Chapter 32: "Concentration"

The battle between the two bigwigs above the city was still going on, and Xue Hua, a salted fish, could only shrink down and shout "666" without the slightest room for interference.

However, as the battle between the two continued to develop, he also began to slowly see some problems.

Between the frenzied Lakanos and Qualkek, the situation is quietly changing, and the speed of Lacanos's attack gradually reaches its peak with the passage of time, and the entire battlefield resounds with the continuous sound of steel crashing.

However, Qualkek's form is very different from the beginning, he uses his weapon to block his opponent's attacks more and more often, and uses energy to force dodge less and less.

The King of the Barbarians, with his eyes closed, seems to have mastered some kind of law in the dark, and can always find the most crucial point in the undisciplined onslaught of his opponents.

This situation looks a bit like the so-called "listening to the wind and arguing position" of those martial arts that Xue Hua had seen in his previous life, but Xue Hua instinctively felt that it should not be so simple.

Lakanos' slash speed was now so fast that even the Overseer could not see it, but Quarkek's block success rate had not decreased, but had become more accurate.

It seems a bit far-fetched to use "listening to the wind and arguing" to explain this level of block success.

In addition, the "concentration" that Ocasso had told him before also made Xue Hua a little concerned, and he knew that the so-called "concentration" was actually a skill of the barbarian profession.

Using this skill allows the Barbarian Profession to concentrate when he wants the enemy to attack, allowing for a continuous stream of attacks, as well as improving his perception and defense against the opponent's counterattacks.

This is a skill that lasts longer and becomes more powerful.

However, the average Barbarian professional doesn't use this skill a lot in combat, and even if it weren't for the fact that it's a precursor to "rage", many people probably wouldn't waste valuable skill points on it.

The reason for this is simple: Barbarian attacks are usually as aggressive and explosive as wilds, and skills such as "Jump Attack", "Whirlwind" and "Berserk" are more favored by them.

Concentration is like a trickling stream, and it takes extraordinary patience and concentration to bring out the greatest effect, and this patience and concentration happen to be very lacking in most barbarian professionals.

In fact, this also makes sense from the perspective of swarm biology, every time the barbarian upgrades, it will improve a lot of strength attributes, and the strength attribute can stimulate the battle hormone the most.

In battle, this hormone turns the barbarians into barrels of dynamite that explode at the slightest moment, giving them great destructive power while destroying their patience and meticulousness.

Barbarians are as famous for their recklessness as they are for their courage, so the skill "concentration" is almost as absent as the name suggests.

But is that really the case?

Not really.

At least Xue Hua knew that the series of passive weapon skills and passive buff skills in the barbarians' "Combat Expert" skill tree were not set up to turn them into a group of gorillas who could only wield weapons around.

Whatever weapon you are good at and used to using will strengthen your specialization, and "Increase Endurance", "Acceleration", "Iron Shirt" and "Natural Resistance" are also very important skills.

The existence of these skills requires savages to calm down from frenzied to overwhelmed combat, to notice their strengths and strengths, and to avoid their weaknesses and weaknesses.

The "Concentration" skill is actually similar to these passive skills.

Staying focused in battle allows you to block out distractions from the outside world, even your own emotions, and focus on engaging your opponents.

It doesn't allow you to defeat an enemy in a single blow, nor does it give you the power to sweep through a thousand armies, but it allows you to remain distracted and calm in a life-threatening battle.

Qualkek illustrates the true meaning of this skill in action.

- It's not actually an offensive skill, it's a defensive skill.

When you're facing an opponent who is evenly matched, "concentration" will allow you to focus your attention step by step, and when you block out all distractions, you will find that your opponent's attack is not as terrible as it seems.

Scold!!

Qualkek's twin swords crossed in front of him, perfectly blocking the two giant blades that the King of Despair had slashed down at the head, and at this moment, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and then he suddenly pulled the two swords to the side, and a silver spark burst out between the two weapons with a piercing metal scraping sound!

Lakanos's hands flicked uncontrollably, and Quarkek seized the opportunity, stabbing his left short sword with a tricky side stab, and his right long sword striking at the head of the King of Despair with a powerful slash!

Thunder Heavy Strike + Side Attack!

Qualkek's counterattack came so suddenly and swiftly, but the King of Despair in a state of madness didn't care about it!

Without hesitation, it dropped its raised hands on the top of Qualkek's head again, and this time, the pair of giant butcher knives were covered with an ominous black-red glow!

Seeing this scene, Qualkek's face changed, the castration of the long sword in his right hand suddenly stopped, and he changed from a heavy split to a horizontal block, and at the same time, the stabbing of the short sword in his left hand also changed to an upward pick, which seemed to be intended to intersect with the long sword in his right hand.

Sting!

Bite!! Rumble...!!

After the piercing sound of the blade cutting through the armor, accompanied by the foul-smelling black blood spraying from Lakanos's body, a huge metal crash suddenly erupted on the battlefield of the two transcendents!

A violent storm swept through the four fields, obscuring everyone's vision

Only Xue Hua saw the live situation of the battlefield through the field of vision of the monitoring king worm, and his face slowly became solemn.

I saw that at the head of the Purgatory Fortress, the Thunder Giant incarnated by Quarkek and Lacanos in the black-red whirlwind had been separated from the melee state.

And both of them are colored.

A large cut was made in the armor from the right side of Lakanos's waist to his abdomen, and black foul blood flowed from it.

Qualkek's chest armor had two more incisions that ran parallel to each other in a straight line, and from the incisions came light blue liquid with electric sparks.

At that moment, a huge spiritual energy fluctuation suddenly erupted from the battlefield, causing the Overseer King Worm to fail to capture the changes on the battlefield.

But judging from the situation after the two separated, this time the attack should be regarded as a mutual victory or defeat.

However, Xue Hua also saw a solemn look on his face under Qualkek's armor, and it was obvious that he was also quite surprised that the attack on Lakanos just now could actually hurt his energy-hardened body.

Because under normal circumstances, Qualkek's lightning giant form is actually equivalent to a state that is half integrated into his original realm at any time, and his energetic body is immune to almost all physical attacks.

But the slash that Lakanos had just slashed at him literally, causing his energy avatar to have no effect at all.

What the hell is this?

Is the armed color domineering?
