Chapter 191: Cheat-like Leveling Speed!
A Drawing Sword sword aura with a diameter of a full twenty meters was instantly released, and it was two consecutive ones, front and back.
This one slash easily killed at least twenty or thirty monsters.
Because the walls of the duel field were like spectator stands, like layers of very wide and thick tiered seats.
Therefore, the area-of-effect attack also had depth. It was no longer possible to just slash horizontally with impunity as on flat ground.
After fighting for a period of time, Liam and Ryuu directly arrived at the center of the duel field.
Monsters were on all four sides, but Liam, leading Ryuu with the courage of ten thousand men, continuously withstood the attacks of a large number of monsters.
At this time, Liam's Sword Soul template level had already risen to 53.
Liam immediately used SP points to upgrade Extreme Ghost Sword Art - Iron-Slicing Style to Lv2.
The power of the sword aura he released again was clearly improved.
Ryuu's breath hitched. Liam's strength had improved again.
She clearly saw that the wounds on the Earthborn's body had become smoother.
Originally, he could only pierce through two Earthborns at once, front and back. Now he could pierce through three at once.
"What an astonishing constitution! This is simply a constitution born for battle~!"
Just as ordinary elves had more magic talent than ordinary humans, Liam's swordsmanship was improving at an even more exaggerated efficiency.
Faster, with greater destructive power...
A large number of monsters madly approached from all around the Colosseum. Liam held his weapon, and a large amount of sword aura was swung towards the surroundings.
One by one, the monsters seemed to be locked on by Liam's control skills. Basically, they all charged towards Liam's side without thinking.
When encountering the long-range attacking Peludas, Liam directly used Pride to release a piercing-attribute sword aura.
And if a Barbarian Warrior approached, he would use Thrusting Dragon-Slaying Slash to slay it with tyrannical power.
The ground became loose. Liam jumped into the air, then swung Sloth fiercely at the ground.
At the same time, a large group of Earthborns broke through the earth.
These skeleton soldiers, as if by agreement, threw their bone weapons at Liam from the ground.
Liam instantly changed direction in the air, then released Thrusting Smash at the ground. A cold sword aura fiercely bombarded the ground.
A large amount of white mist covered the surroundings from the sword marks on the ground. One by one, the Earthborns were directly sealed in ice, then frozen and cracked into pieces, turning into black mist and dissipating.
"Moo!"
As mentioned before, the intelligence of the monsters in the deep levels had improved a lot.
After a period of battle, these monsters were also summarizing their experience through continuous observation.
After seeing that the previous attack had no effect, these monsters immediately changed their attack pattern.
A large number of Barbarian Warriors stood in the first row, charging at Liam from all directions at the same time.
The second row was a large number of Earthborns, and the third row was a large number of Peludas.
Such a grand treatment.
Facing such a lineup, Liam frowned slightly.
He had originally wanted to mindlessly and comfortably grind monsters and level up. Now his Sword Soul template level had already reached 53, at 80%.
This efficiency was countless times higher than other places.
He immediately turned around, and with one hand, he grabbed Ryuu Lion's waist. Then he instantly released Raging Dragon Slash.
The figures of the two, under Liam's deliberate deceleration, still left the center of the Colosseum at high speed.
A large number of attacks missed, kicking up a large amount of dust in the duel field.
Liam, carrying Ryuu, was temporarily airborne. He had to step on the air again almost every two seconds to maintain his altitude.
"Ryuu, release the fire stones!"
Ryuu nodded hurriedly. A fire stone was thrown towards the center of the duel field.
Immediately after, Liam took out Wrath from his Selfless Sword Domain. The sword aura slash, containing high-temperature flames, cut the entire fire stone open.
"BOOM!"
An astonishing flame and impact suddenly spread out. Liam's Sword Soul template's experience bar instantly went from 80% to 95%.
Liam's eyes lit up. The efficiency of this thing was not bad.
Taking advantage of the chaos, Liam, carrying Ryuu, once again released Raging Dragon Slash from a high altitude and directly arrived at the edge on the opposite side of the duel field.
Behind them was a long and narrow stone bridge. That is to say, at this time, their back was the exit from here.
Ryuu looked at Liam with a serious face, "Liam, are we retreating now?"
"It's far from the time to retreat, Ryuu."
Ryuu looked behind the two of them. At this time, a large number of monsters had also begun to approach from the other end of the stone bridge.
Seeing this scene, Liam only felt even more excited, "Ryuu, protect the stone bridge. Let me handle the monsters in the front and back.
You still only need to protect yourself."
From the time they subjugated Udaeus on that expedition, and now, Ryuu was witnessing Liam's strength improve bit by bit.
