Chapter 70: Chapter 69: Feeling Like I'm Back on Track (Please Follow)
Rein had never felt so good before!
At this moment, his body was filled with explosive strength, as if his body had been a dormant volcano, but after being guided by the core skill "Strength Burst," it instantly became an active volcano, with the magma erupting suddenly!
"A formal Knight?"
Rein chewed on the four words that Cole had blurted out and looked down at his swollen body.
He instantly realized why the other party had this misunderstanding.
Because his current appearance greatly resembled Hamilton when breaking limits; his arms suddenly doubled in thickness, twisted with muscles.
At this point, Cole's expression was no longer composed but instead extremely solemn, holding tightly onto two long crescent-shaped greatswords, one meter long blade plus a half-meter handle, totaling one and a half meters in length, not much different from Rein's Dual-Handed Greatsword.
"Even if you are a formal Knight, you shouldn't have intruded into the Dog-Fighting Estate!"
"How long can your breaking limits state last!"
However, Rein didn't mean to explain.
His core skill "Strength Burst" could only last a few seconds, and listening to the opponent for even one more second was a waste of a chance to fight.
To listen, he would wait until he had absolute control of the fight.
Taking advantage of the chubby Cole's rambling, Rein pushed hard with his right leg, shooting towards him like an arrow released from a bowstring!
"Clang!!"
Rein and Cole fiercely struck each other!
The grating sound of metal clashing was almost nauseating!
Rein stepped back slightly, but Cole had it worse; his two or three hundred pound body was directly sent flying back to the spacious armchair!
"Smack!"
No matter how sturdy the chair was, it couldn't withstand the high-speed impact of several hundred pounds of flesh, it immediately split into pieces, dust flying everywhere.
And Cole was in a terrible state, sitting on the ground, nowhere near the poise of the Hyena Gang leader!
"Damn it, launching a sneak attack!" chubby Cole saw that Rein simply didn't bother with small talk, attacking without a word, even more sneaky than him, cursing out loud in anger.
"Maria, summon the pack of dogs! Bite him to death!!"
At that moment, the Hyena Queen named Maria, upon receiving her master Cole's command, immediately cried out to the sky, "Awoo!!"
Suddenly, a group of vicious hyenas, slightly larger than normal size, baring their teeth, sprang out from all directions, swiftly closing in on Rein.
Rein quickly estimated that there were about forty to fifty in front of him, and moreover, an unending stream of hyenas kept appearing from behind!
Indeed! There are only wrong names, no wrong nicknames.
The nickname "Dog King" truly deserved its name!
These barking hyenas, which seemed to be hybrids of the Hyena Queen and other dog-fighting breeds, appeared to be unified due to the strong genes of the Hyena Queen, mostly spotted.
Even the length of canine teeth, the protrusion levels of the upper and lower jaws, and the shapes of ears and tails varied greatly, but each was definitely robust and fierce, with sharp claws and teeth.
At first glance, they were intimidating!
Seeing this scene, Rein instantly understood why the Hyena Queen was called "Queen." She was damn prolific!
An army of one?!
"Awoo!" The Hyena Queen cried out once again.
Upon receiving this command from the "Queen," these strong hybrid hyenas attacked Rein from all sides.
Had it been an ordinary person, they might have been overwhelmed by now, but Rein's Giant Bear Sword Technique was well-suited for this situation.
"Whirlwind Slash!!"
Rein swung the Dual-Handed Greatsword, unleashing a fierce slash, where a silver arc about two meters in radius flashed by.
In front of Rein, at least four or five hybrid hyenas were torn apart, limbs and flesh scattered.
After two or three consecutive Whirlwind Slashes, this group of forty or fifty hybrid hyenas had been reduced by nearly half.
The rest, emitting 'whining' noises, tucked their tails and started retreating.
This scene greatly enraged the Hyena Queen!
Nearly half of her offspring were slaughtered by this human right before her eyes!
The Hyena Queen's face twisted viciously, her eyes glowed red, and with a powerful push of her forepaws, her huge body charged at Rein like a young calf.
Meanwhile, the chubby white man, Cole, also charged with a greatsword raised high.
Their coordination appeared to be quite seamless.
This was exactly what Rein had hoped for.
He had been most concerned that his opponents would keep summoning hyenas and engage him in a drawn-out battle; unexpectedly, Cole and the Hyena Queen decided to directly clash with him!
The other hybrid hyenas, seeing their queen charging forward, also took the opportunity to attack Rein from all directions once again.
"Leap Slash!!"
Facing the approaching Hyena Queen, Rein chose to directly confront her head-on, leaping high into the air and slashing down with lightning speed!
In midair, the Hyena Queen's fierce 'claw strike' contested Rein's 20 Strength under 'Leap Slash'.
But after all, the Hyena Queen was not a truly wild beast, she was just a mutated hyena with a massive body.
"Crack!"
In an instant, three-quarters of the Hyena Queen's right forepaw was severed by Rein's fine steel greatsword.
"Aoww!!!" The Hyena Queen howled in pain immediately!
At this moment, Cole's greatsword chop attacked from the side, but was neatly blocked by Rein's 'Guard'.
"Clang!!!"
Rein blocked Cole's powerful and forceful strike using 'Strong Blade', shaking it fiercely to repel Cole, who weighed several hundred pounds, back several steps.
Without stopping, Rein faced the surging tide of hybrid hyenas all around him, once again wielding a magnificent silver crescent arch!
"Swoosh swoosh swoosh!"
Two Whirlwind Slashes followed by a Smooth Cleaving Slash, the whistling sound of air being cut echoed, and hybrid hyenas were grazed and severed upon contact.
The formidable momentum of the hyenas was utterly quashed by Rein!
The crowd of hybrid hyenas whimpered and retreated once again.
Suddenly, there was empty space around Rein!
At this time, the Hyena Queen, curled up with her severed paw and standing on three legs, let out another mournful howl, her body swaying unsteadily as if she was about to fall.
Cole, initially puzzled, scanned around quickly and saw those hyenas injured by Rein's greatsword lying motionless on the ground.
Some had merely their skin nicked, yet they were motionless!
This shocked Cole immensely.
But the next second, an idea struck him, and he looked at Rein incredulously, exclaiming, "You... you actually poisoned your blade!!"
To still use poison at the level of a formal knight?
Poisoning a Dual-Handed Greatsword?
Could this really be something a typical knight would do?
At this moment, Cole's world view was shattered!
A head full of question marks ???
Hell, who had he gotten himself involved with this time!
Facing this powerful and shameless enemy, Cole completely lost his will to fight.
Just as he planned to find an opportunity to escape, suddenly, the 'assassin' before him shrank back to his original size like a deflated balloon.
At the same time, he staggered unsteadily and almost fell!
This gave Cole a sense of revival from despair!
"Hahahaha, so after your Strength Burst, your body can't hold up anymore!" Cole couldn't help but laugh heartily.
What a turnaround!
At this moment, Cole felt he was back in the game!
He could finally avenge his beloved Maria!
"Then die!!" Cole's face twisted viciously as he raised his greatsword high.
