21: Chapter 21 Fourteen Specialties

Feeling the collision between the two auras from afar, Lin Wan had only one thought at this moment: Run!

However, just as this thought arose, he saw several Chaotic Beasts fleeing from the combat zone.

Not only that, he even heard the roars of Chaotic Beasts coming from all directions.

He instantly extinguished the thought of retreating.

"The Chaotic Beasts have all run out from the core area; these are all Specializations!"

"Oh my, the bigger the waves, the more expensive the fish—let's do this!"

Before the words even faded, Lin Wan had already moved.

The earth-shattering battle in the distance was still ongoing; every collision sounded like a thunderclap, causing the earth to tremble incessantly.

Chaotic Beasts within a radius of over a hundred kilometers were alarmed, fleeing in panic from caves, dense forests, and the depths of mountain ravines.

A beast tide.

Thousands of Chaotic Beasts surged madly, like a black torrent sweeping across the wasteland.

But Lin Wan's eyes lit up.

He had never seen such a dense reward pool.

Rock-Armored Giant Bear packs, Violent Predator Beast packs, and Thunder-Horned Rhinoceros herds were all mixed together, without formation or order, only concerned with escaping the suffocating and terrifying pressure from behind.

Lin Wan charged straight into the edge of the beast tide without a word.

Specialization · Ice Seal was fully unleashed, and the ice-blue spiritual energy spread out, causing the temperature within a radius of six kilometers to plummet.

Frost condensed under the feet of the running Chaotic Beasts, and their movements became sluggish.

Ice Armor condensed; six layers of Ice Armor covered his entire body, causing his strength and constitution to skyrocket by 2.2 times.

He threw a punch.

After achieving Divine Flesh Unity, his spirit and physical body were linked, even in the simplest and most direct punch.

"Bang—!"

The head of a Rock-Armored Giant Bear exploded into a bloody mist.

[Killed Tier 1 Chaotic Beast · Rock-Armored Giant Bear, obtained Decryption Points × 100]

"Bang! Bang! Bang!"

He threw three consecutive punches, and three Rock-Armored Giant Bears turned into scattered flesh filling the sky.

[Killed Tier 1 Chaotic Beast · Rock-Armored Giant Bear × 3, obtained Decryption Points × 300]

After quickly touching the beast bodies to decrypt them, Lin Wan continued the slaughter.

The beast tide was too dense; he didn't even need to aim, as every punch hit a target.

It was just like mowing grass.

No, that wasn't right—mowing grass wasn't even this fast.

The effect of Specialization · Ice Seal combined with Ice Armor was terrifyingly extreme; the frostbite deceleration made the Chaotic Beasts sluggish, and the strength boost from the Ice Armor made every one of Lin Wan's punches heavy and powerful.

And the most terrifying part was the thirteen-fold damage bonus from the Sword Intent.

1.3% comprehension, thirteen-fold damage.

Once the taie sword appeared, regardless of whether the Chaotic Beasts had combat power in the hundreds or thousands, they were only fit to be harvested by the king.

Hundreds of taie swords slaughtered Chaotic Beasts within his operational range, while he himself continued to throw punches.

"Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang—!"

The continuous sounds of bombardment exploded in this area; with every punch that landed, a cloud of blood mist would rise.

Lin Wan rampaged through the beast tide like a humanoid meat grinder.

Fresh blood dyed his entire body red, and layer upon layer of blood plasma covered his Ice Armor, but the moment that blood touched the Ice Armor, it was frozen into red ice crystals, falling off with a rustling sound as he moved.

[Killed Tier 1 Chaotic Beast · Violent Predator Beast, obtained Decryption Points × 200]

[Killed Tier 1 Chaotic Beast · Rock-Armored Giant Bear, obtained Decryption Points × 350]

[Killed Tier 1 Chaotic Beast · Thunder-Horned Rhinoceros, obtained Decryption Points × 500]

The deeper he charged into the beast tide, the higher the combat power of the Chaotic Beasts he encountered.

But Lin Wan became even more excited instead.

[Killed Tier 1 Chaotic Beast · Rock-Armored Giant Bear, obtained Decryption Points × 350]

[Specialization · Rock Skin +4]

[Passive Specialization, overall constitution increased by 50%, additional 20% reduction against blunt damage.]

Good stuff!

Lin Wan licked his lips and continued to charge deeper.

