I continue to run away from the blood Knights for four hours doing guerrilla warfare. I've been trying to ambush any of the Blood Knights that are unprepared or show a flaw in their attacks. I have hade the best luck with the ones carrying the swords or knifes because of the long range of my spear. The main problem that I'm having is that the Blood Knights are not afraid of death and will take a strike and not even flinch before they try and strike to at me. I look at my self and see that my entire outfits is covered in cuts and lacerations all over my body and blood just keeps flowing but for some reason I dont feel tired from all the fighting, I truly feel more awake and energize and I have started to enjoy this feeling but I can really feel it when I start to fight the better I feel! I start running at my next target I use a new commen skill I unlocked to shorten the distance call dash Lv 1, it increases my my movement speed 100% for five seconds but has a ten seconds cool down. At first when it was level 0, it only had an increase of 75% and was for three seconds with fifteen qseconds cool down. When I get in front of him a dodge his knife stabs with the last second of dash as I throw out my fist as I use spining fist skill Lv 1 as well and that was it's starting level because of the inheritance from the Typhoon Lord. As my hand strikes into the helmet of the Blood Knight its body explodes into a mist from the force of my fist. "I've killed over 300 of these Blood Knights already." I continue to run around and engage in combat only when it's my advantage because of the way they fight. I step up to a Blood Knight and slash with my spear in a fearce motion trying to cut the body of the Blood Knight in half, right as my spear is about to make contact a deadly sensation start to spread all over my body but it was a hundred times worse from the first time I entered this place. I see the Blood Knight raises his sword above its head and it starts to glow. "Oh you can't be serious!" I scream as the Blood Knight slashes with its sword as a light fire lite on the tip of the sword! "Its a Martial Arts! The Blood Knights can use Martial Arts!" I see I have no choice to be use a skill to evade. Dash Lv 1, I instantly push with both of my legs to the side to sprint out of the way of the attack. As I move the flame gets right next to my body and explodes into a ball of fire and burns everything where I was standing, half of my cloths caught on fire as my skin sizzles from the heat. I run away from the Blood Knight as I knew that if he hit me with the strike I would be dead or critically injured. As I run away from the first Black writing keep appearing.
-1 Hp fire damage
-1 Hp fire damage
-1 Hp fire damage
-1 Hp fire damage
Finally I put out the fire on all of my cloths and at the same time the the black writing stops at the same time. "I'll ask the system after to figure out what that means. Now what to do with all the Blood Knights! Now that I know the blood Knights can use martial arts I'm going to have to keep a greater distance and more caution between each encounter I make with them." I started to use dash only when I had to, to make sure that my life as safe and could no longer use it to engage in combat but now I started to use more of my spear more because I couldn't chance getting closer.
After a couple more hours of fighting the Blood Knights I start to see a pattern with them. I start to see that the swordsman Blood Knights use fire elemental attacks for blast power. The knife using Blood Knights use wind elemental attacks for swiftness. The Spearman Blood Knights use the earth elemental attacks to attach themselves to the ground to strengthen their defences and to block my attempts to stike them. I havent learned anything new from them because no matter what they dont make a sound they are just fighting machines. Because of being under the constant pressure my skill with the spear is increasing at an incredible as well as my speed with being able to maneuver the spear. I spin my body around as I spin the spear I feel more comfortable with the spear then I was the very first time I tried this skill. As I spin I knocked back four Blood Knights, as I finish my spin I felt the same sensation I felt the first time I used the as I stabbed towards one of the Blood Knights. For the first time the Blood Knight uses a movement skill and ducks under my spear and pull out a knife and its movements increase once more. I instinctively yell at the Blood Knight. "FREEZE" All if the air around the body of the Blood Knight initially stops moving as its body turns glacier blue and falls over and shatters.
"Ding New Rare Skill unlocked Ice Tongue
Requirement: Unknown
Description: to effect the water elemental energy around you with your voice." As the message goes off in my head I'm a little surprised. " I was able to gain a skill with just my voice.?" As I'm thinking to my self a Blood Knight take advantage of my lasp of concentration to get close to my back. The Blood Knight grabs its knife as it stabs the knife into my lower ribs. The excruciatingly burning pain of being stabed starts to flood my mind. I distance myself from the Blood Knight that just stabed to just to put my self in front of another Blood Knight. The Blood Knight raises it sword as flames start to approach the hilt of sword the Blood Knight slashes at my chest all the way from my right shoulder to my left hip. My body movements are starting to slow down, as I barely deflect another slash from the Blood Knight with the sword.
