86: All cards revealed

Gu Qinghan, accompanied by his Mutated Cat, continuously eliminated the lone Professionals who rushed over from the surroundings, when suddenly he saw a figure rapidly charging towards them.

It was a middle-aged man with a crew cut, his face stern, yet he moved with decisive efficiency.

As soon as he joined the battle, he immediately put Gu Qinghan's Skeletons at a disadvantage.

The man had no weapon, but a sacred light emanated from his entire body, condensing into a white short staff in his hand.

With every attack, the white light forced a Skeleton to retreat repeatedly.

The opponent's profession seemed to counter his own!

Gu Qinghan immediately ordered several Extreme Ice Wizard Skeletons behind him to cast skills at this man, only to find that the opponent made a grasping motion with his right hand, conjuring a light screen that neutralized those skills.

Even if a few skills landed, they were not enough to pose any threat to him.

At the same time, he also released a ring of light towards the crowd.

Those hit by the light ring instantly felt invigorated, and even their fear dissipated considerably.

Immediately, someone shouted loudly:

"It's the Crusader profession! This person is Zhang Lü!"

While many people might not be familiar with Zhang Lü's appearance, his profession and name had been heard many times by everyone in this town.

A Crusader, capable of both offense and defense, while also providing buffs to teammates.

He was also one of the six powerhouses in town who had broken through the level ten limit.

However, unlike the cheers of these people, Gu Qinghan's expression was somewhat cold.

This guy, why hadn't he seen him before?

He immediately jumped off the Mutated Cat, wanting the Mutated Cat to deal with the opponent.

At the same time, the Extreme Ice Wizard Skeletons also began to release the more energy-consuming Ice Shackles, attempting to restrain Zhang Lü.

As a powerful Mutated Creature, the Mutated Cat quickly turned the tide of the battle, fiercely suppressing Zhang Lü and several other Professionals.

However, Wang Fujun in the distance suddenly smiled coldly, pulled out a staff, and waved it towards Gu Qinghan in the distance.

Immediately, the ground seemed to suddenly turn into a swamp, intending to trap Gu Qinghan there.

Under his command, several ranged Professionals also threw ranged skills at Gu Qinghan.

Gu Qinghan was prepared; this guy was an 11th-level rare profession, an Earth Elementalist.

This skill might be deadly to others, but for him, its effect was limited.

With the treant's touch effect activated, Gu Qinghan's speed was unaffected, and he immediately began to dodge the skills flying from a distance.

However, he also had no opportunity to attack the opponent's backline Professionals.

Fortunately, during the previous battle, most of the threatening ranged Professionals had already been killed by him, so Gu Qinghan was only somewhat disheveled at this point.

The most crucial factor affecting this battle was still the Mutated Cat.

Although the Mutated Cat was powerful in combat, it didn't gain any advantage in the fight.

When facing Zhang Lü, it had a natural fear of that sacred white light, not to mention the other Professionals helping.

Wang Fujun could only affect Gu Qinghan with one skill, but the Mutated Cat was closer, so almost all of his skills could take effect on it.

In other words, the Mutated Cat was currently fighting two Professionals in their teens and a group of small fry.

After once again swatting a sneaking Professional to death with a claw, the Mutated Cat was suddenly struck by Zhang Lü's staff, causing it to stumble a few steps.

Zhang Lü was panting heavily at this moment, but he shouted loudly:

"Give up! You can't take what Brother Ding wants!"

Gu Qinghan's face was icy cold; he had originally thought that with his Skeletons equipped with new gear, he would be able to force the opponent to hand over the Bear King.

However, the sudden appearance of Zhang Lü had disrupted his plan.

An Archer crept into a corner and suddenly shot a sneak arrow at Gu Qinghan.

Gu Qinghan originally wanted to dodge, but seeing a skill in front of him, he immediately stopped in place.

It seemed he was preparing to take the arrow head-on.

"Hehe, my arrow is coated with potent poison!"

The Archer who shot the sneak arrow couldn't help but lick his lips, revealing a cruel smile.

But the next second, he froze.

Although Gu Qinghan stood still, a figure suddenly rushed out from the side and blocked the arrow for him.

The poisoned arrow struck with a dull clang, then fell to the ground.

At the same time, a fireball suddenly flew towards the Archer, scaring him into immediately jumping backward.

"This guy has an accomplice! It's a warlock!"

He didn't forget to relay the information to his teammates, but he didn't notice that the fireball suddenly turned a corner and chased after him.

A scream erupted; the guy's back was charred black by the fireball, and he fell directly to the ground.

Another fireball immediately followed, severely injuring the sneak-attacking guy.

Gu Qinghan seemed to have no surprise about any of this; this suddenly appearing figure was naturally Chen Yuting's Divine Craftsman Puppet.

After completing the trial mission, she could control two Divine Craftsman Puppets.

Before the battle began, Gu Qinghan had Chen Yuting hide in a house behind him.

This was originally a precautionary measure, but it unexpectedly played a crucial role.

"Quick, fight back! What are you standing there for!"

Since Chen Yuting had already been exposed, she simply stopped being low-key, hiding behind another Divine Craftsman Puppet and continuously throwing fireballs at the crowd.

Her aim wasn't very good, but the fireballs seemed to have a life of their own, automatically striking the Professionals.

This was an enhanced ability from the special effect of the Flame Breath Staff; the fireballs now had an automatic tracking function.

The power of these fireballs wasn't too great, but they disrupted the situation, immediately giving Gu Qinghan a chance to counterattack.

Immediately, Gu Qinghan condensed a Bone Spear behind the puppet.

The Professionals on that side were instantly startled and shouted:

"Quick, stop him! That skill is coming again!"

"Too late!"

Gu Qinghan let out a sinister laugh, releasing all the frustration he had felt earlier.

However, this Bone Spear was not aimed at the ranged Professionals, but at Zhang Lü.

Zhang Lü had just clashed with the Mutated Cat and had no time to react, only instinctively shifting his body slightly.

The ferocious Bone Spear instantly ripped off a large chunk of muscle from his waist, then impaled another Professional to the ground.

"Protect Zhang Lü!"

Wang Fujun suddenly released a skill; two earth walls rose at right angles, blocking one of the Mutated Cat's attacks.

At the same time, the ranged Professionals immediately shifted their targets, forcing the Mutated Cat to retreat.

Gu Qinghan frowned; this guy named Zhang Lü was truly difficult to kill.

That last blow wasn't due to his aim being off, but because the opponent's on-the-fly adaptability was too strong.

Relying on instinctive reactions, the opponent dodged what could have been a critical blow, only suffering a torn piece of flesh.

The earth walls slowly disintegrated, revealing Zhang Lü clutching his abdomen behind them.

He was covered in cold sweat, his waist wound gruesome and terrifying, constantly emitting green smoke.

That was the corrosive effect of the enhanced Bone Spear, which could cause immense pain.

But what Gu Qinghan didn't expect was that this Zhang Lü actually endured this pain without making a sound.

Gu Qinghan had a hint of admiration in his eyes; Zhang Lü's performance was that of a true man.

However, such a person had chosen the wrong side.
