Overgeared Chapter 741:
Chapter 741
‘It’s difficult to adjust to this body . ’
Hao was a martial artist ahead of being a high ranker . In reality, he was a monster who practiced martial arts around the world to the limit . He had a transcendent body in Satisfy and the real world . Thus, he was forced to feel a lot of dissatisfaction with the newly granted body in Battlefield .
It was a rotten body equivalent to a level 10 character in Satisfy . Heavy, slow, and weak . Hao’s perception was already far away while his body was still in place . Hao filled that his whole body was covered with shackles . He was shocked that he wasn’t even aware someone was watching him .
‘But . ’
Hao thought . This unreasonable situation, it wasn’t just him . All other participants were experiencing the same thing . He wasn’t the only one disadvantaged . It was an equal situation . Hao tried to identity the man in front of him .
‘It isn’t Kraugel . ’
Kraugel was the strongest person that even Hao envied . It was absurd that such a person would say that they wanted to test their abilities . Hao identified the blunt weapon in the man’s hands and thought of a few people .
‘Damian, Vantner, Toban, Bubat, Shane, Ronam . . . ’
They were the rankers who focused on blunt weapons . Among them, Damian favored the sword . But he was a paladin, so he was probably used to blunt weapons . Hao thought about it and came to a conclusion .
‘Damian . ’
Hao decided since Vantner, Toban, Bubat, Shane, and Ronam were two or three levels below him . He was sure that this was the truth .
‘If they saw my skills, they wouldn’t dare come forward . ’
On the other hand, Damian was different . Damian, one of the few people who played a close match with Grid in the last National Competition, was Hao’s competitor .
‘But that’s in Satisfy . ’
In Satisfy, Damian reigned as the pope . As the pope, his skills composition was beyond the realm of a player . Hao couldn’t guarantee victory . But this was Battlefield . This was a separate world where he didn’t need to be afraid of Damian’s fraudulent skills .
‘If we fight under the same conditions, I will definitely be superior . ’
Supak!
Hao promised and moved the spear in a straight line . It was the basic thrust of the spear . Hao had steadily trained in the sword for 20 years, but he also had considerable skill with the spear . Moreover, he had Weapons Mastery and often used the spear in Satisfy . He was able to use spear techniques with a lot of difficulty .
Then why use a basic thrust? Difficult techniques would just grab his ankles . Hao judged that it was counterproductive in his present body . It would just expose gaps . Thus, he decided to rely on the most familiar and efficient basic operations . The result?
Puok!
Hao’s basic thrust was very powerful . Hao guessed that his opponent was Damian . In other words, Hao’s spear pierced Grid’s chest . Grid couldn’t respond to Hao’s spear, which moved through the shortest route . Grid recognize that Hao’s spear was coming almost at the same time that Hao’s spear reached Grid’s chest .
‘This is my chance!’
Hao immediately withdrew the spear . He wanted to accumulate damage with continuous stabs . But he couldn’t pull the spear back . It was because Grid moved forward the moment Hao started to retrieve the spear . The distance between Grid and Hao narrowed in an instant . It was a distance where Grid’s blunt weapon could be effective .
Peng!
Grid rush and the blunt weapon narrowly brushed by Hao’s head .
‘Once again, a non-threatening action won’t stop the enemy from attacking . ’
As he listened to the ringing in his ears, Hao felt pity that he could only deal fixed damage . Normally, that attack would be enough to threaten the opponent’s life . But how could the opponent in front of him be so brave?
Puuok!
Hao avoided Grid’s attack and retreated, security a safe distance for the spear . Then he stabbed without hesitation . Grid was hit again as he rushed forward .
Peng!
Grid’s blunt weapon once again brushed by Hao’s face . This time, he twisted his body to avoid Grid’s attack . He turned his spear to recover . Once his waist was back in its original position, he wielded it again .
Pakak!
Hao’s spear struck Grid’s forearm! Grid accumulated 3 damage in an instant .
‘Vantner or Toban?’
The level was lower than expected . Hao realized that his opponent wasn’t Damian and the audience sighed .
-Ah . . . He couldn’t even hit Hao once while he was hit three times .
-The result is too obvious . What is Grid thinking?
-A fool mistakenly gained courage and his illusion was dissipated .
-That’s the current Grid .
The audience clearly saw Grid’s talent and thought that Grid was stupid and frustrating to challenge Hao . Did Grid upset himself with unfounded self-confidence? Was he crazy or stupid? The moment everyone thought this .
Cheook!
Grid was hit in the forearm with Hao’s spear . Hao retreated to reclaim the spear again . Then Grid moved to the left and right in front of Hao . The movement was too ludicrous to be simple evasive action . It was like a dance . At that moment .
