Chapter 1400: Strong Enemy

Only Su Xiao and Bark were left in the room. Su Xiao had just improved his Qing Gang Ying ability, but he didn't have time to check it, but he personally experienced the changes in the Qing Gang Ying energy in his body.

Su Xiao and Bark looked at each other. Although they hadn't fought yet, he already felt the pressure brought by the enemy.

The Apostle's Eye floated into mid-air and began to detect Bark's information.

【Comparing the intelligence attributes of both sides... Comparison complete, our intelligence attribute is 2.4 times that of the enemy, obtaining 100% of the enemy's information.】

Information is as follows:

Name: Bark

Category: Half-human/Divine Art Modification.

Health: 100%

Mana: 1760 points

Strength: 98 (Real Attribute)

Agility: 90

Stamina: 95 (Real Attribute)

Intelligence: 37

Charisma: 14

Skill 1, Divine Punishment Physique (Passive LV. 55): Health +8000 points, Physical Defense +60 points, damage taken reduced by 25%, pain perception reduced by 60%, immune to charm, mental induction, and other mental control abilities (can only immune control effects derived from real intelligence attributes below 99 points).

Skill 2, Axe Master (Passive LV. 49): Increases axe weapon attack power by 252%, axe weapon usage skills greatly improved, and comes with shock, strong knockback effects. If strength attribute is higher than the enemy, there is a 30% chance to break the block. After breaking the enemy's block, the damage caused this time is increased by 50%, and an additional 270 points of visceral shock damage is attached.

Skill 3, Logger (Active LV. 40): Fully hack out three axes, each attack attached with Strength Attribute x 0.8 real damage.

Skill 4, Bite (Active LV. 40): When Bark is in close combat with the enemy, he will take the opportunity to use his Wenluo steel sharp teeth to bite at the enemy's face. If bitten, a Strength and Stamina attribute judgment will be performed. If the judgment passes, the face will suffer bite injuries. If the judgment fails, the skull will be bitten, triggering an instant death judgment (if health is higher than 30%, the instant death judgment is exempted).

Skill 5, Chew Wood (Active LV. 39): After Bark eats wood, he will recover 2% of his health every second. This skill can be used once every half hour, recovering up to 75% of health in a single use.

Skill 6, Rotating Slash Axe (Exclusive Ability LV. 21): Bark throws the logging axe in his hand, performing two-stage attacks of throwing and rotating. If hit by the thrown logging axe, the target is stunned for 0.2–1.5 seconds. If hit by the rotating axe from behind, the target enters a bleeding state, losing 80 health points per second. The bleeding effect lasts for 30 seconds. If bandaging, treatment, etc., are performed, the bleeding damage and duration will be greatly reduced.

Quickly checking Bark's attributes, Su Xiao's eyes narrowed. Although this guy didn't have many abilities, they were exceptionally fierce. The Axe Master (Passive LV. 49) alone was enough to explain the strength of this sturdy man.

More importantly, this guy's strength attribute was as high as 98 points. Although Su Xiao had the bonus of the Hunter Set, his strength attribute was 94 points. If combat experience and skills were similar, the gap of 4 strength attributes would be very obvious.

Bark took a puff of the cigar, the sparks on the cigar butt lit up, and the cigar burned into ash at a speed visible to the naked eye. His round belly bulged like a leather ball.

"Pfft!"

Bark spat out the cigar in his mouth, and a large amount of smoke sprayed forward from his mouth. Su Xiao had only seen this amount of smoke spraying on tractors in the countryside.

With a whistling sound, the cigar butt, which was only five centimeters long, attacked Su Xiao's face. He tilted his head to dodge, and the cigar butt buried itself into the wall behind, leaving a round hole the thickness of a finger.

Just after dodging the cigar, a thick smoke surged toward Su Xiao. At the same time, Bark's legs bent, and the ground under his feet crumbled inch by inch.

Boom!

Bark was like a cannonball leaving the chamber, rushing straight toward Su Xiao. Although he leaped, he was only half a meter from the ground, and his feet could step on the ground at any time. This guy's combat experience was very rich, knowing that he couldn't lose his center of gravity when facing an enemy.

Su Xiao slashed forward with his long sword, the blade pressure dispersing the smoke. Just as the smoke dispersed, a bright sharp axe slashed toward his head.