[Killed Tier 1 Chaotic Beast · Thunder-Horned Rhinoceros, obtained Decryption Points × 500]

[Specialization · Thunder Ray +4]

[Attacks deal lightning damage, can paralyze the target for 0.5 seconds, no upper limit on stacking, each successful hit extends the paralysis duration by 0.5 seconds.]

Crowd control Specialization!

Ice Seal for deceleration, Rock Marsh for deceleration and restriction, combined with Thunder Ray for paralysis—his crowd control ability just took off.

The more Lin Wan killed, the smoother it went, and the deeper he went.

Unknowingly, he had pushed from the edge of the beast tide to a position near the core area.

And here, the density of Chaotic Beasts was even greater than at the edge, because there was an even more terrifying existence behind them; they dared not run back and could only squeeze forward desperately.

[Killed Tier 1 Chaotic Beast · Storm Giant Bird, obtained Decryption Points × 500] * 28

[Specialization · Wind Trace +4]

[Overall movement speed increased by 50%, extra +1% speed stacked per second while running continuously, upper limit +20%.]

Speed Specialization!

Lin Wan almost laughed out loud.

Are the ones ranked first and second really such good people?

Specializations were dropping one after another.

He killed while retreating...

No, he couldn't retreat; if he retreated, there wouldn't be this many monsters.

But this wave of the beast tide was truly too dense, with even some Tier 2 ones present.

If this were anyone else, they would have long been drowned and trampled to death by the beast tide.

But he was different.

He had the crowd control of Ice Seal, the defense of Ice Armor, the damage of Sword Intent, and the Heaven's Gate Specialization maintaining his peak state.

The stamina recovery potions and vitality recovery potions included in the target rewards...

The more he killed, the more energetic he became, and the more excited he got.

In a trance, he even had a desire: if only the beast tide would never disperse!

Just at this moment...

A terrifying energy shockwave exploded from afar.

Air waves surged, and even Lin Wan was shaken back two steps.

He raised his head and looked toward the center of the battlefield ten kilometers away.

The sky there had already been torn apart.

The clouds presented a vortex shape, and purple lightning wove through the vortex; every time the lightning flashed, one could see two blurry figures colliding violently.

One was a pure golden dragon shadow, massive and majestic.

The other was a dark red figure, slender yet sharp.

[Combat Power Ranking]

[01: Lu Nuonuo / Half-Blood Dragon Clan — 16156 (Abnormal)]

[02: Hesikeer / Dragon Clan — 15561]

Lu Nuonuo's combat power number kept jumping, sometimes soaring to sixteen thousand, and sometimes falling back to twelve thousand.

This indicated that her condition was very poor.

But what Lin Wan was more concerned about at this moment was another matter.

His combat power was also rising.

The Specializations obtained from killing Chaotic Beasts allowed his overall combat power to climb steadily.

[Current Overall Combat Power: 9070]

He had already surpassed Nuoxia and returned to fifth place.

But Lin Wan was not satisfied.

He fought in the beast tide for nearly another hour; the Ice Armor on his body shattered and was repaired, shattered and repaired again, and his accumulated Specializations had already reached fourteen.

There were also 5 newly added Specializations.

[Rock Skin +7]

[Passive Specialization, overall constitution increased by 80%, additional 35% reduction against blunt damage.]

[Thunder Ray +7]

[Attacks deal lightning damage, can paralyze the target for 0.8 seconds, no upper limit on stacking, each successful hit extends the paralysis duration by 0.5 seconds.]

[Wind Trace +7]

[Overall movement speed increased by 80%, extra +1% speed stacked per second while running continuously, upper limit +35%.]

[Bloodlust +5]

[Restores a small amount of vitality after killing a living being]

[Tenacity +5]

[Gains a short-term damage reduction stacking effect when suffering attacks.]

Fourteen Specializations; the newly added ones also greatly improved his soft power.

He had completely become a hexagonal warrior.

[Overall Combat Power: 9124]

The increase wasn't much, but if they really fought, even ten thousand might not be enough to beat him.

Just a pile of mechanics alone could play to death those with ten thousand combat power.

Seeing the numbers on the panel, Lin Wan couldn't help but let the corners of his mouth lift.

And just at this moment, that great battle in the distance, which had lasted for several hours, finally reached its conclusion.

The golden dragon shadow in the sky let out a deafening roar, followed by a golden beam of light piercing through heaven and earth, crashing down.

The dark red figure was hit head-on by the beam of light, falling from high altitude like a meteor.

The rapidly falling figure streaked across the sky, leaving behind a dark red tail flame.

The direction of the fall was...

Lin Wan's pupils constricted sharply.

It was crashing right toward him!
