Ghost Knife laughed loudly and didn’t rush to follow up his attack. He looked at Lin Ling like a predator looking at his prey and said: “You were so courageous a moment before, why are you cowering now? Didn’t you want to save that little girl? Hahaha!”
“Annie!” When Lin Ling remembered that Annie was still in the hands of the bandits, and unprecedented amount of courage rushed into his body as he stood up from the ground like a cat with its tail stepped on. Standing on the ground with his back straight, Lin Ling let loose of the dagger in his right hand, which fell off to the ground besides him. With a hoarse voice, he shouted to the skies like a cornered animal.
Ghost Knife looked at the dagger on the ground a let out a victorious smirk. “So you finally chose to give up, good. You don’t stand a chance against me anyway. Come, let me give you a quick death!”
Seeing Lin Ling discarding his dagger, Ghost Knife thought that Lin Ling was surrendering, but it was really like that?
Can Lin Ling choose to give up? Annie haven’t been rescued yet, so how can he give up!
Lin Ling showed a faint smile, and then began laughing wildly. His already swollen face contorted even more, giving him a truly horrid look. Even though that face was as ugly as that of a pig, his eyes showed an uncanny splendor as he looked at the approaching Ghost Knife.
“Come!”
Why did he let go of the dagger? Perhaps with the dagger he can avoid getting hit too often by Ghost Knife’s punches, but at the same time, the latter would become more careful, lowering his chances of a successful counterattack. If the battle were to prolong for too long, he would tire out first for certain, and that would be the end for him.
So, there was only one choice left, to let go of the dagger! By letting go of the dagger, although he would lose the only mean he has to defend himself, his opponent would also relax at the sight of an unarmed Lin Ling. That’s what Lin Ling is waiting for!
Getting relaxed in the middle of a fight is the biggest taboo for a warrior!
“If this scheme is successful then I’ll be able to win this battle, but if it’s not, then…” The picture of Annie laughing appeared in his mind, and the last bit of hesitation was erased from his heart. Without waiting for his opponent to attack, Lin Ling made a movement first!
His eyes were the same of that of a cornered beasts! The only though in his mind was to kill all the enemies in his path!
“Stay still and die!” Ghost Knife quickly approached the sprinting Lin Ling, and with his fist tightly closed, proceeded to throw a punch at Lin Ling’s chest!
“If I die, I’m going to take you with me!” A sound unlike that of a human being came out of Lin Ling’s mouth.
Without knowing from where his power came from, and ignoring his seriously injured body, Lin Ling suddenly leapt up!
Avoiding Ghost Knife’s fist by a hair, a red light flashed through Lin Ling’s eyes. With incredible speed, he approached Ghost Knife’s throat and opened his mouth!
With his face distorted in ferocity, Lin Ling bit down on Ghost Knife’s neck with full strength!
“AHHHH!” A terrible cry rang out from the mouth of Ghost Knife. Blood burst out from the wound on his neck like a pump.
The multiplied damage effect of [Mortal Strike] finally showed itself!