Just as Liam said, he could indeed improve his strength through actual combat.
His various ability scores could actually be improved through actual combat. What kind of hero's bloodline was this?
It was simply not the degree of amplification that could be achieved just by improving practical combat experience.
A large group of Skeleton Rams dashed towards Liam's side at high speed from the long and narrow stone bridge.
It was just that before they could get close, they were met with Liam's Raging Dragon Slash. As the sound of dragon roars resounded, these Skeleton Rams, which had become blurry shadows, also turned into black mist and dissipated.
Ryuu had thought more than once that if Liam was unable to fight, she would use magic to push the other party to the other end of the bridge, and she herself would sacrifice her life to cover the rear.
After all, she should have died long ago.
At this time, a large group of Peludas were hidden in the monster group. Staying on one side of the arena, they released a large number of poison stingers towards the sky.
These poison stingers were like a torrential rain, falling towards the position of Liam and the two.
Not only that, but besides the poison stingers, there were also various weapons thrown at them by Earthborns and other monsters.
The dense attacks continued to fall. Liam took out Pride and Wrath and slashed at high speed.
Liam's heart moved slightly. He slashed a flame towards the ground in front of him.
The raging flame slash sword aura suddenly spread out, condensing into a vast wall of fire.
A large number of attacks landed on it, but were completely unable to penetrate.
"Clang! Clang! Clang!"
The sound of clashing metal, the sound of cracking rocks, the sound of breaking bones, all converged into a symphony of death in this thirty-seventh-floor Colosseum.
Beside Liam, a blue and white ripple appeared. He directly reached out and threw a blade at the distant Peludas.
One by one, First-Grade indestructible armaments, upon contacting the ground, immediately released a terrifying sword aura.
And these sword auras immediately tore the Peludas and the nearby monsters into pieces.
After another ten or twenty seconds, a faint blue and white light emitted from the bodies of these weapons, and they disappeared from the spot.
"Ryuu, we'll go to the edge of the stone bridge. This way, we only need to guard the one hundred and eighty degrees in front of us!"
"Okay!"
Behind them were Earthborns, Skeleton Rams, etc., and in front of them were even more Barbarian Warriors, Lizardmen, Earthborns, and so on.
Raging flame sword aura, arrow-shaped piercing sword aura were wantonly brandished, unreasonably covering a large number of enemies at medium-close range and long range.
Liam adjusted his breathing. The passive of Iron-Slicing Style had almost become his instinct.
"Listen to the breath of all things, nothing cannot be cut!"
Inanimate objects, living things, imagine the subtlety of this.
To feel, to completely separate the weak points within.
The high-temperature flames once again slashed out horizontally. The number of reinforcements for these monsters this time actually reached a certain balance with the number Liam killed.
"I feel it. My current killing efficiency is on par with their regeneration efficiency." The pressure was forcefully transformed into motivation by Liam. Looking at the experience accumulation data on the Sword Soul template's background, the corners of his mouth couldn't help but rise, the kind that he couldn't suppress at all.
Ryuu stared blankly at Liam. What on earth was this guy thinking? In such a dangerous place, he could still smile?
Pride had a total length of one point two five meters, and Wrath had a total length of one point eight meters. Liam swung the two armaments, fighting with wide, open movements, so exhilarated.
If not for the fact that Wrath's second form consumed too much stamina, he would want to use the second form now.
The total length reached eight meters, and as he input more sword aura or stamina, the length and power of the second form would also continue to increase.
Pure violent aesthetics. It could be said that apart from being too heavy, consuming too much stamina, and having a slow swing speed, the rest were all advantages.
"Ryuu, don't get distracted! The blind spots behind the two of us will be up to you to guard. Help me keep an eye on the enemies that can launch long-range sneak attacks!"
To say it was a blind spot, actually, behind the two of them was the edge of the stone bridge.
If danger were to appear behind the two of them, it could only be a flying monster appearing behind them.
Of course, the two of them had not yet encountered one.
So, they only needed to observe the one hundred and eighty degrees in front, left, and right.
Liam's words made Ryuu feel ashamed. On such a dangerous occasion, Ryuu had actually gotten distracted again.
Mainly, after teaming up with Liam, Liam's current combat power was too exaggerated.
This was a dangerous area where even teams composed of Lv5s, or even Lv6s, would not dare to linger.
And so Ryuu once again seriously observed the surrounding situation. Of course, it was just observation.
She held a throwing knife in her hand. If there was really an emergency, she could throw it directly to snipe the long-range attacking monsters.
This consumed less than always maintaining magic for support.
A large number of arrow-type sword auras were released by Liam. One by one, the Peludas were once again picked off by Liam.