An energy shield appeared in front of Su Xiao, and his body tilted to the side.

With a crisp crack, the energy shield with 200 points of strength was shattered by Bark, and the axe in his hand slashed past Su Xiao's shoulder.

Just as the short axe slashed down, Su Xiao, whose body was bent, slashed diagonally with his sword, slashing toward Bark's side neck.

With a crisp clang, sparks flew, and Bark's other short axe blocked Zhan Long Shan, with a notch appearing on the axe blade.

The axe was notched, and anger surged in Bark's heart, but his expression was very calm, not affected by the anger in his heart.

A huge force came from Zhan Long Shan, and the ground under Su Xiao's feet shattered, with a few pebbles crumbling up.

Bark's peripheral vision swept over these few pebbles, and the hand that missed the slash swung another axe, hacking at Su Xiao's head.

At this moment, the Zhan Long Shan in Su Xiao's hand was parrying the other short axe in Bark's hand. He kicked up with his right foot, precisely kicking Bark's wrist.

Bang!

A blast wave spread, and the wine bottles on the wooden shelf to the side fell, shattering into glass shards.

After his wrist took a kick, Bark took a step back. Just as he retreated, the foot wearing the brown leather boot hooked, kicking toward the pebble that had flown up earlier.

The pebble flew straight toward Su Xiao's chin. The speed was so fast that it broke several ripples in the air.

Su Xiao leaned back, and at the same time tilted his head back. A stinging pain came from his side jaw. The pebble flew past, and with a boom on the ceiling, a pebble the size of a fingernail actually punched a hole nearly two meters in size on the ceiling.

Just as Su Xiao leaned back, Bark's head tilted, and he bit toward Zhan Long Shan, which was parrying with the short axe.

Just as Bark was about to bite Zhan Long Shan, the long sword tilted to one side. If he dared to continue biting, Su Xiao's upward slash would be able to cut open his head.

But at this moment, Bark's foot had already kicked toward Su Xiao's lower abdomen.

Bang!

Su Xiao flew backward urgently, his lower abdomen wrapped in an energy shield layer, like a layer of crystal.

Blood sprayed in mid-air, and a large amount of yellow broken hair drifted down. Bark's left face was a bloody mess, the skin on his face was cut open, and the wound was extremely smooth.

Qing Gang Ying energy entered Bark's body. He just moved his neck, not caring about the pain in his body at all.

Gravel splashed, and Su Xiao hit the wall directly. His lower abdomen was burning with pain, and before he could catch his breath, a short axe slashed toward his head.

Boom, boom, boom...

Blade marks appeared on the wall. Bark swung left and right, and the two short axes slashed out a large number of afterimages. Gravel and dust surged.

Su Xiao leaped to the right one after another. As long as he stopped for 0.1 seconds, the short axe would land on his head.

Hum~

After a faint engine sound, Su Xiao, who was leaping continuously, stopped. He kicked sideways toward Bark's head.

Bark's eyes were angry, and he exerted force with his feet, his legs sinking directly into the ground.

With a swish, Su Xiao's side kick swept over Bark's head. The powerful impact made Bark's ears buzz, and his left ear went deaf for a short time.

This was not the most fatal. After Su Xiao kicked, the long sword in his hand had already stabbed toward Bark's chin.

Bark had just leaned down to dodge Su Xiao's kick, and now that this sword stabbed over, he had nowhere to hide. Su Xiao clearly had the advantage in speed.

Knowing that he couldn't dodge, Bark simply didn't dodge. The two short axes in his hands raised, hacking from top to bottom toward Su Xiao's head.

The short axe fell, and Su Xiao suddenly disappeared in front of Bark. A stinging pain came from Bark's back heart.

Pfft!

The long sword pierced through the chest, the blade tip stained with blood, directly piercing Bark's heart. Su Xiao originally wanted to cut off the enemy's head, but the short axe in the opponent's hand was raised above his head. If he slashed the neck, there was a high possibility of being blocked.

Heart pierced, Bark smiled, revealing those metal fangs. He hadn't fought so happily with an enemy for a long time.

"You, are definitely not White Ghost."

Bark used the two short axes in his hands to fork Zhan Long Shan, so as not to let the long sword cause secondary damage in his body. ===== CHAPTER 1401 =====
