Ultimate skill!

“Reaching Level 20 less than an hour into the game—I must be the only one, right?”

White Night stretched his limbs, feeling the surging power within him, a confident smile playing on his lips.

This speed was something even the powerful Professionals revered in his previous life could never have achieved.

“Simply invincible!”

White Night sighed with emotion, feeling even more confident about the future... He didn't dwell on his current achievements.

He knew the value of time, so he turned and walked deeper into the forest, continuing his hunt for monsters.

Two hours later.

In a canyon area of the Enchanted Forest, an even more intense battle was unfolding.

White Night was surrounded by three Shadow Demon Wolves. These three wolves were noticeably larger than the ones he had encountered before, their fur bristling, exuding a ferocious aura!

All three of these Demon Wolves were above Level 40!

One of them, however, was distinctly different: it had a tuft of dark red fur on its forehead and was enveloped in a faint, bloody mist!

This was an Elite unit!

...[Name: Shadow Demon Wolf]

Grade: Elite

Level: Lv40

Health: 7000

Skills: Sharp Claws, Shadow Pounce, Frenzied Shadow, Blood Shadow Assault...Elite units are extremely powerful, not only do their base attributes far exceed those of ordinary monsters of the same rank, but they also possess special skill enhancements!

Without equipment support, normal Professionals of the same level would find it difficult to contend with them, often requiring teamwork to barely cope.

Fortunately, White Night had already reached Level 50!

After two hours of continuous leveling, his attributes had greatly improved, and his combat power had risen accordingly!

Along with the significant increase in attributes, he also gained three new skills.

All were highly destructive active skills for the Warrior class.

They were:

[Bloodthirst] (Restores 5% of damage dealt as health when attacking).

[Crushing Rock Fist] (Knocks back enemies in a small area in front, dealing 170% physical damage)

[Gale Slash] (Swings weapon to perform three rapid slashes on surrounding enemies, each dealing 150% physical damage).

The later the stage, the more powerful the new skills awakened.

These three new skills could play a huge role in both one-on-one duels and group battles!

Each one could elevate White Night's combat power to the next level!

“Roar!”

The Elite Demon Wolf let out a deafening roar and was the first to attack.

The bloody mist around it suddenly intensified, transforming into a streak of crimson light. Its speed was much faster than the other two ordinary Demon Wolves, and it charged straight at White Night's face with a pungent, bloody scent!

This was its exclusive skill, [Blood Shadow Assault]!

This skill greatly increased movement and attack speed for a short period.

The other two Demon Wolves were not to be outdone, flanking him from the left and right!

Their sharp claws gleamed coldly in the sunlight as they simultaneously activated their [Sharp Claws] skill.

Instantly, five black claw marks tore through the air, blocking all of White Night's evasion routes!

White Night's eyes narrowed. Instead of retreating, he advanced, using basic footwork to sharply swerve to the left, narrowly dodging the Elite Demon Wolf's pounce.

At the same time, he clenched his right fist, [Crushing Rock Fist] instantly activating. Earth-yellow light enveloped his fist, which then slammed into the ordinary Demon Wolf attacking from the left with a dull whooshing sound!

“Bang!”

The Demon Wolf let out a yelp, sent flying backward to crash into a nearby tree trunk, which shook, shedding a few withered leaves.

The next moment, the Demon Wolf slid to the ground, struggling a few times before barely getting back on its feet, its health instantly dropping by nearly half!

White Night pressed his advantage, striking this Demon Wolf dead first with a single punch!

Immediately after, White Night flipped his wrist, grasping a phantom long blade that appeared out of thin air, and swung it at the ordinary Demon Wolf on his right.

A flash of blade light, the [Gale Slash] skill activated, and three silver blade shadows overlapped, cutting a graceful arc that precisely struck the Demon Wolf's neck!

Pfft!

Blood splattered, and the Demon Wolf on the right whimpered, collapsing to the ground, completely lifeless.

The next moment.

The light of leveling up surged around White Night. The experience from the two Level 30 Demon Wolves made him level up several times again, significantly boosting his strength once more!

Breaking through in battle!