‘These movements . . . !’
Hao’s eyes widened .
-Eh . . . ?
-Isn’t this vaguely familiar?
The viewers felt something strange . Then Grid’s blunt weapon struck once .
Peng!
The second blow .
Peeng!
The third blow .
Kwajak!
Hao allowed several blows . On the other hand, Grid avoided all of Hao’s stabs . It was the side to side movement of Pagma’s Swordsmanship, Link, performed by a level 10 character .
“Grid . . . !”
Hao shouted in a trembling voice after finding out who he was fighting with .
Grid retorted .
"It’s best with behavior the body is familiar with . Right?”
Grid became familiar with Hao’s basic motions of stabbing and used the Pagma’s Swordsmanship that he was accustomed to . Pagma’s sword dance had been used repeatedly over the years and was the ‘base’ of Grid . Grid reminded himself . Unlike other skills that could be activated just by crying out the skill name, this **** skill had the disadvantage of going through a ‘process’ before Pagma’s Swordsmanship could be used .
The experience he had in Satisfy was shown here in Battlefield . The unavoidable accumulation of experience was sublimated into a powerful weapon at this moment .
“Pagma’s Swordsmanship . ”
Grid started moving again . It was the skilled footwork that had been repeated hundreds of thousands of times . The moves he used to approach Hao weren’t ordinary . It was evasive and charging forward . Therefore, Hao shrank back . Hao’s excellent eyes grabbed his ankles at this moment .
“Kill!”
Peeng!
A technique that rushed towards the target while raising the killing intent . Unlike Satisfy, the damage was only 1 . However, the momentum expressed was scary . Hao forgot that this was Battlefield and sensed his death . But it was only an illusion .
[You have suffered 1 damage . ]
“Kuk . . . !”
He forgot to breathe as he was beaten by Grid’s attacks . The notification window reminded Hao of reality . He recovered his composure . But Grid already had the momentum .
“Endless Pagma’s Swordsmanship!”
No mana consumption! No cooldown! Grid didn’t rest but kept moving . He used the footwork for Link, Kill, Wave, Pinnacle, and Revolve . He started to avoid, attack, and counterattack . Finally .
Peok!
Puk!
Jjejejeok!
Grid’s attacks now hit once every three attempts while Hao’s attacks fell to one hit every three attempts . The situation of the two people was temporarily the same . The commentators and viewers couldn’t close their mouths as they watched the fierce fight .
-Grid and Hao are even . . .
-Is this a dragon fight?
-Wow, Grid is cool . He’s the best even without items .
-Where are all the people saying that Grid’s skills are only because of items?
-Grid has proved it .
-How he managed to get recognized as a legend . How he became king and how he got into the Hall of Fame .
He showed his experience winning, losing, fighting strong enemies, and winning to the world as he fought Hao . He was also a high ranker!
“Uraaaaaat!”
“Ugh . . . !”
Peng!
Peng! Pepeng!
Was he too excited? Grid roared like a beast and kept wielding the blunt weapon . In order to make sure that Hao couldn’t use the long reach of a spear, Grid got up close and used the threatening nature of the blunt weapon . Due to the thick end, it was difficult to completely avoid the blunt weapon and it boasted a relatively wide attack range .
‘It truly is Grid . . . !’
Grid was already acknowledged by Hao since the 2nd National Competition . He praised Grid so much that he probably would’ve followed Grid if he hadn’t met Kraugel first . But he didn’t give up .
‘He has fully grasped the use of the blunt weapon with his natural talent . ’
Hao’s gaze temporarily moved away from Grid to behind Grid . It was the side of the cabin . Since they started fighting, Grid had been backing up towards the cabin .
‘I made a sufficient gap in the beginning . In the end, I will be victorious . But it is difficult to suffer from this damage . ’
Hao’s eyes were caught by the long sword dropped by the competitor he previously defeated . It was at the side of the cabin entrance . Hao decided that if he could get the sword, he would be able to fight against Grid in a melee . He believed he could overpower Grid without any more damage . He was much more accustomed to a sword than a spear in the first place . However, there was a problem .
“Why do you think our positions have changed this way?”
Grid was aiming for the sword from the beginning . Grid was approaching the side of the cabin because Grid guided it this way . On the other hand, Hao had only recently become obsessed with the sword . At first, he didn’t even care about the sword . He was confident that he could overpower the opponent with just a spear . His brow furrowed .
Grid opened the distance from Hao and picked up the sword! He laughed at the despairing Hao and opened the scripture in his other hand .
At the same time .
Shaaaaaah-
Light covered Grid’s body and his health was restored . Even here, it was the power of items .
