90: The best offense is defense?

“There are too many people. Don’t use One Strike to Give Up One's Life. No one can help you restore your health, and you might die. You should focus on defense and buy me some time. Once my power recovers, I’ll lead you out.”

The Silver Dragon looked at the countless enemies around him and couldn’t help but remind Qin Tian.

“As long as I can stall for 3 minutes, I can recover 30% of my strength, and getting you out of trouble won’t be an issue.”

The Silver Dragon said this while focusing on recovery.

It silently prayed that Qin Tian’s profession was truly a Defense Warrior and that he could use Defense Warrior skills.

Or perhaps the shield’s defense was strong enough to withstand the enemies for a longer time.

Only then, with enough time to recover its power, could it lead Qin Tian to escape.

“Don’t worry about me, just focus on recovering.”

Qin Tian’s faint voice rang out.

The Silver Dragon breathed a sigh of relief when he heard Qin Tian say that.

“A true man knows when to bend and when to stand tall. How did that saying go? The best offense is defense. Yes, defense, you must defend well.”

The Silver Dragon was afraid that Qin Tian would act impulsively and rush out. Even if he killed a few people in a desperate fight, he would still not escape the fate of being killed.

But now, as long as Qin Tian didn’t attack and kept defending, there was still a chance.

“Hmm? Is this kid crazy?”

Just as the Silver Dragon was about to focus on recovering, it suddenly saw Qin Tian charge out.

With a shield in one hand and a blade in the other, he fearlessly charged towards the countless enemies surrounding him.

“Why can he still use a blade?”

Someone looked at Qin Tian with a blade in his left hand and a shield in his right, feeling a bit surprised.

Logically, a Defense Warrior shouldn’t be able to use a blade.

However, it was only a slight surprise. They had so many people, and all of them were top experts. Many had legendary equipment, and some even had epic gear.

Even if the shield in Qin Tian’s hand was a forbidden holy item, they didn’t believe Qin Tian could withstand so many of them.

The most crucial thing was that some of them had hidden professions that could restrict Qin Tian from using his shield for defense!

“Don’t think that just because your equipment is strong, you can act recklessly. Today, I’ll teach you how to be humble.”

Hu Tian looked coldly at Qin Tian, waved his right hand, and countless high-level guards all rushed towards Qin Tian.

Seeing the enemies charge, Qin Tian did not retreat but advanced, not even using his shield for defense. The long blade in his hand was directly wielded.

This blade was not the original blade of slaughter, but Qin Tian’s newly acquired level 100 divine artifact, Demon Slayer. Although it was not as exaggerated as a forbidden holy item, with Qin Tian’s own attack power, his attack power was already close to 10,000.

And most importantly, when Qin Tian used a blade, he could trigger the ten times damage effect of [Heaven’s Opening].

The current Qin Tian was no longer the one who could only perform normal attacks.

He had already learned many professional skills, including some powerful rare skills.

[Thunder Blade Barrage]

[Dance of Death]

[Magic Breaking Slash]

…

One skill after another was continuously released from Qin Tian’s hand, blade energy filled the sky, and killing intent spread in all directions.

The [Heaven’s Opening] effect was continuously triggered, dealing explosive damage.

[-165548]

[-618856]

[-365578]

…

Countless damage numbers floated above the heads of the enemies around Qin Tian.

To the shocked gazes of the surrounding people, the Auction House guards surrounding Qin Tian were cut down, turning into streaks of white light and dissipating, leaving behind a pile of equipment and items.

[-13]

[-68]

[-2]

…

Damage numbers also floated above Qin Tian’s head, but the attacks of these people simply couldn’t break through the Dragon Scale Jade Wall.

This was the terror of a forbidden holy item. Even with legendary and epic equipment, quantity still couldn’t make up for the huge gap between the two.

“Haha, I’m not dead! My dodge rate is 99%!”

Among all the guards, only one Thief-like person survived.

He watched as his dodge skill and equipment effect caused Qin Tian’s attacks to miss.

Qin Tian looked at him expressionlessly, then attacked again. The moment he struck, the long blade in his hand had already been replaced by Blood Lament.

[-35668]

A yellow critical hit damage number lit up, and the long sword in Qin Tian’s hand directly pierced through the Thief guard.

No matter how high the dodge rate, as long as Qin Tian used a sword, there was no enemy that could evade him.

The battle ended in a flash, much like everyone’s previous expectations.

However, what everyone had initially envisioned was Qin Tian being captured, but they never expected Qin Tian’s combat power to be so terrifying.

The players who rushed towards Qin Tian, ready to attack, couldn’t help but freeze in place.

The terrifying damage displayed by Qin Tian made even them a little afraid.

“My Disarm skill is active! His defense has been reduced by 80%! Everyone, attack quickly! Let’s kill him together!”

An excited shout rang out, and many people recognized the owner of the voice.

“It’s the Warlock Zhou Hao! His abnormal defense-reducing curse has taken effect!”

Everyone looked and indeed, a dark purple cloud appeared above Qin Tian’s head.

His defense had dropped by 80%.

“Charge! For the forbidden holy item!”

Someone let out a roar.

Many people’s eyes turned red with excitement.

That was a forbidden holy item!

It was even more powerful than mythical-grade equipment.

The key was that Qin Tian still had two of them. This allure could only be described as crazy.

Qin Tian also saw the curse status on him and the reduced defense, but the expression on his face remained utterly calm.

Because he had no intention of defending, nor did he need to defend.

The Dragon Sealing Blade appeared in Qin Tian’s hand. The [Hidden Edge] effect on this forbidden holy item had disappeared, and it could be used normally.

Qin Tian’s attack once again reached 100,000.

The ancient long sword was raised by Qin Tian, and countless sword shadows condensed around him.

This was the skill [Sword Qi Vertical and Horizontal] that Qin Tian learned after removing the skill learning restrictions.

It could deal 20% of his own attack damage to enemies within a thousand meters around him.

It was usually used to pull monsters or to deal area damage when a team was running a dungeon.

But when used by Qin Tian at this moment, it was a different sight entirely.

With 100% hit rate, 100% critical hit rate, and the exaggerated base damage and critical hit damage bonuses.

This ordinary monster-pulling skill directly turned decay into magic, becoming a super killing move.

Illusory sword shadows danced across the sky, directly piercing through the bodies of the enemies around Qin Tian.

[-66666]

[-58888]

[-64566]

…

Countless damage numbers floated, and countless white lights flashed.

Instant kill!

All instant kills!

Even with sword shadows, even with only 20% damage, no one could withstand Qin Tian’s attack.

Qin Tian looked around and found that Hu Tian was still alive.

Qin Tian walked towards Hu Tian.

Hu Tian was already terrified and lost in thought. Only when Qin Tian reached him did he come to his senses and said in extreme fear:

“I am the Xiliu Kingdom King’s son. Killing me means offending the entire Xi Liu Country!”

Qin Tian said nothing, just raised his hand and struck with his sword.