After dealing with the two ordinary Demon Wolves, White Night focused his attention entirely on the Elite Demon Wolf.

Seeing its companions killed, the Elite Demon Wolf's crimson eyes burned even brighter. It spun around abruptly, its tail lashing out like a steel whip, whistling as it struck at White Night's back!

This was its other skill, [Shadow Whip], imbued with dark energy, which would cause continuous damage if hit.

White Night sensed the strong wind behind him, quickly turned, and held his long blade horizontally behind him.

Clang!

With a crisp sound, the long blade collided with the Demon Wolf's tail. White Night felt a tremendous force, his arm slightly numb, and his body was knocked back two steps.

Before he could steady himself, the Elite Demon Wolf attacked again. It opened its maw and spat out a dense cloud of black mist, which transformed into several shadow arrows in mid-air, shooting towards White Night!

White Night's eyes narrowed. He spread his feet slightly and wielded his long blade impenetrably, forming a solid defensive barrier.

Clink, clink, clink!

The shadow arrows successively struck the blade, emitting crisp sounds and being blocked one by one, but the chilling energy contained within the black mist still made him shiver.

The next moment.

“It's my turn!”

White Night roared, taking the initiative to attack.

He pushed off the ground, his figure darting towards the Elite Demon Wolf like lightning, simultaneously activating the [Bloodthirst] skill. A faint red glow appeared on his long blade.

He swung his long blade, slashing towards the Demon Wolf's abdomen. The blade light was sharp, carrying a Bloodthirst aura!

The Elite Demon Wolf was not to be outdone, crossing its front paws in front of itself. A layer of black keratin covered its claws, instantly boosting its defense.

Clang!

Blade and claw collided, sparks flying. White Night felt as if he had struck a block of iron; his long blade was repelled, and the Elite Demon Wolf was also shaken back half a step.

Taking advantage of the Demon Wolf's retreat, White Night activated [Gale Slash] again. Blade shadows flew, continuously attacking the Demon Wolf's defense.

Although the Elite Demon Wolf's defense was formidable, under White Night's continuous attacks, it gradually began to falter, and the bloody mist around it dimmed considerably.

“Now!”

White Night seized an opening, plunging his long blade into the ground. He formed hand seals, and the mana within his body surged wildly, preparing to unleash a more powerful attack.

The Elite Demon Wolf sensed the danger. It let out a sky-shattering howl, and the bloody mist around it erupted, forming a crimson shield. At the same time, its body began to swell—this was its most powerful skill, [Frenzy]!

It could increase its attack and defense by 50% for a short period, but it would fall into a weakened state afterward.

White Night's eyes sharpened. He abandoned the skill he was preparing, quickly pulled out his long blade, and rapidly retreated, creating distance.

The Frenzied Elite Demon Wolf's speed and strength had greatly increased. It charged at White Night like a mad beast, each attack carrying astonishing momentum.

White Night relied on his flexible footwork to continuously dodge, while also looking for an opportunity to counterattack. His health had dropped significantly in the previous clashes, and he had to end the battle quickly.

Finally, when the Demon Wolf's pounce missed, and its old strength was exhausted while new strength had not yet emerged, White Night seized the opportunity!

He poured all his strength into the long blade, charging at the Demon Wolf. The long blade was raised high, carrying an indomitable aura, and slashed towards the Demon Wolf's head.

The Elite Demon Wolf tried to dodge, but it was too late.

Pfft!

The long blade successfully struck, deeply embedding itself in the Demon Wolf's head. The Frenzy effect instantly ceased, the Demon Wolf's body swayed, and its massive form crashed to the ground, completely lifeless!

After paying the price of some health, White Night finally successfully killed it!

As the Elite Demon Wolf fell, a tidal wave of experience points surged into White Night's body!

At the same time, next to the Elite Demon Wolf's corpse, a bronze-colored treasure chest slowly emerged, carved with simple patterns and emitting a faint glow.

Bronze-grade treasure chest!

White Night first turned his attention to his attribute panel to check his status after leveling up:

[Name: White Night]

Class: Warrior

Level: Lv65

Health: 12,000

Mana: 3000

Attributes: Strength 820, Spirit 300, Agility 420, Constitution 550

Skills: Basic Combat Arts, Heavy Strike...Berserker!

