In general, the Knight class, when doing PVP, was a class that was above average. Its dealing ability was lower than the other classes, but its tanking ability was way stronger compared to other classes. The Knight class had a harsh defense with vitality and recovery. If one could continuously put a deal using a weapon along with his strong points, the opponent would eventually get tired and lose their vitality. ‘And like now, surely the equipment performance difference is a lot… but a Warrior class can never beat a Knight.’ Seeing Ian rushing toward him, Wang Choi smiled wickedly. Wang Choi was already convinced that Ian was a ‘Warrior’ class user. He saw the skills that Ian showed in the previous battle and decided for himself. ‘His physical is great, but if his attack can’t pierce my defense, no matter how great his physical is, it is going to be pointless.’
Wang Choi guessed that Ian’s sword tier was at least two tiers below his armor. If that really was Ian’s weapon’s level, then the deal that it could do would be like the footprints of an ant. “Hmph!” While gathering energy, Wang Choi was ready to face Ian. However, Wang Choi’s eyes widened all of a sudden. “…!” Ian, who was rushing in, suddenly had a shield in his hand. ‘What? Does a Warrior class have a shield?’ Wang Choi couldn’t even think anymore. Ian immediately began hitting Wang Choi with his sword and shield.
Kang- Kakang-! Ian kept giving Wang Choi a beating. ‘How dare this guy use a shield when going against a Knight class?’ In Kailan, the Knight class’ role in PVP was often referred to as ‘Shields’. In most cases, a user’s ability to control a shield would determine the outcome of the battle. It was a fight about who could absorb more damage. Ian took out a shield and was taunting the enemy to come for a war of shields. Wang Choi couldn’t understand Ian’s ‘reckless choice’ no matter how hard he thought about it. ‘Do you really think you have a better shield than me?’ Wang Choi focused on Ian’s movements.
He needed to kill Ian’s confidence by showing him an overwhelming shield work. But as the battle began, a much more amazing sight began to unfold. Papang-! Whenever the form of Ian and Wang Choi moved, two lines of waves came out from their shields. That happened because of the bursting effect that could be achieved by shielding more than 90% of the absorption. A sight that could only be seen by looking at a top PVP Knight class. The others, who were watching the battle, had no choice but to doubt their eyes. ‘What? Wasn’t he a warrior class? What the hell is he?’ ‘No other class could do such shield work!’
The control of Ian and Wang Choi’s shield was very close. However, there was one trap. Wang Choi was a Knight class, and Ian was a Summoner class. For the Knight class, there was a level of control correction when using the shield blocking. Therefore, Ian was showing a similar level of absorption rate The tight balance slowly began to tilt a little to one side. Kkakang-! With a disturbing hitting sound, Ian’s sword scratched Wang Choi’s shield. And the next moment… Puck-!
A dull sound different from the other sound that rang a while ago reverberated throughout the battlefield. “Kuah-!” Ian brushed Wang Choi’s shield. Ian then thrust his sword through Wang Choi’s shield and plunged it into Wang Choi’s abdomen after figuring out the texture of the shield. Wang Choi, who confirmed that his vitality had dropped, had no choice but to doubt his eyes. “What the…!?” With a deadly blow, even if it was such an attack, the level of vitality that got cut off was high. ‘How can I… take 5 percent of damage with one strike?’ 5 percent vitality might not seem that much at first glance. But the problem was that Wang Choi was a Knight class user, which meant that it would be twice more for other classes. Also, the Knight class was the class with the highest defense.
In addition, Wang Choi’s equipment was at least one to two tiers higher than other users. In conclusion, the damage that Wang Choi had received was twice more than what he had expected. “Huhu.” After giving him a fatal strike, Ian jumped back and looked at Wang Choi. Of course, Ian didn’t forget to strike Wang Choi’s mentality. “Are you really going to be beaten by a recruit?” “This bastard…!” Wang Choi, who felt the rage burn in him, ran toward Ian like a bison. Ian saw that and thought to himself. ‘How did you get 2 kills with such low-level skills… This is one overconfident one.’