There are only twenty Blood Knights left but now that only twenty Blood Knights I have started to notice how much they have adapted to my fighting style, and they have started to work together to get me into dangerous situations where I have had to take strikes to strike back. All the clothes covering my upper body have been destroyed, showing all the stab wounds I have in my back and my sides, plus the giant slash I have reaching from my right shoulder to my left hip. "Twenty left, perfect!" Excitment feels my mind as I start to see a chance at winning! I strat to advance to the Blood Knights until I see all of them run to each other. All of the Blood Knights start to approach two of the Blood Knight that to be a little bigger then the rest. The two Blood Knights walk ahead of the rest of them yells at me with a voice that seemed to sound extremely loud! "Challenger you have done well to have made it this far but we will now put a end to this!" I look to see that neither of the Blood Knights have opened their mouth, I am unable to tell which of the Blood Knights was speaking to me but as I'm inspecting the Bodies of the Blood Knights I start to see the Blood Knights behind the two in front start to melt and turn into the the reddish liquid! Right as the full body of the Blood Knight becomes the reddish liquid it instantly shoots onto the two Blood Knights that stepped out. Their body's start to absorb the red liquid that's running all over their body's until the blood red armor on then starts to change. The blood armor starts to move and morphs into scales and spikes. The armor of the Blood knight start to solidify to pitch black, making it look more like demonic Asura. Two ram horns that are protruding right above their eyes. Spikes that stick out of the shoulders, slender arms that reach to its knees, with razor sharp tallon claws. The air around it starts to vibrate before it raises it head and opens it mouth to show jagged teeth before the screems. I have to cover my ears but I was to late and my eardrums rupture! Blood starts to pour down my ears and my nose. "I can't loss focus!" I yell to my self as I yank my head up to see..One of these creature's missing! Where did it go?! I ready my feet as I look at the only one left to see it smiling at me. A chill runs down my spin and all the hair on my neck stands, The creature leans toward me. A description appears above the creature.
Fiend Lv 2
It finally dawned on me "So this is Fiend creature that has control over the tower, let's see what they are made of!" The first leg of the Fiend creature moves as the ground below it sinks and the ear around it turns to ash, everything around it starts to decay and becomes ash! A black blur appears in the sky, I look up to find the second fiend flying at me with two bone wings protruding from it back. "They can fly!" The flying fiend swoops down at extreme speed as it reaches out with its razor sharp tallon claws to trip my head off. I raise the spear to try and defend my self, before I am able to do that the fiend that was standing in front of me moves as it starts to run right at me to do a pinch attack with the other fiend. Panic starts to fill my mind "How am I going to handle this what am I supposed to do!" Right as the two fiends are closing in on me my mind starts to go fuzzy that's when weird images starts to appear in my head, weird images of myself with my father, I can't see his face but I know it him! the images start to become more clear as his voice starts to eject in my head. "Son, you must understand our trib is special, our bloodline has a distinct effect on a fighting compatibilities, and you my boy are born to be a warrior! so I will train you to be the strongest there is." The images start to change as I start to see myself as a young boy training with a spear. Training by holding the spear, to using the spear stab and sweep, to use the spear as a truly powerful weapon. I see my self training for a year with the spear with my father, Son today is the day you put all your training to use," my father walk over to a nearby bamboo tree that was ten feet tall and he grabs ahold of it and hand it over to me. "Now Bruce listen what I have to say is really important." I can't see the look that he is giving me but I can feel the intensity of the gaze. "Bruce everything you have been doing is leading up to you creating a Marital Art of your own, that's why we built your foundation so durable that you will have no repercussions" He reaches he hand and put it on top of my head as my mind start to move at a incredible speed until I can see thing I could never before. I was having a epiphany on the spear arts. Everything I ever learned passed before my eyes and even my fight against the Blood Knights and the predicament I was in the the fiends. Until everything just fell in to place. My father takes his hand off my head. The vision fades and my father's voice sounded. "Congratulations Bruce I'm proud of you." I catch a glimpse of my father's face before it disappears, all I could see was a smile. I open my eyes as I see the fiend running at me with the earth behind it decaying, and the one in the air closing in. My body relaxes and I move my right foot forward as a slow rotation starts. A gental smile come across my face as I think of my father and everything he did for me. My back leg abruptly spins right at the two feinds come into range, the spear in my hand instally starts to sweep. A blue wave starts to appear at my feet.
"First move Sweeping Wave. Peak mid grade Marital Art."