...After two hours of continuous monster grinding, White Night had already reached Level 65!

This leveling speed was simply unbelievable!

As his level increased, White Night's various attributes also soared!

Especially his main attribute—Strength—which had reached 820 points!

With such a high Strength attribute, White Night could now shatter mountains and split rocks with his bare hands!

Immediately after.

When he saw the new golden skill added to his skill list, White Night's eyes instantly lit up.

He had awakened his first Ultimate Skill!

[Ultimate Skill - Berserker]: Consumes 30% of maximum mana. For 5 minutes, all attributes increase by 200%, and immune to all control effects below Lv5!

(Note: Control and purification skills in the game have levels, ranging from 1 to 12!)

This was definitely a powerful ultimate skill, capable of changing the tide of battle at critical moments!

...White Night's face showed joy and satisfaction.

Then, he reached out and grasped the Bronze-grade treasure chest, silently thinking “Open.”

The treasure chest opened in response, and a black stream of light flew out, landing in his hand, transforming into a long blade.

He focused and examined the blade's attributes:

[ink shadow long blade]

Grade: Bronze

Effect: Increases Strength by 100; Increases physical damage dealt by 10%!

Type: Weapon (Warrior Exclusive)

...White Night sighed with emotion. The attributes of this blade far surpassed ordinary Bronze-grade weapons; it was definitely a top-tier Bronze-grade weapon!

With it, his attack power would be significantly enhanced!

Especially when using skills like Gale Slash, the effect would also be greatly improved!

Next, White Night called up his equipment interface, removed his brave gauntlets, and equipped the ink shadow long blade.

The moment he equipped the new gear, a pure energy surged from the long blade into his body, flowing through his limbs and bones, causing him to tremble.

A flash of light in his hand, and a jet-black long blade appeared in his palm. The blade was smooth as a mirror, exuding a chilling aura.

With this new weapon, White Night's combat power received a considerable boost.

He could clearly feel that each of his slashes was faster and more powerful than before!

...Then, just as White Night was about to seize the time to delve deeper into the forest to level up, aiming to rush straight to Level 99 to unlock the class change quest.

Suddenly, intense sounds of battle, mixed with human shouts and the roars of Demon Wolves, came from a distant direction.

Although the distance was great, White Night's perception was extremely keen at this moment, and he easily caught the commotion there.

The next moment, he tapped his toe on the ground, his figure shooting out like an arrow from a bowstring towards that direction.

The ink shadow long blade left a black afterimage behind him.

Upon arriving at the scene, White Night saw several Professionals being besieged by over a dozen Demon Wolves. Their situation was extremely perilous; they already had many wounds on their bodies, and their aura was somewhat chaotic.

White Night's eyes lit up. So many Demon Wolves would allow him to quickly gain experience, saving him a lot of effort in finding monsters.

Thus, to the horrified gazes of the Professionals, White Night suddenly appeared like a divine warrior descending from the heavens. Wielding a black long blade, his figure weaved through the wolf pack!

Blade light flashed, and the [Gale Slash] skill was continuously activated. Each strike precisely hit the Demon Wolves' vital points, and in just a few moves, all dozen or so Demon Wolves were slain!

Watching White Night's murderous yet composed back, everyone was momentarily stunned!

They couldn't believe that the Demon Wolves, which had just driven them to despair, were so easily defeated by the other party.

Then, golden light continuously shimmered around White Night, dazzling and more frequent than any previous level-up.

Above his head, one jumping level number after another kept appearing:

Lv69

Lv70

Lv71

...The golden light continued for a while before gradually fading, his level finally stopping at Lv78!

“As my level increases, the experience needed to level up also increases. To maintain this rapid leveling, I need to find higher-level monsters...”

White Night thought to himself.

Behind him, several Professionals witnessed this scene.

Everyone's hearts were once again greatly shaken, filled with excitement, and their faces were etched with disbelief.

One of them stammered, “7... 78?! How is that possible! Am I seeing things?!”

...