Actually, he didn’t see it, but Ian was a bit surprised by the airborne attack. There were 2 reasons for it.
First, the physical disparity of Wang Choi was surprising. Of course, it wasn’t that Wang Choi’s physical was bad. Though it might be unfair, he was better than Herz when it came to physical. The problem was that it wasn’t a general battlefield. Only 50 people had been selected from the whole world, so it was like the Battle with the Stars. For someone who had 2 kills, Wang Choi’s skills were extremely lacking. Second, Ian was surprised by Wang Choi’s defense and offense, which exceeded his expectations. In short, he was surprised by Wang Choi’s ‘weapons’.
‘Did he did it like me? How did he even get to hold such high tiered weapons?’ Ian wasn’t sure about the weapons’ options since he hadn’t seen it yet, but Wang Choi’s items were better than what Ian had. Of course, they were weaker than the ‘Dragon Warlord Orb’, which was in Ian’s inventory, but they were superior compared to what Ian had. While Ian was thinking about that, Wang Choi’s sword had begun to narrow the distance between them once again. However, Ian was still very relaxed. ‘He still hasn’t understood the situation… stop hitting a hundred.’ And soon, Wang Choi’s sword moved. But he lost his target because he lost his balance. Wang Choi was trying to hold his anxiety back as hard as he could.
“…!” After making Wang Choi flustered, Ian’s form changed. Pung-! A soft explosion was triggered. As the sound resonated, Wang Choi’s form emerged into the air. Wang Choi was hit by a scarf stroke. “Uh ah…!” The shock launched Wang Choi into the air, and that made him scream his lungs out. Pu-Puck-! Wang Choi landed with his back faced to the ground, and Ian indiscriminately scrambled him.
[Fatal Damage was done to the Devil Army user Lance ‘Wang Choi’!] [Fatal Damage was done to the Devil Army user Lance ‘Wang Choi’!] Wang Choi was confused. But it didn’t end there. Ian’s sword was stuck on Wang Choi’s back. Puck-! At that moment… The system messages, which were hard to believe, came into Wang Choi’s eyes. [Deadly damage was done in a defenseless state.] [The durability of the ‘Marion Plate Armor’ dropped by 30%.]
[The ‘Marion Plate Armor’ has been ruptured.] [The defense of the ‘Marion Plate Armor’ has been reduced by 63%.] “Keuk…!” After being indiscriminately attacked by Ian, Wang Choi was thrown and rolled down on the floor. Although he still had more than half of his vitality, Wang Choi had already lost a lot of vitality. ‘My… my armor…!’ The Marion Plate Armor was a small item that made a difference in the Brave Canyon. The fact that it had been ruptured meant that it wasn’t functioning. It wasn’t impossible to have it repaired, but it was going to be tough to get it back to its original form.
In general, once an item was ruptured, the performance of the item would be reduced by around 50%. Instead of using the Marion Plate Armor, it was better to just wear any ‘combatant’ level armor. “This… this…!” Wang Choi was screaming while banging his fists; complex emotions rushed in him. However, Ian didn’t give enough time for Wang Choi to mourn. “Kay, that was pretty hard… now go and rest.” With an intense force, Ian ran toward Wang Choi. Of course, Wang Choi still fought back, but his movements were different than before. His armor was ruptured, and he didn’t have the right mentality to continue fighting. His former bashful self wasn’t there anymore. Puck- Puck-!
Even though he was still holding on to his shield, Wang Choi couldn’t block any of Ian’s incoming attacks. Ian’s blue shield began to spread like it did in the beginning. Paang-! Around 10 minutes had passed. [The Devil Army, lance user’s ‘Wang Choi’ vitality has been exhausted.] [The knight ‘Ian’ of the Celestial army has won.] [Wang Choi has been summoned outside of the battlefield.] The message that came at the end appeared in front of all the users on the battlefield. Tring-! And in front of Ian came the most satisfying messages.
[You have won over the defense.] [Current Kill Point: 4] [You have achieved 4 kills in a row.] [You’ve acquired an additional 150 points of public value.]