Afterward, a large number of monsters from the front and back of the stone bridge once again rushed forward.
"Ryuu, jump!"
Ryuu immediately jumped high. At the same time as the attention of the surrounding monsters was attracted by Ryuu, Liam also directly used Wrath to release two Drawing Slashes.
That was two super-large arc-shaped flame sword auras of a full three hundred degrees.
The flame slash flew a full several dozen meters, clearing out a large vacant area in front of the two of them.
In the Dungeon, especially in the deep layers, fighting with your back to the wall is a very unreliable thing.
After all, monsters will randomly appear and generate from the ceiling, the floor, the walls, and any other place.
"We're fighting back! Returning to the Colosseum again!"
Ryuu had just landed when she heard Liam's tiger-wolf words.
"Huh? Okay!"
Liam took out a piece of jerky from his pocket, stuffed it into his mouth, and chewed quickly.
Taking advantage of the break in the surrounding monsters, he took another gulp of water.
Afterward, Liam replaced Wrath with Original Sin, and then directly transformed it into a chain sword with a total length of two meters.
"This characteristic of Original Sin is really useful."
This length and attack range were very considerable. Liam simply used it with both hands and attacked the surrounding monsters.
When the chain sword was spread out, it could extend to a length of at least twenty meters by itself.
Basically, apart from the high difficulty of swinging it, there were no shortcomings.
"ROAR!"
The chain sword, like a giant dragon dancing wildly, killed all the numerous monsters along the way.
Afterward, the two returned to the center of the Colosseum again.
Liam directly unfolded his Selfless Sword Domain. One by one, armaments were all inserted into the ground around Liam.
Including the Original Sin and Pride in his hands, at this time, a full twenty-four First-Grade indestructible armaments all appeared.
Ryuu's breath hitched. This was also the first time she had seen Liam's armory.
So many armaments, so beautiful, such sharp divine weapons, Liam actually had so many.
And Liam could also switch weapons at will, releasing the abilities attached to the various weapons at will, just like a weapon master.
Using various suitable weapons as the battle scene changed.
Ryuu was deeply envious. This combat style was simply not something she could replicate.
Just the spatial storage magic he displayed was already rare enough.
"Do you really not need help?"
From the initial urgency, to the stalemate with the Colosseum's monsters, to the current ease.
The combat posture Liam displayed was becoming more and more effortless. At this time, Liam alone had almost briefly suppressed the monster refresh speed of the Colosseum.
"Mmm, if your hands are itching, you can hone your combat skills."
Extreme Ghost Sword Art was a profound sword art that came with a spatial domain. Its profoundness far surpassed Secret Sword Art and other skills.
Ryuu felt more and more guilty. Although Liam was so hardworking, she could only act as a cheerleader.
Now Liam and his party were in a relatively safe situation. "In a safe situation, let's collect the dropped items of these monsters.
Mainly the relatively rare dropped items. We'll pick up the magic stones later."
"Okay!"
Now Ryuu's positioning had even changed from a rearguard to a supporter.
Under normal circumstances, an adventurer team has the following roles.
Defender: Vanguard and Rearguard. Specialized in taking damage, protecting teammates, using high endurance attributes and defensive skills to attract monster aggro, creating an output environment for the team.
The vanguard is generally a shield bearer or a spearman, etc., used to resist powerful enemies from the front.
The rearguard is generally a long-range class, such as an archer.
Controller: Inflicts abnormal statuses (such as stun, slow, poison) or interferes with enemy actions through magic or skills, weakening the enemy's combat effectiveness.
A magician, at the very back of the team, is responsible for fire support and group control.
Support:
Provides buffs (such as attribute boosts, critical hit rate enhancement) or inflicts debuffs (such as lowering enemy defense, resistance), optimizing the team's output and survival.
A healer, at the very back of the team, is responsible for healing and group dispelling.
Scout:
Responsible for exploring unknown areas, warning of danger, or scouting enemy movements. Generally held by a role like an assassin.
Supporter:
Responsible for logistical support, including carrying luggage, retrieving items, collecting magic stones, etc., ensuring that combat personnel can focus on fighting. Some supporters will also assist in restraining monsters or providing tactical support.
Special tactical roles:
Rely on unique skills or development abilities to perform specific tasks, such as item creation, trap disarming, summoning, etc.
Liam was different. He was now serving as both a scout and a main attacker.
Now, his Sword Soul template level had reached forty-four. He once again upgraded the levels of Raging Dragon Slash, Illusion Sword Dance, and Thrusting Dragon-Slaying Slash.
According to the current efficiency, he would soon be able to upgrade to level fifty-five.
In fact, he was even starting to conceive and create a new skill for level fifty-five.
