Chapter 27 - Fierce Operation

On a vast green grassland.

Xu Yuan opened his eyes, and a notification immediately sounded in his ear.

[The examination begins!]

[Please choose the corresponding scenario according to your role.]

[Combat] [Support] [Life] [Special]

Xu Yuan pondered for a moment and clicked on the [Combat] option.

As a special role, he could choose the [Special] option.

But in that case...

The score would definitely not be high.

"The battle is about to begin!"

"Please kill as many monsters as possible. Monsters of different strengths will provide different points."

"After the time is up, the points you obtain will be your test results."

"Please get at least 500 points. This is the passing line for this exam!"

"Good luck!"

The voice disappeared.

In Xu Yuan's line of sight, countless rays of light descended from the sky and landed on the grassland.

Xu Yuan understood.

It was the monsters that had been thrown onto the grassland.

He raised his head and saw that the nearest light was less than a thousand meters away from him. Xu Yuan took a step forward and quickly ran in that direction.

He took out an orange greatsword from his storage space and slashed at the ugly monster.

He didn't dare to use [Explosive Sphere].

This thing would not disappear until its energy was exhausted.

Xu Yuan was worried that it would float in front of the other examinees.

Then, if the examinee did not know what this thing was for, they could not help but be curious and reach out to touch it...

That scene...

Xu Yuan didn't dare to think about it.

In the past few days, he had already obtained some skills of other roles from the boxes of the various professional guilds.

There were more methods to kill monsters than before.

"Points +5!"

After slaying a monster, Xu Yuan glanced at the notification from the corner of his eye.

One monster only gave 5 points.

Only by obtaining 500 points would he be considered to have passed.

In that case, he had to kill at least 100 of them.

Xu Yuan calmed himself down and then followed his memories to find the next prey.

Along the way, he did not see a single monster. Instead, he met a few other examinees.

Judging from their attire, they should be from another city. In any case, they were not students of Spring City High School.

Xu Yuan didn't communicate much with them and quickly searched for the next location.

"Brother, I found a very powerful monster over there. I can't defeat it alone!" Someone suddenly shouted from behind.

Xu Yuan turned around.

The one who shouted at him was a tall and burly berserker.

There was no restriction on forming teams in the examination hall. After killing the monsters, the points would be divided equally.

Xu Yuan could not find a monster to kill after a long time, so he walked toward the berserker and handed him a party request.

The berserker happily accepted the party request.

"My name is Gao Ming." The berserker carried the great axe on his shoulder and introduced himself.

"Xu Yuan."

Gao Ming led the way in front, and Xu Yuan followed closely behind.

A moment later, the two of them arrived at a high hill on a plain. They stuck their heads out and looked ahead.

Over there, a monster riding a tall horse was leisurely strolling on the grass.

The monster and its horse were wearing thick silver armor. The metal armor reflected a dazzling light under the sunlight.

[Unease Plains Knight (Boss Elite)]

[Level: 41]

[Mount Skills: Stomp; Charge; Flying Kick]

[Knight Skills: Rage Horizontal Sweep; Rapid Sprint; Shield Bash; War Stomp]

"I'll go first and attract its attention." Gao Ming, who was at level 43, quickly set up a strategy. He said, "You follow behind and hit its mount first. Kill the mount and then attack the monster together!"

Xu Yuan nodded.

The two of them went down the hill one after another.

Gao Ming suddenly sped up and rushed toward the [Unease Plains Knight].

"Ha!"

Gao Ming roared and activated his combat mode.

Then, he tapped the ground with the tip of his toes, and his entire body was like a cannonball, charging straight at the knight!

The distance between the two quickly shortened.

When the two sides were only five steps away, Gao Ming jumped high up, raised the giant axe above his head with both hands and slashed down fiercely!

Bang!

The huge axe in his hand slashed at the knight.

The heavy blow didn't shake the heavily armored knight at all.

It did not move at all!

"F*ck!"

Gao Ming was dumbfounded.

He had even used the purple skill [Fury Slash], but it still couldn't break through the knight's defense...?

After he landed, he quickly retreated, wanting to leave the attack range of the Plain Knight.

However, the Plains Knight suddenly pulled on the reins, and the warhorse under him neighed. It raised its front hooves and rushed towards Gao Ming.

He probably could not avoid it.

Suddenly, a stream of light flew over and hit the head of this fierce warhorse.

After shooting the arrow, Xu Yuan quickly put away the Spirit String Longbow in his hand and took out a longsword.

Although the Spirit Longbow was orange equipment, its level was too low.

Xu Yuan's arrow did not deal enough damage and could barely break through the knight's defense.

Using the archer's orange skill [Mourning Arrow] that he had returned, he only wanted the temporary crowd control effect it had.

The warhorse that had been knocked out by the Mourning Arrow was affected by the chaotic power of the arrow and began to wander aimlessly.

The Plains Knight was shocked and angry, and it shouted in an obscure language.

"Don't just stand there!" Xu Yuan rushed forward and swung his sword. The White Knight's legendary skill, [Judgement of Ashes], was used.

The White Knight's skills all had a certain holy attribute, which was a great advantage against heavily armored targets.

The warhorse took a hit from [Judgement of Ashes] and immediately wailed.

Gao Ming also reacted at this time. He quickly used [Combat Roar] to add combat buffs to himself and Xu Yuan.

Immediately after, he held the axe with both hands, and his body started to spin at high speed.

Blade Storm!

This kid used his ultimate move!

Gao Ming was like a spinning top that had been whipped away, spinning rapidly.

The giant axe in his hand danced wildly, spinning into a steel storm!

Ding!

Ding!

The rotating axe slashed at the front limbs of the warhorse, turning it into a bloody mess in an instant.

"Ah!"

The knight let out a furious roar and pulled the reins in its hand. The horse immediately spun around.

It raised its hind legs and kicked at Gao Ming at lightning speed!

As soon as they came into contact, Gao Ming was sent flying by a huge force, and his skill was naturally interrupted.

When the warhorse raised its hind legs, Xu Yuan had already slid in front of it. He put away his longsword and grabbed a short knife that was glowing with a dark green light.

His figure disappeared from the spot.

In the blink of an eye, he was in midair.

He was like a shooting star, rapidly falling towards the warhorse and the knight!

The legendary skill of the Assassin role, [Slaughter Feast]!

Once the skill was activated, Xu Yuan's movement was extremely fast, so fast that it only left behind an elusive afterimage.

The first slash.

It landed on the warhorse's wounded forelimbs.

Before the enraged Plains Knight could react, Xu Yuan's figure disappeared again.

When he reappeared, he was already beside the knight. The dagger in his hand slashed down heavily!

The warhorse was stabbed again.

In the next second.

The knight's spear stabbed over, but it could only hit Xu Yuan's afterimage.

Xu Yuan flashed and appeared on the other side.

Ding ding ding ding--

Within two seconds, Xu Yuan landed eight slashes.

The warhorse that had its legs cut off wailed and fell to the ground!
